| Izumi: |
Alice in Wonderland? |
| Tsuzuru: |
There's no plot yet, but I want it to be the motif of Spring Troupe's next play. |
| Itaru: |
And the cross dressing issue returns. |
| Sakuya: |
When we did Romeo, Juliet was turned into a guy, right? |
| Izumi: |
Never mind other characters, what do we do about Alice's image as a little girl? |
| Tsuzuru: |
I was thinking of making Alice a male college student this time. |
| Izumi: |
Oh! That's pretty new. |
| Tsuzuru: |
I want to make Alice and the Mad Hatter's strange conversation the main point of the script. |
| Sakuya: |
Their ways of thinking are tricky, so I think that's good! |
| Citron: |
It is very popular in my country too, Ice in Wonderland! |
| Tsuzuru: |
Sounds cold. It's Alice. |
| Masumi: |
Hm... |
| Yuki: |
What, doing Alice next? |
| Muku: |
Are you talking about Spring Troupe's next play? |
| Izumi: |
Ah, perfect timing. |
| Tsuzuru: |
Here, the plot for Spring Troupe's next play. |
| Kazunari: |
Heeey! That's neat. Who'll be doing Alice? |
| Yuki: |
...I can go all out for the costumes, right? |
| Muku: |
Yuki-kun, your face is turning into a villain's! |
| Tsuzuru: |
I got a bad feeling about this... |
| Yuki: |
If you're talking about Alice then it has to be a loli costume. I'll thoroughly enjoy myself and make it adorable. |
| Sakuya: |
A-adorable...?! |
| Itaru: |
TY in advance for a level of adorable not impossible for a man in his 20s to wear. |
| Yuki: |
You adjust, not the costume. |
| Itaru: |
Too much pressure. |
| Kazunari: |
Can't wait to design the flyer! Let's loli loli hype and get going. |
| Muku: |
Has the cast already been decided? |
| Tsuruzu: |
I was thinking Citron-san as the King of Hearts would be interesting. |
| Sakuya: |
So the Queen became a King too. |
| Citron: |
King... |
| Izumi: |
What's wrong? |
| Tsuzuru: |
You don't like it? |
| Citron: |
It is not that. I just instinctively do not like people who act like they are celebrities. |
| Tsuzuru: |
But a king is a celebrity. |
| Izumi: |
Well, if there aren't any complaints, then Citron-kun as the King of Hearts is decided. |
| Sakuya: |
They both have a big presence, so it's a perfect match! |
| Muku: |
And they look majestic even just standing! |
| Izumi: |
Mhm. |
| Tsuzuru: |
Next are Alice and the Mad Hatter, but I'm kind of at a loss here. |
| Izumi: |
Hmm, and they're the lead and second lead roles... |
|
(Alice and the Mad Hatter's lines have an airy, aloof feeling.) |
|
(Like the Mad Hatter's "A drink of my tea will wake you back up? I've never heard of such talk. Isn't that right, you all?"...) |
|
(And Alice's "Who else have you been talking to all this time, when there's been no one here but us?"...) |
|
If it's two people who have an image of talking indifferently with low energy, then I have a feeling Itaru-san and Masumi-kun might fit, but... What do you think? |
| Tsuzuru: |
Aah, I get it. They really do fit. |
| Sakuya: |
In that case, who will be Alice? |
| Itaru: |
An Alice in his twenties, GG. |
| Izumi: |
If it can't be Itaru, then maybe Masumi? |
| Tsuzuru: |
If we think about the balance in ages, then that way will be better. The Mad Hatter can be Alice's college professor too. |
| Izumi: |
Are you fine with that too, Masumi-kun? |
| Mazumi: |
You're choosing me for the lead role? |
| Izumi: |
Yes. Masumi-kun will be the leader, too. |
|
(I'm a little worried about how he'll do in other aspects besides acting though, like if he can bring everyone together...) |
| Masumi: |
...I'll do it. I'll show you that you can fall for me again. |
| Izumi: |
C-come again? |
| Tsuzuru: |
The motive's as absurd as always... |
| Izumi: |
Setting that latter part aside, good luck! |
| Masumi: |
Alright. |
| Izumi: |
With that, we're counting on you for the second lead role, Itaru-san! |
| Itaru: |
Less time to play games... |
| Izumi: |
Eeh~ You don't have to say such a thing... |
| Muku: |
Waa, Yuki-kun, the costume designs are cute! |
| Yuki: |
Though they're still rough sketches. |
| Kazunari: |
Anyhow, the Cheshire Cat and White Rabbit gotta have ears~ |
| Sakuya: |
E-ears... |
| Tsuzuru: |
Seriously...? |
| Itaru: |
... |
| Izumi: |
Itaru-san, would you prefer another role? |
| Itaru: |
...No, the Mad Hatter's fine. Cat ears or bunny ears on a salaryman in his twenties is tough. |
| Tsuzuru: |
It's hard for a college student in his teens too... |
| Izumi: |
Now it's the Cheshire Cat and the White Rabbit but... Sakuya-kun, Tsuzuru-kun, which would you prefer? |
| Sakuya: |
The White Rabbit's role is to guide Alice to Wonderland, so I think Tsuzuru-kun will fit. |
| Tsuzuru: |
Cat ears and rabbit ears are two really extreme choices... |
| Itaru: |
If it wasn't a male college student putting them on then they'd be two really heavenly choices. |
| Citron: |
I am a fan of cat ears! |
| Tsuzuru: |
Easy for you to say... |
| Masumi: |
You're the one who decided the motif. |
| Tsuzuru: |
Ugh... |
| Itaru: |
Boomerang FTW. |
| Izumi: |
So, the White Rabbit is Tsuzuru-kun. That makes Sakuya-kun the Cheshire Cat. |
| Sakuya: |
Alright! |
| Tsuzuru: |
Rabbit ears, huh... |
| Itaru: |
GJ. |
|
|
| Masumi: |
Alice in Wonderland... College student Alice... How do I portray that in a way that'll please her...? |
| Taichi: |
Hm hm. |
|
This month's feature is five guidelines for mature charm~ If I'm aiming for an older girl, then having a mature charm's the way to go~ |
| Masumi: |

|
| Taichi: |
Mm? |
| Masumi: |
Hand it over. |
| Taichi: |
Eh?! W-wait, but I was still in the middle of reading! |
