The cuteness continues, unrelenting! XDXD

Thanks to modorenai for proofing the translation, which meant this got finished about a month early (because I sit on translations forever when I do it all myself).




Chibita: Hey, Ryo-kun...Bath?
<--Seems like he likes baths
Chibita: Bath soon?
Ryo: Take one by yourself
Chibita: It's deep!!
Chibita: I'll drown if I'm not on your lap, Ryo-kun!!




Ryo: You know...
Ryo: I have homework that I need to finish by tomorrow
Ryo: So I can't right now!!
Chibita: Homework!?...I'll help!!
PITSU!!
Ryo: No thanks
Immediate reply.
Chibita: But...That kind of thing is my job!!
Because I'm a pencil!!
Chibita: ...Though...You used to always draw silly scribbles with me...
Ryo: Oh, shut up...Be a good writing utensil and don't make a noise!!




Ryo: In the first place, there aren't that many people my age who use pencils
Chibita: Pitsu!?
Chibita: Why!?
Ryo: Because we have mechanical pencils
Chibita: Me...mechanical pencils!?
sfx: nervous
Ryo: You get "sha-pen" by shortening "sharp pencil!!" (sha-pen is mechanical pencil in Japanese)
Ryo: It's an excellent product, all you need to do is press and the lead comes out...There's no worry about it getting worn down like you did, Chibita
TA DA!!
PITSU!!
sfx: shocked...



Ryo: Now that you understand, go to sleep already
Ryo: (I'm going to the bathroom...)
Chibita: What's this "sha-pen!?" What a pretentious name!!
Chibita: Pitsu!...The lead comes out steadily...
sfx: click click click
Chibita: It really is convenient...
Chibita: Oh!
sfx: snap
Chibita: But...The lead easily breaks
Chibita: Without any lead...It's just a stick...




Ryo: Ah!!! What happened? All the lead is broken!!
Ryo: Hey, Chibita...!!
sfx: twitch
Chibita: Pitsu!!
Ryo: Man, what am I going to do?...I'm out of extra lead. I need to do tomorrow's homework!!
Chibita: But...But!...I want you to use pencils, Ryo-kun!!
Ryo: Don't break them all!! That's awful!!
sfx: pitsu!




Ryo: How would you feel if you were broken without ever being used!?
Ryo: (Not like a sha-pen would have feelings or anything...)
Chibita: Pitsu!!
Chibita: I'm...I'm sorry...
Ryo: Oh...Hey, Mika...Can you give me some pencil lead?
sfx: pitsu!
sfx: turn away
Ryo: Fine then, I'll just go to the convenience store...




Ryo: Hm...pencil lead...
Ryo: Here it is
I want you to use pencils!!
Ryo: I'm home...
Ryo: (Geez, Chibita...You really fell asleep?)
sfx: click
sfx: zzzz....




Ryo: And here I bothered to buy pencils...
sfx: rustle
Ryo: Oh, that reminds me
Ryo: I don't have a pencil sharpener
Chibita: I'm sorry...
sfx: mumble mumble
Ryo: Hm...this is harder than it looks (with a cutter...)

...Without the context, THIS IS DISTURBING. Or it could just be that my imagination is just feral. For a minute I thought Ryo was actually cutting up Chibita into little bits -- then I realised he meant other, er, soulless pencils.

I think I'm traumatised. D:

*edges away from you*

I read it too fast? ^^;; I reread it about twice before I realised he wasn't actually hurting anything or anyone.

Thanks for putting that disturbing thought into my head...*shudders*

[baka-neko.livejournal.com]

Sorry? ^^;; It was after some very careful reading then I realised that Ryo was not actually a serial killer. Even so, I think my heart nearly stopped.

It's interesting how all three of us have managed to come up with different interpretations for that one scene. XD

[insaneneko.livejournal.com]

Very different interpretations, too. :P
