Backstage Stories| Taichi | Omi-kun, good luck! |
| Azami | My score's still stuck behind those two... |
| Omi | Haha, it's always those two, isn't it. |
| Azami | True. |
| Taichi | Ehe, I'm not as good as Omi-kun! |
| Banri | I’m way better than you,dumbass. You’re out way too much. |
| Juza | Shut it. That doesn’t matter. |
| Banri | Hah? What’s that supposed to mean. |
| Juza | Bullseye. |
| Banri | You know what that is?! |
| Izumi | Hey, you two... |
| Sakyo | Quit being a pain!! |
| Taichi | WAAAAH!! Sakyo-nii with a gun is scary! |
| Izumi | Ahaha... |
| Izumi | Well, that's all for practice tonight. |
| Juza | Good work. |
| Banri | Poggers~ |
| Azami | Good job. |
| Izumi | Oh right. I have something to tell you all about before we go back to the hotel. |
| Omi | Hm? What is it? |
| Izumi | I talked to the staff and they said there’s a place nearby where you can do some shooting! |
| I thought it’d be interesting, since we’re doing Picaresque and all. | |
| Taichi | That means I can actually shoot a gun?! |
| Azami | Ha, that’d look funny. |
| Sakyo | Hold on. Don’t you need a license to shoot a gun? |
| Juza | You do? |
| Banri | As expected, it’s the yakuza asking shit like that, |
| Izumi | No, no. There’s a shooting gallery with rifles you can shoot. |
| And they use lasers instead of real bullets, so you don’t need a license. | |
| Sakyo | Got it. |
| Izumi | It seems like the laser will tell you where the bullet hits. I just thought it’d be good experience since a lot of you handle guns in Picaresque. |
| Taichi | Benjamin doesn’t use a gun, but I still want to try it! |
| Azami | I'm down too. |
| Omi | I think it’ll be fun. |
| Sakyo | Ah, it’ll be good practice for sure. |
| Izumi | (Sakyo-san won’t be drunk for this.. Good..) |
| Banri | I bet Hyodo won’t hit anything. |
| Juza | Shut up, fucker. |
| Izumi | Great, let's do it! |
| Izumi | (...I came with just to make sure everyone’s doing alright, but I’m having a pretty good time too.) |
| Banri | Director, you wanna try it? |
| Izumi | I’m thinking of doing it later. What happened to you game with Juza-kun? Weren’t you two working together? |
| Banri | Nope, turns out I’m alone now. |
| Izumi | (No matter what it is, those two are always fighting or fighting…) |
| Banri | What is it. |
| Izumi | Umm, nothing. Oh, it looks like one of the stalls is open! Guess it’s my turn now. |
| Banri | You want me to teach you how? |
| Izumi | Fufufu.. I’m really good at this kind of thing. |
| *Bang* | |
| Izumi | Aw, shoot! I thought it would hit a little closer to the center… |
| Banri | Nah, it looks fine to me. You’re pretty good at this, haven’t you done this before? |
| Izumi | Mhm. I’m good at shooting so I thought this would be easy too. |
| Banri | You’re like a pro, but it’s unexpected since you’re the director and all… |
| Izumi | Isn’t it good to hit it? |
| Banri | Yep. |
| *Bang* | |
| Taichi | Ah! Juza-san hit it! |
| Juza | ….No, not really. |
| Banri | That guy… I’m gonna go beat him. As he said, it’s still pretty far off. |
| Izumi | Fufu… Banri-kun, Juza-kun are opponents yet again. He really hates losing... |
| Banri | What? |
| Izumi | Because on the train coming here- |
| Taichi | Ban-chan, Ban-chan, let’s play cards! |
| Banri | Aight, but don’t cry if you lose. |
| Taichi | I won’t!! Alright, let’s play one on one!! |
| Banri | Wait a sec, wouldn’t it get boring if it’s just two people? |
| Taichi | Nope! One on one makes it more interesting! Psychological warfare!! |
| Banri | Psychological warfare...? |
| Taichi | Ban-chan, this is definitely it for you! |
| Banri | Here~ |
| Taichi | …!!!! |
| Banri | ..Yep. |
| Taichi | WAHHH!!! I LOST AGAIN!!!! |
| Ban-chan, why are you so good at this? Are you even real??? | |
| Banri | I ain't that good, it's actually pretty self explanatory. |
| Banri | Aaand, that’s the last one. |
| Taichi | EH? I haven’t even won one match! |
| Banri | Do your best to win then. Look, deal the cards like this. |
| Taichi | Alright!! I’ll definitely win this match!!!! |
| Taichi | I did it!! I won against Ban-chan!!! |
| Banri | Sure did, great job. Proud of you. |
| Taichi | Ah~ That was fun! Thanks, Ban-chan! |
| Banri | So you saw it. |
| Izumi | Ahaha, it’s hard not to notice. |
| Banri | Well, I was sure Taichi got tired of losing, so I let him win that last match… |
| Izumi | If that happened with Juza, would you do the same? |
| Banri | ... |
| Izumi | So you’re still rivals that never want to lose, that’s good. |
| Banri | True, it’s boring not having anyone to compete with. |
| It’s a pain that he’s the one… | |
| Izumi | (A while back, I wouldn’t have admitted it… But having a rival really is good for him) |
| Banri | Well, that bastard’s been doin’ pretty well. Don’t you wanna crush him as well? |
| Izumi | Ah… You’re so much. |
| Izumi | It’s finally the first day! |
| Banri | ‘S a good thing we practiced shooting, we’re really gonna get em now! |
| Juza | You’re not getting me. |
| Banri | Yeah, yeah ok. |
| Taichi | Eh?! Aren’t you two a team? |
| Omi | Haha, yeah, but that’s how they get fired up. |
| Azami | I don’t really like being shitty Sakyo’s subordinate… |
| Sakyo | You better not break character out there. |
| Azami | Seriously. |
| Izumi | (They’re bickering as always… But you can feel how excited they are.) |
| Let’s go!! | |
| Izumi | (Luciano and Lansky, two gangsters under Capone, are forced to work as a team) |
| Luciano | “What is it, boss?” |
| Capone | “Luciano, Lansky, you two are gonna be working as a team from now on.” |
| Luciano | “WHAT?!” |
| Lansky | “Absolutely not.” |
| Luciano | “That’s my line! Why the hell do I have to work with cheapskate Lansky?! I don’t wanna catch his poor germs!!” |
| Lansky | “And I don’t wanna catch your asshole germs.” |
| Luciano | “I hate you!!” |
| Capone | “Shut your traps! This ain’t a playground, so get over it and get to work!” |
| Izumi | (Their tempo is good… It’s going really well.) |
| (And Sakyo-san’s stage presence is amazing as well… He’s really improved since the first run) | |
| Luciano | “Yeah, found a good escape route-” |
| Lansky | “Did you secure it right-” |
| Luciano | “Don’t you worry, Lansky! Leave it to me, your ass is in good hands with me!” |
| Lansky | “‘Sure, but did you really have to say it like that.” |
| Luciano | “‘Course I did, we’re in the mafia, dumbass!” |
| Lansky | “Guess you’re right.” |
| Izumi | (After that, Luciano goes with Lansky to visit his younger brother, Benjamin, who is sick in the hospital) |
| Benjamin | "You’re my brother’s friend? I’m Benjamin, it’s nice to meet you!" |
| Luciano | "You're Lansky's little brother?" |
| Lansky | "Our mother and father are 100% the same, shut it." |
| Luciano | "So he shares the same mischief genes as you?" |
| Lansky | "You're so rude..." |
| Luciano | "Benjamin, you want anything? Your brother’s real nice, so I bet he’ll get you anything." |
| Taichi | "No thank you, I’m fine. I know he’s working hard for me already!" |
| Izumi | (Taichi-kun’s performance has also vastly improved since when he started) |
| Izumi | (Luciano gets called in by the boss for something) |
| Capone | "Things seem to be going well with Lansky." |
| Luciano | "Sure are, seems like we ain’t a half bad team after all." |
| Capone | "... There’s a saying for that." |
| Luciano | "Don't say it." |
| Capone | "Well… I’m glad you two are getting along, but don’t trust him too much." |
| Luciano | "What the hell does that mean?" |
| Capone | "It means exactly what you think it does." |
| Izumi | (As Capone said, Lansky is a traitor, sending information to Officer Dewey) |
| Dewey | "Thanks for cooperating, Lansky." |
| "But you know.. You can’t lead both the mafia and the police around by the nose." | |
| Lansky | "I know. I’m just an informant." |
| Dewey | "Good." |
| Izumi | (When Omi-kun and Juza-kun interact, you can really feel the air get tight…) |
| Izumi | (Luciano gets caught up with a group for being suspected of being a traitor. Lansky rescues the hostage Luciano.) |
| Capone's Assistant | "Boss!! Luciano’s gone!" |
| Capone | "Where’s Lansky?" |
| Capone's Assistant | "Huh? Come to think of it, I haven’t seen him either-" |
| "Sorry… I think they’re both gone." | |
| Capone | "Well… That’s my fault for putting those two together. |
| Capone's Assistant | "Boss..." |
| Izumi | (Azami-kun’s really getting the hang of this role too even though he hasn’t rehearsed it for long..) |
| Izumi | (Those two are now on the run from both the mafia and the police….) |
| Luciano | "So, what now?" |
| Lansky | "I still have to feed my brother and get clothes on his back." |
| Luciano | "Yeah, we’re both jobless now. What if we go into business together? Like as bodyguards?" |
| Lansky | "That sounds good, like spies or somethin’." |
| Luciano | "Service workers..." |
| Lansky | "I bet we can do whatever well. Hah, what if we were babysitters." |
| Luciano | "That doesn’t suit us at all!" |
| Lansky | "Then what do you want?" |
| Luciano | "Why am I the one who has to make all the decisions? Well, anything’s fine with me as long as it’s with you." |
| Lansky | "Sounds good." |
| Izumi | (And so the drive off, bickering and chatting like they always do. These kind of roles can only be done by Banri-kun and Juza-kun.) |
| (Those two… They’ve really grown on each other.) | |
| *Applause* | |
| Audience Member A | That was so fun~! |
| Audience Member B | Lansky and Luciano’s relationship was really good! |
| Audience Member C | Yeah!! I wonder if their actors get along too. |
| Izumi | (Looks like the audience is just as excited!!) |
| Izumi | Thanks for your hard work everyone! |
| Taichi | It was like they were really shooting! |
| Omi | That practice was worth it. |
| Banri | Yeah, that was pretty good. |
| Juza | Oi, I still ain’t satisfied. |
| Banri | It’s ‘cause you’re not doing it right. |
| Sakyo | It’s still the first day, there’s room to improve. |
| Banri | We’re gonna go even harder tomorrow! |
| Autumn Troupe | Yeah!! |
