Sweet Sweet Hunger - Chapter 4

Location: Seisou Hall Apartment Hallway (1F) Characters: Niki, Mitsuru & Touri

Niki: Hm? This is… Himemiya-kun and Fushimi-kun’s room, right?

Mitsuru: Yup~!

Hime-chan’s always eating all sorts of food I’ve never even heard of, y’know? So I’m sure he’s definitely had “tiantian” before~!

And Yuzu-chan-senpai’s always making new dishes for Hime-chan to eat, y’know~? He knows a lot about cooking, so he’s sure to know about “tiantian” too!

Niki: I see. I definitely run into Fushimi-kun in the kitchen often. His cooking knowledge and repertoire would even put chefs to shame.

If you think about it that way, Fushimi-kun should definitely know a thing or two about it.

Mitsuru: Yeah. So let’s go and ask!

We’ll start by knocking on the door~ Knock, knock, knock! Yuzu-chan-senpai! There’s something I wanna ask you~ Yuzu-chan senpaaaaai!

Touri: Geez, that’s so loud! Who is it? You don’t have to knock that hard – I can hear you.

Huh? Mitsuru and Shiina-senpai? It’s weird seeing you two together. What’s the matter?

Mitsuru: Hey, Hime-chan~ There’s something we wanna ask you.

By the way, where’s Yuzu-chan-senpai? Not in? We’d like to ask him too.

Touri: Yuzuru’s gone to see his circle. He just left.

Mitsuru: Whaa~? That’s a shame~... What should we do, Shiina-senpai?

Niki: Hmm. That’s unfortunate. But we still want info, even if it’s not much… So we should ask Himemiya-kun at least.

Touri: Hey, don’t make it sound like you’re not happy just asking me. I can give you the answer you’re looking for even without Yuzuru around.

So what did you want to ask?

Niki: Uh, we’re looking for a dessert called “tiantian”, but have you eaten it before? Or heard of it?

Touri: “T–Tiantian”? What’s that?

Niki: Huh? Judging by his reaction, it looks like we failed again~

Mitsuru: Nagisa-senpai told us about a mythical dessert called “tiantian”, y’know!

Touri: A mythical dessert?

Niki: Yeah. It’s apparently super popular right now.

It’s round… but sometimes square… It can change its shape like a cloud.

It’s alluring and tastes… just like the peach of immortality in paradise… it’s mellow and sweet… but it’s also bitter and spicy – just like the taste of youth.

Everyone who’s had it has sealed their lips – it’s a dessert that will make you want to keep it all to yourself!

Touri: *Gulp…♪*

Mitsuru: Huh? Did Nagisa-senpai put it like that?

Niki: He didn’t but that’s how I see it in my eyes and it also shows how much I yearn for it!

Touri: H–Hey, where can you buy this “tiantian”?

Niki: That’s what we wanna know~ So we’re asking people who might have an idea.

Mitsuru: Yeah. We thought you and Yuzu-chan-senpai might know, but it’s a shame.

Niki: Well, it can’t be helped. It’s a mythical dessert that’s hidden away.

Mitsuru: Yeah, that’s true~

Sorry for bothering you, Hime-chan. Let’s keep searching for info on “tiantian”, Shiina-senpai.

Touri: W–Wait!

Mitsuru: Hm? What’s wrong, Hime-chan?

Touri: Well…

I’ll help you guys with your search!

Niki: Huh? …We’ll feel bad~

It’s just me and Tenma-kun who really want to eat it, so we can’t drag you into our issue.

Touri: It’s okay!

Umm… look! I’m a member of “Pretty 5”! So!

Niki: ? What does that have to do with this?

Touri: Most people would think this sorta thing fits the “Sweets Fan Club” more.

But sweets are always a hot topic in “Pretty 5”! And there are a lot of sweets that look cute.

Besides, you have to know the hottest trends if you’re a member of “Pretty 5”!

So you don’t have to feel bad about dragging me into your problem… It’s just like an extension of my circle activities!

Mitsuru: Ahaha. Hime-chan, you’re drooling~☆

Touri: T–That’s not true! *Wipes mouth*

Niki: Well, if that’s the case, then we’ll love to have you join us~ We should be able to find it quicker with more people.

Touri: Yup. Just leave it to me~♪

Mitsuru: But it looks like my plan failed, y’know~ What should we do next?

Touri: Your plan? What plan?

Niki: Tenma-kun thought that rich people would generally eat all kinds of foods, so we figured they might know something about “tiantian”.

Touri: Oh. So that’s why you came to ask me.

Niki: Well, it didn’t succeed, though~ So we need to think about what to do next…

Touri: Okay. Why don’t we keep going with that plan?

Niki: Huh?

Touri: Maybe someone who’s super duper rich might’ve had it before, you know?

💕🍄The 12 Days of Ayumu 🍄💕

JULY 17TH!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY AYUMU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I LOVE YOU SO MUCH AYUMU 😭💕😭💕😭💕 Doing all this translating has done nothing except make me miss him even more 😭 But!!! Today is the big day!! And so we have the thing I’ve been saving for last!!!! The absolutely cutest Ayumu story I think I’ve ever read !!!! ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I wanted to cry when I read it it was so sweet I love him so much sdfgnkjkjnfg

I was a lot more creative with translating this story to make it sound more fun and natural, since I’m finally getting comfortable enough to start doing that, I really hope you guys enjoy it !!

it’s pretty long, so I’m putting it under a readmore

Ayumu Shinonome: Happy Birthday ♡

technically this story is about Ayumu celebrating our birthday, rather than about celebrating his, but...

In the S ward is one of the most popular downtown areas in Tokyo.

2PM —

Middle schooler: Hey, look at that guy over there

Middle schooler 2: Oh my gosh, yeah!

Middle schooler: He’s a host, don’t you think?

Middle schooler 2: He’s definitely a host!

(…No, you’re wrong.)

(I’m just wearing a formal suit.)

Middle schooler: Eek…this is the first time I’ve seen a host in real life!

Middle schooler 2: I guess that’s the norm around here, we are in Tokyo after all!

Thanks to the middle school students who seem to be in the middle of a field trip, I now see the passersby struggling to contain their laughter.

(This couldn’t get any worse. Ugh, this sucks.)

(Really. I was already reluctant enough to do this as is…)

Speaking of which—

MC: Ayumuuuu~!

At last, the reason for all of this torture has arrived.

MC: Sorry! Did I keep you waitin-…

MC: !!!

(Uh…is she okay?)

MC: Ayumu, you…you look…so hot…

MC: Ahh, you look amazing!!

Ayumu: Dummy!! Keep your voice down!

(If she says something like that too loudly…)

Middle schooler: Oh no, look! He’s got a customer…

Middle schooler 2: She must be a huge regular…

Ayumu: …gah, come on, let’s go.

MC: Huh? Already?

MC: I haven’t changed into my pumps yet…

Ayumu: It’s fine, come on! Hurry up!

MC: Ahh, hold up! I came all this way so at least let me put my arm around yours…

MC: Gahh, slow down! You’re walking way too fast!

MC: Ayuumuuuuuu!

This all started about two weeks ago.

MC: Ayumu! Look! This is what I was talking about!

Ayumu: Eh…? Scary…

Fresh out of the bath, my girlfriend suddenly plops down on the ground.

Ayumu: …What

Ayumu: Don’t tell me you broke my limited edition Tyrannosaurus mug…

MC: No, no, that’s not it!

MC: It has to do with this year’s KappaMC Birthday Celebration!

Ayumu: Gross

Ayumu: You’re creating your own birthday celebration…?

MC: It’s a great idea, isn’t it!

MC: I see this kind of thing a lot on social media!

Ayumu: Even so, you’re not supposed to post that about yourself

Ayumu: That sort of tag is made by enthusiastic fans…

MC: Well then, I’ll ask you to do it, Ayumu! Since you should be my biggest fan!

MC: Pleaaase do it with me~?

MC: Take me on a date in a formal suit please!

Nonsense, I thought. At the time.

However, at a later date…

Toru: Ahh~ This seems to be real popular these days! Suit men

Ayumu: …what?

Toru: If you search anywhere on social media sites, you’ll get tons of hits~

Toru: Guys uploading selfies in suits

…I don’t get it.

What’s so fun about showing off a suit?

(Although, she did say something the other day about wanting to go on a date with me in a formal suit..)

Ayumu: Frivolous. Completely.

Toru: Noo, you just need to choose the right place to go!

Toru: Shall the Great Toru offer you some guidance~?

Ayumu: No thanks. There’s no way that’s ever happening…

Toru: Hm, well I don’t know what kind of person your partner is, but—

Toru: Sometimes it’s important to spice things up a bit so that you don’t fall into a rut!

Ayumu: …

Toru: Again, I really have noo idea who your partner is buuuut

Toru: I think women who like that sort of thing would be really happy~

Ayumu: …

(…bah. He’s probably right.)

(She does seem like she’d like that sort of thing…)

That’s why I decided to title it “The Extraordinary Production”

I end up regretting this as soon as we start stage one—meeting up downtown.

(Ah, well, at least I won’t feel as out of place at the next stage.)

Yes, and the next stage is—

MC: Look! Look! Ayumu! The view outside is sooooooo pretty!!

Ayumu: Ah, I see.

(Naturally. We are on the 38th floor.)

By the way, the seats here are filled almost full.

Of them, about half are reservations.

MC: Whoaaa, did you see?? This afternoon tea set!!

MC: The tea stand! It has five tiers! Five!!

Ayumu: Ah, I see.

MC: Hey, at least act more surprised!

MC: Fives tiers? This is the first time, for me at least, that I’ve ever seen anything like this!

(…yeah, I suppose it would be)

I say this because—

Toru: How’s this place look?

Toru: “Enjoy some luxury afternoon tea on the top floor of a high rise tower”

Toru: Whoa, the tea stand, it’s got five tiers!

Ayumu: Ah, I see.

Toru: Ugh, what kind of response was that!

Toru: Are you even listening?? The tea stand has five tears!!

Toru: Isn’t that alone pretty much a win right there?

Ayumu: I don’t get it.

Toru: In a date, it’s either a win or a loss…

Soma: But doesn’t it seem likely that it would make his date happy?

Ayumu: !

Soma: Women who are particular about food will also care about how many tiers of sweets there are, will they not?

Soma: Glutto-no, women who eat everything with enthusiasm,

Soma: I think they would be very pleased with a five tiered tea stand.

Ayumu: Haa…

MC: What should I do?? My heart is beating so fast, I’m so excited…

MC: I don’t think I’ll be able to eat all five tiers…

Ayumu: If it’s you, you’ll be fine.

Ayumu: …since you’re a glutton.

MC: Huh? What did you just say right now…?

Ayumu: Nothing, don’t worry about it.

Seeing the waiter passing by, I raise my hand to get their attention.

Waiter: Did you decide what you would like to order?

Ayumu: The afternoon tea set for two people, please.

Ayumu: The original black tea blend.

Waiter: Understood, thank you.

As soon as the waiter walks away, I purposely sigh dramatically.

Ayumu: So noisy

MC: Wha-…I didn’t even sa-

Ayumu: Your stare

Ayumu: It feels like you’re trying to stare into my soul or something since a while ago.

MC: …hey, b-but that….

MC: I mean! I can’t help it…

MC: You just look way too amazing today, it’s like my eyes are being sucked in…

Ayumu: …

(…what is she even saying, this girl)

Ayumu: This isn’t the first time you’ve seen me like this though, is it? In a suit?

MC: That’s true, but…today is special…

MC: You wore the suit for me, didn’t you?

MC: That automatically makes you look, like, 30% hotter!

MC: I’m just so happy, I can’t stop looking at you

Ayumu: ….I see.

There was a strange pause before I replied.

Probably because I was remembering the advice that Toru gave me.

Toru: You definitely need to be sure to always compliment your date’s outfit~

Ayumu: …wha?

Toru: Well, if you’re wearing a formal suit

Toru: Then your date should also be in formal wear, right?

Ayumu: that…well…

Toru: And so, you need to be sure to give your date lots of compliments!

Toru: Cause girls always put several times more effort into things like their makeup and hairstyle!

Ayumu: No, no, she doesn’t have me beat there

Ayumu: If we’re talking hairstyle, it’s definitely me…

Toru: Bah, well, saying things like “that looks great on you” or “you look pretty” is always a safe bet

Toru: And then…

Ayumu: You don’t—

MC: “I don’t”?

—“you don’t look too bad yourself, either”

That’s it. All I have to do is use what she said as an opportunity to compliment her back.

(So, come on. Say it.)

(Just light and natural.)

(Sound genuine about it…)

Ayumu: You don’t—

MC: Ah!!

Suddenly, my girlfriend jumps out of her chair as if remembering something.

MC: Sorry, is it okay if I go to the restroom for real quick?

MC: It’s…my shoes, I’m still wearing my sneakers

Ayumu: …

MC: No, I know already, you don’t have to tell me

MC: “You should’ve just worn your pumps from the beginning”

MC: That’s what you were about to say, right?

MC: But these shoes don’t quite fit right…

MC: “It’ll be fine if just change into them right before I meet up with Ayumu”…is what I had told myself

Ayumu: …

MC: I’ll just change into them real quick!!

Ayumu: …

(…This sucks.)

I just let a perfect chance that I’ll probably never see again slip by.

(No, it’s fine though.)

(It’s not like I absolutely HAVE to give her a compliment.)

That was just Toru’s opinion.

She didn’t specifically ask me to do it, or anything.

And so, from there, while I’m with my girl…

MC: Ahh, that was so delicious!

MC: The cake and the scones and the tea, they were all the best! Ayumu: …

MC: Oh, and the clotted cream too!

MC: It was the first time I’ve ever had it but it went surprisingly well with the scones~

MC: I wonder if they sell it at that other shop…

(…this is it.)

Her head is probably full of the afternoon tea we just had.

I want to make her happy…more than anything.

(But it’s impossible to compliment her when things are like this.)

I’ll just start by making a statement about what she’s wearing, but it’ll have a compliment at the end.

“I noticed your dress has lace on top of the turquoise fabric. It’s not bad.

“Those pumps must not be comfortable to wear. But they go nicely with the dress.”

“It’s been a while since I’ve seen you wear this much makeup. It looks nice.”

(I’m psyching myself up too much, aren’t I?)

I guess it just goes to show how much I’ve been looking forward to this day, though.

MC: So where are we going next?

Ayumu: Anywhere is fine, as long as it only takes about an hour.

MC: Hm? What does that mean?

Ayumu: This.

I pull two tickets out of the breast pocket of my suit.

MC: Whaa…the opera??

Ayumu: It’s in about an hour from now. So we can’t go unless we go at that time.

(The idea wasn’t mine, though.)

Yes, this idea…

Toru: Hmm, what other places would be good to wear a formal suit to…

Toru: What about a luxury brand store?

Ayumu: Huh?

Toru: If you wear a businesswear vs a formal suit to a shop, the staff will treat you differently, right?

Toru: Because they’ll be acting even more polite to you

Toru: There’s no doubt that your date will feel like a celebrity!

Toru: Right, Goto?

Goto: Don’t touch me, I’m not responding to that.

Toru: And after you can take her to a fancy restaurant inside a hotel or a bar with a gorgeous night view!

Toru: Sure it might be a little cliche sounding, but it’ll certainly be something out of the ordinary that you won’t forget!

Toru: Hey, Gotooo!

Goto: Look, even if you touch me, I’m still not going to respo-

???: Aww, aren’t you guys sweet

Toru: …huh?

Tsugaru: Don’t you know this is the perfect time to go watch the opera?

Ayumu: ..……good afternoon. How long have you been there?

Tsugaru: Now that hardly matters, does it?

Tsugaru: More importantly, if you’re going to put all that effort into a date, you should go to the opera.

Tsugaru: It’s like a date specifically meant for formal wear, is it not~?

Tsugaru: Hmmm, but…

Tsugaru: It’s possible the person you’re planning to take on a date doesn’t understand the opera, though.

Ayumu: …I should first confirm whether that’s true or not, though

Ayumu: Hey, have you ever watched the opera?

MC: Uhhhh, that’s…

MC: Well, I’ve seen Phantom of the Opera…

Ayumu: That’s not the same thing

Ayumu: That’s just a musical.

MC: …well of course I know that much!

MC: So, this is a first

MC: It’ll be my “first time”!

Ayumu: Wait…do you hear that—

MC: I want my first time to be with you, Ayumu!

MC: So please, take my opera virginity—!

???: Ahhh!!

A sudden scream drowns out her playful chattering.

Woman: A purse snatcher…!!

Woman: Somebody, please! My bag!

(Seriously? A purse snatcher?)

Before I get a chance to confirm, she jumps into action.

She starts chasing the purse snatcher.

(Dummy! What is she doing??)

Purse snatcher: Damn it…!

The criminal escapes to the back alley at the end of the road. Of course, my girl isn’t the type to give up so easily.

MC: Stop right there!

While she chases after the purse snatcher, I enter the next alley.

If the criminal turns the corner here, I’m pretty sure I can cut him off.

Sure enough—

(…he came.)

MC: Ayumu!

Purse snatcher: Shit…!

I’m in front of the criminal, blocking his path, while she’s at his back. He turns around and rushes at her.

Purse snatcher: Move it!

MC: Just who do you think you are!!

Her next move is quite something. As the criminal charges at her, she swiftly grabs his right hand, twisting it behind his back and shoving him to the ground, planting her body weight on his back.

Purse snatcher: Ouch! Ow ow ow!

From there, we hand over the criminal to the authorities and all live happily ever after—

Or not.

MC: The interrogation took longer than I expected…

Ayumu: Yeah, it did

MC: But if we leave now we should be able to just barely make it in time…

???: Oh my gosh, look at her

I hear a whisper from a woman passing by.

Woman: Yikes, look at her, did she get into a fight?

Woman 2: Maybe she fell? There’s a hole in her stockings

The innocent exchange seems to have reached her ears.

MC: Oh…

There’s no denying that she looks beat up right now.

Her dress is dirty and the knees of her stockings have holes in them.

(Of course.)

(She had to straddle the criminal on the ground to secure him.)

However, her stockings aren’t the only thing that tore.

MC: I-I’m sorry, I’lll go change them right away…

Ayumu: The lace

MC: Huh?

Ayumu: The lace part on your dress, too

MC: !

Ayumu: Did it get caught on something? Like a nail?

Ayumu: When you were chasing after the purse snatcher

MC: …ah, yeah…

Seems I probably guessed right.

MC: I’m so sorry, I’ll go change into a new outfit…

MC: Ah…but, the time…

Ayumu: …

MC: Please just wait a second…I’ll figure it out someway or another…

MC: To change…I’ll just, I’ll go buy some new clothes…

Ayumu: It’s fine, the way it is now

Strangely, the words seem to just flow out of my mouth on their own accord

Ayumu: You don’t look bad

MC: Uhh…?

Ayumu: It doesn’t look bad, does it? How you look right now

It’s still the outfit she put so much effort into, just a bit worn out now.

Either way, it’s still very ‘KappaMC’-like.

(Really, it’s not bad.)

I run my hands through her messy hair to smooth it out.

She looks up at me, confused.

MC: Um…Ayumu…?

Ayumu: Let’s go

MC: Wait, I can’t go to the opera looking like this…

Ayumu: We’re not. Going to the opera, that is.

MC: What! No! Don’t say that!

MC: You already bought the tickets and everything…

Ayumu: Don’t worry about it, really, it’s okay.

Just a slight change in schedule.

Truthfully, I had planned on bringing her ‘here’ after the opera, anyway.

(Ah, but this timing actually isn’t bad at all, it works out well.)

Ayumu: Aren’t you coming?

MC: But…I look like a mess…

Ayumu: You look fine, don’t worry about it

Ayumu: I rented out the place

MC: Rented out??

MC: Here??

Startled, she looks around at the surroundings.

(Ah, well, it makes sense. Reacting that way.)

If I was in her position, I’d probably react the same way,

Ayumu: Your hand.

MC: Sorry?

Ayumu: Your left hand. Give it to me.

MC: Oh, um, alright…

I grabbed her nervously outstretched hand and led her to middle of the stairs.

(Finally.)

Now we just need to stand here for five more seconds.

Honestly, this is the most nerve wracking part of the whole day.

(But, well, it’s her birthday.)

(And it’s special.)

Ayumu: 3…2…1…

At the exact moment I point, balloons float up into the sky.

MC: Balloons??!

She watches as the balloons float upwards, eyes wide in surprise.

I use her distraction as an opportunity to pick up the bouquet I had hidden.

Ayumu: Happy birthday

Her mouth falls open wide in shock.

Yeah. It really isn’t like me to do this sort of thing.

But, the one who thought of this surprise, make no mistake, was me. I came up with it.

(This is a once in a year occasion, after all.)

(And I thought she would like it, if I did this.)

Ayumu: So? What do you think?

MC: … Ayumu: MC?

No reply.

(Uhh, what’s the status here?)

(Maybe I messed up…)

MC: A-a…yu…

(Ah-yoo…?)

MC: A-yu-muuuuu…!!

(Whoa wait just a-)

Ayumu: Oof

Sniffling, she throws her arms around me.

MC: I-I…j-just…nnnf, I’m…I’m so, nnnnff, so happy…I, nnnf, love it…s..so much..!!

MC: T-th…! This…surprise, nnnf, it…it’s…!!!

Ayumu: …

MC: P-plea…zz…please sta…stay with, nnnf, with me…fore…forever, nnnf…!!

Ayumu: …dummy.

Ayumu: I can’t understand what you’re saying.

That’s a lie.

Truthfully, I understand perfectly what she’s saying.

(“Stay with me.”)

I’ll stay with you, for the rest of our lives.

In return, don’t ever let go of me.

I did something today that I never would’ve even dreamed of doing before, all because you’ve changed me.

Ayumu: Happy birthday

MC: T-thank you…

Ayumu: So, what shall we do from here?

First, I have a room for us to stay at.

But after we check in, we can spend our time however we’d like until dinner time.

(Ah, no, but before that we need to change.)

(As you’d imagine, going to the restaurant looking like this would be…)

MC: …iss…

Ayumu: Hm?

MC: Kiss…I want to kiss you…

MC: From here on…with you, forever…

Ayumu: …

Ayumu: …dummy

I was asking about later today, but…

Is she asking for a kiss with a runny nose and a tear soaked face?

There’s a lot of things I want to say to that, but—

(Ah, well, it’s her birthday…)

Her lips taste salty, as expected.

But…I don’t hate it. Maybe I’ve gone crazy too.

MC: Thank you…

As we pulled away from the kiss she sniffled loudly.

MC: I, um, I feel like I’m dreaming…

MC: My head feels all fuzzy…

Ah, I see.

MC: I’m gonna…just you wait…!

MC: Next time it’s your birthday, I’m gonna think of an amazing surprise…!

Ayumu: No need to.

I have nothing but a bad feeling about that.

Ayumu: Seriously, don’t. Hard pass.

MC: …hmph, meanie!

MC: If this is how you feel, now I’m DEFINITELY going to plan something!!!

MC: Like making dinosaur balloons, or dinosaur 3D pancakes, or…

MC: Maybe I’ll rent out a whole museum…

MC: Mmph, mmm…

It’s really not necessary. Coming up with some sort of surprise.

(If you’re here with me.)

As long as you stay here next to me—

If we can kiss like this, then that’s enough for me.

-The End-

Isn’t that CG gorgeous??? And wasn’t that story soooo frickin adorable??? sbkhgkjadbf I have so many feelings about this 😭💕😭💕

And thank you so so so so sooo much to @world-a-to-z!! Like I’d mentioned at the start, I was never part of the Peach fanclub because I only started reading Ayumu’s stories almost exactly a year ago now. And so, I didn’t have access to this story. So what did this absolutely wonderful person do?? Transcribe this entire story in Japanese!!!! And then was kind enough to send it to me, along with the screenshots of the backgrounds (which were pretty necessary for all the scene changes, I think) and the CG, so that I could translate it. So please give her a HUGE HUGE thank you for making basically almost the entirety of this birthday celebration possible!!! 💕💕💕

Thank you guys so much for celebrating with me! I hope everyone had a lot of fun!!! I can’t wait to actually sleep again now...I spent sooo much time doing all these translations whoops ><

In case you missed a day, or want to reread anything, you’ll find links to all the posted content here!

'Lust of lovers in the summer' Story Event~Morinaga Route

(It's hot again today....)

I walk in the sunshine, wiping the sweat off my face.

But despite the heat, joyful voices could be heard from all over the town.

Merchant 1: "It's almost the summer festival, isn't it? Morinaga-san and his friends are going to do something, aren't they? Have you heard the details?"

Merchant 2: "No, not at all. But it’ll be fun with that man leading the way."

Merchant 3: "Yes. I wonder, what's in store for us?"

(As expected of Morinaga-san..... Everyone is hyped.)

In order to liven up the town of Kamakura, which is suffering from the extreme heat, the samurai of Kamakura decided to hold a summer festival.

Morinaga-san was appointed by Yoritomo-sama to take charge of this.

He is now working with his men in one part of the town to prepare for the festival.

(I can only help by bringing some refreshments, but I hope the festival is a success.)

....................

(Oh, I think this is the workshop.)

It looks like they have just stepped out onto the back of the stage, which is being assembled.

Yoshino: "Um, hello. I've brought you some----"

Morinaga: "Oh hey, Yoshino. Come here."

(Ha!!!..... Half-naked Morinaga-san!)

His exposed, water-soaked upper body is a sight to behold.

Morinaga: "Oh, sorry about this. I was just taking a dip in the water because I was sweating at work."

Morinaga-san approached me looking like that.

Yoshino: "Erm....where are the others?"

Morinaga: "We decided to take a break a while ago."

Yoshino: "Um, Morinaga-san...if you could...wear your kimono back on...?"

Morinaga: "Why? You have already seen me like this last night. Are still embarrassed? No wait,.....You're embarrassed because you saw me like this last night, isn't it?"

Morinaga-san bent down lightly and looked into my eyes, and my cheeks heated up.

Yoshino: "Nn..Don't tease me....."

Morinaga: "Sorry, I must have hit the nail on the head."

Morinaga-san's smile deepens as I look away, unable to bear my embarrassment.

Morinaga: "You're so cute."

He looked at me with his sweet, lechery eyes and my heart clenched.

(But....I'm at the mercy of Morinaga-san all the time.)

I have only recently fallen in love with him, and I am swept away by the little antics of the more mature Morinaga-san.

Morinaga: "There's nothing wrong in having a shy face, but it's lonely when you look away so much."

Taking both my hands, Morinaga-san let me hook them around his neck, wondering what I was thinking.

(Wh-Whaa...this position?)

Morinaga: "You looked me right in the eye last night, didn't you? It was lovely to see you begging for it, .....but I don't think I'll see it again today."

Yoshino: "Mm...."

A thick-skinned finger flicked my lips, causing a slight sensation of pleasure.

Morinaga-san's face comes to me as if he was enjoying seeing me blushing....

We kissed,....a soft tongue crept through the opening to gently pamper my mouth.

Yoshino: "Hmm....ah..."

Morinaga: "At last a voice that sounds familiar..."

(Mm....I don't know, but it's like he's trying to revive the last night's memories...)

Morinaga-san embraces my waist with his big hands and melts me with his mouth.

In between, his hands start to trace my legs from my waist, reminding me of how he touched me last night.

From my toes to my head, I felt a sweet sensation that sent shivers down my spine.

Yoshino: "Haa.....No, Morinaga-san. Someone...might see us...."

Morinaga: "How can I stop, when you make that lovely face? You're such a sly, first, you make that face, and then you won't even let me play."

Yoshino: "What do....you mean by 'play'?"

Morinaga: "Play with you, of course."

Yoshino: "No. Not now....!"

I shouted and pressed the package against his chest and Morinaga-san chuckled.

Yoshino: "Are you teasing me....?"

Morinaga: "No,..... it's just that you're so comfortable with me that I got carried away."

(.....Mm)

A gentle but dangerous flame of greed burned in his eyes, which were drawn back by a pleasant smile.

As soon as I realized this, we kissed again.

Samurai 1: "Morinaga-sama! We're back!"

(.....!?)

Samurai 1: "Huh, I don't see Morinaga-sama."

Samurai 2: "Maybe he had gone somewhere?"

(Everyone is back....!)

A voice from the other side of the stage made me instantly impatient.

They are nice people who are happy to see us together, but there is no way I can show them this.

Yoshino: "Morinaga-san, they are all here. Let go now...."

I try to pull away, but the hand on my hip doesn't budge.

Morinaga: "Heh, are you sure you wanna go in front of other men with that face?"

Yoshino: "Mm....."

The back of his fingers brushed my cheek, kindling another sweet tingle.

Morinaga: "Teary eyes, blushing face.... I'm the only one allowed to see you like this. Isn't that right?"

Yoshino: ".....Y-Yes..."

Morinaga: "Yeah, good girl."

Satisfied with my reply, Morinaga-san comes closer and rubs the tip of our noses together....

When I had my fill of hidden kisses, the package I had to deliver was gently taken away.

Morinaga: "I'll deliver this. If they see you right now, I'll be jealous. Thank you, and be careful on your way back."

Yoshino: "Ah....."

(---Let's run.)

Even my breath is hot and I feel a little embarrassed again.

(Alas! What a sly person.......... who only makes me throb.)

.................

One day after that-----

Merchant 1: "Did you hear? There's going to be a big raffle at the festival, and everyone gets to draw once."

(Heh, I see.)

I came to the town to sell medicine and listened to the voices I heard.

But then----

Merchant 1: "And the raffle! The first prize is the right to have one wish granted by Morinaga-sama."

(Ehh?)

Merchant 2: "Is that so? Well, then we'll have our roof repaired."

Kids: "We want Morinaga-san to play with us!"

Merchant 3: "Hmmm, maybe I'll have a lesson in the art of gambling then."

(Hehe. There are many kinds of wishes.)

I smile as people talk happily about the festival.

Woman: "Really!, then, that I should invite Morinaga-sama on a date."

(....!?)

Merchant 1: "Well, maybe you will surely get your way with him! Now we'll all be participating in the raffle anyway!"

(No no no no.....whaa?)

I could no longer listen to their excited laughter with any sense of calm.

(Is it possible that Morinaga-san will go on a date with other women....?)

....................

Morinaga: "Ohhh, so I'm the prize. I've been a winner but never been a prize before."

Yoshino: "What do you mean, you didn't know?"

When I asked him about it after returning to the Imperial Palace, he gave me a very relaxed response.

Kagetoki: "You're very popular with people. It's going to be a lot of fun, isn't it?"

Morinaga: "I'm not sure if that was your idea, Kagetoki, I don't mind, though. But at the very least, you should have informed me about this. Yoritomo-sama, entrust this to me, you know?"

Kagetoki: "It's not going to change anything. It's up to you to make it happen."

Morinaga: "That's true."

As Morinaga-san pondered this, my concern deepened.

(.....I'm sure it's a good event, as the aim is to provide fun for the people of the town.)

(But what if Morinaga-san goes on to date with the person who drew the first prize...!)

...................

After Morinaga-san and Kagetoki-san had gone, I gave a small shrug of my shoulders.

(I don't want Morinaga-san to go on a date with....any other woman.)

Shigehira: "Yoshino-san, what are you doing here?"

Yoshino: "! Shigehira-kun."

When I expressed my concerns to Shigehira-kun, who said he would listen to me, he looked at me in dismay.

Shigehira: "Oh, dear! That's what you're worried about?"

Yoshino: "Yeah!"

Shigehira: "It's certainly possible that a woman with such hopes could win first prize."

(Mmmmm....)

Shigehira: "But I don't think he's going to take it very well with you around. I think you should talk to him directly, not me."

Shigehira: "----You guys are in love, right?"

Yoshino: "....! Thank you, Shigehira-kun."

(It's nice to have straightforward encouragement at a time like this.)

(Okay. Let's talk to Morinaga-san about this later.)

.................

But Morinaga-san was always busy, and time went by without him having a chance.

(Hmmm, what to do....)

The day before the festival, I was returning from the city to the palace with a troubled mind.

(Oh, I can hear some voices....)

(Morinaga-san must be rehearsing for his festival.)

I stopped to look around and a shrine happened to catch my eye.

(I'm not sure if I'll be able to see him today... can I ask God for help?)

I put my hands together, closed my eyes, and breathe.

(I have one wish....-----)

(May I win the first prize in tomorrow’s raffle!)

Morinaga: "You look very serious. Is something bothering you?"

Yoshino: "Ah, Morinaga-san.....!?"

Morinaga: "Hey. It's been a while since I've seen our face properly."

I looked up at the familiar voice and saw Morinaga-san standing right next to me.

Yoshino: "What are you doing here? I thought you were practicing?"

Morinaga: "Right. We were just about to wrap up. I was just about to join you. But what's wrong with you? It seems like you're asking God for help."

(Okay....there's no better opportunity than now.)

Yoshino: "Morinaga-san, I have something to talk about. Can I have some of your time?"

Morinaga: "Talk? About what?"

Yoshino: "If it's a bother then----"

Morinaga: "Not at all. You're always welcome to talk to me. Then come to my house tonight. It's been a while since we've spent any time together."

Yoshino: "Yes....!"

(I only got my promise. Thank you god.)

.........

Thus, I was invited to visit Morinaga-san in his room....

I went to the house at a time when the practice would be over and was immediately shown into Morinaga-san's room.

(Hmm. I don't think he's home yet....)

I relaxed my shoulders and looked around.

As I was wondering how I was going to start the conversation----

I heard someone's footsteps walking towards me.

Morinaga: "Here you are. Have I kept you waiting long?"

(Ah.....!)

Yoshino: "No, I just arrived...."

No sooner had I said this than Morinaga-san sat down in front of me.

Morinaga: "Come here."

(Ehh!)

He lifts me up by my waist and placed me on his lap.

Morinaga: "What do you wanna talk about? Let me hear it."

(Like this....!?)

This position, straddling on Morinaga-san's lap and resting my weight on them is too embarrassing.

But the hands that pulled me down to my waist wouldn’t allow me to move away.

Morinaga: "I'm getting a bit tired after all the work we've been doing for the festival. It wouldn't hurt to get a little energy from my own little girl for a night, would it?"

(That's a little.....)

My heart fluttered as I realized that the eyes staring at me had long since reached a fever pitch.

Morinaga: "Hey, can I kiss you?"

Yoshino: "....... Yes."

His slightly rough, masculine lips press softly against mine.

(Mm.....)

I haven't had the sensation of a moist, repeated kiss for days.

The feeling makes us breathless, and we lose ourselves in each other.

(Oh, my hands....)

I felt a gentle nudge of the leg that had been straddling my thigh, and the pit of my stomach slowly....melted.

The finger that entered through the hem of the kimono traced up my inner thigh as if it had seen through it.

(Ah-----no!)

I wondered at his hand, which had stopped just before touching my fragile part, and met his eyes, which narrowed happily.

Morinaga: "...I think I'd better go on from here after I've heard all your troubles. What's the matter?"

(Ngh....)

Yoshino: "Not fair....Morinaga-san..."

(You stopped it on purpose....!)

I looked at Morinaga-san, in tears and he smiles back at me.

Morinaga: "Don't get me wrong. You see, if I don't ask you now, I won't have the chance to ask later."

(Hm...Mm....)

The hand that had been touching my waist, started stroking lovingly, and I couldn't help but rock my hips unintentionally.

Yoshino: "This is....embarrassing..."

Morinaga: "Well then...

(Oh, I'm still at his mercy....)

Embarrassed, I finally gave up.

I started talking about how I was worried after hearing that anyone could be the winner in the raffle, and the winner could ask on a date with Morinaga-san.

I also revealed that I asked God to let me win the first prize.

Morinaga: "You're really cute."

Yoshino:"...Don't laugh."

Morinaga: "I'm not teasing you. I'm just really happy."

Morinaga-san stroked my cheek and my eyes softened....

Morinaga: "But Yoshino, in such case, you should turn to me, not to God. Because it's my job, not anyone's, to grant your request."

(Morinaga-san....)

Morinaga: "And don't worry. If someone asks me to do something like that, I'll let him off with a no. I know it's a bit unfair, but I'm not saying I'll not do anything. I've already got the most important woman in the world, it's only natural, right?"

(Nn....)

The sweetness of his voice as he says it gently makes my heart tighten.

Yoshino: "So I'm the only one who can go out with Morinaga-an, right....?"

Morinaga: "Of course. And going on a date... You're the only person I'd want to do these kinds of things with."

I repeated his words in a low voice and hugged Morinaga-san, tightly.

(That's great.... I told Morinaga-san and in no time I had nothing but happy feelings.)

Morinaga: "...Did I reassure you a little?"

Yoshino: "Yes, thank you! This way, even if I don't win the first prize I won't be jealous of anyone else. Maybe I won't even have to draw lots at all."

Morinaga: "You're of those people who lives in Kamakura, so you have the right to draw. The pride of the Kamakura Shogunate, it's the best thing that's happened all summer. Come and try it for yourself."

Yoshino: "Sure. I'll try it to test out my luck."

I replied with a smile-- and Morinaga-san suddenly looked into my eyes.

Morinaga: "....Yoshino. What do you want me to do if you win the first prize? What's your wish?"

Yoshino: "Well....I'd like to enjoy our time together. Morinaga-san, you're always surrounded by so many people. So I will ask you to let me have you all to myself."

Morinaga-san laughed aloud.

Morinaga: "I hope you’ll really wish that when you win."

...............

On the day of the festival---

(Wow, what a busy street.)

The town, decorated with festive decorations, was crowded with spectators.

On a special stage, Morinaga-san and his friends were just finishing their performance.

Samurai 1: "Ah! Morinaga-sama, Yoshino-san is here."

Yoshino: "Morinaga-san, Thank you for your hard work."

Morinaga: "Yeah.....!"

Looking back at him, Morinaga-san's eyes widened and then he immediately smiled.

Morinaga: "My god, you tied your hair up today. It's nice and cool. It suits you. Oh, by the way, did you draw the raffle? It's about to close."

Yoshino: "About that...."

Samurai 2: "You're just in time. Go on, take one."

When I picked up one from the raffle boxes offered to me, I was a little nervous.

(But I'm fine.)

I looked up at Morinaga-san and his kind, narrowed eyes reassured me.

Samurai 1: “Um.... Actually, we’re sorry.”

Yoshino: “Huh? What for?”

Surprised by the sudden apology, a few of the people swept their eyes apologetically.

Samurai 1: “We were there when Morinaga-sama was planned to be the first prize for the raffle.”

Samurai 2: “Later we realized that if a woman who liked Morinaga-sama drew the first prize, what would she wish for.... You guys have just recently started dating, and we should have stopped them.”

Samurai 3: “But this one time we couldn’t. But we support Morinaga-sama and Yoshino-san from the bottom of our hearts!”

(Eh)

Standing next to me, Morinaga-san laughs out loud,

Morinaga: “Thank you for worrying about me. But that’s okay. I’ve already talked to Yoshino about it, right?”

Yoshino: “Yes!”

Samurai: “! What.....”

Morinaga-san and I chuckled, though we apologized for the puzzled looks on everyone’s faces.

Morinaga: “Well, I’d better get ready for the result announcement. Will you come to see the results?”

Yoshino: “Yes! I want to see if I win the first prize!”

Morinaga: “I’m looking forward to it too. Win the first prize and keep me to yourself.”

As the sun went down, the excitement of the festival covered the town of Kamakura.

Morinaga: “Well, here we go! It’s time for the Kamakura summer lottery, which our main attraction.”

(Finally....!)

The festival site was the most exciting place of the day.

Thanks to the support of the Shogunate, the prizes are all very generous.

(We all want to be challenged, don’t we?)

Many people who have won the raffle were happy with their prizes, while some were disappointed.

The tension and excitement grew with each successive announcement of the third and second prizes.

Morinaga: “And now, for the most awaited one! The first prize! I’ll grant the person who wins first prize, one wish. You can ask me any favor you want...-----”

Premium END // Epilogue

I loved it! I loved every bit of this story. So who do you think will win? Will it be Yoshino? or some random woman? or a kid? or Yoritomo-sama?.....you’re all free to guess.

zen- musical performer!!- its been his dream to meet you, you were one of his biggest inspirations- you managed to be so talented at such a young age, hes always wanted to interview you and get personal advice- when you logged in, you used your real first name instead of your performing one, so he just thought you had the same name by coincidence- but when you came over to his house and he opened the door to see,,??- you just smiled and went “zen!!” and he..- his heart went doki doki,,- he just stuttered and let you in, asking if you were the same mc from the chat- when you explained you were in fact the same mc (you just used your first name to avoid extra drama/suspicion), he just starts rambling about how big of a fan he is and that youve always been a huge inspiration- hes cautious about advancements after that, he doesnt want you thinking its just because youre famous- youve offered to help him out, but he refuses and says he wants to earn his fame on his own- will take a while to tell the press about your relationship but POWER COUPLE!!!!!- he really praises you so much and is constantly asking for your validation and opinion.. hes swooning

jaehee- music artist!!- i think she really likes more soothing and mellow music, and youre a bit famous in that genre because of your singing!!- she came across your music one day and just fell in love- youre voice is so beautiful and it calms her so much,, she so thankful- like the others, she just ignores your username and plays it off as a coincidence- when she calls you for the first time, shes really surprised because okay THAT sounds familiar- but shes still denying it skskd- but when she meets you for the first time she ?? UHH- yeah ok no denying it now- shes telling you how much your music helped her and how talented she thinks you are- she,, will ask you to sing her to sleep oh my god please….

jumin- kdrama actor!!- we all know how much he watches and,, he saw one in particular that got him interested- hes never really checked out certain actors before, but there was something about how you spoke and reflected your emotions that captivated him- hes watched all your films and loves every single one- when you entered the chatroom, he makes a small comment about liking an actor with the same name- “haha i get that a lot..”- cue seven smirking behind the monitor- but when you showed up at his door, hes shook???- *runs to tear down poster in his room* “h-hello mc *cough* w-welcome”- youre the first celebrity hes ever gotten into and now youre here at his door??- are we in a simulation?????- bro sarah cant even try to compete now lololol- that scene he recited to her? yeah, those were your lines- he insists you watch your films together with him and he makes comments during romantic scenes about reenacting them- c&r has suddenly taken an interest in using celebrities for marketing and collaborations….

seven- comedian!!- he secretly steals your jokes and says them in the gc - but when you log in the chat and he does the background check hes so shook??- when all your messages are funny one liners and puns,, hes smiling so big- will have joke-offs with you- you call him out when he accidentally recycles some of your well known lines - when you meet irl hes so IN LOVE by how quick you are with your wit,,- he will counter your roasts with more roasts and its an endless cycle- comes to every show and is so supportive god can we appreciate him- nobody can stand being in the same room as yall fr

v- artist!!- he found you on social media when you were a smaller account, holding less than 2k followers- and he watched you grow and get famous, now with half a million- when you entered the chatroom, you used your real name instead of the online alias, so he didnt think anything of it- but he noticed a familiar speech pattern, brushing it off as just a common trend and coincidence- youve never shared your face online, so seeing you (not blind i guess…) wasnt a big deal- but he came over once and what???? - he walks into the studio and recognizes almost half the paintings- youre mc the artist online wHAT??????- hahahahahahhahaaaaa- you try to brush it off and belittle yourself but hes not having it- he bought prints of that one painting right there so stfu- he takes his time to tell you about how much he loves your work and how long youve been a fan- … and you explain how youve been a fan of his work for a long time too- this obviously means POWER COUPLE!!!!!!!!!

Teen Wolf Scripts liveblog: Season 1 Episode 2

Second ep of the first season, appropriately titled:

Teen Wolf Scripts!

Back again, Wolfiends. Another lengthy post consisting of screenshots of the Teen Wolf script alongside my own rambling commentary. I’m not here to review the show; finer minds than myself have got that covered. Nor is it a photo-recap; that has been done by crazier bastards than myself.

I am here, as no doubt we all are, holding up my empty bowl to Jeff Davis and saying in a pitiful voice, “please, sir, I want some more.” Now, eat your gruel and count yourself lucky because this batch has raisins in it.

Excerpts have been selected based on the following criteria: 1) It did not make the final cut; 2) It was substantially altered; 3) It offers extra detail not apparent from the show, such as description and direction; and 4) I felt like including it.

Fun times (and, obviously, a hell of a lot of spoilers) below the cut.

Okay, let’s get started!

WhaaAAAAT?

We open on a doozie here. Is this a sign that the elusive Greenberg may actually exist? Like, in corporeal form? Not just a figment of Coach’s fevered imagination?

The lacrosse sequence we’re shown was more montage-y than the script suggests and we don’t see Coach pass the ball to anyone directly, but here’s the first player to try for goal:

Greenberg?

Or actually, it might have been this guy (confusing montage is confusing):

Greenberg (’s hairy leg)?

Oh but now here is where coach is telling Greenberg to take a lap, and THIS GUY starts running.

GREENBEEEEERRG!

Coach is doing more actual coaching than I had thought him capable of, that’s nice.

I don’t know what these “slap checks” and “cross checks” are, but to me it just looked like two guys in plastic armour smashing into one another. But what do I know, I’m not a sportsball expert.

Also, goats.

Sorry, sorry. I meant

*lurk*

Well there goes my headcanon that wolf-puppy Scott just wanted to pway wif his best fwiend!

I love this scene a lot, and I’m glad they made it more scary and dramatic than this, with the jumping up on lockers and crouching in rafters and such. Why go around something when you can go over it, amirite?

Hello, gorgeous!

A STRANGE SILHOUETTE.

I don’t know who you think you’re kidding, Jeff Davis. By now I think we all know that, like “a figure” and “someone watching”, this is a synonym for

Now 100% more grabby!

That part isn’t news, but— Pffffft Melissa.

LMFAO

Come on though, Melissa’s not that old. She knows perfectly well what it means, she just does this because it amuses her to make Scott squirm and huff.

Then Allison pops up to tell him that she too is excited to come and watch him play.

He didn’t get the line, but his face said it for him.

Meanwhile, someone’s creeping on Allison!

HOW VERY ALONE

NOT A SOUL

Until——

Just kidding. The script doesn’t say who it is. I guess we’ll never know. Or, canon confirmation that Derek Hale OR WHOEVER does not possess a soul

In math class—

Yeah, buddy. Us too.

Ah, Lydia

Is LAX a hip new abbreviation for Lacrosse? Or have airports somehow become a high school sport? I hope not, I would lose so badly.

Now I want a spin-off series of webisodes about Allison Argent versus the Totally Evil Popular Girls.

Curious. Both the spinning business and the ever-tantalising ‘OMITTED’. Don’t omit things, Jeff Davis, it’s rude!

Well that didn’t happen

That didn’t happen either

UM NO JEFF THAT IS DEFINITELY NOT WHAT HAPPENED. THAT IS LITERALLY THE EXACT OPPOSITE OF WHAT HAPPENED.

No theatrics here!

Pity this bit got cut. Not a huge difference to the scene — we still got Derek’s casual disregard for others’ property and heavy-handed metaphor — but Derek’s control is a big deal to Scott, and that could have done with more emphasis.

*Curiosity intensifies*

Good to know that half-second sight gag was planned from the start.

Huh. I always thought he’d said “there were bite marks on the lady.” Also, he didn’t mention Allison here on screen.

*Curiosity intensifies further*

Good instincts, Scotty! I wonder how much that was his burgeoning wolfy-sense, and how much was just genre-savvy.

Ooh, that’s different - on the show Scott is not only surprised to see Stiles approaching the car, but desperately trying to signal him to stop.

This is not an Ok, go face. This is a face that says Stiles, no. At least they rhyme?

The Sheriff is the Sheriff again. Order is restored to the universe.

The only ‘squealing sound’ I remember in this scene was from Stiles’s long-suffering Jeep.

And now— oh. Oh holy hell. Look at this.

yes yes we saw that part but Scott’s gone he’s run off

What the figgins no he hasn’t!

Oooooh Scotty no this is stalking behaviour. Do not eat your Stiles, that is bad manners.

Not the Jeep! Stalking your BFF is one thing but assaulting an innocent Roscoe is just bang out of order. No wonder Stiles abandons his calm entreaties to yell at him, you can’t hit a man in the Jeep and expect him to keep his temper.

I’m biting my nails are you biting your nails

SDKJHADFKLASDFA EXTENDED KEYSMASH!

I KNOW BUD IT IS VERY SCARY

THAT’S GOOD STILES DRIVE OUT FROM UNDER THE RAMPAGING WEREWOLF WHAT COULD GO WRONG

RAMPAGING WEREWOLVES ARE VERY PERSISTENT AREN’T THEY

well he wasn’t going to hit him what do you think he is an Argent

SDFLKJHGFLKLSDJFH

WHAT THE HELL

SOMEBODY CALL TYLER AND DYLAN AND FILM THIS SCENE, STAT!!

It’s like all those times when--

O_O

YEAH NO FashgfadsUCKING KIDDING, JEFF!

*deep breath*

Add that to the list of places the Argents have canonically lived. Unless it’s a reference to [Coach Finstock voice] cream cheese.

*Curiosity levels approaching critical*

A ball-peen hammer? Oh, Coach.

A crack? In his helmet? What and how?

Sensible, random Lacrosse (LAX?) player. Your captain is a douche.

Aw, we didn’t get Scott’s serial killer POV here.

Bahaha he never even went for a ‘slap check’ (whatever that is), he just growled at him from five feet away.

Interesting indeed, Coach! He doesn’t reply to Stiles in the show. This way it gives the impression that he’s going to be doing some investigating, maybe Scott will have to be more careful around him.

Lol, the referee never called the goal. Coach argued with him, then blew the whistle himself, and the refs just went with it.

That’s a different take - that in his heightened state the sight of Argent coming towards him triggered his flight response. We didn’t see Argent walking onto the field until after Scott was long gone, so there was no suggestion that Scott was reacting to him at that time. We do see an ominously thoughtful look on Chris’s face!

Awwww sweet. You hold onto that brief second, wolf boy.

I WONDER who it’s gonna be, say it with me now—

Oh hey! We’re on first name terms with our stalker now.

wait--

what

Aaaahahaha no he doesn’t, as if Derek Actual Hale would smile and greet someone. Jeff you’ve been smoking again.

(Or, more likely, trying to seed the aborted Jackson Hale plotline.)

Another ripper of a script! Some fun extra moments -- and nail-biting ones -- as well as a few where the production obviously decided to go in a different direction. We got Scott marvelling at Derek’s control, Melissa trolling her son like the A+ parent she is, Scott having extremely good spidey-senses for a canid, Derek as a luring lurker who lurks, even when the script tells him not to, this man cannot be stopped, not to mention everybody’s favourite Greenberg, with an actual face! Or leg. Whatever.

All outshone by the Jeep attack scene. Why, oh why, Jeff? Do you hate us?

Nahhh. On reflection, I can see why they cut it. This episode showcased Scott’s lack of control over his wolfy side, but we already had a fair bit of Feral Scott -- on the lacrosse (sorry, LAX) field and peeping into Allison’s window -- so that point was made. And we’d already had him attacking Stiles specifically, in that excellent locker room scene. But the visual of Scott wolfed out and roaring to the sky from atop the Jeep would have been something to see. Not to mention that moment of terror as Stiles finally sees what his friend has become, in the clear light of day, no helmet or darkness to obscure him.

It would have been the perfect punctuation to Scott’s complaint from just prior: “Stop enjoying this so much!” Stiles still thinks he’s in a superhero origin story. But Scott is stuck in a nightmare horror.

At least he got his perfect moment.

Sekaiichi Hatsukoi Onodera Ritsu no Baai Special Book *Bonus Translation*

SPOILERS POTENTIALLY FOR SEKAKOI

Another small treat for my Sekakoi kiddos!!!

I was happy to see the reception from the provisional translation of chapter 27 (I know some people like to wait for the cleaner translation, and that’s totally legit, but I see that some people are impatient like me lmao), so I wanted to do one more as a post-new years treat. As far as I know, this short hasn’t been translated into English yet. It’s a short where Onodera and Takano go on a gasp date!!! No smut (sorry) but it’s super cute - I promise.

As with before - I’m not a scanlation group, and I am sorry that I don’t know how to do that. The scans are NOT mine. They’re Draw Club’s （同萌繪）again - please go check them out if you speak Chinese. They are amazing. http://bbs.oiacg.com/forum.php. The translation, though, is. Again, my translations tend to the liberal end of interpretation and they are also from Chinese, not the original text. Any mistakes are mine alone. And, Sekaiichi hatsukoi belongs to the great Shungiku Nakamura. (I hear she’s having a lottery chosen meet and greet for the 10th anniversary of Sekakoi in Japan - mannn I wish I could go!!!) Please go support her work - SubLime just came out with 9 in English!

Link is here: http://www.verydm.com/chapter.php?id=82583

Sorry everyone - someone just let me know about the read-more feature. Thank you for your patien

Page 1:

[Today was supposed to be a real, bona-fide day off – a whole day with no plans whatsoever.

So then why?

Am I like this again,

Sleeping on the floor….]

Bzzt bzzt bzzt bzzt (on the phone it says – Takano-san; Cell number)

** **RItsu (thoughts): Oh, riiight, I was exhausted half to death at the drinking party last night and when I came back I collapsed on the floor and fell right asleep…

(My body hurts)

RItsu (thoughts): I really shouldn’t go to these company drinking parties…

page 2:

On cell:

Sender: Takano-san

Message: Do you have time? It’s urgent.

Ritsu (types): I’m kinda busy though…

Sends

(thoughts) Yes, this is actually true. Because, today I really need to think of a way to clean up this room…

Ba-donk ba-donk (washing machine)

Ritsu (thoughts): Ugh why did I try to stuff so much in there?

ding dong ding dong

page 3:

Ritsu (thoughts): Who could it be? (t/n ummm)

Ritsu: I’m com-

Takano (through the intercom): You’re free, right?

[Oh crap!!!]

Ritsu: Very sorry about this, but I really am busy today.

Takano (through the intercom): Yesterday at the drinking party, you just said, “tomorrow, I’m going to sleep the whole day…”

Rtisu: Huh? No, I definitely didn’t!

Takano (through intercom): You did.

Ritsu: We-well that was obviously just me saying whatever because I was drunk. I’m very sorry, but I do have things to get to.

Ritsu (thoughts): Why would I want to see Takano-san on such a rare and valuable day off?

Okay.

Gotta clean. Gotta clean.

**Ding dong ding dong ding dong ding dong **

**Ding dong ding dong **

Ritsu: HEY!!!!

**Ding dong ding dong **

page 4:

Takano: You have bedhair.

Ritsu: skslkejrisodj

Takano: I want to see this.

Ritsu: Whaa? So this is the so-called urgent matter you needed me for?

Takano: That’s right. Today is the last day it’s showing.

I’ll go buy tickets.

RItsu: Hahhh???

page 5:

Ritsu (thoughts): It was only because he said it was important that I grudgingly came with. But in the end it turns out to just be a movie. What the heck…?

Ah, but I guess it sort of works out. I _have _wanted to see this movie for a while. It has been super popular, but because work has been too busy, I haven’t had time to go and see it. Should I go buy the program?

Takano: Here.

Ritsu: Huh?

Takano: I figured you were the sort that likes to buy the program, so I got you one.

Ritsu: Oh, ah. Thank you! How much was it? (Also the tickets…)

page 6:

Takano: No need.

Ritsu: What? Um, no, no I want to pay!

Takano: I already said you don’t need to. What do you want to eat?

Ritsu: Ah, okay then I’ll cover the food expenses. What would you like to eat, Takano-san?

Takano: Salty popcorn. The portions are big, so we can share.

Ritsu: Oh? Then can we get the caramel flavored?

Takano: Nah, I want the salty kind.

(chatter: Goodbye! Thank you for your patronage. Please dispose of your trash here. walks out walks out)

Ritsu (thoughts): Ahh!!! That was great!!

Takano: Pretty good, huh.

Ritsu: Yes! I thought they did a great job with the script!

page 7:

Ritsu: And that one scene was so awesome.

Takano: Are you hungry? There’s a place near here that I’ve been wanting to try.

Ritsu: Huh? Oh, sorry, I think I’ll-

Takano: I already made a reservation.

Ritsu: Huhhh??!!

RItsu (thoughts): Ah. I’ve also really wanted to try this place.

Takano: Excuse me, I’ve made a reservation under Takano.

Ritsu (thoughts): What can I say…?

page 8:

Takano: This isn’t bad.

Ritsu: Yes! It’s pretty sweet, and very tasty, huh?

Takano-san, how did you hear of this place?

Takano: I asked some of the girls in production which restaurants were up and coming recently…

Ritsu: Ah, I also do that sometimes. Girls really are on the pulse of these things, aren’t they?

Takano-san, do you come to this sort of place often?

Takano: Sometimes. After all, our target audience is female, so we should probably have some sort of grasp on these sorts of trends.

Ritsu: Ah, that’s true..

Takano: What do you want to do next? I was planning on going to buy a couple things before I headed home. You?

page 9:

Ritsu: Eh? Ah, well, actually… Takano-san, so what was that important thing that you mentioned?

Takano: Huh?

Ritsu: Eh? Oh, because up until now, we’ve just been seeing movies and getting a bite, so…

Takano: It is “just doing that” that is important, stuuuupid. This is a date.

Ritsu: HUH?!!! **Bangs on table **DAAA-??!

Takano: What? You just realized this? (How slow can you get?)

page 10:

Ritsu: I-I’m going to the restroom!! Stands up abruptly

Takano: Yes, yes, yes.

Shaaaa

RItsu: ….

A date…

He has the gall to call this a date…?

I guess this is why we would go see a movie and then go get lunch. Why didn’t he just tell me this up front? If I had known from the beginning, then I could have-

Could have …

page 11:

**ding ding **

(Your card doesn’t have any money)

Takano: You’re a hot mess.

Ritsu: AND YOU’RE ANNOYING!

RItsu (thoughts): After that, I was dragged to go shopping and after that, we even ate dinner together.

Damnnit…

Woman 1: Look, look, isn’t that guy hot?

Woman 2: Ah, for real!!

Woman 1: Let’s go talk to him!

Woman 2: Eh?? But he looks like he is waiting for someone!!

Woman 1: Well it doesn’t hurt to try, huh?

After all, sometimes getting a hot guy is the best cure.

Woman 2: Ah, I totally agree.

Ritsu: Ta- TAKANO-SAN!

page 12:

Ritsu: Sorry to keep you waiting.

Takano: Oh.

Woman 1: Ah.

Woman 2: Look, he did have someone with him after all.

Ritsu: steals glance

Takano: What?

Ritsu: Nothing.

beep

Takano: What is it?

**Beep **

Ritsu: Nothing, it was just that those girls over there were planning on hitting on you.

Takano: Me? Why?

Ritsu: They said that hot guys were the best cure or something like that. Happy?

page 13:

Takano: Ehh. I really don’t care.

[The car will presently be pulling into line 2]

Ritsu: Is that so? Ahh, well, that’s true, you’re probably so used to it by now!

Takano: Or, I should say

Shwaaaa

[Please line up behind the white line.]

Takano: I don’t have any interest in anyone but you.

page 14:

Takano: What, are you jealous of those girls?

Ritsu: Why would you think that?

Takano: Well that’s the reason you’re all bent out of sorts, no?

RItsu: N-no! I just!!

Takano: Just what?

Ritsu: …

Ding

page 15:

RItsu: Forget it, good night. **Kchk kchk **Thanks for the program and the meal and such.

Takano: Onodera.

I know you might be feeling kind of tricked about all of this.

But… thank you for today. For me, getting to go to all these places with you and just chat normally.. it makes me really, really happy.

page 16:

Takano: Good night.

page 17:

bang

slide slide slide

Ritsu: ….

God that pisses me off.

page 18:

[In the end, I spent the whole day with Takano dragging me around,

seeing a movie together,

having noon tea together,

shopping together,

getting lunch together,

And then he kisses me and says that he’s “really, really happy.”]

Ritsu (thoughts): “Date,” huh..?

[At first I felt totally tricked, but the movie was good, and the tea and meal were both delicious, and the shopping was enjoyable, and the most important thing is …]

page 19:

[That I was able to just chat normally with Takano-san. Well, putting aside whether or not it was a date for now, if I really think about it, doing these sorts of things together ]

Ritsu (thoughts): ..Yes. It really is a first.

page 20:

[Although all my clothes are still piled in the washing machine,

and the room hasn’t been cleaned at all and is in shambles always,

……….

…. Takano-san.

Today,

I also,

Was very happy.

My Reaction to “Gotham” S2E12

Non-chronological order reaction post? Yep. Probably should be working on the other ones instead? I’m gonna say yep.

I just wanna see how they do Mr. Freeze here. If they wreck him, then I might be a little mad. I’m still mad at Ed- I never liked Ed.

AN: I managed to record my reactions to this episode and hopefully I can transcribe what I said into this post.

Oohhh, flashback!

Oooh, drumroll!

They use a drumroll for the background music all the time when it comes to the GCPD.

“[Jim] You then pursued Cobblepot and his men, correct?” “Yes, but I was unable to locate them.“ *jaw drops in shock* Oh my God...

*claps with each word* Jim, you are lying under oath!

“At which point, you [JIm] decided to flee the city before law enforcement could question you?” “Yes, for that, I have no excuse other than to say I was concerned for the safety of my fiancée [Lee].“ *gasps* SHE SAID YES!!

Yeah, this is basically just a recap of what happened in the winter finale.

“Were you [Jim] present at the time of his murder?” “No, I was not.” Oh my God!

“Do you [Jim] have any information regarding the case that you have not shared with us?” “No, I do not.“ OH MY GOD, JIM!

“Were you [Jim] involved in Theo Galavan's murder?“ OH MY GOD, JIM!

“No, I was not.” OH MY GOD, JIM! OH MY GOD, YOU LIED!

*on verge of losing voice* JIM!

Lee!

Jim, you ass!

“Then what's wrong [Jim]?” “Nothing. Long day.“ LIES! YOU LIED UNDER OATH!

THIS IS SO FRUSTRATING!

“I [Barnes] believe your [Havey Dent’s] investigation has found no evidence of criminal wrongdoing.” “Careful. You're starting to sound like a lawyer.“ Hoo hooo...

Oswald C. Cobblepot? What’s Oswald’s middle name? Chester?

AN: It’s Chesterfield.

There’s that [Jerome cult] graffiti again!

Oh my God... he [Oswald] looks so mangy... and gross

Oh my God, they put a screwdriver in Butch’s stump?!? That’s... kinda awesome.

I like Tabitha’s look in this scene. Like A+

“I [Butch] bet that was your [Tabitha] plan all along, huh? You're just that fond of me.” “Strangely enough, I [Tabitha] am kind of fond of you [Butch].“ This is gonna come back and bite us in the butt in the S4 finale AAAHHH

“We [Tabitha and Butch] have history.“ *grimaces*

*Tabitha kisses Butch* Ohhhh! Ohhhh!!

Selina, what are you doing?!?

*Victor freezes a cop* Whoaa!!

What?!? Wait wait wait, Mr. Freeze has his tech before he becomes Mr. Freeze?!? What is this?

Oh my God, this is just the opening. Hoooly crap.

Yep.

Oh they didn’t play the theme at all!

Ha, Jim just strolls in like “Ah yes, a regular day!” and everyone’s like “...Jim?!?”

“That's it? No hug? No kiss? No "welcome back"?” “You don't deserve these lips.“ Heeheeheehee!

Jim’s like “...OK... I can roll with this...”

*Ed dips a rose in liquid nitrogen* Oooh, yay! Flashback to eighth grade science class!

“Which means your suspect wasn't using liquid nitrogen. He was using supercooled liquid helium.“ What?

Liquid helium?

Ed... control thy anger!

“I [Ed] found Mr. Cobblepot wounded and dying in the woods. I nursed him back to health. He owed me his life, which is why I trusted him when he said he had changed his ways. It was an innocent mistake.“ ...Really?

*Barnes brings Oswald in in handcuffs* Whoa!

Take a shot every time they use the word “skell” in this show.

How did they catch him [Oswald]?

Freakin’... Oswald...

“You [Oswald] confess to murder?” “Yes, I do. Proud of it. I'm not a criminal, you know? I'm just insane.“ Hooo...

Aaahhhhhhh....

“Jim, I'm trusting you. Don't make a fool out of me [Barnes].“ HOOOAAHHHH...

Y’know, so far, for an episode called “Mr. Freeze,” we’ve only seen Mr. Freeze once.

Oh wait, there he is! Speak of the devil!

[Victor’s] Just gonna leave this dead, frozen corpse in the back of his truck! I mean...

Nora!

God, the actress who plays Nora [Kristen Hager] looks like a mix between Michelle Williams and Brie Larson

“I [Victor] need to find the correct ratio of liquid helium to glycerol cryoprotectant.” “Now tell me [Nora] what that means in English, honey.“ *chuckles*

“I [Victor] can bring your temperature down to 200 degrees below zero, and I can stop this disease from killing you [Nora].“ What’s the disease though?

What’s the disease though? Like what is this tragic disease that Nora always has? They never explain what she has! I think “Batman and Robin” was the only one that actually tries to put a name to it.

Like it’s not really that contagious because he [Victor] just kissed her [Nora] on the forehead! What is it?!?

“Good news. Nygma did some digging, found one company in all of Gotham that makes liquid helium: Wayne Enterprises.” Oh but of course!

OK, so he’s [Victor] working with cryogenics... is it similar to what whatever Hugo Strange is doing at Indian Hill? It’s gotta be, right?

Oh, that [Victor’s basement lab] doesn’t look shady at all!

Frickin’ Ed!

“[Oswald] You doing okay? You look kind of funky.“ Hahaheehee!

Vitrification? That’s a word?

AN: It’s the process of turning a substance into glass, like in ceramics. Which is also used for cyro-preservation

*Victor turns on the basement lights* Whoaaa!

Oh my gosh, he [the corpse] is actually blue!

I don’t think the body can survive below -100 degrees. There’s no way!

AN: You can survive extremely cold temperatures for a moment, especially if concentrated on a very small patch of skin. The larger the surface and longer the exposure, the less likely that you’ll survive.

Oh my gosh, can we get more of this? Jim, Lucius, and Harvey going out for lunch? Can we have more of this?

Can we have more of the Crime Trio here?

It’s Proto-Team Batman!

I wanna know what that restaurant is...

Meanwhile at Arkham Asylum...

Please don’t tell me that is who I think that is...

Nope, OK.

Oh no, why am I thinking that? Jerome’s deaadd!

For now.

I want Oswald to have like this dramatic speech and then just prat-fall off the table.

*The Arkham inmates start to riot* Well that clearly didn’t work, now did it?!?!?

“Solution A14. I [Victor] knew it would work! I knew it! Ha! Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes!“ But the guy’s dead! He’s totally dead!

Why did the body melt?!? Why did it melt? It should not have melted. Whaa...

*Nora starts hacking up blood* Uhhh... call 911?!? Should we call 911 maybe? Can we please call 911 for Nora? Please?

“If you [Nora] have another attack and you don't have this medication, you could die.“ Yeah, what does she have?

I actually do like that we get time to get to know their [Victor and Nora’s] relationship. I do like that because half the time they’re like “Oh yeah, she’s already in ice!”

We get to see his motivation but we never get to see her as a character and how she interacts with Victor.

Goddd, who the crap is this?

Oh my gosh, this dude at the counter at the pharmacy is a diiiiiiccckkk! Oh my God!

Oswald just looks miserable!

OH MY GOD, THAT IS HUGO STRANGE!

Why is he at Arkham?!?!?

Oh my God, B.D. Wong is such a perfect choice for Hugo.

“Chief of Psychiatry?” Oh my God, NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

*Victor freezes the pharmacist* Whoa...

*Jim and Harvey accidentally run over one of the frozen victims* OOHHHHHHHH!

Oswald, for some reason, reminds me of one of those really snooty popular girls.

AN: Think Megan Fox from “Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen”

Oswald’s like “I’m gonna pour myself some tea. Why not?”

Or scotch, whatever that is.

I really like the focusing shots on Hugo’s eyes. Makes a really nice shout-out to the comics.

“And don't worry; here at Arkham we have a number of intensive treatment programs.“ Uhhhh....

Yeah, I’m with you, Oswald. I would not trust Strange with an inch of my life!

So does Nora know that he’s [Victor] dragging dead, frozen bodies downstairs to experiment on?

“Victor? Honey?” God, she’s gonna go downstairs and see it! Noooo!!!

Noooo, she’s gonna see it! Nooooo!!!

No, I don’t like this, I don’t like this, I doooooonn’t like thiiiss! Not at all!

She is gonna see all of this!

“Frice?”

‘I’m really good with names,’ are you, Harvey?!?

*continues to contemplate the correct pronunciation of VIctor’s last name for the rest of the episode*

Where’s the freeze guuuunnnn?

Noooooo my God, is he [Victor] gonna target Jim and Harvey?

WHOA!

“See no evil, do no evil.” *jaw drops open in shock*

WWWWWHAAAAAAT?!?

“My husband did terrible things. But he did those terrible things for my sake. I'm dying. He wants to save me [Nora].” What are you dying of?!?

What are you dying of? Just tell them!

Whoa...

*Victor walks into the precinct* Ohhhhhh snap!

What?

Wait, why are there other people claiming Victor’s work as their own?

*gasps when the frozen body on the lab table is gone*

Ummm... exCUSE mee?!?

*gasps and covers mouth in shock when the victim is revealed to be thawed out and alive*

“I'm [Victor] coming for you, Nora. I'm coming to save you.“ She’s not gonna be there!

Strange, what the hell are you doing?

God, that’s so hard because I know two Dr. Stranges: one’s a good guy and ones a bad guy.

*yells in frustration*

Holy crap, I forgot Indian Hill’s under Arkham, isn’t it?

“Treatments will include immersive aversion therapy and radical psychotropics.“ Ummm, I didn’t know what half of that meant, but it isn’t good.

WAIT, PSYCHOTROPICS CHANGE BEHAVIOR! WHA-

“Our young lady arsonist refuses to cooperate with our experiments...” *gasps* Firefly!

Oh my God, noooo...

“Hello, Mr. Freeze.” *cue small high-pitched yell*

*jams out to ending theme*

“Love…For Better or Worse” …. Pt. 3

After I revealed that Moses and I are trying to have a baby, my friendship with Levi quickly dissolved. I thought that sharing the news with him and Dana would be for the best and give me the feeling of support I needed from my closest friends. Humph unfortunately, I found out the hard way that doing that shit would only lead to bigger issues. While Dana was still on the fence about our decision, she continued to stand by me. Once she gave her “two cents”, she let it go and said she had my back no matter what. Levi, on the other hand, lost his mothafuckin mind. When I came into work that Monday, his extra ass abrasively approached me with more of BS, trying to get me to change my mind. This went on for the rest of the week and progressively got worse each day that passed. He wouldn't let that shit go, even after I asked him to drop it several times, and continued to make working with him virtually impossible. By the end of the week I had enough and told him that if he didn’t stop, I would have to put him on leave, (paid of course), until he either got it together or found another studio. He felt as though I crossed the line giving him an ultimatum and decided to quit. At first, guilt set in and even though he was clearly in the wrong, I felt terrible. We were friends for years and for shit to end the way it did, bothered me to no end. As much as this situation hurt, I couldn’t let it bring me down.

I landed an appearance on a popular modeling show for one episode as a stylist and guest judge. Moses and his old assistant Shea, who is now working for him again, came with me to Bridgeport. These past few days have been heaven thanks to Moses. Enjoying my time out here with him made me forget all about Levi and Nica’s phony asses.This trip was beyond perfect. I nailed my appearance on set today and even booked two of their supermodel hosts for major red carpet events. I was feeling great and couldn’t wait to share everything with my man. I practically ran in our suite, taking off my jacket and heels, and hurried into the kitchen where I figured he would be. He was there, looking pissed as shit though, accompanied by a worried Shea and a open bottle of Hennessy.

"You know I’ve been tryin to reach you all fuckin day, Leah?”

“OOOK??....And I’ve been filming all day. My phone was dead when I got to it...What’s with the attitude?”

“You gotta be kidding me...” He said, slowly moving his hands down his face. “See this is why I said you need an assistant. Nobody can get in contact with you and you’re fuckin oblivious to the shit that is goin on outside of your little world!”

“Alright...Number one, you need to fix the way you’re comin at me....And number two, what’s wrong with being on my grind?? I had an assistant, Remember? But he bailed when he got checked!”

“Oh he’s done way more than just that....”

“What do you mean by that??” I asked, confused as hell.

“Okay...And I think it’s time fore me to go.” Shea said, as she quickly got up. “Mo, I’ll speak with you in the morning after I go over everything with the PR and legal teams. I’m also gonna speak with yours, Leah, if that’s okay with you, just to make sure everybody’s on the same page. Oh and both of you please stay off social media.”

As soon as she left and I plugged up my phone. Emails, voicemails, and text messages flooded in like crazy. I frantically started to go through them when Moses came over to explain what was going on.

“Before you look at all that, let me tell you what happened. There’s a leaked recording of you and Levi arguing, going around everywhere. I listened to that shit, and it’s definitely you and that mothafucka discussing some real personal shit. Humph, shit in my opinion he has no business knowing.”

“Whaa?? How???” I said, taken aback by all of this.

“Exactly. It’s obvious his bitch ass was recording you the last week he was at your shop and leaked it to try to embarrass you. Pretending to be a concerned friend when he really just wanted to fuck up your happiness. Now while the shit he did is messed up, there is somethin on your end that I have a problem with.”

“Let me guess, that I confided in my friend??” I said, rolling my eyes.

“Yes! Shit, I can understand tellin Nica or even Dana, they can be trusted, but you told Levi?? Man, anybody could see that mothafucka was a snake and opportunist, I don’t see why you couldn’t. Do you even realize the crazy shit he was goin on about?? Got me soundin like a sleaze sayin: “He had an affair with his assistant”, “Where’s the ring?”, “You gonna be baby momma #1″, “Ya’ll tryin to get pregnant is his way of keepin you quiet so he can do him.”, “it’s gonna be a hush baby.” You damn sure ain’t help the situation either. You didn’t defend us, all you said was “it’s not like that” and asked him to drop it. Actually, it sounded like you were starting to believe his BS.”

“Are you fuckin kidding me? You know damn well I don’t!”

“Well it sounded like it. Shit, If I felt that way hearing you, how the fuck you think everybody else is gonna take it? You basically confirmed that crazy shit. So not only will people believe his crap, but now everyone knows our business. Shit like this is the reason why you don’t need to be running your mouth to just anybody. Nica and Dana are the only ones that should know anything. That’s why I keep all my shit private and only a select few mothafuckas know what’s goin on my life.”

“Oh trust me I know, and I’m not included in that circle...Always having secret clubhouse meetings and shit. Your circle is your fuckin uncle, his best friend, and your childhood friend. Sean, TJ and Mason are your family. I told Levi and Dana because they were the only close friends I had left, Moses. Not everybody has family like you!” I said, as I started walking away.

“What about Nica?? If you would’ve just talked to her, found out why she pulled away instead of sayin fuck it, none of this would be happening right now.”

“You swear you know everything...Nica doesn’t want to fuck with me because she has a married stick up her ass and acts like I’m beneath her. You trying to blame me for any of this shit is plain stupid. Sharing happy and exciting news with friends is what anybody else in my situation would do. No one expected this shit!” I yelled, as my voice began to crack. “Humph, honestly, if you didn’t fuck her seconds after I broke up with you, this shit would’ve never happened.”

“So you takin cheap shots now? With shit we supposed to have moved past?”

“No.” I said, turning around. “I’m just saying...Levi adored you before that happened. He was there for me through my divorce, and was only concerned about me getting fucked over like before. Even though badgering me wasn’t the way to do it, he still cared. You know...How do we even know he’s the one that leaked it? I have plenty of staff in my shop and someone could’ve easily planted some shit in my office.”

“Yeah, that’s not a reach at all...” He said, sarcastically. “You and ya moms are the only ones who have access to it. You need to open your eyes, Leah.”

“Wateva Mo.” I said, walking up the stairs. “I’m gonna go take a shower and look through all these messages. You have fun bitching to yourself Moses.”

Before I got in the shower and against Shea’s advice, I checked Levi’s twitter page. I didn’t want to believe that Levi would do this, but deep down, I knew better. I figured if he was truly innocent or still cared, he would post something alluding to that. Humph, well let’s just say what I saw couldn’t be further from what I hoped. He said some real fucked up shit including: “That’s what her dumb ass gets”, “Being a baby momma suits her well”, and when asked if he leaked it “I plead the, 1. 2. 3. 4. FiF on that one.” That was all I needed to see, to finally accept that he was definitely the one who did this. As I continued to scroll, I saw an old post from Nica he re-tweeted. I foolishly went on her page and saw it too was filled with BS. I couldn’t believe what she was saying from, “Have a baby by me baby, be a millionaire”, to “I guess morals go out the window when money’s involved.”, and “Fertility issues my ass, bitch just want a pay day from my bother.” While Levi’s actions hurt, the shit she said, killed me. Nica was my best friend, my “twin”, for damn near eight years and for her to say that shit was beyond foul. And to bring up my fertility issues, claiming their false?? There were no words. As tears streamed down my face, I threw my phone and headed to take my shower. When I came out after taking longer than usual, Moses was waiting for me on the bed.

"You came up here to argue again?”

“Nah. Actually, I came up here to apologize. Even though I still believe Levi is responsible for this shit, I shouldn’t have blamed you. You feel me? I was just pissed. I also wanna apologize for bringing up Nica to you.”

“I take it you saw the shit she posted?...”

“Oh yeah...and it’s fucked up as hell. I don’t know what the fuck is wrong with her. After I cursed her ass out she took it down though, but that shit still pisses me off. Whateva the reason ya’ll ain’t friends, you’re family, and always have been. You, shit we, didn’t deserve that.” He said, lookin up at me. “Are you aight?”

“Nope...” I said, as I sat next to him. “But, I’m working through it.”

“Well, I’m here for you, and so is Dana. She had Sean call me since you was in the shower. Talkin bout she wants to drag Levi by his man bun and orange ass hair.” *laughing* “Why don’t you give her a call? I’ll take care of your messages and work on the statement I’m gonna post with Shea.”

“You sure you wanna personally put it out?”

“Of course...We’re tryin to start our family and people need to hear the truth coming from me. Shit, shut all them haters up. Now I’m not going to talk about the fertility thing, that’s your business, I just want to address everything else.”

“Ok...” I said, smiling as I grabbed his hand.

“Love you, beautiful...” *kissing me* “Even with your matching hat and slippers”

“Love you too...Wait!..Jerk!” I yelled giggling, as I punched him in the arm. “See just for that, you gonna have to wait to get all up in this...”

“Ha, I take it back then. You know what, let me hurry up and take care of that shit.”

“Yeah, you do that.” I said, as we laughed.

While he was downstairs, I had a long convo with Dana that surprisingly made me feel at ease. I guess as you grow in life and become happier, you find out who’s truly there for you and who’s not. Even though I’m still hurt by the actions of two people who were supposed to be life-long friends, I can’t let it fuck up my plans for the future. I’m still going to be successful and my man and I will continue to work on our family.

[Idol Story] Kanata Shinkai - Sweets Groovy

Location: Seisou Hall Kitchen Characters: Kanata & Niki Season: Autumn Writer: Maiko Nishioka (Happy Elements) Unlocked in: [Taste of a New Dish] Kanata Shinkai

TL Note:

Seppuku (切腹): A form of ritual suicide where samurai warriors stab their stomach in order to retain their honour, as opposed to dying at the hands of the enemy.

Even raindrops can penetrate a rock (雨だれ石を穿つ): A Japanese proverb meaning constant effort will result in success.

Kanata: *Hm hm hmm* ♪

Let’s “mix” it together well. Make a “circle” like the “pattern” of a blue-ringed octopus~ Circle circle~♪

Hmm? Who is that? So noisy~ I’m finally having a fun time “cooking”. I would like you to be “quiet”.

Niki: W-What’s goin’ on!? This smell… it stinks!

Kanata: Ohh. It’s Niki. You were the “source” of the “footsteps”. Hello~☆

Niki: Gyah! What’s with this disastrous scene!?

There’s a lot of stuff with fish sticking out of it all lined up on the table and it looks like a scene straight outta hell! The fishy smell is also awful!

Hm…? *Sniff, sniff* I’m getting a deadly whiff and a faint butter, milk and chocolate scent…?

What’s… this trapezoid-looking object with lots of shishamo fish sticking out of it…?

Kanata: This would be sea anemone chocolate.

Niki: S-Sea anemone chocolate!?

Kanata: Yes. It is actually a chocolate “flavoured” “cupcake” decorated with shishamo fish, to be precise. I was making “cookies” just now~♪

Niki: Chocolate, cupcakes and cookies? N-no… there’s no way…

Then, you’re saying the objects here are all food!? You didn’t just torture these fish!?

Kanata: How rude~ Hmph. I won’t do such a thing to the “fishes”. I’m making delicious “sweets”.

Niki: No no! If you were, it wouldn’t look as disastrous as this, right?

By the way, Shinkai-kun, weren’t you making lunch in the kitchen dorm during the “Old-Fashioned Sports Festival”? If you were then how come–

(Hm? Wait a minute… Now that I think about it,)

(I think Shinkai-kun and Tenshouin-kun were more or less like assistants and the one who did most of the cooking was actually Kazehaya-kun…)

(Don’t tell me Kazehaya-kun knew this disaster was gonna happen and protected the peace of the kitchen!? He truly is just like an invincible guardian deity…!)

Kanata: I suppose we did make “lunch boxes” during the “Old-Fashioned Sports Festival” together.

I became more “interested” in “cooking” after making “chocolate” during “Chocolate Fest” last year.

I’m “challenging” myself to making “sweets” today.

The “mackerel chocolate” I made during “Chocolate Fest” wasn’t very “popular”. It’s very strange, isn’t it?

But it can’t be helped. The outcome cannot be changed, after all.

That’s why I’m doing my best to make “sweets” that will be “popular” with everyone. I’m doing what you would call “revenge”.

But I was in a “pickle” because I didn’t have anyone to “taste test” for me. It would be “meaningless” if I made it and ate it myself.

This is the perfect timing. Niki, would you like to be my “taste tester”~?

Niki: T-Taste test!? I’m gonna have to eat this!? No no no no! No, thank you!

Kanata: Oh~ Why not? These are all “sweets” I put “all of my efforts” into. I’m sure they’ll be delicious~

Niki: No no! You’re lying, right!? No matter how positively you try to look at it, it’ll still be gross! You can’t even call this cooking. This is sacrilegious towards the ingredients–

(...Hm? Wait.)

(If… If I don’t become the taste tester… What will happen to these poor ingredients!? Will they be thrown into the rubbish bin just like that…!?)

U-Uu… Ughhhhhhh!

AaAAh! If you’re gonna abandon and waste these ingredients, then committing seppuku[1] would be better!

Fine! I’ll be your taste tester!

Kanata: Whaa ♪ Thank you very much~ I “made” many so please “eat” a lot~ Here, please enjoy ☆

Niki: Ugh… It smells awful. My saliva is gone and the inside of my mouth is really dry!

I’m familiar with these ingredients so they shouldn’t be inedible, but to think I’d hesitate…!

No no. Niki Shiina! Now’s the time to show how manly you are… There’s nothing in this world that isn’t edible ☆ Thanks for making this!

……………

Kanata: *Poke, poke… poke poke* Heey, Niki~?

Hmm. His “face” has gone “deathly pale”~

He ate all of it but by the looks of it, I didn’t succeed. It’s a shame.

Kanata: But I will not give up.

There is a saying that even “raindrops” can “penetrate” a “rock”[2].

All right, one more time at “revenge”. Let’s try this “challenge” again ☆

Niki: Please just graciously give it up! How are you so positive with this tragedy right in front of you!?

Kanata: Ah. Have you “woken” up? I’m glad to see you’re fine.

Niki: In my dream, I was trying to cross this beautiful river, but something like a strong sense of duty washed over me and I decided to turn back.

At this rate, it’s only a matter of time before someone from the dorm falls victim to Shinkai-kun’s cooking… As a chef, I really can’t deem something like this to be acceptable.

The kitchen is a place to make delicious food; it’s not supposed to be a murder scene.

That’s why I’ll help you make the sweets, Shinkai-kun!

Kanata: Hmm? I “feel” as though a lot of “rude” things were said towards me.

Well, it’s okay. It’s a good thing to have more “companions”.

“Ohisama” taught me the perfect “words” for such an occasion: it’s such “fine weather”, isn’t it? ♪

Kanata: *Clap clap clap* ☆ Niki, you’re amazing~

A tuna cutlet “rice bowl”, a sea bream “pie” and a “rice cracker” with crushed fish. There is also minced sardine “cookies”.

They look look so delicious~♪

Niki: Nahaha. I’m glad you’re satisfied with them~♪

But you helped too, Shinkai-kun. You mixed and kneaded the ingredients, so that was a huge help.

Kanata: Fufu. I might not have been “much help”, but it makes me “happy” to hear you say that.

Now then ☆

Niki: Hm? Shinkai-kun, why’re you rolling your sleeves up…?

Kanata: I don’t think I can unleash my “power” just by mixing and kneading the “ingredients”.

Niki: What…?

Kanata: And I have a few good “ideas” after watching you “cook”, Niki~

As “thank you” for making these delicious “sweets”, now, it’s my turn to show what “I can do”.

Niki: You’re not satisfied with just this!? Ah, wait– Stooooooop!
