SummerTime Melancholy ~ The Night Flowers I Look Up At With You

Giotto's Scenario

Chapter 1 ( 1 - 2 - 3 )

(1/5)

Giotto: Oh no, I only got a few days 'til the event…

(It's an event sponsored by a salon I often deal with. I wanna do what I'm asked to, but I wanna do it well.)

I think it’s ‘cause of the quantity, since new pieces are brought in every day.

(The sales pitch for this painting contest is that a critique by a working artist must be attached to each entry.)

It's nice to see so many aspiring young painters out there. I wanna go straight to that enthusiasm.

(However, no matter how many days go by, the number of entries that have yet to be judged is still a problem…)

I wonder if I'm spendin' too much time judgin' one work…

(But a critique that only points out the obvious might nip young sprouts in the bud. I wanna praise and develop their good points.)

–In this work, the rough sketch is somethin’ to work on, but the colors are nice and the theme’s original… Also, oh–

Salon owner: Hey, Giotto. I came to check on you. How’s it going? How’s the works’ review proceeding?

✦•��๑⋅⋯ ⋯⋅๑┈•✦

(2/5)

Giotto: Ah, greetings…

Salon owner: Wait, you're not done at all! What's this all about? This is…

Just a quick glance at the work and a quick comment! You're a successful artist, you can do it, right?

Giotto: Right, but a coarse critique could nip young sprouts in the bud… I wanna develop the good points of the artist through their painting. They can draw this much now. If they continue like this, they'll get better. And yet, I can't let my critique cause ‘em to break their brush–

Salon owner: Hey hey, what are you talking about! More entries will be coming in the future, you know? I don't want you to spend so much time on one that you won’t be able to look at the others! Everyone is waiting for your critiques.

Giotto: H-Huuh…

(... W-Will there be more of ‘em?)

Salon owner: Now that you understand, I’ll ask you to do it more quickly next time! I'll be back to check up on you!

Giotto: … I'll try my best.

✦•┈๑⋅⋯ ⋯⋅๑┈•✦

(3/5)

Giotto: (Nothin' decreases as the days go by, only work tasks pile up.)

–I wanna paint a picture… How long haven't I been paintin’?

(As an artist, I'm happy to be in the public eye and to be relied upon. However, I feel like I’m forgettin’ myself as a painter. I need some time to face myself.)

I serve as a judge for competitions and show up at various painting events. I wonder if I will be able to go easy on my job soon…

Salon owner: –Giotto, is this a good time?

Giotto: Ah, yes?

(Ugh. I'm afraid I'm gonna get another scolding 'bout the progress of the critique.)

If it’s 'bout the reviews, I'm still workin’ on 'em–

Salon owner: No, that's not what I’m talking about today. I need you to perform at the noon part of the event.

Giotto: Ya mean the live painting?

Salon owner: Exactly. There will be a fireworks display at night, but I'd like a successful painter like you to make the noon session a great success. I've also asked you to be a judge for the painting competition, so it’s just right, yeah?

✦•┈๑⋅⋯ ⋯⋅๑┈•✦

(4/5)

Giotto: I’m sorry, but I have other work to do as well, so I–

Salon owner: Huh!? Don't tell me you're going to turn it down!? I thought you would've accepted the offer without a second thought… I've also asked Raffaello to be your live painting partner.

Giotto: Raffaello?

(That guy also shows up in a lot of places, it must be tough for him…)

Salon owner: Well, don't be in such a hurry to give me an answer. You have a day to think about it.

Giotto: H-Huh…

Salon owner: I expect to hear a positive answer the next time I come back. Well then…

Giotto: (Even if he told me to think ‘bout it, what can I do?)

Hmm… I’m plannin’ on turnin’ it down, maybe I should consult with Raffaello directly?

(It sounds like he's been gettin' calls from everywhere, maybe he can give me advice with a similar situation.)

For now, I’ll just get today’s work done. I’m gonna make it in time for the event!

✦•┈๑⋅⋯ ⋯⋅๑┈•✦

(5/5)

Raffaello: … Sigh.

Giotto: Raffaellooo, ya there?

Raffaello: ! Giotto-san, welcome. Do you need something from me?

Giotto: Yeah. I’ve got somethin' I need to talk to ya ‘bout, can ya spare me some time?

Raffaello: You want to talk to me? … Actually– no.

Giotto: Oh? What’s wrong?

(Somethin' seems off here. Could it be something's botherin' Raffaello too?)

What’s troublin' ya? If you've got somethin' stuck in your chest, I'm here to listen!

Raffaello: Ah, well… That is right. I do not feel comfortable talking about it here, so can we go somewhere else?

Giotto: Oh? Yeah, fine for me. I'd also appreciate it if we could sit back and relax, instead of standin' around. Since we’re here, why don't we go out for a drink?

Raffaello: Yes, that would be nice. Then, how about the bar?

Giotto: Okay. Then I'll look for a place and make a reservation for a table. Why don't we meet up directly at the bar?

Raffaello: Of course. Then, the time–

gulp...... she's right behind me... isn't she.....?

According to flashbacks in chapter 7 of Reeling in the Lights, Mafuyu had astraphobia as a child. In chapter 8 she confirms that she's no longer scared of thunder.

“Your hand please, my lady: the villainous butler vows loyalty only to you” preview

꒰ ִ ֺ ⊹ @ notice ⊹ ֺ ִ ꒱ this translation may not be 100% accurate or contain creative liberties due to characterization purposes. if you enjoy, please consider reblogging, but please don’t repost these or claim these as your own!

— this is an upcoming collection event in the jp server with ★4 victor💀 and ★3 alfons🪞. in addition, there are stories for liam🐈, elbert🍎, william🌹, and jude⌛️.

Under the orders from an ‘evil king’s game,��� we became a butler and mistress.

Was this a fated mischief? Or perhaps an ingenious trap…?

Liam as a butler was reliable, his acting prowess almost overwhelming.

Liam: If you’re so close to me like that… I’m afraid that I can no longer stay a butler.

Lord Elbert as a butler was filled with an adoration as he diligently took care of you.

Elbert: Then, first, I will… I mean, please allow me to help you get undressed. [1]

William as a butler was flawless, leaving no room for a single error.

William: I apologize for having kept you waiting, my lady. I will prepare your breakfast. [2]

Alfons as a butler was purely upright in his duties. His extravagance having gone somewhere else, he never laid a finger on me.

Alfons: Would it be safe to say you wish for me, your butler, to do lewd things with you, my lady?

Jude as a butler spoke in a polite tone, without using his accent, but also wore a cold smile and seemed to always have a snide remark up his sleeve.

Jude: ——As you were late, I have come to pick you up, my lady.

Victor as a butler exuded a calm air with a sense of maturity.

And while being taken care of by him, I came to think that I wanted him to myself…

Victor: I may be a butler… but you mustn’t let your guard down, my lady.

V: If you say something too cute, I will end up wanting to shower you with kisses…

V: Do you happen to remember what I said when you dressed as a maid, Lady Kate?

V: That you should only give your heart and body to your partner if you think, ‘if it’s this person…’

V: If that’s the case… would it be alright to think that said person is myself?

——Just for today, he was an ever so slightly villainous butler. Now, who will you take to serve you?

NOTES:

[1] Since Elbert is a noble, he normally speaks using the “infinitive” or the dictionary form in Japanese, so that’s why he starts off saying [脱がせる] (nugaseru), which in this case means to help one undress — in the dictionary form. But since he is now a “butler,” he corrects himself from 〜る → 〜ます (masu), which is essentially like a bit of a ‘more socially respectful’ way for a butler to address a mistress.

[2] William speaks like Elbert under normal circumstances, but he does change his way of speaking as well to a more ‘respectful’ Japanese to denote that he is the butler and Kate his ‘higher standing’ lady.

Event - Chill Out Time ~Welcome to Antiques~

UR Kotobuki Reiji (Chill time for you) SR Ittoki Otoya (Chill place for you)

“Appearing in a drama, Reiji and Otoya are brainstorming themselves what type of store they will run, and the roles that they will play in the series. Then, Reiji suddenly remembers that he has received questions from viewers worried about their career paths on his radio show..."

This event is scheduled for the 17th-26th of September (JST).

[voidedjuice]

i like how most of arturia's "crines" mentioned in that lore thing the official twitter account posted involve stuff like

- inspiring a guy to declare himself emperor and campaign for rights for the infected

- getting a group of victorian soldiers to desert and become farmers instead of raiding a taran theatre

- whimsically lifting an elderly care home into the air with balloons and arts, to give the residents a bit of fun exitement :)

it gives a fun credence to the idea of her being laterano's criminal number one being less about her being the evilest person ever, and more bc she doesn't play by their (discriminatory and oppressive) rules

[aroacewxs]

listen. i can excuse many of the ensekai event name translations. some of them aren't too bad. some of them are worse than others. but i drawn the line at

are you trying to kill me

how can you OMIT the "quagmire" in "a canary sings in the quagmire." genuinely how.

a quagmire is a boggy body of water, one that is typically very unsafe to tread in.

the entire event is about how nene is stuck, and how she learns to overcome her own pride and insecurities as a singer. she's unstable, her footing is not firm. but she learns to stand her ground. she learns to trust in seiryuin, in kazamatsuri, in her friends who believe in her, and in herself especially. she makes her way out of the quagmire, onto safe shore.

and given the fact that this is a NENE event you can't just. RID HER OF HER WATER MOTIFS. GIVE MY GIRL HER WATER MOTIFS BACK. THEY'VE BEEN THERE SINCE MERMAIDS. IT'S NOT EVEN "SWAMP" OR "BOG" OR EVEN "POND."

"crisis" doesn't cut it!! i'm sorry it just doesn't!!

SummerTime Melancholy ~ The Night Flowers I Look Up At With You

Giotto's Scenario

Chapter 2 ( 1 - 2 - 3 )

(1/5)

Clerk: Welcome.

Giotto: It's Bondone, who had a reservation at the back of the room. My companion will come later.

Clerk: Yes, sir. I will show you to your seats.

… … …

Raffaello: –Giotto-san, sorry I’m late.

Giotto: Raffaello! I've been waitin' for a loong time~

Raffaello: My apologies…

Giotto: No no, I'm just kiddin'! I just got here too! See, I only ordered a drink!

(That guy, he's got a lot on his mind, huh? What happened…)

Raffaello: –What did you want to talk about in the atelier, Giotto-san? Let me hear that first.

Giotto: Oh, right. There’s gonna be an event in the near future sponsored by the salon Kuroda regularly deals with, right? I was asked by my superior to participate in the live painting for the event. I was told he asked ya to be my partner, is that true?

Raffaello: I was told that too. … I see, so you were talking about the live painting.

Actually, I have a problem with that too.

✦•┈๑⋅⋯ ⋯⋅๑┈•✦

(2/5)

Giotto: You're also wonderin' ‘bout participatin' in the live painting?

Raffaello: It is just… How should I put it?

Giotto: Ah, I rushed the conversation. My bad.

First of all, ya need to drink. Ya need to have a moist throat to talk. It’ll be better for ya to get ready to talk.

Raffaello: Thank you…

… … …

Giotto: –C’mon, Raffaello. Ya can order for more.

Raffaello: No, thank you. If I drink too much, I will get off track from what I want to talk about. I have had enough.

Giotto: Ya sure of that?

Raffaello: Yes.

… So, this is just a rumor, so I am not sure if it is true or not. But I heard that Ingres-kun was banned from the salon.

Giotto: Ingres? Why him again…

Raffaello: I think he caused a violent incident.

Giotto: A violent incident, ya say?

Raffaello: Yes– Ah, this is my fault. Because I made a fool like me his mentor, even if only temporarily. I was not able to guide Ingres-kun properly as a painter…!

✦•┈๑⋅⋯ ⋯⋅๑┈•✦

(3/5)

Giotto: It's not your fault, you know, Raffaello?

Raffaello: But I have not seen Ingres-kun since I heard that rumor. I feel like he adored me a lot before that. I think he also had some thoughts on my teachings. Because of a teacher like that, oh God.

Giotto: Did ya hear that from Ingres himself?

Raffaello: I cannot confirm that with him. First of all, I do not even know where he is.

Giotto: But that doesn't mean you…

Raffaello: And then, I wonder… I could not even draw a picture for some reason. Maybe I am no longer a good artist.

I do not think I would do well if I took on live painting in this condition.

Giotto: (He blames himself and sees everythin' in a negative light. That’s a bad tendency. If I don't do somethin', he's gonna break his brush. Before that happens, before his mind crushes, I must do somethin’–)

Hey, Raffaello!

Raffaello: … What?

Giotto: Join me in turnin’ down the live painting request!

✦•┈๑⋅⋯ ⋯⋅๑┈•✦

(4/5)

Giotto: (Raffaello thinks Ingres failed ‘cause of him. If I had been the perfect teacher, the one who could paint the perfect picture... I would’ve been able to guide the young talents well. Goin’ to live paintin’ in such a state would be like poisonin’ yourself.

Raffaello: Turning down the live painting request?

Giotto: Raffaello. We're artists. Whether it’s to resolve our problems or face ourselves, ain’t paintin’ supposed to be indispensable for living creatures like us?

So I came up with a great idea. And I want ya to go along with it.

Raffaello: Me?

Giotto: On the day of the event, why don't we do some live painting, just the two of us?

Raffaello: Live painting, just the two of us?

Giotto: Of course, it ain’t the kinda thing you'd bring in guests for. It's just us painting live. It’ll just be us doing live painting.

As people gather at the event site, the remote areas should be quieter. It wouldn't be a bad idea to pick up the brush in that distant place, unbound and unburdened by anythin’, would it?

Raffaello: … Fufu, it surely would be nice and easy-going.

Giotto: Right?

✦•┈๑⋅⋯ ⋯⋅๑┈•✦

(5/5)

Raffaello: However, for me painting is…

Giotto: Ya don't gotta try to finish it. That’s the kinda distraction it should be.

Raffaello: I see.

–I want to paint a picture.

Giotto: Me too.

Raffaello: Alright. Let us do it, just the two of us.

Giotto: Aight, then it’s a deal!

… … …

Giotto: Okay, today I gotta write critiques to the rest of the paintings. I'd like to get it done as soon as possible before my boss comes to check on me–

Salon owner: Good morning, Giotto. Let me ask this immediately, you'll take care of the live painting, right?

Giotto: Ah… My apologies, but I was thinkin’ of turnin’ it down.

Salon owner: What!? Even Raffaello said no, and now you too!?

Giotto: I'm sorry. I'll do a good job with the critiques for the competition…

Salon owner: I’m asking you to be really brisky with that, please! I'll be back to check on you!

Giotto: (... Even though it was my decision, it’s still hard not to, let’s say, “live up” to people’s expectations…)

Even so, I feel like I’ll be able to open up somethin’ thanks to the live painting with Raffaello.

Aight, I’ll do my best!

[thecoolerspringbon-t]

So tired, so stressed, so busy! but progress has been made… and that’s good, I think!

I just finished drawing the endings with the more people in them! (Epilogue, Skip Button & Zending) But if you ask me the Countdown Ending was a delight to draw among the others! Everyone in it is panicking and trying to turn the bomb off, it’s just looks so funny! I might do a little comic with them all, we’ll see… we’ll see…

Here’s our little Spring taking a break in the pink room:

She has been looking for her co-workers for a month now, hang in there Spring! I’m sure you’ll find them very soon! 💖

[w1f1n1ghtm4r3]

let me hear your thoughts, with true emotions, engrave them in those eyes.

[A3!] Event | Top of the Blue Sky | Episode 1

Banri: …

Misumi: Huh? Kumon, look, Banri’s over there~.

Banri: (Hm? That voice…)

Kumon: You’re right! I wonder if he’s on his way back from school.

Kumon: HEEEY, BANRI!

Banri: Damn, you don’t gotta yell so loudly. What do you want?

Misumi: Me and Kumon were just about to do a street act~. Do you wanna join us, Banri?

Banri: Sure, why not? You got a theme?

Kumon: The theme is delinquents!

Banri: Delinquents?

Kumon: Yeah. They recently dropped a spinoff manga of the crazy popular “Yankee Star” manga.

Kumon: It’s super interesting, so I wanna be a delinquent too!

Banri: Gotcha. I mean, can’t say I haven’t been interested in that manga too.

Kumon: Really!? Then I guess I’ve got no choice but to lend it to you next, Banri!

Banri: The hell do you mean you don’t got a choice? 

Misumi: I’ve been really into doing delinquent etudes lately too. I’ve been doing them with a leaf in my mouth like this~.

Banri: Nah, you know there ain’t too many of that kinda delinquent nowadays, right?

Misumi: Huh, really? I got it from a manga I borrowed from Azami~.

Banri: That’s prolly ‘cause it’s an over-the-top delinquent manga from ages ago.

Kumon: It makes sense that you’d know a lot about delinquents, Banri. You’re just like a real delinquent!

Banri: …Hey, the fuck you mean I’m like a delinquent?

Kumon: Because it’s true. I mean that as a compliment now!

Banri: “...Quit fuckin’ with me. Today’s the day, I’m gonna wipe that damn smirk off your face.”

Kumon: !

Kumon: “That’s my line, bastard!”

*Kumon throws a punch and Banri dodges*

Banri: “Hah!”

*Banri swings back*

Misumi: “Hey, hey, it ain’t fair that just the two of ya get to get along like that. Count me in. Hyah!”

*Misumi kicks and Banri and Kumon dodge*

Kumon: “A flying kick!?” 

Banri: “Goddamn, he’s for real.”

Passerby A: Huh, is that a fight?

Passerby B: No, it’s a street act! But wow, that’s impressive…!

· • —– ٠ ✤ ٠ —– • ·

*Applause*

Banri & Kumon: Thank you so much!

Misumi: Thanks for watching, everyone~!

Kumon: That street act was so much fun!

Misumi: Yeah! It was really, really fun~. Thanks for joining us, Banri!

Banri: No problem. I mean, I usually have fun with it too.

???: Excuse me…

Banri: Hm?

???: You’re part of MANKAI Company, right?

Banri: Yeah. You know us?

???: Of course, I’ve even come to see your plays before. I’ve always been supporting you.

Kumon: Thanks, we’re glad to hear that!

???: Likewise. I just came to hand out flyers, but I ended up being lucky enough to see something so incredible like that.

???: Right. Can I give you one of these flyers? It’s an announcement for a newly opened rehearsal studio.

Banri: Ah, sure thing.

Misumi: There’s so many triangle patterns on this flyer! They’re very wonderful triangles~.

???: Haha, seems like all the work I put into designing it was worth it. Well then, I’ll be going now.

Banri: “Rehearsal Studio Blue Sky is Now Open!” huh? Seems like it’s pretty close by.

Kumon: I wonder if that guy just now is a staff member there or something.

Banri: Prolly. I’ll let Director-chan know about it in case we’ve ever got an opportunity to use it.

· • —– ٠ ✤ ٠ —– • ·

*Door opens*

Kumon & Misumi: We’re home~!

Izumi: Ah, welcome back, guys.

Banri: Perfect timin’. Director-chan, you ever heard of Blue Sky? Seems like it’s a new rehearsal studio in the area.

Izumi: Blue Sky, you mean the place that’s facing backlash on social media right now…?

Troupe Members: Huh, backlash?
