I...
あれ、いない……
Huh? I can't find him anywhere...
もー、ケガ人のクセに 勝手にウロウロして~!
He's supposed to be hurt and resting, not out wandering around!
ヨシュア~! どこにいっちゃったのよ~!
Joshua! Where the heck are you?!
ヨシュアってば~!
Joshuaaa!
Joshuaaa !
あ、ヨシュア! こんなトコにいたんだ。
Oh. THERE you are.
まだ無理しちゃダメだってばー!
What're you doing out here? You've gotta start taking it easy!
………………………………
...
......
…………もう平気だよ。
Why? I'm fine.
え…………ホント?
Are you suuure?
……もう熱下がったの?
Is your fever gone?
……負傷に伴う一時的な発熱だ。
It was just a temporary one as a result of my injuries.
今朝には下がった。
My temperature went back down this morning. I'm fine now.
そっか…………
Really?
Vraiment ?
ふう~、よかったー……
Whew... Yay. That's good.
ヨシュア、すっごく うなされてたんだもん。
You were moaning over and over in your sleep.
一時はどうなることかと 思っちゃったし。
I was worried about you.
………………………………
...
......
……僕は……何か言ってた?
Did I say anything?
…………へ……?
Huh?
Hein ?
……いや、何でもない。
...Forget I asked.
…………………………
...
......
えっと…………
So, umm...
Wow...
熱が下がったんなら、 一緒に遊ぼっか。
If you're feeling better, do you wanna play together?
ずっと寝てばっかりで、 タイクツだったでしょ?
It must've been pretty boring to sleep all the time.
………………?
...?
... ?
うんうん、わかるわかる。
I know it's boring for me when I'm stuck in bed with a fever!
あたしも熱のときは 死ぬほど退屈だったもん。
I hate not having anything to do.
あ、でもヨシュアは 足ケガしてるから、 まだ走るのはムリかぁ……
Oh, but you probably shouldn't be running around with your foot all messed up...
えっと……じゃあ 缶ケリも鬼ごっこもダメだし……
I guess tag and kick the can won't work...
…………………………
...
......
遊びたいなら、 一人で遊べばいい。
If you want to play, play by yourself.
僕には近づかないことだ。
Just stay away from me.
……ここも、もうすぐ 危険になるだろうから。
Because it's probably going to get dangerous here soon.
へっ…………!?
It is?!
手当てには感謝しているよ。 随分と世話になったね。
I'm grateful to you for taking care of me.
……カシウス・ブライトにも そう伝えておいて。
...Pass that on to Cassius Bright, too.

元気が無いときは、 好きなことするのが一番。
When you're feeling down, the best thing to do is to do something you enjoy! That'll pick you right up!
よし、ちょっと待ってなさい。 今いいもの持ってくるから!
Wait here, okay? I'll bring you stuff you'll really like! Pinky swear!
(まだ、追っ手の気配はない。)
(There still don't seem to be any signs that anyone's going to come after me...)
(ここが見つかるまで、 {} 2,3日というところか……)
(But it's bound to happen eventually. I've got two or three days at most before they find this place.)
(あと3日…………)
(Two or three days...)
ヨシュア~……!
Joshua!
ほら、これあげるから。
Here you go! A present from me!
元気出しなさい!
So cheer up, okay?
{color 5}エステルは、『ダンゴムシ』を差し出した。

(…………意味が分からない……)
(What is she doing?)
ね、かわいいでしょ?
Aren't they cute?
つっつくと丸くなるんだぞっ!
They curl up if you poke them!
……いらないよ。
I'm fine, thanks.
えっ、なんで? こんなにかわいいのに~!
Whaaat? How come? They're so cute...
そんなもの、いらないって。
Because I don't.
それと、もうここへは来るな。
Also, stop coming over here. Stay away from me.
むう、この虫は 好きじゃなかったか……
So you want another kind of bug, huh?
…………いや、 そうじゃなくて……
That wasn't what I was trying to say...
ちょっと待って。 あのケース取って来る!
Hold on! I know LOTS of bugs!
……………………
...
......
ヨシュア、これでどうだ!!
How about THIS?!
『オニヤンマ』!
It's a dragonfly!
だから、いらないって……
I don't want one of these, either...
じゃ、こっち! これならバッチリなはず!
Okay, but how about THIS?!
ゼッタイ気に入るから!!
You've gotta like these!
『マルガオオトカゲ』!!
Behold! A Malgan monitor lizard!
…………………………
...
......
コイツもダメか!!
What?! You're one tough cookie...
……あのさ、僕は個々の虫が どうこうって意味じゃなくて……
Look, this isn't about what I like. I don't want any kind of bug or lizard or anything you have to offer me.
くううぅ…………!
Aaargh!
これ、あたしの お気に入りだったのに~っ!!
This one's my favorite, too! What's wrong with you?!
(……何なんだ、この子は……?)
(What's wrong with YOU?)
(さっきから意味が分からない……)
(I'm feeling more and more like there's something I'm missing, here...)
……ヨシュア、 ちょっとここに座んなさい。
Sit down for a minute, Joshua. I've got a serious question to ask.
…………もう座っている……
...I'm already sitting.
ヨシュアって…… どんな虫が好き?
What kinda bugs do you like?
おっきいのが好き!? キレイなのが好き!?
Big ones? Pretty ones?
足は多い方が好き!? 触覚長いのが好き!?
Ones with lots of legs? Ones with long feelers?
甲羅? 羽? それとも水かきっ!?
Ones with shells? Wings? Webbed feet?
…………………………
...
......
…………虫はいらない。
I don't want any bugs at all.
がーん!!#2S#240W
Whaaaaaaaaat?!#2S#240W
うう、となると…………
...I'm gonna have to pull out all the stops.
何かビックリするような ヤツでないとダメか……
I need something so surprising, you'll change your mind...
……よし、待ってろ。
Don't move a muscle!
あたしがとってきてやる!
I'll find something! I will!
…………………………

……あの子、虫が好きなのか?
She sure likes bugs, doesn't she?

(いざ、こうしてみると静かだな。)
(It's so...quiet here.)

…………………………
...
......
とうっ!
Hiyaaa!
ほら、見て見て! コイツ、面白い顔!
Look! Look at this one's face!
…………だから、 いらないって言ってるのに。
How many times do I have to tell you I don't want any bugs before it gets through?
君も懲りないな……
Are you even listening?
名づけて『ビックリ人面蛾』! 羽のモヨウが人の顔に見える!!
Look, though! I hereby name this the Human Moth, 'cause the pattern on its wings looks like a human face!

(…………何コレ……)
(What the heck?)
あはは! ビックリしたでしょ~!
Ahahaha! I knew this'd surprise you!
…………別に。
Except it didn't.
うんうん、おねーさん 頑張ったカイがあったわ~☆
I knew my efforts would pay off big time! ☆
よし、次はもっと すごいヤツとってくるから!
Next time, I'm gonna bring back something even MORE awesome!
ひゃっほー!
Wheeeeee!
本当に、騒がしい子だな……
She's so obnoxious...

Oh, great. She's back.

……何するんだ!
What was THAT for?!
ん…………?
What was what for?
あはははは!
Ahahaha!
それそれっ! 水かけちゃうぞ!
I'm gonna splash you!
……クッ…………
...Ugh...
はー、気持ちいい……
Ahhh... The water feels so nice.
あ、そうだ。 釣りしよっと。
Oh, I know! Wanna go fishing?
水あそびも好きだけど、 やっぱ釣りのほうが面白いもんね。
Playing in the water's fun, but real fishing's even more fun!
よーし、お昼ゴハンを 釣り上げてやるっ!
Let's go catch today's lunch!
ほら、ヨシュアも上がろ。
C'mon, Joshua! We're getting out!
着替えないと、カゼ引いちゃうぞ!
You'll catch a cold if you stay in those wet clothes too long.
…………………………
...
......
やった、大物だ!
YAY! Caught a big one!
これはヨシュアの分ね!
This one's for you, Joshua.
僕の分は……いらないよ。
You don't need to catch anything for me...
次はあたしの釣ろっと。
Now I'm gonna catch one for me!
釣れなかったらお昼ぬき!!
If I don't catch anything, I'll have to go without lunch. And that would suck.

Haaah!
あ、カサギンだ。
Oh, it's a dace.
むう、小さい。 これはおとーさんのだな……
And it's tiny... Daddy's getting this one.
あのふりょーオヤジ、 どーせ遊び歩いてるんだし このくらい、とーぜんのバツよね!
He probably just spent the day messing around instead of working, anyway. He doesn't deserve a cool fish.
え………………?
...What?
... Quoi ?
次のヤツがあたしのよ。 あたしのお昼ゴハン!
Okay, next one I catch is definitely mine!
とうっ!
Hi-ho!
(この子、カシウス・ブライトの事を {} 知らないのか…………)
(She doesn't know anything about Cassius Bright?)
(娘には何も話していない。 {} 彼らしいといえば彼らしいけど……)
(So he tells his daughter nothing about what he does... It fits his profile, I suppose.)
ああっ、逃げられた!
Aww. It got away.
くっそー!! 次こそ! 次こそ釣るぞ!!
The next one's not gonna be so lucky, though!

どーしちゃったのかなぁ……
Do you think she's okay?
昨日もお店に来なかったし……
She didn't come over to the shop yesterday, either.
ま、気まぐれな エステルのことだし。
I still think you're worried about nothing.
そんなに心配しなくて いいんじゃない?
Estelle's okay! She always does whatever she wants, when she wants.
でも、今までは毎日 遊びに来てたのに……
But she used to come over to play every day...
エステル、いる~?
ESTEEELLE! IT'S ELISSA!
エステルってばー!
Esteeeeeelle! Come outside!
も、もしかして、悪いヒトに ゆうかいされちゃったとか~!?
Y-You don't think she's been ab-dock-ted, do you?
……それなら、 魔獣に襲われて瀕死の重傷を負い 哀れ森のなかでのたれ死んだ……
I think I'd buy 'she got attacked by monsters in the woods and ended up experiencing a slow, drawn-out death' more than that.
……の方が微妙に可能性が高いわね。
...That sounds like the way she'd go.
えええ~っ!?
That's so gross!
あの子、普段から アブナイとこ行ってるみたいだし。
That's what she gets for going into the woods all the time to play.
エ、エステルぅ……
O-Oh, no... Poor Estelle...
冗談だってば。
...You do know I'm joking, right?
エステル~? いい加減でてこーい!
Come on out, Estelle!
エリッサが泣いちゃうぞ~!
Elissa's going to cry if you don't!
……エステルなら出かけてるよ。
If you're looking for Estelle, she's out at the moment.
んん…………っ!?
You're a boy!
あれ~っ…………??
Huh?!
…………………………
...
......
…………誰っ!?
Who're you?!
………だれ~!?
Yeah!!
ヨシュア~!
Joshuaaa!
Joshuaaa !
すっごい虫 つかまえたぞっ!
I caught something AMAZING!
……あれ、 ティオにエリッサ?
Huh?
Hein ?
来てたんだー。
What are you doing here?
Qu'est-ce que vous faites ici ?
あ、エステル……
Estelle!
もー、今まで何してたのよ~。
Where have you BEEN all this time?!
心配してたんだから~!
I was so worried about you!
ねえエステル、この子知り合い?
Who's this boy, anyway? Someone you know?
さっきから何を聞いても 返事してくれないのよ。
We've been trying to talk to him for ages now, but he won't tell us anything.
『答える義理は無い』だって。
Keeps telling us everything we ask is 'none of our business.'
………………エステル。
...Estelle.
この2人は君の友人か?
Are these your friends?
え、うん。 そうだけど…………?
Y-Yeah, they are...
(本人たちの話とも一致するな。)
(It seems they're not lying about that part, then.)
(……隙だらけだし、 {} 訓練を受けている様子もない。)
(They don't seem to have undergone any kind of training, either, and their guard is virtually nonexistent...)
(そろそろ連中が嗅ぎ付ける頃かと {} 思ったけど……)
(I figure it's about time THEY found me...)
(この2人は違うみたいだな……)
(...but it doesn't look like these two have anything to do with them.)
さっきからこの調子なのよ。 ロレントじゃ見ない顔だし……
He's barely talked ever since we got here.
エステル、この子のこと 知ってんのよね。
I've never seen him around Rolent before. How do you even know him?
ああ、うん。 ヨシュアはね、実は…………
Oh, 'cause Daddy gave him to me as a present.
あたしの弟なんだ!!
He's my new little brother!
(…………ッ……!?)
(...?!)
えっ、エステルの弟?
He is?!
そ、そうだったんだー。 はあー、ビックリした~……
W-Wow... I sure wouldn't have guessed that.
おーいエステル。 それ説明になってないぞー。
Neither would I...because it doesn't make sense!
イキナリ弟って…… それだけじゃわかんないわよ。
That's not how getting a little brother works!
ほんとだもんねー。
But it's true!
ね、ヨシュア!
Right, Joshua?
……そんな訳ないだろ。
...No, it isn't.
あ、ヨシュア! まちなさい!
Hey! Wait a minute!
むうぅ……
Listen, young man!
おねーさんの ゆーこと聞きなさい!
Listen to what your older sister tells you!
……君みたいなのが 姉さんなわけないだろ。
As if someone like you could be my older sister.
え…………?
...Huh? Why?
君たちと馴れ合うつもりはない。
I'm not here to be friends with you.
僕がここに居るのは……
The only reason I'm here at all is that 'things just worked out that way.'
カシウス・ブライトも言ってただろ。 ……“成り行き”だよ。
That was what Cassius Bright said, wasn't it?
………………………………
...
......
それと……
Oh, and one more thing.
虫を持ってくるのは もう止めてくれないか。
Can you stop bringing me bugs?
何のつもりか知らないけど、 お節介も過ぎると怪我をするよ。
I don't know what your obsession with them is, but being too much of a meddler is just going to end with you getting hurt.
とおっ!
Haaah!
うぐっ…………!?
Oww!
ええい、このこのっ!
Take that! And that!
イ、イタ……ッ!
Ow! Owww!
この家じゃ、 あたしのほうが先輩だもん!
In this house, I'm the older one!
あたしがおねーさんだもんね!
That means you have to listen to what I say!
い、痛い……
O-Ow...
どーだ、おねーさんでしょ?
Okay?
あ・た・し・が・お・ね・え・さ・ん。 #20Wホラ、言ってみなさい!
O k a y, J o s h u a? #20WGo on! Answer!
……イ……イヤだ。
N-No!
なんだと~!!#2S
Excuse me?!#2S
仲いいんだね~……
Well, those two sure get along well...
うーん、そうみたいね……
So it seems...
……そこの2人、ウルサイよ。
You two can shut up any time.
スキありっ!
Got you!
ヨシュア、今日から あたしがおねーさんよ。
I win! From today until forever, I'm your big sister!
もうけってーじこうだから。
No backsies allowed!
うぎゃああぁぁぁっ…………!?
Aaaaaah!
Ahhhhhhhh !
この声は…………エステル!?
That sounded like Estelle!
まさか……何かあったのか?
Did something happen to her?!

(...No, it might not have. It's Estelle. She probably just tripped.)
