Thread: Flower Knight 4-panel theater

Title: Believe in yourself

Cyclamenn: <I'm actually appearing on a stage, but as expected, I have no confidence...>
Cyclamenn: Everyone! P-please follow my movements... and swing your bananas...!
<and the crowd goes wild>
<Cyclamenn shivering>
<Cyclamenn: Haaaaaaah...>
Cyclamenn: Th-thank you very muuuuuch!! <waving quickly>
Anemone: If you wave that fast, everyone won't be able to keep up!

Title: It's a present!

Water Hyssop: Rabbit-ear Iris, here's a present!
Rabbit-ear Iris: <Waa!> Thank you very much! I wonder what it could be?
Water Hyssop: It's the Banana Ocean Idol costume!
<Public: What's that? What's that?>
Rabbit-ear Iris: I-idol!! So lovely!!
Water Hyssop: There's a set for Hyssop too, of course!
<Ta-dah!>
Water Hyssop: With these we sing while dancing-!
<public getting noisy>
Rabbit-ear Iris: I see!
<Shortly after, the culture carried out from Banana Ocean>
<really caught on in Lotus Lake for a while>
Lotus: What is all this!?

Title: Hot blooded! Easter Cactus

Easter Cactus: I'm bad with cold or chilly things, but
<flames roaring>
Easter Cactus: I love things that get hot!!
Easter Cactus: Like sport competitions!!
<Pasukoa presenting>
Easter Cactus: Or like the excitement when listening to extremely lively music!!
Easter Cactus: Of course, my work as a flower knight that allows me to protect this beloved world can get me pretty heated up too!! <Whe-w!>
Purslane: A hot [attakai] hearted person was here [attanokai], all along!¹
Easter Cactus: Oh... Purslane...
Easter Cactus: That was ho-... ho-... interesting... <shivering>
<Pasukoa frozen>
Purslane: Eeeh [hie]!? Why did the tension suddenly get all chilly [hiehie]!?¹
Easter Cactus: A... Ahaha...

Title: Trace of a conspiracy?

Nymphaea: This is someone's conspiracy for sure! <uuu>
Di Yu: Nymphaea... What's wrong?
Nymphaea: Di Yu, please look at this! These weird tracks left on the ground... It is because I decided to take a walk after the rain stopped, isn't it...
<staring at the ground>
Di Yu: Round tracks on the muddy part of the ground... Surely, something spherical was placed here?
Nymphaea: These are the tracks of a mysterious creature that came to assault me for sure! I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorryyyyyy!! <Waaah!>
<Imagined creature: Kshaaaaa>
Di Yu: Such a creature, surely does not exist.
<Nymphaea: That's absolutely, absolutely the case! I have nothing left but to die right nooooow!>
<Di Yu: Calculating from these dents in the ground and the large amount of earth...>
Pasukoa: <Zzzzzzzz>

Title: Autumn of reading

Di Yu: Autumn of reading...
Di Yu: Reading the types of books you don't usualy read... Surely, this will breathe some life into my tactics?
<commenting>
Di Yu: I see... That's how you can make candy...
Di Yu: The way to cook... Replacing tactics on the battlefield with it, possible?
<silence>
<commenting again>
Di Yu: These are... species of animals...
Di Yu: The architecture of Bergamot Valley...
Mint: <Di Yu... She's learning with quite the zeal right now, isn't she...>
Di Yu: This, later to Mint...
Mint: <!!>
Mint: <To me...? I wonder what it could be?>
Di Yu: Let's try this out on Mint!
<self-explanatory book>
Mint: <What could it be... I'm having an extremely bad premonition right now!!>

Title: A single goal?

Mint: EI!
Mint: YA!
<training>
Spring Starflower: Mint, you've been training by yourself non-stop for a while now, haven't you?
Mint: Yes, Spring Starflower! ...Of course!
<panting>
Mint: That's because I need to become strong enough to exterminate pests!
Spring Starflower: I also want to become strong and exterminate...
Spring Starflower: <...the Commander>
Mint: In that case, let's train together!
<training resumes>
Mint: To become strong!!...
Mint: <...and exterminate pests!!>
Spring Starflower: To become strong!!...
Spring Starflower: <...and strike down the Commander!!>
Easter Cactus: <Somehow, I get the feeling I'm hearing different inner thoughts...>

Title: What kind of taste?

Echinacea: Wine is a pretty tasty thing, isnt' it?
Pinkladies: Yes.
Pinkladies: Wine is a circle. Tasty wine is a pointless thing but it has a "rolled around after picking up" taste to it.¹
Echinacea: ...I see.
Echinacea: <I don't get it though...>
Pinkladies: Echinacea, you liked the black tea, right?
Pinkladies: What kind of taste did the black tea have?
Echinacea: Black tea...?
Echinacea: ...Right, let's see...
Echinacea: The moment a mouthful enters your mouth, the intensity that spreads through it... it's just like the Flasberg Canyon...
<commenting away>
Echinacea: Then again it is the country exceeding it, visible further away. The flavor is like the Mafur Plateau's soft fluttering breeze... Ahh, that really is the legendary "Hot Spring of Life", is it not?
Pinkladies: ...I see.
Pinkladies: <I don't get it though...>

Title: Anemone's outfit

Anemone: There was a moment at the previous festival where I wore a mascot character costume for a while, wasn't there...¹
Anemone: It was really heavy and embarassing, but
Anemone: now that I think about it, it became a good memory.
Coleus: Lady Anemone, here is your outfit.
Coleus: It was created in the image of the salmon from the memorable Salmon Curry~! <boom>
Coleus: Just kidding~! <Fufu> It's just a Coleus jok...
Anemone: It's a salmon this time, huh... <equipped>
Coleus: <Wha!!?> You already adapted to mascot character costumes!?
Coleus: <Why!?>

¹ See chapter 23.

Title: Trace of a conspiracy once again¹

Di Yu: You were the perpetrator?
<Pasukoa caught>
Tsurubakia: Hm? What's this? These weird footprints are... making a round indent on the muddy surface of the ground... <staring>
Di Yu: Ah... That is...
Tsurubakia: <babbling away> Hmph... something like this maybe? If these footprints are real they should belong to the Beast of Demise Shimreli² that comes from the world parallel to our own known as Silver Lace³.
Tsurubakia: <still babbling> Since the never-ending conflicts of this world are the result of the ruler of Silver Lace causing disturbances in our world, we're trying to bring peace to this world that has both a normal and a hidden side.⁴ ...Yes, just like it was written in a book.
Nymphaea: As I thought, these were the footprints of a mysterious creature, weren't they!? I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's my fault...!! <panicking>
Tsurubakia: No, don't worry about it. Actually, there is a solution to this situation...
Di Yu: <Surely, keeping the truth hidden is the correct answer...?>

¹ See chapter 27.
² シムレリ = shimureri
³ シルバー・レース　= shiruba re-su, so probably Silver Lace or Silver Race.
⁴ If anyone has a better idea how to translate this, take your shot.

Title: Panda lullaby

[A new series from the creators of the highly popular "Otter Samba"¹ sweets called "Panda lullaby"... You can get a Panda plushie from their launch celebration lottery]
Artichoke: ...is what I heard, so I bought one, but unfortunately it's a miss... I really wanted to add one to my collection...
Vanda: Artichoke, lookie, lookie! Here's what I got from the store just now. As expected, pandas are really cute, aren't they?
Artichoke: Tha... that's...!!
Artichoke: .........is that so? I'm happy for you. ...May I touch that plushie of yours for a bit?
Vanda: No problem, go ahead~ However that is pretty unexpected, you know?
Artichoke: Is that so? I once took part in intelligence gathering activities while wearing a costume... And since knowing the texture is part of the job... <chatting on while petting>
Vanda: You're required to wear a panda costume soon?
