"I am not of this world… And someday… I have to go back to the moon. If you want to get a hold of me, please bring the Jewel-Bearing Branch of Mount Horai."

Producer
|
You have this different vibe to you when you don't speak with your dialect, Kogane.
|
|
Kogane
|
W-What was that for~…!
|
|
Producer
|
…Oh, Haha. You're back.
|
|
Kogane
|
P-Producer! …You didn't think that it was me earlier~…?
|
|
Producer
|
No, that's not what I meant. The offer for this "The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter" Is all because of the genuine efforts you put in for that shoot. This might be a small theater gig, but a lead role is still a lead role. Let's give it our best here!
|
|
Kogane
|
Y-Yes! Alright… Time to practice once more. ...Sheesh, Producer! You shouldn't look at me like that!
|
|
Producer
|
Hahaha, But you do realize that there will be many more people looking at you during the actual performance, right?
|
|
Kogane
|
T-That's true……To be honest… I really can't emotionalize these words well…
|
|
Producer
|
…Is that so?
|
|
Kogane
|
Yes… If this script was in the Nagasaki dialect, I could easily get cracking on it… Ah. Producer, could you do this role? Please try saying this line!
|
|
Producer
|
Huh?
|
|
Kogane
|
This! The "I love you" one!
|
|
Producer
|
――Eh?
|
|
Kogane
|
Eh?
|
|
Producer
|
N-No, asking me something like that out of the blue is kinda…
|
|
Kogane
|
Even before, I just could get this line right. So… I'm not really confident about it…
|
|
Producer
|
I-Is that so…? But, I'm quite an amateur in this kind of things…
|
|
Kogane
|
It's alright, I just want to hear it being pronounced properly. …And go!
|
|
Producer
|
Umm… Okay… …"I-I love you"…
|
|
Kogane
|
Eh~? That was kinda inaudible… One more time, and go!
|
|
Producer
|
...Umm, isn't this a bit too hasty? Aah, aah… Okay, here goes… …"I love you"
|
|
Kogane
|
Ah? …U-Umm…
|
|
Producer
|
Haha… Did I just get the right feeling for it just now? *ahem* Aah, aah… "I love you" …Yeah! Alright, your turn now, Kogane.
|
|
Kogane
|
Umm… err…!
|
|
Producer
|
What's the matter? You do it too, Kogane, and go!
|
|
Kogane
|
I-I… love…
|
|
Producer
|
Hmm…? Say… Is something wrong?
|
|
Kogane
|
Y-Yes… umm… I absolutely adore you!
|
|
Producer
|
Huh?
|
|
Kogane
|
I absolutely adore you…! …When I try to say it, it comes out like this!
|
|
Producer
|
…Ahaha! The line is totally different.
|
|
Kogane
|
Uuu~…!
|
|
Producer
|
Relax, Kogane. Today is just a rehearsal. While there isn't much time to fix things, I'm sure that you'll be able to take care of the things you're worried about. It will be alright. I'll do everything I can to help you.
|
|
Kogane
|
Producer…
|
|
Kogane
|
…Okay…… "I love you"
|
|
Producer
|
……!
|
|
Kogane
|
Just kidding! I'll be going now!
|
|
Producer
|
Okay… Do your best, Kogane.
