Interactions with Rook Tsum II

Vil's Room (Day)

Pomefiore Dorm - Vil's Room

Vil
I see, so the Tsum lacks insight into the beautiful. And that's why it kept staring at my face, you say.
...Hehe! Doesn't it clearly show a firm handle of what constitutes beauty!

*Excited Rook Tsum*

Vil
It's also good to see how well-mannered it is by keeping its distance while it's busy admiring me.
There is certainly no lack of extreme fans in my experience whose actions have left me dumbfounded after all...
Rook
Why, such is the natural way of carrying oneself in the face of beautiful things.
Egotistical conduct, on the other hand, is not beautiful in the slightest you see.
Even for us, troubling you and tainting that visage of yours is not our true intent at all.

*Tsum reaction*

Vil
I'd like for you to keep that up moving forward then. Also, are you satisfied yet? I have Film Studies club activities to go to after this.
Rook
While we could look at Vil as much as we would like... We would not be so vulgar as to hold you back.
Vil
Sure. I'll get going then.
Rook
Take care on your way out, Vil.

Vil leaves

Rook
...Now then, Monsieur Tsum. What would you like to do now?

Outside Mr S's Mystery Shop (Evening)

Beside Mister S's Mystery Shop

Epel
Well then, I think it's time I made my way back to the dorm...

*Walking Tsum*

Epel
Hm? Wasn't that...the Rook lookalike Tsum? Wasn't it supposed to be touring the dorm with him...
O-Oooiiii...! You can't just get out on your...
Rook
Non. Your concern is unnecessary.
Epel

WHA-?! ROOK?!

Rook
Shh, be quiet. I am currently observing Monsieur Tsum's actions while pursuing it.
Epel
Are you tailing it? But why...
Rook
I sense a strong desire burning within its eyes, you see. Surely it must have a destination it is so keen to visit, I thought.
What could it, who has sought out beauty even within our dorm, seek for on campus? That is what I wish to verify.
Epel
A strong desire? In the Tsum's eyes...?

*Tsum eyes*

Epel
Uh~mmm... No matter how I look at them, those look just like ordinary Tsum eyes to me...
Rook
Come now, Epel, and join us. I'm sure we can bear witness to something fun... No, something beautiful!
Epel
Wait, I-I'm going too...?!

*Tsum disappearing*

Epel
Huh? The Tsum suddenly dove into the bushes... But it was walking solely on the footpath up till now.
Rook
Let's go in too. It probably has its reasons for doing so.
Epel
Does it really now... Well, we already ended up coming this far anyway, so I'll just tag along.

Woods Behind Campus (Night)

Woods Behind Campus

Epel
Ugghhh, the branches are poking me all over... And I'm exhausted from crawling all this way... Just how far is the Tsum thinking of going?

*Tsum stop*

Rook
Oh my, it has stopped. What actually lies in the Tsum's line of sight then...?
???

CUT!!

Rook
Oh...?

Main Street (Evening)

Main Street

Vil
Show me the clip. Yeah, this makes for a good shot. The acting direction is also spot on.
With this, rehearsal is over. We have to finish shooting this scene before sunset, so focus!
Film Studies Club Members
Okay!!

Epel
It's Vil and... Are they members of the Film Studies Club? So they were having a shoot at Main Street today, huh.

*Happy Tsum*

Rook
I see... So this is why Monsieur Tsum dove into the bushes.
I understand you, Monsieur Tsum. That feeling of wanting to observe the beautiful without becoming an intrusion yourself...!
Epel
What is that supposed to mean?
Rook
It must have wanted to take a look at how shooting a film is like for itself. After listening to Vil, that is.
However, it also does not wish to be an obstacle to him and the Film Studies Club... And that is why that refined heart of its elected to hide within the bushes.
Here, it would be visible to neither the camera nor the actors. It's the perfect spot for observing.
Well done finding this place, Monsieur Tsum. You truly are a lover of beauty just like I am!

*Happy Tsum*

Epel
A...haha... It really is a splitting image of Rook...
Rook
Ahh, Vil who is approaching the shoot with such seriousness, and the members who are all assisting him to the best of their ability... Oh, how beautiful they are!

*Happy Tsum*

Epel
Then, it's about time I...
Rook
That won't do, Epel, not at all! Why, your head was this close to popping out of the bush!
Epel
Eh...? Are you telling me, we have to stay in the bushes until they are done filming?!
Rook
Shh. Being loud will interrupt the shoot. This, too, is for the purpose of investigating beauty, dear Epel.
Epel
Urrk... I-I wanna go back...
Rook
Look now, for this is where the real thing begins. Let us join the Tsum and watch Vil and the rest of the Film Studies Club's activities to the end!

*Happy Tsum*
