Homare	So all of us have gathered here at last.
Muku	Yes!
Kazunari	What's with all of the complete cast of the Circus performance meeting here Aririn?
Homare	Fufu, that is a good question.
	Feast your eyes upon this, everyone! For our role study, we shall watch this together!
Kazunari	Ah! That's the movie that became a hot topic for a bit before!
Sakuya	I was really curious about it! So it’s already made into a CD huh.
Muku	Oh, it's a circus-themed musical movie!
Homare	Indeed that's right, our next mixed performance is revolving around a circus is it not?
	If we watch this, I thought surely this'll give us a hint for our role making.
Muku	That's right! Arisu-san, thanks a lot!
Kazunari	That's Aririn for ya!
Sakuya	It looks like a lot of fun! This will be the first time I'll watch this.
Kazunari	I saw it one time in the movies with my uni friends but if it was for a circus member role I woulda seen it in a different perspective.
	Now it looks like I can see it in different and lotsa ways! So awesome~! Let's watch it immediately!
Sakuya	Waah….It was interesting! The second half was unexpected, I was really surprised!
Muku	I understand how you feel! The last part was miraculous. I was taken aback!
Homare	It was a great musical movie!
Kazunari	The theme song was so good too~ even as the staff roll rolled I was still staring at it!
Homare	A theme song huh… Ha! I've got an idea!
	As it fits with the time, why don't we have a conversation in a musical style?
Sakuya	Musical style?
Kazunari	Sounds good! Our performance isn't a musical but both the groove and atmosphere's a part of the role making!
	We'll definitely have fun!
Muku	Huh, wait…..Now that I think about it, didn't Yuki-kun tell us he forbids musicals…
Kazunari	Ah….. right. Yukki told us that he doesn't allow them daily…
Homare	That is fine, the member who forbids them is not here, yes?
	And fortunately, other troupe members are currently out except for us!
	This is an opportunity we cannot miss!
Sakuya	I agree…Then while we're at it, why don't we do it until everyone comes back home?
Muku	Yes, you're right!
Kazunari	Vibes up! Then everyone, let's immediately start this musical styled conversation~♪

Sakuya	Everyone~♪ Here are the juices and candies~♪ Would anyone like it~?
Muku	Wow~♪ Thank you~I feel happy~♪ I'll be digging in~♪
Homare	Ha! This water sparked an idea for a poem~♪ Orange juice~ Sun in the midsummer gracias~
	Outstanding sunglaaaaases~♪
Kazunari	Lalala~♪ Aririn is cheerful too~♪ Yay, yay, yaaaay~♪
	Sakusaku~♪ Can you hand me over those biscuits~?
Sakuya	Yes~♪ Enjoy~♪
Kazunari	Much thankies~♪ Biscuits given by Sakusaku~♪ are super delicious~♪
Muku	Nom nom~♪ This is really delicious~♪
Homare	A premium tea time~♪ Ooh~♪ Excellent sweet harmony~♪
Yuki	Shut the hell up! You guys' voices echo to the front door! What in the world are you guys doing?
Kazunari	This is bad! I didn’t expect Yukki to be the first one to get home!
Muku	Yu-Yuki-kun, welcome home…!
Homare	Welcome back, Yuki-kun.
Yuki	I’m home….and?
Homare	The truth is, for our next performance we decided to watch a circus-themed musical movie.
	So we decided to do a musical-styled conversation as a part of our role-making!
Yuki	Hah? Did you forget already? I said that I won’t allow musicals any time soon!
Homare	But the Winter Troupe did them during our Opera performance did not? And none of us are banned from doing it?
Yuki	Don’t be ridiculous! The musical ban applies to everyone, not groups!
Homare	What!? It applies to everyone…!
Sakuya	I-is that how it is?
Kazunari	Well, Yukki, this musical conversation is to prepare for our role-making!
	Come on Yukki, do you want to eat a biscuit?
Yukki	Don’t think you can get away with this by using a snack.
	Anyways, musicals are banned. Good grief…so it’s the shameless poemer’s doing…
Homare	Sigh….Yuki-kun is strict as always.
