summer vacation - ( the brutes and nobles 4 )



Location: Underground Live House

< Some time later. >

Koga: Ugaaaahh! This is pissin’ me off!

What’s with the guests bein’ so damn rude today?!

They're puffin' smoke from their cigarettes over there and guzzlin' down their alcohol over here, spillin' their food all over
the place while shouting. This is the freakin' worst!

This place is totally bein' run by that playboy. It's so fulla shallow, easygoin' people that it's drivin' me crazy!

Hey! Y’gotta teach your guests how to act right, dammit!

Kaoru:
You don't have to snap at me. I mean, you probably don’t know Doggie, but… running a live house these days is
actually super hard.

It’s been a while since the band boom, so.

Attracting guests has been hard, let alone people who actually want to perform. Live houses throughout Japan are falling
into the red and steadily going out of business.

It's not like the flashy world of showbiz you see in a TV screen. The underground's a living hell that preys on brats just
trying to get established.

I'm out here steadily making a profit despite the circumstances, though... pretty incredible, right? Maybe I'd be better off
being a manager than an idol~. ♪

The customer is always right as long as they're spending a ton, so try to put up with their behavior a little.

Koga:
Shut it! My patience gave out a while ago!

Agh, this put me in a bad mood! There ain't a single soul in here even listenin' to our awesome music. There's no point in holdin' a live here!

I wanna sing on a more serious stage, not this hole-in-the-wall downtown!

I'm not sayin' it's gotta be at the Budoukan or whatever, but at least somewhere where it'll pay off if we go all out!

Ahh, dammit! The disgustin' smell of cigarettes is stickin' to my uniform! It's makin' me nauseous! I'm gonna claw all the
skin off my body!

Adonis:
Now, now… calm down, Oogami. What’s wrong? You’re in a really bad mood today.

Rei:
Anyone would find themselves cranky with how downright sweltering the weather's been lately. I'm feeling a bit fed
up myself~. It's truly the hardest season for a vampire to survive in.

Kaoru:
Ahahah. The heat's seriously killing everyone. We're totally drenched after a single song.

It's suffocating down here... well, we're cutting back on the AC to save energy, so.

Adonis:
Hm. That’s great, Hakaze-senpai. It’s important to be eco-friendly.

Kaoru:
I'm pretty conscientious when it comes to that stuff~. There'll be no swimming in the ocean if the air and water are polluted.

Adonis:
The sea, huh... it'd be nice and cool if we held another performance at the waterside like PirateFes. Do we have any similar projects lined up?

Koga:
Hah. Everyone's thinkin' the same way, anyway...

Any job too juicy to pass up woulda been snatched up in no time before summer vacation even started.

Dammit. We ended up fallin' behind thanks to a certain someone who couldn't get their shit together...

Well, lately even that playboy's been actin' all positive about our activities, so I guess it ain't so bad.

Kaoru:
Yep. I'm taking this seriously in my own way so be thankful. All I reeeally want to do during my summer vacation
is play around on my favorite beach.

I wanted to enjoy the summer as much as I could with a bunch of cute girls... yet here I am, poor, pitiful me, listening to a
bunch of spoiled brats complain instead~. ♪

Koga:
Who're you callin' a spoiled brat?! Quit treatin' me like a kid all the time!

All you've ever done 'til now is slack off, so you better work twice as hard from now on to balance things out, got it?!

Kaoru:
Right, right. I'll do my beeeest — without too much effort, I mean.

Adonis:
( Fufu. But I couldn't be happier with Hakaze-senpai being motivated lately since that means everyone in
UNDEAD gets together more often. )

( We still have a lot of problems to solve before 'it's all smooth sailing from here' —or so I believe it's said. )

( We can accomplish whatever's difficult alone, together. )

( Our future is bright, but is it all right for me to believe that? )

Yuzuru:
If you'd please excuse me, ah... would you allow me to take up some of your time?

Koga:
Huh. You're that, uh... damn elegant butler from our class. Fushimi, right? Looks like you got Anzu taggin' along
with you too. You need us for somethin'?

Yuzuru:
Yes. I've come to make a proposal to you and everyone else in UNDEAD today.

If it's convenient for you, I'd like you to join me for a meal so I can talk about the details in full.

I'll handle all the costs, naturally, so I would greatly appreciate it if would consider it.

Koga:
Aahn? The hell... — sounds like a pain. If it's somethin' simple then just spit it out already!

Everything's gotta be so damn tedious with you!

Rei:
Now, now. You have to behave yourself more, Puppy. How embarrassing...

You're Fushimi-kun of fine, I believe; one of Tenshouin-kun's confidants?

Then we ought to handle this in a way that won't leave regrets in the distant future. Given that we'll be able to replenish
our strength and satisfy our hunger right after our performance, we'll gladly take part.

We should hear in detail what you have to say and closely examine this "proposal" of yours.

Kukuku. I look forward to whatever heated topic takes place. ♪
