Tsukasa: Please excuse me!
Hello, my seniors of Knights! I deeply apologize for my brief absence! If you will have me, I, Tsukasa Suou, shall return to Knights activities from today onwards!
I ask for your guidance and—
Eep?!
Leo: ? What’s up, Suo~? Chill out with the weird noises~.... Feels like a while since we’ve seen each other, though. You doing alright?
Tsukasa: N-Naturally! I’ve been watching after my health, after all! Not to mention, the one who fell ill was not me but my father!
Leo: Huh…well, that’s good. But keep it down, okay? Anzu finally fell asleep.
Tsukasa: T-That is precisely the problem! What is Anzu-sa—Oneesama doing here?!
Leo: What’s wrong with that? We need her for today’s meeting, so I called her over. Though I do feel kinda bad because she’s been so busy.
On top of that, both of us are probably gonna be really busy during the Repayment Festival, so I’m giving her a White Day gift while we still have some free time.
Make sure you give her a proper gift, too~… She’s taken care of you as well, right?
Tsukasa: O-Of course! I haven’t forgotten about that at all! Not once!
However, aren’t White Day gifts usually flowers or sweets? I can’t imagine that such a…a lewd act could ever be considered a gift!
H-How shameless! I have truly lost my last shred of respect for you, Leader!
Leo: The heck are you getting all worked up for… I told you to keep it down, Suo~
I’m an idol too, you know, I’m not gonna be a perv about it. All I’m doing is giving Anzu a little ear cleaning, alright?
She’ll just work herself to death if you leave her alone, after all. I thought I’d let her rest a bit as a way to show my gratitude.
My little Ruka-tan gets stressed easily, too, so she sometimes has a hard time getting to sleep. But whenever I do this for her, she’s out like a light…♪
Tsukasa: T-That’s not fair! You’re always, always taking the things I want!
Leo: Hunh~? Aren’t you the one who’s always getting stuff, though?
Oh well, that’s just how things are! I’ll cwean your widdle ears after Anzu, pwease forgive me♪
Tsukasa: T-That’s not what I wanted! Is it not the duty of all of us in Knights to show our chivalry to Oneesama?!
Leo: Okay, then you can have your turn next… And be quiet already. I told you not to kick up a fuss, especially now that Anzu finally gets to play in her dreams and escape cruel reality for just a moment.
Is it part of your chivalry to get in her way? To act like some peace-disrupting barbarian?
Tsukasa: Ngh, nghh?! But-- but-- I can’t explain it, but I just can’t stand it! Am I being petty?!
Ritsu: Can youuuu shuuut uuup?
Tsukasa: Eek?! Y-You’re here too, Ritsu-senpai?! Haven’t I told you many times already that sleeping under the kotatsu isn’t good for you?!
Ritsu: Eh, it’s fine. I’m an immortal vampire, after all… yaaawn ♪
Mm, sleepy… Feels like it hasn’t been this lively in here for a while. I guess that’s all thanks to Su~chan. ♪
Leo: Haha, we all have our redeeming features, huh~ But well, we Knights are a group of warriors, so it’s not like we need a fanfare every time we appear, right?
Tsukasa: …?
Arashi: Sorry, got a little held up!
Y’know, it’s fine and dandy that Izumi-chan wants to work overseas, but can you believe he was gonna just abandon most of his work in Japan?!
There’s hell being raised left and right about whoever will take his place or how they’re gonna explain this to everyone involved!
Even today, I had to spend my whole afternoon visiting the agency with him, you know? We had to clean up all kinds of things!
Geez, you’re still awful at goodbyes, Izumi-chan!
You better not be making some silly assumption like no one’s gonna notice if you disappear or something, alright?!
Izumi: I said I’m sorry… But I seriously thought everyone hated me, you know?
Arashi: Even if they did, as if they wouldn’t notice if you just poofed like smoke!
There’s a process to saying goodbye, you know! Even if it’s not a celebration, you still have to go through the exact same steps, okay?!
It doesn’t matter if you’re just being civil or doing a social duty, show your face and properly say goodbye to everyone, at the very least!
Everyone was all ready to see you off, you know?! But no matter how long we all waited, you didn’t even bother to show up at the agency!!
If I hadn’t dragged you there myself, you probably would’ve just left on your journey and gone radio silent, right?!
I seriously can’t believe this! How heartless can you be?!
Izumi: Mnn… How was I supposed to know the agency would do some kind of farewell party? No one told me a thing, so I’m innocent, okay?
Arashi: Come on! You act like a senior, but where’s all your common sense?!
Go on as much as you want about how you’re such a professional-- You still act like a baby in all the weirdest ways!
You think it’s alright to be like that?! Don’t go overseas and embarrass all of Japan!
Izumi: Yeah, yeah, like I said it’s my bad… But you know, it’s not something I need to apologize for, though? I mean, thinking back on it, I don’t recall ever asking you to kiss my ass!
Arashi: Excuse me?! I’m the one who got you back in the agency in the first place! You screwing up reflects on my record, too!!
Ghh, you’re really testing my patience! I haven’t been this mad in ages! I’m gonna pinch your stupid cheeks!
Izumi: Ow, ow!! Cut it out! What’s got you so on edge lately… It’s sooo~ annoying!
Ritsu: (Fufu. I don’t really get what it’s all about, but it really feels like it’s been a while… It’s like our usual beloved Knights has come back, you know?)
(But still, there’s still a weird feeling, or some kinda friction. Like nothing’s getting resolved…)
(It’s concerning that Ousama’s staying out of it, just sitting over there in the corner with a scary expression on his face.)
(He even went out of his way to get Anzu, the producer, to come over here… Feels like he might even be plotting something?)
(But what? At least don’t drop a bomb at this point in time and complicate things even more, okay?)
