Kuro: ……
(Oh no, I made eye contact with one of the kids. What should i do? I already disguised myself a little to try not to scare them.)
(Ah…the kid took one look at my face and turned to escape in a rush. I made a mistake. I'm still scary.)
(I came because Nito kept inviting me, saying “You have to come watch too, Kurochin!")
(I thought they'd need someone behind the scenes to help with the props or whatever, so I said yes.)
(Guess it's better if I try not to let the kids see me. I wouldn't be able to look Nito in the eye again if the puppet show were ruined because of me.)
(But is it seriously okay for me to be like this? I have to meet kids this age in my next scheduled show.)
(It'd be really hard to keep filming if they got spooked just from eye contact alone, wouldn't it…)

Souma:
Kiryu-dono!
You truly are early. I also could not bear the thought of being late, so I set off as early as can be, but still you have bested me.
Ooh, the children waved after having seen us. Children at this age truly are an innocent sort of adorable.
We were once this age as well. How nostalgic ♪

Shinobu: Ah, Kanzaki-dono~! Kiryu-dono~!
How wonderful~! Every performance I am overzealous, and wake up extremely early in the morning.
And so I was worrying if I would be the first to arrive today as well~

Souma: Good morning, Sengoku. You are as lively as the children over there.

Shinobu: Ahaha…it is all thanks to the both of you. If it were only me here, I would have clammed up as tightly as a shell.
It is not meeting time yet, so it is not strange that Chairman-dono and the rest have not arrived yet.
However Anzu-dono usually arrives to venues early, does she not? It is a bit surprising that I have not seen her today.

Souma: Anzu-dono is most likely busy with other things.
However she usually does not like to be late, so perhaps she is coming together with Nito-dono.
They were practicing until late last night. We left earlier because we had other things to attend to…hm?

Nazuna: Sorry, everyone! Haa, did I make you wait long~?

Shinobu:
Good morning, Chairman-dono~ ♪ I have only just arrived as well, and so had not waited long at all.

Nazuna: Is that so, everyone sure is amazing arriving early~
I rushed all the way here because I thought I was gonna be late, but in the end I checked the time and I wasn’t. It sure gave me a scare.
Hm? Anzu’s not here yet. That’s surprising~ Isn’t she usually earlier than everyone?
She’ll probably arrive if we wait for her a little longer. Then let’s confirm our schedule today while we wait.
Later we’ll go greet the principal, and perform in front of the kids gathered there. (1)
If we go with the previous plan, Kurochin is in charge of all the props.
But Kurochin didn’t just help us with the puppets, he also joined our rehearsals. So as long as he agrees, he can join the show too.
Even though it's only a tiny supporting role, doesn't Red Riding Hood still need a mom? This character is only a little important at the beginning of the story. I was going to play both the mom and the wolf, but…
Kurochin, do you want to try?

Kuro: Spare me. The kids will start crying if I get on there.
It happened just now too; the kids looked at me and ran off. I’m more fit for backstage.

Nazuna: No, we’ll be hidden behind a screen during the real performance, and the kids will be focused on the puppets, so it should be fine, right~
I think you'll probably do well since you have experience acting, Kurochin. But this shouldn't be too hard anyway.
Mm~…Right, and Anzu hasn’t come yet. The meeting time’s already passed. I think I’ll give her a call.

Kuro: Nito. Isn’t that your phone? I just heard a ringing sound.

Nazuna: Oh, it’s Anzu calling!
Hey, you~ Everyone’s already arrived, you know.
There’s still a bit of time left before the actual performance, but still. Didn’t we say we’d meet up earlier to do one more rehearsal~?
Mmm, sorry, I can’t hear you properly. It’s kind of noisy on your end, did something happen?
…Situation? Wait, wait. What did you get mixed up in? Are you hurt? Are you okay…ywou’re owkay, wight?!
What? Yew shaid I'm no'shpeaking cleawly an yew don't understan what I'm shaying~?

Kuro: Nito, give the phone here. Go calm down over there first.
Yo, it's me. I heard you got mixed up in some stuff, little miss? What's the situation now? Explain it to me.

(1) This isn’t strictly relevant, but did you know there isn’t a fixed word for the Head of A Kindergarten in English, so I just went with principal.
