	*knock, knock*
Kumon	You there, Muku?
	I came to return your manga!
Muku	You’ve read it already, huh, Kyu-chan?
	Did it serve as reference for a Gymnasium?
Kumon	Yeah, it was super useful!
	Thanks, Muku!
Muku	I’m glad if it helped.
	You’re going to help out for a doll exhibition this time, right?
Kumon	Yep! You might’ve heard about it already, but Homare-san’s artist friend made some dolls using a Gymnasium theme.
Muku	You, Hisoka-san and Sakuya-kun are acting as students while showing the guests around the venue, right?
Kumon	Right. That’s why I thought I should know what kinda place a Gymnasium is.
Muku	You’re working hard, Kyu-chan.
Kumon	Hehe!
Muku	Anyways, Gymnasiums are wonderful, right?
	I really wanted to do it too if my schedule worked out.
Kumon	That reminds me, Director said that there’s lots of manga that are set at Gymnasiums!
	Do you like Gymnasium stuff too, Muku?
Muku	Of course! The uniforms are lovely, and I admire their school life in Europe.
Kumon	AHH!
	Speaking of ways of life…
	In that manga, they rang a bell to let everyone at the dorm know when dinner was ready.
	I wanna try doing that!
	This is a dorm too, so it’s perfect.
Muku	That sounds nice!
	But I wonder if we have a bell…
Kumon	I’m not sure, but there’ll probably be one if I search!
	I’ll check out the storage room!
Izumi	Ok, I guess that'll be it for tonight's dinner.
Kumon	Are you done making dinner, Director?
Izumi	Yeah, I just finished now.
Kumon	Alright, I’ll let everyone know using this bell!
Izumi	Bell?
Kumon	Yep!
	*ring, ring*
	I read it in Muku’s manga, but at Gymnasiums, they use a bell to notify everyone when it's dinnertime.
	So that’s why I thought I’d try doing the same thing!
Izumi	I see, so you’re preparing for your Gymnasium role.
	I guess I’ll ask you to do that then if that’s the case.
Kumon	Leave it to me!
	*ring, ring*
	EVERYONEEE, DINNER’S READYYY!
	*ring, ring*
Sakyo	What the hell are you doin’, Hyodo lil bro?
	It’s fricken noisy—.
Kumon	WAHH!? HOLD ON, SAKYO-SAN!
	This is a part of my role study…!
Sakyo	Oh, I see, I get what you’re saying.
	In that case, I’ll allow you to use that thing.
Kumon	Yayyy!
Sakyo	However, be careful not to overdo it ‘n cause a nuisance to the neighbourhood.
Kumon	Got it!

Omi	There, dinner’s done.
	Go head, Kumon.
Kumon	Roger that!
Misumi	Hey, Kumon. Are you heading over to where everyone is to notify them again today~?
Kumon	Yep, for a dinner announcement!
Misumi	Then can I go too?
	I’ll let everyone know together with Kumon using these bells!
	*jingles*
Kumon	Ah, that! That’s what you got from our keychain exchange party, right?
Misumi	Yeah! I thought it’d be fun if I rang these together with Kumon’s bell~!
Kumon	That does sound fun!
	‘Kay, let’s head out together!
Misumi	Let’s go~!
	*ring, ring*
Kumon	Dinner’s ready~!
	*jingles*
Misumi	Food, food~!
Manager	Oho? Kumon-kun and Ikaruga-kun are having a jam session with their bells today, huh? You look like you’re enjoying yourselves, so that’s great.
Kumon	Ahaha, guess so!
Manager	In that case, I’ll also…!
	Wait here for a second, alright~.
Kumon	I wonder what’s up with the manager?
Misumi	Right~?
Manager	Sorry for the wait!
	*rattles*
Kumon	A tambourine!?
Manager	If you’re having such a cheerful jam session, then I’d definitely love to join you guys!
	That’s fine, right!
	I’m sure it’ll be fun~.
	*rattles*
Misumi	Yeah, sounds great!
	Let’s do it all together, Kumon~!
	*jingles*
Kumon	Ummm… just a little then!
	*ring, jingle, rattle*
	Hehe, this is awesome!
	*ring, jingle, rattle*
Sakyo	OI, HYODO LIL BRO!
Kumon	Y-YES!?
Sakyo	You’ve been making a racket!
	I told you not to disturb the neighbours, didn’t I!
Kumon	Wahhh, I’m so sorry!
Sakyo	IKARUGA, MATSUKAWA!
	You guys who did it together with him aren’t off the hook either.
Misumi	Sooorry!
Manager	Eeek, I apologize!
Sakyo	Good grief…
Kumon	I'm seriously really sorry!!
