(In the school literature clubroom...) Monika: "Okay, now we just need MC." Natsuki: "He's always late. Typical." Sayori: "Don't be so hard on him, Natsuki. Maybe he got caught up with something." Yuri: "I'm sure he'll be here soon. Let's just start the meeting without him for now." Monika: "Alright, let's get started then. We have a few new members joining us today, so let's make them feel welcome." Natsuki: "Yeah, whatever. Also, hopefully my water doesn't start breaking before he arrives." Sayori: "Natsuki, seriously?" Natsuki: "No, seriously - I'm still waiting for two more months to go until my due date. But I swear this baby is so active, it feels like it could come any minute now!" Yuri: "Congratulations, Natsuki! That's so exciting. I'm sure MC will be thrilled to hear the news when he arrives." Monika: "Yes, I'm sure he'll be excited for you as well. In the meantime, let's focus on welcoming our new members and discussing our plans for the next club event."
