I took my time to go through everything you listed, and it was nice to see them gradually getting closer. Excuse me if I ramble now since I have so many thoughts. When looking through the birthday cards, I was actually reminded that Ichika’s birthday is coming up! I checked her previous card and saw that Mafuyu did send a message, so I wonder if she will now? If so, what voice will she go with? Another thing I was reminded of with the birthday cards is an interesting detail in Mafuyu’s. Kanade apologizes to her privately for possibly revealing too much when advising Ichika and Honami what to get. It’s wild because they’re so close to Kanade and Mafuyu, and I’m so curious about how they’ll react to Mafuyu’s true self. They’re like at the edge. So many hints like how Mafuyu has shared a niigo video, and they know she’s the lyricist. Ichika understands the responsibility of being class representative (though she didn’t necessarily strive for the position). Honami parallels her as an honor student. They’ve had an event together! I’m gnawing- (1/)
PLEASE TELL ME YOU GOT THE LAST ASK BECAUSE MY INTERNET WAS LAGGING. But continuing on from there, reading the Draw Your Bow card stories again reminded me of why I’m saving for that event haha. I like to think it’s a nice memory for Mafuyu, and I hope she can sincerely open up to Shizuku one day. Random but I don’t know how likely this is, but I watched a prsk drum cover earlier and thought it’d be neat if somehow after Honami spots Mafuyu at Kanade’s (if it happens), she can improvise some spontaneous drumming with stuff around the kitchen. Her drumming has been described as calming before so you know? Is this a silly thought haha (2/2)
Hrhrhr, yknow, I do still have submissions on, if that's easier?
Ichika I imagine will get a well-wishing from Mafuyu, as both Ena and Mizuki came out to celebrate An, even with all that's going on. She just may not be in attendance for any direct celebrations, but they do share time together, as both class reps and with the results of Intersecting Melodies, as you say.
Mafuyu's circle of acquaintances has definitely expanded, even as it's only currently Niigo in the know, so chances are it'll take folk by surprise, but I'm sure they'll react kindly. They're on the path of becoming friends who know her and that she can rely on, even if right now I'd probably say it's still at a point where Mafuyu wouldn't be leaning on them. As is they're at a point where they have Maf go to Sekai when Honami comes over, but I do think we'll see more of Mafuyu interacting with the other group's music/performances, as we've gotten a bit before (her finding street music a bit loud but not hating it, WxS shows, stuff at festivals).
While I maybe don't see Honami doing just a drumming session for Maf at Kanade's house, I could see leo/need's music becoming a boon to Mafuyu. VBS is a little odd one out since they're more focused on creating an event, but every other groups share a commonality in their desire to reach people's hearts, give em hope. I think it would be a fun thing to have more music mixing. Actually, I'm reminded that in Shizuku's cards there's interaction with her and Mizuki that has the latter wondering about if Kanade could write an idol song (I'd imagine a ballad), then a collab could be possible, and given the writers' known propensity for setting up little interactions in the cards, I'm hopeful. it comes from my idolmaster days but i could absolutely see something akin to nemurihime in feel being thrown to the MMJ girls.
but circling back to the overall, i'm sure we'll see more of mafuyu opening up, the question is just of how, and i'm excited for the answers colopale has set up to provide~
