Tiphereth vs. Oswald (Stage: 70005) Location: The Library – Floor of Natural Sciences Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) Sniff, sniff… This place has an unfamiliar scent in the air, hmm? Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_1" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) Ah! Down there is… a river that looks like a very large stream containing blueberries and juiced mountain snake berries… Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_2" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) An olfactory mixture of mint and clove… would make a stingy scent like this! Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_3" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) This stage has a blindingly sparkly rust, a stark contrast from ours! Splendid! Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_4" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) I couldn’t ask for a better place to prepare for a grandiose performance. Don’t you think so, Mr. Knife?! Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_5" Tiphereth (Patron Librarian - Nat. Sciences) What a noisy guest. Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Tiphereth_1" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) Oh, two yikeses and a half! My heart almost popped out of my eyehole! Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_6" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) Are you an audience? Just a guest? Or maybe a fellow clown to help out with the show?! I’m taking a second look, and there’s more of you! Are you guys a matryoshka doll in secret? Mm, let’s see~ One, two… Eee, too many to count! Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_7" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) Ah, now just one moment! Take a look at this! Ms. Mermaid is lifting her microphone high in excitement~ Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_8" Tiphereth (Patron Librarian - Nat. Sciences) You’re getting nowhere with your frantic speech, so could you please stick to one topic at a time? And you’d be the guest here if we’re being pedantic. Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Tiphereth_2" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) A clown can’t be in charge of producing his own show, you know? Hahaha! That’s showbiz to you, miss! Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_9" Tiphereth (Patron Librarian - Nat. Sciences) I don’t get what’s so funny… Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Tiphereth_3" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) Now, now~ Why don’t we sniff each other’s wrists in a true fashion of clown-to-clown communication ritual? I wore a whiff of peppery scent today! Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_10" Tiphereth (Patron Librarian - Nat. Sciences) W—wait! You startled me! Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Tiphereth_4" Tiphereth (Patron Librarian - Nat. Sciences) It’s rude to stick your face into others without asking… Do you understand? Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Tiphereth_5" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) Nyeh… How cold! People these days are waaay too stuck up! Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_11" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) We’re entering a moist era where laughter runs dry! People get so easily upset over tiny things. Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_12" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) Sob, sob, woe is me… If a clown can’t be filled with laughter, they’ll flop like a deflated balloon… Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_13" Tiphereth (Patron Librarian - Nat. Sciences) Anger is a natural human emotion, though. Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Tiphereth_6" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) IT’S NOT NATURAL!!! Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_14" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) Only those who carry some kind of hopes and dreams make such stinky candies~ Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_15" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) Expectations for a bar of chocolate, a hamster, objects, the weather, other people… and for themselves. Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_16" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) They arbitrarily entertain the expectations and make the candies without even getting a nod from the one they have their hopes on, and won’t even eat their candies themselves! Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_17" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) Because they know that their own candies taste awful. Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_18" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) So iiiiinstead! They put them in the mouths of others. Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_19" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) More expectations means more foul-smelling candies~ They hold those balls of stench in their arms, looking to shove them in someone else’s stomach! Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_20" Tiphereth (Patron Librarian - Nat. Sciences) Then… How is one supposed to live a life without any expectations? Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Tiphereth_7" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) Did a blade of grass ask for you to have them? Did the gentle sun allow you to have them? Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_21" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) Who in the world told you that it’s right to hold expectations? Hahaha! That tingles my mouth almost as much as a celery leaf does! Oh, how hilarious!!! Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_22" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) When you don’t hold expectations~ You get to see more eyesores! Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_23" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) When you don’t have anger, you get to enjoy zestier and bitterer flavors~ Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_24" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) Treat everything like a rolling ball! You cheer for it wherever the sphere decides to go! Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_25" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) If you truly wish for the good of other people, why don’t you stop holding expectations… and just laugh with them at their side? Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_26" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) Everyone who lives here is a clown! Clowns can’t survive without feeding on each other’s smiles, you see? Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_27" Tiphereth (Patron Librarian - Nat. Sciences) …I see your point. Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Tiphereth_8" Tiphereth (Patron Librarian - Nat. Sciences) You’re right. Holding expectations for someone isn’t always a good thing for them. Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Tiphereth_9" Tiphereth (Patron Librarian - Nat. Sciences) While I can’t fully agree with your opinions, I admit that there are parts that I can’t completely disregard. Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Tiphereth_10" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) Ohohoh! I just want to make a world full of laughter! One where everybody can laugh without a care!!! Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_28" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) Frowny faces are just too scary~ Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_29" Tiphereth (Patron Librarian - Nat. Sciences) However, to hold expectations is to trust that person. Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Tiphereth_11" Tiphereth (Patron Librarian - Nat. Sciences) You’re simply running from the fear of failing to meet the expectations of others. Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Tiphereth_12" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) Haha! Hahaha! Am I? Is it a crime to wish for happiness?! Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_30" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) Since when was it a bad thing to wish for a world where all people can laugh? Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_31" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) Hmph, whatever! I guess we have different kinds of laughters we want to display in our shows as performers! Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_32" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) You’re no different from us folks in that you run a show hoping to make people smile the smile you want to see! Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_33" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) Let’s begin the performance to make another clown laugh!!! Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_34" Oswald (The 8 o’Clock Ringmaster) That’s enough introduction… Shall we begin playing on the tongue now? Hahaha! Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Oswald_35" Tiphereth (Patron Librarian - Nat. Sciences) Yeah. In your language, we have to fight to protect the stages we stand on. Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_TO_Tiphereth_13"
