| Itaru | Phew... Guess this is gonna it. Ah~ my shoulders are so stiff. |
| (Having Senpai look at it should make it a guaranteed thing... Though the idea kinda annoys me.) |
| Se~npa~i——. |
| ... |
| ... Well, of course he isn't here. |
| |
| (Oh, there he is——) |
| Chikage | ... If we remove this part, I think I'd be able to take this off more easily. |
| Yuki | Putting a fastener here, huh... It would stand out a bit. In that case, we can put magic tape on this side and——. |
| Itaru | (... He's making quite the serious face. How unusual.) |
| Chikage | ... Guess this will be it. |
| Yuki | For now, I'll make a test version of it. |
| Chikage | I'm counting on you. |
| ——So, Chigasaki, do you need something? |
| Itaru | You noticed me, huh. I finished making the draft for the presentation, so I was thinking I should have you look at it. |
| Chikage | ... |
| Itaru | How is it? |
| Chikage | You put way too much effort into this. To think that you would be the type that makes such a hot-blooded presentation. |
| Itaru | ... During the plays for KniRoun, I was helped by everyone. I guess you can say these are my feelings of gratitude for that. |
| Chikage | Heh. I think your feelings were made pretty clear by that blog, though?[1] |
| Itaru | Wha. Everyone else didn't look at it at all... This is why you're an unromantic senpai. |
| Chikage | Well, I understand where the reason for your enthusiasm comes from, but as documents for a presentation, it's a bit much. |
| These flickers of your love that are shown here will probably come across better written in a letter rather than a document. |
| Itaru | Just like that one time... is what you're saying? |
| Chikage | That's right. Just like that one time you dragged me onto the stage. |
| Itaru | Roger. Actually, Senpai, it's strange for you to be so proactive, too. |
| Chikage | ... |
| The truth is, a family member that I parted with after a fight is scheduled to come home for the first time in three years. I was thinking that if I showed them that I'm taking acting seriously, they might be happy. |
| Well... I guess you can say that I'd like to show them a good side of myself. |
| Itaru | Huh, so that's——. Wait, you're not going to say, "If I said that, would you believe me?" right? |
| Chikage | Well, the "I'd like to show them a good side of myself" part was true, after all. |
| ——The best atonement for something that happened involving a play is to make it up with a play. |
| Itaru | ——. |
| (... This must be about that disapperance during our fourth play. I guess Senpai was bothered by that in his own way.) |
| Chikage | Haha. We're both being unusually serious. |
| Itaru | That's true. |
| |
| Sakuya | Good work everyone! |
| Chikage | Good work. |
| Citron | I worked up a good sweat today, too~. |
| Tsuzuru | Ah, can I have a bit of everyone's time? I finished the prototype, so I'd like everyone to take a look! |
| |
| Sakuya | This is so interesting! |
| Masumi | Isn't it fine? |
| Itaru | It also applies the feedback I gave to you. Good, good. |
| Tsuzuru | Thanks! |
| Itaru | Then, we should send this to Hoshii-san——. |
| *knock, knock, knock* |
| Sakuya | ? I wonder what that is? |
| Manager | Accept this letter! |
| Sakuya | Whoa, Manager!? |
| Manager | Farewell! |
| *slam* |
| Tsuzuru | What, he's leaving already?! |
| Citron | Sakuya, what did you get from him? |
| Sakuya | Hmm, it looks like a letter, but... |
| Chikage | ... "Secret letter" is written on it. |
| Masumi | ...! It might be a love letter for me from the Director. |
| Tsuzuru | There's no way. |
| Citron | Let's hurry and open it. |
| Sakuya | Umm... |
| |
| Chikage | ... I see. |
| Itaru | For an idea from the manager, it's pretty good. |
| Tsuzuru | This is a really good idea! |
| Citron | Sakuya, we'll be leaving those preparations to you. |
| Masumi | I'll do it in your stead at any time. |
| Sakuya | Okay! |
