RIN: Hey, Rei. REI: What is it, Rin-san? RIN: I’ve been wondering for some time now… Why are you only able to swim butterfly? REI: [stabbed through the heart] RIN: How come it hasn’t even occurred to anyone here that they teach you? If you’re given a proper swimming lesson, you ought to be able to swim like all normal folk. REI: [stab stab] RIN: Even kindergartners these days can do the crawl, at least. REI: [stab stab stab] RIN: I mean, heh, only being able to swim butterfly doesn’t even make sense logically. REI: [screams] What is your problem?! You just keep up the criticism, don’t you! Without even knowing how I feel! I endeavored with my utmost efforts! Haruka-senpai and the others taught me in great detail! But still, I couldn’t swim! That’s right, I can only swim butterfly, so what?! Humans are originally creatures that evolved out of the water so that they can live on land anyway! You don’t understand what it’s like not being able to swim! You don’t understand what it feels like, sinking like a rock in water every time!! RIN: Okay, okay, I’m sorry! In that case, I’ll teach you. REI: ?! RIN: What’s the matter? Don’t you want to be able to swim? REI: …I—I… do… RIN: Then follow me. REI: …! Okay!

x x x

RIN: I guess we’ll start by teaching you freestyle— the crawl, first. REI: Haruka-senpai taught me the crawl before, but I couldn’t do it… RIN: Heh. My teaching style isn’t mild like Haru’s. I won’t show mercy. You better be ready. REI: Okay! RIN: Listen up, Rei. The crawl is the foundation of all swimming styles. Master it and you’ll be able to swim the other strokes. REI: I’ll be able to swim backstroke and breast stroke…! RIN: This goes for all of the strokes, but what’s most important is how you move your hips. Your hips are your core consideration for how you kick, stroke, breathe, and all that. Here’s how it’ll look illustrated. [drawing] See how easy it is when I draw lines here from your hip in connection to the movement of your hands and kick? This part of the straight stroke is the part that enters into the water. In the theoretical sense, it has the least resistance and thus— REI: This is all so easy to understand! It’s very different from the way Haruka-senpai taught me. RIN: What did Haru tell you? REI: “Fly with my heart.” RIN: I see the guy’s still using abstract descriptions. Heh. I’m different from the likes of Haru. I’ll be sure to teach you in a way that fits your style. I’ll show you the difference between him and me. REI: O—Okay! RIN: All right then, let’s go! [RIN and REI jump into the water] RIN: Ready… REI: [breathes in] RIN: Go! REI: [goes underwater] RIN: … REI: … RIN: Why is he sinking? REI: [surfaces] …Why? RIN: That’s what I want to know!! Don’t tell me you only call yourself a logical thinker when you really aren’t and just make excuses later to justify yourself?! REI: N—Not at all! I am, without any doubt, all about logic! RIN: Then try it again. Your hands go like this! Your legs go like this! Your hips go like this! REI: Okay! RIN: Ready… REI: [breathes in] RIN: Go! REI: [goes underwater] RIN: … REI: … RIN: [groans] REI: [surfaces and sighs calmly] It appears that I was born to be a butterfly swimmer. This is a sign from god that I improve solely on my butterfly stroke and that I must not be distracted by learning other strokes. RIN: Don’t talk about god if you call yourself a logical thinker. REI: [ignoring RIN] There’s no other choice, I will have to spare learning freestyle for today. From here on, I will improve my butterfly! And then, with butterfly, I will take over the world! HAHAHAHAHA! RIN: …Sure, if that’s what you want. REI: But there is one thing I lack before I can do so. Rin-san, I want you to teach it to me. RIN: What is it? The technique for butterfly? REI: No! I want you to tell me an example of a good sea creature that I can go by! RIN: Huh? REI: You know! Like how Haruka-senpai is a dolphin, you’re a shark, Nagisa-kun is a penguin, and Makoto-senpai is the king of the sea, the orca! Even though he swims backstroke, he’s an orca! Backstroke has absolutely no relation to how the orca swims! If you were to give an example of backstroke swimming, wouldn’t you use the otter?! But instead, he’s an orca!!! And, for some reason, I alone am a butterfly. A normal insect named exactly after the name of the stroke! There’s nothing witty about that at all!!! RIN: Tch, you’re complaining about this now? What a pain in the ass. REI: So, please tell me an example of a sea creature that befits me! RIN: Then… how about the flying fish? When it spreads its fins and flies over the water surface, it brings to mind the butterfly stroke. Its speed mid-air also ranges from 50 to 70 km/hr. It’s pretty fast. REI: No! The flying fish only goes its fastest above water when it’s escaping from predators! Running away quickly from danger isn’t beautiful at all! RIN: Then how about the tuna? It’s big, it’s fast. It eats flying fish. REI: Tuna… Let’s try that out for a bit. I will swim butterfly while I leave you to come up with the description. Here I go. [REI begins to swim butterfly] RIN: That swimming… That speed that keeps everyone else at bay! He rides on Japan’s current while migrating wildly through the Pacific Ocean, like the stroke of the tuna! REI: [surfaces] RIN: How was that? REI: It sounds cool, but doesn’t make sense at all when you really think about it! Besides, when people think of tuna, the first image that comes to mind is a fish that’s slow to respond and lazes around. It’s not beautiful! Isn’t there a better example I can use? RIN: How about the yellowtail then? REI: Yellowtail? RIN: Yeah. It’s a fish that represents different stages of growth. It’ll be the image of your future, as someone who grows by starting off as dead weight but moving on to swimming in the prefecturals, then in the nationals, and then on to the world. Coolest example ever, don’t you think? REI: [laughs, most pleased] Very well! It’s perfect for me! Okay then… here I go! [REI begins to swim butterfly] RIN: That swimming… It’s like the stroke of one who is wildly maturing from a clueless small fish into a young yellowtail, then into an adolescent yellowtail… then into a fully grown yellowtail that’s the fattest it can be! REI: [surfaces] You’re talking like you’re looking at the lineup of sushi dishes in a conveyor belt restaurant!!! RIN: Oh my god, you’re such a pain! REI: Besides, the pronunciation for adult yellowtail sounds like “BURITT!” like some globby thing is sticking out, and that isn’t beautiful at all!! RIN: Oh, for chrissakes! Fine, I got it. As long as it sounds cool, that’s what you want, right? Then Geppetto. How about that? REI: Geppetto? What’s that? RIN: It’s the name of an awesome guy who got swallowed by a whale and survived inside its stomach. REI: That’s the name of the grandpa who made the puppet with the nose that grows longer whenever it lies! It has nothing to do with swimming!! Just forget it! [sighs] Instead, there’s one last thing I want you to tell me. RIN: Hm? What, all you’ve been doing is complain at me! I’m fresh out of ideas, okay? REI: You and me. What is our relationship? RIN: H—Huh? REI: Rin-san. Even though you’re on a different team, you share a deep bond of friendship with Haruka-senpai and the others. Among this group, I hold the position that you once had, and like you, I swim butterfly. RIN: … REI: Are you and I rivals? Or are we friends? RIN: …Heh. Rivals? Friends? That isn’t for me to tell you. The one who decides that, Rei… is you.

———————————————— FOOTNOTE In case it isn’t clear, the Japanese yellowtail is called by different names as it grows larger. The “inada” is yellowtail that is 40cm long (translated here as “very young yellowtail”), the “hamachi” is yellowtail that is 60cm long (translated here as “adolescent yellowtail”), and the “buri” is fully fledged yellowtail that is over 80cm long (translated here as “fully grown”).

This was too much fun to do. Thank you for the headcanon~

I’ll compile these tracks into a single post with the associated picture in my official blog. For now, check my Free! Illustration Works tag for updates!

Track 10: The Sweet Good Morning Contest! NAGISA: Hmm, so this is what’s trendy these days, huh? HARU: What’s trendy? NAGISA: Haru-chan, Mako-chan, Rin-chan, and Rei-chan! MAKOTO: Nagisa, what are you reading? NAGISA: It’s a women’s magazine I found in the clubroom. Club can’t start until the rest of you get here, so I started reading it to pass the time. It’s actually pretty interesting. MAKOTO: Could it belong to Gou-chan? RIN: Hm? Oh, yeah, I saw her reading that the other day. NAGISA: I found this really fun article inside this magazine. [flips] This one! Read this one, guys! MAKOTO: Let’s see here… “Video Games Aimed At Girls Are Popular Among Women”? HARU: Video games aimed at girls? REI: Oh, I saw this on TV the other day. It means love simulation games and the like that are targeted to the female audience. So, what about it? NAGISA: The reason why girls love these sorts of games is because they get to listen to sweet words from a good-looking character, so… REI: …Nagisa-kun’s eyes are shining… RIN: I have nothing but bad feelings about this. NAGISA: If it was up to you guys, what words would you say? REI: …I knew it… NAGISA: AND SO! We will now hold a contest on who can say the sweetest good morning greeting! HARU: Too much trouble. RIN: No fucking way. NAGISA: YOU TWO! This is a contest with your manly pride on the line! Who among us will speak the sweetest words?! RIN: …A contest, you say? NAGISA: Haru-chan, Rin-chan. You’re not telling me that you would do something so indistinct such as losing without even putting up a fight, now, are you?! HARU: …! RIN: …Tch! Fine! We just have to do it, right, Nagisa? If we’re gonna do it, then I’m gonna win. HARU: Don’t cry even if you lose, Rin. RIN: I won’t cry. We’ll verse each other to see who’s the sweetest, Haru. NAGISA: Nothing less from you two! MAKOTO: …Those two are so easy to manipulate… REI: …Yes… NAGISA: Then let’s start with Haru-chan! 3, 2, 1… 9! HARU: It’s morning. Get up. NAGISA: E-Eh? T-That’s it? HARU: Yeah. RIN: That’s how you always act. NAGISA: That wasn’t sweet at all, Haru-chan! You have to at least say that you’re going to feed them breakfast! One more chance! 3, 2, 1… 9! HARU: It’s morning. Get up. Hm? Yeah, I’m grilling mackerel right now. What? …It’s fine, mackerel is the perfect nutritional source. Come on, get up already. Breakfast is getting cold. Or is this because you want me to feed it to you? NAGISA: …H-Haru-chan is being sweet! MAKOTO: It is sweet coming from Haru, but… hmm, besides the part where he said he’d feed you, I got the sense that he acted the way he always does. NAGISA: You’re next then, Mako-chan! 3, 2, 1… 9! MAKOTO: Ehhh, me?! Uhmm… Good morning! Eh? Are you still sleepy? Come on, you’re gonna be late. Hm? Five more minutes? There you go saying that again. You went right back to sleep after saying that yesterday and the day before that too! Using that sort of voice on me isn’t going to work. I’m not listening today. Come on, hurry up and get changed. Let’s go together. REI: [gulps] As expected of Makoto-senpai… He sweetly reprimands! A very formidable opponent… NAGISA: Then I guess I’ll go next. Let’s see… Good morning! Come on, wake up! Hey, no, you’re not allowed to dig back under your covers! The weather is great outside today, don’t spend it away sleeping! Hey, if you’re going to keep being selfish like that, I’m going in and sleeping with you! [giggles] I’m just kidding. Don’t get so flustered. Come on, come out of bed. HARU: You sound so mature when you speak calmly like that, Nagisa. NAGISA: You make it sound like I’m never calm! HARU: You’re not. NAGISA: Falsehoods! You’re next, Rei-chan! 3, 2, 1… 9! REI: Good morning. Hurry up and get out of bed. You appear quite sleepy. I bet you stayed up late again, didn’t you. [sighs] What a hopeless person you are. You’ll keep feeling fatigued if you keep up your lack of sleep. Come, out of bed now. If you get yourself properly ready for the day, I might even give you a reward. RIN: Get a load of this guy looking down on them… NAGISA: But I think it would make some girls squeal. You’re last, Rin-chan! 3, 2, 1… 9! RIN: Hey, get up already. It’s morning. Geez… Why do I have to keep waking you up every morning? Huh? What? Because despite all my complaints, I still do it? Hey, it’s not voluntary! It’s boring when you’re not awake. …Ugh, nothing! Come on, if you don’t hurry up, I’m leaving you behind. ——How was that, Haru?! HARU: That’s how you always act. It wasn’t sweet at all. RIN: Huh?! I was way sweeter than you! Who was sweeter, me or Haru, Nagisa? REI: Well, Nagisa-kun? How do you intend to choose? NAGISA: Oh… yeah, it’s pretty difficult to judge… Hmm… Why don’t we get Gou-chan to judge? RIN: I’m not speaking like that in front of my sister!
