| Taichi | Nn… |
| Yuki | Hey, don’t just go nodding off in the middle of work; you’ll misplace your stitching. Wake up! |
| Taichi | I-I’m up! I’m up! |
| Yuki | Geez... Oh right, have you done your routine workout already? |
| You said that you’ve been following a diet and getting some training done to help with your runway walk. |
| Taichi | Haven’t done today’s reps yet. I’ll continue just after a lil’ bit more sewing work, and then I’ll get back to my room! |
| Yuki | ... SIGH) |
| There’s only one piece to work on anyway, so I won’t need any more of your assistant work for today. |
| I’ll take the rest from here. You should focus on your model bit instead. |
| Taichi | Huh? But— |
| Yuki | Don’t make me say it twice. Just go! |
| Taichi | O-Okay! |
| *DOOR CLOSES* |
| Yuki | …..Phew. |
| (The costume is coming along nicely. But…) |
| |
| Taichi (flashback) | Oh! Also… If it’s fine for me to choose one thing in particular… I’d really want to have something on it that’d represent you as well, Yuki-chan… Just maybe! |
| |
| Yuki | Something that represents me... |
| |
| |
| Omi | All done. Here’s yours, Taichi— Another plate of a specially arranged protein-packed diet meal. |
| Taichi | Thank you, Omi-kun! This special dish looks so good! |
| Kazunari | Taicchan dedicating himself to his special diet is such an inspo~ |
| Omi | He’s even been putting a lot of effort into his workout in our room as well. |
| Taichi | Hehe. I have Tasuku-san and Ten-chan to thank for all that! They’re the ones who came up with the diet and exercise regimen for me! Right, Ten-chan? |
| Tenma | And it looks like you’ve been following them well, too. |
| Taichi | ‘Course! Too bad I’m not allowed to eat my favorite junk foods though… |
| But this is all to make sure I can make my big-time stage appearance a huge success!! |
| Izumi | You’re really hyped up for this, Taichi-kun. I’m sure it’ll turn out great! |
| Kazunari | Speaking of, how’s the costume? You sure it’s fine for you to not help out? |
| Taichi | I was helping out until we were about midway into it, but since we only have one outfit to work on, Yuki-chan told me I should focus on my model practice ‘n all that… |
| So I’ve basically been forced to take a break from helping out on the outfit-making. |
| But now I can’t help but be curious about how it must be looking after all that, so I’m gonna charge in headfirst and check on Yuki-chan’s work after this! |
| Omi | So that’s why, huh? |
| Taichi | It’s only one outfit this time but, y’know… The fact that Yuki-chan can put out a whole new set of outfits for every troupe performance— SIX pieces at the least, too! Isn't he just the most amazing guy for that?! |
| Kazunari | Felt~! And I still get blown away every time! |
| Izumi | I agree with you there. His designs have so much charm to them, and they’re always a huge hit with our audience. |
| Taichi | Right! Nothing but mad respect for him!! |
| —Thank you for the meal! I’ll head over to check on Yuki-chan right away! |
| Letting you know before I intrude in your room, Ten-chan! |
| Tenma | If you think you’ll stay up until late at night, text me on LIME. I’ll stay over at Banri-san’s if that’s gonna be the case. |
| Omi | Since you’re going, could you take Yuki’s share of dinner with you too? |
| Taichi | Gotcha! Thanks, Omi-kun! |
| |
| |
| Taichi | Yuki-chan, how’s the outfit coming along? I’ve brought your food too— |
| ——Wait!? Is that it on the mannequin there? You’ve finished it!? |
| Yuki | …Oh, it’s just you, Taichi. |
| Well, the base is pretty much done just as I expected it would be… But… |
| Taichi | But…? |
| Yuki | “Something that represents me”...' |
| That’s what you asked for, right? I haven’t decided on what that is for me. |
| Taichi | Ohh……. |
| S-Sorry! I didn’t mean to trouble you this much with my lil' request…! |
| Yuki | It’s not your fault. It’s entirely on me. |
| Plus this whole look is still lacking a certain punch to it. If only I could figure out what it is… |
| Taichi | …. |
| … Hey, Yuki-chan. |
| Yuki | What’s up? |
| Taichi | …Let me help you! Let’s think about this one together! |
| I’m the one who’s stood and watched by your side the most. Which means, I’m the one who’d understand your sense of style the most too…!! |
| That’s why, if there’s any way I can lend you a hand, I’ll do it! |
| Together, we’re the “Tailor Boys”, after all! And besides, three heads are better than one! |
| Yuki | —— |
| …….Pfft. |
| You do realize there’s only two of us, not three? |
| But… If you’re going that far, then I appreciate the help. |
| Taichi | Of course! Leave it to me!! |
| So… Something that represents Yuki-chan… Let’s see… For Yuki-chan… Hmm…… |
| *LIME NOTIFICATION* |
| Taichi | Ah, sorry! That was mine! That's some awful timing…! |
| Yuki | It’s fine. Go ahead and check it. |
| Taichi | O-Okay. |
| Oh, it’s a LIME message from Mom— Or rather, Mii-chan. |
| Taichi’s Mom | “I can't sit still knowing I'm going to see Yuki-chan again, so I took a picture of Yuki-chan’s teddy bear~!” |
| Taichi | Ahaha, she took a selfie with her wool-felt Yurukuma! Look look! |
| Yuki | Oh? …How cute. That’s the one I gave her during our Mixed Play run, isn’t it? |
| Taichi | Yep yep. Mii-chan’s been so attached to it that she even displays it in her room—— |
| ——!! |
| Yuki | What’s up? You suddenly stiffened up. |
| Taichi | …This! This is it!! |
| Yuki | Huh? |
