| Izumi | ...Citron-kun is late. |
| Tsuzuru | He said he’d come after us, but at this rate, we won’t be able to board. |
| Chikage | Ah, there he is. |
| Masumi | This way. |
| Citron | Sorry. I’m late. |
| Izumi | Citron-kun, is that a suit!? |
| Sakuya | You look great! |
| Chikage | You give off a different vibe than usual. |
| Itaru | These sudden super darling[1] vibes. |
| Izumi | But it really suits you! |
| Masumi | ...I’m gonna wear a suit too. |
| Tsuzuru | We don’t have time for that! |
| Izumi | Masumi-kun, you’re good as you are! |
| |
| Waiter | Your dessert: three types of gelato. |
| Izumi | ...Nn, it’s delicious! |
| Citron | I’m full. |
| Sakuya | The meal was full of courses I’ve never seen before. |
| Tsuzuru | As expected of a ticket from Yukishiro-san. It looks so expensive.... |
| Chikage | All the dishes were well-prepared. They would’ve been perfect with a bit more spice. |
| Itaru | You can’t expect that from French cuisine. |
| Citron | ...Masumi, I want to use my scroll now. |
| Masumi | .... |
| Izumi | What was your wish for Masumi-kun? |
| Masumi | “Citron’s Dream ~3, Citron Wants to Fall in Love Too” |
| Izumi | ??? |
| Tsuzuru | What is that? |
| Masumi | “Please let me and Director be alone together in a romantic situation.” |
| Sakuya | Th-that’s.... |
| Itaru | A high hurdle for Masumi. |
| Citron | It’s my last wish. |
| Masumi | .... |
| Izumi | You’ll make it come true, right, Masumi-kun? |
| Masumi | .... |
| Itaru | He stopped moving. |
| Chikage | He’s so conflicted. |
| Masumi | F.............ine. |
| Tsuzuru | That was a long pause! |
| Citron | Thank you! Masumi! |
| Masumi | I’ll give this to you just in case. |
 |
| Izumi | What’s this? |
| Masumi | A personal alarm. |
| Citron | You’re treating me like a criminal!? |
| |
| Izumi | .... |
| Citron | .... |
| Izumi | ...Have they left yet? |
| Citron | I can see Masumi’s clothes from the shadow of the pillar. |
| Izumi | So that’s the 50 meter mark from here. |
| Citron | Masumi is overly Carlos as usual. |
| Izumi | You mean cautious. |
| But why did you want to be alone with me? |
| Citron | I wanted to spend some time talking to you, Director. |
| Izumi | I see. |
| Citron | I’m sorry for not telling you the truth all this time. |
| Izumi | About being a prince, Citron-kun? |
| Citron | Yes. |
| Izumi | It’s fine. You had your reasons, right? |
| Citron | .... |
| Izumi | ...It’s been a while since you joined the troupe, Citron-kun. |
| Citron | It all went by in a flash. |
| Izumi | Your acting and language skills have improved so much since the debut performance. |
| Citron | It’s thanks to everyone. Back when we performed Romeo and Julius, I just had fun standing on stage with everyone. |
| But then, more and more, I started to think, “I want to get better, I want more lines.” |
| Though I had some mixed feelings about being the Queen of Hearts during our second performance. |
| Izumi | Because it’s not an act, but reality for you, Citron-kun. |
| Citron | ...During the third performance, I was reminded of Guy. |
| Izumi | S and Luke’s friendship? |
| Citron | That’s right... It’s difficult to become friends when your positions are so different. |
| Izumi | (I wonder if Citron-kun sees Guy-san as a friend rather than a servant. Maybe that’s how he wants to see him....) |
| Let’s do a rerun of every show up till now for your graduation performance, Citron-kun. Let’s have Guy-san watch your acting. |
| Citron | Fufu, you’re so kind, Director. |
| Izumi | I’m sure your feelings will come across to Guy-san if he watches your third performance, Citron-kun. |
| Citron | Guy is useless, so he won’t understand what I’m thinking. He didn’t come today, either. |
| Izumi | (He told us to enjoy our meal privately with just Spring Troupe... I wonder if Guy-san thinks he’ll get in the way.) |
| (Even though Citron-kun doesn’t think so at all....) |
| How long have you known Guy-san? |
| Citron | We were always together ever since I was little. I spent more time with him than my own parents. |
| He’s always been that nagging and useless, so I would turn his switch off and run away all the time. |
| Izumi | (That kind of sounds like Sakyo-san and Azami-kun.) |
| Guy-san might have nagged so much because he wanted you to become a fine king, Citron-kun. |
| Citron | ...But I didn’t pick him up for a reason like that. |
| Izumi | Pick him up...? |
| Citron | It’s nothing. Guy is really dedicated to his job, so he taught me the art of kingcraft through and through. |
| The date of the coronation ceremony was determined when I was young, so I intended to complete my preparations before then. |
| Izumi | (To have it decided from a young age that you’d be a prince.... He really lives in a different world.) |
| Citron | But before that, I wanted to make my dream of visiting countries all over the world come true, no matter what. |
| I could act freely until the coronation ceremony... I decided that was my time limit, and spent years coming up with a plan to travel around the world. |
| But in the end, all sort of things happened, and I ended up fleeing my country without a word, even to Guy.... |
| Izumi | (Citron-kun is making a difficult expression... Did something happen in his country?) |
| Citron | I really wanted to tour the entire world after starting with this beloved country. |
| But those plans went up in smoke. Because I met MANKAI Company.... |
| Izumi | I see.... |
| Citron | I couldn’t travel around the world, but this was still the greatest journey. I was able to visit the worlds of many many stories—as an actor, and as an audience member. |
| I made lot of friends, too. It was truly, truly so much fun. |
| ...My journey comes to a finish here. |
| Izumi | ——. |
| Citron | Director, don’t forget me. |
| Izumi | Of course I won’t forget. |
| Let’s keep making lots and lots of unforgettable memories until you return to your country. |
| Citron | ...Yes. |
| Director, I want you to have this. |
 |
| Izumi | ? |
| A charm...? |
| (It looks pretty old. It’s worn out...) |
| Isn’t this something important to you? |
| Citron | That’s exactly why I want you to have it, Director. |
| So that Director... so that Guy can smile, lots and lots. |
| Izumi | Eh? |
| (Guy-san...?) |
| Citron | It’s nothing. When I’m gone, I want you to imagine that as me, and think of me fondly. |
| Izumi | ...I will. |
| Masumi | It’s been ten minutes. |
| Tsuzuru | Wait up! Masumi! |
| Sakuya | It’s too soon! |
| Masumi | Ten minutes is plenty of time. The kanji are the same[2]. |
| Tsuzuru | What a far-fetched argument...! |
| Chikage | Clever one. |
| Itaru | ^ Agreed. |
| Tsuzuru | Can both of you stop being so carefree and stop him instead! |
| Izumi | Masumi-kun...!? |
| Citron | It’s my time limit. |
| Izumi | (Citron-kun... He looked so sad for a moment there. We should still have some time; it’s bothering me....) |
| Masumi | —You’re too close. |
| Citron | Oh~. |
| Izumi | H-hey, Masumi-kun! |
| Citron | Masumi, your interruption techniques are sure sharp! |
| Tsuzuru | What are you going to do if you push him into the ocean? That’s dangerous. |
| Masumi | Hmph. |
| Citron | ...Chikage. |
| Chikage | Hm? |
| Citron | ...The wish. I’d like you to grant it tomorrow. |
| Chikage | ...That’s pretty sudden. |
| Citron | Please. |
| Chikage | Got it. |
