Story

Reilly's introduction

Jun Yodaka's Olympic win led to a change in the age requirement for the Olympics, lowering it from 17 to 15 for the following cycle. Thanks to this, Reilly was able to compete at the age of 16 and win gold for the U.S. Afterwards, she retires from competition to start her own club in Tokyo.

Despite her refined image on TV, Reilly is casual and enthusiastic in daily life. She first appears after the block tournaments for the All-Japan Novice, seen interacting affectionately with her students. Later at the All-Japan Novice, she accompanies two of her students, Moé Hiraniya and Ako Koara. After seeing Inori Yuitsuka jump a Quad Salchow, Moé impulsively attempts a quad herself but only manages a single, resulting in a low score. Reilly does not mind though, as she used to suddenly pull off new jumps without practice frequently in her skating career. Ako, on the other hand, scores 110.40 and finishes in third.

The next year, Reilly acompanies Ako to a training camp in Osaka held by the federation. Later, she travels to Thailand with a male student, Suzaku Hiyodori, who is set to compete in Event 1 of the Junior Grand Prix. Also there are Tsukasa Akeuraji, Yudai Jakuzure, Seiji Gori, and their respective students. The evening after the event, Reilly invites Tsukasa and Yudai to her hotel room. They both find the situation sketchy, Tsukasa agrees without hesitation when Reilly claims she has insights about his student Inori.

Reilly's hotel room

In her lavish queen's bedchamber, Reilly is attended by Mrs. Koara and Mrs. Hiyodori as the two coaches join them. However, instead of discussing Inori, Reilly reveals her true intentions: she showers Tsukasa with compliments on his coaching talents and invites him to join Starfox FSC as an assistant coach, adding that Inori could join as well.

When Tsukasa steers the conversation back to Inori, Reilly brings up her observation that Inori struggles with her Choreographic Sequence. She attributes this to the lack of a rink where Inori can train using the full ice, another excuse to get Tsukasa to transfer to Starfox, which has its own rink facility. She continues to justify the move by highlighting the club's other assets, and reassures Tsukasa that he need not feel guilty about leaving since their new coach Kohei can take care of Lux.

Tsukasa's extreme reaction

Trying to show that she isn't picking on Lux Higashiyama, Reilly compliments Inori's fourth-place finish, calling it wonderful, but these words backfire horribly. Tsukasa breaks down in tears, insisting that it's not wonderful at all. He points out that Reilly won both of her events and the final in her first JGP, and Inori, being just as special, had a strong chance of winning. Given how much Inori wanted the gold, he feels devastated for failing her a second time after the All-Japans.

Shaken by the extreme reaction, Reilly kneels before Tsukasa and apologizes, realizing her own arrogance. Seeing how she's been affected, even Yudai, who was previously on Tsukasa's side, joins her in persuading Tsukasa to transfer. Still though, Tsukasa insists he won't make an empty sacrifice, as the change of environment won't guarantee improvement, and may result in psychological burden. He also believes their smaller club offers more personalized attention, and points to their success with Level 4 Step Sequences, which also require full-rink training, as proof that they can compete with Starfox without uprooting Inori.

Jun's visit

Though her attempt to recruit Tsukasa ends in failure, Reilly is later paid an unexpected visit by Jun Yodaka, who informs her of Hikaru Kamisaki's intention to transfer from Meikoh Wind FSC. However, this also comes with a few conditions: Jun will continue training Hikaru privately in addition to normal club training. He must receive his own private ice time, and his involvement must remain secret. Reilly, overjoyed by this development and still feeling indebted to Jun for her Olympic opportunity, accepts all terms. Thus, she becomes part of a close circle surrouding the generational prodigy, joining Jun, Leonid Sorokin, and Shou Takamine.

Soon, Hikaru arrives in Tokyo and is greeted warmly by her new clubmates. Reilly playfully dubs Hikaru "Pikarun" and teases her for overtraining at Meikoh in front of her clubmates, suggesting she felt guilty for winning with less practice and comments on the charm of a genius girl's clumsy side. However, Hikaru does not appreciate these remarks. She asserts that she is not ashamed of her mistakes, and that time spent with her clubmates were precious to her even if it slowed her down, and are not to be made fun of. The other skaters begin pressuring their coach into apologizing, and Reilly, being the pushover she is, complies immediately. Nevertheless, Reilly reassures Hikaru that she needn't worry about hurting others in this new environment, encouraging her to let her heart run wild.

Afternoon tea

At the All-Japan Junior that follows, after the short program on the first day, Hikaru consults Reilly about changing her program — she would like to upgrade her composition and choreography in hopes of inspiring Inori, her main rival who is on the verge of losing her drive after a poor short program performance. Knowing that Hikaru will soon have to face the reality of peaking due to weight gain, Reilly allows her to go all out at her free skate and include multiple quads to blow off steam, on the condition that she eases up on her quads later. After the All-Japan Junior, Reilly invites Shinichiro Sonidori to afternoon tea. Shinichiro expresses concern over toll Hikaru's jumps will take on her over time, but Reilly explains their agreement and assures him of her commitment to protecting Hikaru.
