| -- Veludo Way (Day) -- | |
|---|---|
| Izumi: | Come see the Mankai Company perform in Romeo and Julius! |
| Sakuya: | Here, have a flyer! |
| Citron: | Here you are! |
| Sakuya: | We keep passing them out, but nobody's taking them. |
| Izumi: | Theaters are a dime a dozen on Veludo Way. If people took every flyer handed out here, they could fill a bookshelf with them. |
| Masumi: | Romeo... Montague? I don't believe it. Are you really Romeo of House Montague? |
| Passerby A: | Huh? |
| Passerby B: | What's going on? |
| Passerby A: | Is that Romeo and Juliet? |
| Masumi: | Romeo, why do you have to be Romeo Montague? |
| Izumi: | Ooh, that's it! Get some attention with a street act from the play itself! |
| Sakuya: | Good idea! |
| Tsuzuru: | For real? |
| Sakuya: | Let's go on a journey together, Julius. We can ditch this cramped town and travel the world. |
| Masumi: | You've got brawn, Romeo, and I've got brains. If we put our heads together, we can do anything. |
| Sakuya: | You're right! Together, we can go anywhere! |
| Sakuya: | You join in too, Tsuzuru! |
| Tsuzuru: | Uh. |
| Izumi: | This isn't your first street act, right? |
| Tsuzuru: | Yeah, it's just, it's kinda weird acting out lines I wrote in public... |
| Izumi: | Well, you won't even be acting them out in private much longer if we don't turn this around! |
| Tsuzuru: | ...Yeah, point. |
| Tsuzuru: | Romeo, are you heartbroken? Don't worry about it. There's plenty of fish in the sea. |
| Passerby B: | That's Romeo and Juliet, right? |
| Passerby A: | But where both parts of the couple are male. Now you're talking! |
| Sakuya: | Forsake your home and name, Julius. Don't we have an even grander dream to share?! |
| Masumi: | I can't. I can't forsake my family. |
| Haruto: | ...Talk about amateur hour. |
| Tasuku: | Don't be that guy, Haruto. |
| Haruto: | I'm just callin' it like I see it. |
| Tsuzuru: | What's your problem? |
| Haruto: | Whoops, didn't mean for you to hear that, I guess. |
| Tsuzuru: | How about you say it loud and clear if you've got a problem with us? |
| Haruto: | You guys just seemed like amateurs to me. Your reaction's proving me right. |
| Tsuzuru: | Look, I don't know who you are, but- |
| Izumi: | Calm down, Tsuzuru. |
| Izumi: | Sorry about that. He was out of line. |
| Tasuku: | No, we were. |
| Izumi: | Hey, I remember you guys. I ran into you doing a street act on Veludo Way before! |
| Tsuzuru: | Oh yeah, those guys! |
| Tasuku: | Yeah, we do that a lot for publicity. |
| Passerby A: | It's Tasuku and Haruto from the God Troupe! |
| Passerby B: | Wow, the top boys! So cool! |
| Izumi: | (They struck me as solid actors before. I see they've got a following, too.) |
| Haruto: | So what, are these your actors? Are you their rep? |
| Izumi: | I'm their director, yes. |
| Haruto: | Oh yeah? Then go on, do something. I wanna see what kind of director raises talent this bad. |
| Izumi: | I'm sorry, what? |
| Tsuzuru: | Seriously, what's with this guy? |
| Sakuya: | I don't like where this is going. |
| Masumi: | You want a fight? You got one. |
| Izumi: | Guys. Please. I'm fine. |
| Izumi: | (This is a huge waste of time. We need to just disengage and go somewhere else.) |
| Izumi: | Ahem. Let's go on a journey together, Julius. We can ditch this cramped town and travel the world. |
| Haruto: | ... |
| Haruto: | Like, seriously? What WAS that? Some kind of joke? A director that can't act, talk about the blind leading the blind. |
| Tasuku: | Knock it off, Haruto. |
| Izumi: | (He can knock the acting and make fun of me if he wants. All I care about is getting through this performance.) |
| Izumi: | You've made your point, now how about you stop interrupting and go on your way? |
| Haruto: | Where do you get off, directing these guys when you couldn't act your way out of a wet paper bag? |
| Masumi: | I'll end you. |
| Izumi: | Masumi, stop it! |
| Tsuzuru: | I don't like this one bit, but let it go. |
| Tasuku: | Haruto, you're way out of line. |
| Haruto: | Oh, come on! |
| Tasuku: | Sorry to interrupt your show. Keep it up. |
| Izumi: | Thank you. Here, why don't you take one of these? |
| Tasuku: | Thanks. |
| Haruto: | Why the hell would you take one of their flyers? |
| Tasuku: | Oh shut up and get moving, Haruto. |
| Haruto: | Fine, whatever. |
| Masumi: | ...They suck. |
| Izumi: | Focus, guys. Keep going. |
| Sakuya: | Ma'am... |
| Tsuzuru: | Don't let it get to you. |
| Citron: | That was just armwear peckling! |
| Izumi: | ...Was that supposed to be "armchair heckling"? |
| Izumi: | Anyway, don't worry about it. You can't let every little jab bother you. |
| Izumi: | (I couldn't improve my acting no matter how much I practiced, but my experience is helping the others. So what he said doesn't even bother me. |
| Izumi: | (I couldn't leave my mark as an actor, but I can sure do my part as a director.) |
| Masumi: | ... |
| Izumi: | Come see the Mankai Company perform in Romeo and Julius! |
| Timid-Looking Boy: | Excuse me, um, may I take one of those? |
| Izumi: | Absolutely! Here you go! |
| Timid-Looking Boy: | Thank you... |
| Izumi: | Romeo and Julius, coming soon to a theater near you! Come see it live! |
| Snotty-Looking Boy: | Romeo and JuliUS? A guy-guy pairing? What kind of weird plot is that? |
| Izumi: | Here, it's all on the flyer. You're welcome to come see for yourself. |
| Snotty-Looking Boy: | Sure, guess I'll take one. |
| -- Living Room (Night) -- | |
| Izumi: | We've got most of our flyers handed out, and our website's hit counter is going up thanks to Itaru plugging us. |
| Manager: | Yeah, people are posting comments on the blog posts, too. |
| Izumi: | How are ticket sales coming along? |
| Manager: | We've started filling more seats than before, but we're nowhere near a full house. |
| Izumi: | Dang... |
| Manager: | I think we'll be lucky to get half the seats filled at the rate we're going. Crap, I think out theater might- |
| Izumi: | Easy, there, we've got another three weeks. We'll come up with something. We have to. |
| Manager: | Uh, right! |
| Izumi: | (That's easier said than done, though. How do we sell more tickets?) |
