summer vacation - ( war and peace 5 )

[mandytl]

 

Location: Tropical Resort

< About thirty minutes later. >

Yuzuru: Please, help yourself to anything you like, everyone. ♪

Adonis: Thank you for the food.

Koga: Whoa. This is one gorgeous dining table, man. There ain’t that many portions, but each and every dish’s real elaborate, or like, lavish. I don’t get how I’m supposed to eat these.

Wataru: All you need do is mimic the etiquette of Eichi and the others, Puppy-kun. 

That’s what I do whenever I’m sharing a meal with my fine friends in fine. One man’s fault is another’s lesson, as it were. ♪

Koga: Who the hell’s Puppy-kun? All of you’re always so… I told ya I’m a proud lone wolf!

Whatever, though. I don’t have the energy to get pissed when I’m still this drowsy after wakin’ up.

Heheh. I’m gonna cram all I can so I can raise my blood sugar levels and go all-out durin’ lessons this afternoon. 

I was just sittin’ around chilling, but from here on we're gonna be absorbed in practice... ain't that right, Emperor-san? 

Eichi: I wish you’d call me Eichi-senpai. Fufu. It’s impolite to twitter during mealtime, but… 

Let me briefly explain our future plans for the children who can’t seem to wait.

For today, the first day of our tropical vacation spanning three nights and four days, we’ll split into our respective units and hold lessons.  

I don’t mind if you’d rather spend your time playing. 

But I’d like for each unit to spend their time freely as long as they obey their leader’s wishes.

We’ve gathered all the basic equipment. If there’s anything else you need, do tell Yuzuru. 

Yuzuru: Yes; please contact me if I can be of any help.

Kaoru: Oh, so we can pretty much use our remaining time however we want? 

Guess I’m gonna play around at the beach until sunset. Better now while I can still see underwater. ♪

Koga: Shut it, you. I said we’re havin’ lessons! The hell d’you think this training camp’s for?!

Kaoru: Eh~? But I’m completely in vacation mode! 

Telling me I can’t mess around in that beautiful ocean’s basically like telling me I can’t talk to any cute girls.

Eichi: Well, such matters will have to be discussed among your unit. 

A mere four days will pass in the blink of an eye, so utilize your time as much as possible.

In any case, tomorrow… the second day will call for additional lessons to be held. Throughout the morning you’ll rehearse with your unit much like today. 

In the afternoon; however, I’d like for fine and UNDEAD to hold a joint practice.

Especially since both units will be involved.

Not even attempting to intermingle after we went all this way would make for quite the lonesome story.

There’s nothing we can do if you absolutely refuse, of course. We'll simply have to settle with becoming wallflowers during this intimate affair if you refuse our invitation to dance.

Rei: Hmm… that'd be quite all right. It’s becoming clearer to me how this third day of ours is going to unfold. 

We’ll have to start early and synchronize the breathing of both our units during the second day where feasible. 

Eichi: You’re as quick as ever to catch on, Sakuma-kun. On the third day, both fine and UNDEAD will hold a joint concert on the main island just a way from here.

Apparently it’ll be crowded with people since they’re holding a yearly festival that day...

Well, we’ll be one of many performances providing entertainment.

We'll spend that morning practicing and rehearsing. The curtain will rise in the afternoon and fall in the dead of night.

I plan on scheduling us to perform the same show both in the afternoon and during the night for Sakuma-kun's sake, since the sunlight isn't too kind on him. That way it’s fair, right?   

Rei: I must thank you for your concern… is what I’d like to say, but it’s bothering me more than anything. 

This is too kind for someone of your ilk, Tenshouin-kun. You’re being far too thoughtful. 

Eichi: How mean of you to make me sound so cold-hearted… especially when the ones who planned this entire trip were Yuzuru and Anzu-chan. 

Even if I were acting out of malice, there’s little room for me to intervene. 

I suppose I’ve no choice but to tell you to sincerely interpret things as they are. 

Fufu. Anyhow, going back to the topic at hand, on the final day… on the fourth day we’ll return home.

We’ll be tired from the concert, so I think we should let loose and pass the rest of our time having fun in the ocean or at the spa.  

If you want to hold lessons instead that’s fine with me, naturally. That’s another way to exercise your freedom. After that we’ll board the same plane, make our way home… thus our full schedule will come to an end. 

In brief, I think that’s about all I wanted to cover. Were there any flaws in what I said, Yuzuru? 

Yuzuru: Not at all; it was a splendid explanation that provided just enough information.

More importantly, if there are any separate, unclarified issues you wish to inquire about, feel free to ask either Anzu-san or I…

Though before anything else, I'd like for everyone to finish off this meal.

Since ancient times, it was said, “an army marches on its stomach.”
