// ... Morning.
<0001>
// Last night I went to bed late, so it really sucks to wake up now.
<0002>
// Despite my efforts, my eyes won't open.
<0003>
// For a while it seemed only half my body was awake.
<0004> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} (If I'm not there... I wonder if she'll know what to do...)
<0005>
// I get out of bed, still drowsy.
<0006> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Good morning."
<0007> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Oh, good morning..."
<0008> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "You seem tired."
<0009> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Yeah, I'm pretty sleepy.
<0010> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "\m{A}-san, you look like you'll fall asleep during class."
<0011> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Yeah, I'll fall asleep for sure."
<0012> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "I'm sleepy, too."
<0013> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "You are, too?"
<0014> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Yes, last night I was thinking about a lot of stuff, so I couldn't really get to sleep."
<0015> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "What were you thinking about?"
<0016> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "How to get the student council to recognize the drama club's activities."
<0017> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Really?"
<0018> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "I was thinking about collecting signatures or something. What do you think?"
<0019> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "If I were to get a lot, the student council would be forced to consider it."
<0020> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Dealing with them isn't so easy."
<0021> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "But they're students, too. I'm sure they'll understand."
<0022> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "I don't know..."
<0023>
// I'm glad that she's optimistic now, despite the fact she was struggling so much yesterday.
<0024>
// But I never thought such a method would work.
<0025> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "You probably won't be able to collect very many signatures at a school with the way things are."
<0026> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "I mean, the drama club was disbanded in the first place because nobody wanted to join it."
<0027> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "I guess... you're right."
<0028> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "I was being a little naive."
<0029> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "No, that's not it..."
<0030>
// A wave of students ascends the hill.
<0031>
// In their midst, a lone figure is standing still.
<0032>
// And looking up at the remaining green leaves of a cherry blossom tree.
<0033>
// I remember something as I look at her.
<0034>
// Oh... I almost forgot.
<0035>
// I was thinking, if only she was there...
<0036>
// Talk to Tomoyo
<0037>
// Walk past
<0038> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Furukawa, wait here, okay?"
<0039> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Eh? O-Okay."
<0040>
// Leaving Furukawa behind, I hurry towards her.
<0041> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Tomoyo!"
<0042>
// I call out her name.
<0043> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Hmm...?"
<0044> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "\m{A}? Good morning."
<0045> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "I have a request. I'm begging you, please help me."
<0046> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "........."
<0047>
// Tomoyo looks around stealthily.
<0048> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Is that guy up to no good again?"
<0049> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "No. That idiot has nothing to do with it."
<0050> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Really?"
<0051> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Yeah."
<0052> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "A request from you?"
<0053> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Yeah, it's from me."
<0054> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "I see... you sure are a helpless person."
<0055> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "If it's your request, I don't have any problem listening to it."
<0056> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "So what is it?"
<0057> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Please change the student council."
<0058> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "I'm not sure what you mean..."
<0059> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "I'm not even on the student council yet. I'm just running for it."
<0060> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "What did you want me to do anyway?"
<0061> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Well, first of all, join the student council."
<0062> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Right away."
<0063> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "You..."
<0064> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Do you have any idea how one gets on the student council?"
<0065> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "You can't just join right away."
<0066> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "So when can you join, then?"
<0067> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "The campaigning begins this weekend."
<0068> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "But the election itself doesn't actually take place until May 9th."
<0069> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "The inauguration ceremony is the next day."
<0070> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "I see... so we'd better hurry up then..."
<0071> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "And there's something else."
<0072> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "I might not win."
<0073> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "No, you'll win for sure."
<0074> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Do you have any proof?"
<0075> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Nope."
<0076> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Thought so."
<0077> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "But once you're elected and are on the student council, will you be able to change it?"
<0078> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "About that, what did you want me to change?"
<0079> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "I want you to approve club member recruitment, even at this time of year."
<0080> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "What, are you forming a club?"
<0081> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Not exactly, just rebuilding. There used to be a drama club at this school."
<0082> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "... A drama club?"
<0083>
// Tomoyo's eyes scanned from the top of my head to the soles of my feet and back again.
<0084> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Well, you're tall, and pretty good looking..."
<0085> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "You might be good on stage."
<0086> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Yeah... I think that's a good idea."
<0087> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "I'll help you for sure."
<0088> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Well no, it's not for myself exactly."
<0089> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "What? It isn't?"
<0090> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Then, who's it for?"
<0091> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Her."
<0092>
// Turning my head, I indicate Furukawa, who's faithfully standing at the same spot.
<0093> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "........."
<0094> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Furukawa, come here!"
<0095> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "O-Okay."
<0096>
// Being called upon so suddenly, she answers frantically while running this way.
<0097> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Um, I'm Furukawa Nagisa from 3rd year."
<0098> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Thank you very much for your help."
<0099>
// She bowed with great respect.
<0100> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "S-sure... it's my pleasure..."
<0101> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "\m{A}..."
<0102>
// Tomoyo's tugging on my arm.
<0103> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Huh?"
<0104> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Can you come over here?"
<0105> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "What the matter?"
<0106>
// Leaving Furukawa behind, we're alone again.
<0107> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "What's your family name?"
<0108> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "\m{A}."
<0109> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "........."
<0110> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "That girl just said her name was Furukawa."
<0111> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Yeah, that's because it's her name."
<0112> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "........."
<0113> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Then... she's not your younger sister..."
<0114> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "No, she isn't."
<0115> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "........."
<0116> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "What's wrong?"
<0117> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "It's just that..."
<0118> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "I'm surprised you have... \wait{500}someone like that."
<0119> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "What're you talking about?"
<0120> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Well..."
<0121> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "She's not a bad person, so please help us out."
<0122> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "See? She's still patiently waiting for us."
<0123>
// We both look back at Furukawa.
<0124> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Ehehe!"
<0125>
// She's smiling at us.
<0126> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "She's not being any trouble at all."
<0127> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "I feel like she's already intruding..."
<0128> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Huh?"
<0129> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Never mind, I'm just kidding..."
<0130> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Come on, talk to her."
<0131> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Y-yeah, okay..."
<0132> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "I'm Sakagami Tomoyo."
<0133> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Sakagami-san, right? It's nice to meet you."
<0134> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "........."
<0135> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Is it fun hanging around with \m{A}?"
<0136> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Eh?"
<0137> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "I'm asking if it's fun."
<0138> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Oh... yes!"
<0139> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Of course it is!"
<0140> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Every day is really fun!"
<0141> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Is it really?"
<0142>
// ... What are you trying to ask?
<0143> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Then, do your best."
<0144> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Eh?"
<0145> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "I'm aiming to join the student council."
<0146> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "You're aiming to remake the drama club."
<0147> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Let's both face our goals and move forward."
<0148> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "You got that?"
<0149> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Sakagami-san, you're trying to get on the student council?"
<0150> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Please do your best, no matter what!"
<0151> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Because I'll be doing my best, too!"
<0152> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Sure... you're a nice girl."
<0153> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "No, not really... you're a much better person than I am."
<0154>
// You're two years older than her.
<0155> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Since you're aiming for something as important as the student council..."
<0156> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Let's both do our best."
<0157> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Yes."
<0158> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Bye for now."
<0159>
// Tomoyo went up the hill.
<0160>
// We watched her as she went.
<0161> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Thanks for your help, \m{A}-san."
<0162> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "I feel a lot better now."
<0163> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "........."
<0164> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Hey, that's not it at all!"
<0165>
// I came back to myself.
<0166> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "What's not it?"
<0167> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "What're you going to do about recruiting members?"
<0168> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Aren't things more complicated for you now?"
<0169> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "It's useless if you don't ask for her help."
<0170> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "But, I couldn't bother her..."
<0171> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Sakagami-san's got to be really busy too."
<0172> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Because she's trying to get on the student council. This has to be a busy time for her."
<0173> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "You know... I think you really overestimate the student council."
<0174> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Well, I think it's a pretty big thing..."
<0175> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Because a lot of people have joined it, and it's a group of specially chosen people."
<0176>
// This girl... really couldn't have had any contact with the student council or its staff members.
<0177>
// Though stuff like that is just a small job of sorts, isn't it?
<0178>
// I guess it's too late to explain it to her at this point...
<0179>
// Just as I'm about to give up, the bell rings.
<0180> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Oh, it's the first bell."
<0181> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Yeah, let's get going."
<0182>
// And together, we begin climbing the hill.
<0183>
// We find ourselves within a large group of students.
<0184>
// But the two of us are different.
<0185>
// This thought makes me feel good.
<0186>
// Since I'm with Furukawa, it's a bit awkward to talk to her.
<0187> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Is something wrong?"
<0188> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "No... c'mon, let's go."
<0189> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Okay."
<0190>
// So without stopping, we climb the hill.
<0191>
// And we pass right by her.
<0192>
// She didn't seem to notice me.
<0193>
// Together we begin climbing the hill.
<0194>
// We find ourselves within a large group of students.
<0195>
// But the two of us are different.
<0196>
// Thinking of this made me feel pretty good.
<0197>
// Lunch break.
<0198> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "They've been taken down after all."
<0199> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Ignore it. We can just stick them back up."
<0200> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "I don't want to put them back up anymore."
<0201> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Why not?"
<0202> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "I feel kinda sorry for them..."
<0203> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "For who?"
<0204> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "The Big Dango Family."
<0205> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "........."
<0206>
// I raise an eyebrow as I hear this.
<0207> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "... Excuse me?"
<0208> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "If they're torn down and stuck back up over and over again, it's like they're nothing more than just tools."
<0209> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} (Well, that's what they are...)
<0210>
// I guess she wouldn't be able to understand that.
<0211> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "So, I think we should just stop."
<0212> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "So what'll we do? The exposition is next week, right?"
<0213> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "If we don't have anything posted, then anyone thinking of joining would have their doubts."
<0214> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "They'd think the club's on break, or disbanded."
<0215> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "I guess you're right..."
<0216> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "What're you going to do, president?"
<0217> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Well, um..."
<0218> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "........."
<0219> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "I guess we have no choice but to keep putting these up."
<0220> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Even if we end up doing the same thing over and over."
<0221> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "I was giving that some thought."
<0222> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "If we happen to get people's attention by doing that, all the better."
<0223> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "... I understand."
<0224> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Okay, let me borrow the master copy. I'm going to run off some more copies."
<0225> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Eh?"
<0226> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "What's wrong?"
<0227> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "\m{A}-san, don't you have it?"
<0228> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "I gave it to you yesterday. I told you that was the master copy, and that you should hold onto it."
<0229> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "T... that was the master copy?"
<0230> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "That's right. Where'd you put them?"
<0231> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "I posted it."
<0232> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Excuse me?"
<0233> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Well, there were some bulletin boards where there were no posters on it yet, so..."
<0234> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Gah... are you really stupid or something?!"
<0235> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "I told you that one was the one we needed to take good care of..."
<0236> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Oh, I... remember it now."
<0237> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "I was daydreaming when I posted those. I was hoping that lots of people would see them."
<0238> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Which means..."
<0239> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "We need to draw that again."
<0240> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Yes... that's what it looks like."
<0241> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Well, get drawing."
<0242> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Okay. I'll do my best. I'll do my best and draw a lot."
<0243> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Of what?"
<0244> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Dango."
<0245> \{\m{B}} ""

<0246> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Yes?"
<0247> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Just draw one at most..."
<0248> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "It's a big family, so there's a lot of them."
<0249> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "They help each other out."
<0250> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "It's okay. There's lonely dango too."
<0251> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "He hopped on his bike and went on a big trip. That's it, let's do that."
<0252> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Dango don't do that."
<0253> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Well, every family has its rebels."
<0254> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "The Big Dango Family doesn't."
<0255> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "They may fight from time to time,"
<0256> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "But in the end, they always pull together."
<0257> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Well, let's just leave it at that, whether they're friends or not."
<0258> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "We can't leave it like that, since they always get along."
<0259> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "That's why..."
<0260> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "........."
<0261> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "That's why I like them..."
<0262> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Because the Big Dango Family... every one of them gets along together."
<0263>
// It seems as though she likes them for more than their cuteness.
<0264> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "... I see."
<0265> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Yes, that's the way it is."
<0266> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Well, time to get drawing..."
<0267>
// I don't really understand why I'm getting worked up about this.
<0268> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Here we go."
<0269>
// I take a poster about 'automobile safety' off the wall.
<0270>
// I turn it around and thrust it at Furukawa.

<0596> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Yes..."

// The class rep readies herself.
<0598> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "I wanted to start a drama club."

<0601>
// Thump! The throng of girls crowded by the entrance to the classroom crumple to the floor.
<0602> \{Kyou} ""
// \{Kyou} "You guys have some nerve, making fun of someone's little sister like this, don't you?!"
<0603>
// Kyou stands up from amongst the pile of girls.
<0604> \{Kyou} ""
// \{Kyou} "Are you one of their friends?"
<0605>
// She draws close to Furukawa.
<0606> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Oh, yes, they're my friends."
<0607> \{Kyou} ""
// \{Kyou} "You're being tricked. You shouldn't hang around with these guys."

// \{Kyou} "You might catch their idiocy, and you'd never be able to return to normal again."
<0609> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "No... they're not bad people at all."
<0610> \{Kyou} ""
// \{Kyou} "........."

// \{Kyou} "Are these guys your only friends around here?"
<0614>\{Nagisa} ""
// \{Nagisa} "Yes..."

// \{Nagisa} "Umm, well..."

<0622>
// Hey, Furukawa made a friend...
<0623>
// I guess she doesn't need me anymore...

<0633>
// She's appealing to her desperately.
<0634>
// Somehow... I feel grateful and relieved.
<0635>
// Because it means not everything she did up until now was meaningless...
<0636> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "I mean... I'm very grateful... for your kindness..."
<0637> \{Kyou} ""
// \{Kyou} "Umm... are you talking about the drama club?"

<0654> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Okay, okay, fine. I guess I'm somewhat at fault too."
<0655> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "Going easy on yourself, huh?"
<0656> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "We just had a question for the class rep and wanted to talk to her alone."
<0657> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "It wasn't something we wanted a lot of people involved in, so..."
<0658>
// ... I'd like to say that we wanted to avoid you, but you might rip our lips off.
<0659> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "So anyway, please listen to what she has to say."
<0660> \{Kyou} ""

// We've taken up a lot of time... \pI guess it's my own fault, though.
<0665> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Well, perhaps..."
<0666>
// The class rep begins to speak quietly once Furukawa finishes explaining the situation.
<0667> \{Kyou} ""
// \{Kyou} "Perhaps?"
<0668> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "You should get an advisor, I think."
<0669> \{Kyou} ""
// \{Kyou} "Yeah, that's right."
<0670> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "An advisor... so, we need a teacher?"
<0671> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "That's correct. If you have an advisor, you'll be able to be recognized as a club..."
<0672> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "And they'll probably be able to give you some protection from the student council as well..."
<0673> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "That's easy enough. So all we need is to find an advisor."
<0674> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "There was a drama club last year, so that teacher should still be around."
<0675> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "That's... right. I'll start looking."
<0676> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "But... I'm pretty sure there's something else."
<0677> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Oh, what's that?"
<0678> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "You need at least... three interested club members."
<0679> \{Kyou} ""
// \{Kyou} "Well, it looks like you're okay on that front."
<0680>
// Kyou looks at the three of us.
<0681> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "........."
<0682>
// Furukawa stiffens.
<0683> \{Kyou} ""
// \{Kyou} "How about we go to the staff room?"
<0684> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Please wait... a second!"
<0685> \{Kyou} ""
// \{Kyou} "What's wrong?"
<0686> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Well, um..."
<0687> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "The number of interested members ..."
<0688> \{Kyou} ""
// \{Kyou} "Eh? Don't you have enough?"
<0689>
// She looks at the three of us again. Sunohara looks out the window, hiding his face.
<0690> \{Kyou} ""

<0691> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Uh... well..."
<0692> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "I'm one member..."

// \{Kyou} "Yeah, and who else--...?"
<0695> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "That's it."
<0696> \{Kyou} ""
// \{Kyou} "........."
<0697>
// She looks over at us again.
<0698> \{Kyou} ""
// \{Kyou} "You guys just told me you were helping her out."
<0699> \{Kyou} ""
// \{Kyou} "So why aren't you club members?"
<0700> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "We're just helping her make the club. Do I look like someone who'd be interested in plays?"
<0701>
// Sunohara cuts to the chase.
<0702> \{Kyou} ""
// \{Kyou} "Sigh... you sure are useless, huh..."
<0703> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "W... well... if you only have one member... you'll probably be rejected."
<0704> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Well that's why we're consulting you. Isn't there something we can do?"
<0705> \{Kyou} ""
// \{Kyou} "I'm saying it's impossible."

<0708> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "OUCH!"
<0709> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "I was just quoting you, why'd I get slapped for that?"
<0710> \{Kyou} ""
// \{Kyou} "I saw a scarab beetle flying around."

// \{Sunohara} "I'm bleeeeeding!"
<0714> \{Ryou} ""

<0715>
// During the commotion, Fujibayashi hangs her head and begins to speak.
<0716> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "You've got three people with you..."
<0717> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "It would be best to find an advisor anyway, even if they're just pretending to be club members."
<0718> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Since there's only a few teachers left who aren't already club advisors..."
<0719> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "... I understand."
<0720>
// Furukawa gives a big nod and faces us.
<0721> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Umm..."
<0722> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Can I ask you for a favor?"
<0723>

<0724> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "As long as you don't make us into real members, it's fine with me."
<0725> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Okay. It's a promise."
<0726> \{Furukawa} ""

// Sunohara impatiently places his hand on the teacher's head and tries to make him nod by force.
<0796> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Sunohara-san, please don't."
<0797> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "Huh?"
<0798> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "We have to ask him sincerely or this won't be any good."
<0799> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "I'm sincere, it's just that my methods are a little rough."
<0800> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "If you know it's rough, then please do it properly."
<0801> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "Hey... who am I doing this for anyway...?"
<0802> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Please..."
<0803> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "Tch."
<0804>
// He removes his hands.
<0805> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Umm, sensei... What do you think? Will you help us revive the drama club?"
<0806>\{Koumura} ""
// \{Koumura} "Okay..."
<0807> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Thank you very much!"
<0808>\{Koumura} ""
// \{Koumura} "Nah..."
<0809> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Eh...?"
<0810> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "Which is it?!"
<0811> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Gramps, is there a problem? Tell us already."
<0812>\{Koumura} ""
// \{Koumura} "Hmmm..."
<0813>\{Koumura} ""
// \{Koumura} "There's a second-year student named Nishina... could you talk to her?"
<0814> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "Who's that?"
<0815> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "I got it. I'll go look."
<0816>
// She quickly ends the conversation without asking any questions as if she wants to get Sunohara away from Koumura.
<0817> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "What class is she in? That's all I need to know."
<0818>\{Koumura} ""
// \{Koumura} "If I'm not mistaken... I think it was class B."
<0819> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Okay! Thanks."
<0820>\{Koumura} ""
// \{Koumura} "Or maybe it was class C..."
<0821> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "Which is it?!"
<0822>\{Koumura} ""
// \{Koumura} "I'm sure it's C. Hmm, there's no mistaking it."
<0823> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Thank you very much. We'll be back later."
<0824> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "Practice talking faster before we come back, alright?"
<0825>
// With those as our last words, we leave.
<0826>
// As we went up the stairs, the bell rang, signaling that lunch break was over.
<0827> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Oh... it's already time."
<0828> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "I didn't even notice..."
<0829>
// We must have all been focused on this.
<0830> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "I guess we'll finish this up after school..."
<0831>
// Class 2-C. We stand beneath the plate.
<0832>
// The students preparing to go home all glance at us with suspicion.
<0833>
// When three upperclassmen are blocking the entrance, it must be difficult to get out of the room and go home.
<0834> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "You go ask, Furukawa. Sunohara and I will wait here."
<0835> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Okay."
<0836>
// She nods obediently, and then gently makes her way into the classroom.
<0837>
// She gets the attention of one of the girls and asks her a question.
<0838>
// Then the girl points towards the window.
<0839>
// Another girl is sitting there.
<0840>
// Furukawa thanks her and bows, and then walks towards the window.
<0841>
// Then she begins to speak to the girl there.
<0842> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "Hey, you."
<0843> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "You were just staring at us, weren't you?"
<0844>
// Trying to pass the time, Sunohara tries to pick a fight with a male student trying to get around us.
<0845>
// I just watch Furukawa.
<0846>
// Drawing up a smile, she frantically appeals to the girl as she gestures with her hands.
<0847>
// After a while, Furukawa's the one who's listening.
<0848>
// She nods repeatedly, listening to the calm-looking girl's words.
<0849>
// Finally, the two of them are alone in the classroom.
<0850> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "It's alright to go in now, isn't it?"
<0851>
// Sunohara asked me.
<0852> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Yeah, I guess so."
<0853>
// We go inside too.
<0854> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "Hi, we're from the drama club."
<0855>
// Sunohara gives a coercive greeting.
<0856> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Sorry for the intrusion."
<0857> \{Nữ Sinh} ""
// \{Female Student} "Oh, not at all."
<0858>
// The girl looks down as she lowers her face.
<0859> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "So what's up, Furukawa?"
<0860> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Well... um... there's a problem."
<0861> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "What is it?"
<0862> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Nishina-san wants to start a chorus club."
<0863> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "And she's in the same position as us, looking for an advisor..."
<0864> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "And so she asked Koumura-san yesterday."
<0865> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "However, at the time she didn't have enough members interested in joining her club, but now..."
<0866> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Since then, she's managed to find three members at that day too."
<0867> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Nishina-san worked very hard for this."
<0868> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "........."
<0869> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "I see... Well, that's a problem."
<0870> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Yes. We wanted Koumura-san to be our advisor."
<0871> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "But Nishina-san wants the same thing."
<0872> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "What should we do?"
<0873> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "........."
<0874>
// Furukawa stares into my face.
<0875> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "I guess we should find another teacher..."
<0876>
// I try to compromise.
<0877>\{Nishina} ""
// \{Nishina} "I looked around, but..."
<0878>
// Still hiding her face, the chorus girl begins to speak.
<0879>\{Nishina} ""
// \{Nishina} "The only teachers who aren't club advisors already are Koumura-san, and people like the principal and vice-principal."
<0880>\{Nishina} ""
// \{Nishina} "........."
<0881> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "Well that's a problem."
<0882> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "But you know, we're upperclassmen."
<0883> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Cut it out."
<0884> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Sorry for troubling you."
<0885> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "We need to discuss this... so we'll come back again."
<0886> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Please excuse us."
<0887>
// She quickly lowers her head, bowing to the second year, then pushes us out of the classroom.
<0888> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "Like I just said, we're the upperclassmen here."
<0889> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "If we just stand up to her, she'll back down."
<0890> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "We can't do that."
<0891> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "We're all equal here."
<0892> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "We all start at the same starting line."
<0893> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "So just because we're a little older than she is doesn't mean that we automatically win."
<0894> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "And also, I'm the only one joining the club..."
<0895> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "I had to lie to that girl."
<0896> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "........."
<0897> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "That girl worked hard, and did her best to find those three members."
<0898> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "We might have started at the same point, but she may already have won this one."
<0899> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Well, you're working your hardest too. I know that quite well."
<0900> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "........."
<0901> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Don't give up, keep on trying. There has to be something you can do."
<0902> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "I wonder about that..."
<0903> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Listen, you..."
<0904> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "Oops, slip of the tongue."
<0905> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "Sorry, sorry. Hey, don't look at me like that."
<0906> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "Anyway, I'm going to be leaving you guys at this point."
<0907> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "Give my regards to your parents."
<0908> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Eh... ah, okay."
<0909> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Thanks for your help today."
<0910>
// Sunohara disappears after giving his farewells to Furukawa.
<0911> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Tch... that guy... seriously."
<0912> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "But today was really a lot of fun."
<0913> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Huh?"
<0914> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "We were all aiming for the same goal and we did our best. I think doing that is a lot of fun."
<0915>
// We didn't even accomplish a single one of our goals...
<0916>
// Considering that, I don't see how we could still laugh after all of this.
<0917> \{Furukawa} ""
// \{Furukawa} "Ehehe..."
<0918>
// But if Furukawa's okay with it, then...
<0919>
// It feels as if our hectic day was worth it.
<0920>
// Then...
<0921>
// That feeling suddenly ends as soon as I see someone's tiny back leaning out of a classroom door at the end of the hall.
<0922> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} (That girl...)
<0923>
// Nobody was there when I came out through the entrance.
<0924>
// This is a difficult time of the day, when those going home have already left and those in clubs are already busy with their activities.
<0925> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} (I'm going home...)
