[Well, with no luck on the previous attempt (her fault for thinking of it so late), and with time running out, Meryl takes her snooping to the next level. She scrolls back through the old SLEEPR log until - bingo.
He has a problem that she can't quite solve, but she hopes she's got an elegant solution in mind. One trip to Built by Otto and a handful of shards later, a gift is presented to one Samatoki Aohitsugi. It's a carefully carved Microphone. It's non-functional, given the fact that it's wood as opposed to anything metal and electrical. Still, she'd been very careful in picking out the wood used, so that the handfeel and weight is at least mildly mildly similar to that of a traditional microphone.
A note is included as well, from one stranger to another.]
Samatoki Aohitsugi,
Apologies if this gift is too presumptuous. Some digging showed that you were lacking your mic and struggling with your ability to perform. While it won't quite perform as intended, it will hopefully give you at least a little more confidence to continue. I hope to hear your vocal prowess in the future!
( He's floored by it, honestly; it hadn't been on top of his priority list to get back to performing, but it's been closer in terms of his pure desires. It feels weird to not be able to perform with Jyuto and Riou, but what's the likelihood they'll appear here anyway?
He sends back a message over the network. )
Hey, thank you for this. I've been itching to get back onstage and now it feels a little more doable.
