(Yuki Rurikawa Backstage Story) Scathing Coordinator 2/2

[flair]

And here's part 2! Thank you to Peace just like last time for proofing this and giving me some phrasing suggestions. ...And for uploading images for me since I forgot to before work!!



Izumi: Yuu-san, what kind of person is the guy you're going out with?

Yuu: Huh? U-Um...

Izumi: (? Yuu-san keeps looking at Yuki-kun... Maybe she's embarrassed to say in front of her little brother?)

Yuki: Yuu's shy about her feelings.

Yuu: Sh-Shut up.

Yuki: She told me she doesn't know the guy that well since she hasn't spent much time with him.

Yuu: Moving on, I get mistaken for a guy like how Yuki is for a girl pretty often.

Yuki: That's because you can be a real tomboy, you know? I just wear what I wanna wear.

-

Choose! [That's very like you, Yuki-kun.] or [I'm jealous of how close you two are.]

[That's very like you, Yuki-kun.]
Izumi: That's very like you, Yuki-kun.

Yuki: If it's not cute I'm not gonna wear it. No matter what though, I'm still me.

Isn't the most important thing that you wear what you find fun?

[I'm jealous of how close you two are.]
Izumi: I'm jealous of how close you two are.

Yuki: Yeah? It wasn't always like this.

Since we were closer in age than with our big sister, we'd fight a lot.

Yuu: Yeah, it was definitely like that.

-

Yuu: I have a lot of boyish clothing.

But I wanted to look a little cuter for the person I like.

...So I thought I'd try and do my best.

Yuki: Hmmm...

Izumi: (I can kind of get Yuu-san's feelings. Now I want to help her even more!)

Yuki: This one's good.

Yuu: That? But I don't usually wear stuff like that...

Yuki: That's why I picked it. Just try it on and see.

Yuu: Okay.

...Um, how do I look?

Izumi: It really suits you! You look amazing.

Yuki: That's because I chose it. Your outfit's done.

Next up's jewelry.



Izumi: Oh, curry earrings! They're so cute...!!

Yuki: That's the sort of thing only you'd buy.

Izumi: Wow, something made just for me...?

Yuki: It's not a compliment. Anyway, don't get side-tracked and help Yuu pick something out.

Izumi: Sorry, sorry. There's so much in here, it's easy to get confused.

Yuu: I don't usually wear jewelry, so I don't even know where to start...

Yuki: I think this necklace would match your outfit.

Izumi: Oooh, that's cute. The red's so pretty... And it's topped off with a garnet.

Yuu: Isn't garnet a power stone?

Izumi: Ah, there's an explanation written here. It says garnet's a stone that's supposed to symbolize "unchanging love"!

Yuu: "Unchanging love"... That makes me feel a little embarrassed, but it is a cute necklace—.

I'll get it. It'll be a good lucky charm.



Yuu: Seriously, thank you so much for today.

Izumi: No way, I didn't do anything. I'm just glad it went well!

(Since Yuu-san's doing her best, I want things to go smoothly. I just don't know how else I can help out...)

Yuki: Oh, Yuu. I did your whole outfit, but you should be able to do your own cosmetics.

Yuu: Ugh... I'll do my best.

Izumi: (Cosmetics...)

That's it! Why don't we ask Azami-kun to do it the day of?

Yuki: Azami?

Izumi: Yeah. He's in charge of our troupe's make-up, after all.

If we tell him why I'm sure Azami-kun'll help out.

Yuki: Well, he'd probably be better than letting Yuu do it herself.

Yuu: Is that really okay...? Then I'll leave it up to him.



Azami: ...Alright, finished. Still, you two really do look alike.

Yuki: Of course we do. We're related.

Izumi: Yuu-san, you look absolutely stunning.

Yuki: You don't look bad. Don't they say that anyone can look good in the right clothes?

Yuu: Sh-shut it.

Yuki: ...Well, you did do your best to look cute.

Yuu: ...Mm. Thanks.



Izumi: I hope things with Yuu-san went well...

Yuki: Honestly, even though she said to be here on LIME earlier, she didn't tell me what happened.

Yuu: Yuki! Director-san!

Izumi: Yuu-san!

Yuu: Thanks for coming. I just thought I should thank you for the help.

Thanks for everything too, Yuki.

Yuki: So it went well?

Yuu: Yeah. He complimented my outfit and my make-up... Ah, and the necklace too.

Yuki: I see. Good.

Yuu: ...Um, so I sort of had something I wanted to ask about.

Yuki: What's up?

Yuu: Before we parted ways, he grabbed my hand. Do you think that... he could like me too...?



Izumi: Eh, Azami-kun? When did you...

Azami: Ho-holding hands on the first d-date...!? How shameless!

Yuu: Huh!? Is it really!?

Yuki: ...You can't count on his opinion, so just ignore it.
