Third anniversary! Heartfelt gratitude 1-4N

[Dress rental shop]

Kir: O-Oooh! Whoa... W-What is this place even... A parallel world!?

Aka: Aah... Back here again...

Store manager: Welcome. We've been waiting for your visit this year.

Ren: Heh. Kept you waiting this year too, huh.

Kir: It's yer first time here!

Yuu: We'll leave the rest to you, then!

Aka: Eh? You're leaving?

Tak: Yep. Can't wait to see you at the event! Pick a lovely dress, okay?

Aka: Jeez...

Store manager: Allow me to excuse myself, then. Please enjoy our selection. Call me when you make a choice.

Kir: Ah, okay. Appreciate it. Well now... It's just us.

Ren: Yuuna, what's wrong? You've been acting strange all day.

Aka: I said my memories were partially gone, right? The parts that I've forgotten keep bothering me.

Kir: Aha. Like if you did something really nasty when you were their enemy, but the others won't say a thing about it?

Aka: The Hero Club is full of good people. So I do think they've genuinely forgiven me for everything I might've done.

Aka: But I understand how unfair I am, so I must've done something bad... Probably.

Ren: Probably? You're worrying this much over something uncertain? What a waste of time.

Aka: But...

Ren: You're doubting their feelings when they say it's okay. That, in itself, is insanely impolite and decidedly discorteous.

Aka: Eh?

Ren: Miroku will say this: if you want to atone, you shouldn't go against their wishes and do heavy labour.

Ren: Instead! You should respond to their desires and make yourself up until your spirit dries up!

Aka: R-Renchi...

Kir: "Dress" yourself up...

Aka: So dressing up will be my atonement...? Is that seriously, actually okay?

Ren: Yeah. What Miroku says is fact. That's what they probably wish for, that much is certain.

Kir: Probably!? But yeah, I think so too. Don't bother trying to deeply read into them. Just be obedient.

Kir: I know we have our duty, and all that bad habits that come with it. But don't get too used to suspecting others.

Aka: Right... Looks like I wasn't fully become a member of the Hero Club yet.

Ren: How sloppy of you, Yuuna. Miroku has blended in perfectly already. 100% a Hero.

Kir: What's that supposed to mean!?

Aka: Ehehe... Thanks, you two. I'll do my best with the Hero Club's celebration!

Ren: Heh. Now that's the rival Miroku knows. How about this dress?

Aka: Eh? Do you think it'll look good on me? I'll go try it on!

Kir: You switch gears fast! I can't keep up with you!

Yuu: Looks like Akamine-chan got in the mood. We were worried for nothing.

Tak: Yep. She's one of us Yuunas, after all! Positive thinking!

Yuu: Alright, let's go back and prepare!

Aka: Hmph. They're finally gone for real. That's a relief, they fell for it.

Ren: 3 years... Plenty of time for them to have built up trust and formed bonds with each.

Kir: Just one more step, and their relaxed smiles will turn into grimaces of frustration...

Aka: The estimations were off, so let's revise the plan. Failure isn't an option...
