<school chimes>

<click>

Hikage: Hi everyone!
Hikage: Right now we're in the middle of costuming for The Extra Kobayashi-kun side story "Shakespeare Tonight"!

Students: <excitement>

Papers: Shakespeare Tonight

Hikage: In addition to the script and acting, I, Tadao Hikage, the Rose Theater's chairman, am reporting behind the scenes!

~~~~~~~~
Hikage: First, playing the part of William Shakespeare, Kengo Kobayashi--!!

Girl: Should we take up the sleeves about 5mm?

Hikage: Looks great on you-- looks...

Kengo: ..................

Hikage: .......is he angry, perhaps?
	 <heart beats>

Girl: He said he'd rather transfer to a different school than wear tights!

Narration: (laugh)

Girl: <sigh> He's being problematic!
	 I went back a hundred steps and let him get by with just frills.

Sign: Wardrobe director

Chihiro: Hmph.
	 Why's he being so extravagant!  That Kengo-kun!

Yamato: Yea.  We're an angel and a devil--

~~~~
Hikage: Hey!  You two, Yamato-kun and Chihiro-kun, have outfits easy on those in charge of  wardrobe--
	 Very simple--

Yamato: ?

Chihiro: Wasn't this cloth on the piano?
	 <sniff, sniff>

Students: Y-you're imagining it.  You're imagination!!
	 <flinch, flinch>

Hikage: ...Chihiro-kun?

Chihiro: .....
Chihiro: Yeah, the part of Shakespeare'd be better.
	 Right.
	 <turn>

Students: Wha-wha-what is it suddenly--!!?

Chihiro: But, however you look at it, I'd look better in frills.  Hey, can I try this outfit on?

Hikage thinks: Oh......oh no......!!
Hikage thinks: If Chihiro-kun says he's playing the main part, then THAT PERSON, the heroine...

Sign: 1 - A
	 Girls' Dressing Room

Fubuki: Ow ow-ow-ow.
	 <squeak, squeak, squeak>
	 Time out.  Time out.

~~~~~~~~
Fubuki: My chest's gonna be crushed--
	 <gasping scream>

Girl: Bear with it!  Fubuki-chan!

Fubuki: This isn't easy!
	 Furthermore, it can't be put on alone.

Girls: In this era the lines of that dress were the latet fashion--
	 Fubuki-chan, you're wonderful.

*:The bosom looks round from up top, flat from the side.

<slide>

Hikage: Chairman!  About the main part...

Girl: Stay out!!  Boy!!

<clunk, clunk, clunk>

Narration: Indeed

~~~~
Hikage: Argh, What do I do.  What do I do.
	 <throb, throb>
	 My... my stomach hurts...
	 It's the chairman.  With Chihiro Kobayashi as her co-lead she'll certainly...

Fubuki: The sadist!?  I'm quitting!!

Kengo: Hikage!  I read the script.

Hikage: Kengo-kun!
	 What is it?

Kengo: Give me fewer lines.

Hikage: <fainting>
Hikage: I've already gotten rid of a lot of them FOR YOU--!?

Kengo: There's a limit to my endurance!
	 My Lady!
	 My sweet!
	 Crimson in thy lips and in thy cheeks-
	 Just a poet and every one of his expressions smell!!

Narration: (laugh)

Hikage: I- I guess there's no helping it.  I'll re-polish the character...
	 <whimper, whimper>

Principal: Wait up.  Wait up.
Principal: About this underage drinking scene.
	 What's with this... "tavern"?

Hikage: <cringe>
	 That's water!!  Principal-sensei!!

~~~~~~~~
Chihiro: Hey, I'm Romeo.
	 <sigh>  I look good in anything I wear.

Yamato: Yea--  Chihiro-kun, it looks good on you--
	 <excited scream>

Hikage: <pound, pound>

Students: Let alone tights, looking good in even a skirt(?) is rather impressive!!
	 <excited screams>

Hikage thinks: Why...
	 Why won't everyone do like it's written in the script...?

Man: Hi.
	 Delivery.

Students: <excitement>

Yuri: Yes?

Students: <excitement>
	 This is for Kobayashi-kun--

Yamato: Huh?  For me?

Chihiro: Hikage-kun.  I read the script.
	 <giggle>

Hikage: <cringe>!!

~~~~
Chihiro: Isn't there a kiss scene between the 2 leads.  You should have said so sooner.
	 <chuckle>
	 You silly.

Hikage: Th-that's just pretend...
	 <gasping scream>

Narration: <-He now understands how Kobayashi-kun feels.  (laugh)

Students: --huh!?  It's from Morio--!!
	 <excited scream>

Box: Ehime
	 Mikan

Student: What, what is it!?  Try opening it!!

Chihiro: If you don't make me the lead, this play will head towards a horrifying conclusion...?

Label: Perfect for the part of a devil.

Hikage thinks: Why's this happening!?  Please
	 don't mess up the script.

~~~~~~~~
Students: Oh!!  Wow!!  Wings!!
	 <gasp>
	 <excited scream>
	 For the angel and devil!?  Try them on Kobayashi-kun!!

Hikage: <head spinning>

Student: Oh.

Yamato: <flap, flap>
	 <excited scream>
	 I can fly!!

Students: Impressive.  Impressive.

Chihiro: <gleam>
Chihiro: Yeah, I'll be the devil.
	 <chuckle>  Kobayashi-kun, wait--

Kengo: Hey.

Students: We give up.

Sign: <-A wig.

Narration: ...and so, continue to p126.
