| Citron | It’s been a while since we did this, I’m excited~! |
| Masumi | Cramped. |
| Sakuya | Don’t sleep so far away from us, Masumi-kun! It ruins the point. |
| Tsuzuru | Sleeping in a huddle like this reminds me of school trips. |
| Itaru | The outlet is mine. |
| Tsuzuru | Don’t just start off with charging your stuff! |
| Itaru | It’s my lifeline. |
| Sakuya | Huh? Chikage-san is late. |
| Tsuzuru | Maybe he got the time wrong? |
| Sakuya | Should I go look for him? |
| *LIME notification* |
| Itaru | Hm? |
| Senpai just sent me a LIME message. Says there’s a sudden job he has to take care of. |
| Sakuya | Eh, really.... |
| Tsuzuru | He’s definitely lying. |
| Citron | Chikage has no shirt~. |
| Masumi | Shirt...? |
| Tsuzuru | Do you mean he’s curt. |
| Citron | That’s it! |
| Itaru | ...You know, I actually established a contract with senpai when he joined the dorms. |
| Masumi | A contract? |
| Itaru | 1. Do not expose my slovenly dorm lifestyle to the outside world. |
| 2. Do not get in the way when I am immersed in games. |
| 3. Do not disturb the perfect placement of electric wires and cords in my room. |
| 4. Do not move my gaming consoles or my computer. |
| 5. You are banned from entering the room when I am taking videos (primarily from 10 PM to 12 AM on weekdays). |
| Tsuzuru | You’re making it impossible for him to stay in his room!? |
| Masumi | Way too strict.... |
| Itaru | But if he’s always in my room, I can’t upload new playthrough videos. Plus I can’t let anyone IRL find out who I am. |
| Sakuya | I wonder if that’s why Chikage-san has trouble staying in the dorms. |
| Tsuzuru | No wonder we haven’t gotten any closer. |
| Itaru | No, but I’m pretty sure he meant to do this from the start, even without the contract. |
| Sakuya | Eh? |
| Itaru | I’ve never once seen him sleep in the dorms. |
| Sakuya | Eeh!? |
| Masumi | Not even once? |
| Itaru | Every day he comes back to the dorms early in the morning, eats breakfast, and heads off to work. |
| Once I actually told him he didn’t have to go that far and that he should sleep in our room, but he said it was better for him that way. |
| He might be someone who fundamentally can’t live with other people; like, he can’t fall asleep when other people are around. |
| Citron | Then why would he dorm? |
| Itaru | That’s the question. |
| Masumi | Suspicious. |
| Tsuzuru | Chikage-san was apparently the one who said he wanted to dorm, too. |
| Sakuya | Maybe it was the meals...? |
| Masumi | So her curry.... |
| Itaru | No, I don’t think so. |
| Sakuya | He might be holding back because he joined after the rest of us...? |
| Maybe he really wants to get closer to us...! |
| Itaru | I don’t really think so~.... |
| Masumi | He doesn’t look like that kind of guy. |
| Citron | Holding back is bad! Let’s make a plan to counteract with Chikage more! |
| Tsuzuru | Interact. |
| Sakuya | That sounds good! |
| Citron | Let’s hold a strategy meeting now! |
| Tsuzuru | Guess we should give it a go. |
