| Scarabia Dorm – Lounge | ||
| ―The day before the social exchange. | ||
Jamil  |
Of all people, I…
I can’t believe I had forgotten to prepare you another towel on top of my spare towel. I’m glad I realized now, before heading towards the gathering. | |
Kalim  |
Man, Jamil, you worry too much～ | |
Jamil |
That sort of complacency can invite unexpected troubles.
He who scoffs a single towel will in turn cry over that towel. | |
Kalim |
W-Wow, you’re really taking this seriously. Is it that important? | |
Jamil |
It’s that important. I’m heading to the Mystery Shop now. Let me know if there’s anything else you need. | |
Kalim |
Something I need…? You’ve already got so much ready for me, I don’t think I can think of anything else… | |
| ||
| Mister S’s Mystery Shop | ||
Jamil  |
That finishes up the towel preparations. Now, what else needs to be prepared…? | |
Deuce  |
Ah, Viper-senpai! Hello! | |
Jamil |
Hm? Oh, it’s you, Deuce… What’s going on, you seem pretty hyped up. | |
Deuce |
That’s cause it’s almost time for the social exchange! I’ve been so restless for a while now…
I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO TOMORROW, VIPER-SENPAI!! | |
Jamil |
Good grief… Don’t get too carried away. It’s great that you’re excited, but it won’t do if you wear yourself out before we even get to the event. | |
Deuce |
I’m alright! I’ve got a ton of stamina, so.
But hey, why’re you here at the Mystery Shop, Viper-senpai? Oh, are you still packing for the trip? | |
Jamil |
You know we’re leaving tomorrow, right? Of course I’ve already finished my packing some time ago. I should be asking you if you’re done. | |
Deuce |
Yessir, I am! | |
Jamil |
You sure? When you’re that adamant, I can’t help but get more suspicious…
I’m not going to want to deal with it if your lack of preparation causes me any troubles. | |
Deuce |
I’m definitely ready. I have a change of clothes, my phone charger, pen and paper… And I made sure to pack my toothbrush, too. | |
Jamil |
Is that it? What about a bag for your souvenirs, or a foldable umbrella? | |
Deuce |
Oh, I don’t have a foldable umbrella… Now that you mention it, I might need one.
If I had to appear at the event wearing something soaked from the rain, that’d look pretty bad as one of Night Raven College’s representatives. | |
Jamil |
That’s good. Also, you should get a few other things like scarves, cotton swabs, or paper soap, just in case. | |
Deuce |
Eh, do I really need something like that? I heard that it’s not really that cold enough to wear a scarf around this time in the City of Flowers.
And I don’t really see me needing to use any cotton swabs to clean any scuffs or dirt off… | |
Jamil |
No, it’s just soap that’s been sliced extremely thin, like paper. | |
Deuce |
Oh, then I don’t really need to bring it, I’ll just use the soap they have at wherever we’re staying! | |
Jamil |
Everything I mentioned are all pretty useful, and compact, right?
With a little ingenuity, you can handle any trouble thrown your way, so there’s not harm in bringing them. | |
Deuce |
Haha… You sure worry too much, if you’re thinking of possible troubles… | |
Jamil |
Sigh… Maybe you’re not as carefree as my Dorm Leader, but you’re still a little too optimistic. You can never be too careful, you know.
You should always try to make sure you don’t have any regrets once a problem rears its head. | |

| City of Flowers | ||
| ―Topsy Turvy Festival, free-roam time | ||
Jamil  |
Fascinating, there’s still a lot to see here at the festival venue. I’m glad to have this free time to myself.
I still have some time before the big show… Now, what should I do first? | |
| ??? | Sh-Shoot… It feels like I’m about to drop everything. | |
Jamil |
Hm? Oh that’s…
Deuce… What are you doing, trying to balance all those little boxes in your arms? | |
Deuce  |
Ah, Viper-senpai! …Ack, oops, that was close! Oh, these? I bought a ton of gifts for everyone back in my dorm. | |
Jamil |
Well, I see that, but… Why are you carrying them all by hand? You said you prepared a bag for them, right? | |
Deuce |
Uhhh… Yeah, I did bring one but, I got it caught on a corner of one of the buildings and it ripped… | |
Jamil |
Sigh… As a fellow representative of the same school, seeing you look so ungainly like that is pretty embarrassing. Here, I’ll let you borrow this. | |
Deuce |
This… is a scarf, though. What do I need it for? | |
Jamil |
Just put a few of your gifts in the middle of the scarf. | |
Deuce |
O-Okay. Here’s a box of cookies and caramels, and a jam jar. Oh, and the pencil I received from Ashengrotto-senpai!
And then I also have this shirt I bought for myself… But it looks like it won’t fit. I’ll hold on to this for now. | |
Jamil |
If this is all you have, it should all fit. Then, you take the four corners of the scarf and twist and tie them like this… | |
Deuce |
Oh, the tied-up ends of the scarf around the boxes became like a handle… Oh wow, it’s like a bag!! | |
Jamil |
If you carry it like this, you’ll have your hands free, and you shouldn’t have to worry about dropping anything. | |
Deuce |
Thank you very much… This is a huge life-saver! Please let me buy you some juice as thanks. | |
Jamil |
Don’t worry about it. I don’t need you to treat me for something like this. | |
Deuce |
No, no, it’d be my pleasure… Uh, huh? The zipper on my wallet’s stuck… Hrrrrnghh! | |
Jamil |
If you try to pull it by force, you’ll break it. I don’t want to watch all your coins go everywhere when that happens. Give it to me.
Guess I could use the cotton swabs and the paper soap here. I’ll rub them together and transfer the grease from the soap onto the cotton swab. | |
Deuce |
Woah, it opened… Thank you very much!
I can’t believe you could use that paper soap and cotton swabs like this. And I definitely didn’t think that a scarf could be used for a bag. | |
| ??? | Heeey, Jamil! Deuce! | |
Jamil |
Hm? That voice… | |
Grim  |
Look, I got 5 scoops of ice cream! Ain’t it cool!? | |
| trip | ||
Grim |
Ah! Oh no, it’s falling…! Fnyaaaaaaaa!! | |
| Ice cream goes flying | ||
Deuce |
Aaah! The ice cream is coming this way!!
Huh? My clothes aren’t dirty? | |
Grim |
My… My ice cream～ I didn’t even get to have a single bite… Nyaaaa～～!
Then… I just gotta go an eat [Yuu]’s, then! | |
Deuce |
Man, he’s not listening at all… Huh? Ack!
A drop of chocolate ice cream got on the shirt I was holding, and now there’s a brown stain… What should I do? | |
Jamil |
Let me see… Hm, something as small as this, I should be able to do something about it. | |
Deuce |
Really!? | |
Jamil |
Yeah. This time, I’ll use a scarf, the paper soap, the cotton swabs… Pretty much everything I brought.
I’ll place the scarf under the shirt, and lather up the stained part of the shirt with a wet paper soap. | |
Deuce |
Wow. You just used normal everyday objects to fix problem after problem…
You just keep saving my hide, Viper-senpai. I’ll treat you to not just one bottle of juice, but a whole case! | |
Jamil |
I’m not going to be able to drink that much juice at once, you know…
Don’t worry about it, really. In fact, I’d rather you just stay out of trouble when you’re around me. | |
Deuce |
As long as you’re here, Viper-senpai, no matter what happens, I bet we’ll all be able to enjoy both the festival and the masquerade. | |
Jamil |
Sure, but it’d be best if nothing troublesome actually happens. | |
