IV. PROJECT SCRIPT - COVETOUS YOU AND INSENSIBLE ME
[4]
Kai - You don’t have to come over every week, Kou. It costs too much, right?
Kou - I’ve got a part-time job, so it’s no problem! Besides, I’m worried about
you, Kai.
Kai - Me?
Kou - Ever since mom and dad passed away, you’re the only one who’s taken care
of us for the past 20 years! And now that everyone’s left home, shouldn’t you
be looking for a wife...?
Kai - That can’t be helped, you know. You’re staying at a college dorm.
[5]
Kou - Yeah, I’m so worried you’re gonna start getting senile. #Bonk#
Kai - Hurry up and get back to college.
Kou - [See ya next week]
Kai - [That brat]
Kai - What did he mean “senile"? I’m only 36!
Kai - I guess I’ll go to work now...
[6]
Guest - What’s the matter, Yamano-san? You look down.
Kai - Oh... Do I? It’s nothing, really.
Kai - It’s a foreigner...
[7]
Kai - What do I do!? I can hardly speak English... Wow, but he’s the real
thing. Blonde hair and blue eyes.
Lance - #Stare#
Kai - Uh... Please feel free to seat yourselves.
Lance - Konban wa! (trans. Good afternoon - spoken very stiffly)
[8]
Kai - Uh... What about your friends? Won’t you sit with...
Lance - That’s alright. May I order?
Kai - Oh! Yes, of course!
Lance - [Hmm... I’ll have this... And this...]
Kai - He’s even more beautiful up close. This is what people must call “beauty".
[It’s almost unworldly.]
Lance - Are you listening?
Kai - #Nod# Uh... Sorry. Could you repeat that?
[9]
Lance - You’re very cute.
Kai - [Huh?] W-w-w-what did you just... Aaah! #Splash#
Guys - Hmph!
There were hardly any good-lookin’ guys in there. Jeez!
Lance - I’ve found my next target.
Guys - What? You don’t mean that old man, do ya?
Ugh, it’s just sick, Lance! You could have any man or woman you wanted!!
Lance - But even those kind can be fun to play with, right?
[10]
Kai - Good evening, Lance-sama.
Lance - Hi.
Lance - So you remembered my name, eh?
Kai - Well, you come in everyday, so...
Lance - Would you if you didn’t like me?
Kai - Huh? N-no! I don’t not like you...
The boss is always glad when people take interest in the place.
Lance - What? You mean you’re not the manager??
[11]
Kai - I’m just a fill-in. I’m really just in charge of cooking.
Lance - [Oh?] It’s no wonder the food’s so excellent!
I live alone, so I tend to eat out a lot, but your food’s the best I’ve tasted.
Kai - Thank you very much. [I’m glad to hear that]
I like to practice here, for my own home cooking.
Lance - Then, what about we do dinner some time? I know all the great places
to go. I’ll show them to you.
Kai - [Huh?]
[12]
Kai - B-but I wouldn’t want to be a bother...
Lance - #Clink# You see, I really want to... Know more about you, as well.
Kai - O-oh... He’s very kind, but I don’t know anything about young kids
these days... But, he said together...
Center of Attention
Kai - [I knew this was a bad idea!]
Lance - [How do you like it?]
People - #whisper#
[13]
Kai - I feel sort of out of place here...
Lance - Are you concerned about the company?
Kai - Uh... N-no. Everything’s fine!
[How did he know I was feeling awkward? He’s a foreigner!]
This isn’t good... I’m so nervous, and it’s not the food! But I can’t let
him see how pathetic I’m being...
Lance - [Oops!] #Drop#
Kai - Oh, Lance-san... [What a nice guy.]
Lance - [Sorry!Sorry!]
Kai - Hold still.
[14]
Kai -I-I’m so sorry! I wasn’t thinking...!
Lance - [Haha] You really are cute, Yamano.
Kai - How the hell can you say that!? I’m almost 40, for crying out loud!!
But... It makes me feel a little better knowing that you’re here.
[15]
Kai - I’m pretty pathetic, you know. I’m now very good at going out with people.
I keep my distance... I’m nervous... I’m nothing but a big failure.
But you make me feel complete. I’m happy just seeing your smile. [And you listen
to my recipes.]
Lance - Are you saying that I’ve broken through your defenses?
Kai - Now that you mention it... I’d like you to come over to my house
sometime. I’ll make a great dinner, so I hope you eat it.
Everyday has been something to look forward to ever since I met him.
Lance - GET!!
[16]
Lance - Sorry, Ladies, but I have to get home early today.
Girls - What?? No fair!!
Guy - Yo yo, Lance! I see you’re not busy with the ladies today, so how ‘bout
you hang out with me today? Come oooooon! [They’re always on the hunt for you.]
Lance - Forget about it. I’ve got plans.
Guy - Are you for real!?
Lance - Dammit! It’s already past 4!
Guy - You don’t mean...
[17]
Guy - That old man from the bar???
Lance - Yup! I’m going over to his house for dinner.
Guy - So that must be what’s got you in sucha mood these days, huh?
Lance - Yeah? [Oh!]
Shit! I’m supposed to be there by 8! See you later! [Hurry, hurry.]
Guy - Huh!? Hey! Wait! [So far!]
Lance - I swear I’ll get him tonight, if it’s the last thing I do! [He’s waiting!]
Guy - 8 o’clock? You’re way early, man... [That idiot.]
[18]
Kai - What are you talking about?
Kyou - Really, Kai. Kou goes out of his way all the time, he’s worried about
you.
Kai - I don’t remember ever worrying about you guys that much. [Like the old
days.]
Kyou - Then what’s all this for, hm? Who are you going to eat with?
Your new wife will be my sister, so be sure to introduce us, okay?
Kai - I told you! It’s just a friend! You could come, too!
Kyou - What a joke! There’s no way you’d go through so much just for a “friend".
It’s obviously a lover!
Kai - L...LOVER!?
Kyou - Well, I’m off!
Kai - Y-you could at least stay for a cup of tea...!
Kyou - Thanks, but no thanks.
Kai - Kyou!!
[19]
Kai - A... lover?
[20]
Kai - Lance-san... What on Earth happened? The food’s already gone cold...
Something must’ve come up. I guess there’s... nothing I can do about that.
[21]
Kai - Lance-san hasn’t been to the bar since. I must’ve hurt his feelings
somehow. Even though I have plenty of customers, and it’s the same thing everyday...Not
being able to even see him... Makes it harder being alone somehow.
Kumi - Kai!
Kai - #shock# Oh, Kumi. What’s the matter? [What are you doing at the bar?]
Kymi - Don’t “what’s the matter" me!! Drop the act! We’ve been taking shifts
to come see you!
Kai - Sorry.
[22]
Kumi - You must be seriously ill. Should I go home? [Get me something to eat.]
Kai - You idiot! There’s nothing wrong with me!! [What are you talking about?!]
Kumi - [C’here.] You shouldn’t keep being so stubborn and pushing yourself like
this! You’ve been so caught up trying to please everyone else, you’ve forgotten
about taking care of yourself! It’s no wonder you can’t get a date, and you’re
still crawling through life as a high-school substitute bartender!
Kai - That’s none of your business. [Leave me alone.]
Kumi - Of course it is!
Kai - [But...] Thanks for worrying about me. [I’m sorry.]
Kumi - [Oh.]
[23]
Lance - #Click# So this is how it is...
%flashback%
Kai - I’m pretty pathetic, you know. I’m not very good at going out with people.
%end of flashback%
Lance - He’s not good at going out with people, and yet he’s got plenty that
want to get with him. #Slip# DAMMIT!
[24]
Lance - Yamano!
Kai - Lance-san!?
Lance - It’s been a while since I’ve come here. How’s work?
Kai - Oh! Uh... I’m off today, so... Let’s have dinner at my house. It looks
like he’s lost some weight...
[25]
Lance - Sorry, not tonight. I’ve already got plans with someone.
Kai - Oh. [I knew it.] Well... If you’ve got the time, would you like to stop
by for a bit? [It’s nothing big...]
Lance - Yes! I’d love to! And I’ve got some good wine with me, too.
Kai - Great! Thank goodness! He’s back to his old self again!
Right this way.
Lance - Of course.
[26]
Lance - Yamano?
Kai - Nn... [Heh. I can’t drink anymore...]
[27]
Kai - Ah! #Shiver# Nn! ...! L-Lance... What...?
Kai - Mph! #drip# Ah!... No... What are you...
Lance - You’ll throw up if you struggle.
[28]
Kai - Aah!
Lance - Now be a good boy and I’ll make this feel good for you.
Kai - !? My head’s spinning... Lance-san, what...
Lance - Isn’t it obvious? This. [You’re hard.]
Kai - Ah!... Let go...!
Lance - Since the first time I saw you... I’ve wanted to make you mine.
[29]
Kai - Why...?
Lance - Don’t look at me! #Slip# #tie# Your perception’s messed up again, right?...
[30]
#creak# #creak#
Lance - Nn!
Kai - I’m drunk... This must be a dream! [Haaa.]
Nn...
Aah!
#Stroke, stroke.#
Haa...
Lance - Yamano...
Kai - Because I can’t resist!
[31]
Kai - Because he’s doing this... Wha...
Lance - I told you it’d be alright, didn’t I? I’ll make sure it feels good.
Kai - Haa! Aah! Lance-sa... [Haa...]
[32]
Kai - Nn! Nn!
Lance - Sorry, Yamano. This might be a bit too soon, but...
Kai - ? Aah! Haa!
[33]
Lance - Yamano...
Kai - Lance-sa...
Lance - I’m right here.
Kai - Aah! Aah..Ah! Aah!
[35]
Kai - It... wasn’t a dream... I was drunk and he raped me... He’s gay...!
[But what do I do now?] And on top of that, I’m so ashamed that he had to see
me like this...
#shiver, shiver, shiver#
Lance - Please be mine... Yamano.
Kai - !? #Shock#
[36]
Kai - Huh? [Is that English?]
Lance - I love you.
Kai - Love...?
[37]
Lance - I don’t want to give you to anyone else!
Kai - L-let go of me! I... I don’t know what you’re saying!
Please... Leave here...
Lance - I’m sorry...
[38]
#slam, creak.#
Kai - I understood when he said “I love you". But, how do I deal with all
of this?
I shouldn’t trust him, what with the getting me drunk and all...
#Blush#
No, that’s not the problem...
Even though he did that... I can’t think badly of him. What’s wrong with
me...?
[39]
Kai - Could this be... Could this be... love?
Kei - Big brother Kai!! How are you?!?!?! Tee hee!
Kai - Kei... Not you, too.
[40]
Kei - It’s true!! What’s the matter with your face!? Have you been crying!?
Kai - [Ouch!] D-d-dummy! Knock it off! When do I ever cry...?
Kei - Oh, trying to act all tough again, huh? But I know you’re just lonely.
[Plus, I have a brother complex.]
Oh! Speaking of which... [Here’s a gift.] There was this really hot high-schooler
with blonde hair hanging around outside. Do you know him?
#Dash#
Kai - Lance-san?
[41]
Kai - If you don’t come out, I’ll call the police!
Lance - [Eep!]
Kai - Are you really a student?
Lance - A senior.
Kai - ... So you’re 18?
Lance - Yes.
Lance - HEY! WAIT WAIT WAIT!
Kai - [Oh my god. I can’t believe I did it with a minor.]
Lance - At least listen to what I have to say!!
Kai - Please... Just leave me alone...
[42]
Lance - I know you don’t think it’s very manly to be dumped like this, but...
I can understand Japanese very well, so please answer me truthfully.
I love you. Would you please go out with me?
[43]
Kai - But you... You only got closer to me so that you could... rape me. Wasn’t
that enough for you?
Lance - I said to answer truthfully! I got closer to you not just because of
your looks, but because you’re also my type! It’s normal to want a person in
every way, if they’re your type, right?
[44]
Lance - But you’re the one who’s been flirting with other guys! You
just came out of the house with some strange woman a second ago!
#grab#
Kai - Woah!
Lance - I can’t stand it!
#Hug#
[45]
Lance - Please. Be mine, alone.
Kai - L-Lance-san? T-those were just my younger brothers and sisters you saw.
Lance - Younger...?
Kai - I have many siblings.
Lance - !!
Yamano family: Kai-oldest son, Kou-3rd son, Kyou - oldest daughter, Kumi - 2nd
son, Kei - youngest daughter
Lance - ... I’m so sorry! And I did all those horrible things to you...
Kai - [Horrible?] I’m surprised. This is the first time...
[46]
Kai - That I’ve ever felt so good... with someone I loved. [Oh! I said it!]
[47]
Lance - Please say it again, Yamano.
Kai - I can’t.
Lance - Do you like it?
Kai - That’s not why! [Please stop tugging on my sweater like that.]
Lance - Then, kiss me.
Kai - [Say what!?]
Lance - It’s dark out. No one will see. Mm.
[48]
Lance - Let’s take it easy from now on.
Kai - That reminds me... You had sake, didn’t you? [I can smell it on you.]
Lance - Uh... N-no!
Kai - Please stop coming to the bar.
Lance - No...!!
Kai - Let’s go back to my place.
Kei - [Brother, where are you?]

[207]
Lance - Hey!
Kai - Lance - san!
What are you doing here!? You’re underage! [And I haven’t even opened yet]
Lance - I don’t drink anymore.
I just wanted to be near you.
#BONK#
Kai - [Oh my.]
[208]
Kumi - What the hell is this dumb foreigner babbling about!?
Kai - Kumi!?
Kou - ....!
Kai - Kou!!
Kou - I can’t stand seeing you like this, big brother Kai! We heard about this
meddling foreigner from sis! Have you been hanging out with him instead of coming
home these days?
Lance - [What the...? It’s a suitcase.]
Kou - [It’s a crime! It’s dirty!] Which of us is more important to you!? Him
or us!?
Kumi [Uh, that’s not the point.]
#slither#
Kou - Brother, you traitor! [Is he really our brother?]
Kai - That’s because you guys are family. Duh. [And I’m busy. ]
Kou - [Who are you comparing us to?] [Waah!!]
Kumi - [Smooth move.]
