Nocturnality
EP: The Footsteps of Winter
Previous Event Story
TasukuHey, how much longer?
TsumugiUmm… just a little bit more I think.
Tasuku*sigh*
IzumiI’m sorry I’m late! —Huh? The rest aren’t here yet?
TsumugiNo…
Azuma-san’s counteractive skincare for the beach seems to be taking a while, and Homare-san was looking for Hisoka-kun’s stock of marshmallows.
TasukuWhat about Mikage?
IzumiNow that you mention it, I think I saw him sleeping in the courtyard earlier…
Tasuku…Geez. When will we be able to leave?
HomareNow, why don’t we take off!
AzumaThis is exciting.
TasukuWe haven’t even left and I’m already tired.
Hisoka…Lack of sleep?
HomareYou must have been so excited that you couldn’t sleep last night!
TasukuI got tired of waiting for you guys.
HomareHm, can you change the BGM to classical music? I’m rather fond of Schumann and Fauré.
TasukuListen when people are talking.
IzumiThe beach~!
But it’s cold…!
HomareI think I’m about to freeze…!
AzumaAs expected, the sea breeze is chilly at this time of the year. I think I’ll stay inside the car.
Hisoka…Let’s go home.
TasukuWhat the heck did we come here for!?
TsumugiBut this has a charm of its own too.
HomareIndeed. It evokes a desolate scene of the ocean blurred by frozen ice and snow. I feel like I can compose a rather nice poem.
IzumiIt might have a positive impact on your acting starting tomorrow!
AzumaWell, I guess it’s perfect for Reo’s image.
TasukuBecause of the sad, lonely feeling?
AzumaExactly.
IzumiNonetheless, please make sure that you don’t catch a cold.
TsumugiWhy don’t we get something warm to drink?
HomareMhm… Drinking coffee at a place like this feels rather special.
TsumugiIt’s a good thing that there’s a convenience store nearby.
Hisoka…It’s bitter.
HomareEven though you put 4 milk and 3 sugars in?
TasukuCan you even call that coffee still?
AzumaHisoka really has a sweet tooth.
TsumugiWe should’ve gotten you a caffè latte instead. Sorry.
Izumi
…It sure is quiet here though.
TasukuWe’re the only ones weird enough to go to the beach at this time of the year.
TsumugiI’m sure that we wouldn’t be able to relax like this during beach season since it gets so crowded.
IzumiI can’t imagine the Winter Troupe driving to the beach in the middle of summer.
AzumaThat’s true. The last time we were here, it was on a winter night.
HomareIndeed. The moon looked beautiful.
TasukuA lot of things happened since then, but in the end we still don’t know Mikage’s real identity.
HomareIf I remember correctly, was he not a former man of the sea?
TasukuThat was just a speculation.
Hisoka…I’m now Mikage Hisoka of Mankai Company. So it’s not like I need to remember my past.
AzumaIf Hisoka’s okay with that, then shouldn’t we leave it at that?
HomareIndeed. Even if he was a man of the sea or an alien, Hisoka-kun is Hisoka-kun.
Tasuku…That’s right.
Izumi*sneeze*
TsumugiShould I get you something to put on? I left mine in the car.
IzumiI’m sorry… Can I borrow it for a bit?
TsumugiTasuku, car key.
TasukuHere.
Hisoka…Marshmallows.
TsumugiI’ll bring them with me.
TasukuDid you already finish the ones you had earlier?
HomareHe stuffed them all into his coffee.
TasukuThat’s not even coffee anymore. It’s coffee-flavoured marshmallows.
Hisoka…Arisu, you can have it.
HomareAre you telling me to eat those marshmallows soaked in coffee?
Hisoka…They were your marshmallows to begin with.
HomareCould you stop forcing things on me whenever it’s inconvenient for you? Good grief. If you can’t drink it, then tell us beforehand.
Hisoka…It’s not like I can’t drink it.
AzumaHehe. As I thought, going to the beach with everyone is fun.
TasukuI wasn’t wrong about it being noisy.
AzumaCome to think of it – the day we got our scripts, why did you choose to go to the beach?
TasukuI thought you liked the beach, Azuma-san?
AzumaDo I…?
TasukuI had a feeling you’d been saying that you wanted to go to the beach, so…
AzumaThat’s why, you chose it specifically?
TasukuWell, I would’ve felt bad if I’d just made you practice reading the script with me.
AzumaSo you meant to compensate? Hehe, you’re truly a man of few words.
TasukuYou don’t like the beach?
AzumaNo, I do… I do now.
TasukuI really don’t understand you well.
Azuma…Is that so?
TasukuYou asked before if we’ve truly changed.
AzumaYeah.
TasukuI couldn’t answer back then, but now I can say for certain— We’ve changed.
We’ve become a proper team… even though it took us a while. Well, I don’t know if ‘team’ is the right word though.
AzumaWe’re people who share the same destiny, right? According to Homare.
TasukuThat’s right.
