O’Knutzy Week Day FIVE! (The end!)

The last part of Triwizard Cubs for @oknutzyweek2023, featuring fluff, fluff, and more fluff. This (finally) completes my bingo row of A1-A5! Woohoo! :)

Characters by @lumosinlove—thank you as always for letting us play in your universe. And a very happy belated birthday to our beloved Finn O'Hara! <3

Day 5: Summer Vacation (A3)

Leo had woken up from their Room of Requirement nap with Finn's body still tucked safely against his and happiness filling his chest. He was happy as he found Logan's green eyes calmly watching him on Finn's other side, and as he got to see Finn's copper lashes flutter as he slowly surfaced from the depths of sleep. He was happy when he kissed them, and when they did a little more than kiss, before they hastily redressed and snuck back out of the enchanted room, grinning knowingly at each other as they rejoined their classmates in the Great Hall.

He was happy when he won the Triwizard Tournament. A little shocked, maybe, but definitely happy as the raucous applause from the Ilvermorny camp (and quieter, polite applause from the Hogwarts and Beauxbatons contingents) roared in his ears and the gleaming silver trophy was pressed into his dirt-streaked hands. It mixed with a little guilt as he found Logan and Finn's eyes, but they looked so genuinely thrilled for him that he turned away from any bad feelings and leaned into the good.

Leo felt a bittersweet kind of happiness—the kind that presses on your lungs when you're exactly where you want to be but you know you can't stay long—as they shared a bed on his and Logan's last night in the castle, all urgent mouths and gripping hands and tangled sheets. He felt it even more sharply the next day as they lingered at the castle gates the next morning, the spring chill and dew-soaked grass making him want to crawl back into the warm sanctuary of the previous night even more.

A moment of nervous dread as Finn turned those doe eyes up at him. It's been fun, he braced himself to hear. I like you, but you're leaving. Too hard, scattered in three different countries, their studies coming to an end, the next chapter of their lives unfolding and taking them Merlin knows where. Bad timing. Won't work.

A flicker of hope as Finn actually said, "Can I come visit this summer?"

The happiness slowly returning, buoyed by hope, as Logan pulled them both into a crushing hug. It filled him up as he mumbled "you better" into Finn's neck. It made tears spring to his eyes as they made plans—a week in Nice, another in Galway, and another at his family's home in New Orleans. They'd all have to talk to their parents, of course, and sort out all the details, but that didn't matter just then; what made Leo happy-cry as he kissed them both breathless was that he got to say see you soon instead of goodbye.

His parents' happiness amplified his own as he spent a glorious weekend soaked in Southern sunshine before he had to be back in New England for his last few months of school. Whether they were more overjoyed at the news of his victory or his love life, he couldn't say, but he knew what he was happiest about as he scribbled hasty notes to Logan and Finn—apologizing to Kermit as a drop of ink splattered on his tiny green head—telling them they were welcome to come stay the last week in June, and that they could go to Lo in July and to Ireland for Finn's birthday week in August, maybe, if they wanted to.

They did.

If you asked Leo's friends and family what his happiest moment was, they might say it was when he received his Ilvermorny letter, or the first time he took flight on his very own broom, or when he won the Triwizard Tournament, or graduating at the top of his class.

But they'd be wrong. It actually, at least so far, was the moment Finn O'Hara and Logan Tremblay appeared in his family's old brick fireplace to spend part of their summer vacation here with him, far too warmly dressed and grinning like fools.

Or maybe it was the moment Logan drew him into his arms for one of his tight, all-encompassing hugs, ending the torture that was going weeks and weeks without it. ("Bonjour, Knutty, missed you.")

Or when Finn joined right in and wrapped his arms around both of them, laying his head on top of Leo's as he breathed a "finally."

Then again, the moment he pulled each of them in for dizzying reunion kisses could top the list.

Maybe he couldn't settle on just one moment. But as he led them into the bright kitchen where his mama had insisted on cooking up a feast, their hands a perfect fit in his, he knew there would be plenty more to come.

A3! Troupe Event: MY WORST WEDDING | Event Story Translation (3/11)

Neither Japanese nor English is my first language so please forgive me if I made mistake. However, feel free to point me out, I’d love to hear your feedbacks on the translation ˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶

Translation under the cut

.・。.・゜✭・.・✫・゜・。.

Azami: Persimmons and kiwis are rich in vitamin C.

Sakyo: Expensive. Grapes are on sale today.

Azami: Just a little bit is fine. Don’t be so stingy!

Sakyo: Only 10 yen, and then 20 yen. Piling up that a little bit can cost your head. One month, then one year, they’re gonna accumulate and become a larger amount and then… et cetera, et cetera–

Izumi: W-well! We will buy persimmons and kiwis at the next sale!

Azami: Tsk. Then at least do your sleeping duty properly. It won’t cost you anything.

Sakyo: … Will try my best. (*)

Izumi: Then, I’ll pay at the cash register!

*Shifts to Mankai dorm*

Izumi: Ah, that’s right. If they are rich in vitamin C, how about persimmon and kiwi curry next time?

Azami: No curry, please–.

Sakyo: No, thanks.

Izumi: You two are really in sync at times like this…

Sakyo: It seems to be edible if it’s only persimmon or kiwi curry, but you can’t put both into one.

Young girl: …

Izumi: ?

(That girl... She is looking inside Mankai dorm, I wonder if she needs something)

Sakyo: —Why are you here?

Miyako: Ah, onii-chan…!

Azami: Onii-chan?

*In the kitchen*

Izumi: I wonder if the younger sister would prefer orange juice rather than tea… Do we have any desserts here…

Azami: I brought some Monakas from my home last time. (**)

Izumi: Ah, that might help. Azami-kun, you can sit here.

Azami: It’s awkward to be over there so I’ll help you here.

Izumi: Eh? A tense atmosphere there?

Azami: Sakyo only comes home once in a while, so they’re still not close enough to talk when there are just two of them.

Izumi: I see…

*Shifts to the living room*

Izumi: Here for Sakyo-san is the Japanese tea, and for the younger sister, would you like to have orange juice?

Miyako: T-thank you.

Izumi: There are also some Monakas that Azami-kun got from his home, so if you’d like to, please feel free to have some.

Miyako: Itadakimasu…

Sakyo: …

Izumi: (Uhm, the air here is really awkward. Sakyo-san looks like he doesn’t know what to do either.)

Do you come here to meet Sakyo-san today?

Miyako: Y-yes… I need him to help me persuade my step-mother.

Izumi: Persuading?

Miyako: Actually, it seems that my step-mother didn’t have a proper wedding ceremony when she first got married and when she remarried to my dad.

But she said that she used to yearn for wearing a wedding dress back then, so I was thinking about getting her and my father a wedding photoshoot this time…

Their wedding anniversary is getting near soon.

Azami: Wedding photoshoot?

Izumi: Instead of organizing an actual ceremony or reception, in order to commemorate, the brides and the grooms will wear dresses and tuxedos for taking photos.

Miyako: I told her that this is the right time to wear a dress for commemoration. But she said that she was not young enough to wear a dress anymore…

Izumi: These days there are lots of couples celebrating their 60th birthdays, so I don’t think age really matters. (***)

Miyako: I know right!?

Azami: That reminds me Omi-san once said that he did that sort of work too, not only the pre-wedding photoshoot, but also the anniversary photoshoot for couples’ 10th wedding anniversary.

Sakyo: Did you tell step-father about this?

Miyako: Yes… But step-mother’s feelings are the most important after all…

Sakyo: That’s right…

Miyako: However, step-mother said that she used to wish to wear a dress back then… Onii-chan too, you also heard that last time, right?

Sakyo: I think mother also feels glad that you want to do this for her, but it’d be difficult to persuade her since she’s pretty stubborn.

I tried to be filial to her before, but she refused after that. She told me to spend my money more on something else.

Miyako: Step-mother is such a frugal person, isn’t she…

Sakyo: If we can convince her, I’ll pay all the expenses for the wedding anniversary celebration.

But if mother still sticks to what she wants, then even me can’t persuade her either. It can’t be helped.

Miyako: I see…

*Shifts to outdoor*

Sakyo: I’ll take you to the station.

Miyako: It’s still bright and it won’t take too long, so it’s okay.

Izumi: Please feel free to come over again anytime.

Miyako: Thank you for your treat.

Izumi: I hope that Miyako-san’s feelings can be conveyed to your step-mother as well.

Miyako: I wonder if my step-mother saying she didn’t look good in a dress is perhaps a matter of principle, that she has some reservations about her ex-husband. Like she cannot forget her ex-husband or something…

Sakyo: That won’t happen. It’s been decades since my father passed away.

And when she decided to remarry, mother also reported it in front of the Buddhist altar with a bright look on her face.

Miyako: I see… Thanks for letting me know, onii-chan. Sorry for bothering you.

Sakyo: Be careful on your way home.

*Inside the dorm*

Izumi: …What you said before, will it be alright?

Sakyo: It’s no use forcing her to receive the care she doesn’t want to. She is not someone who likes luxury things in the first place, so she won’t let anyone spend money on her…

You guys don’t need to worry ‘bout it.

Izumi: …

Azami: She is Sakyo’s mother after all, and even though we know she’s frugal, if we say it’s to commemorate, she’ll agree, won’t she.

Izumi: I heard that Sakyo-san once got refused before when trying to buy his mother an apartment. Maybe that’s why he is afraid of being refused again after persuading her.

I think Sakyo-san also really wants to be filial to his parents.

Azami: (Filial piety…)

*Shifts to Room 106*

Azami: Oi, hurry up and go to bed.

Sakyo: I still have work to do. Go to bed first.

Azami: Didn’t you say you’d sleep properly instead of buying persimmons and kiwis.

Sakyo: Tsk, you still remember that… I’ll turn off the light then.

Azami: ——Hey.

Sakyo: Hah?

Azami: ..No, nothing.

Sakyo: ?

*Flashback*

Sayuri: “Actually, Mom wanted to wear a dress too.”

*Back to present*

Azami: …

Translator’s note:

(*) He is using 善処する here, which means “I will try my best but can’t guarantee the result”. I don’t want to make the sentence too long but couldn’t think of any phrasing that can express this nuance, so I noted this.

(**) モナカ (monaka) is a type of dessert (wagashi) which is served with tea.

(***) In Japan, people celebrate their 60th birthdays, which is called “kanreki” (還暦). Kanreki is celebrated as a rebirth or re-entry into childhood.

my entire agents' family tree, for some reason

⇣ EXTRA INFO BELOW :-) ⇣

callie and marie are cousins, obviously.

al (a3) is their adopted younger brother. both of theirs. dont think about it too hard LOL... his parents were neglectful at best and abusive at worst, and he ran away at thirteen and a half years old, with his parents never looking for him for even a second. he did have some schooling, although due to stress and anxiety, never learned too much. he mostly showed up for the food and for the fact that he'd be punished if the school called his parents and made them go out of their way for him. poor guy. he's much, much happier now though.

sunny (neo3) is the second adopted child, she's older than jackie by either a few months or a year (exact date of birth unknown except for the year, birthday is celebrated on 4/20 because funn y), she was orphaned at a young age and raised by salmonids. she is fluent in splatlandian inkling and salmonid language!

jackie (neo3) is the third adopted child, the youngest of the bunch. his parents were killed in a freak salmon run accident, originally he was apprehensive with teaming up with sunny, but she taught him that grizzco was the real aggressor, and that salmonids were hardworking people who just wanted to live like anyone else. he speaks salmonid, albeit much poorer than sunny.

pearl and marina are.......! in love! probably engaged at this point too.

amélie was born and raised communally in the octarian army. she doesn't know who her real parents were, and never really questioned it. she never really fit into the ranks of the army, and couldn't ever see a future for herself there. they considered her too soft and pathetic, and it was impossible to climb the ranks or be herself (being trans certainly did not help). she considers the extended cuttlefish family and her partners her true family now. she has no real regrets with leaving the army, she's finally free to be herself and to live her own life the way she wants, and she has never looked back since.

rosabel was born into a regular suburban nuclear family. she was the epitome of "average anime middle school protagonist", living a double life of a secret agent and stressed grade schooler. she has a younger sibling, and two parents.... but they're not relevant to this story. they're just kinda there. she's not particularly close to them, but they're not on bad terms. she just thinks they wouldn't understand the crazy stuff that goes on in her head or that happens to her. probably for the better that they would never believe her in this case! she prefers to spend time with her friends, and considers them her real chosen family anyway, so if her parents had gotten in the way of her seeing them, it would've been devastating.

A3! Minagi Tsuzuru - Translation [SR] Festival of Blooming (2/2)

*Please read disclaimer on blog

---

Tsuzuru: (For now, let’s jot some things down about Masumi.) First off… he’s cheeky. He’s calm, collected, and he does well in acting and everything else. The exception is when it comes to Director. He’s actually rich. He has a refined and pretty face. And… he likes music. He’s seriously the complete opposite of me. Other than that… …Oh, I know.

-pause-

Masumi: Here’s my clothes.

Tsuzuru: Thanks. I borrowed some headphones from the Manager.

Masumi: It’s fine. You can use mine. You’ll be more like me with those.

Tsuzuru: Wait, but…

Masumi: ?

Tsuzuru: Hatsue-san gave those to you. They’re special to you, aren’t they?

Masumi: They won’t break unless you drop them super hard. Their quality isn’t that cheap.

Tsuzuru: …Are you sure? Alright, I’ll use them gratefully then.

-pause-

Tsuzuru: I managed to shimmy in… but it’s tight…

Masumi: That’s not a good look on you.

Tsuzuru: Straight to the gut! Well, it’s fine. I wasn’t expecting you to compliment me anyways… In any case, I’m starting. “…Hello, grandma? I saw on the news it snowed a lot over there. Are you doing alright?”

Masumi: (This is me when I’m videocalling with grandma…)

Tsuzuru: “I heard there’s a heatwave. You're not suffering from heatstroke or anything, are you?” “Happy birthday, grandma. Did you get the present I left with dad?”

Masumi: (Is that how I am when I’m talking with grandma?)

Tsuzuru: “Let me know when you’re coming back to Japan. Director wants to see you too. …Yeah, I’ll be waiting.” …So, how was that?

Masumi: That wasn’t like me at all. …Probably. I mean, I’ve never seen myself when I’m talking to grandma. But I clearly remember when those scenes happened. I’m sure you weren’t off.

Tsuzuru: To tell you the truth, I like seeing you when you’re speaking with Hatsue-san.

Masumi: ?

Tsuzuru: I can’t verbalize it very well if you ask me why… How do I put it? I get the feeling that’s your true self. We were born with and raised in completely different circumstances, and I've felt that countless times while we’ve been living together. However, you love your family and want to cherish them as much as I do… Seeing you when you talk to Hatsue-san makes me feel really close to you.

Masumi: …That gives me goosebumps.

Tsuzuru: Same here. Anyways, we have to take the polaroid picture. What should I do for the pose~. …Ah.

Masumi: What?

Tsuzuru: I have a heart sponge I got from Chikage-san. I was actually considering doing magic tricks, so I asked him to teach me.

Masumi: …Hmm. I’m going to take the polaroid, so pick your pose.

Tsuzuru: O-okay, give me a second. …Like this?

*click*

Tsuzuru: Yeah, this really doesn’t suit me.

Masumi: That’s why I said it’s not a good look on you.

Tsuzuru: *Sigh*… I hope they cancel the polaroid merch.

Masumi: …Hey. Were you able to pull off that magic trick?

Tsuzuru: Ah, yeah, more or less. I got the hang of it, but I can’t do it well. I still need to practise.

Masumi: If you’re going to show off that magic trick, don’t you dare do it in front of Director.

Tsuzuru: I doubt I’d get a chance to, so that’s fine by me…

Masumi: That’s the first magic trick I performed for her, after all.

Tsuzuru: Ah, I see. Yep, that’s Masumi for you.

Meet the Seiyuu: Azul Ashengrotto

Azul’s VA Tamaru Atsushi first became interested in voice acting while studying for university entrance exams, when he would listen to radio shows hosted by voice actors in order to relax.

He enrolled in a voice actor training academy during his second year in university while majoring in electronics and IT. His thesis was on learning support tools for satellites; he studied at both schools simultaneously. After graduating he was accepted to his first agency through an open audition for aspiring voice actors.

In an interview Tamaru says that he was the only new actor they accepted who had yet to have a lead role in any project. He says his first job was not voice acting, but for study materials.

I am not sure if this is the same project he mentioned in the interview but I was able to find a 2019 English conversation study guide, “Handsome English Conversation Phrases”, for people studying English as a second language.

In a 2021 interview Tamaru said he can be a perfectionist and struggle if he doesn’t feel he'll be able to do something to perfection.

When he first started out he was very nervous in front of senpai VAs and would obsess over being polite and any bad feedback he received on set.

His voice acting debut was 2009 anime “Kupu~!! Mamegoma!” at age 23.

Tamaru voiced Kunimi Akira in Haikyuu!!, but actually auditioned for the role of Kageyama Tobio.

In a 2015 interview he said that his hobby is board games and that he enjoys Dominion and Settlers of Catan.

When asked, “What kind of role would you like to try in the future?” in the same 2015 interview Tamaru responded, “It is something I’ve never done before, but I would love to play a villain. I don't think my voice is suited for a villainous role, but I think I might have a chance if it were a colder-looking villain.”

He has had lead roles in 17 different anime series, 25 video games, over 30 drama cds including Jewelpet, Aikatsu!, Meganebu!, The Irregular at Magic High School, The Asterisk War, Seiren, A3!, Gundam Build Divers, I-Chu, Build Divide, Gakuen Heaven 2, Touken Ranbu and more.

Both Tamaru and Floyd’s VA Okamoto voice characters in “Variable Barricade NS”, for the Nintendo Switch, while Tamaru and Jade’s VA Komada voice the lead characters in drama CD, “All Our Love and Youth”.

An amazing person has put together a compilation of voice clips from 21 characters that Tamaru has voiced, viewable here.

A photoshoot of Tamaru modeling for Jade’s voice actor Komada Wataru (who is both a voice actor and professional photographer; he has done similar photoshoots with Crewel, Trey, Kalim and Rook’s voice actors)

More of Tamaru and Jade’s VA Komada Wataru, on an episode of Komada’s now completed “CanCamp” show.

Tamaru visiting the Twisted Wonderland exhibition and posing with Azul’s display:

Prism Paradise Winter Live

Posing with Azul’s Glorious Masquerade banner in Shinjuku Station

On his twitter he posts pictures and information about the projects he appears in, as well as Twisted Wonderland rolls. Here he wishes Floyd and Jade Happy Birthday.

Tamaru with Jade’s Komada and Floyd’s Okamoto

Singing Tamaru in a promotion for the A3! Blooming Live Concert DVD

Tamaru has appeared on Episodes 9, 10 and 11 of Crewel’s VA Ito Kent’s monthly YouTube show “Good Boy”: Episode 9 ・ Episode 10 ・ Episode 11

A3! Translation - Summer 23 Birthday Special Thanks Messages

(Normally here is where I'd put a picture, but I'm gonna encourage you to get the special pic yourself! Even if you missed a birthday live, the summer codes all still work!)

Misumi: Thanks for so many birthday wishes! I’d be really happy if we can celebrate together next year too~△

Tenma: I’ll convert all the wishes and support I’ve received into strength in my acting, without fail. That’s my one promise.

Yuki: Thanks for the birthday wishes. I promise I’ll live up to your expectations and become even cuter next year.

Kumon: Every birthday, I seriously come to love you all more and more…! Next year too, I’m sure I’ll like you even MORE!

Kazunari: I had the best b-day ever again this year! I’m counting on y’all to support the sickest, most photogenic me of the year next year too~☆

Muku: To think that now I'm able to get birthday wishes from so many people like this… I really am so fortunate!

Brief TL Notes:

1. Kazunari says 年イチ最強 (toshi ichi saikyou), which I'm PRETTY sure just means "the best of the year", but with him idk so let me know if that's wrong XD 1-2. Honestly "sickest" is kind of redundant, but I threw it in to make it a little more casual

Kumon what is this (it's 誕生日 but still)

#muku gave me nothing in his 5-pull then saw this and was like 'yeah sure I can read that!'#a3!#a3! translation #summer troupe #the only thing saving kumon from my wrath is that I write 会 and 糸 similarly to that #with the scribble back and forth instead of each individual line

Sketchbook (20-29)

Sketchbook 23 was the last of 2020

Sketchbook (30-40)

Sketchbook 39 begun on 1st January (it like was 3 days before that bc i got impatient)

Sketchbook 4 is where i put my foot down and decided to actually start learning how to draw. With the help of my mother (master's degree in sculpture and working as a product designer currently)

Sketchbook 10-19

Sketchbook 20-29

24 and 27 is Patroclus . 29 is David.

Sketchbook 30-40

All my modified + handmade sketchbooks

(My frankenstein's monsters)

Allow me to explain how, unasked :

Sketchbook 11 and 12 were my old school provided A3 trashy ass sketchbooks that i folded into A4s and re decorated (original cover art)

Sketchbook 13,14,15,17 are hand sewn. 13 pinpoints the moments i started my book binding shop retirement plans (original cover art)

Sketchbook 19 got the same treatment as 11 and 12 but more brutal. 19's pages were ripped of to make them A4. (Original cover art)

Sketchbook 20 was hand sewn (original cover art)

Sketchbook 21 is where i tried my first hard cover attempt. (Original cover art)

Sketchbook 22 is held together by hopes and prayers. I gutted an old leather diary and glued a hand sewn sketchbook to the leather body (original cover art)

Sketchbook 23 got the same exact treatment as 19 (not original cover art)

Sketchbook 24 is my pride and joy, my handmade hard cover sketchbook with patroclus on the cover looking slutty and holy. The hard cover is from a withered cardboard box🙈 (grey area)

Sketchbook 25 was me shamelessly copying cassandra jean's art. I was 13 and didnt know any better. let me live- (officer lock me up. Not original cover art)

Sketchbook 30 i made my mother merge two store bought sketchbooks together. It is also the sketchbook where i glued on and taped on extra pages and shit. It is crying for help. some of my best redesigns are there (original cover art)

Sketchbook 36 is my best work yet, it is perfect in everyway, looks very professional and neat, the spine is straighter than a flagpole and the pages are neatly sewn the hard cover is made from sketchbook 19's discarded hardcover remains i think...(not original cover art)

Sketchbook 39 is where i made the cover out of my old childhood book (an encyclopedia of sorts which gave me all my immortal hyperfixations dinosaurs and greek mythology) and i made my mother sew a 200 page sketchbook in the middle of the night. (Original cover art)

#drawing #art #auru draws #artists on tumblr #sketchbooks #i often redraw other artist's art as the covers bc i like those arts and i do not claim the art as mine #i like to make my own covers as a meditation process. i want them to turn out well #copying other ppl requires less thinking than coming up with an original work #so yeah

Taebinkai: ‘Bappy Hirthday’

Pairing: little! taehyun, little! soobin, little! huening kai, caregiver! reader

It’s their beloved Mama’s birthday, and they’re more than willing to celebrate it with her.

You had had a really stressful time at your office, with deadlines squashing onto you and your boss shouting at you nonstop. You were in a terrible mood when you returned, and you didn’t even bother to greet Taehyun, Soobin, and Kai when you entered the house.

They weren’t little then, and they shared a glance, understanding that you must’ve had such a bad time, to the point where you completely forgot about them and your birthday that was coming tomorrow.

Right. Your birthday was coming tomorrow, and you made absolutely no intentions to celebrate it -- not even with your littles. In fact, since you’d completely forgotten about it, you were prepared to continue with your work at the office the next day.

And the three of them were really understanding about it, so they discreetly called the office and told them that you would be taking the week off. You, being such a workaholic, would definitely get mad at them, but they decided that it was worth it for your mental and physical health.

It was the next morning when all three of them had slipped. It was totally unintentional, but now they had no one to take care of them, and they absolutely didn’t want to disturb you.

“Hyungie, ‘m bored,” Huening whined. They were in the living room, having absolutely nothing to do. All of them were a bit too little to make food for themselves, and they knew they had to have their Mama’s permission to turn on the TV, so now they were left just there.

“’s Mommy’s b’day! We gotta do somefing!” Soobin decided, his hands on his hips, acting all serious. “Jus’ wan’ Mama...” Taehyun pouted, clinging to Soobin. “Me too, but we have’ta cereblate!” Soobin declared.

“Oh! W-we can make cookies fo’ Mama!” Kai gasped at his idea, jumping up and down happily. “Mama says we can’t use oven wit’out pemission,” Soobin supplied, making Kai sulk.

“Drawin’?” Taehyun suggested in a small voice. “Oh yeah! We could draw for Mama!” Kai squealed, immediately forgetting about his sadness because of not being able to make cookies. “I can get big big paper!” Soobin exclaimed. “Ningie and Tyunnie get crayons!”

“Yayy!!!” Kai cheered, running to one of their cupboards to get the crayons, followed by Taehyun, who put a finger to his lips. “S-shh, has’ta be- be su’pwise,” he reminded Kai, who nodded. “Got it, Tyunnie!”

When they returned to the center of the living room, Soobin had just come with the huge A3 drawing paper. “I’m gonna draw da cake!” Soobin said. “But I wanna draw the cake too~” Kai whined.

“Then we can have two cakes! Tyunnie draw us, p’ease!” Soobin said, not wanting to upset any of his dongsaengs.

“M’kay, hyungie,” Taehyun nodded, starting with a tall stick figure with a pink crayon. He added some long brown hair since he couldn’t find any black, but that did the job. He didn’t forget to draw an orange birthday hat on top of the frizzly hair too.

After drawing Soobin (with a blue cap and a big red smile), Taehyun turned to look at the other two’s drawings. “Add sprinklies too,” Soobin ordered to Kai as he drew a giant candle on top of his cake. “You have’ta add m-more icing too, hyungie!” Kai complained.

This went on a while, until the two cakes and the four stick figures were finally completed. The littles were so proud of their work, but that’s when Taehyun remembered something.

“Add ‘bappy hirthday’, hyungie!” He said to Soobin, who laughed. “It’s ‘happy birthday’, Tyunnie! But yeah, should add that too.”

Taehyun pouted, watching Soobin scribble the words messily onto the paper. It wasn’t the tidiest, but at least better than Kai and Taehyun could do in littlespace.

“Done! Yay!” Kai bounced up instantly, a big smile on his expression. “It says, ‘Mama bappy hirthday’!”

Soobin laughed at Kai’s cute mistake. He really needed to teach his little brothers better pronunciation and spelling in the future.

That’s when they heard a door open -- it was you!

You had woken up groggily, hearing little giggles coming from outside. You knew you had to go to work today (or so you thought), but you were already late since your alarm had somehow been turned off, and you felt even more annoyed as it was obvious that the three of them had slipped.

“Boys, Mommy has to work today-”

“Mama, bappy hirthday-”

“Tyunnie, it’s happy birthday!”

“Bappy hirthday, Mama!” Kai had already rushed to you, throwing his arms around you with fits of giggles. Soobin and Taehyun followed, with the eldest little continuously grumbling about Kai and Tae’s pronunciation.

“Did you make this for me?” You couldn’t help but smile at the sight of their drawing. “Fo’ Mama!” Taehyun beamed, not letting go of you at all.

“Aw, you guys are so sweet,” you cooed at your babies, who blushed, hiding themselves in your chest. “I think you all deserve some yummy pancakes for this… with extra syrup, how does that sound?”

“YAY!!”

[A3! Game] Azuma Yukishiro - MANKAI Party SSR Backstage Translation

a/n: This is a translation that I commissioned from currytantou and was given permission to share publicly.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Birthday Vlog: Azuma/1

Azuma: This black tea smells so sweet and delicious.

Izumi: That’s right...!

Homare: This was actually a gift from a fan.

Izumi: I see.

Izumi: Recently, I started doing new things to study characters and one of them is joining a tea party.

Izumi: We often do tea parties in the dorm and in my mind, black tea is a go-to.

Izumi: But you guys sure know a lot about black tea. How did you obtain all that knowledge?

Homare: I’m a black tea lover in the first place. I brew it often back home too.

Homare: I often receive it as a gift from acquaintances, editorial department members and fans so I naturally learned about it.

Azuma: I had plenty of chances to learn about black tea, since my clients taught me every now and then.

Azuma: I went to have some tea with an acquaintance the other day too.

Azuma: Oh, that reminds me. I received an unusual liquor that time. Maybe I should open it and have that with everyone next time.

Homare: Sounds nice. I’m excited.

Izumi: Hmm. Going out for some tea with acquaintances and receiving nice liquor...

Izumi: I’ve lived in the same dorm with you for a long time, but there’s just so many mysterious sides of you, Azuma-san.

Azuma: Are you that curious about me?

Homare: Hm, hm. I sure do.

Izumi: I am curious...!

Citron: I am!

Izumi: Huh, Citron-kun? I didn’t notice you.

Citron: Sniff, sniff. I smelled something nice and found out you three are having a tea time!

Citron: I want to join too!

Homare: Sure, feel free.

Azuma: I will pour some tea for the Prince.

Citron: Many thanks! I will drink it right away.

Izumi: (This sight of Citron-kun having tea is so elegant. He looks so good.)

Citron: Mhm, this is..! I’ve had this before. A madam gave it to me.

Homare: It’s a tea leaf from a well-known store.

Izumi: (I s-see..! I had no idea...)

Izumi: (Citron-kun, Homare-san and Azuma-san, all of them have wide social connections, eh.)

Homare: That’s right, Azuma-san. Have you decided what to do for the upcoming birthday vlog?

Azuma: Me? Oh right, I haven’t given it a thought yet.

Izumi: There’s still plenty of time so do record something that you will be satisfied with.

Azuma: Yeah, I’ll do that.

[Time skip to Journey]

Azuma: (The event vlog that the director mentioned earlier.... What should I do?)

Azuma: (The three said that they are curious about my personal life, right?)

Guy: Yukishiro. Is there anything that bothers your mind?

Azuma: A little. It’s nothing huge though...

Citron: Azuma is worried about the vlog, right!

Guy: Citronia.

Azuma: That’s right. I suppose it’s showing on my face.

Citron: Huhu. Everything is butt-through* for me.

Guy: All-through*? I did ask Citronia to help out at the store today but I believe not all day.

Azuma: I believe it should be see-through*?

Citron: That’s it!

Guy: I see.

Guy: Vlog is the thing we do for the birthday event. Do you have any choice in mind?

Azuma: I was thinking of showing a part of my personal life.

Azuma: But I wonder if such footage will be enjoyable...

Guy: Wouldn’t it be good if you try to record and think over it again?

Guy: If you’re not satisfied with it, just record it again.

Azuma: Huhu, you’re right.

Citron: Come in!**

Syu: Hey now. Am I entering the wrong place?

Azuma: Oh, Syu-san.

Guy: He’s our regular these days.

Syu: Regular, you said... Well, point taken.

Azuma: (That’s right. This kind of scene...)

t/n: *Citron says “omikoshi” (“butt-through”), Guy misunderstood and thinks he meant “otooshi” (“all-through”), and Azuma corrects them to “omitoushi” (“see-through”).

**He’s welcoming like an owner of izakaya/Japanese style pub.

--------------------

Birthday Vlog: Azuma/2

Citron: Oh, Azuma. Are you going out somewhere?

Azuma: Yes. I’m going to have some tea with an acquaintance.

Citron: Huh! I know. You’re going to carry out that plan!

Azuma: That plan...?

Citron: Infiltrating...! It’s Azuma’s personal life report!

Azuma: Huhu, this is no longer a vlog, then?

Citron: You’re right. We should cut this out.

Citron: Madams, sorry for suddenly being here. Thanks for letting me join!

Majo: You are Azuma-kun’s friend. Of course you are welcomed.

Citron: Everything alright with the camera?

Citron: I made sure to respect everyone’s privacy.

Azuma: Huhu, I’m relieved to hear that.

Majo: Go ahead, I don’t mind.

Azuma: Thank you.

Madam A: Speaking of which, the video that you’re recording right now is called vlog, is it?

Citron: Yes!

Azuma: There will be a segment where we watch the vlog together with those who come to my birthday event.

Madam A: Oh, how wonderful.

Majo: That’s right. Azuma-kun’s birthday is coming soon.

Majo: I’m sure many people will greet you at your birthday event.

Azuma: Yes. ....To be honest, I wasn’t very happy with the thought of growing older.

Azuma: But to be celebrated by people who I am connected to such as my fans and Majo-san.

Azuma: Not to forget those people in Mankai Company too.

Azuma: Perhaps, as I grew older, I’ve started to gradually stop seeing it in a negative light.

Majo: Maybe that’s true.

Madam A: It’s not a bad thing to grow older.

Majo: Yes. Huhu, actually I’ve more things I want to do at this age.

Madam A: Yes.

Citron: Madams, looks like you’re enjoying yourself.

[Time skip to Azuma and Citron walking down the street]

Citron: I enjoyed the tea time with everyone. Where are we heading next?

Azuma: Are you recording even when we’re on the move?

Citron: It’s to expose Azuma’s mysterious personal life! I cannot waste not a minute or a second!

Azuma: Huhu, I see.

Citron: Those madams are lovely people. They really care about you, Azuma.

Azuma: ...Yes.

Citron: Azuma, why do you join their tea parties?

Azuma: Hmm, I wonder. One thing, yes, it’s because they invited me....

Azuma: I believe I get to learn so much through their stories from the people who are seniors in life.

Azuma: I hated aging but if I were going to, I might as well age beautifully like these ladies.

Citron: Huhu.

Azuma: ...What is it?

Citron: Azuma who is already wonderful is going to be even more wonderful. I look forward to it.

Azuma: Huhu, thank you.

Azuma: That’s right. Can we go back to the dorm for a moment?

Citron: ? Did you forget something?

Azuma: Just a quick moment.

[Cut to outside of Journey]

Azuma: Here’s the next place. I suppose alcohol is like my brand.

Citron: Absolutely!

[Cut to inside of Journey]

Azuma: Ah!

Syu: ..!

Azuma: Syu-san...

Syu: You again, huh?

Azuma: Today you came in first, unlike the other day.

Syu: Hm? That guy behind you, what is he taking?

Citron: A vlog!

Azuma: I plan to use it for my upcoming birthday event.

Syu: Don’t record me.

Citron: No, no! Don’t cover the lens with your hand! Let’s record together! Give us some fanservice!

Syu: I said don’t record me. Fanservice too-

Azuma: Syu-san, here.

Syu: ...!

Syu: This liquor is said to be rare... Why bring this...?

Azuma: Huhu, there’s something I want to ask you.

---------------------

Birthday Vlog: Azuma/3

Tasuku: Azuma-san, he’s late.

Omi: I guess it’s taking time for him to get ready.

Citron: I’m sure he wants to appear in front of the fans in his best look.

Azuma: I kept you waiting.

Izumi: Oh, speaking of the devil.

Tasuku: You look so psyched up.

Azuma: Yeah. I want everyone to see me in my prettiest look.

Citron: I expect nothing less. Gotta make sure to keep snapping your photos!

Azuma: There will be one at the end of the day, right? Photograph session.

Izumi: Yes, please keep that in mind!

Azuma: While we’re at it, how about a photo here?

Omi: Leave it to me.

Tasuku: Sure, but please don’t be late to the event.

Azuma: I know. Geez, you are such a worrywart.

[Cut to Mankai theater]

Azuma: Hello everyone, thank you for coming to my birthday event.

Audience A: Azuma-san!~ Happy birthday!

Audience B: Azuma-san, happy birthday!

Audience C: You look beautiful today too...!

Azuma: Thank you, I will call our guest today.

Citron: I’m the guest! It’s Citron! Happy bday, Azuma!

Omi: It’s Fushimi Omi. Azuma-san, happy birthday. Everyone, please wish the best for Azuma-san today.

Tasuku: I’m Takato Tasuku. Uhh, Azuma-san. Happy birthday.

Citron: Hm? Tasuku, why are you squeaking today?*

Tasuku: You mean acting awkward. I just think that wishing him a happy birthday feels a little odd.

Azuma: Huhu, especially when we’re in the same troupe.

Azuma: Now, without further ado, let’s start with the first segment.

[Cuts to Vlog video]

Citron: Infiltrating...! It’s Azuma’s personal life report!

[Cuts back to the theater]

Audience A: Personal life report...!?

Audience B: So Citron-kun is the cameraman? That’s surprising!

Tasuku: I think this part should be edited out.

Citron: What a meanie, Tasuku! That’s my chaotic title call!**

Omi: Chaotic?

Azuma: Maybe you’re talking about energetic?

Citron: That’s it!

Audience A: A tea party at the hotel lounge.... How elegant.

Audience B: They look so graceful even though they were just having an idle talk. It’s giving off a tea time in a castle vibe.

Azuma: We often do afternoon tea at the dorm these days.

Azuma: Sometimes we bring back snacks, sometimes Omi prepares the sweets himself.

Azuma: I should have brought the photos from that time.

Azuma: Omi is not only good at cooking but he also can make sweets. They are so delicious.

Omi: Oh, please stop. I’m flattered but this somehow makes me embarrassed.

Audience C: Omi-kun is bashful!

Audience D: Cute~

[Cuts to Vlog video]

Syu: Hm? That guy behind you, what is he taking?

Citron: A vlog!

[Cuts back to the theater]

Audience A: Ehh, Syu-san?!

Audience B: Wow, I didn’t expect Otomiya Syu-san to be in this..!

Tasuku: I’m impressed how you managed to get an okay from him.

Azuma: Actually, I keep this bottle of liquor that I received.

Azuma: I have plenty and even those are too much for us. So I gave it to him even though I actually planned to share it with you guys.

Citron: In other words, it’s a bribe!

Omi: Hey, now.

[Cuts to Vlog video]

Citron: Syu, fanservice! I want you to do this!

Syu: Geez, do I have a choice? Only exception for today.

[Cuts back to the theater]

Audience C: Ahh! He’s winking to the camera while making a heart finger!!

Audience D: A wink and heart finger from Syu-san! Oh my gosh, he’s too cool!

Citron: Huhu, we got an SSR level fanservice!

Tasuku: That’s right. Syu-san doesn’t seem the type who does fanservice to the camera.

Omi: I expect nothing less from Azuma-san and Citron.

[Short Time Skip] Azuma: Everyone, how do you find the vlog? Did you enjoy it?

Audience A: I enjoyed it so much!

Audience B: I’m so glad I got to see Azuma-san’s personal life...!

Azuma: Thank you.

Azuma: The vlog was titled ‘my personal life’ but that was just one part of it.

Azuma: I thought I was growing mature as I age...

Azuma: But I am surrounded by wonderful people who age beautifully.

Azuma: Talking to these people makes me feel open-minded with my own life. That’s how I feel.

Azuma: I cannot resist aging from here on but I hope to stay my beautiful self and walk a wonderful life.

Citron: To wrap up the event, we’ll take Azuma’s picture!

Tasuku: We have the perfect person for that job.

Omi: Yeah. I’ve got the camera ready.

Azuma: Omi, I leave this to you.

Tasuku: What pose will you do?

Azuma: Let’s see... Maybe I should do the same one with Syu-san.

Azuma: It’s frustrating that Syu-san got the spotlight even though it was my vlog. Huhu, just kidding.

Citron: That’s nice. It’s a heart throbbing pose!

Omi: All ready? Say cheese!

t/n: *Citron misspeaks and says “gikogiko” (“squeaking”), Tsuzuru corrects him to “gikochinai” (“acting”).

**Citron says “konton” (“chaotic”), Azuma corrects him to “konshin” (“energetic”).
