[Scene - Department Store]


Arashi: He~llo…? Why are you two still lingering outside the entrance, having a private little chat?

Mika: Nnah~. Sorry, Naru-chan...Oshi-san can’t really go on until he finishes sortin’ himself out to what he thinks ‘s an acceptable level.

Though once he starts movin’, he isn’t gonna stop no matter what anyone says.

Shu: Do not talk as if you know me. But well, I will not correct you.

I am merely...a little afraid, of the shock that I may receive when confronted with truths about Mademoiselle that I had never wanted to know.

Arashi: Alright, well, let’s head in. The exhibition doesn’t seem to be open for long, so…

If we don’t take a look soon, it might close on us, you know?

Mika: Un….hey, wait? Anzu-chan, you’re dressed pretty cute, aren’t ‘cha? Jus’ like a doll♪

...wait, I ended up praisin’ you again! You’re my enemy, my enemy!

Natsume: AhaHA. It’s not a very big veNUE, so while you were busy talKING, we had already taken three laps around the exhibit and finishing shopping at the surrounding STORES.

Since as long as you have your tickET, you can re-enter as many times as you WANT.

Arashi: Mhm♪ Anzu-chan wasn’t dressed in a ladylike way at all, so Natsume-chan and I helped pick out a nice outfit for her.

Natsume: IncidentaLLY. I also took the opportunity to ask Kaminari-san on his opinions about cosTUMES and such, since he knows a lot about fashion and STYLE.

While you two were at a standSTILL, we certainly spent our time quite wiseLY.

Koneko-chan will be helping with our costume production as WELL, so it seems I am finally coming close to solving the issue I had beFORE.

Heheh, I suppose it’s good to drop in on things, someTIMES♪

But if I MAY, I do want Shu nii-san to quickly recover and be able to help make outfits and the like aGAIN...

So it would be nice if you could take a look at all these beautiful DOLLS, and restore your enerGY.

Shu: ……

Natsume: Nii-san? What’s WRONG? I’ll feel lonely if you don’t at least give me a reSPONSE, you know~?

Shu: NON! What in the world is this?! Call forth the persons responsible at once!

Unfathomable! To leave such fragile and delicate antique dolls right underneath the air conditioning!

And they are placed much too close to the path of the employees- what if someone knocks into one and breaks them!?

Aah, even more, the clothes they are wearing are completely incongruent with their own time period!

To just haphazardly dress these bare dolls in clothing with no sense whatsoever, I question their very character!

Who is the one responsible for such inhumane treatment towards these lovely dolls!?

Aah, this is exactly why--! It is absolutely detestable, to see an exhibition run by vulgar people with no respect for the arts!

Natsume: AhaHA. Nii-san, you seem extremely displeased with this exhibiTION.

Shu: That is beside the point! Aah, I cannot fathom how this was even allowed! Wait just a moment, I am contacting my household to secure funds immediately!

I will be taking in every single doll from this exhibition- the sooner, the better...!

Hello? Ahh, Nii-sama, can you forward me funds immediately? I want to buy some dolls...!

What? “Control myself with my hobbies?” You have it wrong- this is my raison d’etre!

Mika: Aaah Oshi-san, you’ll drop Mado-nee swingin’ your arms around like that!

Shu: Ahh, hold Mademoiselle for a moment…...Kagehira! I am going to convince this obstinate brother of mine!

Mika: Ah, okay…. c’mere, Mado-nee♪

There we go. Fufu, there’s a whole bunch o’ dolls here that look jus’ like you, Mado-nee...I wonder if they’re all your sisters?

They all have some description, but none of ‘em are in-depth. All these dolls, with unknown creators…

They look worn out, too- they must not’ve been well taken care of.

In contrast, I can tell Oshi-san really has taken great care o’ you, Mado-nee...your skin and clothin’ 's always real beautiful ♪

Shu: Non! How irritating! My family is refusing the investment of a single additional cent into my hobbies!

Aaaah, even in this age, an artist’s greatest enemy is their own unsympathetic family!

Kagehira! Is there work in line for 『Valkyrie』?

If not, we will be filling our schedules to the brim- we have the fortune of having the missy here, so let us ask her to send work our way!

Mika: Eh, eh? But Oshi-san, I thought you’ve come t’ hate standin’ on stage now?

That’s why we don’t have much planned- didn’t we want t’ build up funds first...?

Shu: No! You are lagging behind! We shall rescue these dolls with the funds we will accumulate on stage!

Ahh, I must speak with the management, and request for these dolls to be put on reservation!

But I must first request they be more properly stored- I will have busy times ahead…...Kagehira!

Aah, it’s coming to me! We shall sing of the sorrow of these dolls, forced to be mere spectacles, and their cruel treatment in the hands of the unsympathetic masses!

And, in accordance with our current feelings- I have decided on the contents of 『Valkyrie』’s next stage!

We shall acquire the ‘worth’ known as money that the ignorant masses worship so much, and rescue Mademoiselle’s nameless sisters!

It is killing two birds with one stone! This was definitely not the time to have been shutting myself inside!

Mika: N-nnah…? This guy sure does get fired up fast, huh?

But, when Oshi-san gets like this, he’s undefeatable- the strongest there is!

No matter what he says, I’ll follow ‘im for life~......right, Mado-nee? ♪

(1)Mademoiselle: 『Yes. He may be a troublesome boy, but...Mika-chan, Anzu-chan, and the others, too: please continue to stay by him.』

『We, who were thought to be worthless by the world, and were treated without care...』

『Were loved, cared for, and granted happiness in life by Shu-kun.』

『So, please care for him from now on, too- for our adorable saviour.』

『Take him with you as you run through the dazzling, brilliant world- as you experience ‘youth’.』

『And, what lies beyond that……. A long, long time ago, I was granted a light by Shu-kun.』

『...there are places to belong, places to expand your paradise- places where we can all show love, respect, and laugh alongside each other.』

『But, just like me, Shu-kun is very fragile...so please, protect him. I cannot move my own fingertips, so please move in my stead.』

『Our friend- no, our family...please, treasure him from here on after...♪』

Notes:

(1) Mika is holding Mademoiselle at this point, so, instead of her dialogue being spoken under Shu’s name, she receives her own named dialogue box. Mika has a voice clip of him speaking in her voice, so it’s probably safe to assume this represents Mika speaking through her- Mademoiselle most likely receives her own dialogue box here rather than being under Mika’s name, because Mika regards Mademoiselle as a completely separate entity.
