Utaha and Eriri arrive: with their involvement in Fields Chronicle finished, the pair now have spare time to lend a hand and have been dropping by daily, much to Izumi and Michiru’s irritation. The pair kiss, and promise to see their latest game through properly. Realising the depth of everything she’s done for him, no matter how difficult things became, Tomoya confesses his feelings to Megumi, and she accepts, stating that she’d long been in love with him. Upon returning home, he runs into Megumi and learns about how she feels. Tomoya’s departure confirms to Utaha and Eriri where his heart truly lies. At the end of these two weeks, Tomoya manages to help Utaha and Eriri stay on course to meet their deadline. One evening, when conversation between Michiru and Izumi turn towards Tomoya, Megumi’s reaction to things speaks volumes that she has come to care deeply for Tomoya, to the point where she feels jealousy at the suggestion that others might be interested in him. Feeling abandoned, an irate Megumi decides to continue on their work in his absence. When Tomoya learns of their plight, he takes two weeks off classes to help them and successfully negotiates for a compromise: two more weeks to add the core of Utaha and Eriri’s content while removing the rest of the material. Akane’s hospitalisation leaves Utaha and Eriri in a bind, as the project manager above Akane is intent on moving ahead with testing and release of Fields Chronicle, a triple-A title, to meet the release deadline: the pair had been working on the game’s story and artwork, but this change threatens to strike their contributions from the final product. Tomoya celebrates Megumi’s belated birthday with Michiru and Izumi.
However, when Akane succumbs to a stroke and is hospitalised, those plans are cancelled.
When Megumi’s birthday arrives, Tomoya promises to spend the day with her, both to gain inspiration for the game they’re working on and to be with her. He meets up with Akane Kōsaka while attempting to visit Utaha, who suggests to him that he make the romance in his work more visceral, and later, runs the idea by Megumi, who is reluctant to accept it.
With the deadline for his latest title fast impending, Tomoya finds himself experiencing writer’s block.
