(“Romeo and Juliet”?)
Freya:
Are those tickets to Shakespeare’s play?
Vincent:
Yes. Although in this era, he goes by the pseudonym ‘Will'
(Thinking back, le Comte had also referred to Shakespeare as Will)
It seems Shakespeare is still working as a playwright in this era,
and tonight’s play is one that is highly anticipated, one which tickets are much sought after.
Freya:
Is it really okay for you to invite me to such a prestigious event?
Vincent:
Certainly. You are always working so hard, Freya, so I thought I’d take you out tonight for a well-deserved break
(He’s such an angel…!)
(It makes me so happy, that he’d taken the time to notice the work I’ve done)
(Selection)
Freya:
Then, I shall take you up on your offer. Will you bring me to see the play?
Vincent:
Of course. I too, am very much looking forward to Will’s play tonight
Vincent:
Shall we go and greet Will? I have been wanting to meet him for a long time now
(That’s right…aside from that night, I have not formally introduced myself to Will yet)
(It will be my first trip to town, too)
Excitement bubbles in my chest in cheerful anticipation for tonight, but Theo still seems apprehensive
Theodorus:
I have my reservations about this…
Freya:
Why are you still so worried? We are not going on a date.
Theodorus:
It is not about that. Just that I dislike the guy, frankly speaking
(Is…he referring to Shakespeare?)
Arthur:
Well, I’m going to have to agree with him on that point
Arthur:
He’s a tough read, that one. You never know what he’s thinking- I don’t like it.
Arthur speaks plainly, expressing his mixed feelings about the matter.
(…speaking of which)
Freya:
Why is Shakespeare the only one living apart from the mansion?
(Apart from the manse’s residents, I’d thought that there would have been many other historical figures who've been revived as well,)
(But it seems like Shakespeare is the only one who doesn’t live in the mansion…)
Theodorus:
Even we are not privy to such details
Arthur:
That’s right. Shakespeare was the first one to have been revived by le Comte…so we were not around to witness what had transpired between them
Arthur:
When we arrived in this world, Shakespeare had already been living outside the mansion.
Arthur:
I've tried to hunt around for clues as to why he would have been kicked out, but
Arthur:
Le Comte and Leonardo refused to breathe a word about it
(…If even le Comte is keeping mum about this, I couldn't fashion a guess at what the reason could have been)
Freya:
But to dislike someone just because you can’t understand them is a little…
Arthur:
No, I had thought it weird at first, but something about him doesn't sit right with me
There was a sharp glint in Arthur’s eyes.
Vincent:
What was it?
Arthur:
That guy…he seems to know a bit too much about us
