• Good Night Till It Be Morrow

Trivia

Etymology

• Romeo, along with all the characters in the Romeo and Juliet event series, is inspired by William Shakespeare's tragedy, Romeo and Juliet.
  • Unlike his SSR version, Juliet, and Paris (Event), who largely have Italian names for their skills, this version of Romeo uses a mixture of English and German.
• "Fom Dach" should properly be translated as "Vom Dach", which is a basic stance used with longswords. The term literally means "From Roof" in German.
• The English word "Palisade" refers to a wall of wooden stakes used as a defense.
• "Todesstoss", properly "Todesstoß", is German for "deathblow".

1	✔	Oh, that's right. It's your birthday today! What a wonderful day this is! As your friend and follower, I wish you the most joyous of birthdays!
2	✔	Happy birthday, (Captain). Thanks for letting me celebrate your birthday with you again. Hehe. I just had a thought. What if this is the happiness I was striving for? I want the citizens of Verona to experience the joy of celebrating birthdays in peace with their loved ones. Will you help me a little longer? I'm putting my faith in you, (Captain).
3	✔	So today's your birthday. Time does fly; it feels like only yesterday we celebrated your last birthday. You seem to be getting stronger every year. I'd best keep myself in top form as well. I'm so glad you have a goal and are moving closer to it each year. I'm looking forward to seeing what you'll become. Happy birthday again, (Captain). Let us overcome all adversity together.
4	✔	Happy birthday, (Captain)! This is the one day of the year, every year, in which I look back on our journey from the time we first met until now. Journeying with you is fulfilling in many ways. From new heart-pounding encounters to moments of peace shared with friends... The emotions in me shine as brightly as before, never fading even now. And I hope it stays that way. No matter in which direction I go from here... I'll proudly hold onto these treasured memories of our friendship and the subsequent adventures we embarked on. I'm so glad to have met you, (Captain), and I look forward to more days to come.
5	✔	Happy birthday, (Captain)! Our merry band of travelers has certainly grown since the first time we met. From kids to adults, we have all kinds of people onboard. Strong types, kind ones, chatterboxes, and bookworms. Regardless of how you used to be, you're growing into a competent, dignified leader. Some day I'll take the throne as Montague's king. When that day comes, I just hope I can be as beloved a leader as you are, (Captain). Well, your birthday party should be starting soon. As a proud member of your crew, I'll do my best to ensure you have a fun birthday!

Happy New Year Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Happy New Year. Juliet. The years may change, but my thoughts of you and my hope for Verona's reconstruction never will! I will return, my Juliet. Please wait just a little longer!
2	✔	Juliet... No matter where you are, how far you may be, for as long as we are under the same sky, I shall be with you again. Oh, how I long to be with Juliet once more... Hm? C-Captain! How long have you been standing there! I should just go meet her? N-no! I can't! How can I possibly face her with my work still undone! But thank you for the concern. It's good to know you're thinking of me.
3	✔	The first sunrise of the year... The clear skies today make it all the more beautiful. All of Verona should be watching the same sunrise we are. Juliet... How I wish I could spend this New Year's day with you. I know this is an important time right now, but I can't return just yet. Not until I grow to be someone I can be satisfied with. Wait for me just a while longer, my love. Until we meet, take comfort that we look upon the same sky.
4	✔	So this is osechi, a typical fare served during New Year's? What a veritable trove of ingredients, pleasing on the taste buds and the eyes. Furthermore, each type of food is a petition to bring good fortune throughout this year, correct? There are so many goodies to choose from... It's like a dish that tells a story. It was only through leaving Verona that I learned of this particular custom. Thus I expect Juliet to be unfamiliar with it, considering she is still in our homeland. Sigh... How I wish I could introduce her to this tasty delight.
5	✔	We like to set off firecrackers—or anything that makes a loud noise really—when a new year rolls around in Verona. I'll be honest though, I'm not really one for over-the-top celebrations. But the start of a new year is a special occasion, and I love seeing the city come to life with a bang. In fact I just purchased a few firecrackers from the Knickknack Shack. Care to set them off with me, (Captain)? Don't worry. I chose firecrackers that even children can handle. It's not like I want to make you jump out of your skin or anything.

Valentine's Day Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Are you giving this to me? I appreciate the sentiment, but what about Juliet... Why are you laughing? Hm? This is just proof of our friendship? I-I have no choice but to accept this then. Th-thank you.
2	✔	You didn't have to go through all the trouble of preparing chocolates for me again, (Captain). Hehe, I graciously accept. Huh? What do you mean these chocolates are genuine confections of affection? I have to take responsibility for accepting these? B-but I've already pledged my heart to Juliet! I do like you... I mean, as a friend... Um... What do you mean I have to take responsibility? Oh, you were joking! Aha, ahaha... That was evil, (Captain). But I guess you noticed my gloom and became worried about me. Thank you for always looking out for me, (Captain).
3	✔	These chocolates are for me? Why thank you, (Captain). Much appreciated. Haha. They're delicious. You make such good chocolates, whoever your Valentine is should know how lucky they are. Huh? I... I'm your Valentine? Ohh, no. You won't fool me with that again. (Captain)? Why won't you look at me? D-don't tell me you're serious! Wh-what should I do... What should I say... Hm? (Captain)? Are you... laughing? Ahh, you had me shocked for a moment there. Y-you can stop laughing now... But you did fool me twice, so shame on me. Haha. That's very nice of you to say. Thank you. I'm fine, really I'll enjoy the chocolates.
4	✔	How goes it, (Captain)? Er, are these Valentine's for— Ahem... By giving me this gift, does that mean you... That you want me to be your— Argh! I just can't pull it off! Sorry about that! Sigh... You're always teasing me, so I thought I'd give you a taste of your own medicine. But trying to do something you're not accustomed to is harder than it sounds... Do me a favor and forget this happened!
5	✔	Another year, another batch of chocolates, hm? I thank you as always. You're not going to like this, but as for this year, I won't fall for your teasing, nor will I play coy. I think it's important to be straight with one's feelings, so— Wait! Don't go! I'm sorry if I spoiled the mood. I'm just not that confident in knowing what to say, and I didn't want to— Huh? You're just messing with me, you say? So... you were only pretending to leave? Sigh... You really got me again... Your love of pranks gives Mercutio a run for his money. Anyway thank you for the chocolates. I can't wait to eat them.

White Day Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	I'm always grateful for what you do, (Captain). Please accept this as a token of my thanks. Well, I made it myself, and I'd appreciate it if you told me what you think as I'd like to send some to Juliet as well.
2	✔	(Captain)... Could I ask for your advice? How do you think I should give Juliet her White Day present? Hm? Have I gotten a Valentine's Day gift from her yet? Well, no... Not yet at least. But I thought it best to think about it for when the time comes. Wh-why're you laughing! Stop it! I'm being serious here! What? You'll help me practice? Th-thank you. All right, I'll start... Hm, I'm so nervous all of a sudden. Let me gather my composure and we'll start from the scene that we meet.
3	✔	Thank you for everything, (Captain). Here, take this. I arranged the toppings just the way you like it. Hm? What about Juliet? My feelings for her haven't changed at all of course. You're both important to me, though perhaps not in the same way. In what way exactly? Hmm... W-well, I didn't expect you to ask me on the spot like this. You're someone I respect. Regardless of all the talent you have, you refuse to rest on your laurels and continue to improve yourself. I hope you never change that about you. No shocking revelations there, I see? And Juliet? Well... It's somewhat embarrassing to say... D-don't laugh at me! At any rate, you're both irreplaceable to me. Let's just leave it at that. I hope you enjoy the sweets.
4	✔	(Captain), happy White Day! 'This another year where I express to you my thanks. I hope you will accept these from me. ... This year, I'll refrain from asking about how Juliet's doing. Recently I've come to a realization. Talking to you about Juliet is certainly awkward... But at the same time quite enjoyable. Oh, sorry! That almost sounded like I was about to go on about Juliet, didn't it?
5	✔	I'd like you to have these chocolates as a way of saying thank you for the ones you gave me on Valentine's Day. Yes, I also sent some to Juliet, complete with a poem. Er... I-I'm sorry, but I can't tell you what I wrote! What! You're not going to take the chocolates unless I recite it to you? Okay, okay. But only a few verses! I wake from a dream with a yawn, catching the first light of wintery dawn. The painted sky matches the color of my beloved's eyes. What more can be done to tell you how I feel? If only I could capture that pure sky and present it to you in a jewel. Dearest Juliet, forever will my love burn for you. Eagerly I wait to see again the girl I once knew. Um, is that good enough? Please just take the chocolates already!

Trick or Treat Cutscenes

1	✔	Tonight is not just an occasion for receiving sweets. It is also the day when the souls of the departed return from the land of the dead. Oh, dearest Mercutio, will you return as well?
2	✔	It's that time of year again. Time flies, as they say. Mercutio would be laughing at me if he saw me crying all the time. Mercutio, Father... I'll show you what a great lord I'll become. So please watch over me.
3	✔	Halloween night. They say this is when the souls of those passed return to visit. But we can't see or touch them. They used to be our loved ones, and now... Hm? Though we can't see them, we can still believe in them? Mm, yes, you're right. They're watching us; we should show them our very best. All right. On to the party we go then. We'll show Mercutio and the others our joy!
4	✔	Do you see those costumed children over there, (Captain)? Haha, see how happy they are? Sure looks like they're having fun. When I was a tot, I got yelled at for tearing down some castle curtains to use in a costume. It was all Mercutio's idea. The plan was to drape the white curtains over ourselves and go around scaring people as ghosts... Sigh, I wouldn't mind being haunted by him if that meant I got to see him again.
5	✔	Happy Halloween! So an interesting thing happened to me today. There was this costumed child who played a prank on me. It took me by surprise because it was the same prank Mercutio played on me back in the day. I wonder if he came back as a ghost just to tell that child how to do it. Hahaha. Well, in any case that's just me being sentimental. The people over there seem to be having a blast, so I thought I'd go check it out. It's fun to have pranks pulled on you now and then. That's the sort of mood today brings out, I guess.

Happy Holidays Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Today is truly a most blessed day. (Captain), are you all right spending it in a place like this? You want to spend the holiday with me? Very well, then! Let us talk about our everlasting friendship.
2	✔	On a most holy night, under the warm fire's light, two share a moment of joy. Joined by the bond of their care for each other. Okay, time to call it a day. Aaah! (Captain)! How long have you been standing behind me? N-nothing! I'm not writing anything special! Just a diary of sorts! N-no, I'm afraid I can't show it to you right now! It's a diary after all! Can't be showing that to everyone now can we! Ah! Yes, the party! I'd better go get ready! See you there! (Whew, that was a close one. It's still not ready. It needs a lot of work before I can show it to anyone.)
3	✔	The winds of winter night whisper to me... Let us alight. The time has come. To new skies we go! (Captain)! I'm sorry; I hope I didn't disturb you. I was reading a play and got carried away. It's a play enjoyed by all ages. In my younger days I saw it with my family a number of times. I remember it like it was yesterday. What a beautiful performance it was. The first time I ever saw it, it moved me to my very core. And ever since I've been an admirer of this play. I've been a patron of many a performance, but this one truly stands out from the rest. Hm? You'd like to see it? Then please, allow me to perform it for you. It'd be much more interesting that way.
4	✔	Have a look at this snowfall, (Captain)! ... These snowflakes dance in the night sky like white flower petals. And the way the street's lights filter through it all... There's no other word for it but breathtaking! Yet they are petals that disappear at a touch. Beauty is fleeting— Achoo! Haha, whoops. Obviously it's quite cold out. Let's go inside. There's a party waiting for us.
5	✔	You can go anywhere on this ship and still feel the warmth of the holiday spirit. It's great. Maybe it's just me, but whenever I hear the joy in someone's voice, I feel this swell of emotion in my chest. Exuberant conversations take place by snow-covered windows, in contrast to quiet toasts shared between intimate friends. The gentle glow of calming candles blankets us all. A symphony of colors drapes across rows of evergreen, serenaded by instruments that sing like a joyous chorus. My heart leaps out to join in dance, and— Whoa! What's gotten into me? Er, I was just reciting a verse from an old play! There's no way I could ever improvise something like that on the spot! Anyway, the party is about to start. Let's not keep everyone waiting.

Star-Cross'd Lovers

The party go to visit Lord Montague of the fortress city of Verona. Not having permission to enter the city, they are chased by the guards. Luckily, they are saved by a soldier named Romeo. (Captain) and the crew learn of the feud tearing the city of Verona in two, and are taken to Verona Cathedral.

---

The crew pays a visit to the Montague district of Verona.

However, they are stopped at a checkpoint known as the Breach in the Wall for not having the appropriate entry permits.

A member of the Montague military by the name of Romeo leads them away.

Vyrn: All right. So where are you taking us?

Romeo: Verona Cathedral. That's where you'll be able to get permission to enter the city.

Lyria: Really? Thank you very much!

Mercutio: You're really lucky to have run into us, you know.

Vyrn: But why did you even help us in the first place?

Romeo: Oh, I don't know. No reason that I can think of.

Mercutio: Get a load of Mr. Cool over here. He was definitely mulling it over in that head of his though.

Lyria: Is that so?

Mercutio: No ones knows how this guy's brain works better than I do.

Romeo: Give it a rest, Mercutio.

Mercutio: I'm just telling the truth, Romeo.

Vyrn: Okay, okay. No need to get all heated over this.

Romeo: Don't worry. We're always like this.

Mercutio: Yep. We razz each other a lot, but it's all right 'cause we're buddies.

Lyria: Heehee, I can see how well you two get along. It's almost as if you could finish each other's sentences.

Mercutio: Right? It only looks like we're fighting.

Mercutio: Romeo didn't help you out on a whim. He had a feeling about you guys.

Romeo: Sigh. Does this conversation really need to drag on?

Mercutio: What? These lovely people seemed interested in knowing more is all.

Romeo: No, I'm pretty sure you're the one who's the most interested.

Romeo shrugs with resignation and explains his actions.

Romeo: I wouldn't call it a reason necessarily.

Romeo: If you had tried to force your way in at the Breach, things would've gotten messy.

Romeo: But I know now you wouldn't have tried that. You were innocent all along. That's all.

Vyrn: Wow, you really thought about all that when we were at the checkpoint?

Vyrn: Well, I guess we did kick up a bit of a fuss. Sorry about that!

Romeo: No, I'm the one who should apologize. You kind of came at a time when the whole town's on edge.

Lyria: I'm still glad you decided to trust us. Right, (Captain)?

Romeo: In any case you people are blameless. The real problem is that wall...

Romeo cranes his head upward at the towering structure.

Romeo: Walls only divide the people, sowing discord and chaos.

Vyrn: But the bigwigs in this country still built 'em anyway.

Romeo: Yes. This wall was erected eleven years ago after we experienced a war.

Lyria: What kind of war?

Romeo: A war with the neighboring Capulets over the right to rule.

Romeo: It's been tense between Montagues and Capulets ever since.

Romeo: We've tried to strengthen relations, but occasional outbreaks of violence still happen.

Mercutio: And that's why it's up to us Montague city guards to make sure those Capulets don't stir up trouble!

Vyrn: It must be tough knowing a fight's always just around the corner...

Mercutio: Well, my stress is nothing compared to Romeo's.

Vyrn: Oh yeah, you guys are commanders. That ain't easy.

Romeo: No, I'm just a regular. Mercutio is a commanding officer.

Vyrn: Huh... I don't get any authority vibes from him though.

Lyria: Me neither. Didn't one of the guards call you a prince, Romeo?

Mercutio: Oho, good ears! We just met, but I'll spill the beans.

Romeo: That's enough, Mercutio.

Mercutio ignores Romeo and continues.

Mercutio: He might not look like it, but Romeo's actually the heir to the Montague throne!

Vyrn: Ooh... So that means—

Lyria: That means he's going to be the ruler?

Vyrn: Whoaaa!

Mercutio: Bingo! Now that's the reaction I was looking for!

Romeo: Don't speak carelessly, Mercutio. How many times do I have to tell you that?

Mercutio: Sure, but you trust these guys, don't you?

Romeo: That's not the point.

Vyrn: Um... If you're the future ruler, then why are you just a regular guard?

Mercutio: Haha! That's the million-rupie question! It's Romeo being Romeo, you see.

Mercutio: Get this. He told me that in order to command an army, you've got to understand what it's like for each and every soldier.

Romeo: I told you to stop, Mercutio.

Mercutio: Even though his father wanted to thrust him into a commanding role, Romeo stood by his convictions and joined the ranks.

Mercutio: But from the soldiers' point of view, how are you going to do your job when the boss is right there with you?

Vyrn: Yeah, I'd be super nervous all the time...

Mercutio: And his personality really didn't help either. The troops were on edge.

Mercutio: So he came to me and asked me to take the leadership role above him.

Mercutio: I'm just doing this as a favor, you know. I'm not really the leader type.

Romeo: I don't remember asking you as such.

Mercutio: He hates it when I call him Prince Romeo by accident.

Romeo: Whatever... I'm done talking to you.

Mercutio: Yeah? In that case I've got lots of juicy secrets to share.

Mercutio: You'd never guess it by looking at him, but Romeo's into—

Romeo: Stop! That's absolutely off-limits! You say anymore, and I'll really get angry!

Lyria: Uh-oh, they're fighting again, aren't they, (Captain)?

Vyrn: Eh, I guess. Fights can be healthy for a relationship though.

Mercutio: My thoughts exactly! But he can get pretty scary sometimes...

Mercutio: So I think I'll just leave him be for now.

Romeo: Hey. Mercutio.

Mercutio: You rang?

Romeo: We're almost there. Cut the chatter and get over here.

Thanks to the guidance of Romeo and Mercutio, the crew soon arrives at Verona Cathedral.

Back to top

The World Is Our Stage

After receiving an invitation from Juliet to see a public performance of a theatrical troupe, (Captain) and the crew find themselves visiting Montague territory. They decide to explore the stalls while they wait for their rendezvous with Juliet. It is there, at the busy square, that they encounter a group of hooligans planning to abduct Juliet.

---

Some time has passed since Romeo joined the crew.

One day a letter from Juliet invites them to see a play in Verona.

The central plaza of Montague is bustling thanks to the arrival of the theater ship.

Romeo: The Fortune Theater isn't as storied as the Globe, but Juliet and I are quite partial to it.

Romeo: We've returned many, many times.

Vyrn: Hmm... You don't get bored watching the same thing over and over again?

Romeo: Nope. That's because theater is alive.

Romeo: Depending on the directors, performers, and other factors, a play can take many different forms.

Lyria: I see! I'm learning lots today!

Romeo: Juliet and I can recite entire scripts from memory. We're fervent fans.

Romeo: And it's only natural that we've developed a sharp eye.

Vyrn: Haha! You two will be hard to please!

Romeo: Heh. That may be the case.

Romeo: There's still time before we meet Juliet. Why don't we check out some stalls?

Lyria: Ooh, yes! Let's go, (Captain)!

At the same time a woman accompanied by two men looks around the bustling plaza.

???: Take a good look around, you two!

???: Tonight we say good-bye to the life we're used to.

Angry-Looking Man: Do you really think they're going to show up in this crowd? I'm not so sure anymore...

Thickset Man: I'm hungry, Rosaline...

Rosaline: What? You just pigged out a moment ago!

Heavyset Man: But... I'm hungry again... I can't go on...

Rosaline: Tch. Fine, I'll go get you something. Just wait over there and don't do anything stupid!

Rosaline heads for the food stands.

Vyrn: How can candy apple be this delicious?

Lyria: Nothing beats these chocolate-covered bananas! They're so sweet!

Romeo: Hehe, I'm glad you're enjoying yourselves.

At that moment Rosaline and Romeo accidentally bump into each other.

Rosaline: Watch where you're going, dimwit!

Romeo: I'm sorry. Are you all right? Oh no!

Romeo notices the corn-on-the-cob that Rosaline had dropped because of their collision.

Romeo apologizes profusely and buys another one for Rosaline.

Romeo: Please take this as a token of my apology.

Rosaline: F-fine, don't make a big deal out of it!

Romeo: As an additional sign of penance, I offer you this as well.

Romeo hands Rosaline a stick of cotton candy.

Rosaline: R-right... Thanks!

Rosaline leaves in a hurry.

She returns to her companions bearing the two snacks.

Thickset Man: Thanks, Rosaline.

The heavyset man reaches for the corn and the cotton candy.

Rosaline: Hands off! This one's mine!

Rosaline pulls the cotton candy close to her chest, shielding it with her arms.

Angry-Looking Man: Target sighted. And she's got a huge entourage with her...

Angry-Looking Man: Get into your positions, you two.

Rosaline: Got it!

Thickset Man: Wait... for me...

Rosaline heads off to mark the target.

Juliet: My dear Romeo, what do you have there?

Romeo: Why, it's a fluffy expression of my restless heart.

Juliet: Hee hee...

Juliet giggles as she receives the cotton candy.

Standing with her is the man who had also given Rosaline some cotton candy not so long ago.

Even from a distance it's clear that these two are deeply in love with each other.

Rosaline: Humph... I'm such an idiot...

Rosaline throws her cotton candy into the trash.

Rosaline: Let's move out!

A group of street punks suddenly confronts the crew.

Lyria: Eek! Oh no... my chocolate banana...

Thickset Man: S-sorr—

Angry-Looking Man: Stop that! What're you apologizing for?

Thickset Man: S-sorr—

Angry-Looking Man: Shut up! Hey kiddos, I got nothing against ya, but care to entertain us for a bit?

Thickset Man: H-here I come! Come on, guys!

Hired Thugs: ...!

Vyrn: What a buncha weirdos...

Romeo: Yes, but it looks like they mean business. Stand firm, (Captain)!

The World Is Our Stage: Scene 2

Romeo and the crew scatter the ruffians, but Juliet is abducted amid the scuffle. The crew corners the kidnapper, who turns out to be the woman Romeo had bumped into earlier at the food stands.

---

Angry-Looking Man: Ugh... These people fight like monsters...

Angry-Looking Man: We've got no choice. Fall back!

Thickset Man: W-wait for meee!

Outmatched, the ruffians make a run for it.

Vyrn: Get back here, you punks!

Romeo: Wait!

Romeo comes to the realization that Juliet is no longer with them.

From the corner of his eye he spots a shadowy figure dragging Juliet away.

Romeo: Over there! After her!

Lyria: That woman is kidnapping Juliet?

Juliet, who has been knocked out from a sleeping potion, is being carried away over the woman's shoulder. The crew chases close behind.

Rosaline: Argh! Those good for nothing louts can't even do a simple task!

Vyrn: Hey! Someone stop that woman!

Romeo: That won't do.

Romeo: Listen up, citizens! I, Romeo, offer a reward to anyone who captures that woman!

Townsperson 1: Huh? Is that Romeo?

Townsperson 2: Whoa, did you hear that? We'll get a reward if we stop her!

Romeo's words rouse the crowd into action. They quickly block off Rosaline's escape route.

Rosaline: No!

Rosaline makes a sudden turn and runs to the only option she has left.

Vyrn: Ack! She ran into the theater ship!

Romeo: You won't get away from me!

Rosaline runs from room to room in desperation, knocking down anyone who gets in her way.

Rosaline: Move, move, move! Anyone who doesn't get outta my way is gonna get hurt!

The crew eventually corners Rosaline in the dressing room.

Rosaline: Damn! I was so close...

Romeo: You're that woman from before...

Rosaline: I'm flattered you remember me!

Romeo: ...

Rosaline: Come any closer and the princess gets it!

Romeo: Stop this farce. If you were going to kill her, you would've done it already.

Rosaline: Heh... You got me there. It's all your fault. You ruined everything...

Romeo: I beg you to please release Juliet and surrender.

Rosaline: What if I say no?

Romeo: Then I will do everything in my power to stop you.

Rosaline: You piss me off.

Rosaline: After coming this far, do you really think I can just say sorry?

Romeo: Stop! Don't hurt her!

Rosaline: Idiot. I wouldn't hurt a lady.

Rosaline: Does it bother you so much, Prince Charming? Then kill me and rescue her yourself!

The moment Rosaline finishes shouting some men force their way in with a crash.

Thickset Man: W-wait! Stop!

Vyrn: It's those weirdos from before!

Angry-Looking Man: Tch... What are you doing, Rosaline? We gotta get outta here!

Rosaline: You guys... What are you doing here?

Angry-Looking Man: He insisted on it.

Thickset Man: Y-yeah, but...

Rosaline: Geez... How foolish. That includes you guys too.

Thickset Man: Hey, Prince! You're gonna have to go through us!

Hired Thugs: ...!

The World Is Our Stage: Scene 3

Juliet is safely rescued from her kidnappers, but two lead actors of that night's play are injured in the commotion. Romeo and Juliet fill in for them, providing a spectacular performance that will be remembered for a long time to come.

---

Angry-Looking Man: Huff... You guys are tough...

Thickset Man: Urgh... Sorr—

Rosaline: Enough. We surrender. Do what you want with us.

Juliet is rescued safe and sound.

Rosaline and her group are handed over to the guards on kidnapping charges.

Romeo: Juliet!

Juliet: Romeo? I...

The crew explains what happened to Juliet.

Juliet: Did that really happen? I'm sorry for causing everyone so much trouble.

Romeo: No. It was my fault for not being more vigilant...

There's a knock at the door, and the theater director walks in.

Theater Director: Sigh... This won't do at all...

Lyria: What happened?

Theater Director: Oh, as if you didn't know!

Theater Director: Thanks to the ruckus you people raised, our two stars are hurt, and the show's about to start!

Vyrn: No way! Don't you have any stand-ins?

Theater Director: The curtain's about to go up! I don't have time to look!

Juliet blames herself for the commotion and apologizes.

Juliet: I will compensate your theater for any losses caused by the play's cancellation.

Theater Director: Pfft! I don't care if you're a princess or whatever, but that's not the problem here!

Theater Director: We're traveling performers, not traveling no-shows. What purpose do we have if we can't entertain tonight's audience?

Romeo: I'm sorry. This is my fault as well.

Theater Director: I have to think of a way to ask the audience to leave without angering them.

Juliet: If there's anything I can do to help, please don't hesitate to ask!

Romeo: Yes. I too will do what I can.

Juliet: Oh? What's that?

Juliet spies the script in the director's hands.

Juliet: Excuse me, but may I please see that script?

Theater Director: Hm? Sure, have at it.

The puzzled director hands the script over to Juliet.

Juliet: It couldn't be... Are we aboard the Fortune Theater?

Theater Director: Have you gone daft? Of course we are!

Juliet: Oh my... How wonderful!

Juliet: I can't believe it... I'm standing in the dressing room of the Fortune Theater!

Juliet: Look around, Romeo! We are in the Fortune Theater!

Romeo: Yes... So we are, Juliet.

Juliet, in high spirits, starts reciting from memory the lines of that night's play.

Romeo, without missing a beat, follows her lead, matching her word for word.

Theater Director: ...

Lyria: Wow!

Vyrn: Bravo...

The crew watches in awe while the two performers become lost in their own world.

Juliet: Oh my! I'm sorry for getting carried away at a time like this!

Romeo: My apologies. Before I knew it, my mouth was running on its own!

Theater Director: Hmm... I believe you two told me you'd do anything to help, am I right?

Moments later (Captain), Lyria, and Vyrn find their seats among the rest of the audience. They can hardly contain their jitters.

Lyria: (Romeo. Juliet. Break a leg!)

Vyrn: (This tension can't be good for my heart.)

The stage is set, and the curtain rises. Though the tension is palpable, Romeo and Juliet launch into their dialogue.

Not a breath from the audience can be heard as the play moves from exposition to climax. All eyes are focused on the drama before them.

And after the final line is uttered, the lights grow dim, and the curtain silently falls.

A deafening silence looms in the auditorium before the audience finally snaps back to reality. Rousing cheers and praise shake the airship.

Romeo: Incredible... To think my day on the stage would finally come!

Juliet: Yes. One of my dreams came true today!

Romeo: One of your dreams? What else do you dream of?

Juliet: Our promise. Did you forget?

Romeo: Oh... Of course not.

Romeo and Juliet share a look of contentment as they're called back for the curtain call.

Their reunion under the bright lights is one befitting of center stage.
