Homare Arisugawa/Miraculous Blue Rose
From A3! Wiki
Welcome to the Rose Garden
Backstage Stories| Izumi | Is this all of it... |
| Homare | Oh, if it isn't Director-kun. |
| Izumi | Homare-san. Are you coming home from work? |
| Homare | Yes, I had a meeting with my editor. Are you out shopping? |
| Izumi | Yeah. I was just about to go home. |
| Homare | You seem to have done a lot of shopping. I'll help you carry half of it. |
| Izumi | Thanks, sorry to trouble you. |
| Homare | Oh right, I have something special to tell you today. |
| Izumi | Something special? |
| Homare | I'll tell you later when we get home. I also need to talk to Sakyo-san. |
| Izumi | Got it. I look forward to it. |
| Muku | And then, this boy really looks like a prince— |
| Homare | We've arrived home. |
| Izumi | We're home. |
| Muku | Arisu-san, Director-san, welcome back! |
| Yuki | Welcome back. |
| Izumi | It's really lively. What were you guys doing? |
| Sakyo | Sakisaka was just recommending me a manga. |
| Yuki | The conversation was derailing and before I knew it, it turned into a shoujo manga presentation. |
| Homare | Ohh! In that case I shall also do a presentation of my poetry collection together with— |
| Yuki | That's unnecessary. |
| Sakyo | Sakisaka, I'll check out the manga some other time. |
| Muku | Yes, of course! |
| Homare | Ah, that's right. Sakyo-san, can I have a bit of your time? I have something to talk to you about. |
| Sakyo | What is it? |
| Muku | Well then, we'll go back to— |
| Homare | Ah, everyone can stay as they are. |
| Do you know of the event called the Rose Festival? | |
| Izumi | Rose Festival? |
| Yuki | I don't. |
| Muku | I've never heard of it. |
| Homare | Simply put, it's a rose exhibition. However, not only is it an exhibition but it is also a competition show. |
| I was invited to be a guest judge! | |
| Izumi | Hee, that's amazing! |
| Homare | Indeed. You can say that I'm the most suitable person for a rose exhibition. |
| Sakyo | I see. Then— |
| Homare | You were probably going to say that we should promote the company at that event. In that case I have already discussed it with them. |
| The management said that they would like to invite us to participate as a guide to convey the glamour of roses. | |
| He even thought of a setting for the troupe to take part in! | |
| Sakyo | Being a guide while playing a role, huh. |
| Homare | Indeed. The roles are that befitting of a Rose Festival—The Rose Prince! |
| Muku | Uwaa, that sounds really lovely! |
| Sakyo | It's nice to let someone else do the negotiating once in a while. |
| Yuki | You can make the costumes here, right? |
| Homare | By all means. |
| Yuki | Rose Prince...I look forward to making it. |
| Izumi | Then we should decide who will be participating. |
| Homare | As for me, when I heard that it's a prince, I thought of Muku-kun. Please consider participating. |
| Muku | Well...I really want to participate but I have plans for that day... |
| Um, how about we let Yuki-kun participate this time? | |
| Yuki | Huh, me? |
| Muku | Yeah! You were a princess at the time of "The Floral Prince" play, and I've always wanted to see Yuki-kun as a prince. |
| Yuki | ...Well, that's fine. If you ever decide to participate, I can just adjust your costume before the show. |
| Sakyo | So Arisugawa and Rurikawa are decided. The rest— |
| Itaru | Hm? Are you guys having a meeting? |
| Izumi | Itaru-san, good timing. Do you have any plans for this day? |
| Itaru | Oh, the game will release a new area on that day, so I'll be staying up all night to defeat— |
| Homare | You should become the Rose Prince and guide the customers together with us at the Rose Festival, Itaru-kun! |
| Yuki | The Elite Swindler has nothing good aside from his face, so I think it'll suit him. |
| Itaru | Not only your reason for choosing me was crude, I don't see how it correlates at all. |
| Muku | But if it's Itaru-san, I think he'll definitely be a cool prince! |
| Sakyo | All you do is play games, how about contributing more to the company? |
| Izumi | Itaru-san, I'm counting on you to be the Rose Prince! |
| Itaru | ...Doesn't seem like I even have the right to choose. |
| Yuki | If it's a prince costume, then I can really go all out. I'm gonna put a lot of frills on it. |
| Homare | Ohh, sounds like it will be an extravagant costume. I really look forward to it. |
| Itaru | This year it's frills, huh, lucky me... Please go easy on me. |
| Yuki | Didn't I tell you before? You better put in effort to match your costume. |
| Itaru | Ugh... |
| Izumi | Yees. |
| Homare | Sorry to intrude. |
| Izumi | Homare-san, do you need something? |
| Homare | Would you please spare me some of your time right now, Director-kun? |
| Izumi | ...? |
 |
|
| Homare | Please help yourself. |
| Izumi | Then excuse me. It's been a while since we had the Summer and Winter Troupe training camp. The roses here are as beautiful as ever. |
| Homare | That is true. These roses are the pride of the Arisugawa family. |
| Let's start the tea party. Please sit down here. | |
| Izumi | Thank you very much. |
| So you came here to role study for the Rose Festival, Homare-san. | |
| Homare | Indeed. I reckon that surrounding myself in a place full of roses will give me some hints. |
| Izumi | That's right. But, was it okay for me to come along with you? |
| Homare | Of course. I am the one who invited you here, after all. |
| Izumi | I'm happy to hear that, but if you're here for role studying, wouldn't it be easier for you to concentrate if you're alone... |
| Homare | No, in fact all sorts of ideas are born from my conversations with you, Director-kun. |
| What's more, having a tea party by yourself is a bit lackluster. | |
| Izumi | Understood. In that case, I'll accompany you. |
| Homare | I am counting on you. |
| ... | |
| Looking at the roses here reminds me of the past. | |
| Izumi | The past... |
| Homare | As you know, my grandmother doesn't laugh much. |
| It was my grandmother's birthday on a certain year. | |
| The young me wanted to give her something as a present, and a thorn pricked my hand while I was holding a rose to give to my grandmother. | |
| My grandmother only said one word, "thanks". ...So I have no idea if she was truly happy or not. | |
| Izumi | ...I'm sure your grandmother was very happy. |
| Even if it's just a single rose, I think any woman would be happy to receive such a beautiful flower. | |
| Homare | I see...you're right. |
| Homare | It seems that a lot of time has passed before we knew it. |
| Izumi | You're right, it's already this late. Shall we return back to the dorm? |
| Homare | Certainly. |
| —Director-kun. | |
| Izumi | Yes? |
| Homare | Thank you for keeping me company today. Please accept this rose. |
| Izumi | Are you sure? |
| Homare | It's to express my gratitude for today. Please accept it. |
|
CHOICE 1: It's very beautiful. [+]
|
|
|
CHOICE 2: I'm grateful. [+]
|
|
| Izumi | But I think your gentlemanly behavior is wonderful, Homare-san. |
| Homare | Thank you, Director-kun. Come now, let us do our best on the day of the performance! |
 |
|
| Izumi | I'll be counting on you three for today! Don't forget to give the customers a rose. |
| Homare | Rest assured. |
| Yuki | Yeees. |
| Itaru | 'Kaaay~ |
| Izumi | Don't act so sloppy, Itaru-san. You're a prince today! |
| Yuki | Being a prince isn't only about the face. |
| Itaru | So harsh. |
| Izumi | Look, it's already started. You should get going now. |
| (The costumes are perfect, I'm looking forward to seeing what kind of prince each of them is gonna play!) | |
| Izumi | Ah, it's Yuki-kun. |
| Yuki | Welcome, little princess. A pink rose for the cute princess. |
| Girl | Thank you, Onii-chan. |
| Yuki | As expected, this beautiful rose looks perfect on you. |
| Girl | Ehehe... |
| Yuki | Fufu, your cheeks also turned rosy. ...Well then, enjoy yourself until the end. |
| Izumi | (Yuki-kun looks just like a noble prince. I'll send some pictures to Muku-kun later.) |
| Itaru | Do you want a rose from me? |
| Woman A | Y-yes...! |
| Izumi | (Um, looks like Itaru-kun is playing as a pompous type of character...) |
| Itaru | If you want it that much, I'll give it to you. —However, don't accept any roses from anyone other than me for the rest of your life. |
| Female Customers | Kyaa! |
| Itaru | Go enjoy yourself to the fullest. Although I know that you want nothing more than to keep seeing me. |
| Woman A | How lovely... |
| Izumi | (But well, the customers seem to be happy, I wonder if that kind of prince is actually popular...?) |
| Izumi | (I wonder what kind of prince Homare-san will be playing as?) |
| Homare | You finally came. Come now, accept this rose. Don't be shy. |
| Izumi | (Hm? What is it, something feels out of place...) |
| Homare | This rose is a popular one. Take a look at this beauty! |
| It looks like as if each of the rose petals is singing. Don't you also think so? | |
| Izumi | (This is...the usual Homare-san?!) |
| Homare | It is said that there are 20,000 to 40,000 different types of roses. It is created one after another by selective breeding. |
| Not only is it beautiful, but the scent is also magnificent. I hope you enjoy the variety of roses today. | |
| Customer A | That prince is very well-informed. |
| Customer B | Let's ask him for recommendations. |
| Izumi | (Perhaps because Homare-san has an emotional attachment to roses, he purposely chose to act as his usual self...) |
| Itaru | I'm tired~ |
| Izumi | Good work. Playing as a pompous prince looked like fun. |
| Yuki | A pompous prince? |
| Itaru | I feel like the noble shining prince image doesn't really suit me, so I tried to portray it that way. |
| I'm glad you liked it though. | |
| Izumi | Yuki-kun's noble prince image was also really cool. |
| Yuki | I watched the rest of the Summer Troupe's role as princes and used them for reference. |
| Besides, I was able to make a different kind of prince costume from that time, so I'm quite satisfied. | |
| Izumi | But I really didn't expect Homare-san to play as his usual self. |
| Homare | At first, I was contemplating to play as a prince with more of a cool and serious look... |
| However, when you told me that I am "wonderful" just by being my usual self, it really left an impression on my heart. | |
| So I thought I should just play as myself as it is. There's also the case that I have an emotional attachment to roses. | |
| Izumi | You displayed a lot of your feelings and knowledge, the customers were really happy. |
| Homare | Indeed, indeed! |
| Izumi | Speaking of which, Homare-san was also a guest judge at the show, right? |
| Homare | Yes, I was surging with an overflow of poetic inspiration since some time ago! |
| Noses delighted by the fragrant of roses, involuntary pose, beauty that is falling apart, fluttering and burning~! | |
| Yuki | He completely forgot about being a prince. |
| Itaru | But, Homare-san's prince characteristic is also princely, isn't it? |
| Izumi | Please keep it down a bit, Homare-san...! |
