Sakuya | Thank you for the food... |
Tsuzuru | I'm full. |
Manager | Eh!? Are you all done eating? But you didn't eat much. |
Citron | I'm full too. |
Itaru | Thanks for the food. |
Masumi | I'm going back to my room. |
Manager | Eh? Eh? Really? But today's menu is Director's golden curry, you know. I'm going to eat it all, you know—!? |
| ...I wonder what's wrong with everyone. |
Izumi | It seems Yuzo-san's words worked well. |
Manager | Ah! So Yuzo-san came, huh. |
Izumi | Thank you for contacting him. |
Manager | No problem. But more importantly, is everyone alright? I'm worried that they'd leave this theater due to distress... |
Izumi | They won't do such a thing! |
Manager | I, I know, right—. |
Izumi | (The way Yuzo-san points out their mistakes may be harsh, but it's accurate. Everyone should get more motivated after this.) |
| (They may be depressed now, but I'm sure they'll move forward. I have to totally support and believe in them.) |
| |
Sakuya | ... |
Tsuzuru | Sakuya? |
Sakuya | Ah, Tsuzuru-kun... |
Tsuzuru | Where are you going, bringing that pillow and futon? |
Sakuya | ...Yuzo-san's words keep ringing in my head, so I can't sleep. |
Tsuzuru | So you too, huh. |
Sakuya | I used to think that I'd be happy and satisfied as long as I could stand on stage, but I didn't think about our performance at all. I can't go on like this. |
Tsuzuru | You're not going to qu——. |
Sakuya | That's why I'm going to sleep onstage so that I could understand it even a little bit better. |
Tsuzuru | Hah!? |
Sakuya | My head is spinning and I don't know what to do. And I can't just sleep in my room. |
Tsuzuru | But you don't have to sleep onstage. |
Citron | I'll accompany you—. |
Tsuzuru | You too, Citron-san!? |
Citron | I've done preparing. |
Tsuzuru | Are you two going to the theater this late at night holding that futon!? |
Sakuya | I know that it sounds stupid, but I think I'd come up with something... |
Tsuzuru | Ah, fine, it can't be helped! |
Sakuya | Tsuzuru-kun? |
Tsuzuru | I'll join you. Wait here, let me bring my futon. |
| And Masumi and Itaru-san should get involved in this too. |
Sakuya | Are they still awake? |
Tsuzuru | Masumi is still awake. And you don't even need to wonder about Itaru-san, he's probably playing games right now. |
| |
Masumi | Why do I have to sleep here too? |
Tsuzuru | You come all the way here, so don't complain. |
Sakuya | I'm sorry, Itaru-san. You even have to join us. |
Itaru | I don't care where I sleep as long as I can play games. |
Citron | We're like on a training camp; It's so fun. |
Sakuya | Are there training camps in your country too, Citron-san? |
Citron | Of course. We build a camp and have someone keep all night vigil so that we won't be found by enemies. |
Sakuya | Enemies? |
Citron | We usually sleep while listening to the sound of bullets. |
Tsuzuru | That sounds wrong, somehow! |
Masumi | Shut up. |
Citron | Oh, sorry. Good night. |
Tsuzuru | Good night. |
| |
Sakuya | ... |
Masumi | ... |
Tsuzuru | ... |
Itaru | ... |
Sakuya | ...Uhh, are you still awake, guys? |
Tsuzuru | ...I am. |
Sakuya | What do you think of Yuzo-san's words today? |
Tsuzuru | It pissed me off. Why is he acting like he knows everything? |
Masumi | He's annoying. |
Itaru | Honestly, I thought that was harsh. |
Citron | It's like the pleasant feeling of being whipped—. |
Tsuzuru | Are you a pervert!? |
Sakuya | Yeah, I thought he was cruel at first, but the more I think about it, I feel his words are like the whip of love. |
| Besides, Director has looked troubled whenever she watched our recent practices. |
Masumi | Yeah, around the time when we started the actual practice. |
Sakuya | You noticed it too, Masumi-kun. |
Masumi | I'm the one who knows her best. |
Sakuya | You're the one who watches her the most! |
Tsuzuru | It means that Director is not satisfied with our performance. |
Sakuya | Maybe. I think she tried to bring us to our senses. |
Citron | It's just like being whipped out of love—. It feels good—. |
Tsuzuru | Don't make it sound perverted! |
File:Act 1 Ch 14.png |
Tsuzuru | But well, you have a point. We can't do anything even if we oppose the audience's opinion. We should use that to grow instead. |
Sakuya | That's right. I want to know more about performing. I want to get better and better at acting. |
Tsuzuru | Me too. I want to show that Yuzo-san up. |
Citron | That's the spirit! I'll work hard too. |
Sakuya | Let's all work hard! |
Itaru | ... |
Sakuya | What's wrong, Itaru-san? |
Itaru | Nothing——I just think we're going to be late tomorrow if we don't sleep now. |
Sakuya | Ah, you're right. Sorry. Alright then, good night! |
Tsuzuru | Night. |
Citron | Good night. |
Itaru | ... |
| |
Izumi | (Eh? Sakuya-kun's room's door is open...) |
| Are you asleep? I'm going to close the door, okay? |
| ...Eh!? They're not here!? |
| (Could it be that they were really shocked by Yuzo-san's words that they decided to quit...) |
| (I should go look for them for now.) |
| |
Izumi | Sakuya-kun, Citron-san, are you here? |
Sakuya | ...zzz. |
Masumi | ...zzz. |
Tsuzuru | ...zzz. |
Itaru | ...zzz. |
Citron | ...zzz. |
Izumi | !? |
| E-Everyone is sleeping...? But why here...? |
Sakuya | ...zzzz, Director, I'll do my best... |
Izumi | I don't really get it, but it looked like they came up with something. They didn't run away from the stage, but they faced it instead. |
| Good night, everyone. Let's work hard tomorrow too. |
