Chapter 1: Panda's Proposal

Yae: A new play?

Panda: Yeah. Kudou-san said that it would be nice for Sirius to do plays that aren't just the classics~. I happened to hear her say that to Hiiragi-san.

Panda: About that, how about we all brainstorm a plan for this!?

Chisa: What do you mean?

Panda: Panda wants to demonstrate her leadership skills to show off to Sirius. "As expected of Panda!" "Panda is so cute!" "Her acting is great too!" "She even has a sense!"

Kathrina: Isn't that just your delusions speaking?

Kokona: K-Kathrina-chan!

Shizuka: Putting that aside......

Shizuka: By plan, are you talking about the new play?

Panda: Right, right. Panda really like performing, but she also has an interest in writing and performing in them as well~.

Panda: And so the plan is, the scriptwriter is Panda, the performer is Panda and the lead actor is Panda!

Kathrina: Isn't it kind of unfair to put yourself as the lead role?

Chisa: Surely that should just be an audition. ......I think I would like to play a bioroid role.

Panda: Oi, Sassu. I didn't even say anything about this being a science fiction story. Don't bring up a role like that out of nowhere.

Shizuka: Haaa....... So, what kind of play did you have in mind?

Panda: Let's see...... Panda wants to do something thats realistic, something that only we can do. Something thats familiar yet mysterious.

Kokona: Familiar, yet mysterious......?

Panda: Which means...... a story about Koko-chan and Shizu-chan's sense.

Shizuka: Our sense......?

Panda: Once upon a time, within an aspiring actor aiming to become a Daistar, a shining figure was born. A sense...... Another existence that lives inside the being known as Koko-chan.

Panda: Wouldn't it be interesting if Shizu-chan was a fairytale-like character in the play?

Yae: So what you're saying is to have a play that follows the journey of Kokona-san and Shizuka-san until now......

Yae: Right? It sounds a little bit in bad taste......

Kathrina: You think so? Stage actors, and even great historical figures have all been adapted to the stage/

Kathrina: That's what Mama.... Therese Griebel had to say on the topic.

Panda: Well, we're not going to make fun of them here, and it's probably a good idea to change the names too. I think the content will be changed enough to the point where Koko-chan wouldn't even recognise it.

Chisa: But it's still going to be a Kokona and Shizuka motif inspired script, right?

Panda: That's exactly right!

Panda: If the final script isn't satisfactory then Panda will reject it, but regardless, Panda wants to submit this to Hiiragi-san.

Panda: It's no small task..... but what do you say?

Chisa: I want to see this story of you two.

Kokona: I-I...... I also want to know more about Shizuka's existence.

Shizuka: Kokona......

Shizuka: If that's what Kokona wants, then I don't mind.

Panda: For real?

Shizuka: Yeah, but the question is whether this can make a good play or not......

Panda: Well, Panda will work hard on that front and see what happens.

Chisa: The boss wouldn't accept half-baked works anyways.

Shizuka: That's true......

Panda: ALright! Then its decided! Firstly, research! Panda would like to have a thorough interview with Shizu-chan~! Sassu!

Chisa: On it.

Shizuka: Eh?

Panda: Panda will now guide you to her room~. Koko-chan, you come along too~.

Kokona: S-Shizuka-chan! Hold on, Panda-chan, Sasuga-chan!

Kathrina: Is this going to be OK......

Yae: If you worried, why don't you go join them?

Kathrina: I don't wanna. Panda and Sasuga's room is full of scary things......
