[TRANSLATION] AKANE BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION SHORT STORY(SS)🎉🎂
Tumblr media
【7:30 AM】
I opened my eyes.
"Ugh, what's this? On a day like today, I could have slept a bit longer..."
As I mumbled my complaints, drowsiness quickly caught up, and I let out a big yawn. Today is December 6th, my birthday that comes once a year. Mashiro, anticipating this, showed up the day before with some alcohol, and we spent the night drinking while crossing over the date, engaging in pointless conversations. Though I intentionally avoided looking at the clock, it must have been close to dawn when I finally went to sleep. Despite being completely sleep-deprived, my eyes felt strangely alert, and I couldn't bring myself to go back to sleep.
(I guess oversleeping isn't a habit of mine.)
Rubbing my sleepy eyes, I changed into sportswear and headed to the gym within the apartment building.
【8:55 AM】
After breaking a sweat at the gym, taking a shower, and returning—it's almost nine o'clock. As I entered the living room, Kurono's voice greeted me.
"Good morning."
"Morning... huh?"
On the table, there was a neatly sliced shortcake and a cup of black coffee.
"Since it's Akane-san’s birthday today."
"Oh, right."
Suppressing a strange ticklish feeling, I took a seat at the table. After midnight, Mashiro enthusiastically cut the cake and we had it with champagne. This was the remaining portion.
"When did we start having cake for breakfast?"
"I believe... it was the year after I moved in."
"Ugh, I don't want to count."
Because it's my birthday, cake for breakfast is a tradition—originating from a childish whim I expressed long ago. It was decided that the morning after cutting the birthday cake, the leftovers become breakfast. It's easy to say I'm not a child anymore, but stopping something I've done every year since childhood feels somewhat nostalgic.
(Well, it's only once a year.)
With a big bite, I see Kurono squinting happily. This happens every year.
"I said it last night, but again. Happy birthday."
"Thanks... by the way, where's Mashiro?"
"The bastard is passed out in the guest room."
Kurono's expression slightly turns stern.
"How late were you two up?"
"Oh... I don't remember."
"I should've kicked him out before the date changed."
"Well, let's enjoy cake without saying that."
【11:30 AM】
After soothing Kurono and finishing breakfast, I tackled the accumulated trivial tasks—checking audio files and documents, making calls, organizing mail, and other miscellaneous chores. Just as I was contemplating taking a break and stretching, my phone conveniently rang. The name on the screen was Haiji.
"What's up, Haiji?"
"Akane-san, happy birthday!"
"Oh, thanks."
"Did you drink with Mashiro-san yesterday?"
He’s quick to catch on—I thought. But yeah, that's probably it. Knowing Mashiro, he most likely posted about it on social media.
"We had a few drinks with the stuff he brought."
"Oh, unfair. I told him I couldn't make it."
"Are you coming today?"
"Yes. I'll come by in the evening."
"Once the meeting's done, I'll let you know. I'll pick you up, so be ready."
"Thank you!"
【4:00 PM】
In the afternoon, I headed to DigPro. Accompanied by Iwahara manager, we greeted the promoter and discussed concepts for next year's live performance. The enthusiasm on the other side was unexpectedly high, leading to an unplanned lengthy conversation.
"Oh, by the way. I saw BLAST."
"The energy is incredible, right? Not just RUBIA Leopard, but Impish Crow too. DigPro's newcomers are doing great."
"DigPro, led by RUBIA Leopard, has everyone with fantastic momentum."
"This was my first time on the scene, and I was surprised by the number of men more than I thought."
"There was that CM for the instrumental-only album a while back. It sparked quite a discussion even among hardcore rock fans."
"Oh yeah! That was amazing too!"
"I think there'll be more instrumentals on the next album. Looking forward to it."
I nodded in gratitude, suppressing the urge to say, "Did you finally realize we're not just a face for tie-ins?" I couldn't say it, not even if my life depended on it.
(What's his deal, holding a grudge against me?)
I stifled a laugh that was about to burst.
"So, here's the thing. We're thinking of expanding the venue a bit more next time. We're confident about the audience turnout."
"Please, consider it positively."
I glanced at the manager with a smile before interjecting, "Regarding the size of the venue in relation to the fanbase, it's my request."
I wanted to avoid blindly enlarging the scale, risking the diminished sense of delivering songs to each individual. Letting the surrounding enthusiasm accelerate on its own, rolling into areas I couldn't perceive, and collapsing at the last minute—I didn't want that again.
(I won't make the same mistake as with RUBIA.)
Consciously and unconsciously, I had been thinking about that for the past three years.
"But, I think it's about time to take a step forward."
"Thank you for considering it," I said, bowing my head. Iwahara next to me let out a small sigh of relief. He, who had been aware of everything, might have been the most anxious over the past three years. Otherwise, I couldn't find a reason for him to present the song of Impish Crow at that particular moment.
"So, as a trade-off, I have a suggestion. We've been relatively low-key so far, separate from the tour, throwing a bit of a curveball might be interesting."
"Oh, that sounds good!"
"Please allow me to assist with that as well."
【6:50 PM】
Once the meeting concluded, Iwahara promptly gestured for me to follow him to the manager's office.
"What's up, Iwahara-san? Nagging me?"
"Do you have any idea why?"
"Too many, I can't keep track."
"Ugh... let's just get this over with."
"... Alcohol?"
"Happy birthday."
"Seriously?"
"Just say 'thank you.'"
"Thanks. But, a birthday present from you that doesn't fit your character?"
"You're sharp. This is a joint gift with my housemate."
"What a hassle. A pack of cigarettes would've sufficed."
"If I gave you a present that would harm your throat and health, Haiji would scold me."
"Is it okay for me to be drinking all night?"
"Haiji is going to your place today, right?"
"A set of chaperones and a present. I see.”
【7:05 PM】
After convincing Iwahara to take a break for a smoke, I contacted Haiji and got into the car. Haiji and Iwahara's apartment was just a stone's throw away from the office. We'd be there in about five minutes.
(Everywhere is already in full Christmas mode.)
Navigating through the main street, I parked the car in a random alley and took a moment to catch my breath. I wasn't particularly fond of December. The city was lively and festive, and it felt like I was the only one standing still.
(So, that's why the shortcake.)
When I was a child, I lacked the ability to bridge the gap between the bustling city and the quiet home. When I realized that our home and others were somehow different, the most I could do was express small whims. Kurono was the only one who indulged those whims.
(But, it was okay back then.)
As I grew taller, my desires grew too, and I had more capabilities. Music filled the gaps and spaces.
(Still, enjoying it just within the confines of home wasn't enough for me.)
As my thoughts wandered off, the phone suddenly rang.
"Akaneeeee! Happy birthday, my little brother!!!"
The volume on the speaker seemed ten times louder than usual, and my brother, Mikado, continued.
"You must be happy, right? Of course! And why am I calling at this hour? Because, my dear brother, I'm in New York right now!"
"Oh, really?"
"Mikado, you have to go running soon or you’ll be late for the morning meeting."
"Oh, right, Kaede. Well then, I'm going for a run in Central Park! Kaede, I'm counting on you! That's all!"
As I was about to hang up, Kaede's voice came through the speaker.
"Wait, Akane."
"What?"
"Did you have cake this morning?"
"...Yeah, I did."
"I see. My breakfast was shortcake too. Well then, take care of Sora for me."
He said what he wanted to say and hung up. Immediately after, a message arrived—it was from our parents.
"A-chan, happy birthday. We'll send you something surprising again this year. From Mom and Dad."
"No, don't send anything."
I couldn't help but speak aloud.
(Man, my family, seriously, none of them have any sense of delicacy.)
Yet, their eagerness to make me happy came across 120%. It was quite annoying. But if I twisted about it, I'd just be a fool. I convinced myself of that, and it saw me through the sensitive teenage years. Or so it feels.
(Really.)
Throughout my life, there have been various thoughts. I've been hurt in trivial matters, but they never turned into significant pain or obstacles to moving forward because I've been incredibly fortunate. Now and then.
【7:10 PM】
"Akane-san."
The sound of tapping on the side window accompanied the call of my name. I hurriedly opened the door.
"Haiji, sorry. I was lost in thought and didn't notice."
"No, not at all. I just arrived!"
【7:30 PM】
I set off in the car with Haiji. By now, Kurono would probably be preparing some extravagant meal. While hurrying home, I received a call from Mashiro.
"Good morning, both of you."
"Huh, Mashiro-san, were you sleeping until now?"
"More importantly, where are you now?"
"I'll be home in about five minutes."
"Then, is it not snowing there?"
"Snow?"
"Oh, right!"
Haiji joyfully pointed to the sky. Snow in Tokyo at this time of year would likely stop in no time.
"I haven't seen snow in a while."
"This is such a rare sight for Tokyo in this season; it'll probably stop soon."
On my birthday this year, the events that unfolded, and the snowfall at this moment. I'm sure I'll never forget this different day.

[Translation] DIG-ROCK 1st LIVE -FLASH- backstage conversations - HOUND ROAR & RUBIA Leopard
Tumblr media
Shoma: It was so refreshing!! .....Oi megane? Shion: .....I feel sick Shoma: But you played like you were fine today! ... God,can’t be helped. Shoma: Sogo-san! I'm taking this Megane to the Aid room! Sogo: Got it! I'll clean up over here. Call me if anything happens. Shoma: Thanks! Shion: I'm sorry.... Toya: You're not going with them? Sogo: It will be alright, I have to take my drum apart too, and they getting along pretty well. Toya: I see .... Sogo: ? Sogo: What? You're in daze. Are you feel sick too? Toya: It's opposite Sogo: opposite? Toya: I could still perform. I want be on stage more. Sogo: Hee—It's rare that you're not tense after a stage. Toya: Tense... Sogo: Usually you're mumbling, 'I should have done that better', 'I should have done this'. Toya: I see..... Sogo: You're not going to say something like that today? Toya: It's not that. But reflection and regret can come later. That's what I feel now. Haiji: Umm....sorry to interrupt.. Toya: You are... Sogo: Aren't you Haiji-kun? Haiji: It's been a while Sogo-san. Sogo: Sorry, I'll hurry up and clear out. Just give me a minute. Haiji: Eh? Is just the two of you here? Toya: One member was sick and went to the first aid room. Kurono: That's seem tough. Let me help. Toya: Thankyou, but it's fine don't mind us. Kurono: As we all share the same stage, don't hold back. Mashiro: I mean, if Hauro doesn't clear out, we can't get in. Haiji: Mashiro-san! Sogo: Thanks, then, I will accept your kind offer. Mashiro: Forget about that. Just get your hands to work over there. Sogo: Ouch, Okay. Haiji: Cable over here, done! Kurono: It looks fine.  I think I can move the keyboard with this. Sogo: Oh, thank you. I'll take care of the rest. Hey, Toya. Haiji: Eh— I'll help. Toya: it's fine, your kindness is enough. Haiji: But— Toya: Now you need to concentrate on your turn. We need Rubire to be in the throne for a while longer. Mashiro: Hee— Toya: Otherwise, the impact when Hauro overtakes Rubire will be small. Mashiro: You heard that? Kurono: Well, if that's the case, then I'll stop helping you here. Haiji: I understand. . Sogo: ... I'm surprised. You're going to overtake Rubire? Seriously? Toya: You have problems with that? Sogo: No, but I don't think you'd come with something big. Toya: That's right. But, with the current Hauro I'm sure we can do it. I look forward to your performance. See you then.
Mashiro: .... what's with that confident face.. Kurono: Just get on with setting yourself up. You're late coming in the first place. Where were you and what were you doing! Mashiro: Ah .. Do you even bother to ask that?. Kurono: Ah. You went smoking again. Mashiro: I was smoking and watching for them to clear out. But they wouldn't move. Haiji: Mashiro-san, you're don't really like  Hauro member, right? Mashiro: Not really. But it's definitely the faces I don't want to see. Haiji: But I was really fired up by that exchange! Kurono: Me too. I won't give up my throne so easily. Mashiro: Well, we should make them regret they had to play against us.

[DIG-ROCK FANCLUB OFFICIAL] , RUBIA Leopard SS (Short Story) #1 TRANSLATION
A loud clattering sound of dishes colliding nearby brought Akane back to reality. As he rubbed his eyes, the messy state of the living room slowly came into focus—empty sukiyaki pot, dirty plates, scattered snack wrappers, and empty beer cans. And then...
 "....Haiji."
Calling out, Akane turned to see Haiji holding a stack of dishes, looking back at him.
"I'm sorry. Did I wake you up?"
"Yeah. What time is it now?"
"It's four in the morning."
"Seriously?"
 Checking the clock, he confirmed what Haiji said. It was indeed early morning, and a faint light was starting to appear outside the window.
 "Wow, damn..."
 "Is there some urgent work?"
"Not really. I'll probably get scolded by Iwahara-san for going wild like this."
"There was a missed call earlier. Someone probably wants you to wrap up and go home already."
"Yeah, I figured. But that call came in at two in the morning. I can't say anything to others either."
"You're still a workaholic."
"So, when I get back, I'll apologize directly. 'Sorry for enjoying myself so much and being late', or something like that."
 Haiji's face brightened as he murmured, "This might be the first time."
 (Nice expression.) Akane's lips naturally softened at the sight of Haiji's genuinely cheerful demeanor. (At first, I was just scaring him away.) He couldn't think of a way to ease the tension back then, and he even felt that things were fine as they were. Trying to be greedy ended up in failure, so he discarded everything that could be discarded and gathered only the things he truly desired. If sacrificing music was necessary to achieve that, then so be it. He didn't need anything else. (I'm an idiot.) Recalling that determination at the time, he couldn't help but feel a tinge of tragic emotion, causing him to smile. (Can't say anything about others. Even I have changed.) (Actually, getting drunk and falling asleep in front of people is probably a first.) It might be the first time he did something like this.
 "But still, Haiji, you're pretty good with alcohol."
"Just a little red in the face, but otherwise, Akane-san seem pretty much the same."
"But I couldn't drink this much alone. Thanks for keeping up with me."
"You're welcome."
"Come again, alright?"
"Sure. If it's such a fun request, anytime."
"...By the way, where's Kurono?"
"He's passed out in his room... Speaking of which, Mashiro-san took Kurono-san with him when they left, but they haven't come back."
 "Maybe they're both passed out in the room?"
"It's possible. Even though he was stumbling, he refused to let me take him home."
"That guy can be surprisingly caring."
 Kurono and Mashiro were still as direct as ever in their quarrels. But did the two of them realize that there was no one else with whom they could be so straightforward? (Speaking of which, that Mashiro guy is fine with this. Leaving his bass lying around here like this.) Akane lightly touched the bass case. (Kurono too. Collapsing in the living room like this.) He could easily imagine the excuses they would make once they woke up.
 "Haiji, you don't have to clean up the dishes."
"I'll take Akane-san word for it and just stack them here. The kitchen is Kurono-san's territory, so he might mind if someone else touches it."
"It's not like he'll say anything."
"Kurono-san is kind, you see…"
"Not that. Haiji, you're not just some stranger."
 Haiji blinked, looking surprised.
 "Um, Akane-san. Are you still drunk?"
"Not at all."
"Then, are you teasing me?"
"I thought Haiji might get embarrassed, but I'm serious."
 As Akane raised the corners of his mouth and smiled, Haiji, who was unfazed by the alcohol, blushed slightly and said, "Please save that for when you're more drunk," while pouting his lips.

Tsugumi: Well, Hibiki? Come here.
Hibiki: (sobbing)
Tsugumi: ...are you all right?
Hibiki: I can't, I don't know if I should be happy to hear Prisoner and GROW in a row yesterday and today, or cry that I couldn't hear this on BLAST.
Tsugumi: ... are you really all right?
Hibiki: ...Yes. I've been living for this day since the concert was decided and the voice of my oshi has extended my life. Thank you, Tsugumi. Both of you please don't mind me.  I want to finish the live as soon as possible and get in line up the product sales
Tsugumi: You're going to line up?!
Akane: Every word you say is so heavy.
Hibiki: Of course I'll line up. Of course I'll stand in line. I have to buy until the autographs one come out.

Akane: Pump it is the second single, isn't it? ......since we're here anyway, shall we make a public confession?

Tsugumi: Hibiki is coming out!
Akane: I thought he was frozen in the corner...
Tsugumi: Let's come over here too Hibiki!

DIG-ROCK ーREALー in AKABANE ReNY alpha LIVE REPORT DAY 1
Tumblr media
DAY 1 ~Afternoon stage~
RISE→Chained to you
(MC part)
Akane: RISE is a must for the first song, isn't it? Toki's guitar was so spirited when he came in. It's a song that I'm personally attached to. I love it so much.
Tsugumi: Chained to you is ... very cool (small voice)
Akane: Oh? I can't hear you (amused voice)
Tsugumi: It's so cool! Especially Mashiro-san's bass!
GROW → prisoner → No Limit → Ride the Wind → ROAR
(MC part)
(Hibiki sing and head back immediately)
Tsugumi: Hibiki!? Ah he's gone..
Akane: Ah.. I guess it's fine just let it alone.
Tsugumi: Prisoner then from GROW, it reminds me of BLAST. Thank you for everything at that time.
Akane: Likewise.
Tsugumi: No Limit also has a sense of speed and is suitable for live performances, and Kurono-san's guitar is more forward than usual, so it looks like a lot of fun.
Akane: Correct. Then Ride the Wind.
Tsugumi: The beat is different from usual, so it's very difficult to sing.
Akane: But it's good, isn't it?
Tsugumi: It's so cool, I love it so much!
Faith → Identity
~Afternoon stage end~
Tumblr media
DAY 1 ~night stage~
RISE→Chained to you
(MC part)
Akane: How was RISE and Chained to You?
Tsugumi: Before that, greetings! You keep forget introducing yourself!
Akane: starting from RISE, I'm getting excited.
Tsugumi: Why are you proud of RISE?
Akane: Because I like it
Tsugumi: ......! (happy but bit frustrated) I love Chained to you so much too! I'm so excited from the start!
Akane: So that's mean we are mutually in love?
Tsugumi: why is that so!?
Answer→ Pump it!→ Updraft→ Never end
Tsugumi: It's not fair!
Akane: Oh?
Tsugumi: Answer is too strong! It's not fair that Never end is so naughty too!
Akane: Even if you say so...
Tsugumi: ....cool.... What else can you play?
Akane: Guitar is not so bad. I can play the bass and drums, too.
Tsugumi: All instruments! It's not fair!
Akane: From my point of view, it's crazy that a guy who can't do anything can compose so much music.
Tsugumi: I'm sorry I couldn't do anything!
Akane: I'm giving you a huge compliment, idiot!
Tsugumi: You're an idiot if you call me an idiot, idiot! EH....Is that a compliment?
Akane: Updraft and Pump it, If you listen to it continuously the flavour will change.
Tsugumi: We got Samejima-san to join us from Updraft, didn't we?
Akane: It was unexpected that Hayato-san was brought in, but I'm looking forward to seeing him make drastic Inkro songs.
Tsugumi: ....? Dra... What?
Akane: Ah time's up.
Tsugumi: Aren't you cheating on everything!
Akane: the prompt is out. After us, there will be a special guys, so have fun. ...Have a good time
syndrome→MC
(MC part)
Hibiki: Hey guys... are you alive... starting with Answer, dying with Chained to you, being called to Never end... are you alive? I'm... dead.. I just can't believe that Tsugumi is sandwiched between the sounds of Rubire and didn't feel anything, and I've been told to be a MC, but I want to go to that side (the audience) too, so I can go. ...Oh, I am Hibiki, the vocalist of HOUND ROAR. Let's have fun! 
Ride the Wind→EXISTER
