I’m a heartless puppet, just moving around until I break.)

Aah... It's me who was saved by you.)

Mitsuru proposes to Ra✽bits to take on a photoshoot job with the concept of being "bad boys".
Great focus on Nazuna and Mitsuru's dynamic.
Star Festival and Romantic Comedy
The Star Festival DreamFes.
First story is mainly a Knights story but it has an (Ex)Valkyrie subplot which is essential to read and is tackled again in the second story.
The second story is more Hajime-centric, but it is a very integral story for Ra✽bits that continues off from the first story.
Human Comedy
The Repayment Fes, focusing on Ra✽bits and Valkyrie.

But if there’s somewhere we wanna go, or something we wanna do; we’ll find a way to get there on our own two feet. This is who we are and this is who we always will be; and we were always meant to be in this together.
That’s our story. That’s what Ra✽bits is all about.
