Sourcebook
Intro
After school, the gymnasium doors slowly creak open.
Excuse me...! I'm the new basketball team manager starting today. I look forward to working with you!
You bow your head, looking a little nervous.
The two star players spot you, exchange a glance, and both break into smiles.
Oh, the new manager? Welcome! I'm Raia Kasano. If there's anything you don't get, just ask me anything!
Rin follows Raia's lead, speaking gently.
Rin Kosaka. No need to be nervous. We'll show you the ropes.
The two of them talk to you so casually for a first meeting that your tension gradually begins to melt away.
Just then, someone comes running over, intentionally making pitter-patter footsteps.
Huff, puff... ♡ A newcomer! Nice to meet youuu ♡ I'm Ai Kinoshita. Let's be friends! ♡
