Kathrina
...I'm back.

Kathrina
(This time I won't fail. I'll say 'let's work together.' I won't force my own ideas...)

Kathrina
Alright, let's go.

Kathrina
Panda? It's me. ...Can I come in?

Panda
Come in. What's with the formal tone?

Kathrina
I wanted to... apologize properly. Sorry for saying terrible things earlier.

Panda
Not at all! Don't worry about it. What you said was completely reasonable.

Panda
If anything, I'm sorry for causing trouble all this time.

Kathrina
That's what I came to talk about.

Panda
...Talk?

Kathrina
You want to apologize to Sasuga, right? I want to hear honestly how you're feeling about all this right now.

Kathrina
I heard about the emotions you can't reconcile... But what do you yourself want to do?

Panda
...

Panda
I really, genuinely want to apologize.

Panda
Ahhhh, various things... my heart is all jumbled up... but I think the current me isn't good.

Panda
That Sassu is an important teammate... that hasn't changed. I want to... create a good stage together.

Kathrina
...Right. If you can think of her as a teammate, that's good.

Panda
...But there's also the possibility that Sassu has gotten fed up with my past behavior.

Panda
Whether she'll forgive me is another matter. ...Even so, I want to properly apologize for recent things.

Kathrina
Well, you have no choice but to ask for forgiveness. You want to make the stage better together with Sasuga, right?

Panda
Yes. I'm completely unsatisfied with the current quality of 'Peter Pan' too. Not just because of the theatre critic, but as an actor.

Panda
And if Chikage-chan is moved this time... I'd be incredibly happy, and it would feel amazing.

Kathrina
Right.

Kathrina
I'm completely unsatisfied with the current quality too. Not because of you and Sasuga, but as my own performance.

Kathrina
To make my acting better, I need your cooperation.

Panda
...

Kathrina
Let's do it, Panda. Let's perform the best 'Peter Pan' with all of us.

Kathrina
If we get Sasuga's cooperation too, it's not an impossible dream. What's the point if we don't aim for a performance we ourselves can be satisfied with?

Kathrina
Let's do the best theater. And make Nanase Chikage eat her words.

Panda
Wh-what's gotten into you all of a sudden? This isn't like you, Katorin...

Kathrina
...You know, I finally realized something just recently.

Kathrina
Theatre becomes a good stage through cooperation with teammates, so to make something good, we should work hand in hand.

Kathrina
...We're teammates for this stage, and you're not the only one who wants to make this performance good.

Kathrina
Let's work hard to make the stage successful.

Kathrina
...Together.

Panda
Together...

Panda
It's true, we've been incredibly scattered lately. Not just Sassu and me, but all of us in Sirius.

Panda
There's no way we could create a good stage like that. ...You're absolutely right, Katorin.

Panda
I might not be in a position to say this, but I want to work hard. From now on, with everyone, together.

Kathrina
Yes.

Panda
...Did you come to apologize specifically for this?

Kathrina
That's part of it, but not everything.

Panda
Meaning?

Kathrina
Sasuga wants to apologize to you.

Panda
Sassu wants to apologize to me? For what? Everything this time was just me taking my frustration out on her.

Kathrina
You two are usually so in sync, but today you're completely hopeless.

Panda
Ahaha... sorry. It might be because Sassu and I haven't been able to talk at all lately.

Panda
I was too scared to even think about what Sassu might be thinking right now...

Kathrina
...Then, want to talk to Sasuga?

Panda
With Sassu...

Panda
...

Panda
You're right. ...I think this can't continue either.

Kathrina
Then let's go talk to her together.
