> Seasons’ Climax
Hello, Producer. So SHADE OF SPADE is finally beginning its tour.
This will be the last of the four suits… We need to make this performance a success no matter what. For that reason, we cannot afford to fool around.

May I ask you a question? What do you think will be the most deciding factor to ensure things will go well this season? I’ve tried figuring it out myself, but I’m not sure whether my answer’s correct or not.
I’d like to hear your thoughts. Looking forward to hearing back from you.

====================

>> I want you to follow my instructions to a T.
I see… So you think of yourself as the perfect mastermind. That everything will go smoothly so long as we follow what you say. I understand.

However, there may be times when I refuse to listen to you. When that happens, do you intend to make me yield to you? To break my resolve no matter what?

I see, I see.
Then, I’d like to see you try.
Make me shatter and break me.
Strike me like a heartless arrow and break me.
Indeed, break me with your brilliance.
I hope you look forward to watching me break.

Have a good day.
Shiraishi Tsumugi.

====================

>> Just listen to your rebellious spirit!
Rebellious spirit? I’m not sure I really understand what you’re trying to say.
In fact, I don’t think that I’ll ever be able to understand you at all. You want me to follow with this thing you call rebellious spirit on my own? Well, let me give it a try.

Let’s see… First, I’ll try going against you.

Well, the other day, I saw you with your tie crooked and your bed hair was a mess. Your existence is literally the embodiment of rebellion against society. I’m so glad to have such a perfect example of a hooligan to look up to in you.
… So, what do you think? I tried to express my rebelliousness in my own way… Did that end up sounding like a compliment?
Anyways, please look forward to it. I’ll show you my rebellion just like you asked.

Have a good day.
Shiraishi Tsumugi.
