| Muku | We’re headed out! |
| Yuki | We’re headed out. |
| Izumi | See you later! |
| Sakuya | Masumi-kun, you’re going to be late. Come on, hurry, hurry! |
| Masumi | Shut up…. |
| Izumi | (Sakuya-kun graduated, but he’s still waking Masumi-kun up in the morning anyway.) |
| Sakuya-kun, are you headed to your part-time job? |
| Sakuya | No, this morning I’m going to practice with the troupe where I’m guest-acting! |
| Izumi | I see, good luck. See you later! |
| Sakuya | See you later! Come on, Masumi-kun! |
| Masumi | …Zz. |
| Izumi | (I wonder if Masumi-kun is going to have Sakuya-kun wake him up every morning until he graduates…) |
| Omi | I’m headed out. |
| Juza | Yeah. |
| Izumi | Ah, see you later, both of you! |
| Tsuzuru | Oi, Juza—. |
| Juza | ? |
| Tsuzuru | You’re taking theater studies, right? This is my old textbook. It’s taught by the same professor, so I think you can use it. |
| Juza | Thank you. |
| Izumi | (I didn’t think Juza-kun would end up at Yousei University with Omi-kun and Tsuzuru-kun.) |
| (He spent a long time thinking about it, so he decided last-minute and had a lot of trouble studying for entrance exams, but I’m really glad he was accepted.) |
| Banri | Yaaaawn… Class first period, what a pain. |
| Kazunari | Settsuar, wait, wait! Let’s go together! |
| Banri | ‘Kay. |
| Izumi | (Speaking of surprising, I didn’t expect Banri-kun to attend Veludo Arts University, either but….) |
| (I was really happy when he said he wanted to study theater seriously in the Theater and Dance Studies Department.) |
| Kazunari | Director-chan, we’re off~! |
| Banri | See ya later. |
| Izumi | See you later! |
| Itaru | Director-san, have we opened up applications for new troupe members yet? |
| Izumi | I’m thinking of asking some people I had in mind. |
| Itaru | Make sure you include “lives alone (homeowner)” as part of the requirements. |
| Izumi | That’s too strict! Please get along with your new roommate, whoever it turns out to be. |
| Itaru | Eh~. |
| Izumi | Don’t “eh~” me! |
| Itaru | Sighs… I’m headed out. |
| Izumi | See you later! Good luck with work! |
| |
| Izumi | I guess I’ll update our official troupe blog for the first time in a while. |
| (Has it been a while since our last update?) |
| (It seems like whoever wants to write makes a post whenever they feel like it, but Sakyo-san is keeping tabs on it, so it should be fine, right…) |
| Citron | “Today’s dinner was curry .[1] |
| Yesterday’s dinner was curry,” |
| “Tomorrow’s dinner was curry?” |
| Izumi | I’m not too sure what to make of this, but he’s doing better than his first post, which was full of typos…! Plus, our blog ranking is pretty high… |
| Citron | It’s good mo~rning! |
| Izumi | Ah, Citron-kun. Perfect timing—. |
| Citron | What are you doing? |
| Izumi | I was thinking of updating our blog, but you already posted something for us this time, Citron-kun. |
| Citron | That’s right. Sakyo got me to do it; he said it’d be good language practice. |
| Izumi | I see… |
| Citron | Our blog is keeping a high ranking too. But we’re having trouble overtaking “Chikausa’s Curryiously Spicy~[2] Blog.” |
| Izumi | Spicy~ Blog? |
| Citron | It’s a blog that reviews super spicy menus with a focus on curry dishes. |
| The reviewer Chikausa is salty-tongued and has a soft-and-fluffy character. He’s grasping the hearts of men and women of all ages. |
| Izumi | Huh, a curry blog? Let’s see…. |
| Oh, I’ve been to this curry place before! That’s right, it was good~.... |
| This person is really good at taking pictures of curry~. The moment you scoop the curry with your spoon is super important! |
| Citron | You’re setting your eyes on a too-specific detail! |
| Izumi | Right, this curry place has a unique, effective spice, but it’s a bit of a curveball. |
| This Chikausa person gets it! Wow~, I want to be friends with them! I’ll read all their posts later. |
| Citron | Oh no, I created a new Chikausa fan… I’m going to update the blog so we don’t lose! |
| Izumi | Then could you write that we’re looking for new troupe members? Someone might get in touch. |
| Citron | It’s an okay! |
| |
| Itaru | H~m… How can I defend my castle to the death… |
| Chikage | Morning. |
| Itaru | Good morning. |
| Chikage | Hey, Chigasaki, I heard your troupe was looking for new members? |
| Itaru | Eh? How did you know? |
| Chikage | It said so on the blog. |
| Itaru | I see…. |
| Chikage | The troupe blog is weirdly my thing, so I follow every update. |
| Itaru | Is that so…. |
| (He came to watch a couple of our performances, but I didn’t think he was that interested in the troupe….) |
| (Back when he said he wanted a ticket to our performance, it was completely out of nowhere.) |
| (He’s rarely at the company since he’s always abroad on business trips, so I always thought he was strange, but he’s too much of a mystery…) |
| ——. |
| (If he goes on lots of business trips, that might be good…) |
| Chikage-san, you don’t mean to say you want to join the troupe, right? |
| Chikage | What if I say I do? |
| Itaru | Are you serious? |
| Chikage | I’d love to join & dorm. |
| Itaru | (Seriously? Man, I have no idea what he’s thinking…) |
| By the way, if you do dorm, you’d room with me by default. |
| Chikage | Huh. Well, we already know each other, so it all works out. |
| Itaru | Well, that’s true, but… May I propose we make a contract? |
| Chikage | A contract? |
| Itaru | Whisper whisper…. |
| Chikage | Is that a contract with the troupe? |
| Itaru | No, it’s a personal contract with me. |
| Chikage | Hmm… That’s fine with me. |
| Itaru | Terms established. I’m glad you’re a reasonable person. |
