Third anniversary! Heartfelt gratitude 2-1N

Third anniversary! Heartfelt gratitude 2-1N

[Hero Club room]

Fuu: Our anniversary party ended with no troubles, so it's time to talk about the second event.

Aka: This time I'll help out with anything. Behind-the-scenes work, making tea - anything!

Ren: If I remember, the gist of the second event was about showing our gratitude to the townsfolk, right?

Its: Renge-san, are you alright? You're not expecting the townsfolk to tell us how grateful they are, are you?

Yum: Itsuki-san. Excuse me, but my ancestor is not one to do something of the sort.

Yum: She understands the Mirokus' family rule, our noblesse oblige, better than anyone else.

Uta: Huh? What is that?

Kar: Are you really asking that when it's in English?

Anz: Um... It's in French.

Kar: Eh...

Suz: I get you. Telling someone off and slipping up because of your lack of knowledge is embarrassing enough to set your face on fire...

Yum: It means that those who hold a high status have duties and obligations corresponding to it.

Tam: Huh. But how are our third anniversary and that uh... mob less something related to each other?

Yum: Eh? Uh, that is... Well... Huh?

Suz: I get you. The phenomenon of forgetting what you were trying to do while listening to other people talking.

Shi: Kagajou... You understand way too much.

SON: The Mirokus are always respected by the citizens, so paying the favour back is their natural duty.

SON: That's what Yumikichi wanted to say. I think, at least.

Yum: Fantastic, Sonoko-san! Precisely so! As such, you need not worry!

Ren: Yes. We are going to proceed through the streets in a spectacular palanquin, making this a parade for Divine Era's history books!

Chi: Looks like she wasn't listening to the part where we said there wouldn't be a parade...

Sek: Unfortunately, our schedules don't match with the orchestra's, which is why we're coming up with a different plan right now.

Gin: Ah, then how about doing our original parade where we'll play the instruments ourselves?

Sum: T-That's just impossible. There's simply not enough time to practice it.

Tou: And not just that. Think about the traffic laws, we'd need help from the city and the police...

Yuu: We'd have to guide the audience too, there's just no way we could manage by ourselves.

Meb: Couldn't we ask the Chamber of Commerce and the townfolk for help?

Wak: We're supposed to be showing our gratitude to the people, bothering them to have a parade would be missing the entire point.

Kir: True that. "We're gonna show you a parade, bam!" Acting like that would be condescending of us.

Ren: Heh, a bit of labour is nothing if they get to see Miroku on parade.

Anz: Where did all that noblesse oblige go...?

Nat: What if we march around the school grounds and ask them to come watch?

Son: A-Are we having a Bon dance festival?

Aya: Um... Can't we come pay them a gratitude visit? [1]

Meb: Wha-!? Aya-chan, where did you learn those words? Did all that time with Hinata make you go down the wrong road...?

Hin: What is that supposed to mean!?

Aya: Instead of inviting them to visit us, we could go visit the people who have helped us out ourselves.

Aya: The parade was fun, and I obviously thought the dance was wonderful too, but...

Aya: But I would still rather look people in the eyes, shake their hands and show my heartfelt gratitude.

Gin/Fuu/Kar: A-Angel...

Notes:

1 - "oreimairi" (gratitude visit) is a coloquialism that means to settle an old grudge (the original meaning of the term is to visit a shrine with gifts after what you prayed for came true)
