Whoa…! There are lots of people here auditioning…!
|
Ace
Ace
|
There’s more than 50, huh.
|
Deuce
Deuce
|
I-I-I’m so nervous…! I-I think I already forgot the lyrics…!
|
Ace
Ace
|
You’re way too tense, man…
|
Cater
Cater
|
Oh~? It’s the DeuAce pair and the Ramshackle duo! Are you here to take the audition, too?
|
Grim
Grim
|
Cater! Are you here for that?
|
Cater
Cater
|
Yup, our school will be hosting the event this time~ Plus, Vil’s in it, too. Wouldn’t it be fun to snap a pic with a guy who has 5 million followers~?
|
Ace
Ace
|
Deuce isn’t acting like himself, but I guess it’s nice to see that the pressure’s not affecting you…
|
Cater
Cater
|
Eh~? I thought everyone was here for a similar purpose. Look over there.

(singing) La-la-la~ Singing’s so not my forte, but I hope that my dancing covers for it. I’m definitely taking that 5 million Madol prize money!
|
Grim
Grim
|
Wha—?! That guy’s so easy to read, yanno?
|
Lilia
Lilia
|
Greetings, Cater. I see you have come, too.
|
Grim, Ace & Deuce
|
WAHHHHHHH!!!!
|
Lilia
Lilia
|
(chuckles) What a pleasing reaction. Your dorm is as lively as ever.
|
Cater
Cater
|
Geez, Lilia-chan~ You know that scares people, right~?
|
Choice 1: You’re the one who delivered the holiday card to me…
|
Choice 2: Ah, does he always do that?
|
Lilia
Lilia
|
Very much so. The name is Lilia Vanrouge, a humble messenger.
|
Grim
Grim
|
Oh, yeah, Yuu. You did say you got some holiday card. Does that mean this guy sent it?
|
Lilia
Lilia
|
The initials written on the card were not mine, correct? Fufu, I am sure the sender is quite easy to recognize.
|
Cater
Cater
|
Are you here for the auditions, too, Lilia-chan?
|
Lilia
Lilia
|
Indeed. I am in the Light Music Club, and it is tradition for the members to participate. I tried inviting Malleus, but he did not want to be seen by humans so he refused. He is quite the shy child, after all.
|
Cater
Cater
|
Heh~ I feel like it’s a little bit more complicated than that, but okay… You’re kinda bold for inviting him out to audition in the first place~
|
Lilia
Lilia
|
I was thinking that it would be nice for him to do some school activities once in a while, too. Did you not invite your partner Trey?
|
Cater
Cater
|
I did, but I got rejected~ He said he was busy helping Riddle-kun with the Event Committee.
|
Lilia
Lilia
|
I see.
|
Cater
Cater
|
In any case, since we were both rejected by our besties, let’s take a pic to commemorate~
|
Lilia
Lilia
|
Very well. Come, freshmen. Let us take a picture.
|
Deuce
Deuce
|
Us, too…?
|
Grim
Grim
|
We weren’t rejected, yanno?
|
Cater
Cater
|
Never mind that~ Just go with the flow~ Yay~!
|
Lilia
Lilia
|
Yay~
|
(click~)

Ace
Ace
|
Diasomnia has the famous Malleus-senpai, so I imagined you’d all be a lot more formal, but… You’re very friendly, huh?
|
Cater
Cater
|
Aww~ I mean, you, me, and Riddle-kun are all different, right?
|
Deuce
Deuce
|
Now that you mention it, we are. Prefect Rosehearts is very scar—very strict, after all. So I wonder what part of us the Mirror of Darkness considers to be fitting for a certain dorm…
|
Lilia
Lilia
|
(chuckles) It is because we encounter people with a different point of view that we can learn something new every day. Behold. Ignihyde is known for having students who hate standing out, but— There are some from their dorm who are here at the auditions.
|
Cater
Cater
|
Oh, isn’t that Idia-kun’s younger brother? It’s rare for him to be by himself.
|
Ace
Ace
|
Younger brother… He looks like he’s in elementary school. Plus, what’s with the superhero lookin’ outfit…?!
|
Cater
Cater
|
Oh, yeah, you guys didn’t know. Ignihyde’s Prefect, Idia Shroud-kun, and his younger brother Ortho Shroud were accepted into the school at the same time.
|
Deuce & Ace
Deuce & Ace
|
WHAT!!??
|
Choice 1: Is that even possible?
|
Choice 2: They were both accepted…?
|
Cater
Cater
|
I don’t know all the details since I only met Idia-kun during my third year. They take the same classes, but the teachers don’t particularly mind.
|
Deuce
Deuce
|
No matter how close they are, I don’t think it’s normal for them to do everything together…
|
Grim
Grim
|
That guy Idia’s got a bad case of brother complex, huh…!
|
Ortho
Ortho
|
Don’t badmouth my big brother!
|
Grim
Grim

Wha—?!
