'''Ibara Mayaka:''' Uuhhh...... Unhhh...... Ahh, I'm so nervous, what should I do?

'''Chitanda Eru:''' He will most likely accept it.

'''Mayaka:''' Chii-chan, that would be good, but...... if only......

'''Chitanda:''' But Mayaka-san, was there any other reason why Fukube-san did not accept your chocolate last year?

'''Mayaka:''' Any other reason? What do you mean?

'''Chitanda:''' There is the possibility that it was Fukube-san's etiquette regarding chocolate. I mean, don't you find it strange? If I was Fukube-san, I would have accepted the chocolate at that point in time last year.

'''Mayaka:''' Really?

'''Chitanda:''' Yes, Mayaka-san is so cute, so there is no reason to refuse.

'''Mayaka:''' Er, t-thanks, but......

'''Chitanda:''' Fukube-san is a complicated person, so I think he has all sorts of inner conflicts, but I still cannot comprehend. To reject a confession from such an adorable, lovable girl!

'''Mayaka:''' Ah, thanks, I suppose?

'''Chitanda:''' Moreover, the problem might have been the chocolate itself. If it was some other hand-made gift, Fukube-san would have accepted it without any objection.

'''Mayaka:''' I see...... Some other hand-made gifts, huh.

'''Chitanda:''' According to a relative, boys don't really like sweet things, so you don't have to focus on chocolate. Just like the dog days of summer<ref>The hot, sultry days of summer.</ref>, it is a tradition that someone decided on their own.

'''Mayaka:''' Mm, you're right.

'''Chitanda:''' Moreover, it doesn't even have to be food. As long as you put your heart into it, anything is fine.

'''Mayaka:''' I see.

'''Chitanda:''' Based on what we've just said, let us think of an item that Fukube-san would be happy to receive.

'''Mayaka:''' Uhhh...... Fuku-chan, as you know, is broad-minded and shallow. It's difficult to pin down his preferences.

'''Chitanda:''' What about his hobbies? He likes cycling, right?

'''Mayaka:''' He's quite a fanatic of bicycles.

'''Chitanda:''' Then you should give him a hand-made bicycle!

'''Mayaka:''' Bicycle...... Wouldn't that be too difficult? Of course, there are people who like to collect parts and construct their own bicycle, but......

'''Chitanda:''' Mayaka-san, you don't have to consider if it is possible or not. First, we should think about what would make him happy.

'''Mayaka:''' Ah, hm...... You're right.

'''Chitanda:''' Do you have any other ideas besides a bicycle?

'''Mayaka:''' Let me think...... He has a smartphone, so how about a new cover?

'''Chitanda:''' Good idea! Anything else?

'''Mayaka:''' How about a new drawstring bag?

'''Chitanda:''' That's also a great idea! Any more?

'''Mayaka:''' Uuhhh...... Any more...... I think that's all I have.

'''Chitanda:''' Please think further! We need something that can immediately take a tight hold on Fukube-san's heart!

'''Mayaka:''' Even if you say that, I can't think of anything else.

'''Chitanda:''' Then, let us consider from Fukube-san's way of living. Is there anything that Fukube-san secretly hopes for somewhere in his heart?

'''Mayaka:''' Fuku-chan's hopes? Hmm...... come to think of it, he seemed to want to beat Oreki-san during the Cultural Festival.

'''Chitanda:''' What do you mean?

'''Mayaka:''' Fuku-chan has been secretly minding about not being able to hold up to Oreki. He can't stand always looking up. I understand the feeling.

'''Chitanda:''' If that is so...... then all we have to do is to prepare an item that will help him defeat Oreki, right?

'''Mayaka:''' Really?

'''Chitanda:''' If that's the case, then we will have to prepare...... platform shoes! Give Fukube-san a pair of platform shoes and win over his heart! 

'''Mayaka:''' No, that's not it! Definitely not it!

'''Chitanda:''' You think so? Fukube-san loses to Oreki-san only in terms of height, right?

'''Mayaka:''' Chii-chan, that's some really mean things you're saying!

'''Chitanda:''' Haah...... I suppose so. I apologize. Should we consider his academic results, then? If you could produce a set of reference books and practice books by hand, and give that to Fukube-san......

'''Mayaka:''' I also don't think that's right. Anyway, if reference books can raise grades, no one would have a hard time with their studies.

'''Chitanda:''' Indeed. Then it should be something for fighting power. Make some brass knuckles and give them to Fukube-san!

'''Mayaka:''' As I said, Fuku-chan isn't interested in that kind of thing!

'''Chitanda:''' Then how about a hand-made spiked bat?

'''Mayaka:''' That's wrong.

'''Chitanda:''' Hand-made illegal firearms.

'''Mayaka:''' Why does the killing potential keep increasing?!

'''Chitanda:''' Hand-made nuclear bomb.

'''Mayaka:''' Chii-chan!! Be serious!!!

'''Chitanda:''' Sorry...... I could not think of what areas Fukube-san wanted to beat Oreki-san in......

'''Mayaka:''' Ah...... I'm also confused. What should I give Fuku-chan?

'''Chitanda:''' Then, list down all the things we have talked about in a notebook.

'''Mayaka:''' 'Kay.

'''Chitanda:''' There are ten items including the chocolate. And for some reason, I happen to have a ten-sided die. Roll this.

'''Mayaka:''' Eh? Why do you have an item for TRPG<ref>Tabletop Role Playing Game</ref> enthusiasts?

'''Chitanda:''' When you have a dilemma, dice is the answer. Just roll it.

'''Mayaka:''' Uh, alright. (Rolls die)

'''Chitanda:''' That's decided, then!

'''Mayaka:''' Eh?!

'''Chitanda:''' It's fine. I shall assist you, with the backing of the Chitanda clan.


(School bell rings)

'''Oreki Houtarou:''' The sleet has stopped. I guess I'll go home. Come to think of it, I wonder if Satoshi received chocolate from Ibara.

(Door opens)

'''Chitanda:''' Oreki-san! 

'''Oreki:''' Chitanda?

'''Chitanda:''' Oreki-san, this is terrible!

'''Oreki:''' What happened?

'''Chitanda:''' The nuclear bomb...... Mayaka-san's hand-made nuclear bomb has been stolen!!<ref>A reference to Broken Arrow, a film where terrorists steal nuclear warheads from the U.S. military.</ref>

'''Oreki:''' (Just how should I retort to this statement?!)
