TsuzuruAll right then, you can use this futon. Feel free to ask if there’s anything you don’t understand.
TangerineI’m sotty for causing you trouble.
TsuzuruYou mean “sorry,” right. Don’t mind it. Good night.
TangerineGood rice….
...zzzz.
TsuzuruHe’s asleep already. I guess he must be tired.
TangerineUhh——I want you to wake up.
TsuzuruHmm…?
Prince Tangerine? What is it?
Tangerine...I want to go to the toilet.
TsuzuruAhh, all right——I’ll take you there.
TangerineThenks.
TsuzuruYou mean, “Thanks,” right. This reminds me of when my brother was still a child for some reason.
Good night, then.
TangerineGood night…
TsuzuruEh, hey, that’s Masumi’s bed——.
Tangerinezzz…
Masumi——Move over.
TsuzuruHey, that’s cruel.
MasumiWe have a futon there.
Tangerinezzz….
TsuzuruLet him sleep. He’s sleeping comfortably, after all.
MasumiNo.
TsuzuruBut you told director to count on you.
Masumi——.
Tangerine«….zzzz. Onii-sama.»
TsuzuruHe must be missing Citron-san, having come from a faraway country. My brothers also often used to crawl under my futon.
MasumiIt’s hot. How irritating.
TsuzuruYou’re the older brother here, so just endure it.
Masumi*sigh*.
TsuzuruDon’t kick him over——.
Masumizzz…
TsuzuruHe’s sleeping already. Oh gosh.
TangerineMasumi, I’m going to sit next to you.
Masumi….
TangerineMasumi, what is this?
Masumi….
TangerineMasumi, how do you eat this?
Masumi….Annoying.
ChikageYou’re still properly looking after him despite saying that.
ItaruThat’s rare.
TsuzuruSince he’s an only child, he seems to be puzzled by how to deal with someone younger than him.
ItaruWe have even younger members here, but there isn’t any guy relying on Masumi like this.
IzumiBut I’m glad that they seem to be getting along.
Mika«Is Tangerine-sama really not planning to go home?»
Guy«We can only see how it goes for now.»
TaichiMorning.
KumonAh! Is this kid the rumored lil brother?
IzumiLet me introduce them. This is Citron-kun’s younger brother, Prince Tangerine, and his servant, Mika-san.
TaichiNice to meet you!
KumonYou look really similar to Citron-san!
IzumiWell then, I’ll prepare breakfast.
TangerineI’ll help out. He who does not work, neither shall he tea.
IzumiNeither shall he eat?
Mika«Feel free to ask me anything. I’ll help.»
ChikageHe said he’d help out, so you can ask him to do anything.
IzumiI guess I’ll take up on your offer, then.
TangerineTcheee!
Izumi!?
TangerineKirisute gomen![1]
IzumiHo-Hold on, Prince Tangerine! It’s dangerous if you swing around a knife like that!
Besides, the ingredients will fall like rain if you cut it that way——!
TangerineBut Onii-sama told me the people in this country always do this when cutting ingredients.
IzumiWe don’t do that….!
Mika«I apologize. I’ll cut those.»
Izumi(Mika-san looks to be lowering his head like he’s apologizing….?)
Ah, can I ask Mika-san to do it, then?
Prince Tangerine, please wash the dishes there.
TangerineGot it.
IzumiEh, Prince Tangerine, what are you doing!?
TangerineI heard they always spin the plates on a stick in this country.
IzumiNo no no no, it’s dangerous!
Tangerine——eh.
IzumiIt’s falling——!!
MikaHa!
Izumi——Mika-san, nice catch!
Uh, ummmm, as I thought, I’ll wash the dishes instead.
TangerineWhat should I do, then?
IzumiPrince Tangerine, uh….
(I don’t know what else he will do with the false information from Citron-san….)
I think you can go sit there?
Tangerine...I’m sotty. I’m useless….
IzumiIt’s all right. You can sit.
Citron….
Tangerine«Ah, Onii-sama——.»
Citron«You couldn’t have known how to do that when you’ve never did it until now. Besides, there are other things that you should do.»
«Quickly go back to the country.»
Tangerine….
IzumiPrince Tangerine, do you want to try cooking next? I’ll teach you.
CitronThere’s no need to do that, director. Tangerine is in a position where he will be the next king.
IzumiCitron-kun….
Citron….
Izumi(I wonder what’s wrong. Citron-kun is usually not this strict.)
Masumi….
——tch.
This part really is hard.
….But I don’t want to have Citron teach me.
Tangerine——.
Masumi?
TangerineThis song is….
MasumiWhat? It’s awkward if you keep staring at me.
Tangerine….It’d be easier to play that part if you shift position.
MasumiShift position?
TangerineYou basically shift the position of two of your fingers like this. You can play even a higher note with the same strings.
Furthermore, the sound quality will soften.
Masumi——.
TangerineIt sounds different now.
MasumiIt sounds better.
TangerineYou have a smoothie[2] for violin, Masumi.
MasumiIt’s “aptitude.”
TangerineOh, I keep making mistakes…
MasumiTeach me how to play violin.
Tangerine——.
Sure! In exchange, I want you to help teach me about this country, and how to help others!
MasumiGot it.
