Poetic Inspiration Won’t Come!?
Backstage StoriesHomare | ...hnnn... |
...it’s hot. | |
Hot, it’s hot. ...and still, it’s hot! Why are Japanese summers so hot!? | |
No matter the level of genius, my fountain of ideas will dry up in these circumstances. | |
... | |
AAAAARGH~!! | |
...it’s hopeless. There’s no sufficient method to get my poetic inspiration flowing... | |
buzz buzz | |
Hm? | |
...h-hey! Shoo, shoo! | |
What are you lot!? This is breaking and entering, begone! | |
buzz buzz | |
So you have no intention of leaving. If that is your plan, I will show you no mercy. | |
There! | |
SMACK | |
Mgh! This way, no, this way? ...ugh, I’ve lost them!? | |
SMACK | |
H-How agile... | |
Arrgh, because I moved around I’m sweaty, and even hotter, and tired... | |
...hey, Hisoka-kun! You’re actually awake, are you not? Won’t you exterminate these mosquitoes in my stead? | |
Hisoka | ...zzz... |
Homare | Hisoka-kun! Hisoka-kun! Get rid of these mosquitoes, if you would! |
Hisoka | Nn... Alice... be quiet... |
...nm, zzz... | |
buzz buzz | |
Homare | ~!! Ahh, for god’s sake!!! |
phone rings | |
And at a time like this... who could it possibly be! | |
Yes, hello! | |
Editor | “Arisugawa-sensei! The deadline is—! If we don’t give them a manuscript by the end of the day, we’ll really be in a bind!” |
Homare | I am diligently writing as we speak! I’m busy right now. Please don’t call me today until I contact you!” |
Editor | “Ah, sensei—!” |
beep | |
Homare | Sigh. For starters, why haven’t we called a contractor when it’s been a week since the air conditioner broke...! |
And as soon as I open the window to let the wind in, it barely comes in and uninvited guests just start trespassing... | |
There’s supposed to be a window screen— | |
Wh–!? | |
Ridiculous... there’s a hole...? | |
So, you pinpointed this hole and invaded to sip on this genius blood...? | |
—but now isn’t the time to be saying such things! Ugh, what is the meaning of this!? | |
Sigh, if it’s come to this...! | |
Homare | Manager!! |
Manager | ??? Yes, can I help you? |
Homare | Don’t “can I help you” me. When is this dorm’s broken air conditioner going to be repaired!? |
To make matters worse, even if I try to open a window, the window screen has a hole in it and mosquitoes come in... | |
I can’t concentrate on writing poetry like this! | |
Manager | Ahh. There are plans to fix that tomorrow. |
Homare | Tomorrow isn’t good enough! My deadline is today, therefore I’ll be in trouble if you don’t fix it today! |
Manager | E-Even so... |
The repairman said that it’s really busy this time of year, so they could only fit us in tomorrow... | |
Homare | Good grief, you’re still our manager, are you not!? Try a LITTLE harder! |
Manager | Urk, y-yes, I’m sorry... |
Homare | Hmm... flushed mojito, no, a tropical rainforest eight-beat... that’s not right... |
buzz buzz | |
Mmm... fluttering mosquito... fluttering mosquito~... | |
Non, non. That doesn’t feel right either... | |
knock knock | |
Ah. | |
Izumi | Homare-san. |
Azuma | Homare, are you in there? |
Homare | ...? Yes, but did you need something? |
Izumi | The manager talked to us, so we bought you a mosquito coil! |
Homare | ...! My, this is...! |
Azuma | Your deadline is today, right? Sorry... we stopped by the store on our way home, so it ended up late. |
Homare | Not at all, just not being able to hear the mosquitoes anymore will make a great difference. I shall gratefully accept this. |
And what more, it’s shaped like a pig, is it not? As for the mosquito coil, surely it’s this, I see. | |
Well then, I shall light it immediately... | |
Oh? This is quite an unusually scented incense...? | |
Izumi | When we went to the store, there were some lavender-scented mosquito coils, so we bought one to try it out. What do you think? |
Homare | Ohh! There is such a thing these days!? |
Azuma | Fufu, we thought it would be a nice change of pace. |
Homare | ...it seems I cannot hear the mosquitoes anymore either. Little by little, poetic inspiration is... |
Ha!! I’ve got it...! | |
Brilliant lavender~ swirling mosquito coil, luululu, this feeling is victory! | |
Ahh, they are coming one after another! I must pen these immediately! | |
Azuma | Looks like he can write in peace now. I’m glad. |
Izumi | Yeah. |
Homare | Yes, yes, as expected, I’m a genius...! At this rate, I should meet my deadline! |
