Bloodlines and Competence
Director: Those gathered here are the candidates for the cast of Snow White. The cast will now be announced.
Everyone: Yes!
Xue: (Hikari, Finland, Germany. The rest are guys who have been working on their Sense recently.)
Xue: (And-)
Xue: (-Koyomi-san, who is the talk of the town.)
Xue: (The audition was a great success. I took another one as insurance just to be sure, but it was fine.)
Xue: (I'll take Snow White! Gingaza is a meritocracy, don't take it personally.)
Director: Ramona Wolf, Prince and Hunter. The setting is that both are the same person. Even if you play a male role, do it well.
Ramona: All right.
Hikari: Ramo’s the prince!? That’s so cool!
Xue: (I expected she wouldn’t get the Snow White role. Here we go.)
Director: Next, Claire Adams. Kashima Shiho. Franca Coppola. Quan Thorncombe. Amal Hakim-
Director: -Yonaguni Hikari.
Hikari: Yes!
Xue: (Hikari also dropped out. Six names have been called so far. In short, they’re playing the roles of the dwarves. I will not be called-)
Director: And Wang Xue. These are the seven names, the seven dwarfs!
Xue: Wha......!?
Xue: (W-What!? I'm a dwarf!?)
Xue: (Funny, I was so proud of myself! Then who’s playing Snow White?)
Xue: (Oh, so that's what this is about!)
Director: Next, Koyomi! You are......
Xue: (As I thought, as I thought! Family status and popularity are important after all!)
Xue: (I misread you, Gingaza! You went to such lengths to deny me the lead role!?)
Director: -Snow White's stepmother. The villain. The complete opposite of the previous Kaguyahime, but you can do it, can't you?
Koyomi: I won't let you down.
Xue: What!? Then who's Snow White!? If it's not me or Koyomi, then who's going to play her!?
Director: Quiet. Continuing with the presentation. Abigail Burns, Magic Mirror.
Director: And Lilja Kurtbay. Snow White.
Lilja: Okay, I've got it.
Xue: (W-What〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜!!!???)
Hikari: Look, look, I thought of the dance of the Seven Dwarfs!
Hikari: Put your hand on your hip and wiggle your butt. And Kime pose!
Xue: I am a dwarf.......I am a dwarf.......
Xue: (Damn, I completely forgot Finland existed!)
Xue: (She stood out every time, even though she was only a supporting character. It wasn’t impossible for her to be selected as the leading role!)
Lilja: I liked the mirror, but Snow White.......there aren't many scenes where you can show your bare skin, so I might have a hard time.
Hikari: But the director said-
Hikari: ......Ahem!
Hikari: "The mysterious moon messenger in Tale of the Bamboo Cutter was brilliant. This time, I'll play to your abilities. Don't be outdone."
Hikari: Solid ability! I'm jealous of the compliments.
Xue: Ability......
Xue: (Are you trying to say that I don't have the ability to play the leading role? I play any role, and to a certain extent, I have a reputation-!)
MC: Many other potential Dai Star candidates from abroad are also active.
MC: Many other-
Xue: Is that how Wang Xue is regarded by the public......?
Hikari: What's wrong, Xue?
Xue: It's nothing. ......If you have the ability, do it well.
Lilja: Well, Snow White is beautiful, so I will. Do your best with the dwarves.
Hikari: Yeah! The Seven Dwarfs will make you laugh out loud!
Hikari: Let's dance too, Xue! Come on, one-two!
Xue: Before that, I have a favour to ask. Hikari, pat me on the back to get me into the spirit of things.
Hikari: Eeh!? Sudden violence! Why!?
Xue: Just do it!
Hikari: O-okay.
Hikari: If you say that much…...here I go!
Xue: H-Hey, wait a minute! Don't go all out-
Xue: Ka~~~~~~~~h!
Hikari: I went all out! Are you okay!?
Xue: I can't breathe! It hurts too much! You really hit me, you power-hungry idiot!
Hikari: I did it because I was asked to do it, but you’re angry! Isn’t that unreasonable!?
Xue: No, it's fine! This is fine. You woke me up......
Xue: (I am still lacking in ability. I've put an end to spoiling and pampering.)
Xue: (If the world won't recognise me. I'll perfect the role and make them recognise me!)
