| Kazunari | (After officially getting the commission from Troupe Radiance, I made some roughs for the flyer all in one go, but…) |
| Hrmm… Something just feels off… |
| (Maybe there’s something I kinda, like, haven’t grasped yet… No lightbulb moment or anything… I guess when it came to our usual flyers, getting Tsuzuru’s feedback had always been a huge help.) |
| *KNOCK KNOCK* |
| Kazunari | Coming coming~ |
| *DOOR OPENS* |
| Izumi | Hope I’m not disturbing you in your work, Kazunari-kun. There’s just something I need to discuss with you, could I have a moment? |
| Kazunari | Okieee! I’ll go there right now. |
| |
| |
| Tsuzuru | You even called Miyoshi-san over? |
| Kazunari | Huh, so you mean you wanted to discuss this with me and Tsuzuroon together? |
| Izumi | That’s right. |
| Actually, I was contacted by Kuraki-sensei— the advisor for Fuko High’s theatre club. |
| Do you remember when MANKAI Company performed a play together with the club for the school’s Setsubun Festival? |
| They were hoping to see if it’d be alright to use the script Tsuzuru-kun wrote for them and perform a rerun with the theatre club’s current members.[1] |
| Tsuzuru | Ohh, that makes sense then. |
| I don’t mind at all, I’d love to see how the theatre club is doing now. |
| Kazunari | Samesies! I wanna see their play too! |
| Izumi | I’m glad to hear that. I was just about to ask your thoughts on it, but it seems like I already have your OK. |
| Kazunari | More than OK! We’ve gotta hype them up! |
| Izumi | Oh, one more thing; Kuraki-sensei was also hoping that, if you guys have the time, you could also check out their rehearsals, even if only for a small while. |
| Tsuzuru | Of course! I really want to go, so I’ll let you know if I can afterward. |
| Kazunari | I really wanna go too! …But as much as I do, work probs’ has to come first. Sorry… |
| Izumi | It’s not like you're required to, so don’t worry about it. Having a huge workload already sounds tough, so please don’t push yourself. |
| Kazunari | Yeah. Thanks, Director-chan. |
| |
| |
| *DOOR CLOSES* |
| Tsuzuru | Is work that piled up for you these days, Miyoshi-san? |
| I did have you take on that flyer commission I told you about before… I feel bad, with the timing and all… |
| Kazunari | Aw, what are you saying~ It’s not something you have to feel bad about at all! |
| I took it because I wanted to, so if anything, I’m grateful. And I’m making sure I’m not biting off more than I can chew, so don’t mind it. |
| Besides, I know I said work should come first, but I’ve been feeling stuck with the designs for that very flyer job. |
| I was given loads of time for it anyway, so I figured I should make as many rough drafts as I could. |
| Tsuzuru | Well, if there’s anything I can help with, let me know. I’m the one who told you about the offer, after all. |
| Kazunari | For realsies!? TBH, I was just thinking earlier that I’d usually want to get your perspective in the middle of these sort of things~ |
| But if we’re gonna do that, you’re gonna need to look through the script too so we should check with the other troupe if that’s okay. |
| Tsuzuru | Got it. |
| … Also, on second thought, how about we go to Fuko High after all? |
| I’m not saying you should force yourself if you really can’t, but when you’re stuck in one place, I think it’s exactly why necessary to go for a change of pace and do something unrelated to work. |
| It’s even possible that you’ll suddenly come up with new ideas while you’re at it too. |
| Kazunari | … That’s important too, you’re right. |
| Well! I was starting to feel like I should take work priority first, but maybe I’ll go with you after all, Tsuzuroon! |
