"We asked for help from a friend of Sumire-san's for this photo!"

|

"Is that why you asked if you could take a picture back then?"

|

"Yes! Sumire-san, you look so beautiful!"

|

"Coming from you, Hikari-san, that almost sounds like a backhanded compliment."

---

"Please tell us your name and occupation!"

|

"Sumire Hanamori. I'm still a high school student."

|

"May I ask your reason for moving in?"

|

"You can, but... we talk about this at every welcome party when someone new joins, so everyone knows, right? ...It's because it's close to the station and the department store."

|

"Thank you! So, what are your recent hobbies?"

|

"Running, baking... Just normal stuff. I'm an honors student at school, you know."

"Here's a shot from their room!"

|

"Hikari... how do I look? Do I look human in this?"

|

"Yes! You look very lovely and cute! But in Japan, it's not common sense to wear shoes inside the house."

|

"That's... right. Next time, I'll be careful...? ...Want some coffee?"

|

"I'd love some!"

---

"Now then, with coffee in hand, excuse me... Yes, please tell us your name and occupation!"

|

"Komori. Just... Komori. Um, I work as a cafe staff member?"

|

"Thank you! Next is the reason for moving in... If you don't want to talk about it, we can skip!"

|

"It's okay... I live here because... it looked like people would gather here?"

|

"Yes, thank you! Do you like interacting with people? I do too! Finally, what are your hobbies?"

|

"Observing humans, staring into space..."

|

"For reference, what are the results of your observation of me?"

|

"Behavior that could be interpreted as a lack of social distance toward kin or those sharing a nest within the same species. However, what exists there is not defensive or selfish behavior based on biological instinct to increase allies, but rather an altruistic spirit desiring synchronization and harmony with others that can be seen as extremely optimistic. Due to a clear code of conduct, you are rarely shunned by humans, who are said to have extremely exclusive personalities. ...How's that?"

|

"Thank you! So that means I'm not hated! What a relief~"

"I borrowed a studio from my agency to take this!"

|

"Just because you're the photographer, you're the only one taking photos in a proper place..."

|

"But, I think it's very Hikari-like."

|

"Hikari-san is beautiful, after all. The rumor that models look good in any photo is true."

|

"That's right, aru. As one of your sponsors, I put my heart into making Hikari's portions of food, aru."

|

"Aren't you worrying too much...?"

|

"May I use you as a model?"

|

"Iroha-san, please do that later, de arimasu."

|

"Whatever, but you guys are talking way too much just for Hikari's part."

---

"It's nerve-wracking to talk about myself! Hikari Chosokabe! I'm a model, TV personality, and photographer! I'm wearing three hats like a Yatagarasu!"

|

"You don't look nervous at all... And I don't really get your sense of humor. I always wonder, how do you find the time to travel abroad and take photos?"

|

"That's a trade secret!"

|

"I see... Hikari, you run a company too, don't you?"

|

"That was just a figure of speech, Komori-san. My hobby is taking photos! Before I knew it, it became my job!"

|

"Photos are great. I like taking pictures of scenery too, so I kind of understand."

|

"Thank you, Minori-san! Why don't we go on an overseas trip together next time? As for my reason for moving in, I was interested in the conditions that seemed to accept anyone! Everyone is so nice, it's fun!"

"This is a photo from when I went on a trip with Minori-san!"

|

"Yes. I think it turned out well."

|

"Yes, but, um... I intended to take a candid shot of you walking happily, but before I knew it, you were looking right at the camera. And, somehow, your eyes..."

"Hehe."

---

"Let's start over! Please tell us your name and occupation!"

|

"Yes. Minori Kanata. My occupation is a part-timer. I have various experiences, so I don't hold a specific job."

|

"I see... I see. A free lifestyle! I admire that! Now, next is the reason for moving in!"

|

"Yes. My reason for moving in is that even if I keep switching jobs, I thought I needed a place to settle down."

|

"I... see? Thank you. So, what are your hobbies?"

|

"Traveling, I suppose. I often go abroad, and though I say so myself, I have a good eye for choosing souvenirs."

|

"That's true! The Gulab Jamun and Salsiccia you bought before were all things I'd love to eat again!"

---

"It's true those weren't words from the heart, but to have my doubts shown so openly. Is it because of her purity?"

"I asked to take this in front of Fengchi-san's restaurant! Her coolness really stands out!"

|

"Of course, aru. I am the lovely and beautiful Lady Fengchi, aru?"

|

"Right! But, but, I don't think ending sentences with 'aru' is trendy these days, so why don't we drop it?"

|

"Eh?"

---

"Ah, um... It's okay, Fengchi-san! You have plenty of personality!"

|

"No, um, it's fine now... Thanks for the backup, okay? ...Ahem. I am Fengchi. Ye Fengchi, aru. I am the owner of a Chinese restaurant, aru. It's a high-end place that puts ordinary neighborhood joints to shame, aru. I have restaurants all over the world, aru."

|

"Yes, thank you for the name and occupation! Next is the reason for moving in! Could you tell us?"

|

"For my end-of-life preparations, aru. I thought I wouldn't get bored in a lively and noisy place like this, aru."

|

"Oh, come on~. Fengchi-san, you're still so young!"

|

"That's why I keep telling you, I'm over 1400 years old, aru!"

|

"That's right! My apologies! Next is your hobby!"

|

"Are you listening!"

"...Are you listening, aru!? Honestly. My hobbies are moonbathing and yoga, aru."

|

"Yes, I heard you loud and clear! Rare polite speech! That's all the questions! Thank you very much!"

|

"Hikari-san!?"

"This is a shot of her just waking up in the morning!"

| "It was really a pain to get up then... Besides, there's no point in taking pictures of me..." |

"It's okay! Kanako-san, you're much more beautiful than someone like me!"

| "...I don't need flattery— 'I mean it from the bottom of my heart!' ...Thank you."

---

"Here, have this! It's orange juice."

| "Thanks. So, I guess it's name and occupation, right?" |

"Yes! If you're sleepy, I can interview someone else first..."

| "Yawn..."

"Ah, sorry, I'm okay now. I'm Kanako. Kanako Sendoji. Occupation? I'm a NEET. I dropped out of university."

|

"Yes, thank you! Next is the reason for moving in!"

|

"It's spacious and looked comfortable, that's... all."

|

"Are you still sleepy? Then have this candy! It's from Fengchi-san! Next, please tell us your hobby!"

| "Thank you..."

"So spicy!!"

|

"Wait!? Was it that spicy?"

|

"Don't compare me to your tolerance, Hikari-san! Um, my hobbies are games and reading. Mostly novels. Oh, speaking of novels, the trick in the mystery novel I read the other day was—"

---

My apologies! Due to time constraints, I have to cut this short!

"The one on the left is a photo I took, but the one on the right was actually drawn by Iroha-san herself! It looks just like the real thing!"

|

"I have to work hard to make sure it doesn't accidentally start moving, haha..."

|

"That's true! With your ability, Iroha-san, could you make another version of yourself?"

---

"My name is Iroha Isshiki. I'm still a trainee, but I'm aiming to be an art teacher."

|

"My question!?"

|

"I've finally gotten used to the flow. My reason for moving in is that when I checked the floor plan, there was somehow an atelier. It was an instant decision."

|

"Thank you for explaining your reason... Now, before I lose the chance, what's your hobby?"

|

"My hobby, though it might be unexpected, is muscle training. If I'm going to use muscle movement as a reference, I'm the closest model myself."

|

"Thank you! Then finally, please tell us about your ability, Iroha-san!"

|

"What happened to the 'forgetting profiles' talk...? This won't leave Ayasou, right? Actually, I can materialize things I draw. I don't want to spread it around, so please keep it a secret from the outside, okay?"

|

"It's okay! I'm used to that kind of thing because of my job!"

|

"It makes me nervous, but Hikari-san, you're surprisingly proper about these things."

"Am I last? I'm Megumi, my occupation is—"

"Hold it, Megumi-san! I'll ask the questions next! This photo is a shot in the Japanese-style room!"

|

"I'm sorry, de arimasu!"

---

"Once again, name and occupation, please!"

|

"Megumi Miroku. I'm an aspiring novelist and a part-time job warrior, de arimasu. My hobby is buying and eating Japanese sweets, de arimasu."

|

"Thank you! Next is the reason for moving in!"

|

"Ah, I got the order wrong again... The reason is that I wanted to live in peace, de arimasu. It might seem surprising, but I'm quite a klutz and have an unlucky constitution, de arimasu. That's why I wanted to live peacefully in a suspicious place where people wouldn't come, de arimasu."

|

"But seven people had already moved in before you, Megumi-san!"

|

"That's right, de arimasu... I only ever cause trouble for everyone."

|

"No, no! I don't mind at all!"

|

"I'm grateful to hear you say that, de arimasu."

---

"Thank you very much! With this, we conclude the video recording for the introductions and questions for the residents of Share House Ayasou! The rest is—"

"Huh? You're filming me too?"

|

"Yes! I wanted to add Sanae-san, who always takes care of us, to the album too!"

|

"...Well, fine. Is the wall of my house okay for a background?"

---

"So, you're asking me questions too. Not that I have anything unique like you guys. Sanae Senbonbachi. Occupation is manager of this share house. Well, it's not my main job. Hobby is visiting restaurants occasionally. Though I can't go to Fengchi's place much because it's too expensive."

|

"Ah!? The questions again!? And you said everything first!"

|

"Compared to your unique profiles, mine is too normal; it's boring to listen to, right?"

|

"That's not true! Sanae-san, you are also very charming and unique!"

|

"No, I'd really rather not be grouped with you lot... Oh, Sumire-chan is an exception. Also, I'm happy to hear that."

|

"A rare moment of sweetness! Thank you! Now, with this, we truly end the recording! Thank you very much!"

|

"I'm not being sweet. Thanks for watching this far."
