Sakyo Furuichi - Dainty Contrarian Star R - Backstage: Let's Eat a Ton!
| Part 1 | |
 | |
| [Scene: Room 103] | |
| Sakyo | I'm coming in. |
| Itaru | Sakyo? What's wrong? |
| Sakyo | It's nothing too important, but... |
| [Fade to black] | |
| Itaru | I see. So you're going to be part of a photo shoot with a burlesque theme. |
| Sakyo | Yeah. So, I wanted to ask you about some things to help me prepare for my role. |
| Itaru | Got it. I'll do what I can. |
| Sakyo | Thanks. |
| Itaru | First things first, what kind of dancer are you playing? |
| Sakyo | ... A tsundere dancer. |
| Itaru | Huh, a tsundere? |
| Sakyo | Honestly, I don't know much about the tsundere trope, but I accepted the role, so I have no choice but to do it. |
| Sakyo | In order to represent my character through my poses and facial expressions, too, I have to learn about the tsundere trope properly. |
| Itaru | Nah, if that's the basis of your character, I think you can probably get away with acting like your usual self. |
| Sakyo | What...? |
| Itaru | More importantly, you should probably try training your body for it. Your outfit is most likely going to show a lot more skin than you expect. |
| Sakyo | ... That's true. Those outfits won't look good on a scrawny body. |
| Itaru | For the record, back when I took part in the burlesque shoot, my outfit had my entire midriff exposed. |
| Itaru | I worked really hard to build some muscle for it, but all that training and dietary restriction took a lot out of me... |
| Sakyo | Since you're so slender, it's probably hard for you to build muscle. |
| Itaru | Not like you're one to talk- |
| Sakyo | You wanna say that again? |
| Itaru | No, I didn't say anything, actually. |
 | |
| [Scene: Room 106] | |
| Sakyo | Based on what Chigasaki said, it'd be best to start with training my body. |
| Sakyo | (Speaking of which, I remember Takato saying once that it's good to keep a record of your training if you're starting something new.) |
| Sakyo | (First off, let me measure my waist circumference.) |
| Sakyo | ... |
| Sakyo | ... It's even smaller than the last time I measured it. |
| Sakyo | (I've been asking for smaller portions of rice with my meals lately, so that must be part of it. I should fix that if I'm going to be training...) |
 | |
| [Scene: Dining area] | |
| Sakyo | I smell curry... Is it your turn to cook dinner today, Director? |
| Izumi | Yup. The supermarket had a sale on chicken today, so I made a lot of chicken curry! |
| Sakyo | I see. In that case, I'd like a bigger serving of curry than usual. |
| Izumi | Got it. It's pretty unusual for you to ask for a bigger serving, though. |
| Izumi | I know! Have you finally come around to the joys of curry? |
| Sakyo | No, it's just because I want to build my body up for the photo shoot we talked about. I thought I should eat more if I want to build muscle. |
| Izumi | Oh... Is that all... |
| Sakyo | What are you looking so disappointed for? |
| Part 2 | |
 | |
| [Scene: Living room] | |
| Sakyo | Sigh... |
| Sakyo | (I feel way too full...) |
| Tasuku | Sakyo, are you okay? You look really uncomfortable... |
| Sakyo | Ah, Takato... I just ate too much for dinner. |
| Tasuku | You did? |
| Sakyo | Yeah. I measured my waist earlier, and it was smaller than I expected. |
| Sakyo | I wanted to train my body for our photo shoot, so I thought I should start eating more, but... |
| Tasuku | I see. In that case, instead of forcing yourself to eat more, you might be better off starting with training. |
| Sakyo | That so? |
| Tasuku | Yeah. Once you start working out, your appetite will increase, so it's only natural that you'll eat more after that. |
| Tasuku | If you're okay with it, I can come up with a workout routine that'd be good for you. |
| Sakyo | Thanks. Sorry for the trouble. |
| Tasuku | It's all good. |
 | |
| [Scene: Courtyard] | |
| Sakyo | Huff, huff... I think I'll stop here for today. |
| Sakyo | ... Hm? Hyodo? |
| Juza | Hey. You're training right now? |
| Sakyo | I just got to a good stopping point. Now I'm just gonna drink a protein shake and eat this, then I'm done. |
| Juza | Is that... a salt daifuku? |
| Sakyo | Yeah. Takato said that having a small amount of sugar along with your protein intake helps that protein be directed towards muscle growth more easily. |
| Juza | That so... I was plannin' on workin' out in a bit, so maybe I'll go buy somethin' before I do. |
| Sakyo | ... I feel obligated to say: don't overdo it with the sugar. |
 | |
| [Scene: Dining area] | |
| Omi | Here you go, Sakyo. A bigger serving than usual for dinner today. |
| Sakyo | Thanks. This looks delicious. You always manage to make things so good you wouldn't be able to tell they're made for a restricted diet. |
| Omi | Haha, thank you. |
| Izumi | You've been training so hard every day, I'm sure your body's in good shape by now. |
| Sakyo | No, actually... |
| Sakyo | I measured my waist circumference earlier, and it's even smaller now than before I started. |
| Izumi | No way! You actually got even thinner? Even though you've been eating so well every day...? |
| Sakyo | Yeah. I've been wondering what to do now. |
| Omi | You might just have the kind of body that doesn't gain muscle easily. |
| Izumi | J- jealous... |
| Sakyo | This is creating problems for me, though. |
| Omi | You've been able to build some muscle on your upper back, though. I think your outfit might make the contrast between that and your narrow waist look really good. |
| Sakyo | You think so? That could work out, then... |
