| Main Street | ||
Riddle  |
That light… What are those things falling down…? What is happening to this school?
No, wait, I already directed Cater assess the situation. I must hurry back to Heartslabyul. | |
| ||
| Heartslabyul Dorm | ||
Riddle |
Alright, I’ve arrived. The lights are all on in the building, and I can sense the presence of the dorm students.
At a quick glance, it seems that everything is in order. It does not seem like anything unusual has happened at the present time. | |
| Rustle, rustle | ||
Riddle |
Hm? Did that bush over there move?
Oh no, did one of the hedgehogs slip out!? If so, I’ll need to quickly bring it back to safety. | |
| Silence | ||
Riddle |
It’s not coming out. Hedgehogs are delicate animals, so perhaps it sensed a strange disturbance and is frightened.
I wonder if it will soothe it if I speak to it its language. Chu, chuchu… | |
| Rustle, rustle | ||
Riddle |
Good, it’s coming out of the bushes… | |
| Something tackles Riddle | ||
Riddle |
!!
Urgh!!! What just slammed into me…? Oh. | |
| Riddletsum appears | ||
Riddle |
…Is that a stuffed toy? Did someone throw this at me? | |
| Riddletsum bounces | ||
Riddle |
It-It just moved. It can’t be, is this a living creature…?
I have never seen anything like this before in any of the animal encyclopedias I’ve read. | |
| Riddletsum happily bounces | ||
Riddle |
It seems to just be harmlessly frolicking around without any hostile intentions, but… It would be hazardous to make any rash judgements only based on supposition.
There’s no telling what it may do. Rather than leave it on its own, it would be safer to capture it here. | |
| Riddle holds Riddletsum | ||
Riddle |
If I hold it with my arms like this… Ack, don’t struggle like that!
Urk, it’s stronger than it looks. Hey, calm down!! | |
| Riddletsum stops squirming | ||
Riddle |
It finally stopped moving. Heh, you obediently followed my orders. Good decision.
Oh, wait. No, it’s staring at something. It’s looking at… the roses? | |
| Riddletsum slips out | ||
Riddle |
Ack, it jumped out of my arms. | |
| Riddletsum bounces happily | ||
Riddle |
Urgh… It somehow looks like it’s quite pleased with itself… | |
| Riddletsum runs away | ||
Riddle |
Hey, wait!! Don’t you dare try to reach the dorm before me!
Urk, it’s so quick, even with those short legs, I can’t keep up!! | |

| Heartslabyul Dorm - Lounge | ||
Riddle  |
Cater, you were a great help yesterday. Thanks to you, I was able to relay the information to the other dorm students. | |
Cater  |
You’re welcome～♪ But hey, y'know, seeing you and the tsums side by side is super cute～!
Let me snag a pic to remember this by. Smiiiile～～! Cheeese ♪ | |
| Snap! | ||
Riddle |
Are you done? Seriously, Cater, you are acting like it’s just another normal day.
Ahem! These strange creatures will henceforth be known as “tsums”. That is all well and good. | |
Cater |
Riiight～? But hey, these tsums are pretty cute, so we should be able to have some fun taking care of them… Maaaybe. | |
| Catertsum bounces happily. | ||
Riddle |
You’re correct in that they are cute and charming, but it will require a certain level of responsibility to take care of living creatures.
If we do not know where it came from, then there will not be a manual on how to care for them either. We must take extra care. | |
Cater |
Yessir, Dorm Leader. | |
Riddle |
When I first found this one, it caused me quite a lot of pain with how much it jumped and ran around without purpose.
In the end, I wasn’t able to place it in a cage, so I kept watch over it back in my own room last night. | |
Trey  |
Both of you are looking pretty tired. I guess it was a good thing that I’ve prepared for tea time. | |
Deuce  |
Here’s Clover-senpai’s handmade lemon tart. | |
Cater |
Sweet ♪ I should totally take this chance take a picture of my tsum with the lemon tart in the background. | |
Ace  |
We got some hot tea for you guys too! | |
Riddle |
What a nice scent. It puts me at ease. | |
Trey |
It could be that because of this unusual event, you didn’t even realize how wound up you were.
Come on, just take a bit of a break here while you can. | |
Riddle |
You’re right… That may be it. I’ll have that cup of tea now. | |
Deuce |
But yeah, this sure was surprising.
I can’t believe that tsums appeared looking just like Diamond-senpai and Rosehearts-ryōchō. | |
Riddle |
What did you just say!? This creature… looks like me?
Now that you mention it, I can see some similarities between Cater and his tsum, starting with the diamond mark under its eye, but… | |
Ace |
Eh… Riddle-ryōchō, you didn’t notice at all? You’ve got the same-colored hair and the little crown, among other things. | |
Deuce |
Also… I can sense a strange aura coming from it. Like, it might be this small, but it’s super powerful, or something like that… | |
Riddle |
Powerful? | |
Trey |
Oh, yes. I agree that it does seem to be pretty dignified. | |
Riddle |
Really, now… | |
Ace |
If both the Dorm Leader and Cater-senpai are gonna be babysitting, then that’ll just increase the work we’re gonna have to do, huh…
I guess I just gotta eat a ton of this tasty tart and build up the energy while I can, then… | |
| Riddletsum tackles Ace | ||
Ace |
WAAAH!!! | |
| Riddletsum bounces happily | ||
Trey |
Ace!? What happened? Why did you suddenly start yelling? | |
Ace |
This thing… Riddle-ryōchō’s tsum just tackled me out of nowhere.
Maaan, that shocked me so much, I dropped my fork on the floor… | |
Deuce |
Do the tsums want to eat too? I can bring another slice over. | |
Cater |
Probably not～ Look, my little tsum’s been sitting near the tart the whole time, but don’t seem to be interested in eating it.
Besides, they don’t really have mouths, anyway, so I don’t think they eat or drink, right? | |
Deuce |
I see… That’s too bad, Clover-senpai’s tarts are the best. | |
Trey |
Haha, thanks. But, for them to not eat or drink… These creatures sure have a strange physiology. | |
Riddle  |
…Ace. You were just about to eat your tart, weren’t you? | |
Ace |
? Yeah, I was…? | |
Riddle |
The Queen of Hearts’ Rule 89. | |
Deuce |
Number 89 is, uh… I think it was… | |
Trey |
“You shall not eat a tart before the Queen has given permission.” | |
Riddle |
I started to drink the tea, but I had not touched the lemon tart at all. In other words… | |
Ace |
The tsum got mad at me because I tried to eat the tart before you!? | |
Deuce |
Are you saying… That it’s got the Rules of the Queen of Hearts memorized? Wow… | |
Cater |
It’s gotta be a coincidence, right? Cay-kun’s tsum didn’t react at all… | |
Trey |
It’s pretty hard to believe… But it’s a tsum that looks like Riddle, so I’m sure they have some characteristics in common. | |
Ace |
Then, please, Dorm Leader, hurry and start eating the tart already, would you…?
Eh, wait, what’s going on!? The Dorm Leader’s giving the tsum a huge smile… Even though he was super apprehensive of it earlier. | |
Riddle |
That was a good initiative. You show some promise, after all. | |
| Riddletsum jumps happily | ||
Ace |
Wow… Suddenly they’re both in such a good mood. I kinda got a bad feeling about this… | |
Trey |
Yeah. Seeing them side-by-side like this seems like a pleasant sight, but… | |
Cater |
Yeaaaah… I think Cay-kun’s gonna eat the tart later and head out with the tsum instead～ ♪ | |
| ||
| Cafeteria | ||
| Riddletsum tackles students | ||
| Heartslabyul Student A | Ack!? Something just hit me!! | |
| Heartslabyul Student B | It’s that “tsum” that the Dorm Leader told us about this morning! But, why did it tackle us…? | |
| ??? | That is because you both were breaking the rules. | |
| Heartslabyul Student A/B | Urk, Riddle-ryōchō!? | |
Riddle |
I believe the drink you are to consume after your meals is decided by the Queen of Hearts’ Rule 339.
You should not be drinking that soda you have there. Do I need to say anymore? | |
| Heartslabyul Student A/B | Yessir, Dorm Leader! We will prepare lemon tea with two sugar cubes right away. | |
Riddle |
Good. Alright, tsum. Let us continue to make our rounds.
“You must leave the table within 15 minutes of finishing lunch.” …We cannot have any of our dorm mates violating Rule 271, after all. | |
| Riddletsum jumps in agreement | ||
Ace  |
Riddle-ryōchō’s in a crazy good mood, ever since he got someone who really understands him… Let’s just eat fast and head back to class. | |
Deuce  |
…Yeah, let’s do that. | |
| ||
| Heartslabyul Dorm – Rose Maze | ||
| Riddletsum points to the direction | ||
Riddle |
Oh, you found another person in violation of the rules? Good job, tsum.
The one over there is… | |
| Riddletsum runs off | ||
Riddle |
Ah, tsum! Don’t head off on your own! | |
| Heartslabyul Student C | I think I just heard the Dorm Leader’s voice just now… Wait, what’s that!? | |
Riddle |
Tsum, stop there…! | |
| Heartslabyul Student C | What’s this thing!? Stop, don’t come any closer! Aaaaaahhhhh!!! | |
| Riddletsum tackles student | ||
Riddle |
What are you doing!? | |
| Heartslabyul Student C | N-No, you got it wrong, Dorm Leader! The feed spilled ‘cause this guy rammed into me suddenly…! | |
Riddle |
Yes, I saw what happened.
Understand, tsum. While it’s true that his outfit does not adhere to the Rules of the Queen of Hearts… | |
| Riddletsum looks away | ||
Riddle |
Hey, are you listening to me!? | |
Trey  |
Riddle! Is everything alright? We heard a loud noise and a scream, so we thought we’d come and check up on you just in case… | |
Riddle |
Ah, Trey. And Ace and Deuce also, I see… You all came at the perfect time.
I find its adherence to the Rules of the Queen of Hearts to be spectacular, but there is an issue with the way it does things. | |
Ace |
Uhhh, Riddle-ryōchō? The tsum ran away… | |
Riddle |
What!!!??? While I was speaking…!
Trey, Ace, Deuce! Capture that tsum immediately…! | |
| Trey/Ace/Deuce | Yessir, Dorm Leader!! | |
|
| ||
| Heartslabyul Dorm - Lounge | ||
| After capturing the Riddletsum on Main Street― | ||
Riddle |
Sigh… That was quite troublesome having to chase after that tsum. Yuu, Grim. Apologies for keeping you waiting. | |
| Choice 1: Good work today. | Choice 2: We’ve been looking forward to this tea party! | |
Grim  |
Let’s get this tea party started! | |
Riddle |
Right now, Trey is in the midst of preparing tea and pastries. It shouldn’t be much longer… | |
| Riddletsum hops off Riddle's shoulder | ||
Riddle |
Tsum, where do you think you’re going, hopping off my shoulder like that!? …Ah! | |
| Riddletsum tackles Grim | ||
Grim |
Funyaaaaa――!? | |
Riddle |
Why did you tackle Grim!? He is not of this dorm and therefore there is no need to reprimand him for violating one of the Rules…
Ah! Is it possible… Were you thinking of Rule 23: “Cats should not be brought to festivities”? | |
| Riddletsum perks up with dignity | ||
Riddle |
A festival would be a much livelier and grander event. This private tea party would not be considered one. In addition, Grim is not a cat, he is a magical beast. He is also a student at this school. There is no issue if he attends this tea party. | |
Grim |
Yeah, yeah! I’m not a cat! | |
Riddle |
See? I am always correct. | |
| Riddletsum looks away | ||
Riddle |
Are you telling me you don’t agree with my interpretation of the rule? You little…! | |
Ace |
Looks like the Dorm Leader and that tsum are fighting again… | |
Cater |
It really does seem like it… They’re so alike and get along just like siblings～～ | |
