| Izumi | (It’s already gotten so late. I ended up chatting with Tatsumi-san for longer than I expected to…) |
| Man A | Hey hey, miss, could I have a sec? |
| Izumi | Eh? |
| (Don’t tell me I’m getting hit on at a place like this…!?) |
| Man B | Geez, I told you to stop. People will call the police on you with that kind of tone. |
| Man A | Well how do you suggest I ask, then? |
| Izumi | (Huh?) |
| Man B | Sorry, we’re just a little lost. If it’s alright, can we ask for directions? |
| Izumi | (Ohh. I see what's the matter.) |
| It’s alright. Where are you headed— |
| Misumi | Oi, you punks. Who gave you permission to talk to the lady like that!? |
| Kumon | Hey hey! I won’t go easy on guys hitting on women like that!! |
| Izumi | Wait, Misumi-kun, Kumon-kun. It’s okay, these guys aren’t |
| |
| Man A | We were just asking for some directions. |
| Misumi | Eh! Is that so~? |
| Kumon | W-We’re sorry for the misunderstanding! |
| Man B | Ahaha, it’s all good. Say, is that a leaf you got in your mouth? What’s that for? |
| Misumi | Oh! You see~ … |
| Banri | Oi, you two... |
| Izumi | (Ah, so there were together with Banri-kun?) |
| Banri | Geez, you can’t just go running off and leavin’ people behind like that. |
| Man A | A d-delinquent!? |
| Man B | We’re sorry! We promise we’re not trying to hit on her or anything…!! |
| Banri | Ha? |
| |
| |
| Misumi | You think those guys got the directions to the station properly? |
| Banri | Should be fine. It ain't too complicated to get there. |
| Izumi | Moving on though. So you guys were doing another delinquent-themed Street Act, huh? |
| Misumi | Yeah. Kumon wanted to do it together so he invited us~ |
| Kumon | And then we saw you being surrounded by those men and, well, we got worried… |
| Izumi | Fufu, oh you two. Thank you, though. |
| Misumi | But you know, those guys didn’t seem scared of us at all, even when we were talking them like delinquent. It wasn’t until Banri came and made them jump~ |
| Kumon | That’s right! It’s kinda frustrating for me! |
| Banri | I can’t exactly take that as a compliment either. |
| Anyway. What’s that in the bag you got there, Director-chan? |
| Izumi | Oh these? Tatsumi-san offered all these sweets for everyone in the troupe to have. |
| Banri | I see. It looks heavy so lemme carry it for you. |
| Izumi | Thanks, Banri-kun. |
| Misumi | Banri’s the sweet kind of delinquent, isn’t he~ |
| Kumon | Y’know, I’ve seen a delinquent like Banri before in a manga! |
| He’s normally a bit aloof, but he once helped out a poor kitty he found in the middle of a rainy day and let it have his umbrella![1] |
| Banri | What gen of delinquents have you even been reading? ‘Sides, I keep telling you I ain’t a delinquent. |
| Izumi | Ahaha! |
| |
| |
| Kumon | Hey, Director! Can we open the bag of sweets that Tatsumi-san gave us? |
| Izumi | Of course, he did say it’s for everyone, so go ahead. |
| Misumi | Alrighty! Let’s see what’s in it~! |
| *RUSTLE* |
| Kumon | Huh? These are… |
| Misumi | Cookies? |
| Izumi | Yep. Tatsumi-san heard about these cookies being tasty, so he went out of his way to find them for us in the department’s basement stores. |
| He says it’s all thanks to MANKAI Company’s work on the performance that the controversies stopped spreading, so he’s really grateful for all the help we did for him. |
| Kumon & Misumi | ...... |
| Izumi | (For some reason though, Misumi-kun and Kumon-kun don’t seem too excited about the gift.) |
| What’s the matter, you two? |
| Misumi | When I heard we were getting sweets from Tatsumi, I expected some choco sticks or lollipops, or gummies and stuff! |
| Kumon | I was hoping to get some, since he sent them the same way last time. ‘Course I’m happy about the cookies too! |
| Izumi | Ahaha. Then why don’t we prepare those sweets for next time and have a candy party when we do, alright? |
| Banri | Either way, it’s good to know that all the bash talk has actually died down. |
| Izumi | Definitely. It seems like the place has gotten much busier with so many troupes making reservations now. |
| Misumi | Does that mean we can’t use the rehearsal room there anymore? |
| Izumi | Definitely. It seems like the place has gotten much busier with so many troupes making reservations now. |
| Misumi | Does that mean we can’t use the rehearsal room there anymore? |
| Izumi | Not necessarily. He said that if we ever need to use his studio again, he can fill us in a priority slot— With a guaranteed discount to boot! |
| Plus he was told that the performance was such a hit that if we ever plan for a sequel, he said to call him anytime. |
| Kumon | A sequel!? Maybe I can actually get to be a delinquent for real next time! |
| Banri | If you want a juvie role so bad, then you’d better start working on acting with more impact. |
| Kumon | Alright! Then let’s start doing a crash course with another Street ACT right away!! |
| Izumi | (Fufu, seems like this delinquent boom is gonna last a while longer, huh.) |
| Kumon | Oh, right, Director! Why don’t you join us too? You’d fit right in as a sukeban![2] |
| Izumi | EH?! Me, a sukeban?!? |
| Misumi | In that case, I’ll prepare a juvie leaf just for you, Director~ |
| Banri | …I mean. All that’s fine n’ all, but your guys’s perception of delinquents really is too old-fashioned, y’know that? |
