Poetic Inspiration Won’t Come!?
Backstage Stories
| Homare | ...hnnn... |
| ...it’s hot. | |
| Hot, it’s hot. ...and still, it’s hot! Why are Japanese summers so hot!? | |
| No matter the level of genius, my fountain of ideas will dry up in these circumstances. | |
| ... | |
| AAAAARGH~!! | |
| ...it’s hopeless. There’s no sufficient method to get my poetic inspiration flowing... | |
| buzz buzz | |
| Hm? | |
| ...h-hey! Shoo, shoo! | |
| What are you lot!? This is breaking and entering, begone! | |
| buzz buzz | |
| So you have no intention of leaving. If that is your plan, I will show you no mercy. | |
| There! | |
| SMACK | |
| Mgh! This way, no, this way? ...ugh, I’ve lost them!? | |
| SMACK | |
| H-How agile... | |
| Arrgh, because I moved around I’m sweaty, and even hotter, and tired... | |
| ...hey, Hisoka-kun! You’re actually awake, are you not? Won’t you exterminate these mosquitoes in my stead? | |
| Hisoka | ...zzz... |
| Homare | Hisoka-kun! Hisoka-kun! Get rid of these mosquitoes, if you would! |
| Hisoka | Nn... Alice... be quiet... |
| ...nm, zzz... | |
| buzz buzz | |
| Homare | ~!! Ahh, for god’s sake!!! |
| phone rings | |
| And at a time like this... who could it possibly be! | |
| Yes, hello! | |
| Editor | “Arisugawa-sensei! The deadline is—! If we don’t give them a manuscript by the end of the day, we’ll really be in a bind!” |
| Homare | I am diligently writing as we speak! I’m busy right now. Please don’t call me today until I contact you!” |
| Editor | “Ah, sensei—!” |
| beep | |
| Homare | Sigh. For starters, why haven’t we called a contractor when it’s been a week since the air conditioner broke...! |
| And as soon as I open the window to let the wind in, it barely comes in and uninvited guests just start trespassing... | |
| There’s supposed to be a window screen— | |
| Wh–!? | |
| Ridiculous... there’s a hole...? | |
| So, you pinpointed this hole and invaded to sip on this genius blood...? | |
| —but now isn’t the time to be saying such things! Ugh, what is the meaning of this!? | |
| Sigh, if it’s come to this...! | |
| Homare | Manager!! |
| Manager | ??? Yes, can I help you? |
| Homare | Don’t “can I help you” me. When is this dorm’s broken air conditioner going to be repaired!? |
| To make matters worse, even if I try to open a window, the window screen has a hole in it and mosquitoes come in... | |
| I can’t concentrate on writing poetry like this! | |
| Manager | Ahh. There are plans to fix that tomorrow. |
| Homare | Tomorrow isn’t good enough! My deadline is today, therefore I’ll be in trouble if you don’t fix it today! |
| Manager | E-Even so... |
| The repairman said that it’s really busy this time of year, so they could only fit us in tomorrow... | |
| Homare | Good grief, you’re still our manager, are you not!? Try a LITTLE harder! |
| Manager | Urk, y-yes, I’m sorry... |
| Homare | Hmm... flushed mojito, no, a tropical rainforest eight-beat... that’s not right... |
| buzz buzz | |
| Mmm... fluttering mosquito... fluttering mosquito~... | |
| Non, non. That doesn’t feel right either... | |
| knock knock | |
| Ah. | |
| Izumi | Homare-san. |
| Azuma | Homare, are you in there? |
| Homare | ...? Yes, but did you need something? |
| Izumi | The manager talked to us, so we bought you a mosquito coil! |
| Homare | ...! My, this is...! |
| Azuma | Your deadline is today, right? Sorry... we stopped by the store on our way home, so it ended up late. |
| Homare | Not at all, just not being able to hear the mosquitoes anymore will make a great difference. I shall gratefully accept this. |
| And what more, it’s shaped like a pig, is it not? As for the mosquito coil, surely it’s this, I see. | |
| Well then, I shall light it immediately... | |
| Oh? This is quite an unusually scented incense...? | |
| Izumi | When we went to the store, there were some lavender-scented mosquito coils, so we bought one to try it out. What do you think? |
| Homare | Ohh! There is such a thing these days!? |
| Azuma | Fufu, we thought it would be a nice change of pace. |
| Homare | ...it seems I cannot hear the mosquitoes anymore either. Little by little, poetic inspiration is... |
| Ha!! I’ve got it...! | |
| Brilliant lavender~ swirling mosquito coil, luululu, this feeling is victory! | |
| Ahh, they are coming one after another! I must pen these immediately! | |
| Azuma | Looks like he can write in peace now. I’m glad. |
| Izumi | Yeah. |
| Homare | Yes, yes, as expected, I’m a genius...! At this rate, I should meet my deadline! |
