First, Hisui turns to Kogeki. "It's alright. I will forgive the outburst this one time."
And then she turns to Tsubasa and the new girl. "Yes, it is! Welcome, little sister," she says, smiling brightly at seeing another Utaku taking up her chosen art. "We were, in fact, about to start. Please, have a seat."

Utaku Hitomi bows her head and finds herself a seat. She glances briefly at Kogeki. Nibbling a bit on her bottom lip. She turns and smiles at the elder Utaku. "I'm glad I made it before it got to late then... Utaku-Sama."

He gives a small nod to the teacher as he takes his seat, giving a small sheepish wave to the other Unicorn. He was in shame penance mode but trying to be attentive.

"Now, for those among you who weren't present for last class---" Thank the Fortunes for small mercies. "---Gyushi-san took copious notes last time. Feel free to ask him if you feel they are required."
"For today, we'll be moving on to vocalization exercises," she announces. "The voice is a product of the body, of the muscles. And like any muscle, it needs to be prepared before use. As I'm sure Yasuki-san can readily attest to."
"Different exercises can help you work on different aspects of your voice. For instance, let's start with what's known as the lip buzz. To do this, you vibrate your lips together. You don't need to have a pitch at the start. Do this for three to five seconds, and then add a pitch of your choosing for another three to five. This helps you better manage your breathing, so you're not short of breath in the middle of a crucial part of the song."
She proceeds to demonstrate twice, to encourage the students to make their own attempts.

Kogeki takes some time to lip buzz, his own breath control being one of his main weaknesses but after a while he is able to get a weak lip buzz going.

She notuced Kogeki struggling a bit and offered some advice. "Try to relax a little. Your voice wont come out nicely if you are too tense. Relax and have some fun with it loke this." She begun to buzz her lips repeating lines from Gundam build fighters.

Tsubasa followed along with the exercise and when she noticed Kogeki struggling she prepared to get up and move over to help him but Mayumi got there first. So she continued on her own, faithfully following the lesson. It was always good to get back to basics after all.

Kogeki nods and tries to relax, despite being a hardworking sort. Slowly he begins to get more of a buzz going though he is still having some trouble since he seems to be breathing mostly with his chest.

Hisui decides to step in, placing a hand so it hovers over the young man's stomach.
"Much like many other things involving the voice, it has to come from here," she says, instructing rather than judgmental.
