It's got a fizzy, bubbly soda flavor. Why not have a stimulating taste that perfectly fits the summer season?
Summon: This is my chance to show off just how good of a student I am! Alright, I'm gonna give it my all!
Groovification: We've got jelly and ice cream… This season is really all about cold, delicious sweets. So, what should we start with?
Home: Won't you eat something sweet?
Home Transition 1: I kinda like that feeling of seeing summer come closer and closer as the temperature ticks up day by day. I get a little more into my morning runs, too.
Home Transition 2: When I invited Bucchi-senpai to my party, he was super excited. Eh, he'll just be devouring all the food? I didn't think that far ahead…
Home Transition 3: I tried following my mom's omurice recipe and made one myself. But it just won't come out looking or tasting like hers at all.
Home Transition - Login: I'm really interested in those newly released egg tarts. I'll have to buy one sometime. My favorite is when the egg has a richer, deeper flavor.
Home Transition - Groovy: Kingscholar-senpai showed me a pair of Spelldrive shoes. We really fired up chatting about sports!
Home Tap 1: I don't normally wear outfits like this, so it's kind of refreshing. Buttoning up all the way really does make me seem like an honor student, doesn't it!
Home Tap 2: I received some of Vanrouge-senpai's favorite tomato juice. It's apparently very nutritious, so it might be good to drink some every morning.
Home Tap 3: Sometimes I'll head into town while out on a run. I enjoy it because the scenery keeps changing, unlike running on a track.
Home Tap 4: Ashengrotto-senpai invited me to play a board game with him, but… I feel like it might be too hard for me to play, since the rules were just too complicated.
Home Tap 5: There's a spoon on my necklace, and my brooch is supposed to look like jelly. Don't you think they both look super real?
Home Tap - Groovy: I got so worried on whether our film was something a model student would put out… That I kept watching the video over and over again… And now I'm sleep-deprived… Yaaawn
Duo:
[DEUCE]: It's an honor to celebrate with you, Kingscholar-senpai!
[LEONA]: Good for you, Deuce.
Birthday Login Message: Hey, it's you, [Yuu]! Thanks for coming to my birthday party! Don't you think these decorations and dishes are amazing!? Look at me, getting a huge, fancy celebration like this... It's gettin' me choked up. Oh hey, also, when you're taking the pictures... Can I ask you to also snag pics of the decorations, the main dish, and the cake? ...Thanks! All right, let's get goin', then! ...Huh, we can't get started without a picture of me? Oh, I guess so. Wait a sec. Let me straighten my collar and corsage... Okay! You gotta make sure I look like an honor student in your photo.
Foothill Town and Night Raven College jointly presents: “Rediscover the local area’s charm points!”
Select an outfit that catches your eye from one of the options provided by the town’s tailor, and showcase a place on the island you’d recommend.
The long-standing pâtisserie, Bonbon Recette, will also have a birthday cake prepared for you.
Please, we hope you have a spectacular birthday on Sage’s Island!
[Main Street]
Deuce: Hey, [Yuu]. Sorry, did I keep you waiting? I'm looking forward to today!
Deuce: …Guess you can tell how nervous I am, huh? I mean, 'cause this whole showcasing some part of the town thing's something a real honor student would take seriously.
Deuce: That's why I checked out a ton of videos and made sure to study up. Since I hafta, I'm going to make sure this goes well. I hope you can help me out.
[Yuu nods]
Deuce: Thanks. Okay, let's head into the sewing room to pick out today's outfit!
[Sewing Room]
Deuce: Woah… That's a lot of clothes…! It's kinda exciting, like we're in a department store!
Deuce: I'm gonna go ahead and pick out some clothes that'll make me look like a serious student, so wait a moment!
Deuce: …I've got a white, collared shirt, a light-blue jacket, and blue slacks. What do you think?
[Yuu shakes head]
Deuce: IT'S TOO SERIOUS THAT IT'S PLAIN!? I-I guess… Hmm, this is hard. Can I ask you for advice?
1. What about this jacket with pearls?
Deuce: Pearls, huh… I don't usually wear them, but that might be a good idea!
Deuce: I'll pick out the jacket that's got pearls on the collar… And maybe a necklace, too? Yeah, this seems nice!
2. What about fluorescent pink bottoms?
Deuce: I like the sound of that, but… It doesn't really feel like it'd be much different from what I'd wear in my room…
Deuce: I think it'd be better to find something a little sharper… [Yuu], help me find something good!
Deuce: How's this!? Thanks to your helping things out, it really came together well.
Deuce: After trying out all the different hairstyles, turned out that sweeping my bangs back is what felt the best. Kinda feels refreshing.
Deuce: I'm still a little embarrassed to be decked out in pearl necklaces and a fancy jacket…
[Yuu nods]
Deuce: But if you're saying it looks good, then there's definitely no bad choices here! Okay, let's head on out to film our video.
[Sage‘s Island – Foothill Town]
Deuce: We made it into town. Mmm, that wind feels good. It really feels like summer's almost here.
Deuce: It's this way to the filming spot. …Hey, huh? The poster out front the hamburger shop's changed.
Deuce: Ohh, this must be the limited time dish my classmate was talking about. It really does look good…!
Deuce: I heard that it's really popular. Why don't we all go and try it sometime soon?
1. Let's go, let's go!
2. I can't wait!
Deuce: I remember when we tried studying there before, we couldn't get any work done at all. And we were all fired up, trying to study outside as a change of pace, and everything.
Deuce: Stuffing our bellies made us drowsy, and when we finally opened our textbooks, Ace just started droning on about some random thing or another…
Deuce: And right when I thought it'd quieted down and I could focus, Grim started shouting about how he was bored that there was no way any homework was getting done.
Deuce: But Ace got his done, somehow, anyway. Then, he just laughed at us like we were stupid for not finishing…
Deuce: …Hrrngh, talking about it brought that annoying face to mind. Let's just forget about him and talk about something else.
Deuce: Oh, we're here already, actually. I'll be introducing this shoe store today. Let's go inside.
Deuce: This shop has always taken real good care of me. That's why I thought I'd choose it as today's showcase… Oh, huh?
Leona: Huh, color me surprised when I saw some fancy getup walkin' in, but I see it's just you herbivores.
Deuce: Kingscholar-senpai!? Are you here to buy some shoes?
Leona: What, you think I came to a shoe shop to eat? I just find this place easy to deal with, since they'll just pick out something for ya if you tell 'em what you want.
Deuce: Is that so? Well, I'm not here to shop, I'm…
Leona: Based on that outfit, I'm sure it's for that showcase shoot. I don't care so long as you don't get in my way. Bye.
Deuce: There he goes…
Deuce: Just like Kingscholar-senpai said, we should do our best to not cause any problems for any of the other customers, either.
Deuce: Let's set up for the video while keeping that in mind. I'm counting on you, [Yuu].
[Yuu nods]
[Sage‘s Island – Foothill Town]
Roll camera!
Deuce: I'M DEUCE SPADE FROM NIGHT RAVEN COLLEGE'S CLASS 1-A. PLEASED TO MAKE YOUR ACQUAINTANCE!
Deuce: Uhhh… I will be showcasing this shoe store today. Please take a look, they have a huge selection to choose from.
Deuce: And, if you consult with the staff, they'll really look into all sorts of things like your shoe size, shape of your feet, and other little details.
Deuce: Not only that, they'll take into account your favorite designs or your walking habits to select a shoe that fits you perfectly.
Deuce: Also… Umm… Oh, I remember! I also recommend their shoe repair service.
[camera turns off]
Deuce: Wh-What do you think, [Yuu]? Urgh, I look so stiff.
Deuce: I'd love to explain more about their shoe repair services, but I feel like my explanation alone wouldn't do it justice… Hrrrm…
Deuce: …Oh, yeah! I was thinking I'd ask to get something repaired while I was here doing this video, so I had brought some shoes with worn out soles.
Deuce: If I used this to show how the whole shoe repair process, don't you think that'll show just how amazing the whole thing is in one go?
[Yuu nods]
Deuce: Yeah! Okay, let's go ask for a repair and if they'd let us film it. Uhhh, I wonder where the shopkeeper is…
Deuce: Oh, there they are. Excuse me!
[Deuce runs off]
Leona: Tch… Well, that sucks. Looks like they beat me to the punch while I was looking around the shop.
Leona: Hey, you better get the filming over painlessly, you hear? If you don't… You know what'll happen, right?
Deuce: Whew. I was able to get permission to film the repairs… Eh, Kingscholar-senpai?
Deuce: [Yuu], what happened…? Ohhh, I see, I see! I'm sorry, I'll finish up quickly and get out of your way as soon as I can.
Deuce: Okay, [Yuu], film the repairs for me.
[camera turns on]
Deuce: We are now at the workshop in the back of the shop! We'll now have them repair the shoes I often wear.
Deuce: Please keep an eye on just how beautiful the shoes look after the storekeep works their repair skills!
Leona: Are they replacing the soles? How are you normally wearing those for them to wear out that badly?
Deuce: Eh, is that too strange? This happens all the time to me.
Deuce: When I peeked into this store in the past, the store manager took a look at my shoes and suggested a replacement.
Deuce: They told me that "Instead of buying new shoes, if you just replace the soles, it'll be cheaper and you can wear them for longer,"…
Deuce: After getting a repair once, it just felt so comfortable to wear that I started coming back regularly to get sole replacements.
Leona: Were you in the track and field club, again? Maybe all that wear and tear comes down to how you use your feet.
Deuce: Oh, maybe that's part of it. Do you think it would wear down less if I changed how I walk?
Leona: Who knows? Can't really compare how us beastmen and you humans walk, so.
Deuce: True. But then that makes me want to ask the difference in wear between Jack and your athletic shoes.
Leona: Hah. Pretty sure you'll end up realizing that it's not the shoes that matter, but the person wearin' 'em.
Deuce: That'd be great to see…! Oh, yes, Manager? Huh, there's more sole options? I can choose one?
Deuce: This one has more cushion, and this one's grippier…? And this one's a lighter version?
Deuce: Eh, you'll let me pick my insoles for free, too? And there's a ton of materials and colors to choose from!?
Deuce: Ehhh, what should I do? Which one works best for me? Should I change what I usually use since I'm given the opportunity…!?
Leona: Hey, stop tryin' to decide between all that nonsense with that empty head of yours. Just get the shopkeep to give a recommendation, like usual.
Deuce: Ah! You're right, that's the best option… I'll go with whatever you recommend, thank you!
Deuce: …Take a look at these sneakers! My worn down soles are back to normal. They look completely new!
Deuce: I hope you all can swing by this shop, not only to buy shoes, but to also get your favorite shoes worked on.
[camera turns off]
Deuce: …Whew. That should be all, right? How was it, [Yuu], did it come out good?
[Yuu nods]
Leona: That shopkeep really knew what they were doing. Thanks to our young test subject here, I got confirmation that I'd feel comfortable leaving my shoes in their hands.
Deuce: A test subject…? Ah, but I should say thank you. Because you were here, our video project went smoothly, and I got some good shoes out of it.
Deuce: So, Kingscholar-senpai, if you're interested… Would you like to join us at the patisserie after this?
Leona: Is that why you were waiting for me to finish shopping? Heh. Fine, I'll gladly tag along as a little break.
[Sage‘s Island – Bonbon Recette]
Deuce: Woah, this shop's so fancy. There's so many sweets prepared, too. Oh!
Deuce: This must be the special jelly treat made just for me. There's whole chunks of grapefruits covered in syrup.
Deuce: [chomp] Looks like the outside is a soda-flavor. It's such a crisp flavor. Okay, next… I'm gonna try this egg pudding.
Deuce: Oh, please dig in, Kingscholar-senpai! And you too, [Yuu]!
Leona: Sure, if you insist. Oh, but before that… Happy Birthday, Deuce.
1. A Happy Birthday to you!
2. Happy Birthday!
Deuce: I-I feel a little shy having you two give me birthday wishes like this… But, thank you.
Deuce: This was a great birthday thanks to both of you. I'm going to put in my all this next year, too!
twsten starting with the la bonbonniere lineup would be weird bc cater is at like the very end of the winter months unlike with jamil on twstjp starting at the very beginning of the fall months
considering i’m temporarily back into listening to epic the musical, it reminded me of the currynoodles siren au that i’ve thought about since forever ago and never got anywhere with
it began with my old siren jamil design
then i thought of basing the au on the webcomic siren’s lament
- premise: sirens who were once human that lost their memories and then lure heartbroken people into the ocean to transfer the siren curse onto them so they can be human again (the curse is transferred through a kiss)
- in the webcomic the curse got screwed up and now the siren and the main girl are just kinda half-cursed (like they both can be human on land and sirens underwater and the girl still remembers everything)
and just for the vibes and what started this train of thought in the first place: “i will take the suffering from you” (epic the musical)
siren jamil luring heartbroken yuusha into the sea
he will take the suffering from her—
in my version of this au heartbreaks doesnt necessarily have to be romantic (for example: heartbreak through grief, or losing a friendship, etc.)
SO instead of unrequited love from the webtoon, yuusha’s heartbroken through grief over her younger sister.
yuusha goes to the oceanside to escape and was then lured by siren jamil’s siren song.
transferred through a kiss— the curse goes that the siren becomes human and the heartbroken human turns into a siren and losing their memories (the siren doesn’t regain theirs).
instead of fully transferring the curse onto yuusha, something went wrong— it kind of only half-worked
jamil is human again but yuusha is STILL human with all her memories intact
then they find out they can turn into sirens when they go underwater (if iirc they have to be fully submerged in water to actually turn into sirens so like just a splash of water isnt gonna be enough to turn them)
it’s not until later when yuusha brought jamil to her home she was like ‘oh shit we don’t know each others names’
since sirens don’t have memories of their past life, that meant that they don’t know their names
so yuusha was the one who named jamil
jamil just questioned it and yuusha was like “it means beautiful”
“you want to name me ‘beautiful’”
“/// w-well do you have any other ideas?”
(in the webtoon, the female lead names the siren based on her dead goldfish LMAO) (so i’m thinking yuusha named siren jamil either based on her ex or a celebrity or a video game character she likes 😭)
at first in the beginning, jamil just suggests that they both find another broken-hearted person to transfer the curse to, but yuusha didn’t approve of that plan.
jamil finds out later from a source that the only way to fix the curse between him and yuusha was if one of them dies so that the curse is fully realized only for one of them
however by this point, jamil and yuusha grew closer to the point jamil cared about yuusha too much (unfortunately to him)
the entire time he’d been longing to be human again, thinking he’d do anything just to be normal again, now he is having second thoughts—
—jamil would care about yuusha’s happiness above his own, him someone who’s already lost to the curse in the first place, compared to yuusha who still has a chance at living the rest of her life.
so one ending for me is a no closure ending: jamil disappears without a trace and yuusha seems to be back to normal, unable to turn into a siren anymore, as if everything had been just one long bad dream.
(^ inspired by the original hans christian andersen version where —iirc— the little mermaid turns into foam after the prince marries someone else and after refusing to kill the prince just for her to return back to normal)
i don’t really have this au fleshed out so here’s another random tidbit:
sirens stop aging when they’re turned so jamil is ??? yrs old (they’re all adult-aged here)
yuusha owns a cafe / music store
she has a regular customer who is an old woman who would always tell stories to yuusha as she serves her
this old woman talks about a relative of hers that disappeared a long time ago
