| Tasuku: | ..... |
| Tasuku: | (The Winter Troupe needs to build up their stamina. Think I'll add more exercises to our morning training...) |
| Tsumugi: | Oof... |
| Tasuku: | Huh? |
| Tsumugi: | Hmm... I guess I took on too many of these boxes at once... |
| Tasuku: | Hey, Tsumugi. |
| Tsumugi: | Whoa! |
| Tasuku: | Watch out! |
| Tsumugi: | Uh! |
| Tasuku: | What the heck are you doing? |
| Tsumugi: | Tasuku... Thanks for catching those for me. |
| Tasuku: | There's no way you can carry all those boxes yourself. Gimme some, I'll help. |
| Tsumugi: | Don't worry about it. I can do it. |
| Tasuku: | Listen, it’ll be faster if I help. This is painful to watch... |
| Tsumugi: | Sorry... Thanks. |
| Tasuku: | Where are you carrying them anyway? |
| Tsumugi: | The storage room over there. |
| Tasuku: | The storage room, got it. |
| Tsumugi: | You're amazing, Tasuku. I could barely lift them up! |
| Tasuku: | Yeah, well I work out more than you. |
| Tsumugi: | I guess I should start working out some more, too... |
| Tasuku: | I was just thinking about that, actually. You know, adding some exercises to our morning training to increase our stamina. |
| Sakuya: | ..... |
| Sakuya | Stamina, huh... |
 | |
| Tasuku: | Phew... |
| Sakuya: | ..... |
| Tasuku: | (I still have some time before rehearsal, so maybe I'll go for a jog.) |
| Sakuya: | Hmm... |
| Tasuku: | ….. |
| Sakuya: | Hmm... |
| Tasuku: | …What? |
| Sakuya: | Ah, s-sorry! |
| Tasuku: | If you've got something to say, then say it. |
| Sakuya: | Um, more like I've got something to ask you. It's no big deal, though. |
| Tasuku: | What is it? |
| Sakuya: | It’s kinda dumb... Are you sure? |
| Tasuku: | Just hurry up and spit it out. |
| Sakuya: | Um… How can I get big and muscular like you? |
| Tasuku: | Huh? |
| Sakuya: | When I saw you carrying those boxes, you looked so strong and cool! |
| Tasuku: | Oh, so that's what this is about. |
| Sakuya: | I wanna be big and brawny like you! |
| Tasuku: | I dunno if I'd say I'm brawny. |
| Sakuya: | You’re definitely brawny! How do you do it? And how can I? |
| Tasuku: | I'm not sure how to answer that... |
| Sakuya: | S-sorry, for the weird question. I know it was kind of out of nowhere. |
| Tasuku: | It's fine. |
| Sakuya: | Don’t worry about it. Sorry for bothering you again! |
| Tasuku: | Ah. Why don't you just move a little every day? |
| Sakuya: | Just move? |
| Tasuku: | Well, not just move. You gotta eat a lot and sleep a lot. You're still not done growing yet. |
| Tasuku: | Just doing light exercise and concentrating on growing is better for you than pushing yourself with weight training. |
| Sakuya: | Oh, I get it! Thanks! |
| Sakuya: | But what do you mean by light exercise? What should I do? |
| Tasuku: | Well, I'm about to go jogging. Wanna come? |
| Sakuya: | Can I?! |
| Tasuku: | Sure. |
| Sakuya: | I might slow you down, though. I've only exercised at school and during rehearsal. |
| Tasuku: | We can start slow and build up to it, then. |
| Tasuku: | Once you get used to it we'll speed up. I'll be right there by your side the whole time. |
| Sakuya: | Really?! Thank you!! |
| Tasuku: | All right. Get ready and meet me by the front door. |
| Sakuya: | All right! |
 | |
| Sakuya: | Here I am! |
| Tasuku: | You're gonna run in that? |
| Sakuya: | I thought it'd be easy to move in. Is it no good? |
| Tasuku: | I wouldn't say it's not good, but... What are those shoes? |
| Sakuya: | My sneakers! |
| Tasuku: | ...... |
| Sakuya: | Tasuku? |
| Tasuku: | They're not the right size. |
| Tasuku: | They're fine for everyday use, but it's gonna hurt if you run in those after a while. |
| Tasuku: | You need proper running shoes if we're going to do this. I'll take you shopping sometime. |
| Sakuya: | Okay! |
| Tasuku: | All right, let's go for a light 10 km jog. |
| Sakuya: | 10 km?! That's light?! |
| Tasuku: | Yeah, piece of cake. |
| Sakuya: | I-I’ll try my best!! |
 | |
| Sakuya: | Huff, huff... Can't... Breathe... |
| Tasuku: | Hey, you okay? Bought you sports drink. |
| Sakuya: | T-Thank you! Ahhh! That really hit the spot! |
| Tasuku: | Sorry. I totally thought you could do it. I used to run 10 km every day in junior, so... |
| Sakuya: | I-It's fine! It's my fault for not being in shape! |
| Tasuku: | I forgot that Tsumugi always used to say I'm obsessed with keeping up my stamina. Now I see what he meant. |
| Sakuya: | So you've been working out every day since you were a kid, huh? |
| Tasuku: | Yep... Exercise was like a hobby to me. Never really gave it much thought, though. |
| Tasuku: | But thinking back on it, I've jogged every day since grade school. |
| Sakuya: | So those muscles were built up little by little ever since then! I've gotta keep up, then! |
| Tasuku: | Sounds good. Keep at it. |
 | |
| Sakuya: | Tasuku, look at this! They’re having a sale on athletic wear! |
| Tasuku: | Hey, perfect. Let’s go there tomorrow, then. |
| Tasuku: | And while we're at it, let's get you some new clothes too. Since you can jog more now, it's time for you to get the right gear. |
| Sakuya: | Okay! |
| Tasuku: | You could barely make 10 km at first, but now you're doin' great. |
| Sakuya: | It’s all thanks to you! Do you think I've grown stronger? |
| Tasuku: | Yeah, and you’re looking a bit more muscular too. |
| Sakuya: | Now I wanna try even harder!! |
| Tsumugi: | ...Since when did those two get so close? |
| Itaru: | That's a rare sight. |
| Citron: | It looks like they have unlocked a special event! |
| Itaru: | Ooh. Gotcha. |
| Tsumugi: | What's a special event? |
| Citron: | You know, an event that doesn't normally occur! |
| Itaru: | You usually need to clear a bunch of achievements to unlock 'em. They're rare but also super hard. |
| Citron: | The rarer the better, I say! |
| Itaru: | Same. |
| Tsumugi: | U-Um, okay...? |
