Dreams
You have a dream the night after an inspection. There are 20 in all.
Julious, Oscar, and Olivie - corridor
Julious: ......is for that reason. Until the examination is ended, nothing is to be overlooked, I want to be prepared.
Oscar: Yes, understood.
Julious: By the way, changing the subject....
(Olivie comes in unnoticed.)
Olivie: What are those two talking about?
"What do you think about the Queen Candidates?"
"Each girl has her charm, but in my opinion, they are still flower buds, don't you think?"
"Fool! Who is asking you about feminine charms? I asked which would be appropriate as Queen."
"Hahaha. Julious-sama, you'll never get a girl with that strictness."
Just kidding. Boring.
(Olivie leaves.)
Julious: .......
Oscar: .......
Julious: You are not as indiscreet as that I believe.
Oscar: Of course!
Clavis, Julious, and Randy - corridor
Clavis: .......
Julious: Are you listening, Clavis?
Clavis: I have ears, I can hear....
Julious: You do not seem to be listening. I am saying you should change your attitude, but just saying is useless.
Clavis: Exactly what is it that you dislike.... My very existence...?
Julious: Why must you be that way? What I want to say is...!
(Randy comes in.)
Randy: Hello. Julious-sama, Clavis-sama.
Clavis: .......
Julious: .......
(Clavis leaves.)
Randy: Um, Julious-sama....
Julious: I thought this examination is a little different, but he is the same as ever.
(Julious leaves.)
Randy: I came at a bad time....
Randy and Oscar - corridor
Randy: Oscar-sama, Her Majesty is a great person, isn't she.
Oscar: Naturally. Since she carries the fate of the cosmos on her shoulders.
Randy: The two Queen Candidates will become great people, won't they.
Oscar: That's right.
Randy: That's really touching!
Oscar: I see. If that's what you're trying to say, that may be.
Randy: I'm seething with an intense fighting spirit. For both of them, I'll also try my best! I'll do it!
(Randy leaves.)
Oscar: Trying is fine, but don't get hurt for being too enthusiastic.
Lumiale and Clavis - star room
Lumiale: Clavis-sama, so you came here.
Clavis: Lumiale?..., I was looking at the stars.
Lumiale: It is a beautiful starry sky, isn't it. It would be good if people's hearts were also this beautiful....
Clavis: ...Is something grieving you?
Lumiale: Various things....
Clavis: The Queen Candidates?
Lumiale: .......
Clavis: If it is they, there is nothing to worry about.
Lumiale: Do you suppose so? I..., the two fighting for the Queen's throne, I fear they may grow to hate each other. Those girls, mutually improving, enhancing, might even become good friends....
Clavis: If possible, it would be good if they do as you say.
Lumiale: ...It would.
Clavis: But is has nothing to do with me....
Lumiale and Marcel - garden
Lumiale: Good day, Marcel.
Marcel: Oh, hello, Lumiale-sama.
Lumiale: You seem cheerful. Did something good happen?
Marcel: Please listen, Lumiale-sama. I had a dream last night. The dream was that I sent a lot of power for the two Queen Candidates.
Lumiale: Marcel, it seems that you are trying your best even in the dream.
Marcel: I did that and on the continent a lot of pretty flowers bloomed, it looked as if it were a carpet of flowers, and I was very happy.
Lumiale: If it were to come true, no doubt it would be a beautiful sight.
Marcel: So I thought. For the sake of the two Queen Candidates, I'll also try my very hardest.
Lumiale: If they heard that, I think they would be very pleased.
Marcel: Really. Then I would be even happier.
Lumiale, Luva, and Zephel - corridor
Lumiale: Good day, Luva-sama.
Luva: Good day, Lumiale.
Lumiale: Where are you going?
Luva: Since it is a nice day, a short walk. You?
Lumiale: For me, since it is tea time....
(Zephel runs in.)
Zephel: You sound like old men, don't use such dull greetings!
(Zephel runs out.)
Luva: Ah, what a nice breeze.
Lumiale: Luva-sama, just now....
Luva: Yes?
Lumiale: No, never mind. How would you like to join me for tea?
Luva: That would be nice, since your brewed tea is delicious.
(Luva and Lumiale leave. Zephel comes back.)
Zephel: Stupid..., so stupid, Luva....
Oscar - star room
Oscar: Ever more alternations of the Queen...? For some reason, I have deep feelings. From the time I became a Guardian I have been a servant of Her Present Majesty and I could not express these feelings in words. Perhaps, I wonder if everyone else has similar thoughts.... Heh..., what's the matter? I am Fiery Oscar, but today I'm being awfully solemn, yes? I will merely do everything I can. Whichever of the two Queen Candidates becomes Queen, I will exert my power for the sake of Her Majesty. At the risk of my life.
Oscar and Lumiale - corridor
Oscar: What's the matter? Mr. Guardian of Water.
Lumiale: Oh, Oscar, good day.
Oscar: Thinking in a place like this. You look worried about the examination?
Lumiale: It doesn't worry you?
Oscar: So that's it after all. That's very like you. Oh well, in my opinion, you are too full of needless anxiety, but for the sad faced Guardian of Water, it's a rather lovely appearance.
Lumiale: Oscar, that's irresponsible talk, I'm envious. If I could deal with worry like you, I would be lucky.
Oscar: Why, since I'm an easygoing guy, I don't mind anything.
Lumiale: A gentle strong-man, are you? Just what I would expect from the Guardian of Fire.
Oscar: I'm pleased. You seem to know me well.
Lumiale: Fufu.
Oscar: Heh.
Marcel and Randy - garden
Marcel: Hey, Randy. How come you're always in such of high spirits?
Randy: That's because I'm dedicated to always being in high spirits.
Marcel: How come even though there is something unpleasant, the next day it's entirely forgotten?
Randy: Ahaha, because I don't like to take things too seriously.
Marcel: Hmm, well then Randy, nothing bothers you?
Randy: That's not true. There are lots of things that bother me. But that's when you have to have high spirits. A smile has a strange power. If you're always cheerful with a smile, troubles become small. That's the truth.
Marcel: Wow, it's like magic. You're amazing, Randy.
Randy: Haha, really?
Marcel and Zephel - garden
Marcel: Hey, Zephel. How come you have such a sharp tongue?
Zephel: Don't bother me, I was born with it.
Marcel: Everyone is worried about you, how come you immediately say "don't bother me"?
Zephel: Because, you're bothering me!
Marcel: Zephel, how come you aren't obedient?
Zephel: Lemme alone!
Marcel: Zephel, do you want me to leave you alone?
Zephel: Huh...? Oh, that's it, that's it. How come everyone has to come bother me. I said leave me alone, really.
Marcel: But, Zephel, you're not really a loner.
Zephel: Idiot! What are you saying!
(Zephel leaves.)
Marcel: Wait, Zephel. Hey, let's play.
Zephel: Argh, enough! I said you're bothering me!
Zephel, Randy, and Marcel - star room
Zephel: I'm bored. The Queen and the Guardians, they all just talk big. There isn't a single person like me.
(Randy comes in unnoticed.)
Zephel: I miss before I became a Guardian.
Randy: (Zephel...)
Zephel: Someday for sure I'll quit being a Guardian and sneak out of the Sanctuary!
Randy: Why... why are you like that?
Zephel: What, you, that was sudden. Oh, you surprised me.
Randy: Zephel, why can't you have a way of thinking other than turning your back?
Zephel: Don't bother me, which way I turn is my own business!
Randy: I won't do that. Don't you understand just how much trouble you're putting everyone
through?
Zephel: What!
(Marcel comes in.)
Marcel: Stop, stop! How come the two of you only fight?
Randy: Marcel....
Zephel: Tch....
(Zephel leaves.)
Marcel: Become friends, Randy. Please!
Randy: Alright.... Why has it ended up this way?
Zephel, Olivie, and Clavis - corridor
Zephel: Heh, I'm sick and tired of the Examination, are you being serious?
Olivie: Hmm? But, since the two Queen Candidates came, hasn't every day become more enjoyable?
Zephel: Well, a little. Until now, it's been so boring.
Olivie: Discerning, this kid! It doesn't mean you're thoroughly stubborn.
Zephel: Wha...! What's that supposed to mean!
(Clavis passes through.)
Zephel: .......
Olivie: .......
Zephel: Gloomy...
Olivie: Really, gloomy.
Zephel: I see him and I think my life is a little better.
Olivie: If you say that, you'll end up like Clavis too.
Zephel: What's that supposed to mean!
Zephel, Luva, and Julious - corridor
(Zephel runs in.)
Zephel: I said you're bothering me.
Luva: Please wait, Zephel.
(Luva comes in chasing Zephel.)
Zephel: Persistant!
(Zephel runs out.)
Luva: He got away.
(Julious comes in.)
Julious: As usual, you are getting your hands burned.
Luva: Yes, but if there isn't a period of rebelliousness, he can't become a proper adult it is said.
Julious: While that may be, neither is it good to spoil a child. I think it would be better if you were more strict.
Luva: Naturally, when I ought to, I speak strictly.
(Luva runs after Zephel.)
Luva: Zephel, please wait. You should hear the conversation just now.
Julious: But it does not appear likely at all. It is a shame.
Olivie and Oscar - garden
Olivie: Hi, Oscar. What are you doing here? Perhaps, you're looking for a date spot?
Oscar: I suppose this place would suit pretty girls. ...Too bad I can't bring one.
Olivie: ...Is that all you ever think about?
Oscar: No, to tell you the truth, I was thinking about this Examination. How far can those girls get... and such.
Olivie: Kyahahaha, that's enough. Even though it's unlike me, I won't tell anyone. Really, on your next date, did you think to use such conceited lines?
Oscar: What do you think about me...?
Olivie: The roaring flames of passion burn in your heart, maybe you're the Guardian of Torrid Heat.
(Olivie leaves.)
Oscar: Heh, Guardian of Torrid Heat?..., that bird-of-paradise, don't tell me.
Olivie, Marcel, and Luva - corridor
Olivie: Kyahaha, was it too difficult for a child?
Marcel: Olivie-sama! Please don't treat me like a child!
Olivie: Yes, yes. Later. Bunny rabbit.
(Olivie leaves. Luva comes in.)
Luva: What's the matter, Marcel?
Marcel: Luva-sama, Olivie-sama is mean. He treats me as if I were a child....
Luva: Ah, but isn't it alright, since you are still a child.
Marcel: Luva-sama even you...
Luva: Let me see, that isn't it. A child should be childlike, I think it's splendid. Marcel, do you want to become a child that is said to be "like an old man"?
Marcel: That's..., a little unpleasant.
Luva: Is it? I think it is important to be satisfied with one's own age. Because after you become an adult, and you want to return to the time you were a child, you can't anymore.
Marcel: Oh..., you're right, Luva-sama.
Luva and Clavis - corridor
Luva: Clavis, Clavis!
Clavis: What is it...?
Luva: Huf, huf (panting)..., um, how would you like to join me for tea?
Clavis: Heh..., you are about the only one who takes notice of me.
Luva: That's not true. There are lots of people who care about you. The Queen Candidates....
Clavis: The Queen Candidates.... They seem to be trying their best.
Luva: Yes, they really are doing their utmost effort, I see it and I want to help them.
Clavis: Those girls are full of the joy of life....
Luva: Clavis.... I think those girls have brought a new power we don't have.
Clavis: A new power.... That may be what I have hoped for.
Luva: That is why it's something to look forward to. From now on the world, and we, will be changed somehow.
Clavis: ...Perhaps change will visit me also.
Luva: Yes, certainly, Clavis.
Luva and Olivie - garden
Luva: Ah, what a nice day, it feels good.
Olivie: Oh, why if it isn't Luva. What are you doing?
Luva: Ah, Olivie. I was basking in the sun. It's so nice and warm, I was falling asleep.
Olivie: Come now, it's kind of nice, going at your own pace.
Luva: Oh, really? I think it isn't possible. With various things as they are, between being pulled this way and that, and worrying...
Olivie: Like that, it's better never to show it at all. If I were you, I'd calm down.
Luva: Ah, you don't let it show either, but you're a very attentive person.
Olivie: Luva, you don't understand. This is it, it's getting on my nerves.
Luva: If you'd like, won't you join me in basking?
Olivie: I have to decline. It would be terrible if my beautiful skin were blemished. Later.
(Olivie leaves.)
Luva: In my opinion, it is Olivie who goes at his own pace.
Dia and Julious - star room
Dia: Julious, how are things going?
Julious: Ah, if you mean the examination, it is going well. I am getting impatient, but those two Queen Candidates are trying their best.
Dia: No..., I didn't mean the examination, I meant you yourself. Aren't you a little exhausted?
Julious: If you mean me, I am fine. It is not the occasion to be saying I am exhausted by this Queen Election.
Dia: You are the same as ever, Julious. Is it diligence, or obstinance?
Julious: What is that supposed to mean...?
Dia: Her Majesty is worried too. You are on the point of carrying the burden of just about everything by yourself.
Julious: .......
Dia: Why don't you try to rely on the people around you a little more? If you asked, there are a lot of people who would lend a hand.
Julious: Perhaps.... I will hasten to take your words to heart.
Dia and Clavis - star room
Dia: Oh, Clavis.
Clavis: I did not know there was someone already here....
Dia: Do you come here often?
Clavis: Entrusting your body to the light of the stars, and your heart calms.... That is a sarcasm. It means even the peace-bestowing Guardian of Dark can not be at peace....
Dia: Clavis....
Clavis: I was talking nonsense....
(Clavis leaves.)
Dia: The beautiful twinkling of stars is because they are in the dark. Perhaps, you might be one who knows the beauty of light more than anyone....
