Backstage Stories

Part 1Part 2

Yuki	I don't have any plans today, so I guess I'll go make some accessories...
	(Ah, but I have to think about that, too.)
	(Knock knock)
Yuki	Yeees.
Muku	Yuki-kun, can I come in?
Yuki	Go ahead.
Muku	You see, Kazu-kun and I just bought some delicious-looking chocolates, and I was wondering if you'd like some.
Yuki	I see. Then I guess I'll have some.
Muku	Oh, yay! We were talking about eating it while having tea in our room, so let's go together.
	There's some for Tenma-kun too, but...
Yuki	He's shooting a drama as well today.
Muku	I figured. Let's leave him some, then.
Kazunari	Welcome, Yukki!
Yuki	Thanks.
Muku	What about Kyu-chan and Misumi-san...
Kazunari	They weren't there. Seems like they went somewhere else.
Muku	I see. Then including Tenma-kun, we should leave some for 3 people.
Kazunari	Alrighty~ For the time being, let's eat with the three of us!
Muku	Yeah! Here you go, Yuki-kun.
Yuki	Thanks. Itadakimasu.
Muku	...Wow, this is so good!
Yuki	Yeah. Sweet and delicious.
Kazunari	Nomnom...this dark one isn't too sweet. I think Kumopi will like it!
Yuki	Let me see...ah, you're right.
Muku	All the flavors are delicious. It's a good thing you bought so many different kinds, Kazu-kun.
Kazunari	Yeah, and we should buy them again!
	...By the way, have you guys decided what to do for the keychain?
Muku	Ah...I haven't.
Yuki	Me too. I was just thinking that I need to start thinking about it.
Kazunari	Is that so? I actually haven't thought about it too.
Yuki	Anyway, it's fine to tell everyone to put on some kind of keychain since a lot of people have been dropping their dorm keys lately.
	But isn't it too much of a leap to make all the members exchange keychains?
Kazunari	Moreover, we're using an IRL gacha machine to make sure it's randomized!
Muku	Yeah, yeah! I was excited when I heard about it.
Yuki	I have no idea why that Elite Swindler would have such a machine in his possession.
Kazunari	But it's the kind of thing that you feel like Itaroon would have~ Let's think of it as a small event and have fun, Yukki!
Yuki	It's not like I'm particularly looking forward to it.
	But since I'll be getting one anyway, I definitely want a cute one.
Muku	Ahaha, that's just like Yuki-kun.
Yuki	...Well, I have to think about what I'm going to give first before what I'm going to get.
Kazunari	Right! I'm not sure whether I should buy it or make it myself~
Yuki	Ah, making it yourself is an option, too.
Muku	It's amazing that the both of you can make it on your own... I also have to do my best to find a good one!

Yuki	Hmm, I guess the materials I have aren't enough. I'll have to go shopping first.
Tasuku	......
Yuki	Ah. Tasuku, just the person I wanna see.
Tasuku	Hm? What's wrong?
Yuki	Are you free? I need to go shopping, so I'd like you to drive me.
Tasuku	Ah, I don't have anything today, so I don't mind.
Yuki	Yay. I'll be counting on you, then.
Tasuku	So, what do you want to buy?
Yuki	I need materials to make my keychain.
Tasuku	Do you mean for the one we're planning to exchange?
Yuki	Yeah, that. I thought it'd be fine if I make it myself.
Tasuku	Handmade, huh...as expected of you.
Yuki	Well, it's fun to make cute things by yourself. Anyway, have you thought about yours?
Tasuku	Mine? Mine, huh, let's see...
Yuki	That reaction tells me you haven't.
Tasuku	Well, there's still time. I'll be fine if I think about it from now on.
Yuki	Well, anything's fine. Or you can just choose something cute.
Tasuku	You know there's no guarantee that you'll be the one getting it, right?
Yuki	But it might.
Tasuku	It definitely won't if you start saying things like that. I can't even tell what's cute and what's not in the first place...
Yuki	I was lying, do I have to explain from there?
Tasuku	I didn't ask for one.
Yuki	Alright, I guess this is okay.
Tasuku	Let's go home, then.
Yuki	Yeah. ...Thanks for driving me. You're a great help.
Tasuku	I don't mind this much.
Yuki	(I've got all the materials, so let's go make it.)
	Okay, it's done.
	It's pretty cute.
	(I still have some materials left...maybe I'll make one for myself next time. I'll be matching with the person getting this, but I guess it's fine.)
Kumon	Isn't it Yuki's turn next?
Yuki	Yeah, yeah. I'll spin it, then.
	I'll make sure I get the cute one.
	Heh, it's pretty cute. I feel like I've seen this character somewhere though...
Kumon	Ah! This is the mascot of the drama that Tenma-san's in!
Chikage	Oh, that's right. It does look familiar.
Yuki	Ugh, that hack? ...Woah, you're right.
Tasuku	You wanted something cute, so isn't this good?
Yuki	Well, you're right about that.
	...The more I look at it, the more I see how cute this little ugly thing is. I've got no choice, I guess I'll put it on.
Muku	Fufu, you say stuff like that, but...
Kazunari	Yukki looks happy!
Yuki	...It's not like that. And besides, this mascot didn't do anything wrong.
