Backstage Stories
| Izumi | Where could Kazunari-kun be… |
| (...Oh! There he is!) | |
| Kazunari-kun—— | |
| Kazunari | !! |
| ——... | |
| Izumi | —— |
| Kazunari | Yes, understood… Yes, I'm in the middle of that now. If anything comes up, please feel free to contact me again. |
| That'll be all. Thank you. | |
| … Soooorry, Director-chan!! My call's finally done, go ahead!! | |
| Izumi | No, no, I should be the one to apologize…! I didn't think you'd be in the middle of an online meeting. |
| Kazunari | Nah, it's on me for choosing this place to have my meeting! |
| They just called me on such short notice, and Mukkun was in our room so I couldn't just do it there… I'm sorry for not telling you sooner! | |
| Izumi | Are you still in the middle of working right now? I can come back later. |
| Kazunari | I told you it's all good now! Didn't you have something to talk to me about? What's up? |
| Izumi | Well, the theme for your photoshoot prompt has finally been decided, so I thought I'd come to let you know. |
| Kazunari | FR!? That's the thing I've been dying to know!! |
| So? What kind of setting did they choose for me? | |
| Izumi | You see… |
| Kumon | Oh man, that air hockey match we just had got sooo heated up! |
| Yuki | It sure became a spectacle within the arcade. |
| Kazunari | It's been so long since I got to play air hockey~ Feels like I haven't been seeing a lot of those in arcades recently. |
| Muku | Now that you mention it…! But getting to move our bodies like that was so fun. |
| Kumon | For sure! We even got to see a whole bunch of tricks, too! Sumii-san's trick was especially amazing! Like, what a move! |
| Misumi | Triangle Smash! Fwip! |
| Kumon | That's the one! |
| Tenma | Having almost inhumane skills of reflex is one thing, but didn't he miss just about every shot he made? |
| Muku | But Misumi-san still looked so cool when he pulled it off. |
| Misumi | I can teach you how to do it next time, Muku! |
| *PHONE BUZZES* | |
| Kazunari | —Oopsies, that's mine. |
| …… | |
| Muku | Is it work? |
| Kazunari | Ahh… Yeah, it is. |
| Tenma | Take it; we'll be here. |
| Kazunari | …'Kay. |
| *FOOTSTEPS WALKING AWAY* | |
| Yuki | The fate that comes with being a working adult, huh… |
| Misumi | Itaru calls those kinds of people "corporate slaves". |
| Tenma | Don't just go picking up weird phrases like that. |
| Kazunari | Sorry for leaving~ |
| Kumon | Kazu-san, is everything good? Maybe it'd be better if we head back home for now. |
| Kazunari | Everything's fine! They just wanted to talk to me about my payment date. |
| Muku | You've been really busy, Kazu-kun… You've got the magazine photoshoot coming up too, right? |
| Yuki | Can you keep up? With your schedule, I mean. |
| Kazunari | I'll be fine! It'll be fine! |
| Misumi | What sort of photoshoot are you gonna do, Kazu? |
| Kazunari | You mean my prompt? |
| Misumi | Yeah! |
| Kazunari | Oh, it's gonna be like "reading together in a library" type of sitch. |
| Yuki | A prompt like that? For you? That's like night and day. |
| Tenma | Are you sure that's supposed to be for you? |
| Kazunari | Aw come on, guys…!! |
| Muku | I think a character gap like that would make my heart skip a beat~ |
| Kumon | Those kinds of situations happen in some of your manga too, don't they, Muku? |
| Misumi | Good luck, Kazu~ |
| Kazunari | Thanks!! I'll make it so that every person who reads my column will have their hearts captured by yours truly✩ |
| Tenma | Just make sure not to overwork yourself. |
| Kazunari | … I will. |
| Kazunari | Hrmm… | ||||||||
| (I just can't seem to come up with anything for this design proposal…) | |||||||||
| (I know I told myself I won't be overworking, but because I'm getting paid to meet the deadline, I HAVE to hand over something to the client.) | |||||||||
| (Maaaybe I bit off more than I can chew…) | |||||||||
| (Oh. Speaking of, my photoshoot's location is going to be a library, isn't it?) | |||||||||
| A library… | |||||||||
| (Now that I think about it, it's been so long since I last visited one.) | |||||||||
| (Maybe I'll even come up with some new ideas while taking in the atmosphere of the place.) | |||||||||
| (——I guess I can head over and give it a shot.) | |||||||||
| Kazunari | (Now what book should I go with…) | ||||||||
| (Hm? Over there… Is that——) | |||||||||
| Muku | …… | ||||||||
| Kazunari | (It's Mukkun. Is he looking for something…?) | ||||||||
 |
|||||||||
| Muku | …!! | ||||||||
| Kazunari | (Looks like he found the book he was searching for, by the looks of it!) | ||||||||
| Kazunari | (I made a surprising amount of progress with my work last time I dropped by.) | ||||||||
| (It feels like I get into a much better mood by coming to the library after getting stuck on ideas.) | |||||||||
| …Hm? That red hair. Isn't that Taicchan…? | |||||||||
 |
|||||||||
| Taichi | …… | ||||||||
| Kazunari | (It looks like he's desperately studying over there…) | ||||||||
| (Oh right, didn't Ten-ten mention that they've got tests coming up in school?) | |||||||||
| (Kumopi and Hyodole have been confiding with our dorm's tutors, too…) | |||||||||
| (Taicchan looks like he's also working hard for his studies~) | |||||||||
| Kazunari | (Another day, another visit to the library. It does feel like I've been stopping by here a lot recently…) | ||||||||
| (Wonder what I should do this time…) | |||||||||
| (Oh, right! I got curious about this one novel that I stumbled upon while I was looking for research materials— they should still have the book here.) | |||||||||
| (I think it was around on this shelf… Here it is) | |||||||||
| (My workload's settled down for now too. I'll give it a read then!) | |||||||||
| (... Huh? Is it me, or is it pretty crowded today? Can't seem to find a free seat anywhere…) | |||||||||
| (Hmm… Guess I'll borrow it out and take it home.) | |||||||||
| Izumi | Kazunari-kun? | ||||||||
| Kazunari | Director-chan!? | ||||||||
| Izumi | Funny bumping into you here. | ||||||||
| Kazunari | Samsies. I've been visiting this library a lot these days; I was thinking of doing a little reading today, actually. | ||||||||
| Izumi | Is that so! Then why don't you take a seat beside me? | ||||||||
| Kazunari | ——... | ||||||||
| Izumi | Kazunari-kun…? | ||||||||
| Kazunari | Oh! Yeah, sure. Thanks! | ||||||||
| Izumi | Have you been coming to the library to study for your photoshoot? | ||||||||
| Kazunari | Well, that's one of the reasons, but I've also been digging into materials related for work too. | ||||||||
| And before I knew it, I was having lots of fun reading different books I never knew of before. | |||||||||
| I've been doing a bit of people-watching, too, and I was surprised to see how everyone else was also visiting the library. | |||||||||
|
CHOICE 1: Libraries are so interesting, aren't they? [+]
|
|||||||||
|
CHOICE 2: All sorts of people come by here, don't they? [+]
|
|||||||||
| Kazunari | And since the upcoming photoshoot is gonna be in a library too, I'm all stoked for it~! | ||||||||
| Kazunari | Oh, hype!! This place has sooooo much style! |
| Izumi | This place must be some sort of book cafe, right? |
| Staff A | Good morning. Pleased to be working with you today. |
| Izumi | Thank you for having us as well. |
| Kazunari | Pleased to work with you all! |
| Staff A | Fufu, this place looks amazing, doesn't it? They just finished working on this library building only recently. |
| Kazunari | So it's really a library… |
| Izumi | Is that so? It's such a chic place. |
| Kazunari | Uhm, excuse me, but can I request to do a specific direction with my setting? |
| Staff A | Of course. If you have an idea, we'll very much welcome it. |
| Kazunari | Really? In that case, what I want to happen is—— |
| Izumi | (Kazunari-kun is really acting like a working adult now… I wonder what kind of direction he wants, though?) |
| Staff A | That sounds excellent, actually. Let's give it a try. Oh, and feel free to select any book you'd like here. |
| Kazunari | Thank you very much! |
| Izumi | (But I suppose there's nothing for me to worry about. It's Kazunari-kun, after all. I'm excited to see how he'll do in this photoshoot.) |
| Kazunari | ….!! |
| ——....Come. Over here. | |
| *SHUTTER CLICKS* | |
| Izumi | (So he's doing a little bit of acting while having his photos taken… It does help with getting the mood across.) |
| Staff B | Get a closer shot, please! |
| Cameraman | …. |
 |
|
| Kazunari | Shh… Keep your voice down— just enough for it to reach only my ears, alright? |
| Izumi | (I see. This is what he wanted then.) |
| Staff B | I think we got a really good one, don't you think? |
| Staff C | Checkiiiing—— |
| Izumi | That was amazing, Kazunari-kun. Did you come up with it yourself? |
| Kazunari | You could say that~ … But really, I was just imitating you, Director-chan. |
| Izumi | Eh? |
| Kazunari | I doubt you were self-aware of it at the time— |
| But when we sat together and had to keep quiet at the library before, our faces just got naturally close whenever we'd talk, didn't they? | |
| And I thought, "Wow! This is the kind of stuff that'll get people's hearts squeezing!"; so I thought I'd apply it for today's shoot. | |
| Izumi | R-Really now… |
| Kazunari | Hehe. Well? Did I make your heart squeeze? |
| Izumi | I meaaaan… Maybe. Only a bit. |
| Kazunari | Awh whaaaaat~! |
| Izumi | (——But if Kazunari-kun was aiming to give that feeling with the same gesture, would that mean HE felt his heart squeeze before?) |
