Chapter 6: Shiromaru Mito's Past (Part 2)
Iroha: Tada! I went and bought the latest Karyu spinoff manga publication!
Mito: S-senju-san, You like this manga right? Mito will go and buy this after then.
Iroha: Oooh! It makes me glad to hear that you are going to read the manga. But I've already finished reading it, if you want, I can lend it to you~.
Mito: Is that OK?
Iroha: Of course! ......Ah, oh right, I have work today.
Iroha: I'll leave the manga here, see you tomorrow!
Mito: Alright, see you tomorrow......
Mito: (Senju-san is a really nice person.)
Mito: (To think that there would be someone that I would be used to speaking to outside of my grandparents. She really puts me at ease.)
Mito: (On top of that, she lends me her manga, tells me about different anime. They're all so interesting. Even outside of movies, I've gotten into so many more things now.)
Mito: Hehe.
Mito: School life is pretty fun.
Mito: (......Ah, it's Senju-san. Looks like shes talking to someone? She looks really outgoing......)
Kamira: Senju-san, during recess, you usually read manga, don't you? The one you were reading today, that one seemed pretty interesting.
Iroha: You mean this one? It's a fantasy shounen manga, the battles are amazing and the heroines are super cute!
Iroha: I'm going to cosplay as them next time, so I decided to re-read it~.
Kamira: You cosplay...!? That's amazing!
Iroha: Ehehe. Actually....
Iroha: Akiru-san, do you like anime and manga?
Kamira: Ah, I don't really really manga. It's just that I was curious about the cover of the one you were reading.
Iroha: Ah, this cover is really good isn't it! Of course the art is really good, but its also holographic and all shiny!
Mito: ......
Iroha: Ah, Shiromaru-san!
Mito: Shiromaru-san has also read this manga! She's my friend, and we get along really well!
Mito: ......!
Kamira: Umm, I don't think we've spoken before? I'm Akiru Kamira. Nice to meet you!
Mito: It's n-n-nice to meet you too......!
Kamira's friend: Kamira, What are you up to? Aren't you coming to dance practice?
Kamira: Oh crap! I forgot! Senju-san, Shiromaru-san, lets chat another time, k?
Mito: ......S-so you cosplay huh?
Iroha: Ehehe, thats true. it's super fun being able to become your favourite characters.
Mito: ......becoming your favourite character, huh. I can sort of understand that. Mito also feels the same when watching movies.
Iroha: Shiromaru-san too?
Mito: Yep. Like when I watch something cool or watching a cute heroine, I often think it would be nice to be like that......
Mito: ......like Maria Marion.
Iroha: Shiromaru-san!
Mito: Yes!?
Iroha: Would you like to cosplay with me? I'll even lend you makeup, wigs and the outfits!
Mito: Ehhhhhhh!?
Mito: ......I-I can't do that.
Mito: Mito is completely different to Senju-san. It wouldn't suit me.......
Iroha: Don't say that. You don't know until you've tried. You shouldn't deny it like that.
Iroha: Shiromaru-san, when you watch movies, you think about how you would like this and that! You should take that feeling and treasure it!
Mito: take that feeling and treasure it......
Iroha: Ah. I'm sorry! If you don't want to do it then you can refuse......!
Iroha: That's not good. Whenever I get all riled up about something, I often miss out on whats going on around me.
Mito: Don't worry about it. I might like to try it out. Maybe.
Mito: I-I want to change myself! Senju-san, if you don't mind, could you teach me more about cosplay!?
Iroha: Of course! Gladly!
Mito: That was fast.
Iroha: Gotta strike while the iron is hot. While we're at it, let's do your hair up like Maria Marion as well.
Iroha: Finish the buns on the pigtails...... Fix up the bangs......
Iroha: And for makeup, something natural so we don't break school regulations.
Iroha: And voila!
Mito: Is this...... Mito?
Iroha: Introducing the new Shiromaru Mito-chan!
Mito: Uhh, its kinda.... unlike myself. It's a little embarassing......
Iroha: See. It quite suits you, don't you think?
Iroha: Shiromaru-san was very cute today.
