resurrection sunday of the undying ( reincarnation 5 )

[mandytl]

Location: Resurrection Sunday Assembly Hall

< The day of the performance, a week since the planning of Resurrection Sunday. >

Koga: ...

Yuta: Heeey, Oogami-senpai! Wakey wakey!

Hinata: Yeah, yeah! You’re not a vampire or a Spaniard, so don’t go napping in broad daylight!

Yuta: If you won't get up we'll scribble on you~. ♪

Hinata: We'll write "dog" on your forehead~. ♪

Koga: Ugaaah, stuff it! It ain't like I'm sleepin'. I was just shuttin’ my eyes to improve my concentration before the actual gig!

Hinata: Wah — so you were meditating? Just like a monk!

Yuta: Ahahah. Oogami-senpai's surprisingly serious about this stuff. ♪

Koga: Aahn? It's just habit. I'd definitely get more out of doin' this that way, but...

I always make sure t'kickstart my heart like this before goin' on stage ever since that breakup...

Hinata: ... "that"?

Koga: Never mind. Ugh. Ended up sayin' somethin' weird since I'm a little drowsy.

Yuta: Ahahah. So you were sleeping.

Koga: Freakin' shut it already... you're about to be on too, so get to warmin' up.

It's been a while since you two've had a huge job. Don't go draggin' us down with ya if you mess up on somethin', got it?

Hinata: No problem! We're strong where it counts.♪

Yuta: Maybe you are, Aniki, but I'm looking up to Oogami-senpai more here. ♪

Koga: That so. You two ain't half bad...

Wh — you already changed into your costumes?

We were gonna have a meal before goin' on stage. You guys get too excited when you eat; watch it so y'don't stain your clothes.

Yuta: Ahahah. Excuse us for the bad manners. Our parents didn't really discipline us.

Hinata: Well they tried, but we rejected them so stubbornly that we didn't learn a thing.

We're sorry, really~. Guess we're not cut out to be foodie idols¹, though.

Yuta: Are you trying to be one, Aniki?

Hinata: I mean, we're pretty big eaters, so wouldn't it be surprisingly fitting?

Koga: Man. Quit thinking about all that unnecessary crap and concentrate on your singing and dancing first.

Pretty sure they say a little knowledge is a dangerous thing²... you've gotta dabble in other fields before you're a real Jack-of-all trades.

Yuta: Wah! Oogami-senpai's of all people's lecturing us?

Hinata: Ahahah. Now you're acting like our senpai~. ♪

Koga: Aahn? I am your senpai. Show me some respect, stupid twins!

Keito: ... cease with the incessant chirping, you three.

The guests are already inside and watching. How embarrassing... you fledglings must really not have what it takes to pull off a big job like this perfectly.

Koga: Hey, hey. Your lines are too long for someone who just showed up, y'damn Four Eyes.

Keito: Don't swear — and don't make me lecture you again about the fact that we're surrounded by guests. How incorrigible.

I digress; I'm going to patrol the crowd we're drawing and monitor the atmosphere in case any trouble arises.

I'll leave this area to the transfer student. She's in charge.

Yuta: Ah, Transfer Student-san! Thanks for always working so hard~. ♪

Hinata: Yeah, thanks~. Used to being a producer yet? Feel free to ask us anything if something doesn't make sense. ♪

Koga: Dunno why they're patronizin' her, but... whatever. More importantly, d'you know where any of the other guys from UNDEAD are?

We talked about meetin' up at the site, but not a single one of 'em's shown up no matter how long I wait. I'm startin' to get a little worried.

Keito: Hmm. Did you try calling, Oogami?

Koga: Nngh. Adonis and that damn vampire don't know a thing about smart phones. I don't know that playboy's number, either.

I tried askin' him for it once and he just said, "It's not for guys to know. ♪".

Keito: Honestly... he's a habitual idler who's going to hate it when work constantly tries to get in contact.

Every last one of you’s a handful to manage. How incorrigible.

By the way. Otogari arrived early to work on setting up the site with Kanzaki.

I cautioned him not to waste his stamina since he’s going to be standing on stage too, but…

He persisted with a, “It’s fine. I’m well-trained” … I don't know whether it's because Sakuma's been poor with teaching or not, but you all have too much freedom.

Fall in line a little more and listen to what someone tells you.

Koga: Hah! Like we plan on actin' all prim and proper. There ain't a soul out there who can collar us. ♪

Keito: I'm starting to doubt your work. Trust is vital in business, so show the proper respect towards your employer.
___
¹ Hinata's using the term 食べドル, or more literally put, an "eating idol". It's an idol trend where they promote various foods to increase their amount of dining friends, or fanbase. I opted for the term foodie.
² A proverb and slight misquotation of a saying by Alexander Pope. It implies that just a little learning on various subjects will mislead you into thinking you're an expert.
