Hi, it's Ruka♪

Today, I was thinking about everyone's outfits for our next shoot.

And this time, I'm taking it seriously.

MixPalette has five different colors, right?

So I don't just want everyone to look cute.

I want each member's personality to shine properly.

First up is Aine.

🩵 Ruka: "Aine should keep that classic cute style."

🩷 Aine: "Classic cute...!"

🩵 Ruka: "But I also want to add a little center-like glamour."

🩷 Aine: "Ehehe... I might get a little nervous!"

🩵 Ruka: "Don't worry. Aine wins the moment she smiles♪"

🩷 Aine: "I-is that a compliment?"

Of course it is.

Aine is cutest when she's just a little shy.

Next is Hinata.

🩵 Ruka: "Hinata should be full of energy!"

🧡 Hinata: "I want something I can run in!"

🩵 Ruka: "It's a photo shoot, so no running."

🧡 Hinata: "Whaaat!?"

🩵 Ruka: "But ease of movement matters too. Something that won't fall apart even if you jump."

🧡 Hinata: "So I can jump!?"

🩵 Ruka: "Not right now."

🧡 Hinata: "Not right now!?"

Hinata will jump the second you look away.

That's just how she is.

Then, Rei.

💙 Rei: "Black is fine for me."

🩵 Ruka: "There it is."

💙 Rei: "What?"

🩵 Ruka: "Not 'black is fine.' You mean 'black is best,' right?"

💙 Rei: "...Well, yes."

🩵 Ruka: "So we'll keep black as the base. But I want a material that shows a little blue when the lights hit it."

💙 Rei: "That's... not bad."

🩵 Ruka: "Right?"

Rei doesn't show it clearly, but I could tell.

She liked it.

And finally, Shizuku.

💜 Shizuku: "What kind of outfit would suit me~?"

🩵 Ruka: "Shizuku should stay elegant, but with just a little sparkle."

💜 Shizuku: "A little sparkle...?"

🩵 Ruka: "Yes. A soft purple that shines gently under the stage lights."

💜 Shizuku: "Ufufu♪ That sounds like magic."

🩵 Ruka: "Exactly! That's the vibe!"

Shizuku is soft and graceful, but she also has a quiet strength.

I want her outfit to show that.

When all the outfit ideas were lined up, I felt pretty satisfied.

Each color stood out.

But together, it still felt like MixPalette.

🩷 Aine: "Ruka, you're amazing!"

🧡 Hinata: "I want to try them all!"

💙 Rei: "The overall balance isn't bad either."

💜 Shizuku: "How wonderful♪"

🩵 Ruka: "Hehe♪ Leave it to me."

And then...

Mashiro spoke from behind me.

🤍 Mashiro: "Ruka."

🩵 Ruka: "Yes?"

🤍 Mashiro: "Everyone's outfits are perfect."

🩵 Ruka: "Right?"

🤍 Mashiro: "By the way..."

🤍 Mashiro: "What about your own outfit?"

🩵 Ruka: "..."

🩷 Aine: "...Oh."

🧡 Hinata: "You forgot, didn't you!?"

💙 Rei: "Just as I thought."

💜 Shizuku: "My, my~"

🩵 Ruka: "...I'll get serious now."

I was so focused on everyone else that I completely forgot about myself.

But, well...

That's kind of like me, right?

Next time, I'll make sure my own outfit is perfectly styled too♪

To Be Continued...
