"We asked one of Sumire-san's friends to help with the photoshoot!"

|

"So that's what you meant when you asked if you could take photos back then?"

|

"Yes! Sumire-san, you look so beautiful!"

|

"Coming from you, Hikari-san, that almost sounds like a backhanded compliment."

---

"Please state your name and occupation!"

|

"Sumire Hanamori. I'm still a high school student."

|

"May I ask your reason for moving in?"

|

"You may, but... we talk about this at every welcome party when someone new joins, so doesn't everyone already know? ...It's because it was close to the station and the department store."

|

"Thank you! So, what are your recent hobbies?"

|

"Running, baking... Just normal stuff. I'm a model student at school, you know."

"A shot from their room!"

|

"Hikari... how is it? Do I look... human in this?"

|

"Yes! You look very lovely and cute! But in Japan, it's not common to wear shoes inside the house."

|

"Oh, right. I'll be careful... next time. ...Want some coffee?"

|

"I'd love some!"

---

"Well then, with coffee in hand, excuse me... Alright, name and occupation, please!"

|

"Komori. Just... Komori. Um, I'm working as a... cafe staff?"

|

"Thank you! Next is the reason for moving in... but if you don't want to talk about it, we can skip!"

|

"It's okay... I live here because... it seemed like people would gather here?"

|

"Yes, thank you! Do you like interacting with people? I do too! Finally, what are your hobbies?"

|

"Observing humans, spacing out..."

|

"For reference, what was the result of observing me?"

|

"Behavior that could be taken as a lack of social distance toward kin or those sharing a nest. However, what exists there is not a defensive or selfish act of increasing companions based on biological instinct, but rather an altruistic spirit desiring harmony and synchronization with others, which can be seen as extremely optimistic. Due to a clear code of ethics, you are rarely shunned by humans, who are said to have extremely exclusive personalities. ...How's that?"

|

"Thank you! So that means I'm not hated! What a relief~"

"I borrowed a studio from my agency to take this!"

|

"Just because you're the photographer, you're the only one who got a proper set..."

|

"But, I think it's very Hikari-like."

|

"Hikari-san is beautiful, after all. The rumor that models look good in any photo is true."

|

"That's right, aru. As one of your sponsors, I put my heart into making your portions of the meals, aru."

|

"Aren't you worrying too much...?"

|

"May I use you as a model?"

|

"Iroha-san, please wait until later, de arimasu."

|

"I don't care, but you guys are talking way too much just for Hikari's turn."

---

"I guess I do get nervous talking about myself! Hikari Chosokabe! I'm a model, TV personality, and photographer! I'm like a three-legged crow with all these jobs."

|

"You don't look nervous at all... and I don't get your sense of humor. I always wonder, how do you make enough time to travel abroad and take photos?"

|

"That's a trade secret!"

|

"I see... So Hikari runs a company too."

|

"It's just a figure of speech, Komori-san. My hobby is taking photos! Before I knew it, it became my job!"

|

"Photos are great. I like taking pictures of scenery too, so I kind of understand."

|

"Thank you, Minori-san! Let's go on a trip abroad again sometime! As for my reason for moving in, I was interested in the condition that anyone could be accepted! Everyone is so nice, it's fun!"

"This is a photo from when I went on a trip with Minori-san!"

|

"Yes. I think it turned out well."

|

"Yes, but, um... I intended to take a secret shot of you walking happily, but before I knew it, you were looking right at the camera. And, somehow, your eyes..."

"Hehe."

---

"Moving on! Name and occupation, please!"

|

"Yes. Minori Kanata, and my occupation is a part-time worker. I have various experiences, so I don't stick to a specific job."

|

"I see... I see. A free lifestyle! I admire that! Next is the reason for moving in!"

|

"Yes. The reason is that even if I change jobs frequently, I felt I needed a permanent place to stay."

|

"I... see? Thank you. So, what are your hobbies?"

|

"Traveling, I suppose. I go abroad often, and though I say so myself, I'm confident in my eye for picking out souvenirs."

|

"That's true! The Gulab Jamun and Salsiccia you bought before were all things I'd love to eat again!"

---

"It's true those weren't words from the heart, but to have my doubts shown so clearly. Is it because of her purity?"

"We took this in front of Fengchi-san's restaurant! The coolness really stands out!"

|

"Of course, aru. I am the lovely and beautiful Lady Fengchi, aru."

|

"Right! But, you know, I don't think ending sentences with 'aru' is trendy these days, so why don't we drop it?"

|

"Eh?!"

---

"Ah, um... It's okay, Fengchi-san! It definitely shows your personality!"

|

"No, um, it's fine now... Thanks for the backup, okay? ...Ahem. I am Fengchi. Ye Fengchi, aru. I own a Chinese restaurant, aru. It's a high-end place that puts local diners to shame, aru. I have shops all over the world, aru."

|

"Yes, thank you for the name and occupation! Next is the reason for moving in! Could you tell us?"

|

"For end-of-life planning, aru. I thought a lively and noisy place like this wouldn't be boring, aru."

|

"Oh, come on~. Fengchi-san, you're still so young!"

|

"That's why I keep telling you I'm over 1400 years old, aru!"

|

"Oh, right! My apologies! Next is hobbies!"

|

"Are you listening!"

"...Are you listening?! Geez. My hobbies are moonbathing and yoga, aru."

|

"Yes, I heard you loud and clear! Rare polite speech! That's all the questions! Thank you very much!"

|

"Hikari-saaan!?"

"A shot of her just waking up in the morning!"

| "It was such a pain to get up then... Besides, there's no point in taking pictures of me..." |

"That's not true! Kanako-san, you're much prettier than me!"

| "...I don't need flattery— 'These are words! From the heart!' ...Thank you."

---

"Here, have this! It's orange juice."

| "Thanks. So, I guess it's name and occupation?" |

"Yes! If you're sleepy, I can interview someone else first..."

| "Yawn..."

"Ah, sorry, I'm okay now. I'm Kanako. Kanako Sendoji. Occupation? I'm a NEET. I dropped out of university, too."

|

"Yes, thank you! Next is the reason for moving in!"

|

"It was spacious and looked comfortable... that's all."

|

"Still sleepy? Then have this candy! It's from Fengchi-san! Next, tell us your hobbies!"

| "Thanks..."

"SO SPICY!!"

|

"Huh?! Was it that spicy?"

|

"Don't compare me to your tolerance, Hikari-san! Um, my hobbies are games and reading. Mostly novels. Oh, speaking of novels, the trick in the mystery novel I read the other day was—"

---

Apologies! Due to time constraints, we have to cut this short!

"The one on the left is a photo I took, but the one on the right was drawn by Iroha-san herself! It looks exactly like the real thing!"

|

"It's a struggle to make sure it doesn't accidentally start moving, haha..."

|

"That's true! With your ability, Iroha-san, could you make another version of yourself?"

---

"My name is Iroha Isshiki. I'm still a trainee, but I'm aiming to be an art teacher."

|

"My question was stolen!?"

|

"I've gotten used to the flow by now. The reason for moving in is that when I checked the floor plan, there was an atelier for some reason. It was an instant decision."

|

"Thank you for the explanation... Now, so it doesn't get stolen, your hobbies please!"

|

"My hobby, though it might be unexpected, is muscle training. If I want to reference muscle movement, I'm the closest model myself."

|

"Thank you! Finally, tell us about your ability, Iroha-san!"

|

"What happened to 'forgetting the profiles'...? This won't leave Ayaso, right? Actually, I can materialize things I draw. I don't want to spread it around, so please keep it a secret from the outside, okay?"

|

"It's okay! I'm used to that kind of thing because of my job!"

|

"It makes me nervous, but Hikari-san is surprisingly proper about these things."

"Am I last? I'm Megumi, and my occupation is—"

"Wait, Megumi-san! The questions come next! This photo is a shot from the Japanese-style room!"

|

"I'm sorry, de arimasu!"

---

"Once again, name and occupation, please!"

|

"Megumi Miroku. An aspiring novelist and part-time warrior, de arimasu. My hobby is buying and eating Japanese sweets, de arimasu."

|

"Thank you! Next is the reason for moving in!"

|

"Ah, I got the order wrong again... The reason is that I wanted to live in peace, de arimasu. It might seem surprising, but I'm quite a klutz and have an unlucky constitution, de arimasu. So I wanted to live peacefully in a suspicious place where people wouldn't come."

|

"But seven people had already moved in before you, Megumi-san!"

|

"That is true, de arimasu... I do nothing but cause trouble for everyone."

|

"No, no! I don't mind at all!"

|

"I'm glad to hear you say that, de arimasu."

---

"Thank you very much! With this, we conclude the video recording for the introductions and questions for the residents of Share House Ayaso! The rest is—"

"Huh? You're filming me too?"

|

"Yes! I wanted to add a part for Sanae-san, who always takes care of us, to the album!"

|

"...Well, fine. Is the wall of my house okay for the background?"

---

"So, you're gonna ask me questions too. I don't have anything unique like you guys, though. Sanae Michibachi. Occupation is manager of this share house. Well, it's not my main job. Hobbies are visiting restaurants occasionally. I can't go to Fengchi's place much because it's too expensive."

|

"Aaah?! The questions again?! And you said everything first!"

|

"Compared to your unique profiles, mine is too normal. It's boring to listen to, right?"

|

"That's not true! Sanae-san, you are very charming and unique too!"

|

"No, I'd really rather not be treated as one of your kind... Oh, Sumire-chan is an exception. Also, I appreciate the sentiment."

|

"A rare moment of sweetness! Thank you! Now, this really concludes the recording! Thank you very much!"

|

"I wasn't being sweet. Thanks for watching this far."
