@odorekijin
Track 1–Kumamoto Airport
Oshiro: “Ahhh~ Good ol’ Kumamoto, you ain’t changed one bit!”
Tomoe: “You’ve been gone for a few months at best, not a century, gee... Now eyes on the road before you trip over your feet.”
Oshiro: “Yes, sir~”
Tomoe: “Ugh it’s always the same story with you, Gorilla…”
Oshiro: “What did I do now? Dun’ gimme the eye… Oh by the way, thanks again fo’ comin’ all the way to Kumamoto with me!”
Tomoe: “...Because I had a choice? Care to remind the audience who forced me to come?”
Oshiro: “Hm~? Dunno whatcha talkin’ about.”
Tomoe: “Did you even think about me? What if I wanted to spend my spring break in peace? But no, someone had to come to me sniffling, and crying, and begging me because he didn't want to travel back home alone.”
Oshiro: “(Gulps)”
Tomoe: “It’s all on you, Gorilla.”
Track 1–Sakaki’s Household, Entrance
Tomoe: “Thank you for having me over. My name is Miyazono Tomoe. I’m that Gorilla’s— hrm, I mean, Oshiro-kun’s classmate.”
Amane: “Oh em gee, pinch me! I’m totally dreamin’!! So you’re the guy! That one drop-dead alluring vocalist everyone keeps talking ‘bout!?”
Tomoe: “H-Huh…? Pardon?”
Amane: “Thanks fo’ taking care of my Oshiro all this time by the way.” “Woah... That’s gotta be sorcery or somethin’, you look even more like a missy from up close! You’re super cute too, gosh... I can’t letcha leave without snappin’ a picture together! Whatcha say? Down for it?”
Tomoe: “... ...”
Oshiro: “Uh, sis... I think yer too close…”
Amane: “Oopsie, didn’t mean to be all up in yer business, Tomoe-chan. A’right boys, make yerself at home~”
Oshiro: “To, Tomoe, sorry fo’ all’at… Y-You alright…?”
Tomoe: “...Please tell me I am the one dreaming and she didn’t call me “Tomoe-chan” just now.”
Oshiro: “Well... She kinda just did…”
Tomoe: “(Tomoe clicks his tongue)”
Oshiro: “Waiwaiwait, it’s not my fault, okay!? I toldja she’s a lot when you dun’ really know her…”
Tomoe: “A lot? She’s oppressive and she sounds stubborn as a mule…”
Oshiro: “A-Anyway, come on in! We’ll talk more inside.”
Track 2–Sakaki’s Household, Living room
Shouri: “Oh, right, I guess we forgot to bring that up: since we hold ya in high regards, Tomoe-san, my sis an’ I created a fanclub in yer honour some time ago!”
Amane: “We named it ‘The Lovely Tomoe-chan Club.’ Whatcha think? Awesome, right?”
Tomoe: “No!? It’s the lamest thing I’ve ever heard! Dissolve this abomination immediately.”
Amane: “But Tomoe-chaaan, why thouuugh~?”
Tomoe: “Stop calling me ‘Tomoe-chan’ too, please. I don’t like it. It didn’t sit right with me earlier, and honestly I’m fed up with being babied for my looks…”
Amane: “I refuse. A sweetiepie has to get cute nicknames!”
Tomoe: “(Tomoe clicks his tongue) As I said—!”
Shouri: “Didja hear that!? He jus’ clicked his tongue! He’s the prime example of an unpredictable tsundere, I can’t believe that I’m witnessin’ it first-hand…! Now, if we could juuust get a glimpse at his sweet, emotionally challenged pout, I’d say we won the lottery…”
Amane: “I’ll get the camera, but we cain’t let this opportunity slip under our nose. Tomoe-chan is bein’ so good to us… The mad different mannerisms he’s showing ‘s gonna keep his fans hooked fo’ life, I’m sure!”
Tomoe: “Would you two drop the claptrap already!?”
Oshiro: “A, Alright, no need to get yer feathers ruffled er’body! Dinner ‘s gettin’ cold so let’s put that chat to rest fo’ now, yeah?”
Track 2–Sakaki’s Household, Oshiro’s Bedroom
Tomoe: “So what? Is that some kinda trauma you have?”
Oshiro: “...!”
Tomoe: “... …Is it...?”
Oshiro: “I guess it was a traumatic experience, huh…”
Tomoe: “...What’s wrong? I’m listening.”
Oshiro: “Ngh, gah! No! I gotta get outta my head!”
Tomoe: “Huh!?”
Oshiro: “I ain’t in the best headspace right now, and… I feel like I’d blurt out everything if I stay all up in my head, and...!”
Tomoe: “Okay…?”
Oshiro: “ I can’t keep bein’ like this… I’m never gonna become a proper composer at this rate! I’m a failure, I ain’t fit to be yer buddy anymore!!”
Tomoe: “Wai– Hold on, calm down first! What are you even saying!?”
Oshiro: “I know! There’s nothin’ like a hardcore workout in times like these! Y’can’t give up yet, Sakaki Oshiro! Build yer muscle, for workin’ out is mother of fortitude!! You will do a hundred push-ups, and you’re not stopping until yer done! Let’s go!!” “1! 2! 3! 4! 5! 6…”
Tomoe: “Well, that escalated quickly... Though I don’t really understand what just happened…”
Oshiro: “7! 8! 9! 10! Only 90 more left!”
Tomoe: “...Heh, you’re surprisingly more complex and high-maintenance than you probably realise.”
Oshiro: “Sorry, wasn’t listenin’, didja say sum’n?!”
Tomoe: “Not a single word.”
Track 3–Sakaki’s Household, Living room
Oshiro: “…What’s up? Somethin’ stuck on ma face?”
Amane: “…No, not at all. It’s just…”
Oshiro: “?”
Amane: “I was just thinkin’ to myself… You haven’t changed one bit, Oshiro.”
Oshiro: “Have I?”
Amane: “An’ just so you know… If you’re still thinking ‘bout what happened back then, you dun’ have to worry about it. Everything ‘s a’right.”
Oshiro: “...! I wasn’t, I mean, that’s not…”
Amane: “I’m happy with the life I have now, I promise.”
Oshiro: “... …”
Amane: “You don’t look convinced.”
Oshiro: “I didn’t mean to... Sorry, I do believe you.”
Amane: “You’re fine, I know y’didn’t mean it badly. Anyway, you boys plannin’ on going to the zoo? I’ve heard Shouri wanted to hang out with Tomoe-chan some more.”
Oshiro: “...O-Oh, uh, yeah. Tomoe has a thin’ for animals, so... I hope he likes it there.”
Amane: “Shouri an’ him seem to get along real’ well too.”
Oshiro: “They do... Ah, looks like it’s time. I’ll wake them up.”
Amane: “Oh, sure, go ahead!”
(Oshiro makes his way to the bedrooms)
Oshiro: “...Dun’ worry about it,” hah… I wish I could…”
Oshiro: “Tomoe?”
Tomoe: “Yes?”
Oshiro: “Thank you for comin’ all the way to Kumamoto. It means a lot to me.”
Tomoe: “Of course. I’m your buddy no matter what, remember?”
