summer vacation - ( the barbaric and the elegant 2 )

[mandytl]

 

Location: Port City

Rei: Heeey, everyone. ♪ You seem cheerful for whatever reason. Though you’ll only exhaust yourself if you’re this energetic this early.

Koga: Ah, y’damn vampire! Quit actin’ like it was obvious you were gonna be late. I was worried ya went and collapsed on the way here!

Rei: Fufu. I wanted to turn back a number of times due to the harsh sunlight, but… 

You’d be eating out of Tenshouin-kun’s palm if I left you alone, so I did my best to come here on foot. 

Kaoru: You literally didn’t walk even half of it, Sakuma-san. I got a call out of nowhere… where he was like, begging me to come carry him the rest of the way. 

Anzu-chan was with him, too. “This is your chance to show off how dependable you are ♪.” Well, in the end, I'm the one who went and did it anyway. 

Adonis: Ah — Hakaze-senpai and Anzu. … the three of you came together?

We haven’t seen anyone from fine aside from this small child. Do you know where the other members are? 

Tori: Don’t call me ‘small child’. The name’s Himemiya Tori. 

And, uhm… Prez and my slave went ahead to take care of any leftover formalities at the airport. They’re supposed to be heading over here by boat. 

I don’t know where or what Long Hair’s doing. He’s usually pretty punctual, but I guess he still hasn’t shown?

I wonder what’s up. Think he’s dead?  

Rei: By ‘Long Hair’, do you mean Hibiki-kun? I’m fairly sure he’s unkillable… 

Wataru: Amazing! I am, as always, honored by your kind words! That’s right  — I am but a miserable clown whose death will never be allowed by those who desire me… ☆

Tori: Geh, there he is. 

Wataru: All right, all right, good mooorning! What fine weather we’re having! It’s the perfect day to travel!

How my heart sways and swells with expectations for the incident-filled journey we’re about to have. I believe you’re all well aware, but here I am… your very own Hibiki Wataru. ✰

Tori: Annoying… how can you be so energetic, Long Hair? 

You’re way late! If I was the only one here from fine I would’ve felt like crying. I was scared to death while I was surrounded by these guys. 

Kaoru: Don’t worry; there’s nothing to be scared of. ♪ Onii-san here will protect you.

… uh, actually. Are you a boy? 

Tori: Of course? I’m the most lovely boy in the whole world… ✰

Kaoru: Aww, man. Nevermind, then… I wasted my hospitality. 

Tori: Huh? Huh? Why’d he start walking away with such a deadpan look? Did I say something weird? Ughhh, I don’t get these people! 

Why’d Prez say he wanted to go on a trip with them again… ?

Wataru: Who knows? Why not ask the man himself? Speak of the angel and let there be light. Our Majesty approaches, the “Emperor” himself~. ♪

Eichi: Fufu. Such an outrageous introduction. You make me blush.  

Yuzuru: Thank you for waiting, everyone. I’m terribly sorry for our late arrival, but the current's influence made things difficult.

Koga: Ohh — it’s a huge ass boat! Hyahah! So we’re ridin’ that to the tropical island… ☆

Adonis: You really like boats, Oogami… 

If I remember correctly, the plan we were given for the trip beforehand said we’d take a boat on a certain island to an airport. Are we going to set out from there?

Eichi: Yes. Relocating everyone this way might be tedious, but there’s no other route to our destination… 

I apologize for the shaky ride, but I’d like for you to take the boat to our airport.

Koga: He oh so casually says somethin’ like “our airport”. Keh. You freakin’ bourgeois asshole.

Whatever, though. We’re on this trip for free so I’ve got nothin’ to lose. So how ‘bout we have one hell of a time then, eh, fine? 

Adonis: Is that really the way to behave?

It would be awful if we offended our hosts and they deserted us on some foreign island. You should watch how you act.

Eichi: I don’t want to put you through anything that horrible, though … anyway, they’re going to lower the gangway so everyone can come aboard. 

As quickly as possible, please. I want to set sail while the waves are still calm.

Wataru: Understood, Eichi! Were the gangway not even there, I’d be able to walk on water for at least fifteen meters… ☆

Rei: Surely you’re the only one in the whole wide world capable of such a thing, Hibiki-kun. 

Being that we’re also senior students, do you think you could calm yourself a little more? … it’s embarrassing. 

Wataru: Fufufu. The foolish bird defiles its own nest. Spare me the lecture!

It’s been a long time since I took a trip with friends, after all, so I’m far more excited than usual… ☆

I’m literally so pleased I might fly! Flap, flap… ♪

Tori: Huh? Why’re you floating in the air a little? Does that happen when you’re happy? What the? What kind of trick is that? 

Wataru: Fufufu! Providing you with a spoonful of entertainment, since traveling long distances tends to be boring.

I educated myself on a variety of ways to arrive at the meeting place faster than anyone else!

Tori: Ah! When you look closer you can see he’s hanging on a thread! Enough with the stunts. Just show up when we’re supposed to meet, okay?

Yuzuru: Fufu. I apologize for having to interrupt, but… the gangway is ready. Please begin boarding the ship, everyone.

Give me your hand, Anzu-san. It would be dreadful if you fell into the sea.

Wataru: Wonderfully thoughtful as always, Butler-san! Let us hold hands as we cross, Princess~. ♪

Tori: Ugh, don’t cling to me! You’re making it harder to walk!

Kaoru: Ahahah. fine’s more upbeat than I thought they’d be; totally different from their original impression on stage. There wasn’t a point to joining forces before, so maybe that’s why it all feels so brand new.

Rei: Indeed. Well, get to know them as best as you can. Though we clashed with them time and time again, they’re still comrades of ours from Yumenosaki Academy. 

While the stage is another matter entirely, for now we’re fortunate to have this time of peace and harmony.
