Masumi Usui/Magicians' Pure Love

Role Study 【Sugu Kieru】

Backstage Stories

Part 1

Tsuzuru	Even though we went out of our way to come to a board game café,
	This werewolf game didn’t become role-making at all.
Izumi	Ahaha… But, it was a good breather.
Itaru	Alright then next, how about playing the game I recommend for Masumi?
	Yep, here.
	The name's… “I Want to Tell You These Words of Proposal”.
	It’s a game where you draw several cards, and then using the words that were written,
	Think of words for a comical or witty proposal—.
	The leader of the game selects which proposal was the best,
	And the person that was chosen wins.
Sakuya	Words of proposal…
	Somehow it’s a bit heart-pounding.
Izumi	I was thinking, surely, it would be a game with magician elements included.
Itaru	I tried choosing a game featuring Kieru’s “first love”,
	With a slightly different taste.
Chikage	Oh I see then.
Masumi	It’s rare Itaru worked.
Tsuzuru	You’re really looking down on him, huh…
Citron	First of all, choose the leader!
Masumi	You do it.
Izumi	Eh?
Masumi	It’s just a game, and somehow I don’t want to propose to anyone except you.
Izumi	Then it won’t become a game!
	Why don’t we decide the leader with rock-paper-scissors?
Citron	Ok, then now~…
	Rock-paper-scissors!
Sakuya	—Ahh.
Itaru	Director alone wins.
Chikage	In the end, the one tasked to be the leader is Director, huh.
Izumi	It turned out that way in the end, huh…
Masumi	As expected, the only person my words of proposal are dedicated to is you.
Tsuzuru	Sure sure, for now let’s just start.
Izumi	Ok, 10 seconds have passed.
Citron	Oh—, there’s not enough time to think~!
Sakuya	It’s hard, huh…!
Izumi	Alright first off, please start from Itaru-san as an example.
Itaru	Ok.
	…Ahem
	“You are” “A lovely” “Little kitten”
	“Cheers to” “Twinkling” “Me” …Let’s get married.
Tsuzuru	Err, a lovely little kitten was good,
	But what are you doing cheers-ing yourself!
Itaru	I don’t have the right cards, ok.
	Besides, I think it might be good to go with a unique feeling.
Citron	Yay nice—!
	They can be combined into various lines, so it’s very interesting!
Itaru	Come on, next is Tsuzuru.
	Go ahead with your proposal.
Tsuzuru	Uh… W-well then.
	“Honey” “I want you to hear” “You are” “An angel”
	“Madly in love” “Merry-go-round” …Let’s get married.
Izumi	Ahaha, madly in love merry-go-round, that’s cute.
Masumi	It’s obvious she’s an angel.
Chikage	At least, isn’t it more coherent than Chigasaki?
Sakuya	As expected of Tsuzuru-kun!
Citron	Next is Sakuya!
Sakuya	Y-yes!
	“You are” “My” “Happy” “Heart pounding” “Partner”
	“I think so” “I’ll treasure you” Please marry me!
Itaru	Ohh.
Chikage	Wasn’t that straightforward?
Sakuya	Really!?
	Maybe I drew the cards well.
Masumi	I definitely won’t lose…
Citron	Masumi’s fighting spirit caught fire~.
Tsuzuru	Then next is Chikage-san.
Chikage	“You are” “A crazy” “Goddess” “I am” “Obsessed”
	“I want to hug you” …Let’s get married.
Tsuzuru	A crazy goddess…
Itaru	That’s true, Director-san becomes crazy when it comes to curry.
Izumi	What’s that supposed to mean?
	Just say loves curry, please.
Sakuya	Next is, Citron-san!
Citron	Leave it to me!
	“Precious” “Miso soup” “Fairy”
	“Baby” “I love you” “Ultra” “Romantic” “Thief” Let’s get married!
Itaru	What’s a miso soup fairy?
Tsuzuru	Ultra romantic thief also has an impressive impact.
Masumi	In a sense, that’s typical Citron.
Sakuya	Somehow it’s passionate though…!
Chikage	Well then, last is Masumi, huh?
Masumi	I’m nervous…
Tsuzuru	Hey, you’re constantly saying proposal-like stuff, you know?
Sakuya	Masumi-kun, good luck!
Citron	Masumi, fight on!
Masumi	‘Kay.
	…Director, I have something important to say.
Izumi	Y-yes.
Masumi	“I think” “About you” “A happy” “Heart”
	“Tied together” “You and I” “Really” “Heart-fluttering” “I won’t let go”
Sakuya	Wahh…!
Itaru	It’s like a proper proposal.
Masumi	“I love everything” “I want to know more”
	“I won’t hand you over to anyone”
Izumi	…Hm?
Citron	That kind of word isn’t on the card?
Masumi	I want to be together forever. The world’s cutest.
	Haa, I like you, lovesick. Marry me.
Tsuzuru	Wait, he’s already becoming unconcerned about the cards!
Masumi	Director, choose me…
Izumi	That violates the rules so I can’t!
Chikage	He's unwavering as usual.
