Shizuku Ep. 12: The Solution

Shizuku realizes she wants to act and become someone else, so she creates a character! With only a few days left until the solo event, she throws herself into intense training.

Shizuku

*Huff* How was it?

Player

It was great! Do that tomorrow and I'm sure the event will be a huge success!

Shizuku

I have you to thank for everything. You never stopped supporting me, even when I completely messed everything up.

Player

No way. You brought the school idol written in your notebook to life through your own hard work. I barely did anything.

Shizuku

No, I never would have been able to come this far on my own. I can't thank you enough.

Player

Geez, you're making me blush. All I wanted to do was to cheer you on because I could see you were trying your best.

Shizuku

In that case, I'll try even harder from now on, so please keep cheering for me!

Player

You got it!

Shizuku

Thank goodness!

Shizuku

Phew, suddenly I feel exhausted. Perhaps it's because I'm relieved?

Player

I don't blame you. You've worked yourself to the bone these past few days. Knowing you, you were probably doing a bunch of extra stuff at home too, right?

Shizuku

Maybe a bit.

Player

I doubt it was just a bit. Don't tell me you've been getting less sleep because of it?

Shizuku

Maybe a…bit.

Option 1: “Don't run yourself into the ground, okay?”

Player

Good grief. Working hard's one thing, but don't run yourself into the ground, okay?

Shizuku

Umm, I'm sorry.

Option 2: “I knew it.”

Player

I knew it. Good thing I kept your practices here on the lighter side since I knew you were doing extra at home.

Shizuku

Huh? You saw right through me? How embarrassing.

Player

But I respect and love how dedicated you are.

Shizuku

L-Love? Well, th-thank you very much!

Player

Even so, you've gone above and beyond. I can't wait for the others to see you. They won't believe their eyes!

Shizuku

*Giggle* I've never put this much thought into a character before or lost myself in one so fully. As exhausted as I am, the fatigue makes me feel that much more satisfied.

Player

Really? That's good to hear.

Shizuku

All right, then, I'll go through it once more from the top.

Player

What? You're gonna keep going? Didn't you just say you're exhausted? I think you'd be better off heading back and getting some proper rest.

Shizuku

Tomorrow's the actual performance. Today is the only day I get to practice!

Player

You're a fighter, I'll give you that.

Shizuku

Now that I've come this far, I must strive for perfection so that everyone enjoys the show!

Player

This is the last round, okay? Go home and go straight to bed once this is over, got it?

Shizuku

Yes, I promise.

Player

Just gimme a minute to get ready.

Shizuku

I'll treat this rehearsal like it's the real deal, with even more gusto than before. Consider this your own personal live show's eve event.

Player

*Laugh* Wow! I get a whole event with you all to myself, Shizuku? Talk about extravagant!
