For My Friends

Towa
I-I don't accept it...I won't accept it! I don't accept such a subjective evaluation!

Kaname
Then practice more seriously. If you put in real effort, you could become not just an additional warrior but even the lead.

Towa
Eh, I don't want to do something so troublesome. I'm fine being the additional warrior who joins midway and gets all the good parts.

Kaname
My goodness, how much are you underestimating additional warriors? That attitude of looking down on things is very Green-like.

Towa
Ugh.

Kaname
...That said. It's true that I'm grateful to you.

Towa
W-what's with the sudden change?

Kaname
Denki's strength is its concept. Sharing 'fun!'. We win if people enjoy the 'fun!' we create together.

Towa
Yeah, it seems like Akiba used to make good use of gimmicks. Now it's so worn out that there's nothing new about it.

Kaname
Wow, that's harsh...do people normally talk about their own troupe like that?

Towa
You should only turn away from reality in dreams. Isn't that what Machiko-sama would say?

Kaname
...Well, that's true. That's why we had a crisis. But we were able to overcome it because you were there.

Kaname
To be more precise. Because you performed in a way that suited Denki.

Towa
You get it then.

Kaname
If 'genius child actor Motosu Towa' had shown the serious acting she displayed during her Olympus days.

Towa
-We would have disintegrated and fallen apart.

Kaname
Right. Even as Euclid, you were conserving energy to match everyone else. Though everyone seems to think you gave it your all.

Towa
That's the right choice, isn't it? Energy conservation is justice. Sustainable Development Goals acting is my motto.

Kaname
Hmm, you know some difficult words. ...You're talking about SDGs, right?

Towa
Yeah. I learned it in social studies class.

Kaname
Social studies, not contemporary society...! Remembering our age gap hurts my heart...!

Towa
Being an adult must be tough.

Kaname
...That's right. That's why I want you to make up for what I lack.

Towa
...Huh?

Kaname
Right after you joined Denki, I honestly thought of you as just a crowd puller. You can attract audiences even with 30% effort. I thought energy saving acting was fine.

Kaname
But now, the pieces are starting to come together. The soil for sprouting has been prepared. This is Denki's chance to rise to the next level.

Kaname
If you continue to show glimpses of 'genius child actor Motosu Towa', you can surely pull everyone up.

Towa
Ugh...

Kaname
So I want you to show acting that surpasses Euclid, little by little is fine. Show everyone and lead them.

Towa
Th...

Towa
That's not going to happen! I left Olympus because I hated getting tired, so that would defeat the purpose!

Kaname
...Tch.

Towa
Did you just click your tongue!?

Iroha
What are you talking about that seems so fun?

Towa
If it looked fun to you, you should go to an eye doctor. Your eyes are definitely bad.

Iroha
Why am I suddenly being dissed!?

Iroha
But getting glasses for an image change would be nice too!

Kaname
As expected of Denki Red. So positive.

Iroha
Denki Red...?

Towa
Never mind. Do you need something?

Iroha
Ah, yes, that's right! I wanted to thank Towa-chan!

Iroha
I just watched the video of our stage that was recorded earlier. Towa-chan's Euclid was exactly Euclid!

Iroha
You expressed such a high level of reality that it came through even on screen, which made the stage really tight. Thank you so much!

Towa
Today was a whim. I won't do it again because it's tiring.

Towa
But make sure you don't forget your feelings of gratitude and respect. Hmph~

Kaname
(Ah.)

Iroha
Yes! I've had nothing but respect for you since joining Denki!

Towa
I-is that sooo?

Iroha
You give appropriate advice when I'm unsure about stage matters-

Iroha
Even when mistakes happen, Towa-chan rebuilds the stage with overwhelming charisma, truly an Euclid like existence for Karyuu!

Iroha
I look forward to your continued guidance and support!

Towa
Hmm...

Towa
Hmmmmmmmmmm!

Towa
We~ll? If you respect me that much, I guess it can't be helped. If it's only occasionally, I might keep an eye on you.

Iroha
Thank you very much!

Towa
Right away, about today's skit. That's still not good enough. It doesn't reach the first class level. Since there was no enemy character, you need to focus on expressions that stimulate the audience's imagination.

Iroha
I see, that's educational!

Towa
And because the time is short, you need movements that leave an impression-

Kaname
(...I'll leave the rest to the young ones. This meddler should take her leave.)

Kaname
Well, shall I go eat some pizza~? Ah~, I want to drink beer!
