{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=... A teach-in-trainin'.}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=...}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=(Pretty sure one came to my high school? ... I don't got memories of interactin' with 'em, so I dunno.)}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=(In the first place, no one 'round me was aimin' to be a teacher, so I dunno what one would even act like...)}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=''*Sigh*''...}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=(If we're talking this kind of performance, then I guess it would be that person to ask?)}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=... I'll try contactin' him.}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue="Are you free this evening?" and send...}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Welp, got that appointment done.}}
{{Line|<br />}}
{{Line|character=Tsumugi|border=tsumugi|dialogue=Hmm, a teacher-in-training...}}
{{Line|character=Tsumugi|border=tsumugi|dialogue=How about something like... actually trying to teach someone something? For starters, you could look after the student group's studies.}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Tsumugi-san and Chikage-san, and some~times Itaru-san, look after them, right. Even without me, you guys seem fine.}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Plus, just teachin' someone something and the sense of teachin' someone as a teacher would be different, I'm pretty sure...}}
{{Line|character=Tsumugi|border=tsumugi|dialogue=Hmm, that's true.}}
{{Line|character=Tsumugi|border=tsumugi|dialogue=Ah, if you really want to try teaching someone... Just a second.}}
{{Line|character=Tsumugi|border=tsumugi|dialogue=Right, what about something like this? Do you want me to check if there are any restrictions?}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=... Seriously?}}
{{Line|<br />}}
{{Line|character=Izumi|border=izumi|dialogue=Banri-kun as a short-term home tutor!?}}
{{Line|character=Taichi|border=taichi|dialogue=Ban-chan as a tutor!?}}
{{Line|character=Kumon|border=kumon|dialogue=Whaa!?}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Y'all are too shocked!}}
{{Line|character=Yuki|border=yuki|dialogue=Not being shocked would be more surprising.}}
{{Line|character=Izumi|border=izumi|dialogue=Why a home tutor...?}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=A little while ago, I discussed how to get into my role with Tsumugi-san.}}
{{Line|character=Tsumugi|border=tsumugi|dialogue=So, when I was meeting with the business that helps me with my tutoring work, they just happened to be recruiting for a short-term, intensive 1-month long home tutor, so I introduced Banri-kun to them.}}
{{Line|character=Tsumugi|border=tsumugi|dialogue=The child he's supposed to teach is a boy who's a 1st-year in middle school, so his studies shouldn't be too complicated, and it's perfect for the timing of creating Banri-kun's role.}}
{{Line|character=Izumi|border=izumi|dialogue=I see, if he's a 1st-year in middle school, then Banri-kun should be fine.}}
{{Line|character=Kazunari|border=kazunari|dialogue=What's the kiddo you're supposed to teach like?}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Right after he started school, it seems like he began skipping out, but lately, he's started goin' to school again.}}
{{Line|character=Tsumugi|border=tsumugi|dialogue=He's supposed to be a rather smart child, but because of his extended absence, it seems like he's not able to keep up with his studies anymore...}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=So, I'm basically gonna be helpin' him with his homework and test prep durin' the short-term intensive tutoring period.}}
{{Line|character=Yuki|border=yuki|dialogue=... Are you going to be able to get rid of how you stink of delinquent? Aren't you just going to scare him?}}
{{Line|character=Kumon|border=kumon|dialogue=If the kid is bad at remembering things, Banri seems like he would beat it into him by brute force—!}}
{{Line|character=Taichi|border=taichi|dialogue=No, he might be taken with Ban-chan's surprising leaderliness and be like "Big Bro, I'll follow you forever!!" or something!}}
{{Line|character=Yuki|border=yuki|dialogue=That would be because he's a delinquent.}}
{{Line|character=Izumi|border=izumi|dialogue=Banri-kun... You'll watch your language so that you don't scare that boy, right?}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Hey, I can do that kinda thing in a snap!}}
{{Line|character=Kazunari|border=kazunari|dialogue=I don't think that you have to be that careful! Settsuar, even at uni you've got amaze communication skills, so I'm sure you'll be okaysies!}}
{{Line|character=Tsumugi|border=tsumugi|dialogue=Mm, I think so, too. Banri-kun, if there's anything that you're troubled about, feel free to come and ask me about it.}}
{{Line|character=Taichi|border=taichi|dialogue=Ban-chan, I'm cheering for you!!}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Yeah, yeah.}}
{{Line|<br />}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=It's a pleasure to meet you. I'll be the person in charge of teaching Takashi-kun; my name is Banri Settsu. Though it may be just for a short while, I'm looking forward to working with you.}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=(They told me to come dressed in my suit for the play, so I put it on, but don't I fit the part pretty good?)}}
{{Line|character=Mother|border=other|dialogue=It's a pleasure to meet you, too; I'm Takashi's mother. I'll be leaving my son in your care from today on. Come on, you greet him too, Takashi.}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=It's nice to meet you, Takashi-kun. Let's do our best together.}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=...}}
{{Line|character=Mother|border=other|dialogue=Goodness, Takashi... I'm so sorry, Sensei, this one's shy in front of people he doesn't know.}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=It's fine.}}
{{Line|character=Mother|border=other|dialogue=Because this is the first session, I'll be here as well, but usually at this time, I'm out of the house. Will you two be fine alone from now on?}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Yes, it's no problem. During that time, I'll watch over Takashi-kun.}}
{{Line|character=Mother|border=other|dialogue=I'm so glad that you said that. Well then, when time is up, I'll speak to you again. Takashi, do your best.}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=...}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Looking forward to working with you.}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Well, let's start with working on your homework.}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=...}}
{{Line|<br />}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=...}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Takashi-kun, is there anywhere you don't understand?}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=...}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Ah, this part is wrong. This is an application of a previous problem, so try using this formula and solving it.}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=...}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Aha. This time you got it right.}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=...}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=(Hmm... He ain't resistin' to studyin', and if you point out a mistake, he just corrects himself... He just doesn't wanna respond, huh...)}}
{{Line|<br />}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Oh, it's already this late. This problem will probably be the last.}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=...}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=From now on, I'll be coming to teach you for a while, so if there are things you don't understand, could you compile them before our next session?}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=... You're obviously not a teacher, just a supervisor.}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=!!}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=(This is gonna be a harder battle than I thought...)}}

{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=(I've come 'ere 3 times, and I've tried out a buncha approaches that Tsumugi-san taught me, but the distance between us hasn't shrunk at all. As usual, he doesn't listen to a thing I say...)}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=(Thought I'd have a kinda hard time, but I didn't think it'd be this bad. ... Are those communication skills Kazunari praised me for seriously ineffective on a middle schooler?)}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=...}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=...}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=(He doesn't ask questions, so ain't I just watchin' him do his homework? At this rate, it'll be like Takashi said, and I'll end up bein' just his supervisor...)}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Hm...?}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=(That thing on top of his desk, is that... Did I just find somethin' to talk about?)}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=(Meh, he's just gonna ignore me.)}}
{{Line|<br />}}
{{Line|character=Itaru|border=itaru|dialogue=... So, how's tutoring?}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=... Ugh.}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=He's more unsociable than I thought, so... I'm havin' a real hard time. He ignores everythin' I say.}}
{{Line|character=Itaru|border=itaru|dialogue=Lol, Banri having a hard time is Schadenfreude tbh.<ref>Itaru says メシウマ (meshiuma) which is slang for enjoying other people's suffering. It could technically be translated to the German "Schadenfraude" or the English "epicaricacy" but I decided to use Schadenfraude because it matches with how the same slang was translated (also said by Itaru) in the main story over here [https://yaycupcake.com/a3/index.php?title=Act_5/Episode_27]</ref>}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Tch... Damn it, stop makin' fun of me.}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=... That reminds me, you tutored too, didn't you, Itaru-san?}}
{{Line|character=Itaru|border=itaru|dialogue=IG.}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=... How did you teach your students?}}
{{Line|character=Itaru|border=itaru|dialogue=Ahh... Public persona full throttle was my default.}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Just as expected.}}
{{Line|character=Itaru|border=itaru|dialogue=That way's easier, you know?}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=It's true that I'm usin' my public persona too, though.}}
{{Line|character=Itaru|border=itaru|dialogue=See?}}
{{Line|character=Itaru|border=itaru|dialogue=Well, there was this one time I got a high school boy who was in his rebellious phase. That kid, all he did was game even during the time I was supposed to be tutoring him.}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=That sounds like a hassle in its own right. How'd you get him to study?}}
{{Line|character=Itaru|border=itaru|dialogue=I said, "If I win in this game, will you come over to your desk?" and challenged him to a showdown with a 100% power refreshing smile.}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=What's up with that... Didn't you just con him?}}
{{Line|character=Itaru|border=itaru|dialogue=It was a fighting game that I'd played before, so first of all, I pretended to be a total beginner and gave him a handicap that way, see?}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=''You'' gave him a handicap...!?}}
{{Line|character=Itaru|border=itaru|dialogue=Just for Round 1. I purposefully took the hard L... And then after that, for the next two rounds, I beat him down without taking a single hit.}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Jeez... You're so childish.}}
{{Line|character=Itaru|border=itaru|dialogue=I don't wanna lose in a game, so I ended up getting serious. The smug face he made when I lost Round 1 pissed me off, too.}}
{{Line|character=Itaru|border=itaru|dialogue=But you know, I thought to myself, "Did I really piss him off?" And then...}}
{{Line|character=Itaru|border=itaru|dialogue=He said, "Sensei, your game sense is crazy!" and instead, he ended up getting really attached to me.}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=That's some fast turnaround.}}
{{Line|character=Itaru|border=itaru|dialogue=After that, I guess he started to respect me, and he started to do his homework when he would get it.}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=That's definitely some kinda cheat trick...}}
{{Line|character=Itaru|border=itaru|dialogue=Well, why not try communicating outside of studying like I did with that boy?}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Communication outside of studyin', huh...}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=—Ah.}}
{{Line|<br />}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=... Who is it.}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=It's Settsu.}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=...}}
{{Line|dialogue=''*door opens*''}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=!!}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue='Sup.}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=Sensei, that outfit...}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Ah, this? If I wore my usual suit, it'd be pretty weird. Today I'm wearin' my casual clothes.}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=Huh...?}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=C'mon, put on your shoes. Today, we're havin' an extracurricular lession—but keep it a secret from your mom.}}

{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Takashi, sit over here.}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=Huh... Hold on!}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Let's see... Think I'll use this character. Hurry up and pick.}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=What? Ah... A—Alright...}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Ooh! Usin' that one, huh. I ain't losin' now.}}
{{Line|<br />}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=Gooo...!}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Heh... Nice moves.}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=(I knew it, Takashi's played this game a lot.)}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=(... But I've played it more.)}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Use this combo... Yep, K.O. Got my 16th win in a row.}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=Noo!!}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue='K. Let's take a breather soon.}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=... Yeah.}}
{{Line|<br />}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Is cola okay?}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=... Thank you.}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Ya know, you're pretty strong, Takashi. Your throw tech is so good that I started sweatin' there.}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=But, you won every match, Sensei. I couldn't even win a single round...}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=That's just the difference in our experience.}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=I'm not used to this arcade stick, so if I had been using a controller, I think I could have hit cleaner lines...}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=You looked like you've played the fightin' game we were playin' a lot, but your room doesn't have a console, right?}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=Yeah...}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=You see, when I started middle school, I couldn't make any friends, and I ended up skipping school for a while.}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Sorry kiddo, but I heard about that before I took the job.}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=... So yeah. During that time, all I did was play games inside the house.}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=My mom and dad got worried over that, so they hid all of my consoles somewhere... That's why my room only has a TV in it.}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=So that's what happened...}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=(There was a keyholder of that game we just played in the corner of his study desk, so I thought it was weird that he didn't have any consoles...)}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=Both of them said that if I only play games, it wouldn't be good for me. They said that if I don't study, I won't be a successful adult in the future...}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Well, to stop 'em from findin' out, why not go to a game center rather than playin' at home?}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=But if my mom finds out...!}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=If it happens, I'll help get you permission to keep comin' to the arcade. I'll also bring along an OP support.}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=A support...?}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=This person that I know well, he's an even more extreme gamer than I am, but he's also an adult who has higher education, good income, and an OP public persona.}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=Wha... There's someone out there like that!?}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Well, yeah. He's out there.}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=He grew up on a theory that the important things in life could basically be learned through games, but even as the game addict he is, he's still responsible from a societal standpoint.}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Tbh, just his public persona and his society specs are good. Once he gets in the dorms, he turns into a insanely lazyass cheat character, though...}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=Cheat...}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=If I bring 'im along, and he says how he was raised, then your mom can't complain, right?}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=... Yeah.}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=All in all, if ya don't want complaints about bein' a gamer, you've got no option but to skill up the rest of yourself so that they can't complain.}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=...}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=... So, what're you gonna do?}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=Just like that person you talked about... I want to work hard so that no one will complain even if I play games a lot...!}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Nice one.}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Welp, when we get back, first thing's test prep.}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=... Okay.}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Before we go, wanna fight one more time?}}
{{Line|character=Takashi|border=other|dialogue=Yeah! Banri-san, tell me how to do the combo you did before!}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Haha. Guess I got no choice.}}
{{Line|<br />}}
{{Line|character=Tsumugi|border=tsumugi|dialogue=Good work. How was your short-term intensive work?}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=By teachin' someone somethin', it becomes somethin' that can be used by that person... That's the kind of thing that makes it feel worth doin'?}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=I kinda feel like I understand that now.}}
{{Line|character=Tsumugi|border=tsumugi|dialogue=Really? Even if you only "kind of understand," that's still good. How was he after that?}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Even after the tutoring period ended, I still sometimes LIME Takashi.}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=He made a friend in his class that likes fightin' games, so he's havin' fun at school now.}}
{{Line|character=Tsumugi|border=tsumugi|dialogue=That's a relief.}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Yeah.}}
{{Line|character=Tsumugi|border=tsumugi|dialogue=You were having problems with communicating with him at first, but... How did you become so close after that?}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Ahh...}}
{{Line|character=Itaru|border=itaru|dialogue=Ah, damn it! ... I'm gonna shit on this guy.}}
{{Line|character=Itaru|border=itaru|dialogue=''*Sigh*''... Banri~ after this is done, join my party—.}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=Yeah, yeah.}}
{{Line|character=Itaru|border=itaru|dialogue=ASAP, thanks~.}}
{{Line|character=Itaru|border=itaru|dialogue=Tch... The healer's dead as a doornail.}}
{{Line|character=Banri|border=banri|dialogue=... In some cases, even a useless adult can be a good example.}}
{{Line|character=Tsumugi|border=tsumugi|dialogue=Haha. I think I understand.}}
