Cross Backstage: Citron x Muku
Citron-sama's Secret

Cinderella	You can’t do this, my prince. When the bell rings at twelve o’clock, I have to go home.
Prince	Hold on, Cinderella!!
Cinderella	Goodbye, Prince Ichi!
Prince	Please don’t go!
Muku	Ahh... I really like princes...
Yuki	You really like these things, don’t you?
Muku	Because I yearn for it.
Yuki	What do you mean? Like being Super-Famous?
Muku	Not that!
	Like the part where he searches for the princess and finds her. It’s cool that you love one person so much.
	He’s sparkly, he’s fresh, he’s the perfect guy!
	I wish I could be like that
Yuki	Well, he’s certainly sparkling.
Muku	Right?!
Yuki	The jewels on his costume look expensive.
Muku	Really? Why do you always focus on that?!
Yuki	When I see a good costume, I tend to calculate the cost.
Muku	Occupational disease?!
Yuki	That’s it.
Citron	What’s that, post-meal sickness?
	I have a symptom that I get sleepy easily.
Yuki	No, it's occupational disease.
Citron	What are you talking about?
Muku	We were talking about how expensive the prince’s costume looked.
Citron	Oh~ that’s definitely a lot of jewels on that thing!
Muku	It’s okay because it suits the prince, and I think he looks great, I think the prince is really nice!
Yuki	Yes, yes, Muku’s usual stuff is in full swing.
Citron	The usual one?
Yuki	Prince worshiping.
Citron	Oh, you like fairy tales, don't you, Muku?
Muku	It’s not the fairy tale, it’s more like the prince in the fairy tale..
Citron	Oh~ Princes...
Yuki	?
Citron	The prince, I’m sure, is more interested in the drama than you think.
Yuki	You mean the mudslinging?
Citron	That’s what I mean. Blood feuds between relatives over the throne.
Yuki	It’s bloody.
Muku	I don’t need that kind of reality!
Citron	Oh, so you’re talking about a bed with a cage, or a Jacuzzi bath in the common room?
Muku	Yes, yes! That kind of thing is great!!
Citron	And riding on a magic carpet.
Muku	Yes!
	Then we would also have a magnificent castle…
Citron	There’s a ball held every night!
	All-you-can-eat fruit platter! There’s even a fruit platter made of jewels!
Muku	Ahh, I adore it!
Citron	The castle is full of flowers, birds, and animals!
Muku	I’d love to ride a white horse just once!
Citron	The prince’s horse is the prettiest and the ripest. And the saddle is sparkly and fluttery.
Muku	That’s right~! My dreams are expanding…!
Yuki	What’s with the prince fantasy…? I’m not following the conversation at all.
Muku	I told you, it’s a dream!
Citron	Oh, yeah! Minced orca meat!
Yuki	Could it be that you’ve been drinking?
	I mean, if that’s what your dream was about.
Muku	Citron, that dream is a bit…!
Citron	Oops, I made a mistake~
Muku	Today’s practice starts at night, so I think I’ll take a detour somewhere…
Citron	…. Muku
Muku	Huh?
Citron	—.
Muku	Citron-San—
Citron	—Hush.
Muku	?
Citron	Muku, over here.
Muku	???
Citron	Run!
Muku	What?? What?
	W-What happened?
Citron	Just hurry up!
Muku	—Ah!
	—.
Citron	Muku, you’re surprisingly fast.
Muku	I used to be on the track team.
	Rather, Citron’s amazing—.
Citron	Speed it up!!
Muku	—Yes!
Passerby A	?!
Muku	Oomph!
Passerby A	W-What!?
Muku	I-I’m sorry!
Passerby B	Kyaa!
Citron	Yo-!
	Sorry, Princess!
Passerby B	!?
Muku	Citron-san, that was very prince-like!!
Citron	Come on, let’s go!
Muku	Yeah!
	Hah...Hah...
Citron	Fu…It’s okay if you come here…
Muku	Citron, what the heck was that?
Citron	Shh-
Muku	—.
Passerby A	….
Passerby B	….
Muku	…?
Citron	..Okay, they're gone.
Muku	C-Citron, who are those people…?
Citron	Their agents of the Dark Lord.
Muku	The Dark Demon Lord!?
Citron	I’m actually a hero with a mission to defeat the Demon King. I used to be a prince, but I set out on a journey to defeat the Demon King.
Muku	Eeeh?!
Citron	I change jobs at the temple, sometimes I'm a warrior, sometimes I'm a wizard, sometimes I'm a foreign student...
	By the way, I am now an actor and a playboy.
Muku	Is that true?
Citron	It’s true. I never lie.
Muku	Citron is a brave man…
Citron	You don’t want to tell anyone, do you? If they knew, you wouldn’t be here anymore.
Muku	I understand! I won’t tell anyone!
Citron	I’m currently raising my level in order to defeat the Demon King, and it’ll be a problem if they find out where the MANKAI Company is.
Muku	I’ll keep an eye on them so they won’t find you!
Citron	Thank you, Muku.
Muku	Leave it to me
Citron	I’m back~
Muku	Ah, welcome back Citron-Sama!
Yuki	Citron..Sama?
Muku	I haven't spotted anyone today, so this place is still safe.
Citron	I’m glad to hear it. Continue to guard the hideout.
Muku	Got it!!
Citron	Today I gained one level and equipped myself with a new gold bracelet
Muku	Woah~ It looks good!
	It’s amazing! Citron-Sama!
Yuki	Hey, why are you calling him that?
Muku	Huh?? Wh-What?!
	Uh, Uhh…
Yuki	What?
Muku	I’m so sorry! No matter how much I like Yuki-Kun, I just can’t talk about this…!
Citron	That’s right, Yuki. This is a secret between me and Muku
Yuki	Oh really.
Citron	Muku, we will continue to work together to protect the peace of the earth.
Muku	Muku, Yes! Citron-Sama!
Yuki	There it is, the delusional duo
Muku	It’s not a delusion!
Citron	Mhm
	Don't ask, it’s a secret!
Yuki	Yes, yes. You two go ahead and do whatever you want.
Citron	Muku, I don’t blame you. An important mission is not something that ordinary
Muku	Let’s do our best together!!
Yuki	...
