Any annoyance that Suguru feels when Satoru just grabs her guitar fades quickly; Satoru is talented and incredibly creative, a genius when it comes to music, and Suguru works best when she has someone creative to provide feedback. None of her band members came close to the sort of energy Satoru brought to jamming sessions nor the feedback she really needed.

Not that it matters. A few months of this, and then Satoru would be out of her life again. Working out a song or two, providing some feedback, doing these things a couple of times is fine.

Suguru gets caught up in working out the song, throwing in her own ideas on it and weaving together the suggestions Satoru has, chiming in with the intent and meaning of the song, both incredibly important to her. She takes the guitar back, running her hand along the body as though soothing it, and plays through the refrain again.

"Where do you think you should come in?" she asks, jotting down their notes on a scratch piece of paper she'll put into her notes later. "This might actually work better as a duet, not just backing on the refrain." Much as it galls her. If the song is a hit and they have to do anything with it after this, she'll have to continue seeing Satoru. Working with her.
