Later that night

After catching Nanako and Tsurayuki who came back home, I announced the idea I thought up of.
“
and that’s why I want it to be set at a station"
And the verdict was...
“Station? Why?”
“Is Kyouya one of those train otakus?”
Question marks are written all over the girls faces.
Tsurayuki on the other hand is quietly looking on but he’s definitely paying attention as his ears are pointed in this direction.
“Then Iet me explain my line of thought.”
I tell them my perspective on the matter.
“Since the station is a place that everyone uses, I thought could explain the setting with minimum effort with just the premise alone
In other words you won’t need to dwell too much with setting up the location of the story. The film run-time is limited so wouldn’t this be convenient?”
It would be difficult to give a sufficient explanation of the setting with just 3 minutes so I want it to be established as early and easily as possible.
With that point in mind if it’s a public place that everyone can relate to like a train station, then you can explain it with putting in a railway signage at the beginning and an image of someone waiting at the train platform.
“Do you two girls remember the stations you talked about?”
“Yeah there are many things that I can remembe about it.” 
 “Yup, now that you mention it
”
The two of them gave a nod of approval.
“Well then please look at this-”
I let everyone see the plot outline. 
Opening scene. Perspective of the station staff. A lone girl at the station wearing a randoseru-style bag.
The girl gets on and off the train from the platform again and again and with each time the girl grows older from a child to an adult.
The last scene ends depicting a scene where she leaves the station with a cane.
We start in the morning and end in the evening.
Overlay that scene with the life of a woman, then it mimics the passage of time. One can closely relate their life In a place like a station and that’s why I thought it was a fitting place.
In a station there many ways to easily show the passage of time and people can easily relate how time passes by in such a place
And above all it’s easy to make drama in that kind of setting.
“So how’s it look?”
Once again I check everyone’s opinions on the matter.
“The explanations easy to follow~ . Count me in.~”] [“Me too, it’s great that its easy to understand.”
This time I have favorable impressions from the girls.
[“What’s your take on it, Tsurayuki?”
I glanced at him to see his reaction. Not a word from Tsurayuki as he sits there motionless with his arms crossed.
“Wait for me for a sec.”
As he said so he stood up before getting anyone’s consent.
“Uhmm
Tsurayuki?”
And just like that he went into his room.  
“What’s up with him?”  
Nanako with a puzzled face looks at Tsurayuki’s room
“He told us to wait so maybe he’ll have something to show us.”
Shinoaki seemed to not worry about it and was scribbling on a paper she has on hand.
“What on earth is he up to?”
As I think about various things, not a single sound was heard from Tsurayuki’s room.
30 minutes later Tsurayuki came out of his room.
“
Have a look”
Saying just a few words he put a piece of paper on top of the desk
“This is
?" 
“It’s a scenario. I took a jab at Kyouya’s plot and quickly wrote it.”
I pick it up and read it. According to Tsurayuki this scenario was made with my idea in mind. Despite it being called a “plot” in reality however its only a memo with just a few lines, but his scenario’s description included detailed situations, scene transitions, character profiles, and dialogues while being easy to follow.
This was written in 30 minutes
?
He wrote it that quickly after seeing the plot, the scale of his talents are insane.
“Tsurayuki this
”
After reading I called out to Tsurayuki. He had a solemn expression on his face.
“I didn’t contribute to the idea so I thought I’d write something and that’s what I’ve put together just now.”
Just as I suspected you really are amazing Tsuruyaki

Nanako clinches the scenario paper from my hands.
“Fufufu, I wonder how a guy like Tsurayuki writes a woman’s lines in the script, this would be something to see.’”
Nanako doesn’t return it to Tsurayuki but gives it to Shinoaki instead. 
“Shinoaki, this is something that should be seen by everyone in the team.”
Shinoaki receives the paper and begins reading it.
“
..Hmmm”
“Let’s hear it from Shinoaki, say how bad Tsurayuki’s script is...”
Shinoaki then looks up.
“I think this could be interesting!”
“Eh
!?”
Nanako was surprised with her reaction as Shinoaki murmurs in approval of what she’s reading
“We need to be careful how we handle each take but I’m really looking forward to doing this~!”
Nanako looks a little interested now.
“Well, well, Tsurayuki’s actually has it in him huh? Now we just need to have you create a proper, completed version.”
Nanako snorts and flashes a provocative smile at Tsurayuki.  
“Well I can’t say for sure how it’s going to work out till I completely write it out though.”
“Eh? I see. Do your best then
”
Unexpectedly Tsurayuki didn’t respond to Nanako’s usual retorts as it ended up dead in the water.
“I’m looking forward to the screenplay!~”
As everyone was conversing about various things, I gaze at Tsurayuki with a sense of respect.
(As I thought, Tsurayuki really is great
 he’s amazing!)
Once again I am in awe at his talent.
