Title:Musume-Doujouji(After the TV series end, Alto returns to a Kabuki actor.)
Alto danced a splendid female-impersonator program, Kyou-Kanoko-Musume-Doujouji. He fluttered the sleeve of gold and red of kimono gorgeously.
Sheryl admired the dance.
"Wonderful. This is way over my expectation!"
Alto walked down the stage and put one arm on the waist, looking annoyed.
"Was it that funny?"
"It's a complement. You looked like a real woman."
Sheryl smiled.
"That is called killing body."
"Kill?"
Alto turned the front of the body to Sheryl.
"Tilting shoulder like this."
Alto moved both shoulders back-downward, flatten them a bit. he said,
"This makes my shoulder looks narrower, creating an image of a woman."
Alto put off the front of his body from the direction where Sheryl was.
"What an amazing traditional technique."
Sheryl walked around Alto. She stretched herself and stared at Alto closely.
Alto was charmed by the eyes of Sheryl that twinkled with curiosity.
She said.
"Your makeup is wonderful and exotic, too."
"Do you want to try it?"
"Oh?"
"Kabuki makeup"
"Can I?"
"The Kabuki actor does make up by himself. Come to the dressing room."
"What a surprise."
Sheryl sat down in front of a mirror in the dressing room.
Alto removed Sheryl's makeup skillfully. He was still wearing the female kimono.
He said.
"I rarely do such service. Be thankful then."
"I thank you very very very much! Alto"
"You don't sound sincere at all."
Alto applied face powder on to Sheryl's face, while chatting with her. Her soft and smooth skin was the best for putting on make up.
"It's kind of heavy, Alto."
"It is the make up from the times when only candles were used as Kabuki stage lighting. Quiet down a little bit. Close your eyes."
Alto put pink shadow on Sheryl's eyelids and the ridge of the nose by a brush. His finger brushed rouge on her lower eyelid and lip.
"Here you go."
Sheryl opened her eyes slowly.
"Wow."
Sheryl stared at hers reflection in the mirror. She looked at it from different angle, checking the finish of the makeup.
Sheryl, who has European looking, was now an oriental beauty.
"The finish is good. This makeup may be usable as an album jacket."
"You are workaholic."
Alto stared at Sheryl from the side.
"Invite me as a makeup artist if you really photograph an album jacket then."
"I'll guarantee you a good pay."
Sheryl watched Alto wiping off the rouge which stuck to a finger. She was suddenly conscious of her lips.
Alto touched her lips.
She traced a lip with her fingers. Some bright rouge came off and got on to her finger-tip.
"Alto, it came off, fix it for me."
"Already?"
Alto spread the rouge using a forefinger.
Sheryl looked into the mirror.
In the mirror, a bewitching woman was teaching a young girl how to do makeup.
Alto danced a splendid female-impersonator program, Kyou-Kanoko-Musume-Doujouji. He fluttered the sleeve of gold and red of kimono gorgeously.

Title:Outline of emptiness/Kuukyo no rinkaku(The TV series #22)
Environmental equilibrium of Island-1 surely faces the catastrophe.
A district with the Saotome-Ranzo mansion keeps quiet and rich green, like the another world.
When starting in sleep with Sheryl in the separate building in the Saotome mansion, Sheryl pestered Alto for some talk.
"Tell some story."
Sky-blue eyes of Sheryl reflects the light of the room and shines.
Alto looks around in a Japanese-style takes out a box from a built-in closet.
He opens a box, and he displays cards which are in the box in the very front of Sheryl.
"Beautiful. Is it a card game."
"Yes, Ogura-Hyakuninisshu. There are 100 pieces of cards, and a poet's portrait and the poetry with a fixed form are written in at a card."
The cards which are memento of Miyo who is mother of Alto are a work of art. A great master drew a portrait, and a calligraphist wrote in poetry.
Miyo brought the small works of art into Saotome's household when she married Ranzo.
"Poets drawn on the cards are famous, and each is a legendary chief character."
Alto tells about a story hidden in a card which Sheryl points.
ARIWARA-no-Narihira is a playboy of the Heian era.
Murasaki-Sikibu finished writing a long piece love story.
MIBU-no-Tadami competed with TAIRA-no-Kanemori for beauty of the love poem.
ABE-no-Nakamaro succeeded in life distantly in the remote ground from the hometown. However, he felt nostalgic for the hometown for life.
Sangi-no-Takamura visited the world of dead since he lived. He judged the soul of the dead person there.
Shikishi-Naishin-nou(Princess Shikishi) made poetry of intense love with easy words. She became the subject of the program of noh named "Teika" in the next era.
Sheryl picks up the card, she asks Alto.
"Why is only a woman drawn on this card a back figure."
"Her name is ONO-no-Komachi. Komachi is the best beautiful woman in Japanese illustrator draws her back figure with reserve."
"The illustrator thought about a good method. I excite the imagination about this woman"
Sheryl brings a card near a face and observes it.
"Then will she surely has a drama concerning the love"
Alto nods and tells the story of "FUKAKUSA-Shoushou".
Komachi continued refusing many Noble men who propose to her.
She gave particularly earnest FUKAKUSA-Shoushou a problem among men.
Komachi will love FUKAKUSA-Shoushou if he visits 100 nights continuation to her house.
FUKAKUSA-Shoushou was going to meet expectation of Komachi. He visited her house at snowy night at rainy night.
However, he made it the 99th and got sick. He has died.
Komachi grieved. She did not marry throughout the life.
Sheryl says.
"It is a sad story."
"Yes."
Sheryl lies on futon and looks up at the ceiling.
"Surely Komachi could not believe good looks of her own."
"The poetry that she made means, the beauty of the flower declines immediately. My beauty is the same, too."
"The poetry is such a meaning. Therefore Komachi could not believe his love unconditionally. She wanted to check his faithfulness and love at the number of times."
"I did not hit on interpretation like you. But your hypothesis may be almost a correct answer."
"Is my interpretation original?"
"Yes."
Sheryl hears words of Alto, and smiles.
Alto freed from night military duties in the morning of the day after next returns to an outbuilding of Saotome's house.
He is an intention to spend with Sheryl as much as possible.
A fatal V type infectious disease that undermines health of Sheryl became the terminal stage.
Alto opens the shoji of the room where where Sheryl lies quietly.
Futon is spread in the center of the room. She lied on the top. Around Sheryl, Cards of Hyakuninn-Isshu are scattered.
Alto sits down on a tatami mat calmly, looks at Sheryl's sleeping face.
She does not seem to have suffered last night. Alto is relieved.
A card of ONO-no-Komachi is grasped in a hand of Sheryl which lies.
"Did you like it?"
Alto puts away scattered card in the box.
Sheryl rubs against eyes at the back of the hand.
"Sorry, I wake you up"
When an alto says, Sheryl.
"No problem. Good morning Alto"
Sheryl causes a body.
Alto kisses her.
Sheryl hugs him.
When Alto stops a kiss, Sheryl reddens cheeks and looks down.
"I want to ask Alto"
"Is there any change in your physical condition?"
"No. There is nothing."
Sheryl stands up, and closes a shoji.
The view of the garden which is full of green is blocked by a shoji.
The airlight that passes a shoji lights up the outline of Sheryl.
"I want Alto to stare at myself. Before it's too late. Before my body changes"
Sheryl takes off a yukata.
"Hey."
"How do you look me?"
Alto says with a sigh.
"I cannot say well."
"Say something."
Alto gets good words after little silence.
"Ana niyashi e wotome wo."
"What did you say?"
"What a beautiful woman. The words of a proposal very first in the world. The words of gods."
"The speech is simple expression."
Sheryl smiles.
Alto draws Sheryl close to Alto. Two people kiss slowly.
This moment, the world becomes the possession of Alto and Sheryl.
