[bunniefuu]

Hiiragi: Excuse me.

Tsubaki: Hm? Oh.

Hiiragi: Is Mafuyu here?

Tsubaki: He's off today.

Hiiragi: I see...

Hiiragi: When's his next shift?

Tsubaki: Can't you ask him yourself?

Hiiragi: Yeah, well...

Hiiragi: He sorta hates me right now.

Mafuyu: Thank you very much...

Aki: Sure.

Aki: Make sure you send me the lyrics when they're done.

Mafuyu: I will.

Aki: Just one more week, huh?

Op: Everything that you left behind

Op: Became my everything

Op: The wound pierced into my heart

Op: Still remains as the days continue to go by

Op: If I were to forcibly take it out, the pain would never end

Op: So I'll just leave it there

Op: Rainy, sunny, and cloudy days

Op: Spring, summer, fall, and winter

Op: days a year

Op: You're there in all of them

Op: Reach in deep

Op: And while you're at it, take away my memories, too

Op: The voices that can't be heard

Op: Are strangling me again

Op: Dig deep

Op: And look at the pain within me

Op: Everything that you left behind

Op: Became my everything

Op: Everything that you left behind

Op: Became my life

Yayoi: Got your umbrella?

Ritsu: Yeah.

Yayoi: What about your guitar?

Ritsu: We're not practicing.

Yayoi: Huh?

Haru: But if you go on like this, you're gonna be swallowed up by Mafuyu's sound.

Sign: Study Hall

Sign: Basketball

Ita: I wanna... play basketball...

Ueki: Go play, then.

Ita: I don't wanna play by myself!

Ita: Everyone just keeps talking about our stupid finals.

Ueki: How about you, Uenoyama? Bet you're busy with concert prep.

Ritsu: Uh, what?

Ita: Who cares about my finals?! I'll still be there for your gig!

Ritsu: Sure...

Ueki: If we get below a in world history, we get extra homework.

Ita: Ugh, seriously?

Ritsu: Studying for your finals?

Mafu: Not really.

Mafu: I'm pretty sure I'll fail modern Japanese.

Ritsu: Yeah, I feel you.

Ritsu: Well, see ya.

Mafu: Okay. Bye-bye.

Haru: Take-chan, are you on your way home from practice?

Take: Nah, I'm heading to practice now.

Haru: Yikes, that sounds rough.

Take: We're all working adults, so our schedules never match up during the week...

Take: The next time we can practice together is the rehearsal on the day of the show.

Take: It's scary as hell!

Haru: Tell me about it...

Take: Well, anyway... We're sounding pretty good, so look forward to the show.

Haru: Sure.

Haru: Oh, it's raining.

Take: sh*t! I don't have an umbrella.

Haru: If disposable is okay, I've got one.

Take: My hero!

Radio: Next is the national weather.

Radio: The rain will continue throughout the whole Kanto region

Radio: due to incoming low atmospheric pressure,

Radio: and will increase in strength this afternoon...

Ugetsu: Gimme a bite.

Ugetsu: I wish this humidity would just die.

Aki: It's what you get for living in the basement.

Ugetsu: Shut it.

Aki: Mind if I play some drums in the mornings?

Ugetsu: Huh? Why?

Ugetsu: Oh...

Ugetsu: Got a show coming up?

Ugetsu: What, so you're actually serious about it now?

Ugetsu: What?

Aki: You wanna come?

Ugetsu: Are you at a level you don't mind showing me?

Ugetsu: Oh, I see. You suck so bad, you couldn't even answer me.

Ugetsu: I won't be going, then.

Aki: Hey!

Aki: Ugetsu. You should come.

Ugetsu: There's no point in seeing a show if the performers aren't even trying.

Aki: I'm trying! Hell, that's all I really have going for me right now!

Ugetsu: Hey, finally, some enthusiasm.

Aki: Thanks, jerk.

Ugetsu: Play some violin with me later, then.

Aki: Play with your new viola-playing boyfriend.

Ugetsu: Nah. I just like his face.

Aki: Is that so?

Ugetsu: It is.

Aki: Do you want to express it?

Aki: Or do you want to run away from ever having to verbalize it?

Sign: Hiiragi Kashima Hey

Sign: Hiiragi Kashima You awake?

Sign: Hiiragi Kashima Look out your window

Sign: Hiiragi Kashima Hey

Sign: Hiiragi Kashima You awake?

Mafu: Hello?

Hiiragi: Mafuyu. Hey.

Hiiragi: Come hang out with me for a bit.

Hiiragi: Hiiragi Kashima won't meddle.

Hiiragi: Because is there really any point?

Mafu: Why now? Why bother with me?

Mafu: You've just been standing on the sidelines this whole time.

Hiiragi: You're right. I didn't do anything.

Hiiragi: Even when you and Yuki started going out.

Hiiragi: I knew everything, but I didn't say a word.

Hiiragi: And now, I regret that.

Hiiragi: Hey, I get how you feel, bu—

Mafu: You have no idea how I feel!

Hiiragi: You're right. I don't.

Hiiragi: And I regret that right now, too.

Hiiragi: Hiiragi Kashima wants to be forgiven.

Hiiragi: It doesn't matter by who... He just wants to be forgiven.

Hiiragi: Mafuyu Sato, Yuki Yoshida, and I were childhood friends.

Hiiragi: Later, Shizusumi moved in nearby and joined us.

Sign: Yuki Yoshida

Sign: Hiiragi Kashima

Hiiragi: For as long as I could remember, everything happened within that little world of ours.

Hiiragi: Especially with Mafuyu and Yuki,

Hiiragi: who were latchkey kids with single moms.

Hiiragi: They were both missing something from the start.

Hiiragi: It was like they each had what the other was lacking,

Hiiragi: so Yuki needed Mafuyu, and Mafuyu needed Yuki.

Hiiragi: They just gave the impression that they were made for each other.

Hiiragi: Yuki was flashy, domineering, and moody.

Sign: Math

Hiiragi: Mafuyu was docile, introverted, and quiet.

Hiiragi: While everyone around them wondered how they ever got along,

Hiiragi: like how opposite poles on magnets are attracted to one another,

Hiiragi: it seemed as though their own little world was complete with their own set of rules.

Hiiragi: When we started high school, we went to separate schools,

Hiiragi: and Yuki, Shizusumi, and I started playing music together...

Hiiragi: until a small fracture appeared.

Hiiragi: Yuki worked part-time jobs so he could play in the band,

Hiiragi: and spent the rest of his time in the studio.

Hiiragi: Mafuyu and Yuki had a stupid little fight.

Hiiragi: It was a pointless argument,

Hiiragi: the kind of silly scuffle everyone's had before.

Hiiragi: Two days later, Yuki, who couldn't even drink, downed a huge amount of booze.

Hiiragi: And Mafuyu found him.

Hiiragi: I knew about everything.

Hiiragi: I knew everything, and yet, I...

Mafu: We're doing a show on Sunday.

Hiiragi: You're okay with me being there?

Mafu: Yeah.

Hiiragi: Can Shizu come, too?

Mafu: Invite Shizu-chan, too.

Mafu: I took out my frustration on you.

Hiiragi: Yeah.

Mafu: Earlier, I said you had no idea how I felt...

Mafu: But the truth is... I'm the one who has no idea how I feel.

Mafu: I didn't want to face how I really felt, so I've been avoiding it.

Mafu: Ow!

Hiiragi: You dummy.

Hiiragi: Call me sometime, you dumbass.

Mafu: 'Kay.

Mafu: Thanks...

Hiiragi: Hiiragi Kashima wants to be forgiven.

Hiiragi: It doesn't matter by who... He just wants to be forgiven.

Hiiragi: But more than anyone else, he wants Mafuyu to forgive him.

Yuki: Whoosh!

Yuki: Boom!

Yuki: Hey. What're you doing?

Yuki: Can't you talk?

Yuki: Whoosh!

Mafu: When I talk...

Mafu: my dad hits me.

Yuki: Y'know,

Yuki: a real dad doesn't do that.

Haru: Hey.

Aki: Where's Mafuyu?

Haru: Not here yet.

Aki: Well, let's see how things go until rehearsal.

Ritsu: Huh?

Haru: Yeah.

Haru: Who knows? He might blow us all away at the very last minute.

Aki: If Mafuyu plans on singing at all, we should hold out.

Haru: We'll be fine as long as it all works out when we're on stage.

Ritsu: Yeah!

Mafu: Hello.

Haru: We're "the seasons." Thanks for having us today.

PA: Okay, let's start with the drums.

Ritsu: Rehearsal started...

Ritsu: and Mafuyu still didn't sing.

Take: All right, let's get the introductions out of the way.

Take: Let's start in the order of appearance.

Take: So, we're "chā shāo boys." I'm the bassist, Yatake.

Take: The road may have been a little rough, but hey, all's well that ends well.

Guy: Nothing's over yet, man!

Take: I'm just hoping we have a blast out there. Pleasure working with you guys today.

Guys: Likewise!

Take: Second up is "the seasons."

Haru: Thanks for having us.

Ritsu: Thanks.

Aki: Pleasure.

Mafu: Thank you.

Guys: Likewise!

Take: You got anything you want to say?

Haru: Huh?

Haru: Uh...

Haru: W-We'll do our best out there!

Take: Okay, next up, "Bentenz."

Take: So... that takes care of that.

Take: We have some newbies in here tonight,

Take: so all of us old fogies need to watch out for them.

Ita: We're Itaya and Ueki.

Tsubaki: Itaya-kun and Ueki-kun...

Tsubaki: Oh, there you are.

Tsubaki: Here you go. There's no re-entry, so be careful.

Ita: Thanks.

Tsubaki: Go ahead and pick a drink.

Ita: I want a cola. What about you, Ueki?

Ita: Uenoyama! Mafuyu!

Yayoi: Akihiko!

Haru: She showed up...

Aki: Hey.

Yayoi: Hey, is Ritsuka okay?

Ugetsu: Akihiko.

Aki: Wow, you actually showed up.

Ugetsu: I did, but I don't expect much.

Aki: Shut your mouth, Mr. Perfect.

Ugetsu: I'll look forward to the show.

Ueki: There's a pretty good crowd here.

Ita: I'm not surprised. I mean, Uenoyama's performing.

Ita: He's actually pretty famous at venues around here.

Ita: He used to make his own CDs, and they'd always sell out.

Ueki: Huh...

Ita: Considering what a big shot Uenoyama is,

Ita: I have high hopes for Sato, since Uenoyama invited him in.

Take: Ha-ru-ki!

Sign: Stand-in

Haru: Ow...

Take: Hey, you guys gonna be okay?

take: That kid is your vocalist, right?

Haru: Take-chan.

Take: 'Sup?

Haru: Um...

Haru: If sh*t goes down, could we get an extra song or two played before our set?

Take: You're in that much trouble?

Haru: I mean... You saw our rehearsal.

Take: Yeah, you're screwed.

Haru: I know, right?!

Take: Well, I'm the one who asked you guys to play with us,

Take: so I'll cover your a*s if I have to.

Haru: Thanks.

Ritsu: Well, we're screwed.

Ritsu: Let's go without vocals this time.

Ritsu: I'm actually relieved, kinda.

Ritsu: What the hell is this?

Ritsu: I'm the worst.

Ritsu: I mean, we've always been an instrumental band.

Aki: I'm not gonna fight you on this.

Ritsu: There's always next time.

Mafu: Next time?

Mafu: When?

Ritsu: Well, I mean, we don't have any lyrics, so what else are we supposed to do?

Mafu: Uenoyama-kun.

Mafu: This is the first time I've heard you give up.

Ritsu: What?!

Mafu: You're always telling me to go for it. That I can do it.

Ritsu: Well, time to wake the hell up!

Ritsu: You couldn't do it!
