can u do qiu and tamarack with an MC who LOVES to bake/cook but since theres not enough people in their house to eat it all of what they make most the time, they'll just knock on their doors like "do you want cookies? I just took them out the oven." or something

Author’s Note: Hi! I hoped you enjoy this, I have recently been getting into baking so this should be a fun write for me!

Pairing(s): Qiu Lin x MC and Tamarack Baumann x MC

🍪🧈🥄

QIU LIN 📝

Heck yeah! Free food!

When you first came into the problem of baking too much to eat, you were stumped

And when you expressed that to your dear friend, Qiu. They instantly volunteered as tribute to be a taste tester.

They want them as fresh as possible so they would probably just wait around your house or watch you bake them.

I don’t think they would help much other than passing you ingredients and maybe stirring the batter.

Only to get a lick of the batter

Of course, it's not because they don’t want to help or anything like that, they just know that you probably enjoy handling it on your own and being in your element without having some nerd ask them to go through the steps for the tenth time.

They get super excited when you try out a new pastry or recipe and have them be the very first to try it.

It feels like an exclusive event every time they get to be the first to try something of yours.

I headcanon that Qiu is kind of hopeless in the kitchen, preferring to just go to the diner or their parents if they want something.

They burn water so it’s mesmerized to watch you bake something from scratch.

I like to think that for a special occasion, they might try and bake you something either from scratch or a box mix!

“Wow! Did you bake this all for me? You’re so nice!”

Tamarack Baumann🍁

Gets PUMPED when finding this out!

Thinks this is something you can add to your guys’ tea parties! What's not better than some tea with homemade cookies and bread?

It’s like an actual fancy tea party now! :0

Tamarack isn’t super picky, but does appreciate variety! She encourages you to try out a bunch of different recipes regardless of the difficulty level.

Like, what do you mean you can’t make macaroons? You’re a master baker, you could try!

She doesn’t want you to be the only one pulling your weight to supply these tea parties, she will be bringing lots of teas and little stuff to put on them, like milk and honey!

Tamarack is crafty so I see her making you a little apron and custom mittens with while wonky, cute embroidery of your name!

This inspires her to make more stuff like a chef's hat which leads her down a sewing rabbit hole.

She eats most of what you bring her but she also likes inviting you inside to give them to her Omi and Opa!

She doesn’t care too much about the freshness of the cookies but she also enjoys watching you bake.

The energetic girl needs some downtime too and watching you bake is soothing to her.

“Treats? Yay! This will be nice for the tea party! Come, sit! I will get the tea you liked last time!”

oh, christmas tree

an: i went back and forth on this a lot but i hope yall love it! another winter event moment. i will have you know that i am pro fake tree :/

pairings: husband!sakusa x fem!reader

warnings: none really, lot of fluff, sakusa is a grump

-

the pretty curls on sakusa's head begin to quiver the second the two of you step out of the car. the air is cold and crisp, carrying the clean scent of pine along with it. with a deep inhale, he feels at peace.

until he turns around, that is.

there happens to be a very daunting task ahead of him. he really hopes that the two of you can be quick about this. it's freezing, and he just wants to be home.

"so, how tall do we want it?" your fingers lace with his as you walk towards the rows of trees, propped up and ready to be chosen. christmas music plays faintly in the background as the two of you approach the small shop.

"i would prefer it to be taller than me," he mumbles underneath the wool scarf he's wrapped around his neck.

you hum, eyeing the different trees up and down. "any other requirements?"

sakusa looks back and forth down the isles and sighs. the pine needles dusting the ground before him reminds him of the discussion the two of you had just last night.

you wanted to make things special for your first year married, especially your first christmas married. every cliche holiday event, you wanted in. and it just so happened that picking out a christmas tree was first on your list.

sakusa didn't see the point.

he is used to a fake tree. one that's tried and true, ready whenever you need it, and easy to put away when you don't. no mess, no frills. unfortunately for him, you just didn't see eye to eye. after hours of convincing, promising to vacuum multiple times a day, swearing that you would check the water in the tree every day to make sure it was healthy, even offering to do the dishes every day for the entire month of december if you could get a real tree, just this once.

and considering sakusa has the largest soft spot for you, he caved. he also hates doing dishes, but that's beside the point.

"i want one that's healthy, one that looks full and green," he starts, shaking his head at one tree you had your eyes on. moving to the next isle, he points to a rather stout one.

"see this one? it's great. healthy, green," he reaches his hand out to shake the tree a bit, nodding when only a couple needles float to the ground. "and it's clean. but it's too short," he thinks out loud and you nod.

"yeah, i see what you mean. let's look over here omi! these ones look a little taller," you pull him toward the direction of some bigger, much more expensive christmas trees. dollar signs flash across sakusa's eyes the closer you get to the selection. nobody has been over to this row yet, based on the very vast amount that stands before him.

"y'know, it's not too late to get a fake tree. it would be a lot cheaper than one of these," he pleads, voice flat but you can tell he's getting desperate.

"omi, you promised!" you whine and he winces. he knows that, but this is turning into a bigger ordeal than he thought. in his perfect world, you would arrive, find a tree, take it home, and be done.

easier said than done, he guesses.

"oh, how's this one! i think it's tall enough," you walk up to a tree, examining it from all angles. when sakusa walks up to it, he begins his inspection. walking around the tree, looking through the branches, and shaking it a little to see how the branches react. you wince when a handful falls off.

"well there's that," he huffs. "besides that, there's a huge gap in the side."

"we can just turn it around!" you give him a weak smile and he shakes his head.

the next 10 trees went the same. you walk tree to tree, suggesting different ones, all to receive comments of the top of that one's weird and complaints of that one's too scraggly are offered with each tree. each one seems worse than the last, the last one you pointed out received an exhausted look, and a very lovely if you're going for the charlie brown look, this one's perfect.

if you would have known that he would be this picky, you wouldn't have suggested the real tree. you take a deep breath and peak at the next row of firs and give it another go.

"kiyoomi, what do you think of this one?"

right behind the direction of your pointer finger is a tree, almost the same height as a volleyball net. it's full, green, and almost picture-perfect. the type you would see in advertisements, sakusa thinks.

he reaches your side and stares up, around, and underneath the tree. not a single needle has fallen, and every section has branches that are strong and ready for any decoration you could imagine.

"i like this one. what do you think?"

you hold back your sigh of relief, letting out a laugh instead.

"i think it's perfect. i'll grab someone to help us wrap it up and put it on our car."

as you walk away, sakusa is hit with the awful realization that not only did the two of you endure this search, but a very large and sappy mess is now going to be strapped to the top of his car.

after many irritated glares shot towards the poor attendant as he very, very carefully strapped the tree to the top of sakusa's car, the two of you are free to head home.

you thought this was the last of the ordeal, but both of you forgot about the worst part: getting it into the house.

"omi, wait! i don't have a good hold on it yet!"

"sweetheart, please hurry because i can't hold on much longer," he breaths, holding on to the middle of the tree the best he can. he's sideways through the front door and nearly sweating. thankfully, you are quick to grab a good section and the two of you make your way into the living room.

you work as a team, lifting and maneuvering it until the tree has finally found it's home. once nice and secure, you grab the scissors to free the beautiful branches from it's confines.

"grab the vacuum before you do that!" your loving husband pleads as you walk away, already dreading the huge mess this is going to make. when you come back, he's already plugging it in before you make the first cut. as your scissors snap each section of twine, a few needles trickle down and onto the carpet, which sakusa sucks up immediately. once the twine is taken away, it's ready for decorations.

you work on grabbing the ornaments out of the storage containers, while sakusa unravels the lights.

"jesus christ, as if bringing this thing in wasn't a workout in itself," he groans, wrapping and re-wrapping the lights into a more practical fashion.

"it will be worth it, i promise," you assure, placing a kiss on your husband's cheek. he smiles and watches you go, using the untangled lights to work on the bottom section. you are smiling from ear to ear, fully basking in the christmas spirit the two of you have brought home.

"a little help?" you look over your shoulder at him, holding the last of the strands with a grin.

"anything for you, my love," his lips meet your forehead before getting the parts of the tree that you can't reach.

"now for the best part! you start at the top with the small ones," you hand him a small box before moving to another. "and i'll start at the bottom. we'll meet in the middle, okay?"

"okay, but no promises that this will look very good," he laughs and you roll your eyes. in a few short minutes the tree is full and shining, green branches anointed with ornaments of all shapes, a perfect array of color.

"get on my shoulders."

you place the last box back in the storage bin, before raising your eyebrow at him.

"why?"

he twirls the star in his hands before pointing to the top.

"i'm not tall enough and neither are you, babe. we can't have a tree without its topper."

you think for a second before caving. he's right, after all. it would look incomplete! he squats down as you carefully step to sit on his shoulders.

"am i going to be too hea-omi!" you cry, startled at how quick sakusa stands up, squealing once more when he spins you around for good measure.

"how's the weather up there?"

you snort before placing the star at the top, securing it before tapping your husbands shoulders.

"very sparkly. can i come down please?"

he looks up at you and shakes his head.

"not without a kiss."

you smile and bend down, placing a quick kiss on his lips. he smiles into the kiss, pulling away to bring you back to the ground.

"wow," you are amazed. the tree looks perfect.

"i get what you were saying about a real tree. it just looks so good," sakusa says, genuinely impressed with how amazing it turned out to be. you flop onto the couch behind you and sigh. you're glad to be done, despite how beautiful it is.

"well omi, what's your verdict? real or fake?"

he copies your earlier actions before pulling you to sit on his lap with a hum.

"i much prefer the ease of a fake tree over a real one," he notes and you nod in agreement. "it was much harder to find a good one too, which i didn't like."

"so, fake tree?"

he glances at the glowing tree in front of him and feels his heart warm just a little. this tree was picked out, by both of you, and decorated together, and now he has a memory to last a lifetime. your first christmas tree together. he makes a mental note to snap a photo before the day is done.

"actually, i like the real one. even though it took a long time, i really liked finding it with you," he pokes your side and earns a laugh.

"i knew it! i knew you would like it," you exclaim before poking his chest. he grabs your finger and rolls his eyes, pulling you to lay on top of him. after a few seconds of comfortable silence, you sit up.

"maybe next year, we do a fake tree. y'know, just because we may not find one as good as this."

sakusa snorts and rolls his eyes. he knew you were tired, he knew this was a lot harder than you thought. but, he doesn't mind. today was one of his favorite days, one that he will think about when he's feeling down.

"right, we can't risk that. maybe we get one now and put it in our bedroom. just to be prepared,"

you laugh, peeking up at your husband who is smirking down at you.

"sure, omi. just to be prepared."

A3! Troupe Event: MY WORST WEDDING | Event Story Translation (1/11)

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: “She is my fated partner. I was sitting next to her at the cafe, and ever since our eyes met, I knew it was what was called love at first sight.”

Izumi: (Following what we did before with Spring and Summer Troupe, the rookie Azami-kun will be the lead of Autumn Troupe’s 10th performance, Sakyo-san will be the co-lead.)

(This time, Tsuzuru-kun also came up with the script according to the lead - Azami-kun’s request but…)

Azami: “Hello? Sorry, I didn’t intend to disturb you today but… I have something needed confirming about the arrangements for tomorrow’s wedding.”

Izumi: (Indeed, I didn’t expect Taichi-kun to play a female role again in Autumn Troupe’s performance.)

Sakyo: I can still sense Noah in her nuance.

Azami: She sounds manlike.

Taichi: It’s hard to switch into a different role in an instant~!

Izumi: Well, in some ways, this role is even harder than the lead role…

(This time, Taichi-kun will play both Noah - a friend of the groom Ethan played by Azami-kun, and the marriage swindler Olivia who deceives the groom…)

(This is our troupe's very first dual role. In order to fulfill Azami-kun's request of including a role that he can put tons of makeup on, things have become like this.)

(Since we did the special makeup during the Undead performance, this time the makeup will be focused on woman, and what’s more is a bad woman who looks good with heavy makeup but...)

Taichi: This is my first time challenging to change into another role this quick so I'm really nervous!

Banri: If needed I can take on your role instead.

Taichi: Uhm... Now that I've self-run for this role, I'll do something about it...!

Juza: It's an unprecedented challenge, I think it will no doubt be a valuable experience.

Omi: He has definitely become more reliable since Zero so if it's Taichi, it'll be okay.

Taichi: Thanks y'all! I'll do my best to make A-chan fall in love at first glance!

Azami: Well... Good luck.

Sakyo: Bon too, you're the one to talk. In the scene where Ethan talks about Olivia as usual, I can't feel the yearning love for his beloved fiancée Olivia.

Azami: Not really... That scene is good. I'm gonna be betrayed in marriage fraud after all.

Sakyo: That’s why it is unnecessary. The play won’t be convincing unless the audience can understand you’re so blindly in love that you’re being scammed.

Azami: —No matter what you say ‘bout l-love, I just don’t get it—.

Izumi: (For Azami-kun who is not good at talking about love, playing a role who is obsessed with his fiancée might be indeed difficult.)

(At first we had a discussion about the wedding theme for this play, but Azami-kun said love stories were impossible for him, so we changed to the marriage fraud.)

(Although the main focus of this play is the action battle with a criminal organization that has the marriage swindler in, Ethan’s feelings are also important…)

(Compared to that, James - another groom who is also deceived by Olivia, played by Sakyo-san, is perfect. Maybe that’s the difference in life experience.)

Banri: Well, isn’t it impossible for Azami to fall for Olivia now? He’s Taichi no matter how you look at.

Taichi: With A-chan’s makeup after this, I’m gonna turn into a really beautiful villainess as planned~!

Banri: Come to think of it, I had thought of how the quick change would be done, but that’s surely a problem.

Izumi: In the last part, Taichi-kun will be changing from Noah to Olivia, right.

Banri: We have consulted with Tsuzuru about some script adjustments but still can’t carve out time for Azami to directly do the makeup for Taichi.

Omi: Ethan and James also have to change their costumes quickly…

Juza: Noah can’t come out with Olivia’s makeup from the beginning…

Azami: Then, going with the makeup plan I’ve come up with, Taichi-san will have no choice but to do the makeup on his own.

Izumi: Is that okay? Since you wanted to do lots of makeup in this performance.

Azami: Coming up with the makeup plan is also fun, so it’s okay. Instead, I’m gonna go with Spartan mode to train Taichi-san so that he can redo the makeup perfectly.

Taichi: That’s def out of question~! It’s already up to my neck just quick changing between two roles though, I’m not confident that I can do the makeup on my own!

Izumi: Right, it seems like you would be overwhelmed a bit.

Banri: I’ll go back to the wing at the same time as Taichi, so I’ll lend you a hand with the makeup and quick-change.

Taichi: Banchan~! You saved me!

Sakyo: If that’s the dexterous Settsu then there seems to be no problem.

Azami: I’m enthusiastic about the makeup this time, so Banri-san too, please keep that in mind.

Banri: Go easy on me.

Izumi: Azami-kun, how is the hair makeup plan going?

Azami: I’m thinking about various hair arrangements for each character, including Olivia’s wig.

This time performance is set in America, but I’m worried since it might be difficult for the audience to get a grasp on the worldview if I have my hair black as the main character.

Taichi: If that’s the case, how about you dye your hair blonde like Sakyo-nii?

Juza: It’s gonna match with Sakyo-san.

Omi: It might look good when you two line up.

Banri: It’s a relationship that they’re gonna fight over Olivia, isn’t that good to have a sense of rivalry between them.

Azami: I definitely don’t want to match with that person.

Sakyo: Ha… If so, what color are you going to choose?

Azami: There are bunch of wigs from the past performances in the warehouse, so I’ll have a look.

Izumi: Got it. Then let me know when you decide.

*Short time skip*

Izumi: Well then, that’s all for today’s practice. Tomorrow will be a day off, so take a good rest you guys.

Omi: Taichi and Juza are going back to their homes, right?

Juza: Yes. My mom’s birthday is getting near.

Taichi: For me, my sister asked me to hang out with her once in a while.

Sakyo: I’ll be going back to my home tomorrow too, so I’ll be away from the dorm.

Izumi: Sakyo-san too?

Juza: It’s been a while.

Sakyo: It will be bothersome if I don’t go home once in a while.

Juza: …That’s good. The old lady will be happy, too.

Sakyo: …

Bon, you should show your face at home more. You haven’t been home lately, have you.

Azami: Annoying—

…Well, I want to see everyone at Ginsenkai though, I think it’s time to go back home.

A3! Usui Masumi - Translation [SSR] Haunted Butler (1/3)

*Please read disclaimer on blog

---

Masumi: *Achoo*.

Tsuzuru: Are you okay?

Masumi: It’s nothing.

Tsuzuru: That’s good. But it’s been getting a lot cooler these days. Be careful not to catch a cold.

Masumi: …

Tsuzuru: What’s up? You went silent all of a sudden. Do you actually have a cold?

Masumi: That’s not it. More importantly, Director might’ve caught a cold instead. I’m worried, so I’ll go check up on her.

Tsuzuru: Ah, I see… Director looked fine when I saw her this morning. I’m sure there’s nothing to worry about.

Masumi: Even though she looked well in the morning, her condition might’ve changed now.

*knock, knock*

Tsuzuru: Hm? It sounds like someone’s here.

Masumi: Could it be…

*door opens*

Manager: Ah. I’m glad I found you two in your room!

Masumi: …

*closes door*

Manager: EHH!? Why’d you close the door!

Masumi: You weren’t Director. Duh.

Manager: Geez! Anyways, we have something very important to discuss, so please make your way to the lounge right away!

Masumi: Director has something important for me… I have to hurry.

Tsuzuru: Hold on. It’s close to that time of the year, so it’s possible Director’s not involved…

*door closes*

Tsuzuru: And he’s gone already.

-pause-

Masumi: Director’s not here…

Tsuzuru: I told you so.

Kazunari: Massu, Tsuzurun. What’s hanging!

Kamekichi: Everyone’s here now!

Manager: It looks like it!

Masumi: Manager tricked me.

Yuki: Did he tell you Director was here?

Masumi: …No.

Yuki: Uh huh. That’s what I thought.

Masumi: If Director’s not here then I’m going back to my room.

Manager: Please wait! Director’s going to be coming a little late. Plus I have some reeeally important business to talk about!

Yuki: So, what’s this important business?

Manager: Well, it’s…

Kazunari & Manager & Kamekichi: HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Itaru: Their energy is giving me déjà vu…

Banri: It’s always like this at Halloween.

Masumi: What a pain…

Hisoka: Those three sure love partying and they love Halloween…

Manager: For this year’s Halloween, instead of Veludo Way Halloween… I wanted to hold a special event as MANKAI Company too!

Tsuzuru: A special event…?

Kazunari: We’ve been sound boarding with Director-chan over the idea of having everyone do street acts while wearing costumes.

Kamekichi: We’ll announce it on inste too!

Kazunari: It’s a great chance, so why don’t we celebrate Halloween with all our fans? That being said, since it was decided on short notice, we’re just gonna ask those who can fit it in their schedules to join in this time.

Manager: And so, that’s why I called all of you guys over!

Sakuya: Wow, that sounds wonderful!

Omi: I think it’s a great idea too.

Kumon: Dressing up sounds fun!

Sakuya: What are you going to do, Masumi-kun?

Masumi: Count me out.

Manager: Say what!?

Event | Ayakashi Summer Festival | Chapter 4

Banri: Huh, an ayakashi-themed theater contest led by GOD-za and MANKAI Company. Sounds interestin’.

Yuki: An ayakashi theme gives me an excuse to make nice, fancy costumes, so I’m all for it.

Taichi: Uuueh~, I wish I coulda been in the contest~!

Tsumugi: With the script and awards, it’s a lot different from the usual, so I’m sure the attendees will love it.

Sakuya: But it’s such a shame that there’s a scriptwriting award and Tsuzuru-kun can’t participate.

Muku: Eh, Tsuzuru-san can’t participate?

Masumi: He was asked to write a script for Syu’s theater. The deadline for it is coming up.

Muku: Ah, so that’s why he can’t participate.

Izumi: We were considering not entering the contest because of those circumstances, but…

Azuma: The people in the shopping district said they would make it work for the sake of the special stage.

Muku: That’s great!

Misumi: I was happy to hear that too~!

Yuki: How’s that going to work?

Omi: As soon as Director found out, she contacted Tsuzuru to talk about it.

Izumi: When I explained it to Tsuzuru-kun, he was happy to hear that the people in the shopping district were looking forward to a play by us since he’s so familiar with a lot of them.

Izumi: He said he’d be willing to write for it as long as it was shorter than the usual contest.

Tsumugi: So we’ll be able to do the special stage then?

Guy: Yes, we’ll do a play during the festival to see who wins the prize.

Banri: Gotcha. Well, guess if Tsuzuru’s wantin’ to write it, I’m guessin’ it’ll be pretty damn good.

Sakuya: I’m a little worried about him overworking himself, but I also wanna make sure to take Tsuzuru-kun’s feelings into consideration!

Masumi: I’ll make sure to keep an eye on him.

Sakuya: Yeah, please do!

Tsumugi: I’m looking forward to Tsuzuru-kun participating in another scriptwriting competition.

Yuki: And what about GOD-za? Are they entering?

Guy: Asuka and the others were saying that if MANKAI doesn’t participate, GOD-za wouldn’t either.

Hisoka: Both Misumi and the people from the shopping district hoped that both troupes would participate since it’d be more exciting that way.

Izumi: So we asked GOD-za to enter the contest too.

Omi: We’re also going to help the staff out with the stalls on the day of the festival.

Sakuya: Really!? I can’t wait to see how the festival turns out!

· • —– ٠ ✤ ٠ —– • ·

Misumi: Ah, it’s Haruto~!

Haruto: So you three are attending the meeting today, huh?

Azuma: Yes. Are you the only one from GOD-za here?

Haruto: Yeah. Shift’s working today.

Guy: Working? I guess that’s unavoidable.

Summer Festival Organizer: Well then, let’s start the meeting. Today I’d like to discuss the overall decoration theme and…

Summer Festival Organizer: Let’s also discuss the theater contest that we landed on last time and what kind of awards we’ll give out besides awards for the script.

Misumi: Kaaay, let’s do it!

· • —– ٠ ✤ ٠ —– • ·

Summer Festival Organizer: Thank you all for sharing your opinions.

Summer Festival Organizer: For the contest, there will be an award for excellence, an award for best leading actor, best script, and an award for making everyone smile.

Summer Festival Organizer: We’ll discuss prizes the next time, so please bring your ideas.

Summer Festival Organizer: That’s it for today. Good work, everyone.

Azuma: Good work today.

Guy: Let’s go back and convey the contents of today’s meeting to everyone. Fushimi, Mikage, and Usui are supposed to attend next time.

Azuma: Yes, let’s.

Misumi: Let’s think of ideas for the contest reward until the next meeting~!

Haruto: Hey, that reminds me. Did you happen to propose the idea of a writing contest because of Madoka?

Misumi: Ehehe, yeah~.

Haruto: Thought so.

Haruto: Well, Madoka’s working on the script right now, so you can give him your support.

Misumi: Really!? Thanks for telling me!

Misumi: I’ll send a LIME to Madoka when we get home~.

Misumi: (I haven’t picked up the stuff I forgot yet, so I’ll go see him on a day I don’t have to work or go to a meeting.)

· • —– ٠ ✤ ٠ —– • ·

Izumi: The script for the summer festival performance is done, so I’ll pass out copies now.

Hisoka: That was fast.

Azuma: Oh? The script is thicker than I expected.

Izumi: He said that as he was writing, he found lots of inspiration he wanted to use and the script ended up being about as long as the usual ones.

Omi: Is Tsuzuru okay?

Masumi: I let him sleep all day yesterday, so he’s fine now. He’s starting on the script for Syu today.

Guy: Hm, I see that the cast has already been decided on.

Izumi: This time, Tsuzuru-kun wrote the script with who would play what ayakashi in mind beforehand.

Izumi: Misumi-kun is a daidarabotchi, Guy-san is a daija, Hisoka-san is a kogitsune, Masumi-kun is a tanuki, Omi-kun is a tsuchigumo…

Izumi: And finally, Azuma-san is the human, Yuuma.

Azuma: I thought I would be playing an ayakashi too, but I’m playing a human… And a chef too.

Izumi: Actually, Tsuzuru-kun and I talked about that.

Izumi: Since you can easily capture the atmosphere of an ayakashi… This time we decided to give you the human role instead, Azuma-san.

Azuma: I see. So there’s only one human role in this story then? Fufu, in that case, I’m looking forward to it.

Izumi: I’m also really looking forward to you taking on this sort of role,

Izumi: Alright then, let’s start our first read-through.

· • —– ٠ ✤ ٠ —– • ·

Madoka: The building blocks are over here.

Misumi: Kaay.

Misumi: Hey, hey, Madoka, is writing for the contest going well?

Madoka: Yes. Thanks to the support you gave me through LIME, I was able to get it completed early. GOD-za is already doing rehearsals.

Madoka: How’s MANKAI Company doing?

Misumi: We’re already rehearsing too~!

Madoka: I see, do your best during rehearsals, Nii-san.

Misumi: Ehehe, thanks to you, I’ll be able to do my best-est best!

A3! Event Story Translation “Moon Traveler” - Chapter 6

Citron asks Chikage about his roots this time around.

Citron

I am quite hungry from all this rehearsing.

Izumi

Omi-kun said he’s gonna make pasta for dinner tonight. There’s also Napolitan and some spicy arrabbiata.

Sakuya

Really!

Chikage

I’m looking forward to it.

Tsuzuru

I’m glad Fushimi-san cooks for us during rehearsals to cheer us on.

Izumi

It was kata yakisoba last time.

Guy

Nice work.

Izumi

Huh? Guy-san?

Guy

Daily delivery from Zahra.

Citron

Ohh, how early!

Sakuya

Woah, what a big box!

Guy

There’s another box, I’ll go get it.

Citron

It will be heavy. Chikage and I will go and take care of it.

Guy will hand out the contents of the box.

Guy

Understood.

Izumi

Oh, this is the candy I had before, it’s pretty tasty.

Sakuya

What about this one?

Guy

A health product. It can help massage your back.

Tsuzuru

T-this is great!

Chikage

So it's heavy. What’s in it?

Citron

A special gift for Chikage.

Chikage

?

Chikage

This box is just the same size as the other one.

Citron

I will hold it! Be careful not to feign your back!

Chikage

Sprain.

Chikage

Yeah, it’s pretty heavy… Are these books? I hope it’s spice.

Citron

It is a surprise!

Chikage

Books or spices… Maybe both.

Citron

How amazing Chikage.

Chikage

Maybe it’s the spice I’ve been wondering about.

Citron

Mix it with honey for throat care.

Chikage

That’s perfect for when I’m rehearsing. I’ll give it a try later.

This book is…

Citron

It is the novel adaptation of the movie that the play is based on.

Chikage

The Zahran version is pretty rare. I’ve never seen it before.

Citron

I had quite the difficult time finding it since it is an old book, but it is a gift to commemorate your lead role.

Chikage

Thanks. I hope my linguistic skills are good enough for me to read it.

Citron

《 ... The current Chikage shouldn’t have a problem with that.》

《Even when we first met, everyday conversation went swimmingly, but now you’re as close as one can get to a native speaker.》

Chikage

《What an honor to get the minister’s approval.》

Citron

《... Chikage, how and why do you speak so many languages?》

Chikage

《Will that be your question?》

Citron

《That’s right.》

《I’ve studied languages of many countries for diplomacy purposes since I was a child, but it’s difficult to master them completely.》

《Even if it’s a language used in other countries, it’s still a minor language that’s only widely used in the country of Zahra.》

《I assume you’re familiar with other languages as well?》

《If you don’t mind to tell me, I’d like to know if this ability of yours is a natural talent or it comes from your roots.》

Chikage

《...》

《You can say my upbringing was a big part of it.》

《My hometown was filled with people from all over the world.》

《We had a common language, but we all had different roots, and we all cherished those roots.》

《People with the same roots would speak their native tongue, so I naturally got used to hearing it, and they’d happily obliged if I asked them to teach me.》

《Of course it’s still difficult to master, but I think that’s the reason why I’m better at it compared to most people.》

Citron

《Wow, compared to all those languages, which ones did you find most interesting?》

Chikage

《Each country is interesting in its own way, but right now, the first thing I’m thinking of are the Nordic languages.》

《There are many words pronounced similarly to how you’d say it in Japanese, but they have completely different meanings.》

《As an example, “Kani” there means “Rabbit”*》

Citron

《”Kani” is rabbit? That’s interesting!》

《Then, how do you say “Dream” in that language?》

Chikage

《”Dream”, that is…》

Citron

Thank you for answering my questions!

Chikage

I don’t think there’d be many situations to use what I told you.

Citron

——Chikage.

Chikage

?

Citron

《It was nice to know about your roots today. Let’s both cherish our roots and look after one another even when we’re far from our homeland.》

Chikage.

——.

Citron

Goodnight to you.

Chikage

… Night.

Izumi

Good morning.

Chikage

Morning. Is that turmeric?

Izumi

I was just preparing today’s supper.

Chikage

You could use some of the spices I got from Citron the other day.

Izumi

I’d love to!

In our recent rehearsals, your performance as Roberto has been improving bit by bit. I’d say he’s gone more soft, or rather, more honest.

Fufu, must be the effect of Spring troupe’s Q&A.

Chikage

I guess so.

However, I think it’s better to be like “I got no idea what this guy is thinking” when it comes to that role.

Izumi

You got a point there…

The way that Roberto tries his best to understand those around him to work together to make the project a success,

I think it’ll be relatable for the audience.

Chikage

I see.

Izumi

That’s why, please continue with your “role-playing” as you are.

Chikage

Role-playing, right.

Izumi

Speaking of, have you decided on a name for the aliens?

Chikage

I’ve been thinking a lot about it, I just can’t seem to make my mind. I was thinking it’s time to ask everyone’s opinion on it.

Izumi

Fufu, it’s rare to see you so indecisive like this. I’m looking forward to what you come up with.

________T/Ns:________

"Kani" in Japanese means crab, but the language Chikage is referencing is Finnish, where "Kani" means rabbit.

yoisami’s first random event — request no. 2 (@iluvies)

# COLOUR YOUR LOVE !

notes from saki: thank u for participating, luvie ! i’m so sorry for accidentally posting it before ;-; but here u go (this is the legitimate thing hehe). also u and omi are v cute—i can see y’all being the shy lead couple in a shoujo anime or smth ╮⁠(⁠.⁠ ⁠❛⁠ ⁠ᴗ⁠ ⁠❛⁠.⁠)⁠╭

[૮₍ ˃ࡇ˂ ₎ა]: THE COLOUR THAT BEST DESCRIBES YOU AND SAKUSA KIYOOMI’S RELATIONSHIP WOULD BE...

OMPHALODES COLOUR HEX CODE: #ADCFDF

૮(ˊ ᵔ ˋ)ა 💭: the kind of love that you share with sakusa is quiet and pretty private. it’s the type of relationship that seems like only one party is putting effort, but that is not the case. this relationship is meaningful, affectionate in the subtle ways, and special. it’s just like the ocean when it’s at its calmest state, and it’s like reading poetry beneath the spring sun.

SO... WHY OMPHALODES?

right off the bat, i can confirm that this relationship between you and sakusa would not be a loud, boisterous type. and there is nothing wrong with that—in fact, you may prefer a quiet relationship more because it doesn’t wear down both your energies as introverts. this relationship seems like it would be the one you would want to return home to after a long, tiring day. it’s a firm hug, and a breathy “well done, i’m proud of you” that you come home to. like omphalodes, the way you and sakusa express your love to each other calm—it isn’t through shouting “i love you” across the street, but is through delicate hand-holding, head resting on the other’s shoulder, and gentle kisses on the temple.

omphalodes is a light colour, but it is somewhat dark in terms of tones. i feel like it took a few challenges for you and sakusa to get together. sakusa, an athlete who really cares about his performance in volleyball, may have been unwilling to commit to a romantic relationship with you at the beginning. he could have considered relationships a distraction to his volleyball career, and i feel like he would have thought that being a boyfriend meant that he would have more responsibilities to take on (e.g. satisfying you, caring for you). but overtime, after spending some more time with you, he would have realised that a romantic relationship isn’t a responsibility, but is a journey that he wants to embark on with you.

also, in this relationship, you would definitely be the one to carry all conversations. considering that you tend to be louder around those you are close to, i believe that you would be the “lalalala” to sakusa’s “okokokok”. i think he would prefer to listen to you too—he seems like the type to fall in love with someone because of their voice (yours!). when you’ve come home from a tough day, he would automatically open his arms to you, waiting for you to jump into his space and rant about all the bad things that happened.

i feel like fights between the two of you could be really intense. the fact that sakusa is a naturally blunt/honest person, and that you dislike it when people insult your efforts, could result in a nasty dispute. i can picture something like this happening: you’ve come home early from work to cook a homemade meal for sakusa, but when he returns, he simply declines and says he’s tired. you understand, but you’re also trying to get him to have a taste of it after all your effort, and sakusa views it annoying that you’re “nagging” him—an argument could ensue. and i believe that after arguments, it would be sakusa who tries to patch things up. he’s not great at heartfelt apologies, and it might just come out as a stiff and awkward “i’m sorry”. but as his partner for however many years, you can feel his sincerity, and you forgive each other.

#୨୧ COLOUR YOUR LOVE ! event

[macbetha]

preview of four of hoards, a haikyuu au - kiyoomi x kenma (sakuken?) / ossaka - omegaverse / royalty / fantasy + shifters / dragon king omi / panther shifter kenma

As a dragon, Kiyoomi has always been warned about flying too close to the sun. With life comes bright, golden lies he’ll want to chase, but he must reign his focus on the gold in his hoard - for that is what makes the sun rise and fall in a world of dragons. But Kenma’s eyes are gold like sunstone and no dragon can fly higher than Kiyoomi. Or: A Hades and Persephone AU - what if Hades left the underworld to join Persephone in her springland home?

Preview below the cut!

Kiyoomi loathes regions of eternal summer with a special kind of repugnance, yet he’s the guest of honor at a mid-year wedding in the desert.

The desert sand at the stronghold of the Black Jackal seems to magnetize to him. This event also happens to be a Miya affair: a nine-day celebration, which is tradition in these parts. Nine days of nauseating comradery and glutinous posturing.

It’s all for the nine-tailed marriage goddess the twins and their people worship. Kiyoomi’s own physician will be one of those people soon. It’s hard to swallow.

Kiyoomi soldiers on for Akaashi’s sake. He has enough to worry about with final preparations and trying to persuade Osamu to save some things for their wedding. Osamu has already spoiled Akaashi as any king should when it comes to their intended, but Osamu is still an alpha.

Resisting the urge to bite is nearly impossible once an omega has given permission. Osamu is devoted to his regional traditions but the rule about waiting until the ceremony to bite might just do the fox king in. Oikawa has assured Kiyoomi it will be a delicious scandal.

Kiyoomi takes it upon himself to gather the flowers Akaashi wants at the ceremony. The gardens are indoors, and Kiyoomi feared he was going to step into a claustrophobic nightmare, but he shouldn’t have let the term “indoor” deter him from finding the gardens quicker.

Kiyoomi expected some flowerbeds, perhaps a fountain – not a landscape that rivals the size of a gladiatorial arena. There’s enough space for hills to stretch out pillowed by wildflowers. The air is candied, pure.

Clean waterways and spotless paths make Kiyoomi almost salivate; this trip has been nothing but sandy grime. To make matters more enriching, an oversized sundial floats midair. The dial ticks as sunlight moves through the glass ceiling.

Kiyoomi can admit he’s dazzled. Rainbow phoenixes soar overhead, teleporting across the gardens in a fiery burst, and his brain quickly stops feeling like a pulled muscle.

He tucks his basket at his elbow and follows one of the irrigation rivers with his list in hand. Koi fish trail after him, hoping for a snack. Akaashi was thoughtful enough to add rough sketches of the flowers he needs, but Kiyoomi has no clue where to find individual blooms.

He isn’t too concerned. This isn’t the worst place to get lost and better odds have tried to keep him from certain treasures in his hoard. He’s never failed in that category.

Hours pass in which Kiyoomi’s natural curiosity implores him to rest on the ground and study certain plants. He can’t name many of them. Some petals are so vibrant, it’s hard to settle on which color best describes them. These ponderings don’t weaken the happiness in him.

Gradually, he finds what Akaashi needs. Kiyoomi is quite disappointed as he reaches the end of his list. The light around him deepens with the sunset’s crimson flares. The glass ceiling opens with a mechanical groan and the phoenixes fly through for their nightly hunt.

Kiyoomi’s pointed ear twitches when music starts up somewhere outside. Dinner is about to start. He sighs profusely. His hold tightens on his flower basket, and he heads in the general direction of where he came from.

Kiyoomi tries so hard to commit all his senses to memory: the moonlight is soft and pearly, the breeze sharpening as it rips through the flowers to push Kiyoomi’s curls back. He stumbles to a stop and looks around, horns illuminating the night. Kiyoomi breathes in deeply.

His wings arc to attention. Kiyoomi studies the flow of wind through the flowers to track its path. He follows the push to the north section of the garden. Suddenly, all the perfumes around him are annoying. He can’t name the smell the wind brought to him.

He can’t even describe it or fully remember it from that initial whiff just a few moments ago. It was just… new, odd. Maybe even good. Something about it makes Kiyoomi hungry. He’s never eaten as indulgently as he needs to right now.

He wants to slash his arm across a table and push over the frilly centerpieces, wants to eat with the candlesticks overturned and the curtains burning. He wants to rip his teeth through fruit flesh and salted meat, wants to be so fucking greedy -

What is he even searching for? A particularly smelly flower? It wouldn’t be right to take one when it wasn’t on Akaashi’s list, and it wouldn’t live long. The air shifts in another direction and Kiyoomi breathes, tongue light on his bottom lip. His fangs ache in his jaw.

It's not a flower but by the gods, Kiyoomi wants it. He alters his path and walks up a steep hill. He can’t explain why he’s creeping along and being mindful of his steps while his heart urges him to hurry.

That scent clings to his open mouth. His wings move on their own, spreading to catch attention and impress. He drops the flower basket. Kiyoomi is passed deciphering these responses; he must train his eyes on the source of it all.

White flowers glow over the hilltop – moonflowers yawning awake and twisting in their search for nocturnal light. Kiyoomi finds it before the flowers do.

Cloud-cover allows only a blade of moonlight over the hill, yet an omega found it perfectly and decided to nap there. Curled up on his side with his arms folded under his cheek, he is incredibly small to have such powerful pheromones.

The skirt twisted up around the omega’s knees is patterned in golds and reds Kiyoomi should recognize as the colors of a certain noble house, but right now, he is missing the faintest memory that could remind him what the world was like before this moment.

He can’t describe the omega’s scent, but Kiyoomi eats it up with gluttonous vigor. This is what red would smell like, he thinks: warm, deep, disarming. That scent is melting into Kiyoomi’s very pores and his skin tingles as his own pheromones flare in kind.

The omega’s nose twitches as he sniffs. His eyelids flicker before bolting open. The omega loops to his feet quicker than Kiyoomi’s eyes can follow. They watch each other with abundant confirmation that the omega thinks he’s about to become some sort of prey.

Kiyoomi tips his head to the side, showing his neck as if he’s ever done it before. The omega’s breath rasps to a complete halt. His tension eases a bit, as does the warning in his smell. His sunstone gaze is calculated enough to leave Kiyoomi feeling dissected.

Kiyoomi is willing, keeping his neck arched with his head bowed in submission to ensure the omega no harm will come to him. Kiyoomi peeks up from keeping his eyes low to the ground. A flush pulses down the omega’s throat.

His small hands lower from their crooked defensive position to wring together. He combs through the long hair at his hip before tucking some behind his ear. The omega hesitates, lips parting as if he’ll grace Kiyoomi with an apology, a word, anything -

He darts away, fleeing so gracefully the flowers aren’t even disturbed. Kiyoomi’s wings fall as he pants, lightheaded. One hand finds the earth where he sinks and the other touches his chest. He feels the wardrum of his heartbeat through his shirt, his glove.

Kiyoomi rises to his feet and wavers. He walks closer to the omega’s napping spot and toes the plate of crackers and cheese. A sticky knife and spoon are nearby. Bloody fruit juice splatters the grass and Kiyoomi crouches, following the trail to an opened pomegranate.

Kiyoomi takes off his glove and scoops into it with two fingers. He touches them to his tongue, but the sweetness does not ease his frustrations - it just enhances the fact he could have handled that interaction better in a hundred different ways.

Motoya’s forcing their familial bond open like he’s trying to kick in a fucking door. Kiyoomi hurries to find his basket at the bottom of the hill. He struggles to gather himself. This isn’t the first time he’s needed to be alone to process something and can’t.

This won’t be the last time he doesn’t get what he needs. Kiyoomi’s snarl flashes in the moonlight as his wings beat and rip flowers from the earth. He launches toward the open ceiling.

A3! Izumida Azami | SR - Banquet of Blooming | Translation

Special thanks to Noodle for helping me with the proofreading!

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

Disclaimer: Neither English nor Japanese is my native language, but I did my best with the translation. If you find any mistakes, feel free to tell me. By the way, Director’s name will be Izumi.

Starring “Azami” / 1

Azami: Next up is to buy more foundation… Izumi: Who will you apply this eyeshadow to? Azami: That’s for the undead. It gives a more realistic touch when you apply it around the eyes. Azami: By the way, I can create a fine pale condition overlapping these two lipsticks. Izumi: I understand… Izumi: (Indeed, I can learn about makeup if I come shopping with Azami.) Izumi: …Ah, this is a nice color. Azami: Glitter makeup isn’t used for stages. No one has sparkling eyelids naturally. Azami: Stage makeup is not there for decoration. It has to go with the role, yadda, yadda—. Izumi: (Fufu, Azami-kun definitely becomes talkative when it comes to makeup.) Izumi: The guests might be happy if you talk like this in the screening event’s talk show. Azami: You think so? Well, I can say a lot if it’s about this. Azami: …Hm? That over there, is a space featuring new makeup products? Izumi: Ah, you’re right. Azami: Heh, there are many displayed. Director, lend me your face for a bit. Izumi: (Saying no doesn’t seem to be an option…) Izumi: Yes, sure. Azami: Thank you. Azami: …Yeah, looks good. Izumi: Wow, it’s a lovely color… Azami: Well, the model makes it look like that too. Izumi: Fufu. That sounds like something Kazunari would say. Azami: Hah? At least compare me to Banri-san. I meant it matches the model’s skin tone… Izumi: Yeah, I know. Azami: … Azami: …Let’s buy this. Izumi: Are you going to apply it to someone? Azami: That’s not the reason for it. I simply liked it, and maybe I could use it one day. Azami: Besides, that shitty cheapskate Sakyo won’t notice it if we buy it together. Izumi: Ahaha. There’s no other way, then. I’ll keep this a secret.

Izumi: You’re in a good mood, Azami-kun. Azami: I managed to get everything I needed more of, and was able to get some new stuff too. Taichi: Huh?! Aren’t those Director-sensei and A-chan?! Banri: Hey, good work today! Are you on your way back from shopping? Izumi: Yes, we are. Taichi: Nice timing, you two! We’re going to karaoke, do you want to join us? Azami: Karaoke…? - phone rings - Azami: Hm? Azami: Hello? …Ooh, good day. Azami: Now? I see… Wait a little bit. Azami: Sorry, Taichi-san, Banri-san. I got a call from a friend asking me to hang out now. Azami: He has been busy lately, and we haven’t met at all. So I thought I’d go with him… Taichi: Oh, don’t worry about that. It’s all good! We’ll invite you again another day! Banri: I got it. In exchange, you’ll have to show us a freestyle rap next time we go to karaoke. Izumi: Sounds good. I want to listen to it too. Azami: What with that? Azami: But, thank you. I’ll go with him today. Azami: Still there, Shifuto? I’m heading there now. See you later. Izumi: (This Shifuto-kun… If I’m not wrong, he’s Azami’s childhood friend.) Azami: Then, I’m on my way to the station. Taichi: Good luck~! Have fun~! Azami: Sure. Same to you. Izumi: Take care.

Azami: Thanks for coming to the DEAD/UNDEAD screening event. I’m Azami Izumida. I play Abel’s role. Banri: I’m Ivan’s actor, Banri Settsu. Glad to be here today. Omi: I'm the one who plays Red’s role, Omi Fushimi. A pleasure. Banri: —Then, let’s start the talk now to not lose time. First… were there any struggles for this play? Azami: A lot. Omi: Haha, many things happened. Banri: One that we can talk about here, please. Omi: In that case, how about the makeup for us? Banri: You two have the zombie makeup today too. Azami: Applying a not-so-grotesque wound and bruise makeup alone to four people was a real struggle. Banri: Of course, I understand that doing it is tough, but getting it done was unexpectedly hard too. Omi: Since the makeup takes time, we had to come here early for the matinees. Banri: And if we moved, even a little, Azami would get mad at us, so we had to fight against our drowsiness. Banri: Taichi got yelled at too many times to remember. Omi: Hahaha. Yeah, that happened. Azami: No, really. Don’t sleep while you’re getting your makeup done. Omi: But what’s amazing about Azami isn’t just how he can do makeup but how that makeup keeps changing. Banri: Even in one performance, it changes as the scenes progress. Azami: When your acting changes on stage, the role starts to change. Azami: And those changes have to be reflected in the makeup too. Like the eyeshadow or the cheeks.  Azami: But since that was my first stage, I couldn’t do much there. Azami: When I think about it now, it makes me wonder if I should have done more of this or maybe like this… Omi: We’re looking forward to how your makeup direction will change for future performances. Banri: Well, that means the growth of the youngest member is a highlight for the autumn troupe.

Starring “Azami” / 2

Izumi: Good work on the talk show! It was very worth listening to and fun. Izumi: Then, Azami-kun, next is… Azami: That shitty Sakyo’s plan for an Instax photo to give as a present. Azami: I know, so let me retouch the makeup first. Izumi: Fufu, despite saying it like that, you’re diligent in retouching your makeup. That’s admirable. Azami: That’s because you can’t edit an Instax. …Okay, guess this is fine. Izumi: Are you ready? Then, I’ll take it. 3, 2, 1!  Izumi: Yes, looks good! Banri: GJ. Banri: Oh, an Instax? Omi: Yeah, the present that we talked about before. Let’s see it. Azami: Hey, don’t just take a peek at it. Banri: This is a present for the fans, isn’t it? Smile a bit more. Omi: Haha. But that feels more Azami-like, and he shows a good expression. Izumi: It’s a cool snap. Banri: I should send it to Sakyo-san. Azami: Haah? Don’t you dare. Banri: It’s just a joke. Izumi: We’ll close the theater soon, so go and change your clothes. Omi: Aah, gotcha.

Izumi: Well, since I finished these documents early, I might watch an online movie before going to sleep. Izumi: …Ah, this is the sequel of the zombie movie the autumn troupe watched for their undead performance’s role study. Izumi: …What should I do? Sounds a bit scary to watch it alone at night, but I’m curious about the continuation. Okay, I’m doing it. Izumi: … - dream starts - Izumi: Hm… Izumi: …? This is… Izumi: (This feels like a gloomy and uncanny place…) Izumi: (But hey, the atmosphere of a ghost town scenery… it’s similar to the undead performance set. But can it really be…) Izumi: (...! Are these footsteps from an undead…?!) Izumi: (W-What should I do…?) ???: … Izumi: — ???: …You there. Who are you? Izumi: What…? Izumi: (It’s Abel…?! Aah, thank you…!) Abel: I came back ‘cause I got the feeling Red would reappear in these ruins… Abel: I lost sight of Ivan on the way, and here’s a woman unaware of the situation. Sigh… what a day. Izumi: S-Sorry for that… Izumi: (Ah… Abel’s arm scar… Azami-kun paid close attention to it for this special effects makeup.) Izumi: Ahm… since we met like this, could I see your scar? Abel: Hah? What do you mean by since we met like this— Izumi: So amazing! How impressive, Azami-kun. A unique and realistic makeup… Abel: What are you saying? Hey, let me go…! Izumi: Sorry, sorry. Izumi: (This side of him is a bit similar to Azami-kun.) Abel: W-What with this woman…? Ivan: Hey, Abel? Are you here? Abel: …My partner is calling me. Abel: Anyway, let’s get out of here. Come on. Izumi: —

Izumi: …! Izumi: So it was all a dream? - knock knock - Izumi: ? I’m coming. Azami: Director, can you spare me a moment? Izumi: What is it? Azami: I came up with a makeup style using the cosmetic we bought. Can I try it on you? 

Choice 1: Are you sure? 

Izumi: Sure, I don’t mind. But… are you sure about trying it on me? Azami: I bought it with Director’s skin color in mind. Azami: No, it’s not like I bought it for you or because I wanted to apply it on you…! Azami: But when you tried it in the selling place, you looked pretty good. …It just suited you. Azami: S-So, if it’s alright, I’m gonna try it out. Izumi: Fufu, okay. I get it. 

Choice 2: I’m curious to see how it will be. 

Izumi: I’m curious to see what kind of makeup you will do. Azami: I came up with some combinations.  Azami: If I paired it with this, it might give a nice natural feeling. But if I paired it with this other, it might give a different atmosphere from your usual... Azami: Thinking about Director’s makeup is truly fun. That’s why I want to try all the makeup styles I thought of on y— Azami: Ah, f-forget that! Izumi: ?

Izumi: Ah, but I woke up from a nap just a while ago, and I have this just woke up look… Azami: Oh, you do seem a bit sleepy. Azami: But your skin tone is okay. Perfect. Izumi: (When you put it like that I can’t say anything back…) Azami: Now, I will start. Close your eyes. Izumi: Okay. Then, I’ll leave it to you.

[RGG Online Translation] Boss Rush Event · Ravenous Beasts, Greedy Monsters (Ichiban & Miss Tatsu)

Summary: Ichiban is approached by Miss Tatsu, who is looking for help with a particularly strange debt collection. All of her colleagues have attempted to collect the debt, but have come back mauled, as if besieged by a savage beast... Featured Characters: Ichiban Kasuga (RGGO version), Miss Tatsu, Hirata, Tiger, Teru Yamada (OC) Spoilers?: There’s a few light references to another story from RGGO, but they’re not really spoilers.

On this episode, Ichiban and Miss Tatsu team up to fight a tiger, and I’ve never wanted anything more in my life.

In case you’ve forgotten who Hirata is (which is completely understandable) he’s somewhat notable for being the first enemy you ever fight in the whole series: Kiryu is introduced collecting a loan from him in Yakuza 1. Hirata resisted, so Kiryu did as Kiryu does.

Usual Disclaimer: I'm coming at this with little more than crude Japanese knowledge, a machine translation cocktail, and an insatiable desire for more RGG content. This will by no means be a decent translation, but it should at least be serviceable.

Notes:

This is set in 2018. Even though she looks the same as she did back in 0, Miss Tatsu will be in her 50-60′s here.

This is also a slightly alternate continuity where Ichiban is fighting the Omi Alliance in Kamurocho instead of getting hustled over to Yokohama. This is relevant because of the specific point that the police are in bed with the Omi, which is touched upon in the Epilogue.

Yamada makes reference to knowing Noa Amon, of the Amon clan. This is referring to one of the Daily Life substories where the two worked together to beat up some goons. You can read it here if you’d like, it’s the one at the very bottom.

------------------ PROLOGUE ------------------

Scene #1: Kamurocho · Nakamichi Street

Narration: One holiday...

Yamada: [smile] Thanks for coming along to my special training, Kasuga!

Ichiban: No problem. Just, you know, maybe tone it down a little- Ugh! [pained] My ass still hurts from how hard you kicked it...

Yamada: [frown] Oh, uh, I’m sorry?

Ichiban: Noa still won’t train with you?

Yamada: Yeah... “There’s no point in getting into the practical when you still haven’t mastered the basics.”

Ichiban: [smile] Ehh, that’s pretty cool. I should remember that. If that’s the case, why don’t you focus on laying down a foundation? I’m always happy to help you train, so you don’t need to rush.

Yamada: [smile] ...You’re right. Thanks, Kasuga!

?: Kasuga!

Ichiban: Oh, Miss Tatsu. What’s up? If you haven’t eaten yet, wanna join us?

Miss Tatsu: ...That works. I just wanted to ask you something, not stand around and chat.

Ichiban: Hm?

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

Scene #2: Kamurocho · Restaurant

Ichiban: [confused] A troublesome collection?

Miss Tatsu: Yeah. My colleagues are getting pummeled by them, one after the other.

Ichiban: Hmm... So now it’ll be your turn?

Miss Tatsu: That’s right. Actually, the request just came in.

Ichiban: You took it, yeah?

Miss Tatsu: [frown] Well... I’m not sure.

Ichiban: [confused] You’re unsure? Is he really that dangerous?

Miss Tatsu: That’s just it, the debtor is a completely average old man. At least, from what I’ve gathered.

Ichiban: Then why...

Miss Tatsu: The people who went to collect his debt came back mauled, as if they’d been attacked by a wild beast...

Ichiban: [confused] Beast...? What, does he have a Doberman?

Miss Tatsu: I’ve seen their injuries. No Doberman could do that.

Ichiban: ...What then?

Miss Tatsu: [frown] I don’t know. That’s why I’m indecisive. Even when I tried to talk to the victims, they all clammed up like they were afraid of something. So I wanted to see if you’d know anything... but it seems like you don’t.

Ichiban: Sorry, I’ve got no clue. But hey, if you’re gonna fight the guy, I can lend a hand. [smile] Maybe the old guy’s a werewolf. I’m curious to find out, hehe.

Miss Tatsu: ...It would be nice to have your help, but...

Ichiban: Then it’s settled. I’ll be fine - if things get bad, I’ll run away as fast as I can.

Miss Tatsu: [smile] ...Heh, I got it. Looking forward to working with you. We’ll split the fee fifty-fifty, alright?

Yamada: U-Um!

Ichiban: [confused] Huh?

Miss Tatsu: Ah, sorry miss. Talking about something this gory over a meal.

Yamada: No, it’s not that, you’re fine... Anyway, can I come with?

Miss Tatsu: [surprised] You?

Ichiban: No, it’ll be dangerous... Leave this to us.

Yamada: Please, I won’t do anything risky! [frown] I know I’m still a novice, but that’s why I want to become strong as soon as possible, for everyone’s sake. So-

Miss Tatsu: [smile] Hehe, you’re a proper youngster. Almost hurts my old eyes to see... Teru, you said?

Yamada: Yes ma’am.

Miss Tatsu: Will you keep your promise to not do anything risky?

Yamada: Yes ma’am!

Miss Tatsu: [smile] Okay then, let’s go. I know where he’s hiding. I can count on you when the time comes, right Kasuga?

Ichiban: [smile] Heh. I gotcha.

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

Scene #3: Kamurocho · Docks

Miss Tatsu: ...Here it is.

Ichiban: This is where we’ll find the truth of the old man werewolf.

Miss Tatsu: His name is Hirata. He’s the president of a credit company called Peace Finance.

Ichiban: [confused] Huh? Feel like I’ve heard that name before.

Miss Tatsu: You’ve got a good memory. Yes, he ran the same company about 30 years ago. He was a bastard with a bad reputation, and one day he up and disappeared. And then, recently, he reappeared out of nowhere.

Ichiban: And he’s right back to his bad behaviour. Guess a tiger never changes its stripes. You alright, Teru?

Yamada: [frown] Y-Yeah...!

Ichiban: You can head back home if you want.

Yamada: It’s fine, I’m fine...!

Miss Tatsu: [angry] Okay then, let’s go...!

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

Scene #4: Kamurocho · Warehouse

Miss Tatsu: [angry] Hirata! Come out! I’m taking back the money you owe!!

Ichiban: [confused] Hm? What’s that smell...?

?: Hi, hihihi...

Ichiban: !

Hirata: You collectors never learn. No matter how many of you come, it’s always the same...!

Ichiban: You’re Hirata, yeah? ...I see, you really are just an old man.

Miss Tatsu: [angry] An old man with the cash to rent a warehouse like this. Let’s get you to pay back one month’s interest first.

Hirata: You all say the same thing... so your fate will also be the same.

Miss Tatsu: ...?

Yamada: [surprised] ...! Watch out!!

[something growls]

Ichiban: [confused] Wha?!

Miss Tatsu: [surprised] What is it now...?!

[the tiger growls again]

Miss Tatsu: [angry] ...Teru. We’re running.

Ichiban: [angry] Tsk...! We’re not letting him get away, are we? He’s a fucking lunatic. [raises fists] We have to fight it, Miss Tatsu. Teru, you stay behind me, alright?

Yamada: [frown] O-Okay...!

Miss Tatsu: ...Hirata. I’ll ask just in case. You aren’t gonna give the money back?

Hirata: No way that’s happening...!

Miss Tatsu: Fuh, then it can’t be helped. [angry] Sorry to that big guard dog over there, but I’m about to give his master a hell of a beating! Let’s go, Kasuga!! 

Ichiban: Oouh!

Hirata: Aren’t you scared of my pet at all? ...Fine, if you think you can get past him, then just try it!

------------------ 

[And so, Ichiban and Miss Tatsu beat up Hirata and his pet kitty about a hundred million times. I can’t place the battle music off the top of my head, but I do know the main menu for the event played Debt Cleanup, which is still a certified :catjam:]

------------------ EPILOGUE ------------------

Scene #5: Kamurocho · Docks

Ichiban: I wasn’t sure when I reported it, but it seems like the police have a handle on things.

Miss Tatsu: He didn’t have anything to do with the Omi, after all. Besides, it’s not like they could leave a tiger alone.

Ichiban: That’s for sure. I can’t believe he got a freakin’ tiger to fight off debt collectors instead of a guard dog. How did he even tame it?

Miss Tatsu: [frown] I’m sorry, Teru. You must have been scared.

Yamada: [frown] It’s fine...

Ichiban: [raised eyebrow] Hey, you don’t look fine. What’s wrong?

Yamada: ...I was thinking about what I could do while the two of you were fighting so hard. But in the end, I couldn’t do anything...

Miss Tatsu: Teru...

Ichiban: [smile] ...Heh, your heart’s in the right place, Teru. But you don’t have to rush yourself. Noa said it too, right? The basics are important. If you weren’t up to it today, you can try again tomorrow. And one day, you’ll be the one to help us out when we’re in a pinch. I’ll be looking forward to it.

Miss Tatsu: [smile] Feh, that’s right. We’re not getting any younger, after all. I’m counting on you, Teru.

Yamada: ...Yeah! I’ll try harder! [yell] Alright, I’ll get right back to my training! Starting with a run back home! Farewell!

[she runs off]

Ichiban: [confused] Hey! How many kilometres does she think that is...?

Miss Tatsu: [smile] Heh. She’s a good girl. I’m looking forward to her future.

Ichiban: [smile] ...Well, us old-timers are exhausted. What say we enjoy an after-work drink together?

Miss Tatsu: Sounds good. At least that’s one advantage to being an adult!

------END------ ------------------

Ichiban: And he’s right back to his bad behaviour. A tiger never changes its stripes. 

The original saying here is “三つ子の魂百まで”, which translates literally to “the soul of a child of three (is the same) at 100″. In other words, someone’s nature as a child never truly changes even when they get older. The tiger saying seemed to be a decent equivalent, and also added a delightful bit of dramatic irony, hehe.

Anyway, let’s talk a little more about Hirata. He actually showed up one more time in the main series, in a Yakuza 3 substory. After Kiryu kicked his teeth in, Hirata ran off and became homeless while his family suffered under his debt. Circa 2009, his son tried to kill him in revenge, but Kiryu stopped him and father and son reconciled after Hirata apologised for what he put his family through.

So then, why did he return to his old scam another ten or so years later? One could just say he relapsed, going along with Ichiban’s point that a person’s true nature never changes. However, I think it honestly might be because RGGO did its Yakuza 1 retelling just two months before this event. Why stoop to some generic mook when they have a fully animated model for an actual Yakuza baddie, you know? Really sucks to be that family of his, though.

[kitashousewife]

gimme more!

an: been thinking about this all day. i hope you guys enjoy this as much as i did!!

pairing: timeskip!sakusa x fem!reader

warnings: alcohol consumption, reader is wearing a dress and lipstick, sakusa is a little mean in the beginning, suggestive, slight atsumu x reader (for purposes ;))

hinata was a great friend. he always has been, even in high school. since he was such a great friend, hinata invited you to japan to spend a week with him on his week off. he even introduced you to his teammates!

this week was packed, hinata pulling out all of the stops to make you feel special. he took you to his favorite restaurants, paying for you of course. after a couple days together, he decided to introduce you to his friends and teammates.

well, you knew bokuto from a few tournaments in high school that you attended to support your friends. you knew atsumu as well, from similar events. and you knew who sakusa was as well, but only from hinata's stories. he wasn't as...friendly.

at the beginning of the week, you decided to watch the last part of MSBY's training they held, even though they had a week off. it was light, everyone was having fun. you watched from the sidelines, watching the boys joke around while going through their drills. you cheered them on as they went, earning you a few waves and cheers back. sakusa, though, was not as excited.

"are you trying to be distracting?" a raspy voice over your left shoulder fills your ears. sakusa stands behind you, grabbing a stray ball that rolled over to you.

"e-excuse me?" voice meek, you avoid eye contact. even from a distance, sakusa was quite tall.

he sighs. shaking his head as he walks away, you see the confused looks on his teammates faces. you copied their looks.

what a dick.

the next few days were similar. great interactions at lunches, sightseeing, and hanging out at hinata's house with his friends. everyone was wonderful, except for sakusa. what was his problem? anytime you started to have a good time, sakusa just had to make a comment. are you always this loud? shoyo-kun didn't mention you were this annoying.

you hated him, you were pretty sure.

but it was so tough to do so.

even though he was an asshole, sakusa was extremely attractive. he was so tall, he had the most gorgeous hair, a great smile when he decided to show it.

everyone noticed you stealing glances, including sakusa. he noticed only because he was doing the same.

he wishes hinata didn't bring you out here, because you were so distracting. your cute laugh, pretty hair, and sweet smile were always in his head, and he was sick of it. what made him even more sick was the fact that hinata decided to reserve a club for the five of you, on a friday night in the middle of the city.

"could you have picked a busier night? jesus," sakusa spits as he fixes his hair in the mirror.

"loosen up omi," atsumu joins him in the mirror, slinging an arm over his shoulder. "it will be fun! plus, y/n will be there!" atsumu looks over at sakusa in the reflection. sakusa’s cheeks heat up.

"oh my god, i knew it!" atsumu runs out of the bathroom. sakusa lets out a loud groan. "omi likes her! his cheeks got all pink, and-"

"omi-kun, why didn't you say anything! i could've set up a date for you guys or something!" hinata peaks his head in. sakusa feels like he is going to explode. thankfully, a knock at the door grabs everyone's attention.

"y/n! right on time, you look great!" hinata's voice fills the room.

"thanks shoyo! are we ready to go? i'm sorry if i was late, i had a tough time getting here," your soft voice is much more calming than hinata's, sakusa thinks. sighing, he decides to come out of the bathroom.

he wishes he didn't.

there you are, adorned in a black slip dress and the prettiest heels. following the thin straps of your dress, sakusa's eyes drag up from your shoulder, to your neck, and stop at the pretty red tint of your lips.

jesus christ.

"something wrong, sakusa?" your hand waves in his vision, pulling him back into focus. the guys all laugh behind him.

"yeah, omi omi, you feeling okay?" bokuto nudges him with his shoulder, leaving him behind as the rest of you walk towards the door.

"shut the fuck up, bokuto," sakusa sighs, voice unamused. underneath the facade, sakusa knows he us absolutely fucked.

-

the volume inside the club is shocking. squinting at the many strobes in the building, you flinch at the feeling of the bass thumping through your body.

"this way!" hinata shouts, unbothered, and bokuto grabs your hand to lead you towards their table. you gladly accept and follow them through the crowds, around some tables, until you end up a booth right next to the floor.

yelling over the music, atsumu saunters over to the table. "bottles are on their way, so we're all good to go!” you slide into the booth, your seat directly across from sakusa’s.

"atsumu, relax. you haven’t even had anything to drink yet,” sakusa stretches his arms up and around the edge of the booth, looking out to the floor.

“c’mon, at least pretend to enjoy this,” atsumu smirks back, just as the bottle service arrives. bokuto hands you a glass, which you quickly accept. with sakusa’s attitude, and the crowd you’re with, you’re gonna need it.

throwing it back, you shut your eyes and shudder at the taste. the liquid drips down your throat, each drop burning a little more than the last. already feeling a little more at ease, you open your eyes and are met with sakusa’s staring right back. you squirm.

“let’s get out there,” atsumu stands up and offers to the table, which nobody accepts.

“sure, why not?” you smile at atsumu and take his hand, heading out to the floor.

the music is almost electric. the bass thumps through your body, heart beating along with the brittany spears song that plays. laughing, atsumu spins you around and dips you. you giggle, the liquor you had making you feel a little more at ease. pulling you up, he pulls you back against his front and begins to sway with you, hands holding your hips against his own. moving your hips with the song that plays, you begin to let go and fall into the rhythm.

sakusa slams his drink on the table and rolls his eyes. give me a fucking break. whatever game you're playing is working.

"everything okay, omi?" hinata smirks at him from across the table, sliding into the seat next to him. sakusa scoffs.

"yeah, just lovely," sakusa puts his phone in his pocket and starts to get up. hinata laughs in response. sakusa looks towards the floor and is greeted with the sight of atsumu's hands all over you, swaying together to the music.

sakusa isn't an angry guy by any means.

but that? his blood boils.

"aw, it looks like we made someone a little mad," atsumu says in your ear. you throw your head back on his shoulder and laugh, which is quickly interrupted by rough fingertips grabbing you by the wrist.

"hey omi, where have you be-"

"get out of here miya, you've done enough for one night."

atsumu's laugh fades away as sakusa pulls you into his chest. your heart skips a beat as you realize who’s hands have replaced atsumu’s.

sakusa leans down, smoothing his hands up and down your hips, feeling every curve and dip in your sides.

“why do you always have to be so aggravating,” he breaths into your ear. even though you’re flush against his warm body, a chill shoots up your spine.

“what do you mean, omi?” you push yourself back a little, to which he pushes his hips up into you. you gasp.

chuckling, sakusa moves your hips side to side, and slides one hand up your body, smoothing over the thin material of your dress. fingertips snaking their way up your side, across your collarbone, lightly feeling the sides of your throat, and stopping to tilt your chin up. you whimper at the feeling of his rough fingers on your skin.

“i’ll look past your…display with atsumu this time,” he mutters into your neck, lips barely brushing across your skin, sending goosebumps throughout your body. his thumb moves from the side of your cheek to wipe across your bottom lip, smearing the red lipstick slightly.

“but i think it’s my turn to have some fun with you, yeah?”

VS Thieves Gang / 3

Thief: … Somehow I managed to give them the slip. 

Chikage: Hey, I’ve been waiting for you.

Misumi: Give Chikage’s handbag back!

Thief: W-Who the hell are you!?

Even the police! Damn it, I’ll definitely run away…!

*Short  timeskip*

Thief: I’ve come this far, they’ll no doubt…

Chikage: I was allowed to go ahead of you.

Thief: What…!?

Misumi: Ahaha, somehow this feels like that time right! Chikage is really cool~! (*)

Chikage: Yeah. That was when we were chasing a thief in front of the dorm right. 

Thief: Why do you always go ahead of me wherever I go no matter what…!

Chikage: I’m good at chasing after people.

Chikage: …Well then, may I have my deposited things back.

Thief: Deposited things… So that’s you, the four-eye the other day! This machine, no way, a GPS!?

Misumi: I told you–, just give up~!

Thief: There’s no way I’d let you catch me! If this is a GPS, I’ll win if I throw it and run away!

Omi: …That’s enough.

Thief: I got caught!? If that’s the case I’ll break through––.

Omi: I told you this is enough!!

Thief: Eek!?

Misumi: Ah– You’ve been knocked down!

Chikage: Haha, Omi’s strength is amazing.

Policeman: Secure, secure! We have arrested the remaining member of the thieves gang…

*Shifts to ceremony*

Kai: Omi-nii, is it really fine for us to receive a letter of appreciation?

Gaku: That’s right–. Chikage-san and Misumi-san deserve this more than us, don’t they?

Omi: That’s not it, thanks to you guys, we were able to arrest the thieves gang. Not only the police, but Chikage-san and Misumi were also grateful.

Kai: Y-Yeah, that’s great but…

Announcer: Well then, Fushimi Omi-san, Kai-san, Gaku-san, please come to the podium.

*Short timeskip*

Gaku: Fuu~, it ended safely–!

Omi: Haha, somehow I was a little embarrassed.

Police staff: Excuse me, do you have a moment?  There are a few requests I’d like to ask MANKAI Company-san.

Omi: Not to us, but to our theater troupe? What is it?

Police staff: Actually…

*Shifts to Veludo Way* 

Omi: I didn’t expect the three of us would be the chief of police for a day…

Misumi: I think Director-san and Sakyo support us a lot!

Chikage: Well, we were told that we can also advertise our theater troupe.

Omi: This is a theater town, so they told us that a collaboration with a theater troupe would help promote crime prevention…

Chikage: But I think that police staff suggested it simply because he is a fan of MANKAI Company.

Misumi: Anyway, now that it’s decided, let’s do our best~! Salute!

Ahaha, I feel like I’ve become a real policeman!

Omi: Haha, you’re right.

By the way… Both of you, thank you so much for protecting my brothers.

Misumi: That’s natural! I know younger brothers are important to you, since I also have one!

Chikage: That’s right, it’s natural to protect your family.

Omi: …You’re right.

A3! Citron - Translation [SSR] Curtain Among Cherry Blossoms (2/3)

*Please read disclaimer on blog; default name set as Izumi

---

Tangerine: Quickly, sideways…

*hit, hit, hit*

Kumon: Great job, Prince Tangerine!

Tangerine: This is the last one!

*hits*

Taichi: I can’t believe he cleared it perfectly on his first crack at daruma otoshi. That’s amazing!

Tangerine: That was so fun! I’m going to do it one more time.

Kumon: It looks like Prince Tangerine is really into daruma otoshi!

Taichi: Yep. I’m glad he’s having a blast with it~.

Tangerine: Alright, one more time!

*hit, hit, hit*

Tangerine: Wow! How fun~!

Kumon: Woah, woah, woah! Aren’t they flying a bit too much!?

Taichi: I think it’s fine even you don’t hit them that hard!

Tsuzuru: The pieces are shooting really far away!

Citron: Tangerine is talented at daruma otoshi~!

Izumi: Ahaha…

Omi: Sorry for interrupting your fun playtime, but the food is ready.

Tangerine: Thank you!

Tsuzuru: Hm? There are some unusual dishes here.

Omi: The ingredients are Japanese. But with the help of Guy-san and Mika, I tried to make some variations like Zafran cuisine. Thank you, Mika. You too, Guy-san.

Guy: Not at all. It is us who would like to thank you. I will use these as reference for dishes to serve at my shop.

Mika: 《I am glad I was able to watch Fushimi-sama's wonderful cooking up close. When I return to my home country, I would definitely like to put this experience to good use.》

Citron: He said that Omi is skilled at cooking, so he wants to copy you once he returns to Zafra!

Omi: Haha. I appreciate it.

Kumon: Alright, let’s hurry up and dig in! It smells so good, my tummy’s rumbling already!

Taichi: Same here! I can’t wait to try Omi-kun’s Zafran-style meal~!

-pause-

Tangerine: …

*hit, hit*

Citron: 《…Daruma otoshi? Do you like it that much?》

Tangerine: 《Yes! The way the blocks are flicked away quickly feels exhilarating.》 《It wonderful that Japanese culture still retains their traditional games of the past without being lost to time.》

*door opens*

Izumi: Ah. Citron-kun and Tangerine-kun. Perfect timing.

Citron: What is up, Director?

Izumi: I’m about to go out to do some shopping. Is there anything you two want?

Tangerine: Oh, Japanese shopping…! I would like to go with you!

Izumi: Eh? I mean, I don’t mind at all…

Tangerine: Yay!

Citron: I will go with you then! I will worry if Tangerine goes alone.

Izumi: Okay, all three of us will go together. I’ll bring the car around right now.

-pause-

Citron: Director’s driving was wild as always! It was fun and thrilling.

Tangerine: It was the best, just like a rollercoaster!

Izumi: Ahaha. I’m glad if you say so. (They basically had the same impression… they sure are brothers.)

Citron: Director, what are you buying first?

Izumi: Right. First off, I want to stock up on daily necessities…

Store clerk: We are currently holding a special event with a giant daruma otoshi! Please do participate, everybody!

Tangerine: …! A giant daruma otoshi?

Izumi: I wonder if that’s the one… It’s really big, isn’t it!

Citron: Oh! It looks really fun!

Tangerine: Nii-sama! Director! I would like to try that!

Izumi: Sure. We came all the way here. You should participate!

Citron: If you’re going to do it, make sure you succeed! I will be cheering for you!

Tangerine: Leave it to me~!

Event | 5th Anniversary: The Way Back Home | Chapter 3 - Autumn Planet Story

*Contains spoilers for Act 12 - eternal moment*

Banri: …Aight, looks like everyone’s here.

Banri: So let’s get this training camp location decided on.

Omi: I wonder what kind of place we should go with.

Juza: It’s gotta be somewhere where we can think of ideas for the spin-off performance.

Azami: Then it’s probably better to go with a place that’s different from the usual one. That way it’s somethin’ new to help us come up with more ideas.

Omi: I bet we could get some great ideas from seeing some beautiful scenery and experiencing things in person.

Taichi: If it’s possible, I wanna go somewhere with good food! And somewhere where we can all have fun too~.

Sakyo: I already have a place in mind.

*Papers being passed out*

Juza: A pamphlet…?

Omi: Oh, this place is close. It’s only about an hour or two away by car.

Azami: What the hell is it?

Sakyo: Although we have a budget in place, we don’t want to put ourselves in debt. So I’m making cuts where I can. That’s why I looked for somewhere as close as possible.

Taichi: Eh! This is where we’re going for the Autumn Troupe training camp…!?

Banri: Already figured that with Sakyo-san around, there was no hope of having a luxury plan.

Sakyo: It ain’t the place that matters, it's what we get done there.

Banri: And what we get done is mostly just rehearsals and meetings.

Omi: I hope we can still get the training camp experience, even on a budget…

Taichi: Ah! Then how about wint-camping!?

Sakyo: Hah? The hell is wint-camping?

Taichi: Winter camping! I’ve seen a lot about it on social media lately and it seems to be pretty popular.

Taichi: They say the prices are cheaper than in the summer and the air is cleaner too, so the scenery is even prettier!

Taichi: Umm… Here! What about this place!?

Juza: There’s a special feature on winter camping in the pamphlet, huh.

Sakyo: I see. If the prices are cheap and the budget can afford it, let’s go with that.

Banri: Won’t campin’ in the middle of winter be cold as hell.

Omi: Well, there’s lots of physical activity in camping, so it’s something that’s perfect for Autumn Troupe.

Juza: And it’s gotta be better than campin’ on that deserted island.

Taichi: I’m sure it’ll be great! Let’s all go wint-camping!

Azami: Guess it’s a better change of pace than just rehearsing and discussing things than our usual training camps.

Banri: Guess you’re right. We can def probably get some good inspiration from there.

Banri: Aight, then Autumn Troupe’s training camp will be wint-camping.

Taichi: Woo! Now that that’s decided, we’ve gotta get ready! We’ve def gotta have curry when we’re camping.

Azami: We eat that all the time and you still want to have it while we’re camping.

Sakyo: The only thing that we “def” need to do is discuss the content of our spin-off performance.

Sakyo: We also need to express our gratitude to those who have supported us up until this point. And we need to make it clear that we’re going to continue to protect MANKAI Company.

Sakyo: Not to mention that this special performance is also to reaffirm our commitment to winning the Fleur Award.

Omi: Of course.

Juza: Yeah.

Banri: With the new theater, it might be a good idea to keep in mind our origins.

Banri: Sakuya said that his solo-trip was a good experience…

Banri: And it was a good experience for me to think about why it had to be our theater during the MANKAI performance.

Sakyo: Not bad. If it’s coming from our leader, guess we need to keep it in mind.

Omi: I agree.

Azami: No objections here.

Juza: Sure.

Taichi: Our origins… Well then we can’t forgot about our naked socializing!

Banri: No, that wasn’t what I was talkin’ about.

Azami: This pamphlet says there’s a lot of places to go sightseeing around there.

Taichi: Look, look! There’s a pirate ship there!

Juza: Pirate ship?

Omi: The photos of the ship’s interior are beautiful.

Taichi: ANIMS are space pirates, so it’s perfect for us. Since we’re gonna be around there, we gotta head onboard!

Sakyo: True, we might be able to get some good inspiration for the spin-off’s content there.

Sakyo: We’ll try to go there.

Taichi: Yaaay! It’s settled then!

Sakyo: Tch… We’re not going to have fun.

Omi: I’ve got all the cooking stuff packed.

Juza: Got all the tent stuff packed too.

Izumi: There sure is a lotta stuff needed for camping, huh. Is every okay? Do you need any help?

Omi: Thanks. But we can handle this.

Izumi: By the way, where did all this authentic camping gear come from?

Juza: Borrowed it from Yosei’s camping club.

Taichi: It’s the perfect way to cut down on costs!

Izumi: I see.

Taichi: When I realized how fun camping is, I was invited to join the club.

Sakyo: All the luggage is packed. Time to head out.

Omi: Got it.

Banri: No one forgettin’ anything? Then let’s head out…

Banri: Wait, oi! Why’s the driver’s seat empty? The hell, when did everyone get in?

Azami: Didn’t you hear when we said that you’re the one driving today, Banri-san?

Banri: Who the hell decided on that!?

Taichi: Don’t worry about it. C’mon, we’re all counting on you, Ban-chan!

Banri: Tch, whatever…

Banri: Aight, let’s go.

Azami: We’re off. Don’t stay up too late, Director.

Omi: There’s leftovers in the fridge for you to eat.

Sakyo: Make sure to call if you need anything. We’ll be keeping in touch too.

Taichi: We’ll get you lotsa souvenirs!

Juza: See ya.

Izumi: Bye! Stay safe.

Azami: We’re finally here…

Taichi: S-So cold…!

Sakyo: You’re the one who said winter camping was a good idea.

Banri: Yeah, it was your idea, don’t act so surprised.

Taichi: But~…

Omi: Well, the air really is clear and the scenery is beautiful.

Azami: True. The wind is pretty cold, though.

Juza: So, what should we do first?

Banri: Can’t get anything else done until we get the tent set up.

Omi: Right. Alright, let’s get to work.

· • —– ٠ ✤ ٠ —– • ·

Omi: Put this here and… There.

Azami: Nice that we got a high-tech tent that stays warm in the winter, it’s a pain in the ass to set up though.

Banri: Oi, I told you that goes there!

Juza: Haah? Don’t tell me what to do.

Banri: The hell!? You’re the one fuckin’ things up in the first place--!

Taichi: Aah, they’ve started already.

Azami: So this is them camping, huh.

Banri: Wanna try me? I’ll drop you in that lake in a heartbeat.

Juza: I’d like to see ya try.

Banri: Bastard…!

Taichi: Oh, no, no, no, they’ve grabbed onto each other! They haven’t been this bad in a while…!

Omi: This might not end well.

Azami: Chill out!

Sakyo: Tch, didn’t think I’d have to use this again, but…

Omi: Hm? Sakyo-san, what are you…?

Taichi: Aah! Those handcuffs look familiar!

Banri: !?

Juza: --.

Sakyo: You’re the one who said we should keep our origins in mind… Right? I’d be happy to bring you closer like I did back then.

Banri: That ain’t what I meant!

Juza: …Sorry.
