| Izumi | Congratulations again on passing your audition, Azami-kun! |
| Banri | Congrats. |
| Omi | Congratulations. |
| Juza | Well done. |
| Taichi | Congratulations! |
| Sakoda | Good job! I’ll be your first fan, Azami! |
| Azami | Aren’t you shithead Sakyo’s first fan, Ken-san? Who are you gonna root for more, me or him? |
| Sakoda | Eeh!? |
| Sakyo | He’s obviously gonna root for me, his aniki. |
| Sakoda | Of course! |
| Azami | I see. So it’s not me. |
| Sakoda | Th-that’s not true! |
| Sakyo | Oi. |
| Sakoda | !! |
| Azami | Hey. |
| Sakoda | Awawawa...! |
| Citron | Somebody’s sure popular! |
| Chikage | A yakuza harem, huh? |
| Itaru | Now that’s a harem I can’t envy at all. What a rarity. |
| Izumi | Azami-kun, we’ll need parental permission if you’re going to officially join the troupe. |
| Azami | Eh.... |
| Sakoda | Nah, if he finds out, he’s definitely gonna drag Azami back home. |
| Izumi | But we can’t let him join without permission.... |
| Azami | .... |
| Sakyo | I’m pretty much his guardian. |
| Azami | ——. |
| Sakoda | True, you’re his caretaker, after all. |
| Sakyo | I’ll be responsible for him. |
| Izumi | ...Is that so? Well, if you say so, Sakyo-san.... |
| |
| Tasuku | Izumida, you like soccer, right? |
| Azami | Eh? Well, yeah.... |
| Tasuku | You should join the soccer club. We’re recruiting new members. |
| Azami | Ah... I’ll consider it. |
| Homare | Rather than that, how about you enjoy some poetry? The literature club is also looking for new members! |
| Tasuku | It’s just you. You can’t hold club activities like that. |
| Homare | Tsuzuru-kun is part of it too. Though he absolutely refuses to attend the poetry-reading sessions.... |
| Azami | I think I’ll pass. |
| Homare | Muh. Why doesn’t anyone understand the wonder of poetry? |
| Kazunari | Congrats, Azamin~! I’m looking forward to your makeup. |
| Azami | Thanks. |
| Azuma | I heard you were a huge help during Summer Troupe’s performance. Yuki said that his skin has been doing well ever since he started using the oil you recommended. |
| Azami | Ah, yeah, when there’s a performance running, your skin gets rough from all the makeup, so you should use an oil that’s thick and moisturizing.... |
| Azuma | I see. What about for daily use? |
| Azami | Azuma-san, judging from your skin type, I’d go with this one or this one? This one is good value for money, and it’s really moisturizing. It also spreads well, so it’s easy to use. |
| Azuma | I see. I’ll try it out next time. |
| Izumi | (What a serious review....) |
| Azami | Also, this one’s good to use once in a while. If you use it before you go to bed, you can really tell the difference the next morning. |
| Azuma | Ah, this brand. It was on my radar for a while. |
| Kazunari | Amazing, Azamin, you’re like a pro~! |
| Izumi | Azami-kun, do you try out all sorts of products? |
| Azami | Well, I can’t tell unless I try them myself. I put up reviews on “#cosme,” too. |
| Yuki | No way. You’re a reviewer on “#cosme”? |
| Azuma | I use that site all the time. |
| Yuki | Me too. It has quality reviews. |
| Azami | Thanks. |
| Izumi | (He’s even more professional than I thought....) |
| Kazunari | Wait, so do you test makeup on your own face, Azamin? |
| Azami | Yeah. I can’t get a model, so. |
| Izumi | Huh. What does it look like when you put on makeup, Azami-kun? |
| Yuki | I want to see makeup that’s not for the stage. |
| Azuma | I’m interested too. |
| Azami | ...No. |
| Izumi | Eeh~? Why not? |
| Azami | I’ll do Director’s face next time I’m testing out my new makeup kit. How’s that? |
| Izumi | Really!? I’m looking forward to it. |
| Azami | Most of it is still new to me, so it might not be too good, but. |
| Izumi | Did you buy a whole new kit? |
| Azami | ...Because he destroyed it. |
| Izumi | Eh? |
| Azami | It’s nothing. |
| Anyway, I want to get as much practice as I can, so if you want me to do your makeup, just let me know. |
| Azuma | Then I guess I’ll ask you to do mine next time. |
| Yuki | Me too. |
| Kazunari | Ah! I might have an opportunity for you to get tons of practice! |
| Azami | Huh? |
| Kazunari | I’m gonna need to check, so it’s a secret for now! |
| |
| Azami | .... |
| Sakyo | .... |
| Azami | What. You still have something to say? |
| Sakyo | ...No. You did pass the audition, after all. |
| ...When will you tell the chairman? |
| Azami | It’s a pain, so I’ll drop a word eventually. |
| Sakyo | Sigh... You know he’s going to be surprised if you tell him you’re joining an acting troupe out of nowhere. Tell him soon. |
| Azami | Look, you’re the last person I want to hear that from! |
| Sakyo | ——. |
| Azami | Don’t talk to me outside of practice. |
| Sakyo | ...Tch. |
| |
| Sakyo | .... |
| |
| Azami | “Hey, Sakyo! I’ll tell you what my dream is... it’s a secret, okay?” |
| “Promise me you definitely won’t tell anyone. Okay?” |
| |
| Sakyo | .... |
