Tumblr media
Izumi  
Is everyone here?
Sakuya  
Spring troupe here, all present!
Tenma  
Summer too.
Banri  
Autumn troupe all good.
Tsumugi  
Everyone in Winter Troupe is also present.
Izumi  
Thank you so much. So, let’s begin. I have a favour to ask of you guys. Well I have this stuff here and...
Tenma  
.... Hey, I totally remember that thing you have in that paper bag. Banri  It’s.... it’s an apron, of course.
Citron  
Looks like pajamas!
Tsuzuru  
Now that you say that I think I remember....
Masumi  
We did it last year too.
Izumi  
I had a feeling everyone would catch on. We will also be hosting the Valentine’s Day exclusive Actor’s Cafe this year too.
Azami  
Actor’s Cafe?
Kazunari  
Yea the actor’s Cafe is well, I guess you could call just a theme cafe!
Homare  
The staff are all actors that rotate each day serving customers. 
Tenma  
During last year’s during the event, we performed in a segment called “Theatre Time” where we performed an etude with a given scenario .
Itaru  
Honestly that was the only unreasonable part of the job....
Omi  
Oh, I got the feeling that it helped us train our acting skills.
Muku  
That’s right..! Even though it was a little rough at times, it was fun just being together.
Kumon  
Wow~! That  does sound pretty fun! Did the whole troupe do it?
Juza  
Yea. Last year everyone had to work a shift.
Kazunari  
Yea, it was a pretty exciting Valentine’s Day. Even on SNS, people wouldn’t stop talking about it~!
Taichi  
Wow I’m feeling nostalgic~! The theme for last year’s event was ‘family’ and we each played a role of one of six brothers as we served the customers.
Izumi  
That’s right! However last year they announced the theme the day of, but this year they gave us the theme ahead of time.
Azuma  
Oh, yes that is different from how they did it last year.
Tsuzuru  
Well knowing the theme beforehand gives us time to think about who will be working when and such, bless us.
Izumi 
 This is the theme list.
Misumi  
Wow, so many themes!
Guy  
For my teacher, my brother..
Matsukawa 
.. OH!! One of the themes is, ‘glasses’!
Could this be… My big break!?
Sakyo  
What the hell are you saying? You’re supposed to be helping backstage.
Banri  
Anyway, that glasses theme sounds a bit tough, don’t you think? It stands out from the others on the list too.
Izumi  
Glasses hmm.. But I think it shouldn’t be too hard to pick people who fit the theme, right?
Chikage  
.. Director, I think I know what you’re thinking,
Sakyo  
Tch.
Izumi  
Ahaha, sorry, well umm..
Sakuya  
So does that mean it’s decided? I think the ones who would do the best are the ones who already wear glasses all the tine.
Tasuku  
That is true. If those two do not have any objections, let’s go with them for this theme.
Kazunari  
Ah, how about I join the glasses-wearers line up too? My eyesight’s pretty bad so I’ve worn glasses before!
Yuki  
If that’s your reasoning, then should the deciding factor should be people with bad eye sight, right?
Izumi  
I see, yea maybe we should go with that.... Alright then, let’s see a show of hands of who has bad eye sight!
To be continued.... Read part 2 here!

Epilogue “Happy Valentines”
Tumblr media
Izumi 
So then, we’re all set with the following people to work on the glasses theme day. We have Chikage and Sakyo since they already wear glasses every day, and then--
We have the ones who raised their hands before, let’s see, Kazunari, Tsumugi, Itaru, and Homare.
Taichi 
I really had no idea that anyone besides Sakyo-nii and Chikage had bad eyesight.
Homare 
It’s because we usually wear contacts.
Muku 
Just thinking about the others wearing glasses..... Somehow it feels like something straight out of a shoujo manga, it’s giving me tummy butterflies!
Tsuzuru 
I wonder if your eyesight is really that bad, Chikage....
Chikage 
Haha, oh I wonder.
Kazunari 
Hey, do you think we will be alright with just including the members with bad eyesight?
I remember it was mega crazy when I lost my glasses that one time! That shit was wild! We could do something kinda like that for the cafe, right?
Sakyo 
There is no way we would do something like that.
Citron 
But Sakyo, wasn’t there that one time where you forgot your glasses and then fell into the kiddie pool?
Sakyo 
Huh?
Izumi 
Oh, do you think we should add in one person who has good eyesight? Just to be completely sure we will have enough people...
Tsumugi 
It’s something to consider, I think it better to have one more person for the cafe.
Sakyo
Tch.... How about that guy over there who’s been sleeping this whole time?
Hisoka 
Zzzzzzz....
Izumi 
Alright.
Kazunari 
Hey, Furuche, why did you reject my initial proposal? Ouch, I took an arrow to the knee~
Misumi 
It’s ok, Kazu.
Kumon 
Don’t mind him, Kazu!
Izumi 
So we will have the members in glasses that I mentioned earlier along with Hsioka, which makes for a total of seven people. Thank you everyone.
Chikage 
Roger that.
Izumi 
Alright then, let’s start the meeting.
Tsumugi 
Wow the glasses theme day isn’t too far away. It’s the first theme we will be doing, but it’s the only one we haven’t nailed down any roles for.
Izumi 
You’re right. The owner had requested to meet with everyone before the first day of the cafe to prepare.
Hisoka 
.... How did I suddenly get thrown into this theme....?
Homare 
I already explained it to your earlier with marshmallows, remember?
Chikage 
Too bad you were sleeping.
Sakyo 
Anyway, there are many things we can do for valentines day that involve glasses.
It is not just about wearing glasses. We also must consider what type of character we want to become, we should think about it.
Kazunari 
Gotcha~!
Tsumugi 
Umm, a glasses character....
Chikage 
This is a bit simplistic, but I think about a butler-like character.
Kazunari 
Oh~! A butler in glasses!
Homare 
Hmm, butler you say? Well I know a thing or two about playing a butler after all. I could use some of the skills I learned for my role study from back then....
Izumi
H-Huh, w-what a surprise. What’s up, Itaru?
Itaru 
You don’t understand, You guys don’t understand a single thing....
Tsumugi 
I-Itaru....?
Itaru 
If you are going with the butler character, then everyone would need to use polite speech and say stuff like ‘Welcome, please come inside, Madam,’, right?
There is no way it is as simple as Mr. Normie-senpai over here says. You feel me, right? So let’s start again and think about a character who would wear glasses---
Izumi 
C-Could you tone it down a bit, Itaru?
Itaru 
HAVE YOU GUYS EVER PAID ATTENTION TO GLASSES CHARACTERS AT ALL!? THINK ABOUT THE WHOLE ESSENCE OF GLASSES CHARACTERS---
Kazunari 
Wow, Itarun, ya look so cool all fired up!
Chikage 
On the contrary, no matter how you look it, he is just a kid with an otaku flame burning in his soul.
Hisoka 
Otaku flame.... How annoying.
Itaru 
There are so many things that come to mind when you say ‘glasses character’. For example Sakyo and Mr. Normie-senpai are completely different characters.
Tsumugi 
Yea you have a point there.
Sakyo 
Huh.... Well if you are so fired up, how about using some of that passion and making a suggestion for the Actor’s Cafe theme.
Itaru 
....... Alright. And in exchange I would like your help for my role study.
Chikage 
.... This was quite the meeting.
Itaru 
Were you listening to any of what I said, Mr. Normie-senpai?
Homare 
Sooooooo theeennnnnn, guess we can all call it a night since we gotta wait for Itaru to give us an idea.
Tsumugi 
I guess so. I look forward to hearing what type of character he suggests.
Hisoka 
..... Good work today.
Chikage 
Nice work.
Izumi 
Oh, Chikage, do you have a moment?
Chikage 
Hm?
Izumi 
Well.... Sorry for keeping you. It was just about the Actor’s Cafe-- It’s a Valentine’s event so I think there is probably going to be a lot of female guests there. Depending on the character you will be playing, you may need to make some friendly small talk with them. Do you get where I’m going with this? Is that alright with you?
Chikage 
Yes, I understand. I am alright if it is for work.
I work alongside many women at my company so you do not need to worry about my professional manner.
Izumi 
I see, alright then. But if anything happens. please feel free to speak to me.
Chikage 
Yes, thank you.

Epilogue “Happy Valentines”
Tumblr media
Izumi  
Alright then, thank you so much for your time to make these advanced preparations. Here are the members who will be working on the first day.
Tsumugi  
Thank you very much.
Owner  
No, I am the one who should be thankful. I am so happy to be able to have Mankai company work at this cafe again this year.
Izumi  
Oh, and I want to apologise in advanced. Unfortunately due to everyone’s schedule, it seems like only a few people will be available each day.
Owner  
That’s alright, no need to worry.
Izumi  
Well, we didn’t think we would get the themes in advanced this year.
Owner  
Ahh.... Yea, well you see...
The reason for that is... Actually, I can’t let the cafe fail.
Homare  
What do you mean you can’t let the cafe fail?
Owner  
Well... I guess I should tell you all now.
Ever since that new cafe opened across the street, we’ve been losing customers over here. It’s been pretty tough on management.
I even had to take out loans for rent... They said if I couldn’t pay it all back I would be evicted.
Kazunari  
Ohhh....
Itaru  
Hey, where have I heard that before?
Izumi 
Now that you mention it....
Sakyo 
What’s with you guys. If there is something you wanna say, spit it out.
Izumi  
N-No, nothing at all.
Owner  
I don’t want to be evicted so that’s why this year’s Actor’s Cafe needs to be a success.
So that’s why I gave you the themes ahead of time. It was because I hoped with more time you could polish your performance.
It was so you guys could deliver your best work, it’s not because I had any doubts in your ability, don’t get me wrong.
Tsumugi  
We understand. It does help us quite a bit with our role study if we know the themes beforehand.
Sakyo  
Back to the previous subject, what type of place is this rival restaurant?
Owner  
Well.... It’s actually a copy-cat of this one it seems. That restaurant also has actors working as floor staff.
Izumi  
HUH!? FOR REAL!?
Chikage  
Well knowing about the huge success from last year’s cafe, it is no surprise that a copy-cat cafe has sprung up.
Owner  
Moreover, I thought this cafe would have an upper hand if the actors at the other cafe were not as good at fanservice or acting, but their performance is quite a hit with customers.
I hear that people even call it the ‘Kabe-don Cafe” because the staff really appeal to their female customers with their kabe-don act.
Hisoka  
Kabe-don cafe....
Itaru  
Seems like a hit with young girls.
Owner  
I don’t want to give up my dreams for this cafe! That’s why I am counting on you guys, I need to pay back the loans!
Kazunari  
We gotchu!
Izumi  
We have been working at this cafe so many times, there is nothing like it.
We’re gonna go our very best! Let’s work hard to pay back those loans!
Owner  
Yes, thank you so much!
Chikage  
First thing’s first, we must gather information on our enemy.
Sakyo  
Let’s start off with the most basic things.
Homare  
Hmm, I think we should go to the other cafe to take a look.
