| Izumi | So this is what an acrobatics dojo looks like. |
| Citron | I’M SO PUMPED! |
| Izumi | So how do you start? |
| Hisoka | .. Let me show you. |
| Izumi | Huh? You know how? |
| Hisoka | HAH! |
| Citron | WOW! Looks just like how I see it done in Kabuki! |
| Izumi | AMAZING! |
| Hisoka | Right now we will work on the three primary virtues. During the play, Sahul learns a move called the forward somersault. He rolls forward and lands on two hands and one leg. |
| Citron | Wooow you know your stuff. Are you sure you’re not secretly a Kabuki enthusiast? |
| Hisoka | .. I just watched a video. |
| Citron | So how do I do it? |
| Hisoka | .. First, try and do a normal somersault. |
| Izumi | Is it really that easy? |
| Citron | OK! |
| Izumi | Can you really do it?! |
| Citron | HAH! |
| Izumi | You did it! |
| Hisoka | .. Not quite. |
| Izumi | It did look a little different from what you did.. |
| (B-But will Citron still be able to do it?) |
| Citron | — HAH! |
| Izumi | Oh! Yes, like that! |
| (Even though Hisoka is helping to support him, I think Citron has made quite amazing progress in such a short amount of time!) |
| Hisoka | .. Honestly, you’re reflexes were already quite good, but because you weren’t afraid to push yourself you’ve improved quite fast. |
| Citron | I think I can muster it with just a bit more practice. |
| Izumi | Yea, you’ll master it. |
| Hisoka | Don’t overdo it. Your legs are starting to get tired. |
| Citron | Now that you say that, my legs are feeling a bit heavy. I think I wanna try just one more time— |
| Izumi | No. That’s enough for today. |
| Citron | Oh, director is such a worry fart. |
| Izumi | By that I think you mean worrywart! |
 |
| Citron | Goood evening yoo. We’re gonna have dance practice today again, let’s get this bread. |
| Azuma | Looking forward to it too. |
| Citron | .. |
| Azuma | Yes, you’re already better than we were the other day. |
| Citron | You think so? I think you can teach me more! |
| Azuma | But I told you everything I knew already, right? The former crown prince’s dancing is already so graceful and elegant, I do not think there is anything someone like me could teacher you. |
| Citron | With a compliment like that, I feel a bit more confident. |
| Azuma | .. |
| Citron | ? |
| Azuma | My prince, come here for a moment. |
 |
| Homare | “Hmm, what wonderful form. Alrighty, how about you show me what you know.” |
| Citron | “Okay!” |
| Izumi | (We are working on adding some little details here and there today.. But honestly, just watching Citron’s perfect routine with the shamisen and somersaults really has me at a loss for words.) |
| The fact that you were able to master these moves in such a short amount of time is truly impressive, Citron. |
| Sakuya | It’s because he practiced a lot by himself. |
| Azuma | The other day he got a blood blister on his hand and some bruises at Buyo practice. It looked pretty bad so I put some cream on the wounds. |
| Hisoka | But didn’t we say we weren’t going to practice alone because it’s too dangerous? |
| Sakuya | What? |
| Azuma | Even a prince should know his own limits. |
| .. In order to prevent burnout you should take breaks. |
| Sakuya | Even if you’re up late, you should make sure to sleep properly. |
| Azuma | I have no doubts he’s been working hard his whole life, but he must know when to take a break. |
| Hisoka | .. We will watch over Citron so please don’t worry, director. |
| Izumi | Alright, thank you. |
| (Citron is really serious about this performance. I can tell he is working hard to be able to share his feelings with the people of Zahra.) |
