Izumi | Okay, now let me explain about our theatre a bit. |
| MANKAI Company is divided into four troupes, they are Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter. Each troupe will perform a performance. |
| Each troupe consists of five people, and that means we need one more person to complete Summer Troupe. |
| There are still three months left until Summer Troupe's debut performance. |
Tenma | Three months!? It's impossible with these members' abilities, you know. |
Izumi | We'll be all right. |
Tenma | On what basis do you say so... |
Sakuya | We were all inexperienced at first, but we still managed to perform on schedule with around two months of practice. Everyone will be all right, don't worry! |
Tenma | You guys could perform that in two months despite being amateurs...!? Are you for real... |
Izumi | That's right, I hope all of you will also do your best within three months. |
Yuki | ...I guess I should've joined later. |
Kazunari | Aight! |
Muku | I-I'll do my best! |
Izumi | Ah, right, our theatre also has a dorm for the members. Do you guys want to live there? It's not mandatory, though. You can come to practice from home. |
Kazunari | I'm in, I'm in. I want to live together with Tsuzurun~. |
Tsuzuru | Ugh.... |
Itaru | Tsuzuru, control your expression. |
Izumi | Then, Kazunari-kun will live in the dorm, and... |
| Since the three of you are still students, we have to ask for your parents' permission first if you want to live in the dorm... |
Yuki | I've already told them about this, and they allowed me to live in the dorm. |
Izumi | Is that so? |
Yuki | My parents believe that they should still send their children on a journey even when they're not cute[1]. |
Kazunari | Eh~? But Yukki is mega cute, you know! Super adorable! |
Yuki | Yeah, yeah. |
Izumi | Can I contact your parents, then? Just to make sure. |
Yuki | Okay. Wait a minute. |
| |
Yuki | ...Hello, it's Yuki. Yeah, I've joined the theatre. Yeah, yeah. Director wants to talk to you about the dorm thing. |
| Yeah, I'll give her the phone. |
| Here. |
Izumi | Hello? |
Yuki's Mom | Hello, this is Yuki's mother speaking. |
Izumi | Nice to meet you. I'm Tachibana, the president and director of MANKAI Company. |
| I wanted to say my greeting since Yuki-kun will be joining our company. |
Yuki's Mom | Oh my, thank you for going out of your way to speak with me. |
Izumi | I heard that you gave Yuki-kun permission to live in the dorm. Is that correct? |
Yuki's Mom | Yes. I'm sure that being away from his parents will give him a good experience. Please make him into shape! |
Izumi | I-I understood. I will take full responsibility for that. |
| (As expected, the holy land of theatre is different.... Everyone seems to be more lenient here.) |
| Well then, I'll contact you again for further details... Goodbye. |
Izumi | Okay, I'll give back your phone. Thanks. |
Yuki | Ok. |
Izumi | How about you, Tenma-kun? |
Tenma | I'm living in the dorm too. |
Izumi | Can I contact your parents? |
Tenma | They've been traveling abroad all year round for shooting. I can't contact them. |
Izumi | (His situation is similar to Masumi-kun...) |
| It's all right, I can just send them a voice mail. |
Tenma | ...Fine, then. |
| |
Izumi | Okay, I think this will do for now. |
| Then, how about you, Muku-kun? |
Muku | I-If possible, I want to live in the dorm too. |
Izumi | Have you not talked about this to your parents yet? |
Muku | Not yet... I haven't even told them about the whole theatre thing... |
Izumi | Since you go to the same school as Yuki-kun, that means your home is not too far away right? You can come to practice from home... |
Muku | No! I'd like to live in the dorm too. |
Izumi | Is, is that so? Then, let me contact your parents. |
Muku | Yes... |
| |
Muku | ...Hello? It's me. Yes, yes, I'm at Veludo Way. |
| No, I didn't come here to watch a performance. I came here for an audition. Yes, yes, I'd like to join a theatre company. Yes, I'll be all right. |
| And I want to live in the dorm. Yes. I'd like to ask for your permission. No, that's not it. I want to live in the dorm. |
| No, really, it's not like that. I swear. |
Izumi | (Is he gonna be all right... I wonder if I should explain it on his behalf.) |
Muku | As I said, I'd like to try my very best in theatre....! I beg you, dad...! |
Izumi | (Muku-kun.... He really wants to act.) |
Muku | ...Yes, yes. I promise. Yes. Then, I'll give the phone to Director-san. |
Izumi | Hello. This is Tachibana speaking, I'm the president and director of the theatre. |
Muku's Father | Nice to meet you. I'm Muku's father. |
Izumi | Did you already give your permission to let Muku-kun join the theatre and live in the dorm? |
Muku's Father | ....I did. |
Izumi | (His voice is trembling for some reason....) |
| Excuse me, but are you really fine with that...? If you mind with that--. |
Muku's Father | No, I'm sorry. That kid has never been selfish since he was born. This is the first time I see him begging like that so--. |
Izumi | (He's moved to tears...!) |
| ...I see. I, too, understand Muku-kun's determination. That's why I'd like to work hard to support and guide him from now on. |
Muku's Father | I'll leave Muku in your care. |
Izumi | Yes, I'll do my best. |
| (Muku-kun has good parents, huh. I can feel it by talking to his dad.) |
| Okay, with this, Muku kun can live in the dorm too. |
Muku | Yes! Please take care of me! |
Izumi | You can start moving next Saturday. How? |
| Since you may bring a lot of stuff with you, I don't mind if you move faster or later, but practice will start next Saturday. |
Yuki | Crappy actor's gonna live in the dorm too, huh... |
Tenma | Do you have any complain? |
Yuki | Not really~. I'm just wondering if you understand the phrase "communal life" and "group action." |
Tenma | What....!? |
Muku | I'll be in your care, Rurikawa-kun! |
Yuki | Me too. |
Kazunari | Yukki, let's be roommates! |
Yuki | Hell no. |
Kazunari | Even that cold attitude of yours is cute! |
Izumi | (Seems like organising the dorm's rooms for Summer Troupe will be really hard...!) |
