Rui

Listen

Okay, this seems like a good place to end for today.
4

Asahi

Listen

Alright, everyone, nice work today!
5

Tsukasa

Listen

Nice work!
6

Tsukasa

Listen

(That last scene didn't go the way I'd hoped.)
7

Tsukasa

Listen

(I'm definitely still having trouble gauging just how much human expression I'm supposed to be using...)
8

Tsukasa

Listen

“Understood. Please excuse my insolence.”
9

Tsukasa

Listen

Hmm... No, that isn't right either...
I'm giving a quick response like I should, but I need to hold back my emotions less.

Tsukasa☆
11

Nene

Listen

Nice work today.
About the last scene we just did...
12

Tsukasa

Listen

“Understood. Please excuse my insolence.”
13

Tsukasa

Listen

No, now I'm emoting a bit too much.
14

Tsukasa

Listen

However, this is the scene where he decides to speak to Sergeant Willis after seeing her at odds with herself. I doubt he's going to be completely devoid of emotions...
15

Emu

Listen

Yup yup! I agree!
16

Nene

Listen

Same. I know it's not easy, but I think you should be a little more expressive.
17

Tsukasa

Listen

I had a feeling...
But you're right. Let's try to... Wait, Emu?! Nene?!
18

Emu

Listen

Hehe. You finally noticed!
19

Tsukasa

Listen

How long have you two been here?
Also, were you listening to everything I said just now?!
20

Nene

Listen

Hold on. You really didn't think anyone else would hear...?
21

Rui

Listen

Hehe. For a conversation that you thought you were having with yourself, it was very audible.
22

Tsukasa

Listen

What?! Rui?! Asahi?! You're also here?!
23

Asahi

Listen

I know how you feel. I also had trouble getting a good grasp of that part.
24

Tsukasa

Listen

You too, Asahi?
25

Asahi

Listen

Yes. It's so difficult to gauge how much of which emotions to use...
26

Asahi

Listen

Which in turn changes the image of how I envision Bartlett speaking and behaving in the later scenes.
27

Rui

Listen

You did seem to deliberately act more robotically there towards the end.
28

Asahi

Listen

He's being reprogrammed by the military, so it seemed appropriate to show how his humanity is being chipped away.
29

Asahi

Listen

However, despite slowly losing his humanity, something seems to linger and persist within Bartlett.
30

Asahi

Listen

That something is what I believe caused Bartlett to say what he does to Sergeant Willis.
31

Tsukasa

Listen

Something lingering inside him...
How that scene is portrayed may vary greatly depending on what that actually is...
32

Asahi

Listen

It's just my interpretation, but I hope that helps.
33

Tsukasa

Listen

Yes, very!
34

Tsukasa

Listen

I'll take that into account while thinking more about this scene. And I'll return tomorrow ready to give a better performance!
35

Asahi

Listen

That's great! I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with!
36

Tsukasa

Listen

Thank you very much!
I promise to find an answer that I feel is satisfactory!
37

Nene

Listen

Hey, don't forget to tell me too.
I'm the one who has to do that scene with you.
38

Tsukasa

Listen

Ah, I won't! Don't worry!
39

Tsukasa

Listen

(Strange... I wasn't able to give my best performance today, but I feel fantastic.)
40

Tsukasa

Listen

(This is completely different from what I went through when trying to play Thorpe. Maybe it's because I'm not as lost as I was that time.)
41

Tsukasa

Listen

(It's as if each of my experiences is guiding me and telling me what to do...)
42

Tsukasa

Listen

Anyway, I'll be going now!
See you all tomorrow!

Asahi

Listen

He really is interesting...
And such a conscientious actor.

Rui

Listen

Yes, he is.
