No worries, no worries! Better to play it safe.

If the gods are listening... If I can just draw that tile, I swear I'll eat my vegetables for the rest of my life...

Hmm... What kind of quirky tune is this hand playing today?

Hm... Yubai's always telling me that patience is a virtue. No need to rush it!

Your solo's over, now it's my turn to shine! I'm ready for the sweet sound of victory.

Not even a seasoned opera enthusiast could pick a hole in a performance this flawless!

You came to see the show AND brought me a gift? I'll have to start calling you "kind soul" like Yuan Xiao does from now on, hehe.

Aw, what do I do now? This is such a nice gift, I kinda don't wanna share it with Yubai...

Why did I join Thunderclap? Hm... Other than liking the band, there's another reason I've never told anyone... As you can see, the theater's been losing steam because it hasn't kept up with young people's interests. Yubai worries about this too. But I think it's only because opera hasn't found the right stage for this era. When it does, more people will see just how inclusive and fascinating it really is. So, I wanna try and do just that!

When I was little... I was probably the kid that frustrated Yubai the most. I'd secretly swap the scripts she was writing for amusement park maps, smear menthol ointment on her zither strings, dress up as her and beat up the chubby kid next door... Looking back, I guess I went a little overboard. But she was always busy studying music, chess, calligraphy, and painting instead of playing with me...

Actors have to practice hard if they want to pull off a perfect performance. But the way I see it, you can't always be practicing behind closed doors. If you really wanna get to know people's tastes nowadays, you gotta leave the theater and see the outside world.

Since we're such good friends, I'll let you in on a li'l secret – Thunderclap's enigmatic composer, "Skyazure," is actually none other than yours truly. Hehe, surprised? Why don't I use my real name? Hmm... Well, rock and opera just don't mix, do they? If other people in the troupe found out, they'd definitely go tattling to my sister. I don't wanna give her any more trouble.

Every minute on stage comes from years of hard work and wholehearted devotion to one thing. That's what being an actor – and a person – is all about. These values were passed down by our ancestors, and we must honor them. So, {name}, don't let me catch you doing anything half-heartedly!

{name}! You gotta help me! Ughhh, down at last. I wanted to give everyone a surprise by hanging up the lanterns, but my sleeve got caught on the roof... Thank goodness you came along! Anyway, my lifesaver, if I were an ox for the next lifetime, I'd definitely serve you tirelessly. Wait, no, an ox might end up in soup... I know! A snake! I'll repay you as a helpful snake!

Verdant willow in a shroud of mist, birdsong ringing through peach blossoms... Wah! Don't touch my head while I'm reading the script! You scared me...

Whew, finally... no headpieces, no makeup, just some hard-earned rest. What do you wanna do?

When it comes to choosing a script, I actually prefer plays about codes of honor and settling scores. Some plays always go on about how "a gentleman's revenge is never late" or whatever... If years have passed and it's still late, I can't imagine what is...

Gentle? You mean my sister? Hehe, looks like you don't know her half as well as I do. She's good at keeping the troupe in order, and yep, she's good at keeping me "in order" too... But it's all for the good of Floating Dreams. A good big sister knows when to bring out the carrot or the stick!

Mahjong and opera have something in common, you know – both are products of ancient culture that have evolved over time to attract new generations... And that's why my coming here to play isn't slacking off, it's studying the culture of mahjong. So, you better not rat me out to my sister, or else!

Shh! Don't say anything, just listen. Go to the newsstand at the first intersection and grab two of those huge signed Thunderclap posters. Then, turn left and go into the tailor's shop. The tailor will give you a costume trunk, stick 'em in there. When you reach the entrance to Floating Dreams, tell the manager that you're delivering repaired costumes, then come straight here to me. Right, the newsstand guy and the tailor are my informants, remember to give them the secret signal: "Azure thunder!" Okay, now repeat it back to me!

Um, thanks for your help today. Yubai usually does my makeup, so this is a nice change of pace. But be careful not to let the paint stain your hands... All done? Lemme see... Wait a minute, didn't you say you're good at this? What... the heck... is this?! {name}, get back here!

Singing, speaking, acting, and martial arts are the fundamentals of traditional opera... Remember what the last one is. If you keep poking and prodding me, I'll just have to give you a taste of the "fundamentals" I've been practicing since I was little.

Hey! Floating Dreams has a new show coming up. Want me to save you a ticket?

This front row is all suuuper duuuper VIP seats for Floating Dreams' most honored guests! But... when the show starts, that spear might "SHWING" – and slice right through your collar... Pft! I'm just playing. The most it'll do is make you dizzy with its flashing shine. Go on, take a seat.

In "White Snake," Xiaoqing's big sister is the most important person in the world to her. But in real life... Ahem... If I were to write Xiaoqing her own story, I'd have her meet her own destined person and develop her own affections... As for who that person would be, well... someone as smart as you should have no trouble figuring that out.

Fate brings people together, no matter the distance. I'm so happy we were all fated to play mahjong here!

So many roles and all kinds of stories... Which will we perform today?

A pleasure to meet you. My name is Hua Yubai, I am the acting leader of the Floating Dreams theater... Huh? Y-You were just with my sister?! Fine, fine... You got me. Don't expect to get so lucky next time, though. Lemme start over – I'm Hua Yuqing, nice to meetcha!

In the past, I definitely would have spent a holiday this special with Yubai, but things are different now. I couldn't just leave you all on your own, could I? Not that this means you're more important to me than my sister! At most, you're... At most you're equally important. Okay? Let's leave it at that before you ask me something silly like "If Yubai and I fell into the water, who would you save?" I can't swim, so I wouldn't be saving anyone. So, let's steer clear of the pools and head out for a cozy dinner date instead!
