Intermission: The Setting Where The Two Are Best Friends
The location is the after-school classroom. Two girls are looking at a brochure on a table between them.
They are looking at a list of clothes available for rental. These are the costumes they need for the class play at Tsuwabuki Fest.
One of the girls, Anna Yanami, pointed at a photo on the list.
Yanami is referring to the white kimono. There is a triangular headscarf on top as well.
“Oh, it’s a ghost. Just like Oiwa-san.” [TL: Oiwa from <Yotsuya Kaidan>.]
The person who answered was Karen Himemiya. Despite the windless interior, her lengthy hair is swaying around. Even though the sky is cloudy, sparkles of stars are floating around her.
“It’s autumn already. Shouldn’t I become more mature at this point? I think it’s time for me to dress up and showcase myself.”
“Anna is such a bright and charming girl. I think it’s okay for you to try gap moe.” Here, look at this one. Isn’t this very cute?”
Karen is pointing at the female demon outfit. It’s a miniskirt plus a headband attached with wings.
“Ah, this is great. But it’s showing the shoulders and chest. Is that alright?”
“A little bit is fine, not to mention how adorable the upper body is. It’s almost like a wedding dress-”
Karen’s voice died down and turned vague in the middle.
“...Ah, hmm, something like that. I think even though the exposure is a little high, it’s cute enough.”
“I-Indeed! Karen-chan’s skin is so smooth and bright. It’s fine for you to show a bit more!”
Yanami tried her best to maintain her cheerful tone. She flipped to the next page.
“Look, Karen-chan. There’s a special article!”
“You’re right! Let me see. It should be for Halloween-”
The two girls closed in on the brochure.
<-Waiting for a proposal is too late! Now’s the time! An article on wedding dresses!>
“............”
“............”
Yanami and Karen glared at this page silently. Then, one of them immediately closed the brochure.
“Uh, …Anna, I’ll go with the demon. Yep, it’s quite cute, after all.”
“I’ll choose the ghost, then. I’m making my debut on maturity. …I’m a mature girl.”
The two smiled at each other powerlessly. Then, they wrote something on the paper in their hands. It’s the application form for the clothing team.
Karen’s hand reached toward the brochure while filling out the form.
“Right, we have to write down the sizes of our clothes. Anna, you need to reference this as well, hmm?”
Karen said as she carefully opened the brochure.
…She must not turn to the wedding article at this time.
Karen trembled. She managed to flip to the Halloween outfit page.
Yanami and Karen sighed in relief. They looked at each other and laughed.
“Karen-chan, it’s just flipping pages. Why are you so nervous?”
“You too, Anna. Alright, let’s decide on the size of our outfits. Let me see…”
Karen frowned while reading the brochure.
“What’s wrong? Karen-chan can definitely fit in with such a slim waist, right?”
“Well, …my chest probably can’t fit in the biggest size here.”
“What.”
Yanami rudely grabbed the brochure and stared daggers at the size chart.
“Karen-chan, I’ll go ahead and ask this. How big are yours?”
After looking around and confirming that no one was around, Karen wrote down 3 numbers on the table.
Yanami couldn’t help but look to the sky and sigh.
…Don’t people say a person can’t have two good qualities. How come Karen Himemiya is beautiful and kind- and now her chest ranks at the top in the school?
Yanami is ashamed. She looked at Karen and mumbled.
Don’t boobs count as two things already…?
