Sage Initial 4☆ – Character Story (ft. Nico, Bianchi and Jude)

Congenial

Sage: ~~~♪

Nico: Sage. 

Sage: Whoaa!?

Ni-Nico… You surprised me~

Nico: Sorry, I startled you. I flew over to check on you. Then you showed up here. 

Sage: What’s up? What mission does the Anti-Eclipse Unit have today?                                           

Nico: I’ve just finished one. I came here because I’m bored. 

Sage: Oh. Then, do you want to get something to eat with me? I was about to have lunch too.

Nico: Hm, let’s go eat. 


Jude: Yo, Sage. Perfect timing. 

Sage: Jude-kun, what’s up? Do you need my help?  

Jude: Yes—

Sage: Wait. Let me guess.

…”Haven’t you seen Bianchi-san?” That’s what you’re gonna say, right?

Jude: Ah… Right, that’s what I’m gonna say. 

Your visionary has attained that level. 

Sage: Haha, no. I’m just guessing right now. I had a hunch you might say that.

Jude: What? 

Sage: Ah… Unfortunately, I haven’t seen Bianchi-san yet today. But if you have no idea where he is going, perhaps you can check with the design department? 

Jude: I see… Alrighty, I’ll go to his workspace. 

See you later, Sage. 

Sage: Uhm. I hope you are able to meet Bianchi-san safely.


Bianchi: Sae~~~chan

Sage: Eh? Bianchi-san

Bianchi: Oh, what’s with that reaction? Perhaps you were thinking about me?

Sage: Uhm. Actually, Jude-kun came just now and asked me if I saw you.

Bianchi: What exactly is his problem?

He always looks for me, as if I’m so crucial? He’s sure got nothing better to do.

Sage: I’m sure he is just wondering what Bianchi-san is doing. What if Bianchi-san told him every step of your daily life? Maybe he could concentrate on his work more?

Bianchi: Wait, Sae-chan. Are you hitting your head or something? 

Sage: Haha, I’m joking. 

Bianchi: No way. I’d rather spend my life trying to avoid seeing him. 

Sage: Eh…Isn’t that a bit lonely when we’re all in the same unit?

Bianchi: True, we belong in the same unit, but we don’t get to see each other as much as we did during our rookie year. Even Nico-chan is hard to meet face-to-face. 

Sage: Is that so? 

Bianchi: Well, what an unusual pattern he has. Nico-chan occasionally wanders off and disappears as well.

I think Sae-chan is easier to meet? That’s how I feel…

Sage: Y- you’re right…


Sage: (—Listening to what Bianchi-san said just now, it concerned me a bit.)

(Even though all three of them are part of the same unit, they don’t regularly cross paths.) 

(What are they doing if three of them don’t always meet? How are relations between them?) 

(I’m not sure if I should be concerned about this…)

(But…)

Okay, I’ve made up my mind! Let’s contact Nico and others…then—

Bianchi: Oh? Nico is here too. 

Nico: Ah—

Jude: Bianchi…

Bianchi: Oh my, definitely the worst. You’re here, too. 

Jude: We met at last… I should thank Sage for bringing us together. 

Bianchi: What the? Did Sae-chan call you, too?

Nico: He called the three of us. Sage told me to come here at this time.

Bianchi: ? What do you mean? 

Sage: Ah, uwahhh~! You guys are all here! Thanks for coming!

*busy*

Nico: Sage? 

Bianchi: What’s going on? You appeared really bewildered.…

Sage: Oh that… I thought we should all get together for a cheese fondue— so I did some shopping. 

But I mistakenly bought ingredients for apple pie instead then came home…

Bianchi: I don’t get it…

Sage: I caught a whiff of apple pie at a nearby bakery on my way to the market.…and that’s when I unconsciously shifted my mind.. Haha…

Jude: Haha, I don’t get it at all. 

Nico: The usual accident for Sage.

Bianchi: Well, that’s Sae-chan for you… Why did you initially decide to try cheese fondue?

Sage: That’s because—


Bianchi: I see. Sae-chan is concerned about our circumstance.… 

Sage: N-no, I’m just worried… There’s nothing wrong with you guys—

Jude: You don’t have to worry. I’ll be watching over Bianchi for you.

Bianchi: That is what worries me most.

Sae-chan, though, needn’t worry at all. We are prepared to work together.

You see. We went through the training together with you, Sae-chan. Wasn’t “teamwork” so ingrained in your ears that you had calluses?

Sage: I see… You’re right. We all do things right when we have to.

Bianchi: We’ll do our best too, so that Sae-chan won’t worry about us anymore. Right, you guys?

Jude: Yes. If Bianchi says so. 

Nico: Uhm, no problem. 

Sage: Haha, I’ve been working in circles this time. Not even cheese fondue practice has been possible for me…

Nico: That’s not a problem either.

Sage: Hmm? 

Nico: Let’s all cook apple pie together now. It would be similar to eating cheese fondue.

Sage: Whoa! Ouch… 

Bianchi: Are you okay, Sae-chan? Take care not to burn yourself.

Sage: U-uhm… But look! That came out nicely!

Nico: Yes, a nice one. Very tasty. 

Bianchi: Nico-chan, you’re drooling. 

Jude: After all, how did the cheese fondue and apple pie get here?

Bianchi: Do you think you’d understand me if I told you? Sae-chan wanted all of us to spend time together. 

Jude: Got it. 

Bianchi: …You totally don’t get it. 

Sage: Whoa, looks very delicious ♪ I am very glad to be able to bake and eat my favorite apple pie together.

Bianchi: Fufu. With Sae-chan, we’ll be fine.

Sae-chan is always there to connect us all…♪
