Previous	Event Story
Homare Thank you for coming! Kazunari Thank you, everyone! See you again! Sakuya Thank you so much! Muku Thank you so much~! *Shifts to Backstage* Izumi (Even until the closing night, they were able to convey a fun and wonderful performance of a circus troupe to the audiences. I’m so glad!) Tsumugi It’s a great closing night performance. Guy Yeah. A Mixed Play really has a different atmosphere compared to the usual Winter Troupe performance. Azuma It’s such a refreshing feel to look at something new. Hisoka …Arisu looks like his usual self. Tasuku The role has a similar feel to Arisugawa, but don’t you think he’s able to pull off being a leader better now. Tsumugi You’re right. Izumi Thank you for your help! Tsumugi After this, are we going to have an afterparty? Tasuku If you’re going to do it, I’ll help with the preparation. Izumi Ah, then– Homare Thank you, but I don’t need any help. Izumi Ah, Homare-san! Thank you for your hard work! Guy You’re not going to hold an afterparty? Homare Not that, the venue has already been arranged and prepared. *Shifts to Mansion’s Garden* Sakuya It’s really gorgeous. Muku It’s like a noble garden party in the mansion, it’s so nice! Tasuku The inner courtyard can accommodate everyone from the troupe, it’s really quite big. Homare Then, please drink and eat as much as you like today! Kazunari Let’s eat! Izumi I’m sorry for bringing in so many people. Homare’s Grandmother That immature grandson of mine always bothers me anyway, don’t mind it. Homare I guess I’m still immersed in the lingering excitement from the closing night, the sake smells pretty fragrant… A poetic inspiration swelled up inside me. Food—The buzzing chronicle~, scramble bloo bloo blooming~ Ariel Woof! Homare Wh, what is it, Ariel! Homare’s Grandmother It actually sounds like her favourite call. You too, why not read me a Haiku for once. Homare I like poems with freedom and no format though… Ahem… Akari kie (Having lost its light) Hana no kaori nokoru (the flower leaves behind its fragrance) Ita no ue (on top of everything else) …How’s that. Izumi It’s actually proper…! Sakuya That’s very wonderful! Hisoka …It’s somehow weird when you actually understand what Alice means. Homare What do you mean by that! Tasuku So you can actually create a proper one after all. Homare’s Grandmother Others who just finished their performance too, why not try making a phrase. Sakuya Eh!? Umm, a Haiku should be 575 right… Things like… Kankyaku no (The audience’s) egao hajiketa (smile bursting out) senshuraku. (on the closing night) I’m sorry, there’re extra syllables and the seasonal word is missing! Izumi It’s alright as long as long as it sounds like Sakuya-kun! Homare Yes. It’s such a bright phrase. Kazunari Hey hey, I’m next! Ame arare (The barrage of rain) Ka-ten ko-ru (during curtain call) Kimochi ii! (leaves behind a nice feeling!) Izumi You managed to include the seasonal word properly. Sakuya It’s rain, but it has such a bright feeling! Tasuku It’s not rainy season now though. Kazunari That’s the point! Homare How about Muku-kun. Muku Eh!? Me, me is it!? Eh, umm… Sa-kasu wa (In the Circus) Kyaku mo yakusha mo (the audience and the performers too) Egao ni naru ne (will be full of smiles) …? Izumi So cute! Kazunari Feels like Mukkun! Muku Ehehe! Tsuzuru It’s very interesting that you can see people’s character from their Haiku phrase. Misumi I also want to make one~! Sankaku no (Triangle) Kado wa mittsu de (has 3 corners) Sankaku da (that’s why it’s a triangle.) ~! Kazunari So triangular~! Tenma Well, he is THE Misumi. Tsuzuru He’s so steady. *Short Time Skip* Izumi It’s going to be pretty late, we should call it a day soon. Kazunari Right~ Eh? Where’s Aririn? Muku Ah, I haven’t seen him for a while. Takao Homare-sama said that he was feeling a bit drunk, so he left his seat earlier. I thought he was in the inner courtyard, should we search for him for you. Izumi If that’s the case, we’ll go and search for him. Sakuya If we’re going to call it a day, it won’t be right if the leader’s not here! *Shifts to Grandmother’s Study* Homare …Fuh. (I was feeling a bit drunk, but why did I come to such a place. I have to get back soon–) Hmm? The watch is moving! I thought it’s already broken… It’s a miracle! ??? Grandfather. Homare !? That… But, no way… Homare’s Grandfather Hmm? It’s you, Homare, what is it. Homare Grandmother said the tea is ready. Homare’s Grandfather Thank you. I’ll be there soon. Homare That pocket watch, is it broken again? Homare’s Grandfather Yeah. But it’s already repaired. Recently, the number of parts has decreased, it’s getting harder and harder to maintain it. My sight is getting worse too, this watch and me too, we’ve become old. It’s been 30 years huh… Homare …? Homare’s Grandfather That painting was drawn around the same time that I bought this watch. That painting, it’s an important memory of my time with grandmother. Homare What kind of memory is it? Homare’s Grandfather When you grow up, when you finally find your important things, give it a thought. Ariel –Woof! Homare !! It disappeared…? Just now it was— (Do I start daydreaming too when I’m drunk. The watch’s not moving… When did the dream start I wonder?) …As I thought, something that’s already broken cannot return to the past. Kazunari Aririn! Muku Arisu-san, so you’re here. Izumi You’re spacing out, what happened? Homare Nothing, something strange happened just now. I could see my grandfather and myself during my childhood. Izumi Eh!? Kazunari That’s great isn’t it! Muku Woah, that sounds like what happened to George! Sakuya Real magic! Homare I see… Then maybe, that’s the magic of this pocket watch. Muku It still holds such a mysterious power even though you’ve had it for so long! Sakuya Maybe it’s your grandfather’s ability! Izumi Umm… I guess Homare-san yourself has some magic in you. Kazunari Then, everything’s correct! I’m sure, the feelings of the various people contained in this pocket watch are being manifested through magic, don’t you think so? Homare Hmm… That will be such a powerful magic. From now on, let’s make a lot more memories. Together with this watch– Izumi You’re right. Kazunari I’m sure your grandfather will be happy too. Homare Then, let’s immediately make some memories right now! Izumi Eh!? Now!? Sakuya It’s already late!? Muku What do you want to do? Homare Grandfather and grandmother will paint on days like this so they won’t forget! Kazunari Then, it’s a drawing meet! Homare Yes! Sakuya D, drawing meet!? Muku Fufu, it sounds fun, a drawing meet! Izumi And I thought we’re going to end the day soon… Homare Then, let’s get the art supplies ready. Kazunari If we’re painting we have to prepare the tables too! Izumi …I don’t think I can stop them at this point. Homare’s Grandmother What kind of commotion is this? Izumi I’m sorry. Can you lend us the courtyard for a little bit longer? Homare’s Grandmother Well, I’m sure it’s because of something that child said right. There’s no other choice. Izumi Really sorry to bother you… Homare’s Grandmother …Sakae-san, I’m glad I gave that pocket watch to Homare. Izumi Eh? Homare’s Grandmother Nah, it’s nothing.
