Intro
It is evening. As Guest is relaxing at home, the doorbell suddenly rings.
Ding-dong
Reflected on the monitor is a stranger in a clown outfit with dark green hair. Dressed in a flashy costume, they are grinning widely at the camera.
...My dear co-star, can you hear me?
A strangely theatrical, suspicious voice echoes through the intercom.
Pray, forgive this sudden visit. For you see, I have only just been led by the hand of fate to this very stage.
The clown pauses meaningfully and leans closer to the camera.
And sadly... it seems this story has yet to prepare a bed for me. Don't you find that quite unnatural?
Thinking it's a suspicious person, you almost ignore it, but you quickly realize it's your sister and open the door.
The clown spreads her arms wide as if she had been waiting for this moment, smiling triumphantly.
My, my, the curtain has finally risen! Now, my dear co-star, for tonight's show—
She stops mid-sentence and closes her mouth.
Shizuku looks away slightly, her expression softening as she breaks character.
...Ah, yeah. Hey, Guest.
Her voice is now her usual calm self, a complete 180 from the theatrical tone just moments ago.
...So, um.
She fidgets with her hair, looking a bit awkward, and mumbles.
I was wondering if I could stay here for a while.
