Madam A	The tea party today was so fun~
Citron	Yes! I thought so too!
Madam B	Hehe, let’s talk again soon! Adieu for today.
Citron	Adieu for today~!
	(The tea party was as lively as ever, it was so fun~)
	(They gave me some cherries! I’m gonna bring them back to share with the rest of the troupe. Yeyyyy yeyyy.
???	.... Citron....
Citron	Oh, Takashi, what’s up?
	You don’t look like your normal cheerful self. What happened?
Takashi	.... Yea.... Well you see....
Citron	Hmm here... and this goes over here... mmm...
Izumi	(What is Citron making...?)
	Hey Citron, are you making another Citron Junior?
Citron	Oh, director. This is actually a welcome doll.
Izumi	Welcome doll... You mean one of those dolls you see at the entrances of wedding venues? Uhhh, who’s getting married?
Citron	Takashi is!
Izumi	Takashi?
Citron	He’s a friend I met at the shopping district.
	He told me it was his girlfriend’s wish to ‘become a bride’. So I wanna help him make that wish come true.
	But he told me he doesn’t have money for the ceremony. I am making these dolls so he can have a little homemade wedding ceremony.
Izumi	Ohhhhh, a puppet wedding ceremony sounds lovely!
Citron	Takashi always comes and supports my street acts and cheers me on and says ‘FIGHTING!’ at all our performances.
	He makes me happy, So it’s my turn to help him out.
Izumi	I see....
	If there is anything I can do, I’d like to help.
Citron	Ohh, really? Thank you, director! Then you can help me make some of the stuff that will go around the dolls for decoration.
Izumi	Okay, got it!
Kazunari	Huh? What are you two doing~?
Yuki	Uhh.... Dolls?
Citron	We’re making welcome dolls for Takashi’s wedding!
Kazunari	Ohhh wow! Sounds fun!
Yuki	Uhh well.....
Kazunari	A homemade ceremony! So shiok leh, mega vibes up!
	Hey hey, let us help!
Yuki	Hey don’t drag me into this like that.
Kazunari	It’s cool, it’s cool, it’ll be more fun with all of us helping! C’mon Yuki, join us!
Yuki	Ugh, well guess we’re making some cute stuff.
Citron	Yeahh! We’ll make this a sparkling wedding ceremony!

Yuki	Hey, when is this wedding ceremony?
Citron	Next Sunday.
Izumi	Seriously!?
Kazunari	Ohhhhh-- Well then, guess we can’t do anything too elaborate.
Yuki	So then there’s no way I could make a dress. The most I could make is probably just a bowtie and a veil.
	How tall is the bride?
Citron	I don’t know, but I am thinking like 150cm.
Yuki	So she is petit. Well, I could make a short veil.
Kazunari	Then I can go make a welcome board! What are their names?
Citron	Takashi and Naomi.
Kazunari	Okkkayyyyy! Gonna make the cuuutteesst board, leave it to me!
Izumi	It’s pretty nice to have you two helping.
Citron	Yes! With the shower of 100 people!
Yuki	You mean the power of 100 people?
Citron	Yes, that!
Izumi	Welcome dolls, welcome board, a bowtie, a veil, what else do you need for a wedding.....?
Omi	I’m back-- Oh, what’s with these cherries?
Citron	I got them as a gift from one of the nice ladies in the shopping district.
	OH!
Kazunari	Ohh, looks like Ronron got an idea!?
Citron	Ding ding! Omi, you could make a wedding cake!
Omi	Wedding cake?
	--- I see, alright a wedding cake.
	Got it, leave it to me.
Citron	Thank you so much, Omi!
	The cake doesn’t have to be big.
Omi	Are you sure? We have quite a lot of cherries here, I could make a pretty big cake with that.
Citron	I think a smaller cake would suit Takashi and Naomi the best.
Izumi	? Really?
Omi	Well, if that’s what Citron says. I will make a cute mini cake then.
Citron	Thank you.
Izumi	Finished making all the decorations!
	Huh?
Takashi Doll	“Good evening!”
Izumi	!?
Takashi Doll	“Thank you so much for making the decorations for our wedding!”
Izumi	(What is this voice....)
	Fufu, you’re welcome. I hope you have a fun wedding!
Takashi Doll	“Yes, I’m excited! You are ignited too, so please come!
Izumi	Not ignited, you mean invited, right? Thank you so much for the invitation.
Naomi Doll	“Oh hey, Takashi, who are you talking to? Are you cheating on me!?”
Takashi Doll	“Huh!? No way no way! I am flatly in love with you, Naomi!”
Izumi	You mean madly in love, not flatly, hey Citron.
Citron	Ohh, did I give it away?
Izumi	(There is no way I wouldn’t recognise his unique speech pattern...)
	You made the dolls into puppets.
Citron	You know a marriage ceremony needs some type of purple dance!
Izumi	Purple dance? Oh, performance.
Citron	Yea, that! I am gonna do a little performance with the dolls.
Izumi	Oh, I see!
