" futile. "
That what he though of you, who were cowering in fear. Seeing as you dont know your own place challenging the other hand of the ivory dragon, who choose to throw them away like their replaceable paper. Cupping your cheeks as their normal cheeky snake smile they put up regularly at the ivory dragon or you usually.
" did you learn your place now? Kneel before me. "
- Snake fruit, their is obviously would be a manipulative and an inch of violence in him. Though they mostly use words and other methods to change your opinion or beliefs, but thats very risky to do.
- The way they met you is depended on where, how, what occupation are you, status, and power. Dragon? Have. ahard time falling for you, a cookie who hates and agree with their opinion? Much more faster method to get their heart pounding faster than the speed of light.
- their manipulative tactics are.. Questionable, their words are more vague and easy to understand, they will use guilt trip and blackmail if necessary. But thats rare to do if your a higher being and status.
- their not the one who would make people avoid to interact with you, except for him. They know a cookie cant stand isolation for much, but if someone try to sway their way to you? They wont came back with all their 4 limps intact.
- Their manipulation is immaculate, you couldnt decipher if its normal or odd to say the least. As they knows how to change the topic, person, beliefs and other things that been talked about and change your sperpective or opinion on the subject.
- When your finally theirs, it felt like the gods has blessed them with something so beautiful, elegant, overwhelmingly strong, and gorgeous upon them. They wont let you go, they wont let you leave their side.
- The living with snake fruit is interesting. They will give you anything if you asked, thou freedom is depends on your behavior but ig is possible to forever lock beside them for eternity and death.
- Thinking of escaping? Dear its almost impossible. Snakes have great nostrils, incredibly fast especially in water, small and hard to see. This will go badly if it was natural inviroment but cities and villages? It would take a day or two to find you. { kinda like how harry potter talk to snakes }

rain code au where yuma sets out to go get yakou some meat buns but accidentally pisses off a wizard instead and in that same day halara brings the saddest smallest most pitious sopping wet creature to ever have the misfortune of existing into the NDA because this microscopic organism approached them mewling pathetically and begging to be adopted bc it was born in a cardboard box all alone with no one to love it and also for some reason its fur is so so soft yet hypoallergenic and it's so pettable and easy to pick up in one hand and kiss on its little itty bitty eemeny meemeny forehead forever

And that's not all.... if you order the issue from Animate you can get a clear file of the clean cover image while supplies last.
They are keeping her really busy but it's all good things.

This took a turn for the ominous. We may be about to lose Shinigami.
Tumblr media
Part of the contract. You're not her partner. Number One is.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
She can't. That's part of the contract too. She can't talk to you about Number One.
Makoto's identity means that she isn't your reliable ally anymore. He's here to repossess your shinigami.
Tumblr media
Just like she said: This is about to get really bad.
Tumblr media
No. That's not. He isn't. He couldn't be. There's no way. There is absolutely no way.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
WHAT THE FUCK.
WHAT THE FUCK.
How. What. How. Why. When. How. What.
We're Number One? Then who the hell is the old man with the chin dick? Why is Yuma so young? Did the contract do that? He isn't a homunculus; We know he has red blood.
What the fuck.
What the fuck.
Tumblr media
What the fuck.
That's how we were able to check out the Book of Death from the library. We just. Used our clearance. To do it. Holy shit, that's easy.
But how? Who the hell was the old man? A body double?
Tumblr media
Okay but when and where, tho. Yuma gets the Solution Blade direct from Shinigami. When did you meet up with Shinigami in secret to get a Solution Blade from her, and why wouldn't she have noticed that happening?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Don't look so chipper with Yuma's face, it's creepy.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Well our double sucked and I hated him. He's lucky he's dead or I would have him fired for being an heartless asshole. I still can't believe that shit he said about Yakou.
Yes, I do adapt quickly. Fuck you, I'm the boss man.
Tumblr media
Option 1: As Number One, it would be trivially easy to falsify that information.
Option 2: There really is a detective-in-training Yuma Kokohead. We konked him out and took his pants.
Come on crackpot theory. Let's roll for a 20!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
YES! WE MUGGED YUMA AND STOLE HIS PANTS! I WIN FOREVER!!!
Tumblr media
Are you talking about REAL YUMA!? Yeah, I know exactly the guy. Real Yuma is the real Yuma! I am so happy right now.
Tumblr media
XD There was no trick to it. Real Yuma's entirely sincere about wanting to sell ramen instead of put up with our bullshit.
You know what? Fair. I did knock him out and steal his pants, after all. That was pretty rude of me. I'm Number One of the entire WDO. I can buy my own pants.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Because we knocked him out and left him lying in the inaccessible back area of the storage room after we took his pants.
Tumblr media
OH MY GOD
Yuma Kokohead's background check said he was a good cook. That's what instigated the arsenic and battery acid stew we nearly killed Yakou with.
Oh my god. Of course he became a ramen salesman and makes pretty good ramen.
We need to hire him. Maybe he can help us with the "only human flesh can properly feed homunculi" problem with his brilliant culinary expertise. Yuma Kokohead may be the key to this city's salvation.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Finally, the crux of Makoto's identity mystery: Why did he go to so much trouble to enter here?
Tumblr media
Oh! Out of spite! Great. Load off my mind. Yuma, cut his head off and put it in a box.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
If Yuma dies then he leaves evidence behind that could reveal Makoto's true nature. But if Yuma drops off the face of the universe then that's that. Only one version of Number One exists.
Of course, that's a double-edged sword. We can just as well leave Makoto in here, solving the problem of his perfect immortality.
Tumblr media
Yeah. See. That's what I'm talking about when I say your problem is capitalist thinking. Rather than asking, "What can I do to help the people of my city?" you're instead thinking, "What business can I acquire to consolidate further wealth and power?"
You were never going to save this city with that attitude, my guy.

Chapter 4 and 5 Spoilers
I can't help continue thinking about Chapter 4 and 5 Mystery Labyrinth's contrasts.
These two dungeons are the only ones where we have the actual character pose as an obstacle and Yuma had to actually fight them.
In Chapter 4, Vivia continuously fought for Chief Yakou. But he still helped Yuma as well.
When Chief Yakou's disguise as Yomi was falling, Vivia fought for him. When Chief Yakou fell down, unable to continue defending himself, Vivia fought for him. Protected him.
But not only that, but every time Yuma fails to defend himself and answer Vivia, Vivia just flings Yuma's Solution Blade away from him.
Not actually killing him.
We never see Yuma actually fall down or die during their duels.
Again and again, someone defended and protected Chief Yakou. Because, if noone does, who will? And Vivia kept choosing to defend Chief Yakou.
Until Yuma and Vivia finally came to an agreement through talking.
Something that's worth noting is that Yuma and Vivia's duels feels like a conversation. A complete back and forth between the two of them to reach at a silent agreement. And Vivia encourages it during that last duel. And Yuma wanted to understand Vivia.
Also, Vivia only fought Yuma with only a box cutter. A box cutter. To a sword fight. Which, no offense to Vivia, but a box cutter isn't really a terrifying weapon especially for a sword fight.
It's true that he could slit Yuma's throat with a box cutter but it's not really much of a lethal weapon otherwise. He can't easily slit Yuma's throat with a box cutter when Yuma has a fucking sword in a sword fight. Unless he wanted to continuously cut Yuma until he bleeds to death? But obviously that was not his intention, he didn't target Yuma's body at all, plus that would require too much effort for Vivia.
He kept retreating after Yuma defended himself, giving Yuma time to reply to him. And Yuma didn't actually target Vivia at all.
A duel with words. A conversation. But not a lethal one.
A culprit. A phantom defeated. A person. A person defended. Someone else, not the culprit.
Now let's contrast that to Chapter 5
In Chapter 5, it felt like less like someone else stepping up to defend another. And more like two allies consistently keeping each other's back safe.
And looking back at it, it makes sense. Makoto's ally is himself. So only they would protect each other.
Also, unlike Vivia, Makoto brought an actual sword to a sword fight. A sward against a sword. A Solution Blade against a Solution Blade. Unlike Yuma's fight with Vivia, Makoto posed an actual threat. This isn't a duel with words that's actually just a test of resolve. This is an actual duel, a duel of resolve that may lead to actual death.
And we do see that Yuma actually falls down, flashes red, and never stand up again when he fails to defend himself from Makoto.
He actually dies.
Unlike the Mystery Phantom of Chapter 4, noone else but Makoto himself protected his Mystery Phantom.
Because who else would protect him? Except himself?
A duel with words. A conversation. A lethal one.
A culprit. A phantom defeated. A person. A person defended. Noone else, just the culprit.
It's quite interesting isn't it?

You have stolen Roguefort's heart!
Tumblr media
it seem like fate has his heart tied to a string by a witch, how dare you make him fall under his knees for you!. Roguefort wished he never fall under your curse ever again, but he cant resist your company and affection as he often found himself visiting your home ever so often, either in his disguise or when he finished a new heist. or moving into your home entirely! he hopes he can spend his life with you ever so often.
• the first time he met you, he was... Intriqued to say the least, he wouldnt even think that you would have an jnterest in witchery!, seeing as you like crystals equally as he likes shinys. He didnt judge, he would find it interesting
• he would indulge into your witchery, no questions ask, want to make a ritual? He volunteer, want to practice magic? Use him as a training dummy, need a certain crystal? No worries, he can buy or (litterally) steal it out of their hands.
• he came home often very late becouse well... His phantom bleu! The infamous jewel theif, having the most bounty on his head, and wanted in the whole parfaedia in irregular street.
• he sleeps a few minutes more, as you know, not getting sleep is bad for him. So breakfast in bed? Made by his partner? The extraordinary package! He make sure to make you somethig delicious in turn.
• he want to introduce you to latte or perhaps espresso, but he doesnt want you to be hurt or... Anything in the negative really.
• he respects your hobbies and interest, and no questions ask.
• when its new year, or someone is being loud. He would put his hands on your ears as a way to cover them as he took your whole body in a nice warmth cuddle.
Dating starts now!
• man takes you either in a very fancy restaurant that somehow he can afford or night viewing on the parfaedia main clock.
• NO IN BETWEENS LMAO-
• if he takes you in the restaurant, he would search for the quietest and make sure its the best out of the best, he doesnt want you to not enjoy it, would he?
•if he took you on a side viewing... Well he is an expert at that, he came to these spots occasionally to stop by. But his most favourite view is you of course~

Makoto Kagutsuchi :3 ? Not predictable of me at all
Makoto - Not really any of my friend group's favorite, but if it weren't for all the Makoto enjoyers on Tumblr I probably wouldn't really think much of him, so thank y'all for that. Anyway I'm still holdin' a grudge for him using Yakou as a sacrificial pawn and I will never let him live it down (oh btw the 'aesthetic' box isn't ticked I just ticked the two boxes beside it. I just realized this whoops.)

Secret Relationship (Yakou Furio x G/N!Reader)
Tumblr media
In this, just think that Yuma stays at the hotel with the other detectives.
Summary: While Y/N and Yakou are watching a movie together, they end up falling asleep together, and when the other detectives get back from a case, they find the two asleep.
"Yakou?"
The Chief let out a hum as he was reading a book that he just grabbed from the bookshelf that was behind his desk.
"Don't you think we should tell the others that we're together?"
Looking up from the book, Yakou saw Y/N, who was sitting on the couch as they went through a box of movies, looking over at him with a frown on their face.
"Yeah, but not now. I wanna wait for a little bit longer before telling them."
Y/N looked back towards the box of movies, clearly upset by his response.
"Okay." He heard them mumble as they picked up another movie from the box and looked at it.
Sighing, Yakou put a bookmark in his book before setting it down and leaving his chair to go sit next to Y/N.
"Hey don't worry, I promise we'll tell them soon. For now, let's pick out a movie to watch." He said as he sat down and wrapped an arm around their shoulder and pulled them towards him.
Y/N looked up at Yakou and smiled.
"Okay."
◇◇◇
"Chief Yakou, we're back!" The familiar voice of Fubuki exclaimed, causing Yakou to wake up, startled by the sudden shout.
Looking at the doorway of the room, the other detectives stood, looking at him, most of them were smiling while Desuhiko looked shocked.
They must have just came back from finishing the case that he assigned to them.
"Since when were you two a thing?!" He asked shocked.
Yakou's eyes widened.
"Uhh..." Was all the man could say as he looked at the group standing infront of him, then back down at Y/N, who was somehow still asleep.
They must have been really tired.
"Don't worry, we aren't judging, most of us knew for a while now." Halara responded as they crossed their arms.
"If you knew for a while, why didn't you tell me?" Desuhiko exclaimed as he frowned at Halara.
"Because you probably would have bugged them about it nonstop." Halara replied as they glared at the younger detective.
"No I wouldn't!" He snapped at them.
"Hey, can you stop yelling? Y/N is still asleep." Yakou asked as he glared at Desuhiko.
"Sorry Chief, we'll leave you two alone for tonight, we'll see you both tomorrow." Yuma said as the group left, leaving Y/N and Yakou alone once again.
"Well, at least we don't have to worry about telling them since now they know..." the man muttered before looking back down at Y/N, who was still asleep.
"Heh, you are one deep sleeper." He chuckled before softly placing a kiss on their head.
"Love you Y/N."

[BSTS] 4th Anniversary Eve ‘Prestorm’ Event Story
all chapters so long post
Tumblr media
Chapter 1
-starless lobby-
kei: Saki, was Starless able to entertain you once again tonight?
saki: Of course, I had a lovely time.
kei: Thank you. There is no greater honour than getting to hear those words from you. I would love to be able to escort you home myself, however... Regrettably there are still some matters that I must attend to.
saki: You still have work?
kei: We are having a brief meeting regarding the preparations for our fourth anniversary.
saki: It's already that time of year huh, I'm looking forward to seeing what the fourth anniversary show will be like.
kei: I promise it will be a show worthy of your expectations.
-lico walks up-
lico: Oh, Kotori-chan's here. Are you heading home?
kei: Good timing, escort Saki to the station, Lico.
lico: Excuse me? Don't go ordering me around, I was planning to do that already. I'll walk you to the station, Kotori-chan.
saki: Sorry for the trouble, Lico-san. Thank you.
lico: No worries, getting to walk with you is a treat. C'mon, let's go.
saki: See you tomorrow, Kei-san.
kei: Yes, please take care on your way home.
-starless office-
kei: You're all here already, good. Then let us begin our preparatory meeting for our fourth anniversary performance.
kasumi: Man, where does the time go~ To think it's already been four years since our renewal.
takami: It feels as though our third anniversary was only yesterday. We had all star performances for it didn't we?
yakou: Before that, for our second anniversary each team performed a show based on the same source material. Each script and song allowed each respective team to shine.
unei: And way back during our first anniversary we had the cast members and shows chosen through random tune! 
kei: They were all shows that lived up to the title of being called anniversary performances. In order for this years to be another grand success, we must focus on planning. It's already September so we don't have many days left before the performance, first—
unei: Ah-!
yakou: Uwah, what's gotten into you!?
unei: I just remembered I have a package I had to open once September came around! Uhh, where did I put it again, it should be around here somewhere…
kasumi: Um, what do you mean by package exactly?
unei: It was sent to us around Christmas time last year. There were instructions with it saying not to open it until September. I was at a bit of a loss since there wasn't any sender name, but I figured I should just wait to open it and see.
kei: .......
unei: Huh!? Wait, should I not have done that?
yakou: Obviously... Why would you naively keep such a suspicious box for so long.
unei: I-I'm sorry~! I had honestly forgotten all about it... 
kei: Let's see what it contains at once.
unei: Y-yes! On it!
-unei opens the package-
yakou: A bunch of papers...? No nevermind, these are scripts, there's three of them in here.
kasumi: And these are song demos, there's three of them as well.
kei: Three scripts and three songs then... Hm…
Tumblr media
—end
-
Chapter 2 
-rehearsal room-
ginsei: Kei, these are... No matter how you look at it Akito-san wrote this script! And there's three of them! Where did you get these...!
kei: It appears they were sent to us along with these songs around Christmas last year. It is most likely they were prepared for us to use them for our fourth anniversary performance.
ginsei: I thought so! I expect no less from Akito-san. To think that even whilst they've been away, they must've still been keeping an eye on the store...
kei: I do not think they were sent with such pure intentions. Those scripts were sent in order to judge our current abilities.
ginsei: Judge? What do you mean by that... Wait, huh? The last part of this script is...?
-Team B walk in-
ran: Oh? Kei n' Ginsei are here!
mizuki: Geh, why are you here.
kei: What business do you have here?
lico: Nothing to do with you. We just came here to rehearse.
ginsei: Rehearse? There's still time before you're scheduled in for the room.
kongou: My bad, I thought there was no one in here.
mizuki: If you're just in here to stand around then get out.
ginsei: Don't accuse us of slacking off, we're in the middle of discussing our fourth anniversary performance.
ran: Oh! Did ya just say fourth anniversary!? Is that the script for it? Tell me what it's like~
ginsei: To sum it up, it's about survival. Each script depicts characters in a life or death situation. Three songs have also been prepared, one for each script. However, these scripts... None of them have a conclusion written.
lico: What's that about? So they're incomplete then?
kei: No, these scripts are fully complete. It simply means the conclusions are intended to be decided via improvisation.
heath: By improvising…
kongou: You said they were about survival right? Meaning you won't know who will remain alive by the end of the story, something like that?
mizuki: Ooh? That sounds interesting, let's make it a massacre!
ran: Great idea!
kei: Not only the cast members, but the atmosphere in the hall will also have to change in accordance with the stage. In order to grasp the intensity of the stage and lead the story to a conclusion, each cast member's individual abilities will be brought into question.
ginsei: This is what you meant by 'judge' us then... Kei, what are you going to do?
kei: .......
kei: For our fourth anniversary performance, we shall use these scripts. This too will prove as good nourishment in order for Starless to continue onwards.
—end
-
Chapter 3
-rehearsal room-
kei: That's enough.
sotestu: Just dancing without there being any acting really is difficult huh.
yoshino: That's because the song still isn't ready yet.
yakou: I can tell from the instrumental that it'll be a great song though.
kei: We're out of time, we'll stop today's training he—
gui: Someone's approaching.
-hinata walks in-
hinata: Nice work in here, could I borrow you a moment, Kei?
kei: Whatever for?
hinata: I need you to check the order notes for the new costumes. Here it is.
-hands kei the receipt-
ginsei: Hm? Is that the guy who joined recently?
hinata: The name's Hinata, nice to meet you~
ginsei: Ah, sure... I'm Ginsei.
sotetsu: I'm Sotetsu, nice to meet you too. These two are Gui and Yoshino.
hinata: Oh so you're Yoshino! I had something I wanted to ask you once I met you.
yoshino: You did...?
hinata: You're an understudy like me right? Then how come you're going to be on stage this performance?
yoshino: ......
Tumblr media
kei: This performance won't be in our teams, but instead a mixture of all the cast members.
hinata: Oh is that so! Then does that mean I get to be on stage too? You're just doing dance routines now right? If there's no acting then I can handle it no problem.
kei: Inconceivable. 
hinata: How come you've decided that already? You haven't even seen me perform before.
kei: I don't need to have seen it to know. I've finished checking the document, I’ll take it back.
hinata: Wait a sec! Look I'll copy the dance you guys were just practicing!
-hinata dances-
hinata: See, impressed yet? This much is easy.
kei: Are you done playing make believe? That was a conceited and childish performance. It is nowhere near the level necessary to stand on our stage.
hinata: Uwah, how rude!
kei: It is pointless to discuss it if you yourself are not even aware of what you are lacking. Commit yourself to studying.
-kei leaves-
hinata: He's so high and mighty about it... What can I do to stand on the stage…
yoshino: The stage isn't something to be taken lightly.
hinata: Huh? How come you're telling me that, you're an understudy like me.
yoshino: ...Yeah, I am. 
Tumblr media
-yoshino leaves-
hinata: Ah wait... He's gone.
hinata: Hey, isn't Kei so mean? Is he always like that?
kei: That's because Kei is someone who takes the stage very seriously.
hinata: Ginsei, was it? What did you think of my performance?
ginsei: Huh? You're asking me? Uhh, well, your sense of movement wasn't that bad…
Tumblr media
hinata: Really!? Woohoo!
sotetsu: True, he did pretty well for a guy that's just joined, right Yakou?
yakou: Hm? Oh yeah, for someone who is inexperienced I guess so.
hinata: See! You think so too right, Gui? Like what the heck did Kei mean by 'childish performance' am I right?
gui: Childish. I don't know what he meant by that either.
hinata: What? Oh... Is that so…
—end

Chapter 4
-starless office-
kei: During the fourth anniversary Team C's shifts will proceed as previously planned.
kasumi: Roger~
-mokuren walks in-
mokuren: Is everyone here?
kasumi: Ah you're finally here Mokuren. We just started the meeting a little while ago.
hari: You went off to find Qu, did you see him around?
mokuren: No idea. More importantly, I have someone I want to introduce to you. Get in here.
aogiri: Um... Hello, nice to meet you all.
mokuren: This is Aogiri, he's joining as Team C's understudy.
hari: Huh?
zakuro: My this is quite... How certainly shocking.
Tumblr media
kasumi: Yet another curveball huh~ Does Qu know already?
mokuren: Nope, I'll tell him later.
kei: Aogiri... He is the one looking to be a designer for us, correct? When did the conversion become about him being a cast member?
mokuren: After testing him I concluded that with some training he'd easily get to the level needed to stand on the stage. He can sing too.
zakuro: My my, well isn't that something.
mokuren: We need an understudy, let Aogiri join.
kei: That may be your opinion as a leader, but I do not plan to frivolously increase our cast members.
mokuren: Are you doubting my judgement? He has an aptitude for the stage.
kei: First we will accept him on a trial period. Whether or not he joins officially shall be decided afterwards.
mokuren: Tch.
hari: Wait a moment. Setting aside Mokuren's wishes, what does Aogiri himself think about this? He came here to be a designer, does he have any interest in working as a cast member as well?
aogiri: ...That is true, I applied here to be a costume designer. However I'd be lying if I said the prospect of becoming a cast member didn't sound appealing. If it means I have a chance of standing on the stage, then, I see no reason to refuse.
mokuren: See, he's willing. There should be no more issues.
zakuro: Couldn't this be described as pushing your ideals onto another?
aogiri: ......
kasumi: By the way, are you working anywhere else at the moment, Aogiri?
aogiri: Ah, yes I am. It's enough for me to make a living at least.
kasumi: If you're planning to work here and there at the same time, it can be quite taxing if you're not used to it~
aogiri: Depending on how the situation pans out, I'm not against working here full time.
kei: Aogiri, you will be a trial member until the end of the fourth anniversary show. Whether you're accepted as an official member or not will depend on how you manage during this period. Keep that in mind.
aogiri: Understood, thank you.
mokuren: Ok with that settled, let's go and train. Aogiri, you're coming too.
aogiri: Huh? But I haven't even gotten everyone's names yet…
Tumblr media
mokuren: You can work that out later, we're going.
-they leave-
zakuro: Ah... The pure hearted victim is being dragged away... I feel as though I can hear him shrieking.
hari: I'm looking forward to seeing him perform since he was able to live up to Mokuren's standards.
kasumi: I'll go and inform Qu~
-they leave-
kei: ..... (sighs)

Chapter 5
-starless lobby-
hinata: Hey hey, are you the new guy who joined as Team C's understudy? I'm Team B's understudy, Hinata! I only very recently joined as well, so that makes us like classmates!
aogiri: Is that so? I'm Aogiri, nice to meet you.
hinata: Having someone else that's a new understudy like me is kinda reassuring~ 
aogiri: It has yet to be decided if I'll be an understudy though...
hinata: What, really?
aogiri: Originally I applied here to be in charge of costume design. However when I took the recruitment test I was also approached with the prospect of being an understudy. I guess you could say I accept both tests at once.
hinata: Your performance got acknowledged then? I envy you~ Y'see in my case I'm still nowhere near a high enough level to stand on the stage. I was told that I suck even.
aogiri: I'm also a novice when it comes to performing. I'm in no position to take the stage yet. I think we both have lots of room for growth, so let's do our best.
Tumblr media
hinata: Yeah, you know it! You say some nice things, Aogiri!
aogiri: Then, let's get on with the preparations for opening the store.
-time pass-
hinata: All done with restocking the flyers~
aogiri: I'm pretty much done cleaning up over here too.
-nekome walks up-
nekome: Hm~? There's two youngsters here I've never seen before.
maica: Who are you two?
aogiri: Hello, nice to meet you. I'm called Aogiri.
rindou: Yes, so I've heard. Nice to meet you.
hinata: I'm Hinata! I'm B's understudy, at least for now.
nekome: Hinata... Ooh.
maica: What do you mean 'at least for now'?
hinata: It means I plan to be up on the stage sooner rather than later. Nice to meet you~
nekome: Oo you're brimming with confidence there. I'm Nekome, let's get along. Sorry for being late to my shift~
hinata: It's perfectly fine! Me and Aogiri here are suuper capable y'see.
maica: You got ready for opening all by yourselves? It looks like you're almost done too.
aogiri: We'd like you all to be able to focus on your shows after all.
nekome: That's very helpful~
maica: True. We're still fine for now cause it's only the eve event. But the anniversary show is special, we'll need to rehearse as much as we can. Menou's already getting restless, I wonder if we'll be ok.
rindou: We'll manage, let's give it our all.
nekome: In that case maybe I'll take you up on your offer and leave all the background work to our super capable hall staff~
maica: Don't slack off. There's still things we need to do besides preparations.
rindou: We'll leave you two to it.
aogiri: Sure.
-P leave-
hinata: What I want them to see me as being capable of is my performing though~

Chapter 6 
-locker rooms-
akira: Ahh I wanna sing already~ Shows that are just dancing are boring.
taiga: I don't mind staying like this. Just thinking about the fourth anni show makes my stomach hurt. Having a show that ends in inprov every day is the peak of insanity.
kokuyou: Don't get all mopey right before the show. Are you askin' to be thrown out?
-hinata walks in-
hinata: Fuah~ All done all done. Is it ok for me to use the showers?
aogiri: I would suppose so. I'll be passing though.
akira: Hm? There's another new face.
takami: Oh have you not met him yet, Akira? His name's Aogiri. He's aspiring to be our designer and is also a cast candidate.
akira: Huuh, means you found someone with strange enough tastes to come to this store then huh?
hinata: What do you mean? Starless is the best!
taiga: Now that's a new opinion.
sin: If one is willing to listen to the creaking of their soul, then they will come to learn the shape of their shadow which sinks into the culvert.
hinata: Hahah what?
aogiri: ...Thank you. I think?
hinata: Wait did you understand him just now?
aogiri: No, not at all. I just had a hunch he didn't mean anything bad by it.
akira: Ah, when it comes to Sin's language understanding at least that much is a passing mark.
takami: This is Sin, Akira and Taiga. And this is our leader Kokuyou. My name's Takami, nice to meet you.
aogiri: You're all Team W right? It's nice to meet you.
hinata: Oh, hey Kokuyou, you're Mizuki's senior right? Tell me some stories from when Mizuki first came to Starless—
kokuyou: I've got no time to talk nonsense with you. Stick to your own damn responsibilities.
-kokuyou leaves-
hinata: Huh? Did I make him mad?
taiga: Well, it's cause we're about to perform.
takami: We should be going too.
-backstage-
saki: Good evening, everyone.
akira: Ah, Saki-chan! You're here~
saki: I'm looking forward to W's performance tonight.
akira: Yeah just leave it to me~ I'll impress you in no time.
taiga: For the guy who was just complaining about being bored you look pretty fired up.
akira: Shush you.
takami: The dance performances appear to be doing well for our publicity. Since the guests are growing more curious as to what kind of lyrics and acting will be added to such a song.
kokuyou: Heh, interesting. Kei said those scripts were gonna judge us, but he's already been putting us to the test during this eve event hasn’t he?
sin: It's time.
kokuyou: Let's show em all our performance, you too, don’t go taking your eyes off us.
