Backstage Stories

Azami	Ju… Wait, no…
	Ah… Um, 213. I want to do a hair and makeup test tonight.
Juza	Got it… 187.
Azami	‘Prisoner Number Week’ started, but I still haven’t been able to get your numbers down….
Juza	Me too. I have to stop and think a bit before I speak.
Azami	Right. It’s gonna take me a little while before I remember them, and get used to responding to my number.
Kumon	That 'Prisoner Number Week’ seems fun! So everyone in Autumn Troupe calls each other by their role’s numbers?
Azami	Yeah. We just can’t get our prisoner numbers down, it’s slowing down our tempo.
	Well, I guess we’ll get used to them soon…
Kumon	It’s hard to remember all those numbers~.
	Oh, right! How about memorizing them through mneumonics? Like what’d you do for years in history!?
Azami	Mneumonics?
Kumon	Yeah! Wouldn’t that make it easier to remember?
	Nii-chan’s number is 213, right? Then…. 'Nii-san’!'Cause he’s Nii-chan!
Azami	I see… When you put it like that, it’s easy to remember Juza-san’s number.
Kumon	You’ll remember it perfectly like this!
Juza	187, d'ya want to finalize the hair and makeup?
Azami	Yeah, I’ll get my stuff ready now. I’ll call you when I’m done.
Juza	Got it.
Azami	(I’m ready, guess I should call Juza-san.)
	Nii-san.
Juza	?
Azami	…..Shit.
	(I was thinking of the mneumonic, but I ended up just saying it instead…)
Azuma	By Nii-san, do you mean Juza?
Azami	No, it’s…
Tsumugi	Juza-kun plays your older brother in the next play, right? I get why you’d call him that.
Tasuku	When you’re absorbed in your role, mistakes like that happen. I do it too.
Juza	What, that’s… I guess it’s not wrong in the context of our roles.
Azami	(That’s not why I made the mistake, though….)
	Sorry, I just…
Juza	Don’t worry about it. I should get that deep into my role, too.
Azami	R-Right…
