Backstage Stories
| Izumi | *Yawn*… So sleepy… |
| Sakuya | Good morning, Director! |
| Masumi | Good morning. |
| You’re cute when you wake up too… | |
| Izumi | Good morning, you two… |
| Sakuya | Director, you don’t look so well… |
| Could you be tired? | |
| Izumi | I couldn’t finish my work… |
| So I was working until early in the morning. | |
| Sakuya | Ehh!? |
| Izumi | I wasn’t able to sleep very much so I might be kind of sleep deprived. |
| Masumi | I’ll take over that job. |
| Izumi | No, no, it’s fine. |
| It’s almost finished so I just need one more push! | |
| Sakuya | Please don’t overdo it, ok? |
| Izumi | Yeah! Thanks. |
| Masumi | … |
| (What I need are carrots and… potatoes and…) | |
| Omi | …Oh? |
| Isn’t that Masumi? | |
| Taichi | Ah! It really is! |
| That’s unexpected. | |
| Masumi | Why are you guys here? |
| Taichi | We’re out shopping for the stuff on sale! |
| What’re you doing, Masumi-kun? | |
| Masumi | …I came to buy ingredients for curry. |
| Taichi | Curry? Could it be for Director-sensei? |
| Masumi | Yeah. Director seems busy these days so I want to make and feed her some curry. |
| If I do that, then I maybe I can make her feel better. | |
| Omi | Oh, I see. |
| Taichi | Director-sensei loves curry, right? |
| I think that’s great! | |
| Omi | I’ll help out too if you have trouble with anything. |
| Masumi | …Yeah. |
| Omi | We were able to buy the sale items, huh? There’s nothing else we forgot to buy… Right. |
| Are you good too, Masumi? | |
| Masumi | I won’t forget anything in order to make curry for her. |
| Taichi | Oh yeah, Masum-kun, what kinda curry are you going with? |
| Masumi | …Butter chicken curry. |
| Omi | Oh, a classic, how nice. |
| Taichi | That sounds tasty~! |
| I wanna eat some too! | |
| Omi | Will you make it for dinner next time? |
| Shop clerk | Welcome~! |
| Omi | Hm? They’re calling out to customers over there. |
| Taichi | Let’s check it out! |
| Shop clerk | Welcome~! |
| Please have a look at our replica food goods if you’d like~. | |
| Omi | Heh, a wagon sale, huh? |
| What’s more, the things displayed here are pretty impressive. | |
| Taichi | They’re high quality! |
| This hotdog strap looks tasty~ | |
| Omi | Haha, that’s true. |
| These ramen and pancake smartphone straps are amazing too. | |
| Masumi | … |
| Taichi | Masumi-kun? Did anything catch your eye? |
| Masumi | …This. |
| Omi | A curry keychain? |
| Masumi | I’ll buy it and bring it back for Director. |
| Omi | That’d be great, right? |
| Taichi | Director-sensei seems like she’ll be happy too! |
| But Masumi-kun, have you decided on which keychain you’ll exchange with everyone yet? | |
| Masumi | …What are you talking about? |
| Taichi | Wait, hold on! |
| Aren’t we doing a real-life gacha as Itaru-san suggested? | |
| Omi | Lots of members lost their keys to the front door, so Sakyo-san told everyone to put keychains on them. |
| Taichi | Yeah, yeah! So then it looks like we’re gonna do a present exchange! |
| Masumi | I haven’t prepared anything. |
| Omi | Well, I guessed that from your reaction. |
| Taichi | You gotta prepare it properly, Masumi-kun! |
| Masumi | …I’ll buy this for now. |
| Taichi | I wonder if Masumi-kun'll seriously prepare for it~… |
| Omi | Well, I think he'll do something about it, right? |
| Shop clerk | Thank you very much for your purchase! |
| Masumi | … |
| Shop clerk | If it’s alright with you, why don’t you buy this sale item at the same time as well? |
| Masumi | …Sale item? |
| Shop clerk | Yes! It’s a great deal~. |
| Masumi | … |
| Izumi | Mmm! This tastes great…! |
| Masumi-kun, you’ve improved again! | |
| Masumi | I’m glad you’re happy with it. |
| You look cute with your cheeks stuffed with curry too… | |
| Izumi | I finished my work, Masumi-kun made curry for me—today’s been a great day all around. |
| Masumi | …There’s one more thing I want you to have. |
| Izumi | Eh? |
| Wahh…! A curry keychain! | |
| Is it ok if I take this? | |
| Masumi | Of course. |
| I bought it for you. | |
| Izumi | Thank you! |
| At any rate, it’s really high quality, huh? | |
| Masumi | They were selling it at a wagon sale on Veludo Way. |
| Izumi | Oh, really! |
| You didn’t buy anything? | |
| Masumi | …I did, more or less. |
| Izumi | …Hm? |
| (It’s dark… and it looks kind of lumpy…) | |
| Ummmm… this is… | |
| Masumi | …An ohagi[1]. |
| Izumi | Ah, it’s an ohagi! |
| Masumi | Since I haven’t been able to buy a keychain for our gift exchange yet. |
| And they said it was a bargain. | |
| Izumi | (It’s a unique choice…) |
| But there might be someone who likes this kind of thing, right? | |
| Masumi | I got Director’s approval… I’m glad. |
| Kazunari | Next is Massu’s turn! |
| Go on, turn it, turn it~! | |
| Masumi | I’ll pull what Director put in. |
| Tsuzuru | No, Director didn’t put anything inside, you know? |
| *rolls* | |
| Masumi | … |
| *opens capsule* | |
| Kazunari | Massu, what’s inside? |
| Masumi | A crown keychain…? |
| Tsuzuru | It’s fairy tale-like. |
| Taichi | But it’s cute, right! |
| Kazunari | Wait a sec, isn’t that the “keychain that grants wishes” that’s been trending on instablam recently? |
| Masumi | …! |
| Omi | That’s a classic fad, huh? |
| Kazunari | When you have it, your love will be fulfilled, or you’ll pass your exams, or lots of other stuff like that! |
| Taichi | It’s so romantic…! |
| Masumi | A keychain that grants your wish… |
| Omi | Do you have a wish in mind, Masumi-kun? |
| Masumi | I only have one wish. |
| It’s to marry Director… | |
| Tsuzuru | He's unrelenting as always. |
