Accessible from the “Stories by Student > [Any of the Characters Involved] > Other” tab in Ensemble Girls! Memories.
Despite the title, the story doesn’t have anything to do with anyone’s underpants.
While waiting for Himeno doing class duty, Azusa fell asleep and saw a nostalgic dream, of a memory from two years in the past. Short story telling what happened the evening after the events of “Door to Paradise”.
Once Upon a Pants
Part 1
> Classroom
Himeno: “Azusa-chaaan~♪
I’m done with class duty! Sorry to keep you waiting…
As promised, since we don’t have club today let’s drop by somew… huh?”
Azusa: “… ♪”
Himeno: “Azusa-chan fell asleep.
I guess I kept her waiting too long. She has such an adorable sleeping face… ♪
Ehehe ♪ She seems so happy. I wonder what dream she’s having…?”
Azusa: “… ♪”
> Food Court
Suzu: “Wake up. Hey, wake up.
H-Huh? Guys, she’s alive, right? S-She’s not dead, is she…?
W-W-W-What should we do?
She seems like a frail girl — what if she had a heart attack from all the racket?”
Yako: “As if. Use your head a bit and you can tell she’s not dead.
Aah~ All this sodium, just the stuff for a tired body! ♪
And sugar, too. My brain cells and body are coming back to life!
So girls, what kind of festivities should we be spreading next? Ahahahaha! ☆”
Suzu: “Isn’t it enough already…?
Let’s keep a low profile for a bit! I think we’ve caught the bad sort of attention from the student council and the teachers…
If we stay like this — forget getting suspended, we’re all going to get kicked out of school!
Aah, God, forgive me! Your child has strayed from the path!”
Yako: “Suck it with your praying, what the hell has your God ever done for us?
Argh, you piss me off. Why don’t I suck those annoying bangs of yours with this straw, huh!?”
Suzu: “Stop that~ Auau…
W-Why does Konan-san keep bullying people in ways no one would normally think of?”
Yako: “This ain’t bullying! It’s a show of real fresh inspiration, so unique the mass can’t catch up on it!
Let us overcome the criticisms and open the path to a new era! Suck, suck~ ☆”
Suzu: “Stop it! Don’t play with my hair~!
Ya-Yakumo-san! Do something about your friend! I’ve had enough of this troublemaker already!”
Chizuru: “Hwe? But Yako-chan’s bullying’s supposed to be her idea of bonding, maaybe. She doesn’t know any other way to display her affection.
She’s bad at expressing herself, but don’t hate her if you can, please? ♪”
Yako: “Chizuru, if you’re not eating the buns, give them to me. I get easily hungry lately. But that’s just proof I’m alive, right?
Man, I feel so great right now! Ahahahaha! ☆”
Chizuru: “Pants? Yako-chan, panties aren’t food, you know?”
Yako: “No one is talking about anyone’s panties, I’m talking about buns, the bread for burgers…
Huh, wait. You guys don’t call it that in Japan[1]?”
Chizuru: “Dunno. Chizuru’s an idiot, after all~♪”
Yako: “Hey, you. Stop abandoning all effort to think by claiming yourself as an idiot!
If you’re really an idiot, then make an effort to think to make up for the idiot you are! Idiots are always the ones to reform the world!”
Azusa: “… hyawa?”
Chizuru: “Ah, we woke her up.
Geez, it’s because you were so loud, you know, Yako-chan? And she was sleeping so nicely, too.
Good morning, umm… what’s your name, again? Can you introduce yourself to big sis?”
Yako: “You, a big sis, Chizuru? Haven’t heard a better joke!”
Suzu: “Azunyan-chan, was it? Are you okay? I’m sorry, we involved you in something weird…
You were sleeping so soundly, but do you remember what happened? Are you hurt anywhere?”
Azusa: “Umm… umm? H-Huh! So it wasn’t a dream?”
Suzu: “It wasn’t. We’ve shaken off our pursuers, and now we’re resting at a burger joint while having a little late dinner.
If there’s anything you want to eat, just say. We’ll order it for you.
Ah, of course it’s on us, so don’t worry.”
Azusa: “No, umm! Please don’t waste your money on someone like Azusa!
Azusa will pay for what she… huh, my bag’s gone! So is my wallet!”
Yako: “Ah, things were so chaotic back there, so you must’ve dropped them somewhere along the way.
I’ll find them for you, so gimme your contact.
You’re a pretty promising newbie. We should totally weave a favorable partnership, fufufu ♪ ”
Azusa: “N-Newbie? U-Umm, what do you mean…?
Azusa feels like she’s gotten her neck in something dangerous!”
Yako: “You idiot, don’t get cold feet just from sticking your neck. Why not dive in with your entire body?
Who knows, maybe you’ll see a brand new scenery you like beyond! Ahahaha! ☆”
Azusa: “Y-Yes!
Azusa has seen so many new sceneries today! ☆
Part 2
Chizuru: “Nyufufu! So you’re climbing the stairs to adulthood!
Chizuru brought you a drink, Azunyan-chan, so go ahead and drink up! It’ll refresh you! ♪”
Azusa: “T-Thank you very much! Azusa is very humbled!”
Chizuru: “Don’t look so nervous, please. It feels really weird.
Chizuru and friends aren’t so great or so right to have someone bowing at us.
On the contrary, we’re all Troublemakers badmouthed by society~ ♪”
Yako: “Here, I’ll give you some change so go grab all the fillings you like for your burger buns. Everything’s to your desire.
Gotta eat lots and absorb lots of energy, huh?
Then get in bed and rest in preparation of tomorrow!
A new wind will blow with the coming of a new day! It’s gonna be an awesome typhoon! Gets your blood pumping, doesn’t it, Azunyan?”
Azusa: “W-Why is everyone calling me Azunyan…?”
Suzu: “You won’t see the end of it if you keep questioning every little thing that girl says. Umm…
You can still leave, you know. I won’t blame you — you should get away before you get mixed up in this.”
Yako: “Oi! Who gives you right to say all that—why don’t I pour some ketchup into your damn eyeball and turn ‘em both the same color, eh!?”
Suzu: “D-Don’t comment on my eyes! Uukh~ You too, Anzu-chan! Don’t just laugh as if you’re enjoying all of this – say something!
If we stick around her any longer, we’re going to be labeled ‘troublemakers’ too!”
Yako: “Ahaha!☆ You’re already on this side from long ago.
Hey, Kuro, Angie, Chizuru, Azunyan…
I feel so great right now. Why do you think that is?
I can’t tell, myself. This is the first for me! ☆”
Chizuru: “Nyufufu! That’s because you’ve gained allies… comrades… friends on your side! ♪”
Yako: “I don’t care for friends, you know. But you girls I do need!
Let’s begin it from here, shall we? Our story! ♪ Ahahahahaha! ☆”
> Classroom
Himeno: “Azusa-chan~?
I feel bad since you seem to be sleeping so soundly, but can you wake up?
We have to lock the classroom and return the key to the teacher, you know?
If you don’t wake up soon, I’ll grab your head and swing it left and right…”
Azusa: “Y-You’re going to turn Azusa’s brain into minced meat so please hold that idea back!”
Himeno: “Oh, there she is. Rise and shine, Azusa-chan! ♪”
Azusa: “Huh…? Ah, Azusa fell asleep, huh?
Sorry! It seems the exhaustion got to me! ☆
I thought I’d help with your class duty, Himeno-chan…
But I ended up taking a nap. Himeno-chan, did you manage well on your own?”
Himeno: “Yeah, hopefully! I’m great at clapping board erasers together to get the dust off!
Though I always end up breaking one out of three!”
Azusa: “What in the world…
Ah, whoa, it’s already late! Himeno-chan, you should’ve woken me up sooner!”
Himeno: “Ehehe. Azusa-chan, you always give your all in class, the Tennis Club and the Health Committee…
So it’s no wonder you’ll be tired enough to nod off! ♪
You need to blow off some steam when you have the chance.
So what do we do? Maybe we should skip our plans for today, and just go straight home so you can take another sleep?”
Azusa: “No… Azusa’s story still hasn’t ended, after all.”
Himeno: “Huh? What do you mean?”
Azusa: “Huh, did I just say something strange? Sorry, it seems Azusa’s still half-asleep!
Anyway, let’s drop by somewhere and grab a bite! ☆
Let’s get energized so we can welcome tomorrow with a sparkling smile! ☆”
It may not make much sense to mix up the two in English, but buns in Japanese is spelled banzu (バンズ) and pants pantsu (ぱんつ or パンツ) so I guess it’s not too far-fetched to mishear, especially if Chizuru wasn’t familiar with the term in the first place. Yako asking about what they’re called in Japan is because she spent a long time overseas. ↩
