| Tsumugi | I wonder if Azuma-san’s alright… |
| Guy | I wonder how sleeping with room 205 went. |
| Tasuku | I’m sure Mikage just ate marshmallows by himself and slept, and Arisugawa would probably read out poems forever and keep everyone awake. |
| Izumi | I can really imagine it… |
| Azuma | Good morning. |
| Homare | Hello, gentlemen! It’s a beautiful morning! |
| Hisoka | Yawn… |
| Tsumugi | How was sleeping with each other? |
| Azuma | It was very comfortable. |
| Homare | I had fallen asleep while reading my poems. |
| Hisoka | …I slept while eating marshmallows. |
| Tasuku | Just as I thought. |
| Azuma | But I didn’t have any nightmares, and I had a good night’s sleep. |
| Tsumugi | I’m glad. |
| Guy | Your complexion seems good today as well. |
| Izumi | Then let’s start rehearsal! |
| |
| Azuma | “Thank you for staying.” |
| Hisoka | “No, thank you for everything.” |
| Azuma | “Stay safe and take care.” |
| Izumi | (Mhm, it’s a lot smoother than yesterday.) |
| It’s a lot better! |
| I think if you could put a little bit of your Owari’s emotions into your lines, it’d be good. |
| Azuma | My Owari’s emotions… |
| Tsumugi | You’ve improved a lot from yesterday, so let’s continue to make it better. |
| Azuma | That’s what I’ll do. |
| Oh, I just remembered that I’ll be sleeping with you and Tasuku today. |
| Tasuku | I never thought I would be sleeping with people like this. |
| Azuma | It’s fine. It might help you with a role in the future. |
| Tasuku | Well, everything is experience. |
| Azuma | I’m excited to see how you’ll sleep with me. |
| Tsumugi | I’m not sure if I’ll be able to do it well, but I’ll do my best! |
| |
| Azuma | Excuse me. |
| Tsumugi | Uhm… please sit down for the time being. |
| Azuma | Is here alright? |
| Tasuku | ……… |
| Tsumugi | ……… |
| Tasuku | Uh… what should we do next? |
| Azuma | I’ll leave it to you. |
| Tsumugi | I worried over how to arrange the futons - all next to each other, everyone in the same one - but I couldn’t decide… |
| Azuma | I don’t really mind, but being in the same futon as Tasuku sounds suffocating. |
| Tsumugi | You’re right, it’s always warm next to Tasuku. Probably because his body temperature’s so high. |
| Azuma | Maybe it’s the muscles. |
| Tasuku | I’m sorry I’m so suffocating. |
| Tsumugi | When we were students, Tasuku was always forced to sit in the place where the AC was the strongest. He was always told to cool down. |
| It’s perfect during the winter, though. |
| Tasuku | Don’t treat a human like a heat pack. |
| Tsumugi | Ah, sorry, we were talking about the futon— |
| Azuma | Fufu. What a cute beginner. |
| Tsumugi | Uhm, could you teach me about sleeping with people? |
| Azuma | Tsumugi’s so serious. |
| …My sleeping with people means I “sleep” with them. |
| But that didn’t mean I would sleep right next to them - it would always be up to the customer. |
| There were a lot of different customers, including some eccentric ones. |
| But everyone just pretended that they “wanted to sleep well” and actually, everyone was facing their own worries and being trapped by them. |
| They desperately try to hide it and come to you wanting to escape from reality. |
| On the outside, everyone is smiling and everything seems to be smooth sailing, but you don’t know what they’re like on the inside. It might be that they’re just putting on a strong front. |
| …Just like I was before. |
| Tasuku | ………. |
| Azuma | Nobody is just looking for a good night’s sleep. They’re looking for salvation. |
| So be everyone’s refuge for one night, and when the sun rises, send them out with a “Take care”… |
| Tsumugi | It’s almost like Owari, from the show. |
| Azuma | Maybe that’s true… But when I slept with people, the one looking for salvation was really me. |
| Tsumugi | ……… |
| Azuma | Anyways, you don’t need to sleep with me if you don’t want to. If I feel the presence of people around me, I’m sure I won’t have nightmares. |
| Tasuku | You should have said that earlier. |
| Azuma | Sorry, sorry. You’re so cute when you’re worried. |
| Tasuku | Actually, what happened to the plot? |
| Azuma | I had an acquaintance express interest. |
| But because I asked, they offered to pay more than the price I put it up for. I’m grateful, but I’m not sure about what to do. |
| If it’s going to stay an empty plot forever, I would feel bad for the purchaser and my parents… |
| Tsumugi | You’re thinking about the future, huh. |
| Azuma | Even though it’s an empty plot now, it is land my parents chose. |
| …Alright then, should we sleep now? |
| Tasuku | …Since there are three of us, should we have a read-through? |
| Azuma | I’ve never heard of sleeping with a theater nerd… Well, it’s fine. |
| Tasuku | You brought your script with you. |
| Azuma | I thought this would happen. |
| Tsumugi | As expected of you. |
| |
| Azuma | Mm… |
| Wait, when did I fall asleep? |
| Tsumugi | Good morning. |
| Azuma | Did Tasuku go for a run? |
| Tsumugi | Mhm. I was woken up by him and was told that I should be up before Azuma-san. |
| Azuma | I see. Thank you. |
| Tsumugi | …Last night, you said you were looking for salvation. Is it alright if I ask you what that salvation was? |
| Azuma | —I didn’t think you would ask me that directly. |
| Tsumugi | …Sorry. |
| Azuma | No, it’s fine. Remember when me and the director got trapped together during our debut performance? |
| Everyone came to find us… and Tsumugi, you reached out your hand. |
| |
| Tsumugi | “I was worried. Now, let’s go.” |
| |
| Azuma | —It was like you pulled me out of my lonely darkness, and that made me happy. |
| In that instant, I was saved. |
| Tsumugi | …I see. |
| Then we’ll save you as many times as it takes. Reaching out my hand, just like this—. |
| Azuma | —. |
| Thank you, Tsumugi. |
