TsuzuruFor me?
IzumiIt's a fanletter.
CitronOhh! From a girl, right? Tsuzuru, nice!
Tsuzuru......
IzumiPlease read it.
TsuzuruAh, sure......
......
――.
Izumi(I wonder if Tsuzuru-kun knows who the sender is.)
CitronTsuzuru, your face is busy being both smiley and teary! There must be a beautiful girl's photo and contact details written there.
TsuzuruYou're wrong!
IzumiAlso, there was this with the letter ――.
TsuzuruA bouquet of dandelions......?
CitronOhh! A young girl, hm! Flan and withers of no edges![1]
IzumiCould you mean, men and women of all ages?
TsuzuruI told you you're wrong.
Director, did you meet with the sender?
IzumiYes. I suggested they meet with you directly, but they said they couldn't because they were ashamed.
I suggested they at least send a letter.
TsuzuruI see......
IzumiDid their feelings reach you?
Tsuzuru......They did.
Even if you're apart......huh.
After receiving a letter with such heart in it, I'll have to answer with the script.
IzumiYeah.
CitronWork hard, Tsuzuru!
TsuzuruSorry for being late. I can finally feel something take shape.
IzumiIt's okay. The troupe I was in often still wouldn't have the script ready three days before the opening performance.
TsuzuruEhh?
IzumiYou're always a model worker, so it's fine to have this happen once in a while. Don't worry about not being in good condition.
CitronTsuzuru, we're all waiting patiently!
TsuzuruThanks.
IzumiWith that said, it's important to keep to deadlines as professional. Write an ending that both you and everyone else accept as worth the delay.
TsuzuruYes!
Izumi(Tsuzuru-kun's eyes are flooded with motivation. It kind of reminds me of when he was writing Romeo and Julius......)
......I'm really glad that I decided to believe in you right back at the start, when I asked you to write the script for Romeo and Julius without any prior experience.
Now, so many fans are keenly awaiting Tsuzuru-kun's scripts like this.
It's a great privilege that we're able to read your new scripts first.
TsuzuruI'll definitely respond to their expectations. And I'll work hard as the leader this time.
IzumiYes! If it's you, you'll definitely be able to make something great.
TsuzuruYeah.
MasumiIt's a full house.
SakuyaExciting, isn't it!
ItaruThis makes the Spring Troupe's third play. I might feel a bit more comfortable than usual.
CitronI'm looking forwards to it!
Tsuzuru......I'm as nervous as I was during the first play.
SakuyaEhh!? Are you alright!?
CitronAt times like these, take cheap breads!
TsuzuruEh?
ItaruDeep breaths, I think......
TsuzuruI see!?
SakuyaIt'll be fine, Tsuzuru-kun! Your script is awesome to the very end!
I'm getting impatient wanting to hurry up and show the audience!
TsuzuruSakuya......thanks for the direct praise.
ItaruYou can do things as you like.
TsuzuruYeah.
MasumiYou think too much.
Tsuzuru......Maybe.
......Alright. Let's go, everyone!
Izumi......
(Thick smoke rises from a small workshop in a back alley. Coughing violently, the alchemist Luke mutters, It's ready......)
(The moment he calls the name 'S', the young man before him opens his eyes......)
Luke"I've finally done it......You're my first friend, S."
S"Friend? Master? You're my friend, Master?"
Luke"That's right, S. Let's shake hands. This is a human greeting."
"We put our hands together like this."
S"Hands, together......"
Luke"Are you left-handed, S?"
S"Right......"
Luke"Well, if it's your left hand, the left is fine."
S"Left."
Luke"No, if you don't put out the same hand you won't make a handshake."
S"......"
Luke"You don't have to put out both hands."
Audience APfft.
Audience BHehe.
Izumi(The dialogue between Luke and S, who can't put out his hand properly for a handshake. Thanks to their manzai practice, the tempo's improved a lot from when they first started.)
Luke"Let's both put out just our right hands."
S"Right."
Luke"Yes, this is a handshake."
Izumi(S is stronger than a human and breaks everything he touches. Luke patiently teaches him how to live.)
Colt"Hello, Sir! Huh? Did you get a new student?"
Luke"Hey, Colt. This is S. He's my friend."
Colt"Ehh!? You've got friends when it's normal for you to hole yourself up and not talk to anyone for a month!?"
Luke"How rude. Even I have at least one friend."
S"Friend."
Colt"Hello, S. I'm Colt! Nice to meet you!"
S"Yes."
Colt"Owowowow! My hand's going to break!!"
S"Handshake."
Luke"That's too much power, S."
