Complete Your Day Off Mission!

note

Covers both fall events.

1: The Elite Guard's Time Off

Maki: Everyone, the mission schedule for this month is ready.
Yume: Got it! Are we doing anything interesting this time? Hurry up and let me see, Maki onee-san!
Suzuka: Last month we had fairly packed schedules; it was hard enough to find half a day to rest. How does it look this time?
Maki: It's another pretty busy month, but it's arranged so each of us gets full days off at least.
Maki: I'll send you all the data so you can go over it yourselves.
Yomi: Thank you.
Suzuka: It's true, there's just enough gaps between missions for some time to ourselves.
Yume: So I get this day off, and this one too~? Huh? Suzuka onee-san, don't we have the same day off?
Suzuka: Would you look at that; that's quite the coincidence.
Yume: Then, we should go play somewhere together!
Suzuka: I'd be glad to. It's rare for our time off to match up like this, so we should take advantage of the opportunity.
Yume: I can't wait~! Maki onee-san, and Yomi onee-san too, if you have the same day off you should come with us!
Maki: Well, there's no way our schedules would line up that conveniently...
Maki: That's strange, I have the same day off...
Yomi: I do too...
Yume: Hooray~! Now we can all go out together! This is the best! This is the best!
Maki: We never get the same day off like this, so what happened here...?
Suzuka: Yukari-sama must be planning something.
Yume: Don't think so hard about it, onee-sans~! We all got the day off together, so we should just have fun with it.
Yomi: In any case, I'm going to confirm with Yukari-sama that this wasn't some mistake.
Yukari: All of you have the same day off?
Maki: Yes. Since we don't get much time off, I'd think all of us getting the same day would never happen.
Suzuka: I was wondering if you were planning something by this, Yukari-sama...
Yukari: I don't recall making any specific order here. Isn't it just that all of you happened to be without missions that day?
Maki: It's true that all of us should have our work done for the time being that day...
Yukari: Then that day is simply the most efficient time to give all of you a break.
Yume: See, see~? I said you were overthinking it, didn't I?
Yume: Oh yeah! Can you take that day off too, Yukari-sama? Then we can all have fun together!
Yukari: Unfortunately, I have a pile of duties steadily accumulating that need to be dealt with. You'll all have to enjoy yourselves without me.
Yume: Well that sucks~. But at least the four of us are together, right!
Suzuka: Yes, I'm glad we could clear up that it wasn't all some big mistake at least. Though...
Yomi: Will it really be alright for all of us to be absent on the same day?
Suzuka: We can have our time off whenever, so wouldn't it be best if we adjusted the schedule now?
Yume: Ehh, but I thought we were all going to go hang out together...
Yukari: Wait, there's no need for you to change your schedule. If you go making adjustments without good reason, it would throw other people's plans into disarray.
Yukari: Since you have no work to do, you should enjoy your time off. So long as you fulfill the obligations you're given, you have nothing to worry about.
Suzuka: Y... Yes ma'am.
Maki: ...Yukari-sama might have said all that, but I'm still not sure about this.
Yume: Yaaay! Yukari-sama said it's okay, so we're all gonna go play together, right!
Suzuka: Well, we did get approval from Yukari-sama... And it would be nice for all the elite guard to spend time together.
Maki: You're right, you never know if we'll see another chance like this.
Yume: Alright-! So let's think of where we're going!
Yomi: ...

2: You Have the Day Off?

On the day everyone had off--

Yume: Maki onee-san, Suzuka onee-san! They're starting the line for the roller coaster! We should get up in front.
Suzuka: Don't run like that, Yume. It's dangerous.
Yume: I'll be fine-! Who do you think I am!
Maki: There sure are a lot of people who came to the amusement park today, aren't there?
Suzuka: I know, it's already so crowded. If only Yomi had come along with us...
Yomi: ......
Yukari: Hm? Yomi, don't you have the day off?
Yomi: Yukari-sama. Good work. Is something wrong?
Yukari: To begin with, Yomi, I'm talking about you. What are you doing here?
Yomi: Yes, I was doing my usual duties, reviewing paperwork that needs to be settled...
Yukari: I'd heard Maki and the others went to an amusement park. You didn't go with them?
Yomi: They did invite me, but I remembered I still had paperwork to take care of.
Yomi: Approved, unapproved... Approved...
Yukari: That paperwork, it's not something that needed doing right now, was it?
Yomi: No...
Yukari: Then, on your day off, when your comrades invited you out, why would you refuse them and force yourself back to work?
Yomi: That's because...
Yomi: Yukari-sama. I appreciate your consideration for allowing all of us to take the day off at once... However, I can't bring myself to leave the Origami household without any members of the elite guard.
Yukari: Is that something you discussed with the others before deciding?
Yomi: No... They looked so happy planning where to go on their day off that I couldn't bring it up, so I told them I remembered I still had work left to do.
Yukari: I see. Yomi, your devotion to your duties is one of your admirable qualities, however...
Yukari: How about this. I have an assignment for someone as dedicated as you that needs to be taken care of today.
Yomi: Understood, I'll do whatever you ask of me.
Yukari: In that case, take the day off at once.
Yomi: Eh...?
Yukari: Making use of the breaks in your work to rest is an invaluable part of self-management. Your mission today is to enjoy your day off to the fullest.
Yomi: But, Yukari-sama...
Yukari: Put away those papers at once, and begin your mission. That's all I have to say.
Yomi: Yukari-sama! ...She's gone.
Yomi: Yukari-sama gave me this mission, so I have to carry it out, but how...?

3: Yomi's Day Off

Yomi: Enjoy my day off to the fullest... That's what Yukari-sama told me, but what does that mean, and where could I do it...?
Yomi: ...
Yomi: Ah, that's right. If I join Shidou-san and the others, who should still be at the amusement park, Yukari-sama must be able to accept that.
Yomi: First, to see if joining them is still a possibility. I'll call Shidou-san.
Yomi: She won't pick up... In that case, someone else...
Yume: Hey heyyy~! Yomi onee-san? It's Yume!
Yomi: Tsubakuro-san, I wanted to talk to Shidou-san...
Yume: Maki onee-san went to go buy some ice cream. Get this, I'm about to ride a roller coaster with Maki onee-san and Suzuka onee-san!
Yomi: I'm glad you're having a good time. When Shidou-san gets back, could you please tell her to call...
Yume: Ah, she's back! I'll put her on!
Maki: Hello, Yomi? Sorry I couldn't get back to you. This place has been packed all morning. I wish you could've been here with us.
Maki: Anyway, what's the matter? Did something come up with work?
Yomi: No, it's not like that...
Public Announcement: Sorry to report... ber of visitors... restricting entry... der of the day...
Maki: Oh, huh...
Yomi: What was that?
Maki: It's nothing. I was just thinking it was so crowded today, when they announced they're restricting entry from now on.
Yomi: They're... Restricting entry?
Maki: Ah, I think Suzuka has something she wants to ask you. I'm putting her on.
Suzuka: Hello, it's me. Yomi, which do you prefer, chocolates or cookies?
Yomi: I don't mind either of them...
Suzuka: When you answer like that, it only makes this decision harder... The souvenir shop here has all sorts of delicious looking sweets.
Suzuka: It's a shame you aren't with us, Yomi. We could have had fun picking them out together.
Suzuka: Oh, it's our turn to get on the ride, so I'll have to hang up now. We'll buy you souvenirs on our way back, so do your best at work, Yomi.
Yomi: ......If they're restricting entry, I won't be able to join them at the amusement park, will I...
Yomi: In that case, where could I go to enjoy my day off to the fullest...?
Yomi: Now that I think about it, I was never taught how to spend free time... What do I do...
Yomi: If I look into it at the library, I might be able to find a book that can help.
Yomi: Ways to spend free time... Ways to spend free time...
Passing Toji A: Hey, next time we get a day off, wanna stop by Harajuku?
Passing Toji B: Sounds good. Harajuku it is~!
Yomi: (I see, Harajuku...? I remember other toji often talking about having fun during their time off there.)
Yomi: (If I go to Harajuku, I might find a way to enjoy my day off to its fullest. I should go now, for the sake of my mission...)
Yomi: Sigh, I've finally arrived. This is my first time coming here outside of suppressing aradama. It's crowded during normal hours.
Yomi: Now that I'm here to enjoy Harajuku on my day off... What exactly should I be doing...?
Yui: Heyy, good looking~! Is something bothering you? Why don't I show you a good time~!
Yomi: A good time? Are you talking to me?
Yui: Ah-! You're from the elite guard... Satsuki Yomi-san!
Yui: My bad! You know me, as soon as I see some cute girl I can't help myself. I had no idea you were one of the elite guard...
Yui: I'm really sorry about this! Anyway, I'll leave you alone now...
Yomi: Please wait. Weren't you going to show me a good time?
Yui: Eh?
Yomi: In that case, by all means, let me accompany you.
Yui: EHHHH-------------!!!!!

4: Yui's Day Off Lessons

Yomi: That is, will you teach me the fundamentals of "a good time in Harajuku"?
Yui: You should loosen up first, Satsuki-san!
Yomi: I'm sorry. I don't have a good understanding of what it means to spend free time.
Yomi: If you don't mind, I want to join you on my day off and have you teach me how to enjoy Harajuku. Would that be acceptable?
Yui: Hnnng, I couldn't be happier, getting a request like that! Of course I'm okay with it! It's my lucky day, taking Satsuki-san on a date around Harajuku~!
Yui: I'll give you the full tour, so you can see exactly how I get the most out of Harajuku~!
Yomi: I'll be in your care. What should we be doing first...?
Yui: When it comes to Harajuku, the thing that stands out most is crepes!
Yomi: I've heard about those before...
Yui: And observing cute girls eating them!
Yomi: Observing...? Is that right...
Yui: Of course! We shouldn't waste any more time! Let's head to where they're selling some~!
Yui: Okay, now we'll begin our lookout in front of that crepe stand!
Yomi: Understood. When it comes to observing girls eating crepes, what should I be looking for specifically...
Yui: Just trust in your instincts, and when you see a girl who grabs your attention, look verrry closely at her behavior and expressions!
Yomi: My instincts... I see.
Yui: Ah-, that one's so cute! No, wait! Her friend next to her's good looking too~. I don't believe it, are they twins~? That's adorable~!
Yomi: Stare...
Yui: So what do you think, Satsuki-san? Can't get enough of those glittering "Which crepe should I eat" eyes, can you~?
Yui: Just seeing that is enough to keep me coming back to Harajuku!
Yomi: I see, their eyes were glittering? Understood, I'll focus on that point from now on. Is there anywhere else I should pay attention to...
Yui: Let's see~, for example... Like if you see a cool looking girl suddenly start passionately explaining the appeal of chocolate mint, while she licks away at it!
Yui: Getting to see that kind of gap in attitude is the real thrill of coming to a crepe stand!
Yomi: The enjoyment of witnessing the moment schoolgirls categorize their tastes, contradicting your expectations... Am I understanding it?
Yui: Mmm~, you don't have to make it sound so complicated, or even really understand it. Just so long as it makes you feel good, it's all alright!
Yomi: To be honest, I can't seem to find the same excitement in this as you can, Yamashiro-san. But in order to make a meaningful report to Yukari-sama, I'll try my best.
Yui: Ahaha, you're so weird, Satsuki-san! I know! To celebrate us meeting up today, how about I buy you a crepe?
Yui: Sorry that took a minute. Here you go! I only have pocket change on me, so I had to buy the cheapest cream crepe though.
Yomi: Thank you for your consideration.
Yomi: Chew, chew... This is simple, but very delicious.
Yui: That's great~. I feel like I'm dreaming, getting to see Satsuki-san eating up close like this! Ahhh~ I'm being healed~.
Yui: This is what time off is all about! Thanks to you, I had the best vacation. Now I'm refreshed and ready to give my all starting tomorrow!
Yomi: (Yamashiro-san seems to have fully enjoyed her day off, but is this actually what Yukari-sama asked me to do...?)

5: Help Arrives!

Yui: Satsuki-san, it's time for the next attraction: observing the girls standing in line at the bubble tea stand! Let's go!
Yomi: Understood.
Yui: You know, with the streets this packed, there's cuties every where you turn. Fun huh~.
Yomi: (I'm not sure if the way Yamashiro-san enjoys her day off will satisfy what Yukari-sama asked of me...)
Yui: Wait-! Those two cute girls that were together just now...
Yomi: Ah, Yamashiro-san, please don't leave me behind.
Yui: Sayaka-chaaan! Mai-chaaaan!
Sayaka: Yui.
Mai: Fancy running into you here.
Yui: I know, it's like I won the lottery today~! I'm about to start tearing up! So, so? What're you two doing in Harajuku?
Mai: Sayaka-chan and I had the day off, so we thought we'd go shopping here.
Sayaka: We drank bubble tea too.
Yui: Nnn~ I can't get enough of it~ This "girls day out" feeling! I can't believe I also managed to run into you two today~.
Sayaka: Also...?
Yomi: Good, I caught up with you. Yamashiro-san, why did you run away?
Sayaka: Satsuki Yomi...
Yomi: Yanase-san and Itomi-san.
Mai: You two are an unusual pair. What were you up to?
Yomi: Today, I was having Yamashiro-san teach me meaningful ways to spend my day off.
Sayaka: Teaching you how to spend your day off...?
Yui: Satsuki-san said she wanted to know how to have fun in her free time, so I'm coaching her in my way of enjoying Harajuku to the fullest~.
Mai: Coaching? What did you teach her? I want to know too.
Yui: Stuff like sitting in front of a crepe stand and observing the cute girls going by!
Sayaka: Observing...?
Yomi: I learned to watch a person's eyes as they make purchases. And that it's essential to measure the gap in deviation between a person's style and their tastes.
Yui: There's no better way to spend your day off than joining a cute girl to watch cute girls, don't you think~?
Mai: I-I guess that's one way to spend it...
Sayaka: Satsuki Yomi, did you have fun doing that?
Yomi: I'm diligently trying to. But I'm still unfamiliar with spending time off.
Sayaka: I don't think... That's how people normally spend their day off.
Yomi: That isn't normal?
Yui: Huhhhh? You're kidding? I do this stuff for fun practically every day though...
Yomi: If what Yamashiro-san does in her free time isn't normal, then what does a normal day off consist of...?
Yui: Satsuki-san, I'm sorry! I was having the best time with you, but I think I might've not really been all that helpful?
Yomi: ...
Mai: Um, if you don't mind, why don't the four of us enjoy ourselves together?
Yomi: Could I join you?
Sayaka: If Mai says so, we'll do it.
Yui: Eh, no way-! Somebody pinch me! I'm surrounded by cute girls! Forget having a good day off, I must be dreaming!

6: Another Helper

Yomi: Yanase-san, and Itomi-san too, I'll be counting on your guidance.
Sayaka: ...
Mai: To start with, why don't we wander about and look at the western clothes on sale?
Mai: This dress is cute, isn't it?
Yui: I know, right! I think it'd look good on Satsuki-san! Here, hold it up to yourself for a second!
Yomi: ...
Sayaka: Satsuki Yomi, do you not like it?
Yomi: The materials seem to lack durability, and the shape of the sleeves would get in the way of fighting.
Mai: Ah, y-you're right... I didn't think of it, from that perspective.
Mai: Th-Then why don't we look in that general store over there? They sell some cute and a little strange mascot accessories. It's a popular place.
Yui: Wow, look at this! This doll's so uglycute~! (dasakawa)
Yomi: Aradama!?
Yui: N-No! That's not what I said-! Not aradama, da-sa-ka-wa!
Yomi: Forgive me. To me, it sounded like you said something else.
Mai: I guess that's proof that your mind is always ready for action. That's the elite guard for you...
Yomi: ...
Mai: What's the matter, you're checking your phone. Is someone trying to get in touch with you?
Yomi: No, it's nothing important.
Yui: In that case, let's go to the next store! Forget about your phone!
Yomi: You're right. Let's go.
Yomi: ......
Sayaka: Satsuki Yomi, you checked your phone again.
Yomi: I feel like I might receive an urgent message...
Yomi: I'm sorry, it's my mission to enjoy my day off to its fullest, but aradama suppression is weighing on the back of my mind...
Mai: Maybe, because things are so busy here in the city, it's hard for you to feel at ease?
Yomi: What do you mean?
Mai: Everyone has different places they feel like they can relax in. In your case, Satsuki-san, if we move somewhere that's more rich with nature, you'll have a better day off, I think.
Yomi: I see, a place with more nature? It's true that Harajuku is so crowded it's difficult for me to calm down. I agree that we should move somewhere quieter.
Yui: In that case, where would be good~? When I think of cute girls in the great outdoors, it's gotta be the beach!
Sayaka: Yui, it's November...
Yui: Shoot. But I wanted to see all of you in swimsuits~.
Kofuki: Huh? What're you guys doing all hanging out here?
Yui: Whoa! Even Kofuki-san's here now! That's it! You should come mess around with us, Kofuki-san!
Kofuki: Mess around? I just got done doing that with some aradama-chan, so I'm headed back to Kamakura.
Yui: Ehhh, it's only noon. What's the harm in hanging out with us for a while~?
Kofuki: The harm's that I hate how packed the stations get at night. And the leaves are in their fall colors, so Kamakura gets a ton of sightseers this time of season.
Mai: Fall colors! That could do the trick. Why don't we all visit Kamakura and go leaf viewing?
Sayaka: That could be good... I agree with Mai.
Yui: Good looking girls under the red leaves! That's the kind of scenery you can't see any other time of year. I'm all for this plan~! What about you, Satsuki-san? What do you want to do?
Yomi: The Origami estate is in Kamakura, so I knew about the leaves in their fall colors. But the idea of visiting there with the intention of sightseeing is very interesting to me.
Mai: If we leave now, the stations shouldn't be crowded. Shichinosato-san, if it's not too much of a bother, could you show us some of the best spots to see the leaves?
Kofuki: Huhh? Why do I have to...
Sayaka: Kofuki. Please.
Kofuki: ...Ughhhh... Fine, have it your way. I'll show you around.
Kofuki: But let me say this, I'm not going anywhere near the usual tourist traps. I find some good places every now and then when I'm on missions, so that's all I'll show you.

7: First Fall Leaf Viewing

Mai: Wow, it's beautiful!
Sayaka: Amazing... The trees are all red.
Yui: Ooh~, that's crazy! It's as pretty as a painting! You know your stuff, Kofuki-san!
Kofuki: Right? If I say it's good, it's good. What do you think, Yomi-senpai?
Yomi: ..................
Kofuki: O-Oi, are you in there? Yomi-senpai?
Yomi: Ah-, excuse me! I was overwhelmed by the sight of all the leaves.
Yomi: This must have always been here in Kamakura, but this is the first time I've felt aware of it...
Yui: Gahhh~, I missed it, Satsuki-san losing herself in the fall colors! I'll get my camera ready, so please do it again!
Yomi: ...Even if you ask me to, it's difficult to repeat it now.
Yui: In front of a backdrop of autumn leavings, the seductive look of a slightly lost Satsuki-san! This works too~! A rare shot that can only be found this time of year!
Yui: Okay, okay~, it's your turn now, Mai-chan, Sayaka-chan! Try gathering up the leaves on the ground, and then whooshing them all up in the air~!
Mai: Eh? Ummm~... Like, this?
Sayaka: The leaves falling down... They're pretty.
Yomi: The ground and the air are filled with such pretty colors. It's beautiful.
Yui: Mmmm~, that's good, that's good~! Beautiful leaves and beautiful girls! Kofuki-san, you need to get in here too~!
Kofuki: No thanks, I'm fine over here!
Kofuki: But you know, if you guys are gonna be this happy about it, I guess it was worth getting dragged along.
Kofuki: Oh yeah, Yomi-senpai, you're from Renpu too, aren't you? Do you know any other good spots?
Yomi: That's right... There was a place I heard about during my time as a student. It should be around here.
Yui: Then, to thank us, you should take us there!
Mai: I don't think you should tell others to do things as thanks...
Yomi: Understood. I'll think back and try to lead you there.
Yomi: It should be this place.
Mai: Wow, it's beautiful here too.
Kofuki: Well what do you know, even Yomi-senpai has some good ideas!
Yomi: I'm glad to hear everyone likes it.
Yomi: Please excuse me...
Sayaka: Satsuki Yomi's stomach growls too.
Yomi: I'm sorry. Thinking back on it, the only thing I've eaten today was a crepe.
Mai: If I'd known we could have had a picnic together, I would have made some boxed lunches.
Yomi: If I'd known this would happen, I would have packed rice balls...
Yui: Well I thought something like this might happen! So while we were passing the shops just now, I bought some tasty looking stuff!
Kofuki: Hey, nice thinking!
Sayaka: Croquettes, senbei, dango. They all look tasty... Satsuki Yomi, which one do you want?
Yomi: In that case, I'll take a croquette.
Kofuki: I want a croquette too! The ones the shops sell here are nice and cold. You've got a good eye, Yui.
Yui: Yay~! I got complimented.
Sayaka: Chew, chew... This dango is tasty. Mai, let me try your croquette.
Mai: Here, you can have half. Can I try your dango too?
Mai: Ahh~, it's so good. Compared to eating crepes in Harajuku, this is wonderful in its own way.
Yomi: Yes. Eating here, surrounded by beautiful scenery, adds a different flavor than normal.
Yomi: I've visited this area many times while on missions, but now that I'm here on my day off, I'm finding things that make it feel like an entirely different place.
Sayaka: Satsuki Yomi, right now... You're enjoying your time off.
Yomi: ...This is what it means to enjoy your time off... I see, I think I finally understand it.
Yomi: Everyone, thank you for joining me today.

8: Day Off Report

The day after their time off--

Maki: Yukari-sama, thank you for giving us our day off yesterday.
Yukari: Were all of you able to enjoy yourselves?
Maki: Yes. We met at 8:00 am outside the entrance to the Origami estate. Afterward, the three of us moved as a group to...
Suzuka: Maki-san, you aren't delivering an aradama suppression report. Why don't we hand them their souvenirs before we tell them about our trip?
Suzuka: For Yukari-sama, we picked out chocolate in the shape of the amusement park mascot. And for Yomi, these cookies.
Yomi: Thank you.
Yume: Yomi onee-san, let me have some of those later.
Maki: Didn't you buy cookies for yourself, Yume?
Yume: They were too good, so I already ate them all! Anyway, let's talk about our trip~. What was your favorite part of the park?
Suzuka: In my case, I won't forget the go kart competition we had.
Yume: Maki onee-san was stepping on the gas so hard it sounded like her kart was going to break.
Maki: Y-Yume! You didn't have to tell them that!
Suzuka: It was like watching a little kid, the way you kept trying to go faster.
Maki: Not you too, Suzuka...
Yume: But I still won in the end. Next time, I wanna race Yukari-sama and Yomi onee-san too!
Yukari: Good, I'm glad to hear you enjoyed yourselves.
Yukari: How did you spend your time, Yomi? I heard you didn't go to the amusement park.
Yomi: Yes. I completed my mission to enjoy my day off to the fullest without incident, and have returned to make my report.
Yomi: The details of my report are written in this document, which you can read through if you wish.
Maki: Mission?
Suzuka: Report...?
Yukari: ...I see. You recorded not just the beauty of the scenery, but the flavor of the dango. This is a fine report.
Yomi: Does this satisfy your conditions for my assignment?
Yukari: Yes. Admiring the changing of the seasons through observing the fall leaves, and sampling the regional delicacies. I believe you fully enjoyed your day off.
Yume: Ehh, you went to see the fall leaves? What the heck, that's no fair that only Yomi onee-san got to go! You should've let me go with you~.
Maki: Yomi, do you mind if we read through that report too?
Yomi: No, go ahead.
Suzuka: Hmm. So this is what you meant by your mission. It sounds like it was a lovely time, going leaf viewing.
Maki: Mmhm. Reading over this, it's making me wish we had gone to see it too.
Suzuka: In that case, if we're lucky enough to get the same day off again, why don't we all go to see the fall colors?
Maki: That sounds like a plan. Another coincidence like this could always come up, even it's unlikely.
Yume: When that happens, Yomi onee-san, you have to show us all the prettiest places!
Yomi: I will. We can all go together next time.
