(Merc Storia - Unit Story) Himari Tsurumi

A few years ago, Ensemble Girls! had a collab with Merc Storia - just like Ensemble Stars! did, lol - so I've started translating the unit stories from there! Many thanks to Rin from the Enstars Wiki for providing the majority of the raws for them, as well as [twitter.com profile] manbouwords for proofing and [twitter.com profile] yoroshikilled for voice checking! First up: Your STUDENT COUNCIL PRESIDENT, Himari!



Himari: FUHAHAHAHAHAA~AA ♪ Make way, make way! I'm coming through! Your STUDENT COUNCIL PRESIDENT has arriiiiived!

The healer Yuu's here, yeah? You had an appointment with someone named Himari?

Yuu: H~m... I wonder where it is?

Himari: Huh? Hey, what're you lying on the floor for? Don'tcha know you'll catch a cold if you nap there?

Yuu: How'd you get that out of this!? And I'm not taking a nap, I'm looking for something!

Himari: Ohhh, it must be important! Alriiight, your STUDENT COUNCIL PRESIDENT'LL lend a helping hand!

Yuu: Huh? Why would I ask a weirdo to help out...

Himari: Saying something so stand-offish isn't allowed, Bandana Boy!

Besides, the STUDENT COUNCIL PRESIDENT would never abandon someone in need!

Merc: Yuu, it doesn't look like we'll find it if it's just the two of us. I think we should let her help out.

Himari: Eek!? That spooked me! Where'd that chick in the bottle come from?

Merc: I’m sorry about that. My name’s Merc, and I'm definitely not a shady person!

Himari: Yeah, I agree! You're definitely not!

Huh, hold on. Didn't they say the healer I'm supposed to meet with has a girl in a bottle...?

Ohhh, you've gotta be the guy I wanted to join up with!

Yuu: I guess so... Wait, so then you're Himari?

Himari: Yep! STUDENT COUNCIL PRESIDENT, Himari! That's meeee☆

Anyway, this is suuuper good timing. At times like this, you gotta rely on the good ol' STUDENT COUNCIL PRESIDENT with no hesitation! After all, we'll be pals for life from now on!

Yuu: H-Hold on a sec! Did you just say pals for life?

Himari: Yeah? I sure did...

Wait! Could it be... You don't consider us pals...? D-Do I need to do an interview...?

I-I don't know if I can talk all proper, but I'll try! The STUDENT COUNCIL PRESIDENT'll bare it all!

Yuu: N-No, you don't have to bare anything!

Merc: Myufufu. You don't have to say anything to join up with Yuu, Miss Himari. He was just surprised.

Yuu: I don't think there's really any reason to rush this, so let’s take it slow, okay?

You'll hurt my feelings if you decide to call it quits later on!

Himari: Hmmmmm... Even if I thought about it, I don't think anything's gonna change though? Besides, I've got a solid reason for joining you!

Yuu: Reason...?

Himari: Fufufu, listen and be amazed! I decided to join you because... You seem like a good guy!

Yuu: S-So it was just gut feeling!?

Himari: This STUDENT COUNCIL PRESIDENT'S no good at thinking about stuff too deeply!

Anyway, I really did watch you and make my decision based on that, okay? You searching for a lost item is proof that you're a really earnest person! Anyone who's earnest can't be a bad person!

Merc: She's speaking so confidently! Is this the power of a STUDENT COUNCIL PRESIDENT...?

Himari: FUHAHAHAHAAAA ♪ That it is! The STUDENT COUNCIL PRESIDENT's words are always overflowing with self-confidence!

Yuu: (Man, what is a "stewing counsel pretzel dent" anyway...?)

Well, it's true that Himari's words sure have a lot of power behind them... I nearly agreed with her without thinking at all.

Fine then. If that's what you say, Himari, then I won't keep asking if it's really alright. I'm looking forward to working with you.

Himari: Yeah, it's an honor to join you!

I'm relying on you too, Merc! Oh, can I give you a nickname? How's "Mer-mer" sound?

Merc: Of course, call me whatever you’d like! I don't mind at all! I'm relying on you going forward too, Miss Himari!

Himari: Alright! Then I'll try to immediately meet your expectations! You were looking for something, right? Let this STUDENT COUNCIL PRESIDENT handle that!

I mean, since we're pals for life, don't hold back, okay?

Yuu: Ahh, sure, got it. I'm leaving it to you then, Stewing Counsel Pretzel Dent.
