Auld Lanxiety - Chapter 1: Encore, Encore! - Episode 4
Anthuria awakes in (Captain)'s arms. Remembering her behavior under the influence of the Kleshas, she runs off mortified. As the Divine Generals ponder the source of all the negative emotions, Zooey appears.
Anthuria: Hhnnn...
The barrier cast by the four Divine Generals banishes Raga from the area. Anthuria and her audience slump to the ground, unconscious.
(Captain) catches Anthuria as she crumples.
Vajra: Phew. That should bring everyone back to their senses.
Anila: Don't worry. They should only be out for a moment.
Andira: Did you see that flawless teamwork, (Captain)? Weren't we something?
Lyria: You really were! Everything got all sparkly, and then it was like fwoosh!
Lyria: Your barrier was amazing!
Vyrn: You're not guardians for nothing! With you four around, we won't have to worry about those Kleshas for long!
Andira: Hehehe! I know, right?
Anila: Your faith in us is flattering, but we can't simply go around casting barriers all the time.
Vyrn: You can't?
Mahira: Creating a barrier requires a person's full strength, so maintaining one for long periods is physically and mentally draining.
Mahira: The efficacy of the barrier varies depending on how many generals there are to power it and on the area the barrier covers.
Vyrn: Huh.
Anila: Heh heh heh. That said, I was impressed with your performance, Andira, Mahira, Vajra.
Vajra: Really? Hahaha! Guess all that training Gar and I have been doing is paying off!
Vajra: But wow... Serving as year spirit has really polished each of your skills! I'm impressed!
Vajra: And I thought a ticked-off Anila was scary before. Right, Gar?
Anila: Humph...
Did you say something, Vajra?
Did you say something, Vajra?
Andira: Come on, Rara. Stop teasing Anila!
Garjana: ...
Garjana gives Anila's palm a quick lick.
Anila: Hm?
I suppose I'll let it slide for Garjana's sake.
I suppose I'll let it slide for Garjana's sake.
Anila: Heh heh... He's so warm and cozy. He reminds me of the kotatsu.
Anila: What a fine figure of a dog! Come here, you...
Garjana: ...
Andira: Don't leave me out! I wanna cuddle him too!
Andira drapes herself over Garjana and gives his ears a vigorous ruffling.
Andira: Hehehe! You're like a furry hot-water bottle. Who's a good boy? Who's my good boy?
Vajra: You've really got a thing for Gar's ears, don't you?
Andira: That's just how I say hello! His ears are so floppy, they're irresistible!
Mahira: And they're so silky. I just wanna pet them all day.
Vajra: Hahaha!
Gar loves all this attention!
Gar loves all this attention!
Garjana: ...
To show his appreciation, Garjana licks each of the generals' hands in turn.
Lyria: Hee hee. Gar really is adorable.
Anthuria: Nn...
Anthuria: What... What am I doing here?
Mahira: Oh, you're awake. How do you feel?
Anthuria: Huh? I...
Anthuria awakes to the sensation of warmth against her back. She blinks muzzily at the situation around her.
She spots (Captain) peering at her worriedly... from very, very close up.
Anthuria: Meep!
Anthuria: Wait, wait, what? Wh-what am I doing in your arms!
Anthuria leaps to her feet, blushing furiously.
Anthuria: I don't... What was I just...
Memories of her actions under the influence of Raga come rushing back.
Anthuria is a crew member
Anthuria: Just say the word, gong, and I'll make all your dreams come true.
Anthuria not in crew
Anthuria: Such warm hands...
Anthuria: And I think I feel a chill coming on... Maybe you could help me with that, gong...

Anthuria: Th-that... wasn't me!
Anthuria: You have to believe me, I...
Anthuria: Don't look at me!
Vyrn: Hey, easy, Fire Girl!
Andira: Oh dear. There she goes.
Anila: The powerful desires that took hold of Anthuria... Do you think those were...
Mahira: The work of the most wanted bell in the skies? Yes.
Andira: I think so too. Must be.
Vajra: Yeah, that was no ordinary case of fandom furor. Something supernatural was definitely involved.
Andira: We still don't know where the Joya is, though, do we?
???: I may be able to help you there.
Mahira: Huh?
Lyria: That aura...
Vajra: Ack, it's too bright! What's going on?
Zooey: Anila, Andira, Mahira, Vajra.
Anila: Yes?
Andira: Huh?
Mahira: Hm?
Vajra: Yeah?
Zooey: I've been looking for you.
Zooey: I need your help. I need your power to banish Kleshas.
