[Management] Tsumugi Aoba / Chapter 6

Leo: Oba-chan, gimme~. ♪

Leo: Oba-cha~n...♪

Tsumugi: Oh? It's Leo-kun. Did you come here to borrow a book? If you are, then I can recommend you a few~. ♪

Leo: Thanks, but I'll have to pass! I didn't come to the library to read!

Oba-chan, gimme~. ♪

Tsumugi: Haha, so you came to the library to ask me for something? Alright, please wait a moment.

I'm sure it's in here... Ah, here it is. Okay, here you go. ♪

Leo: Hm? Why'd you give me a charm? And why does it have 'Safe Delivery' on it?!

Tsumugi: Eh, 'Safe Delivery'? I thought I bought one that said 'Safe Driving'. Why does it say 'Safe Delivery'?! [1]

Leo: Gah, I wouldn't know even if you asked me. Hm~, it's 'cause Oba-chan's like a clumsy girl, so you probably got the wrong one by mistake.

Well, it's alright! Thanks, Oba-chan!

Tsumugi: Ahaha, you don't have to thank me~. I mean, I'd be upset if I got a 'Safe Delivery' charm myself, so let me get you a different one.

Leo: I don't mind that much, though~.

There's this cat at the park and it looks like she's about to have kittens soon, so I'm gonna give the charm to her.

Tsumugi: Really~? So that means even my clumsiness can be helpful sometimes.

Tsukinaga-kun, please let me know when she delivers healthy baby kittens.

I have many charms they could come play with~. ♪

Notes:

'Safe/easy childbirth' (安産) and 'road safety' (交通 [安全] ) have similar kanji (if you have poor vision like Tsumugi). I tried to preserve the mix-up by using 'delivery' and 'driving'.

[Management] Tsumugi Aoba / Chapter 5

Rei: Aah, I'm soo scared... ♪

Tsumugi: Oh, is that you, Rei-kun? Fufu, you came to school in the morning today~. ♪

Rei: Indeed. Good morning, Aoba-kun.

Tsumugi: Good morning~. It's just a normal morning greeting, but it's sounds a tiny bit novel coming from you.

Rei: It's novel to me too. I say my 'good morning's at night.

Tsumugi: You're nocturnal, right~? That's not good for you, so please go outside every now and then to bask in the sunlight.

Rei: Kukuku, what a roundabout way of telling me I should turn to ash, is it not?

Aoba-kun, how cruel it is for you to have the face of someone who couldn't even hurt a fly. Aah, I'm soo scared... ♪

Tsumugi: Wawah, I didn't mean it like that at all~!

I was just thinking I wanted you to spend your time in a way that's a bit more healthy for you?!

Rei: I know. Forgive me, waking up in the morning makes me act strange.

Tsumugi: Fufu, it does feel that way~.

...Ah, Rei-kun! There's something I want you to have.

Here, these are a few days' worth of notes from class.

Rei: Hm~, did I ask you to do something like that?

Tsumugi: No, I did it because I wanted to. Umm, am I bothering you?

Rei: Not at all, I would never consider good intentions to be a bother. Thank you, Aoba-kun.

Tsumugi: No, no~, please feel free to ask me to do anything as long as it's something I can do.

[Management] Tsumugi Aoba / Chapter 4

Hokuto: Aoba-senpai, could you show me where the books on princes are?

Tsumugi: Oh, it's Hokuto-kun. Welcome to the library~. ♪

Hokuto: Aoba-senpai, could you show me where the books on princes are?

Tsumugi: On princes? We have a lot of those, so I'll show you the popular titles.

Do you happen to like princes, Hidaka-kun? Fufu, you do look like one.

Hokuto: Do I? I don't really understand why, but the club captain told me I seemed 'prince-like', too.

I'll be playing the role of a prince in a play we're doing, but I want to understand more about them.

That's why I went to the library to look into it.

Tsumugi: Fufu, Hidaka-kun's the diligent type, huh.

If that's the case, then I'd be happy to help.

I'm interested in seeing you perform, so can I come watch the play?

Hokuto: Of course. I'll see you there when the time comes, Aoba-senpai.

Tsumugi: Thank you~. A story where you play the prince sounds like something I'd like.

I'm looking forward to seeing what kind of prince you'll play, Hidaka-kun. ♪

[Management] Sora Harukawa / Chapter 5

Sora: Ehehe, Sora's glad Mitsu-chan likes games too!

Sora: Haha~♪ Mitsu-chan, Sora brought a game with him~♪

Mitsuru: Ooh, it's a handheld game? That means I can carry around my handheld in my bag and play it whenever I want!

Sora: Yeah! Sora plays handheld games all the time too, so he does the same~♪

Ehehe, Sora's glad Mitsu-chan likes games too!

Mitsuru: Yup! I love playing around outside, but I love playing videogames too~♪

And lately I've been hooked on mobile games!

Hmm, now that I mention it, Sora-chan doesn't really play mobile games, right?

I was wondering why I always see you playing on a handheld.

Sora: Hihi~♪ Sora doesn't like the colour of the radio waves that phones give off~ so he doesn't have one on him!

Mitsuru: The colour of the radio waves…? Hey hey, what kinda colour do they have? I wanna know too!

Sora: Hmm~, it's hard to explain~. It feels like Sora's the only one that can see them!

Mitsuru: Hum, that sounds so cool!

It's like you're the chosen one~. If we were in a game, then you'd be the protagonist!

Sora: Aah, the type of story where the hero's the only one who can see the dead~… But Sora's a magician, not a hero, though…

Both Sora and Mitsu-chan want to make the protagonists happy! So Sora figures that's why he feels close to you~♪

Huhu~♪ Now Sora wants to play this game right away! Mitsu-chan, let's go on an adventure! Hahihuheho~…♪

[Management] Sora Harukawa / Chapter 3

Sora: Mm~... Hm? Huh? Did Sora fall asleep?

Sora: Zzz... Zzz...

Yuuta: Harukawa-kun, wake up~. You'll get scolded if you sleep in the library, y'know~?

Sora: Mm~... Hm? Huh? Did Sora fall asleep?

Yuuta: Yup, looks like you had a nice nap. I was thinking over if I should wake you up or not.

Sora: No, thank you for waking Sora up! Sora went to the library to study.

But Sora's eyes started to close the second he opened up his textbook, so he fell asleep~.

Sora's certain that a sleeping spell was cast on him! That's must be why Sora felt sleepy~. That bothers Sora!

Yuuta: A sleeping-... This isn't a game, so I don't think anyone put you under any kind of magic.

But I feel you. Reading textbooks makes me feel really sleepy.

Hey, Harukawa-kun, were you studying 'cause they gave us homework today? I haven't touched it yet either, so how about we answer it together?

Sora: Haha~♪ Feel free! Sora would just fall asleep if he's on his own, but Sora's sure it'll be all okay if you're here with him~. ♪

[Management] Sora Harukawa / Chapter 2

Natsume: Aah, how cute. ♪

Sora: Haha~, hihi~, huhu~, hehe~, hoho~... ♪

Wawah, Sora bumped into someone~. Are you okay? You're not hurt anywhere? ...Wait, Shisho~? It's Shisho~! Hello!

Natsume: Fufufu, you're energetic as usual. Aah, I'm here to get some bread. I'll leave that up to you, Sora.

Sora: Haha~, thank you! One time, Mitsu-chan told Sora that he bought too much bread but couldn't finish them all~! So he shared some with Sora!

Hihi~, so Shisho~ went to buy bread at the school store? They have anpan and curry bread here~. Pick which one you like more, Shisho~. ♪ [1]

Natsume: Hmm~... I'm not all that interested in food, so I don't mind getting whichever one you didn't pick.

Sora: Then Sora will take the anpan! The curry bread is popular~ and also fresh out of the oven! It's so hot and soft and delicious~. ♪

Natsume: You're so thoughtful, Sora. You went through all that trouble, so I might try the anpan too. If we split them in half, we can try them both and see how they taste.

Sora: Huhu~, Sora thinks so too! It's like we're close friends~. Sora and Shisho~, the best of friends. ♪

Natsume: The best of the best~. Aah, how cute. ♪

Sora, can we go to the rooftop since it's nice out today? We shouldn't just scarf these down, so while we're at it, let's go buy something to drink from the vending machine there.

Sora: Hehe~, they have this one juice that's only in stock for a limited time! Sora will buy that one~. Does Shisho~ want one too?

Sora's glad to spend the afternoon with Shisho~! Sora's happy! Hahihuheho~... ♪

Notes:

Anpan: A type of sweet bread with a red bean filling.

[Management] Tsumugi Aoba / Chapter 3

Tsumugi: Ugh, how clumsy of me to trip over nothing...

Tsumugi: Wah- Hya-... Awawa-?

Ugh, how clumsy of me to trip over nothing...

Mika: ...Nnah? Tsumu-chan-senpai, why're ya crouchin' in the hallway?

Tsumugi: Oh, Mika-kun. I tripped and ended up scattering these books everywhere. I'm in the middle of picking them back up.

Mika: I see~. Then let me help ya.

Tsumugi: It's fine~. You just happened to be passing by, so please let me do it myself.

Mika: Even if ya say that, I ain't leavin' behind someone who needs help.

Uhh, I got all the books over on this side. Tsumu-chan-senpai, where were ya takin' these to?

Tsumugi: Waah, thanks for the help! I was on my way to take these over to the library.

Mika: Nnah, funnily enough, I was just headin' there myself.

So, let me take half. You look dizzy, so I'm worried yer gonna trip all over again.

Tsumugi: ...Then I'll hold you on that and let you carry half.

(When really, Mika-kun doesn't have any business at the library. He's a kind kid, so he couldn't leave me be.)

(Thank you, Mika-kun...♪)

[Management] Tsumugi Aoba / Chapter 1

Tsumugi: Sora-kun~? Where are you~?

Tsumugi: Sora-kun~? Where are you~?

Natsume: Ah, Senpai... Did you find him?

Tsumugi: No, I haven't seen him yet. Where on earth did he go?

Natsume: He told me he'd be killing a little time outside before our meeting started. So much time has gone by that it's already evening...

Uu~. It's impossible to contact him since he doesn't have a phone...

Tsumugi: Ah, over there! Isn't there someone in that tree?

Natsume: Eh? Sora! Senpai, it's Sora! He's asleep up there!

Tsumugi: You're right. He ended up taking a nap while climbing up a tree. Either way, I'm glad we found him. ♪

Natsume: Yeah, I'm really happy...

Tsumugi: Fufufu. ♪

Natsume: ... (Hits Tsumugi on the back)

Tsumugi: Ow?! Eh, why did you hit me just now?

Natsume: Because I, of all people, felt the same way as you... Hurry up and get Sora down from there, alright?
