Chiaki Bond story episode 3

Momotalk

C: -Official notice-
C: [Weekly Pandemonium is on hiatus]!
C: We apologise for the inconvenience. Please look forward to next week!

It was a usual busy day...
Knock on the door, Chiaki bursts in

C: Goo~d morning Sensei~
C: Oh, you're working. Did I come at a bad time again?
S: All good. I was just about to take a break actually.
C: Is that so. Same here!
C: Hm? Oh, nothing big happened!
C: This is just a regular hiatus.
S: Regular... hiatus?
C: Yup!
C: Since [Weekly Pandemonium] is a weekly newspaper. There isn't really any time to take a break during work. Because of that, we get regular weeks off!
C: Slow and steady wins a race after all!
C: But I like doing my job. So I don't really wanna stop!
C: Because of that, I only take a break once every two months!
C: That said though, I still have some other stuff to do, so today's my only day off.
C: E-eh? You're looking green with envy over there...
C: Heh? You haven't even had a day off recently?
C: I-I see...
C: Then in that case, how you take a break too!
S: B-but my work!
C: Like I said, slow and steady wins a race. You need a refresher!
C: A good rest will bring your efficiency back to tip top shape!
S: I... can't really argue with that.
C: See?
C: Alright, break, START!
C: First off, give yourself a good stretch!
C: Next, Take a nap, read a book, or play a game!
C: Do stuff that you usually can't! Put some elbow grease into your hobbies instead!
C: Eh? You don't know what to do because you haven't had a break in so long?
S: What does Chiaki normally do on breaks?
C: Me?
C: Hm... What do I usually do I wonder...
S: How about we go out together?/I'd like to learn more about Chiaki.
C: Ah! Good Idea!
C: Going out with you is getting me giddy!
C: Maybe I can use this to gather as material for [Weekly Pandemonium]!
C: Alright, let's go!
S: Where should we go first!
C: From now on, let me show you how to enjoy a hobby!
C: As for what we're going to do... fufu!
C: You'll see as we go!

Library

C: Hello~ history research club? It's good to see you all!
History Research Club member A: Oh! Chiaki-chan!
History Research Club member B: What's up? You doing well?
C: Of course! Couldn't be better!
S: Chiaki's hobby... is history research?
C: How's the club activities been?
History Research Club member A: Well, we're doing alright I guess? Oh! We were reading that old book you gave us!
History Research Club member A: It looked like a fake though?
C: Really!? It really felt like some sort of hidden treasure though!
History Research Club member B: Haha! Don't sweat it!
History Research Club member B: Since you went through all this trouble, how about some tea?
C: Thank you! Make that two for Sensei as well!
History Research Club member A: No problem! You should head on in too Sensei!

Chiaki and mobs chat

S: Chiaki, are you a member of the history research club by any chance?
C: Yup. Or to be more specific, I'm just a frequent visitor.
History Research Club member A: She's not an official member, but she comes every once in a while.
C: Yep! I am a Pandemonium Society member after all!
C: I practically have a foot in this place already don't I?
S: It sure seems so..
C: Oh crap! The time!
C: I gotta rush! See ya!
History Research Club member A: Come back anytime~
C: Okay~!
S: You could have taken it a bit slower./It's a rare day off after all.
C: Hmm, I'd have liked to do that, but...
C: But history isn't my main hobby!
S: It isn't?
C: Alright, next stop!
Catchball club member A: Oh! Chiaki Chan!
C: Good morning~ I can see you're working hard today!
Catchball club member B: It's been a while! It's a little quiet without you here.
Catchball club member B: Wanna have a go?
C: Sure! With pleasure!
S: So your hobby was catchball?
C: Ahaha~ Well, I'm also just a visitor here! I'm not exactly good enough to be official.
Catchball club member A: Well, it's certainly more lively whenever you're around!
Catchball club member B: Yeah! It'd rock to have you around every day.
C: Ahaha~ Let's start!
C: Alright. Play ball!

Skips to the board game club member room

C: Ugh... this card sucks...
Board game club member: Fufufu. Chiaki's got some funny reactions. You kinda suck at this though.
C: No fair! I was on the edge of my seat!

Skip to gourmet tour club
Skip to thermal power research club
something blows up and everyone faints

C: Wow~! That brought us full circle!
C: That was a good refresher. That was a great weekend!
C: Oh, Sensei, you're looking a little haggard. Did I go too far?
S: Nah. All good. More importantly...
S: Just what are your actual hobbies?
C: I just showed you though?
C: 'You were showing me so many things, it felt like you forgot to show me what you were really interested in'?
C: Haha! Was that what you were thinking?
C: My hobby- is talking to other people!
C: Meeting people and talking about different things...
C: That was my priority. Going into different clubs was just the means.
S: Thinking about it, no matter which club.../Chiaki wasn't very active in them.
C: Hey, you don't need to put it that way! You're right though.
C: Now then, let's hear your feedback. It was your day off too.
C: So, how was it?
S: Great. Absolutely refreshing.
C: Ehehe, I knew it! Meeting other people really is fun isn't it?
C: Well, all good things have to end sometime.
C: I have to go back to office and write up the next issue of [Weekly Pandemonium]!
S: You're heading back so soon?/Weren't you resting?
C: Hm? I already rested a good deal though?
C: Chatting with friends and getting exercise, that's my relaxation!
S: I-impressive...
C: I guess so?
C: Now then, I'll be heading off!

Momotalk

C: Hey Sensei,
C: If there was any club that you particularly enjoyed,
C: Why not join me as a visitor!
S: Sure. I'll think about it.
C: Okay!
C: Call me any time!
