Our Story Goes On!

Izumi Mitsuki: Today, we’d like to hold a roundtable discussion with everyone here on the theme of “ourselves from ten years ago”!

Momo: Yay! Let’s do this!

Izumi Iori: Looking forward to it.

Rokuya Nagi: “Let’s talk about the me from 10 years ago!”

Nanase Riku: I’m really curious about Kujo-san’s life ten years ago. We’re the same age after all!

Kujo Tenn: We sure are the same age.

Natsume Minami: What’s the biggest age gap in this group? The oldest here is…

Yuki: Wouldn’t it be Ryuunosuke-kun?

Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: Huh? Are you joking?

Yuki: Sure.

Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: Oh, then I guess it’s me.

Kujo Tenn: And you’re just going along with it?

Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: That’s right. Yuki-san is my senior after all.

Yuki: Ryuunosuke-kun lets me get away with anything. I love you so much.

Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: Thank you very much.

Momo: What the hell! You’re already flirting with someone from another group~! I’m gonna get jealous~!

Yuki: Hey now, you know, that thing.

Momo: What do you mean “that thing”?

Nikaido Yamato: Just tell him you love him. Why are you getting shy now of all times?

Yuki: Give me a second. Sometimes I genuinely get really shy depending on my mood…

Momo: I’ll wait.

Izumi Mitsuki: Let’s keep things moving while we wait. So how it works is the ones who debuted earlier are the seniors and the others are juniors, right?

Nanase Riku: Yes!

Momo: Alright, let’s hear it from Nanase Riku-kun.

Nanase Riku: I’m a younger senior. Right, Touma-san?

Inumaru Touma: Huh? Oh, because ŹOOĻ debuted after you guys?

Nanase Riku: Exactly! You’re an older junior.

Yaotome Gaku: Didn’t Inumaru debut earlier though?

Kujo Tenn: He did.

Inumaru Touma: That’s right.

Nanase Riku: Then ŹOOĻ doesn’t have any older juniors. Isumi-kun is younger, and Natsume-san debuted early so…

Isumi Haruka: What about Torao?

Nanase Riku: Maybe!?

Mido Torao: So you’re… Nanase-senpai?

Yotsuba Tamaki: Me too! I’m a senior too!

Mido Torao: Yotsuba-senpai.

Kujo Tenn: Wait. Can I say something too?

Nikaido Yamato: What? Why are you staring at me like that…

Kujo Tenn: I’m younger than you but I’m still your senior, right?

Nikaido Yamato: Well, yeah.

Kujo Tenn: Then call me “senpai.”

Nikaido Yamato: Kujo-senpai.

Kujo Tenn: You too.

Izumi Mitsuki: Kujo-senpai. Honestly, Kujo really does feel like a senior. You’ve always been so kind.

Rokuya Nagi: I’m an older junior too. Should I call you Kujo-senpai?

Kujo Tenn: I think you should do whatever you want forever, Rokuya-san.

Rokuya Nagi: Thanks! I admire you from the bottom of my heart.

Natsume Minami: I see………. Then I’m actually Rokuya-san’s senior in terms of career.

Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: You might even be the most senior here.

Natsume Minami: Then could you call me “senpai”?

Rokuya Nagi: Natsume-paisen.(1)

Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: Minami-senpai!

Natsume Minami: Not bad.

Izumi Mitsuki: Tsunashi-san acting like a junior is kinda cute. Wait, MEZZO”, what’cha doing messing around over there?

Yotsuba Tamaki: We’re not. I’m in a bit of a pickle.

Osaka Sougo: It’s okay. Just let me tie it up.

Izumi Mitsuki: What are you even talking about? Pay attention over here.

Yotsuba Tamaki: There’s this thread stickin’ out of my sleeve, it keeps unraveling every time I pull iiiiiit.

Yaotome Gaku: Oh yeah, that happens.

Yotsuba Tamaki: It does!

Osaka Sougo: Tamaki-kun, don’t move. You’ll be fine once I tie it up…

Inumaru Touma: You’re really skilled, Sougo.

Yotsuba Tamaki: You done yet?

Osaka Sougo: Just a little more.

Natsume Minami: I have a stapler, do you want to use it?

Yotsuba Tamaki: That stapler’s super cute! Lemme see!

Osaka Sougo: Tamaki-kun, can you hold still?

Yotsuba Tamaki: What? Hey, Sou-chan look, it looks like a snake.

Osaka Sougo: I told you not to move.

Yotsuba Tamaki: Sorry…

Osaka Sougo: Oh well. Let’s just leave it like this.

Yotsuba Tamaki: But this part still bothers me…

Osaka Sougo: It wasn’t bothering you a second ago, was it? Ah, that long turtle-shaped stapler is lovely.

Natsume Minami: Thank you. It’s a snake.

Yuki: I love you so much, Momo.

Momo: GYAAAAAAAH!

Isumi Haruka: T-that scared me!!

Inumaru Touma: W-what’s going on?! Where did that come from! What even is happening!

Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: You were building up to it right? I’m glad you were able to say it without shying away.

Yuki: Yeah.

Izumi Mitsuki: Everyone’s so free-spirited riiiight? Well, I hope we’re still like this ten years from now.

Inumaru Touma: Wait, weren’t we talking about ten years ago?

Izumi Mitsuki: Oh, right, right, ten years ago.

Nikaido Yamato: Don’t go changing the topic on us. Mitsu’s the most carefree of us all (laughs)

Paisen:  Slang term for “sen””pai” (syllables reversed). Originated as a Gyoukai Yougo (業界用語) (Literally = industry word). Used jokingly among friends but I believe Nagi used it here to mock the situation (LOL). Source

________________________________________________________

Talk Theme 1 - What were you into 10 years ago?

Izumi Mitsuki: Was there anything you were really into ten years ago?

Momo: Ten years ago, huh. Ten years ago for me and Haruka were two completely different time periods.

Isumi Haruka: Yeah, probably.

Momo: I was fifteen back then. How about you?

Isumi Haruka: Seven.

Momo: So young!!

Yuki: Literally just a kid.

Izumi Mitsuki: What about you, Tamaki? What were you into?

Yotsuba Tamaki: King Pudding.

Nikaido Yamato: You’re impressive, y’know that?

Rokuya Nagi: You don’t hop on trends.

Yotsuba Tamaki: What about you, Nagicchi? What were you into before you got into anime?

Rokuya Nagi: I liked many things. Gem encyclopedias, ships, cars, trains, toy vehicles and period dramas.

Nikaido Yamato: Period dramas? That’s pretty elegant.

Rokuya Nagi: What about you, Yamato?

Nikaido Yamato: Ten years ago… probably manga or something. Stuff that was popular back then. Yaotome, you’re the same age, you know “Paradox” right?

Yaotome Gaku: Oh yeah. I liked the main character.

Nikaido Yamato: I was more into the rival.

Yaotome Gaku: Ah, that does sound like you, Nikaido.

Nikaido Yamato: You can tell?

Yaotome Gaku: We watched movies together a couple of times, so I realized you always like the antagonists and rivals.

Nikaido Yamato: That’s kinda embarrassing.

Yuki: Yamato-kun tends to sympathize with slightly twisted characters.

Isumi Haruka: I have a question for the adults here.

Mido Torao: The adults?

Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: You mean us?

Momo: What is it?

Isumi Haruka: Did you guys like those colorful rubber balls when you were kids?

Momo: I loved them.

Yaotome Gaku: Same here.

Inumaru Touma: Oh yeaahh, those things. I had some too.

Yotsuba Tamaki: People collect those super bouncy ones.

Isumi Haruka: I knew it! So they’re generational!

Natsume Minami: I wasn’t particularly into them.

Osaka Sougo: I didn’t even know they existed until I was older.

Nanase Riku: I liked them. I was hospitalized once when I was a kid and my family bought one for me. I wasn’t allowed to throw it in the hospital room, so I looked forward to throwing it as hard as I could as soon as I got discharged.

Kujo Tenn: I see. What a sweet story, just like you, Nanase-san. What about the Izumi brothers? Was there anything you were both into?

Izumi Mitsuki: Was there anything like that?

Izumi Iori: Our tastes and hobbies are quite different.

Izumi Mitsuki: We did play card games, though. And not just regular playing cards, there were some pretty unusual ones too.

Izumi Iori: Ah, that’s true.

Nanase Riku: Let’s all play together sometime.

Izumi Mitsuki: Sounds good! Meet at my parents’ place. 10 a.m.

Mido Torao: That’s early.

Izumi Mitsuki: We’re going to the candy shop.

Talk Theme 2 - “Something you can do now that you thought you couldn’t do 10 years ago?”

Momo: Cooking!

Izumi Mitsuki: You’re joking?

Momo: I can do it! I mean, I think I can!

Nanase Riku: I also thought I’d never be able to cook 10 years ago.

Izumi Iori: Don’t make it sound like you can do it now.

Nanase Riku: I can! You ate the fried rice I made the other day!

Nikaido Yamato: How was it?

Izumi Iori: I don’t think calling it “fried” would be accurate, it was simmered, or steamed.

Inumaru Touma: Ahh, I get it. It got all mushy.

Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: Why don’t you try turning up the heat next time? It might come out fluffier.

Rokuya Nagi: Mitsuki’s fried rice is delicious. It’s nice and fluffy.

Nikaido Yamato: Mitsu’s definitely the fried rice master of our group. What about you guys?

Yaotome Gaku: The best fried rice in our group?

Kujo Tenn: Isn’t it Ryuu’s?

Yaotome Gaku: Absolutely his.

Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: Thanks, that makes me happy.

Kujo Tenn: What about Re:vale? Yuki-san?

Yuki: That’s right

Momo: My darling’s fried rice is super good!

Yuki: Thank you. What about ŹOOĻ?

Inumaru Touma: I wonder…?

Isumi Haruka: Probably Touma? His fried rice’s actually pretty good nowadays.

Mido Torao: Mine’s gotten pretty good too.

Isumi Haruka: Stop bullshitting. You’ve never made fried rice.

Mido Torao: I have. I stir-fried frozen fried rice the other day.

Natsume Minami: That hardly counts as cooking.

Mido Torao: You think so? Anyways, changing the topic, Minami’s pepperoncino was really delicious.

Inumaru Touma: Yeah, it was great. Even though you whipped it up real quick.

Isumi Haruka: It was a little spicy for me. But still good.

Natsume Minami: Thank you.

Izumi Mitsuki: So who’s the best pan flipper?

Inumaru Touma: Probably me or Mina.

Isumi Haruka: Touma’s really good at it. It looks cool.

Inumaru Touma: You mean the tossin’ part?

Isumi Haruka: Yeah. Like, you’re all concentrated and stuff and then bam.

Mido Torao: That does look cool.

Natsume Minami: It is. Very much so.

Inumaru Touma: How come you guys are not bashful about it!? You’re praising me a lot!

Isumi Haruka: …Not really…

Mido Torao: I wasn’t praising you or anything…

Natsume Minami: Just comparatively speaking.

Inumaru Touma: Yeah, yeah. Just you wait, I’ll flip some fried eggs for you anytime you’re in a bad mood.

Isumi Haruka: You’re gonna carry a frying pan around or what? Wait, what were we talking about again?

Yuki: What was it… dumplings?

Momo: Fried rice, darling.

Kujo Tenn: Things you couldn’t do 10 years ago but can now.

Momo: Right, right. Tenn-chan, what about you?

Kujo Tenn: Being an idol, I guess.

Momo: Of course!

Izumi Mitsuki: Oh I’m sure!

Kujo Tenn: Though I didn’t think it was impossible. I don’t mean to be arrogant, but it was something I absolutely had to achieve.

Nanase Riku: Something you had to achieve?

Kujo Tenn: I’m being quite hyperbolic. Though I can’t quite put it into words.

Izumi Iori: How very stoic.

Izumi Mitsuki: I feel the same! I didn’t want to think it was impossible, but I wondered if it might be. Sougo, you feel the same way, right?

Osaka Sougo: Yes. I never thought I’d be able to compose music myself.

Nanase Riku: Sougo-san, you’re so cool! You’re amazing!

Osaka Sougo: Thank you.

Yotsuba Tamaki: You worked super hard. I’m glad you did.

Osaka Sougo: Yeah. What about you, Tamaki-kun?

Yotsuba Tamaki: Being five minutes early.

Nikaido Yamato: You’re actually doing that now!? Seriously!?

Yotsuba Tamaki: About 50% of the time.

Nikaido Yamato: That’s impressive! You’ve really grown up…

Izumi Iori: I see. So you only do it for MEZZO" work and not IDOLiSH7, which is why we hadn’t noticed.

Nanase Riku: Iori, you’re acting like a scary senior.

Yuki: Are you talking about us?

Nanase Riku: Re:vale-san aren’t that scary.

Momo: Awesome! Your love meter went up! Thank you!

Izumi Mitsuki: It never went down in the first place. What about you two? Anything you couldn’t do before but can now?

Yuki: Personally, I think it’s amazing that I somehow managed to lead a normal life.

Momo: According to Yuki himself.

Yuki: Yeah. I never thought I’d be able to make a living ten years ago.

Momo: And now you’re a celebrity! Yuki, you’re amazing~!

Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: What about you, Nagi-kun? Anything you can do now?

Rokuya Nagi: I can wake myself up in the morning now.

Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: You’re such a prince.

Nanase Riku: Totally a prince. Did you have someone wake you up before?

Rokuya Nagi: Yes. Though ten years ago… At nine years old, I may have already started waking up alone.

Inumaru Touma: What about you, Yaotome? Though you’re the kinda guy who could always do anything.

Yaotome Gaku: Not really.

Inumaru Touma: Like what? Is there something you managed to overcome?

Yaotome Gaku: How do I word this… I got better at speaking honestly with my family.

Inumaru Touma: Ah… your dad?

Yaotome Gaku: Yeah. Just a little.

Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: I think you were always honest. But yeah, you’re definitely in a better place now.

Kujo Tenn: Maybe the president became more honest too. Or maybe he just mellowed out.

Natsume Minami: Isumi-san, what about you? Is there something you can do now?

Isumi Haruka: I can eat the veggies I used to hate now.

Mido Torao: That’s cute.

Izumi Mitsuki: Good job! I’m sure the veggies are happy too.

Isumi Haruka: Yay.

Yuki: When will you be able to eat them, Momo?

Momo: Waaah! I’ll try my best!

Yuki: It’s fine. I’ll eat them for you anyways.

Talk Theme 3 - “If you were to send a fan letter to yourself 10 years in the future”

Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: A fan letter to myself 10 years from now… what would I even say…

Yaotome Gaku: Something like “You’ve grown up so much, good for you,” maybe?

Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: Wait, this implies I still have room to grow taller (laughs)

Kujo Tenn: Ryuu, you’re already plenty handsome. What happens if you level up even more?

Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: Maybe I’ll actually become sexy?

Momo: Wait!? I don’t think text alone could convey what’s happening here!? You’re saying the word “sexy” while you look so pure and innocent…!

Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: Ahaha. Now I’m getting embarrassed.

Momo: I just wanna hug you… and you’re already sexy so don’t worry about it…

Yotsuba Tamaki: Momorin’s acting like a mom.

Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: Still, I’ll go with that as a bit of a reminder. “Tsunashi Ryuunosuke ten years from now, good job on properly becoming sexy!”

Kujo Tenn: Well done. (starts clapping)

Yaotome Gaku: Nice. You’ve always been doing good.

Nanase Riku: What about you, Iori? Got anything to say? A fan letter to your future self?

Izumi Iori: “You haven’t made a single mistake since your debut, that’s impressive. Please keep it up.”

Izumi Mitsuki: Whoaaaa!!

Rokuya Nagi: So cool!

Yotsuba Tamaki: Wait a sec?! You didn’t make a single blunder?! Since that time?!

Nikaido Yamato: Oh right! that was before debut!?

Inumaru Touma: You guys look invested in this.

Nanase Riku: So you haven’t messed up since then. That’s amazing, Iori…

Izumi Iori: Well… I’m not entirely sure.

Nanase Riku: You’re not sure.

Izumi Iori: I’m starting to lose confidence now. Well, anyways, I guess that’s how it is. What about ŹOOĻ?

Inumaru Touma: Tora, you’re good at these sorta things. Since you like yourself and all.

Mido Torao: Well, yeah.

Inumaru Touma: So what kinda fan letter would you send?

Mido Torao: Hmm…“Please stay just the way you are”?

Isumi Haruka: Soft. You’re way too soft on yourself.

Mido Torao: Ahaha, that’s true. What about you, Minami?

Natsume Minami: Hmmmmm? I wonder… “Are you maintaining your figure?”

Inumaru Touma: OH, you’re way too strict on yourself.

Isumi Haruka: Good.

Natsume Minami: Also, “do you still have enemies?”

Nikaido Yamato: What the, that’s kinda scary…

Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: So you want to be invincible. That’s pretty cool.

Natsume Minami: What? Ah…Tha-... Huh? Isn’t that obvious?

Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: W-what? Did I say something weird?

Natsume Minami: No, that’s not it! I just wanted to say thank you, but I felt like I had to act “invincible” since you called it cool… Yeah, that came out weird, wow, that’s embarrassing…

Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: You’re cute.

Rokuya Nagi: Guilty.

Inumaru Touma: Guilty.

Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: What?

Natsume Minami: Guilty. Whew, that surprised me. What about you two, Isumi-san and Inumaru-san?

Isumi Haruka: What…?

Inumaru Touma: What’s wrong, Haru?

Isumi Haruka: I wonder, nothing really… maybe… “Did you make friends?”

Yotsuba Tamaki: You did!

Izumi Iori: You’re fine, have confidence.

Isumi Haruka: You guys are in the same-age category though.

Yotsuba Tamaki: Huuuuh!?

Kujo Tenn: Let’s be friends.

Isumi Haruka: What!? Ah… okay… then…let’s start off as friends…

Nanase Riku: Start off as friends? Are you aiming for something beyond that?

Isumi Haruka: What? Uhhhh, rivals?

Nikaido Yamato: Nice, that’s totally my thing. I like rivals.

Isumi Haruka: Uh, thanks I guess.

Inumaru Touma: Good for you, Haru.

Isumi Haruka: Shut up. What about you, Touma? What would you write to your future self?

Inumaru Touma: Hmm… “I never thought you’d end up dating a big shot like that.”

Momo: Huhhhh!? Who!?

Isumi Haruka: How big are we talking!?

Mido Torao: Me?

Rokuya Nagi: Perhaps me?

Natsume Minami: Both of you are “big” in your own ways.

Yaotome Gaku: Other people might get big in that time frame though.

Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: Right, like a big-name host.

Yotsuba Tamaki: Like Mr.Shimooka.

Izumi Mitsuki: We’re gonna get stuck in a loop at this rate! At least name one of us for the fanservice!

Nanase Riku: Touma-san, who’s a current big shot you’d want to date?

Inumaru Touma: You’re pretending you’re handing me a curveball but that’s a total straight shot, this is super hard to answer y’know?

Nanase Riku: Then choose between me and Isumi-kun.

Inumaru Touma: Why’d you narrow it down?!

Isumi Haruka: Wait, no way, don’t set me up for rejection! Even though we’re talking about 10 years from now!

Inumaru Touma: To my future self: “Make sure to handle everyone carefully.”

Isumi Haruka: That’s cheating!!

Nanase Riku: Ahaha!!

Momo: You wrapped that up nicely!

Mido Torao: Did he, though…?

______________________________________________________

Talk Theme 4 - “If you were to make plans for 10 years from now?”

Izumi Mitsuki: Alright, last one, make a plan for 10 years from now.

Izumi Iori: A plan for 10 years from now? For each of us individually?

Nanase Riku: Why don’t we do something together? Let’s all meet up on this same day, 10 years from now!

Yaotome Gaku: That sounds fun!

Isumi Haruka: Do you think everyone will actually be able to be there? Like, I mean, will we still be in touch by then…?

Tenn Kujo: We will. Let’s make sure we stay connected.

Isumi Haruka: Yes… wait, no, I mean, sure I guess.

Yotsuba Tamaki: Why’d you take that back? Are you guys in ŹOOĻ tryin’ to act scary and nonchalant or something?

Isumi Haruka: We wanna be intimidating.

Yotsuba Tamaki: You’re not intimidating. TRIGGER was way scarier.

Tenn Kujo: Could you please not say things that cause misunderstandings?

Yotsuba Tamaki: No, no, I mean like teachers! You’re strict and proper!

Nanase Riku: I was actually really scared of Re:vale. When I first met them.

Inumaru Touma: Seriously?

Nanase Riku: Yeah! They pulled this prank where they pretended to be mean seniors.

Mido Torao: That’s terrifying…

Momo: That did happen! We were trying to make you laugh, honest!

Nikaido Yamato: And it was straight-up scary. You should think things through.

Yuki: Sorry.

Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: Re:vale are always kind, wonderful seniors though.

Momo: Ryuu-chan! I love you so much!

Yuki: Cut Yamato-kun’s line and bold Ryuunosuke-kun’s.

Natsume Minami: Please make one of my lines bold too.

Inumaru Touma: Sure. Go ahead, say something.

Natsume Minami: A long, thin turtle stapler.

Mido Torao: That’s what you went with? (laughs)

Osaka Sougo: Ah, that’s my joke. I’m happy.

Natsume Minami: I took the liberty of using it.

Osaka Sougo: Please, feel free to use it anytime.

Natsume Minami: I’m not sure it has that much replay value.

Osaka Sougo: Ah… sorry for overestimating it.

Yaotome Gaku: You two are so polite. What a classy exchange

Tenn Kujo: What does “classy” even mean to you Gaku?

Yaotome Gaku: Clean and pleasant.

Tenn Kujo: You said the same thing about a soy sauce dispenser that came with the steamed dumplings we had before.

Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: And about a white dove preening its feathers.

Yaotome Gaku: And both things are classy.

Natsume Minami: What about this stapler?

Yaotome Gaku: Cute.

Natsume Minami: Isn’t it?

Inumaru Touma: Now that you mention it, the eyes are round and adorable.

Rokuya Nagi: I want one for myself now. Where did you get it?

Natsume Minami: Secret.

Izumi Iori: May I take a quick look?

Yotsuba Tamaki: Whoa, you’re leaning in for once.

Izumi Iori: I was just curious about how “refined” it is.

Nanase Riku: Ah, it’s cute! Iori, you usually like- Don’t like stuff like this, right?

Inumaru Touma: You sure corrected yourself quickly.

Nanase Riku: He glared at me…

Izumi Mitsuki: Hey!! Can we get back to the 10-year plan!?

Yotsuba Tamaki: Yeah! Let’s do something with this stapler!

Natsume Minami: Will it even last 10 years!?

Yuki: Like a field trip scrapbook?

Mido Torao: We could write letters to our future selves…

Rokuya Nagi: Alright! Then we bind them together with this stapler…

Osaka Sougo: And publish it in 10 years?

Yuki: And sell it.

Momo: You’re actually thinking about business, good job!

Izumi Iori: Or we could all gather and read them together.

Nanase Riku: Let’s make little notebooks and exchange them!

Izumi Iori: We already figured out a plan, please don’t throw it out of the window.

Nanase Riku: I wanna use the stapler! I wanna go click-click.

Nikaido Yamato: Should we go buy origami paper or something? Wait, our manager already has some?

Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: Ours too!?

Momo: Same here!?

Isumi Haruka: What are our managers up to!?

Osaka Sougo: Is it a secret…? I’m curious…

Yotsuba Tamaki: That’s hilarious. They pulled out a ton of origami paper.

Izumi Iori: Great. We can make lots of notebooks.

Nanase Riku: Yay! Let’s make them and exchange them with everyone!

Isumi Haruka: Sounds fun! Let’s put them in a can, bury it and dig it up in 10 years. Y’know, like a time capsule!

Izumi Iori: Where would we bury it?

Yotsuba Tamaki: Where? Some agency building that wouldn’t get demolished…

Osaka Sougo: Tamaki-kun!

Isumi Haruka: What about the Izumi house?

Izumi Iori: My house?

Izumi Mitsuki: Yeah, that’s fine.

Izumi Iori: It is?

Izumi Mitsuki: Why not?

Nikaido Yamato: Alright, then we’ll gather to dig them up in 10 years.

Isumi Haruka: What if we’re no longer getting along by then? That’d be awkward…

Nanase Riku: Natsume-san would never let that happen, right?

Natsume Minami: Why do you say that?

Nanase Riku: Because we’ll hold your snake hostage.

Mido Torao: Oh, we can put that in the can too.

Rokuya Nagi: OH! That poor crocodile…

Natsume Minami: It’s a snake. Um, that’s my important child.

Nikaido Yamato: Alright, give it back! Riku, I’ll trade you this.

Nanase Riku: Ah! A tulip! You made this out of origami paper?

Yuki: Here, take mine too.

Nanase Riku: Wow! A crane!

Izumi Iori: The neck is bent in a very strange way.

Momo: Yuki’s crane looks so wobbly, so cuuute!

Isumi Haruka: I’ll make something too! I’m sure we’ll enjoy seeing them when we open the can again!

Rokuya Nagi: I’ll make a paper airplane.

Inumaru Touma: I can make a frog! Got any green paper?

Mido Torao: Yeah, I even have metallic ones.

Inumaru Touma: Nice! Sounds durable!

Woman A: They’re gonna be so soft and calm together, as if they’re chatting in a stylish café, you get it?

Woman B: I totally do! With chill, moody background music playing~

Woman A: Totally~ I can’t wait for the web special!

..

Inumaru Touma: And we are in…?

Osaka Sougo: I wonder where we are…

Izumi Iori: (This flow of events is….)

Natsume Minami: (They actually pranked us, didn't they….)

Izumi Iori: We were brought here without being told the destination, but…

Natsume Minami: Where exactly are we right now?

Osaka Sougo: (Hm? Natsume-kun just gave me a look….)

Osaka Sougo: (Ah, cue cards! Should I read it?)

Osaka Sougo: Um, “Today, we’ve rented out Mannan Sand Field for the web special leading up to the music show!”

Osaka Sougo: “After rigorous training, the big day is almost here. Today, to deepen the bond between the four of you even more, you’ll work together to complete a mission!”

Clap clap clap…!

Inumaru Touma: A bond? A mission? In this place?

Izumi Iori: More importantly, they rented out this entire vast area…

Osaka Sougo: They’re serious… But why sand?

Natsume Minami: Perhaps they chose a location closely resembling a desert to match the theme.

Osaka Sougo: Ahh, that makes sense!

Osaka Sougo: There seem to be some boxes scattered all over the sand. I wonder if we’re doing a treasure hunt?

Izumi Iori: We’ve done that plenty during show rehearsals supposedly to deepen our bonds. There was no need to come all the way out here…

Inumaru Touma: Though practice is pretty individualistic, ain’t it? So maybe they want us to know each other even better through a shared task.

Natsume Minami: Hehe, I don’t dislike surprises like this. They must have planned this quite far in advance since they managed to rent out this entire place.

Osaka Sougo: I’m kind of happy too. It feels like a present just for us.

Izumi Iori: A present… Well, we have been doing nonstop lessons. It might actually be a nice change of pace.

Inumaru Touma: Yeah. Let’s just relax and enjoy ourselves today since we’re already here!

Osaka Sougo: Yeah! I’m starting to feel excited.

Natsume Minami: Then shall we begin our first collaborative task? Let’s all read the staff’s comment together.

Natsume Minami: Ready…?

Izumi Iori, Osaka Sougo, Natsume Minami & Inumaru Touma: “First, please watch this video!”

To be continued…

Yes, Minami explicitly says “秘密の夜” which directly translates to Secret Night. Next level TRIGGER oshi work.

I know Flins dipped out after Nod Krai Act 6 to meet up with Illuga but I cannot prove it 🤨

Nanase Riku - Problem Solved! Worry Busters Rabbit Chat

Please note that I am not a professional translator and I'm only doing this to share the side materials to those who cannot access them, if you notice any mistakes please let me know nicely. Enjoy!

Nanase Riku: Yuki-san! Thank you so much for today ✨

Nanase Riku: Thank you for your guidance too, I think I can finally make that thing 😆

Yuki: You’re welcome, Riku-kun. I’m glad I could help you even if I was just following instructions.

Yuki: And thanks for all that tea. I gave some to everyone at the office and they were thrilled.

Nanase Riku: I’m glad!

Nanase Riku: I never thought I’d hit so many jackpots at the vending machine so I’m glad you took them off my hands 💦

Yuki: Maneko-chan did mention that you hit jackpots left and right, but seeing it in person was really impressive.

Nanase Riku: Iori told me not to go near anything with a prize attached because I’d probably empty it out 😂

Nanase Riku: I never thought that would happen so often but… I think I’ll stay away from them for a while LOL

Yuki: It was a nice little break for everyone after working though.

Yuki: Even Nagi-kun had a big beautiful smile.

Nanase Riku: Yeah!

Nanase Riku: Nagi was crazy flustered because he couldn’t braid properly LOL

Yuki: I didn’t know whether to laugh or panic when he started cursing the world.

Nanase Riku: I was relieved to see Nagi back to his usual cheerful self >u<

Yuki: Oh yeah, you said your gacha luck was incredible at the vending machine, right?

Yuki: Can I ask for your help with that next time?

Nanase Riku: Wait, you play gacha games!?

Yuki: I started playing that bus game Ban and Tamaki-kun play a lot.

Nanase Riku: Oh! The puzzle game where you pick up people waiting for the bus!

Yuki: Right now you can pull three times every day for free.

Yuki: I want to pull the “High Octave” item.

Nanase Riku: That sounds super powerful! 😮

Yuki: Apparently it doubles your puzzle score when you equip it.

Yuki: I want to surpass Ban and show off a little.

Nanase Riku: Got it! I’ll spin for you anytime you want! >:)

Nanase Riku: I’ll store luck in my right index finger 🔥

Yuki: You can do that?

Nanase Riku: Probably? LOL

Nanase Riku: I always use my pinky to press buttons! 🤘

Yuki: That’s convenient.

Yuki: Though I can’t tell which finger you’re gonna use with that emoji.

Nanase Riku: Ah, that’s true! 😂🤘🤘

Hey, @dualthesol, just wondering...

Do you think Fonon ever really knew just how many times Scion was about one step away from sacrificing his entire existence to stabilize her before (and, honestly, after) the time she found him about to actually do it and stopped him?

[deveroux]

Alright, after debating with myself for it, I finally bought my pass for the two HiGH TENSiON FUSiON!!! streams.

[deveroux]

Alright, finished poking around at stylesheets from old layouts to make this account look right and to make all of my old DW accounts look right. I even poked at the one for ADR so it's readable on a phone. You know. For my nostalgia reading purposes...

[deveroux]

Sitting down with a nice cup of hot chocolate while I wait for the Genshin livestream...

I'm very interested in what the banners will be (of course, excluding the obvious Columbina and Zibai ones) and which phase the reruns will be in so I can plan out what I do pull-wise for my F2P account and, honestly, what I do for my main as well. Like, I know I'm going for Columbina and her weapon on my main, but if they also put Ineffa on the same phase as her, I have to see if I also go for her weapon (since I lost for it on her first run) and her C1 or if I just go for her C1 this time and stick with the Prospector's Shovel for a while longer.

[sviteer]

[deveroux]

me: "You know, I wonder if I can remember what all of my accounts even were, going just by their names."

Let's see...

I had a canon Anise (gimmeyourgald); canon Guy (guykaiser); a canon-ish? Guy, possibly younger? I can't really remember (noblekaiser); God-General Guy (reddenedjewel); canon Jade (fatheroffomicry); God-General Natalia (deathtokimlasca); canon Noir (pasuncoeurnoir)... Van? Maybe? I think? (glorysaber); Mieu

Then there was the AU Asch that I tricked @dualthesol with by not using my own icons (noblesaber); obviously my post-canon Asch (scionofhispower)...

And then, of course, there was the Luke brigade: post-canon Luke (swallowfury); my reborn as a kid but now it's ten years later and he's lived with Asch, who was also reborn as a kid, for all of this time, where they're trying to fix their Auldrant's problems without dragging everyone else back into things Luke (hymnotic); the Luke who everyone believes Asch killed after Akzeriuth, who now dresses as Asch and is horribly, horribly depressed (formerly miasmaandfail, but switched to choushindou after the move to DW); Kid Luke (originally choushindou, later miasmaandfail after the DW changeover) and his older self who grew up in the dressing room (makesomepi); the other kid Luke, who was Asch's younger brother, who everyone thought wasn't particularly special but who Luke admired, where both of them were actually Lorelei's scions but people thought only Luke was (onwingsofflame); enslaved Luke who may as well be nameless (paymentforbirth); Echoes Luke (resonates; by the way, Sol, were you the one who played his Asch, resirates?); the one whose name was Asch and who grew up dependent on his original (mirrorlocked) and his younger self (behindanimage); AU Luke with Lorelei inside of him after some shenanigans in Asch's attempt to save him post-Tower of Rem (gotsomepi); cross-dressing maid Luke, who uh... let's say serviced Gailardia and, well, any of his visitors (failbuckets); pre-Akzeriuth canon Luke (imtheambassador); Princess Lucia (lukercup); an AU Luke where there were... issues in the replication process and he ended up with cat ears and a cat tail, so he was never taken to Duke Fabre's manor (saynotobadtouch); I think a canon Luke from... definitely post-Akzeriuth, but I'm not 100% positive (fangsofhellrise); the first iteration of miasmaandfail, which was pawn Luke, who would do literally anything he was told to by literally any Guy.

Like I said. The Luke brigade.

[deveroux]

The BorW rerun banner blessed me with my second copy of the Op7 Iori SSR, so I finally, finally have my favorite Iori UR.

[deveroux]

I see Re:vale’s New Years URs continue to love my account.

[deveroux]

@dualthesol, I think there might be something wrong with me that I spent so much effort today making this old thing visually presentable for myself.

[deveroux]

My pull luck in Idolish7 is so bad, though... all I wanted was at least one of either Iori or Riku's new URs (especially Riku's, he's so damn cute in it), but of course I didn't have the luck for that...

I mean, I could have done more pulls, of course, but I also have Iori's birthday banner to think about at the end of January, and I historically have terrible luck on his birthday banner, so I want to have a good amount of stones saved up for it...

[deveroux]

Continuing my nostagia stuff, I've decided to port the stuff from my Septafonic idea over to DW so I can read it more easily...

[deveroux]

@dualthesol

Let me bless you with visions of Asch patiently teaching Aidan swordplay and how to use fonic artes...

...and Luke inadvertently getting in the way because she wants to learn from him, too. Well, and because she can't help but want to watch Asch in instructor mode.
