[スタオケ] La Corda d'Oro Starlight Orchestra Main Story Chapter 3-6 Translation

*Starlight Orchestra Masterlist *Spoiler free: Translations will remain under cut *Main story tag will be #Main Starlight

Nono: Oh? Where are you heading to, Concertmistress?

Nono: I see. Even though you've now made up the numbers for the violin concerto, you still have to practice your solo part.

Nono: You can't let yourself bring the team down, so that's why you're gonna put in some special practice, right?

Nono: I think it'll be nice to practice in the Yamashita Park. It would definitely help improve your mood!

Nono: Good luck! I'll be cheering you on too~!

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦�� ━━━━━━━ ☆

I had the audio recording of the Brahms' Violin Concerto that we were going to play stored on my phone.

Even so, this is a difficult piece to play, so I'll have to practice till the joint performance concert takes place.

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

I'm sure Tsukishiro can play something like this with ease…

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

???: Excuse me, please.

⊳ Choice: Wha…?

youtube

Kei: *Huff*...

Kei: …Hm?

???: Did you see him?

???: Over here!

Kei: …!

Kei: —Quiet.

???: …Hurry, quick!

???: Where'd he go!?

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

Kei: Hmm… Are they gone yet? Good grief, what a persistent bunch.

Isn't the person in front of me Tsukishiro Kei…?

⊳ Choice: This must be a dream.

Kei: Pinch your cheeks any harder and they're going to come off.

⊳ Choice: What are you doing in a place like this?

Kei: It's not as if the whole of Yokohama is Seiso Academy's backyard. Which means that I should be free to go wherever I want.

⊳ Choice: …I've been a fan of yours since I was a kid!

Kei: Why, thank you.

Kei: Hmm? I feel like I've seen your face before. But where…?

Kei: Don't look away.

Kari: Turn over here. Yup, like that…

⊳ Choice: My heart's gonna explode

Kei: Hey, forget blushing, your face has gone as white as a sheet. Are you okay?

⊳ Choice: If I close my eyes here now…

Kei: —Hey, why are you closing your eyes? Now I can't get a good look at your face. Kei: Huh? A kiss? Who's going to kiss who now? I don't get your train of thought.

⊳ Choice: Too close!

Kei: Why did you suddenly jump away from me? Stop struggling.

Kei: Pfft- hahahaha! Sorry, my bad.

Kei: That panicked face of yours just tickled my funny bone.

Kei: Judging from your uniform, you're a student from Seiso Academy, aren't you? You're participating in this year's qualifying round, yes?

Kei: Let me think… the Starlight Orchestra, was it?

⊳ Choice: You know of it?

Kei: I have a general idea of it. They're a potential rival at least, in their own right.

⊳ Choice: You should remember it.

Kei: Wow, that's big coming from you. I hope you're not all bark but no bite.

Kei: You're that Orchestra's Concertmistress, huh… I see. This might work out in my favor.

Kei: Who's calling? Tatsumi? Word sure travels around fast.

Kei: What is it? Has word already reached you?

Kei: I didn't run away. I played along and as Regal Records asked and spent three hours on their interview and photoshoot session.

Kei: There's no reason for me to abide by them during the free time I have before the actual event, right?

Kei: Yeah. Help me pass the message on. I'll be back by six.

Kei: As for the time before then…Well, let's just say I found something interesting on my end.

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

Kei: You're worrying way too much. Have I ever caused you trouble? Alright then, I'll leave you to handle the rest as you see fit.

Kei: Alright, now I've secured some time of my own.

Kei: Why do you look so nervous? It's not like I'm going to ask unreasonable things of you.

Kei: I’d just like to see the Starlight Orchestra’s headquarters. Could you guide me around Seiso Academy?

☆ ━━━━━━━ ∘◦♬Main Starlight♬◦∘ ━━━━━━━ ☆

Number 20 :0?

(@everlastingrandom said:)

Omg I left out the other parts of the prompt XD, 20, 8, 5

20, 8, 5 - Neighbours au, going camping with friends, they meet for the first time, “you’re just too damn cute!”

Life is full of funny coincidences.

Like the time Lup and Lucretia wore the same dress to a party, or the time she and Taako bought each other the exact same knife set for Christmas, or the time both Magnus and Merle had dressed as Elvis for a costume party. Or – here's a really funny one – how she’s gone camping and her neighbour is here and he’s utterly gorgeous and she can’t stop thinking about him and he keeps looking at her and is he into her? Should she say something to him? Should she -

Hahahaha. That’s such a funny coincidence.

She scowls and kicks a rock as they hike up the mountain path. She’d said she’d go for a walk to get away from Barry, to get some fresh air and maybe dunk her head in a stream to force her brain to reset. But when he’d asked “mind if I tag along?” with that cute nervous grin she’d found herself grinning back and saying “no problem!”

She’s in the middle of mentally cussing out her past self when Barry stops, a little way ahead of her, and breathes a “wow.”

She turns to look, and, yeah, wow. The foliage to their left has suddenly parted, giving them a perfect view of the evening sun setting over the horizon, bathing their campsite and the forest beyond in a beautiful golden glow.

“It’s gorgeous, huh,” Barry says, taking a seat on the bench that’s been erected in the perfect spot to watch the sunset. “I - wow. You don’t get views like this in the city.”

As it turns out, she could’ve been getting views exactly like this in the city, she thinks, watching him and not the sunset. How selfish of her brother is it to be friends with the world’s most attractive man and not tell her until they go on a camping trip together?

She just hums in agreement instead, and his brow furrows as he turns to look at her. “I - tell me if I’m overstepping, Lup, but are you okay? You’ve been - I don’t know, a little weird, today.”

Ugh. He’s so kind and caring and she wishes he’d shut up and make out with her already. Fuck, is that too much to ask?

“Yeah, Bear, I’m okay,” she says, the nickname she’s invented for him after knowing him for four days slipping out. “Just - I don’t know, homesick?”

The excuse sounds feeble, she knows, since she’s the one who’d pushed Taako to come on this trip, and Barry knows that. She just hopes he accepts the obvious lie without comment.

He nods, slowly, looking at her with eyes full of concern, and she has to look away. “I can – I can drive you home, if you’d like,” he says, after a second. “You’d only miss the last day, and all we’ll be doing is packing up. I can take your tent down for you -”

She sighs, heavily. He’s so considerate and he goes out of his way to be respectful and the worst part is that even when this fucking camping holiday is over she’s gonna know he’s her neighbour now and she has to try and not think about knocking down his door and jumping his bones? How’s that fair, god?

“Or - or not that,” he says. “Sorry. You know, if there’s - if I can do anything – even if it’s just leaving you alone, I can do that -”

“Fuck, do you not know?” She demands. “You - you’re too damn cute! How am I supposed to function like this? You – you're doing this to me deliberately, right?”

That all comes out in a single breath, far more angrily than she’d intended it to, and he blinks at her as she pants for breath.

“Shit, I’m sorry,” she starts to say, before Barry surges forward and presses his lips to hers, and she shuts up pretty fast. He’s gentle, warm, soft, and everything she imagined he’d be. Her heart pounds in her chest and her mind goes blank as she melts in his arms. His hand caresses the back of her neck, pulling her gently in even closer, not that she needed the encouragement. Their surroundings, that beautiful sunset, the picturesque view over the forest, it all takes on a hazy, distant sheen, and she almost believes this is a dream, but when Barry finally pulls away it’s obvious that she could never dream something so perfect.

They both pant for breath, for a second, staring at each other. Lup’s mouth hangs open, slightly, and Barry’s eyes have glazed over. “Fuck,” she says, eventually. “We’ve been neighbours for, like, three years, and we could’ve been doing that this whole time?”

He snorts, but before he can reply she decides that she’s had plenty of time apart from him, actually, and she leans in again.

(idk if this made any sense but... okay)

(and my cousin calls her mom mama so it’s really okay hahah i even call my mom mama sometimes) (and where you got the number “16 sentences” beats me but i still cracked up) (is this me pretending i had tags? maybe) HAHAHAHA OK BYE ❤️❤️ why did this take me so long to send i have no clue, AND WHY AM I OVERTHINKING EVERYTHING I SAID SHAJSHSJ ANYWAY BYE btw i love us too... like iconic // lovely anon 💓

me reading this:

also the dedication you put into sending me stuff— like with the laptop and phone and ahsksk 🥺🥺🥺

i’ll update you when i’ve started uni btw, i’m getting more and more excited every single day haha but i still have 3 weeks until it starts and even then I’ll obviously have to get used to it and everything, but you’re making me even more excited about it sksjshsg

yeah i wanna go to england too dkshsh let’s be sad together over the fact the we can’t travel eksjsh😔😭 but hopefully the wait will make it even better in the end <33 also i talk to loads of relatives over the phone at least once a week so it’s not too bad for me! but i miss their house 😭lmao

and i knowww snshsh so many native english speakers just make so many mistakes— and obviously i get that some things are slang but some things are simply wrong ajsh, the thing is no one has ever told me that my english is bad (i know it’s not bad anyway, but i’m still insecure) or no one has ever pointed out any mistakes, but yeah it’s mostly just insecurity dkshsg but yes thanks for saying what you said (previously as well as in this ask)😌🥰

Okay now for latin— girlll i don’t blame u for choosing art over latin esp. when all of your friends are doing art as well!! I’d choose art over latin as well lol skshsg but in year 6 we had to choose between latin and french, and at the time i didn’t like french? which was dumb of me and now i wanna learn french ekdhs but i don’t regret choosing latin at all bc if i properly learn french one day then i’ll already know understand loads of stuff (or at least some stuff lol) just thanks to latin 😌😌 but still, art>>>latin skskshshgs

I wanna watch chaos walking too!!! But i don’t get when/where/how it’s out lmao, cinemas are still closed here so i’ll either have to wait or find it somewhere online... il*egally 🥰 i don’t have high expectations at all btw but i like daisy and tom and the dog🥺 so i think i’ll enjoy it

GIRL SHARK FILMS SHARK FOLMS SKSJSHSHS okay so there are a few classics i haven’t watched yet, and also a few new ones that i haven’t seen yet BUT I LOVE SHARK FILMS SO MUCH SKSHSGSGSKK the first like proper shark film i ever watched was the shallows (which i like but my brain is still too small to comprehend what happened at the end (i mean i get it but i just can’t imagine it— idek if you’ve seen the film but skshhs)) and after watching it three times it does get a bit boring (but now whenever i see pictures or videos of big waves i’m just waiting for a shark to show up like come ON SKSJSG

^^^that pic/scene really traumatised me sksjsh but i still like the film

I only watched jaws like a few months ago, and i get that it’s a classic and also that it’s old and they just didn’t have the best.. equipment or special effects or whatever but i mean... look at meg and then look at jaws.... no disrespect to jaws at ALL but the meg is so much cooler. (That one scene on the boat where the shark just JUMPS OUT OF THE WATER AND SKSJSHHSUSJHA i get such a shock every time it’s so good (and the dog aww aksjshssli 🥺🥺🥰 and the boy with the ice cream lmao he’s iconic)

47 metres down, wow, i liked that film too. (i’ve only watched the original/first one i think) i mean that is such a fucking nightmare scenario like ALSJDHSNEMSKDJSHSJSKWBALSODUEWBSLDKHDJSNSKSKSHSGEBWKAISGSHEKEKSKLDJDJDHDHSHAGGA (that’s the best way i can express my feelings about that scenario lmao)

oh and i’ve recently been watching more horror films but i don’t know if they’re for me... I like the thrill and whatever but i just end up being scared for my life when i have to go to the bathroom at night or when i’m trying to sleep bc suddenly my mind is flooded with all the scary shit from the films 💀💀💀

and music i mean... you know those people who just don’t listen to music? WHAT IS WRONG WITH THEM???? i honestly like all genres especially in the last year, i am IN LOVE with Nicki Minaj + Megan andddd Stormzy and i like Harry Styles but i prefer his first solo album (and obviously one direction has bangers i have a throwback 1D session at least once a month), I also love MGK especially his new stuff and otherwise i mostly listen to german artists lmao. So who do you like?💖 (WHY DO I FEEL LIKE YOURE GONNA SAY SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT SKAHAGUS IF YOU LISTEN TO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT MUSIC DONT JUDGE ME AJSHDJS) (i know you’re not gonna judge me but)

++ @ the thing you said about writing, don’t worry, i don’t feel pressured at all!!! (not by you and not by anybody else.. except myself sometimes lol) and i’m just very happy that you liked my fics 🥰🥰🥰 and if i start telling people that i’m writing a fic then sometimes it puts a bit of (healthy) pressure on me. like yes sometimes it really is writer’s block, but sometimes i really am just lazy ddkshhd so now that i’ve told you i’m writing a fic i might get my ass up quicker than i would if i hadn’t told anyone 😌😌😌

#ok i wrote some if this on the tube/on the bus/at the dentist/in bed so if this seems like it’s all over the place #that’s bc i was literally all over the place skshg #*of #also i love how you used tags skajahsg #lovely anon #<3 #sorry if some of the sentences didn‘t make sense or were too fucking long i wrote half of this half asleep #and i know i dont have to apologise but still like no one should have to read all my page long sentences that arent even proper sentencesskk

Hi honey bunches!

I really appreciate that! I’ve always kind of thought no kids/no marriage, and then I went through an identity crisis and finally came to terms with my sexuality in my early 20s and then I was like “yeah definitely no” haha. So many people are like “you’ll definitely change your mind” and I find it rather obnoxious. And while I’m pretty sure I don’t want biological children, I’ve been thinking a lot lately about becoming a foster parent, and would love to get to a place in my life where I could do that.

Feel free to talk about the complicated family situation if you want! (Or not, totally no pressure, but I definitely understand having a complicated family.) my parents also did a courthouse wedding and I honestly love their wedding photos, they’re so cute! Do you have any pictures of your dress that you can/want to share?

Gosh that sounds awful! I’m glad you were okay though. Out of my sibling/cousins (there’s 5 of us and all pretty close!) I’m actually the only one who *hasn’t* been in a major wreck. I still vividly remember getting a phone call from my sister after she rolled her pickup (she was thankfully okay, somehow walked away without a scratch even though the car was totaled, and this happened like one week after she’d gotten her drivers license.) but on to happier things!

I love that though, I think it’s so important to actually *like* your partner haha. What kind of video games do you like to play? And what’s your go to movie for movie night? And that’s literally the sweetest thing that you do his nails and makeup 🥺 how are things with the pandemic in your area?

Panic! puts on a great show, I saw them in Seattle during their death of a bachelor tour in 2017 and it was so much fun. I hope you get the chance to go! Who else is on your concert bucket list?

Omggg okay I will have to add Rijeka to my list of stops 👀 if everything goes according to plan, I want to do a road trip down the Croatian coast starting in Zagreb and ending up in Dubrovnik. My birthday is mid august, so it would be end of august to be a birthday trip! I love Munich, it’s only a couple hours from me by train so I’ve been there several times since I moved here! Because of travel restrictions, I haven’t been able to visit some of the places like Dachau yet, but I really want to. That history is heavy but so so important.

I adore the PNW, and I was originally planning on moving to Oregon for grad school before I ended up in Europe haha. I have a lot of good friends in that area and I can’t wait to be able to visit them in again! Where in Canada would you like to end up? The polar express thing sounds soso cool, honestly might book a seat for myself hahaha.

I think a lot of writing poetry is just accepting that a lot of it is going to be bad and then going from there haha. Like one of my professors told me, it’s always easier to work with something than it is with nothing so I have years and pages worth of bad poems and then some that I’ve turned into really good ones. Ohhh those all sound really interesting! I especially like the idea of a paranormal mystery. Do you have a particular tag that you post your writing under?

That sounds like an excellent weekend! What kind of project? And do you have your own pool or do you go somewhere? What a crazy coincidence for us to be paired together!! I actually didn’t start marching until college, my high school wasn’t big enough to have a marching band, just a pep band, and then I got involved with the music program for fun when I started college and ended up marching my sophomore through senior years. It was a lot of fun, but also a lot of hard work!! I can definitely understand how that could cause burn out. Mono sounds horrendous in the best case scenario, let alone what you were dealing with. Oh the EMT thing sounds like a cool program though!

Hahahaha yeah my sister is an amazing singer but it just missed me. I do perform well in the shower, when I’m out hiking in the woods, or alone in the car. Well I think you’d do well even without knowing everything single instrument ahdjshs i believe in you! ✨

Hope your week is off to a great start! 💖 Drew

Let's get the family stuff out of the way. Chase and I met in September of 2013, got engaged in January of 2014, and then married February of 2014. His brother was not pleased with that. There was a massive fight and its the only time I've seen Chase really truly angry. They were living together at the time and when we told him we decided to get engaged and that I was essentially moving in he flipped out. He was also drunk that night. We were excited, our parents were excited for us. We hadn't planned on getting married until May of 2015 but that didn't matter. He said some pretty horrendous things to Chase and then to my face. So Chase kind of snapped. After that, Chase wasn't sure he wanted to tell his family about the ceremony. He didn't want to rock the boat any more than he already did. My BIL moved out quickly after that fight. Chase and I always planned on having a ceremony with everyone later. That never worked out. Its something we regret, not inviting his parents. His Dad passed in 2016 after I found out I was pregnant. So he'll never get to have that. Even though we all moved past that, in that last year things have gotten tense between them again. I try not to get involved. My BIL eventually apologized and we all got really close especially when my FIL got sick. Even though we've both forgiven him, I don't know if Chase will ever really forget the hurt that situation caused me and him. It didn't stop us though. We knew our minds. We're both Taurus signs. So there really was no stopping us.

We didn't mean to get married on Valentines day. I had just been fired from Express for the stupidest reason, partly because of my relationship. We just decided on a Monday to get married that following Friday. When we went to get the license, that's when we realized it was going to be Valentines Day. We laughed pretty hard about it. We still do. I joke that because I always had such a rough time on Valentines Day, the universe made up for it.

Even though we jumped head first into commitment, we waited on expanding our family. And it wasn't an easy journey for us. Now, its a completely unrealistic option for me to carry another pregnancy. So, if we ever change our minds about having another kid, we'll adopt. I grew up with a messy extended family and so my tolerance for the behavior I've seen of late is non existent. I don't need that negativity. I don't have enough spoons! So, we keep our head down and mow our own lawn, so to speak.

I will make a post of pictures under my tag themodren . All of my personal posts are under that tag because I reblog a lot. However, the story excerpt is also under the tag brownandgreenandgold because it corrresponds to a poem I wrote. I'll put that one up for you too. Some of my other tags are: renreacts , folklorethemusical , and relativelyricalanalysis . I've started these tags hoping to follow up on them with more content but I haven't yet. You can find them all under themodren though. I'm trying to talk myself into sharing more.

Chase was really into WOW. I prefer games that are RPG in nature. I've played Castle Crashers, Baulder's gate, Torchlight, and currently Portal. I like Pokemon. Chase really grew up around video games. I didn't. He's so good at them. He's great at figuring out how things work whereas I'm the player that spins in circles.

I'd like to move to Vancouver or anywhere around that area. It looks so pretty.

The EMT program was amazing and I had a real knack for it. I was originally going to go pre-med. I wanted to be a Doctor. But I was thrown some curve balls and ended up in a Fashion Design program that no longer exists. Didn't finish that one either because I got pregnant and my postpartum period is where my autoimmune disease really jumped out. If I thought I could handle it, I'd go back and finish the nursing program I was going to go through, too. Or ideally I'd just go do pre-med again. Unfortunately I don't think that's in the cards. I'm still struggling to get my body under control and stress has a tendency to deplete my spoons quickly. The pandemic really hit me hard because I wanted to help but couldn't.

I try to focus on the good in my life. I try to remember to honor my limitations. I tell my husband that I feel like a ten cylinder engine that's being forced to only use four. It can be frustrating. So I laugh at myself and try to focus on other things. Like the recent succulent collection I've started. I might have a problem. We have a pool in our backyard. It was out of order until recently. I'm enjoying it a lot since that last few years I haven't been able to. Despite my struggles, my life is incredibly blessed. I always feel weird talking about the pain and disappointments of my life because I feel ungrateful.

The pandemic feels stale here. I'm sure the numbers are going down because there are so many people being vaccinated now, but unfortunately there is still too large a number of vaccine resistant or hesitant people. That frustrates me. Both my husband and I are vaccinated now, but we still wear our masks. We also avoid interacting with others outside our circle because our daughter hasn't been vaccinated yet. Hopefully come September that will change. Our state lifted mask mandates too soon, I think. We're a mostly republican state. I wish that didn't matter but it does. People are starting to act like the virus isn't still an issue even though it definitely is. Its been especially rough on my kid. She's been in virtual preschool for a year. She goes back in person in August, which I'm very nervous about. She has an IEP for speech therapy, so she needs to go, otherwise I'd find another solution. She doesn't get to go out much either. Its been tough on her. Her safety is of utmost importance though. I've heard too many horror stories of mom's acting like this virus isn't just as potentially life altering for children as it is for adults. At the beginning, parents were even hosting "covid parties" so all their kids would catch the virus. Horrified would be an understatement in describing my reaction to those articles.

The project is a memorial for my grandma. She passed recently. Its okay. She was old and we were expecting it.

Chase and I will watch things that we've wanted to watch for awhile. I haven't seen all the Marvel movies yet and there are a slew of older movies he's seen that he wants me to see. So, we typically pick something we haven't seen.

Lorde announced music today! So once she starts touring, I'd like to see her. Honestly, I'd like to see Twenty One Pilots. Halsey is another. I like Halsey. My best friend likes Marianas Trench, so it'd be fun to see them with her. If N'Sync ever toured again, I'd go see it. I would have loved to see Prince in concert. There's just so many different musicians I like that I'd love to see.

Are things getting any better where you're at, Drew? I hope your week goes well!
