Everyone dolled up! 2-1N

[After the roles were decided]

[Library]

Wak: Hinata, didn't you say we would go pick out clothes first? Why did you bring me to the library?

Hin: Wakaba-chan, I'm dying to make you try some outfits on, but...

Hin: But I thought we'd need to do some proper studying first so you'd be mentally prepared to become the emperor.

Wak: Studying to become the emperor. I didn't know there was a scientific field like that...

Hin: First of all, let's study the history of how Hinamatsuri came to be.

Wak: T-There's so many history books! And there are so many theories, every book has something different written in it.

Hin: Hee hee, that's right. There are many stories about Hina dolls from all over the country, from different time periods. It's such a deep topic.

Wak: Yeah. This is deep enough to be its own scientific field. Which Hinamatsuri exactly should I take as a reference?

Hin: All of them.

Wak: Don't be unreasonable! Standing, sitting, hanged up, flowing down...

Wak: Even if I had infinite bodies, I wouldn't be able to recreate all of those Hinamatsuri varieties.

Hin: Heehee, Wakaba-chan, you're so diligent.

Wak: Huh? So I don't need to?

Hin: Nope. I do want to see you hanged up and flowing down, though.

Hin: But regardless of the forms they take depending on location and time period, all Hina dolls have the same emotions put into them.

Hin: People's joy and wishes for girls to grow up healthy.

Hin: Symbols of happiness that should the joy and hopes of many people. That's what the emperor and empress dolls are.

Wak: I see. You're right, Hinata.

Wak: Now I understand that the emperor carries the most responsibility out of all the Hinamatsuri roles.

Wak: And since I took it upon myself to do it, I have to do it properly.

Hin: Heehee. And here comes the serious Wakaba-chan. But you don't have to get so worked up.

Wak: But...

Hin: A symbol of hope for everyone. The same duty you've already had all this time as a Hero.

Hin: You just have to be your usual self, Wakaba-chan.

Wak: I see. It all finally clicked. Thank you, Hinata. What's important is a tranquil mind.

Hin: Now that you're mentally prepared, let's rush into choosing your clothes!
