leopardeyes【RIKU】： I'm glad.
【TENN】： About what?
【RIKU】： That you're really friends with TRIGGER, Tenn-nii.
【RIKU】： What sort of relationship do you have with the two from TRIGGER?
【TENN】： Before that, what did you think, Riku?
【RIKU】： More than what I thought, but the same goes for Mom and the others, we were all worried.
Gaku Yaotome and Ryunosuke Tsunashi both have kinda evil-looking faces, don't they?
【TSUMUGI】： Evil-looking faces!?
【RIKU】： One way or another.......... Since they wear black clothes a lot, too.
【TSUMUGI】： But wouldn't Kujo-san be the same.....?
【RIKU】： I know Tenn-nii isn't scary, though.
【TENN】： Well, the two of them are both tall and might have scary faces. Gaku especially.
【RIKU】： Right! There's times where he's sultry-seeming, and there were times when he felt really arrogant,
So Mom, she was worried that maybe you weren't being bullied, Tenn-nii.
【TENN】： (LOL)
【RIKU】： W, what? Was that strange?
【TENN】： Just now, I showed this to him and he went into shock.
【RIKU】： Yaotome-san!? I know that he's a good guy now, though!
【RIKU】： Yaotome-san really helped me out at the hotel in Okinawa!
【TENN】： The hotel?
【RIKU】： I got his room confused with yours, Tenn-nii, and accidentally went to Yaotome-san's room.
After that, he listened to my story in his room.
【TENN】： In his room? Did he have it properly cleaned?
【RIKU】： It was very nice!
【TSUMUGI】： With Gaku-san, does he often leave his room in disorder?
【TENN】： That's not how it is at all, but if he's letting Riku into his room then it should be after he's showered and changed his clothes
Is what I'd want, at least.
【RIKU】： Lately, I haven't had that many attacks happening, so it's fine!
【TENN】： Just now, he shouted at me, "Why do I have to go through a purification ceremony just for your younger brother's sake".
【RIKU】： Are you okay? Are you being bullied.......?
【TENN】： I wonder........ I can be pretty timid, after all...........
【RIKU】： I'm worried.........
【TSUMUGI】： Kujo-san, Riku-san will take you seriously, so......
【TENN】： Gaku's disposition is straightforward. He's a kind person.
【RIKU】： Really?
【TENN】： He's still a bit clumsy, though.
Since he's kind, he has the intention of doing services, but he can't handle the actual business.
【RIKU】： So basically, he can't tell lies?
【TENN】： Yeah. Receiving the amount of attention that he gets and living without clouding your words is a difficult thing.
【TENN】： But, he's trying to do that. He's a cool person.
【RIKU】： That's incredible.
【TENN】： Yeah.
【RIKU】： And Tsunashi-san?
【RIKU】： Mom said that since that person seems like a playboy, she hoped that he wasn't teaching you lewd things, Tenn-nii
We were worried, but.......
【TENN】： (LOL)
【RIKU】： Is that weird? Is he really not actually a playboy?
【TENN】： He sure is a playboy.
【RIKU】： So he is one, after all! Were you taught anything weird.......?
【TENN】： Just a bit.
【RIKU】： You absolutely cannot mimic him!
【TENN】： I'll be careful.
【RIKU】： Incidentally, what sort of stuff were you taught......?
【TENN】： They were things that I can't talk about in front of you or a girl, Riku; they were preposterously extreme, and preposterously erotic,
And overall things that only Ryu can do.
【RIKU】：
【TSUMUGI】：
【TENN】： I'm joking, though.
【RIKU】： I was startled!!!
【TSUMUGI】： I could feel my heart beating, as well....
【TENN】： There's no need to worry. Ryu isn't the commander of erotic transmissions that the world makes him out to be.
【RIKU】： Then, what sort of person is he?
【TENN】： An ordinarily erotic man.
【RIKU】： Ordinary..........
【TENN】： Ryu is completely normal. It's incredible to stay normal in this world.
He suffers from there being a gap between his image, but he's big-hearted and a pure and wonderful person.
I'm always being supported and saved by his sincerity.
【RIKU】： I think I might get it.
His face when he smiles and his way of speaking are gentle, and I'd thought that it'd be nice if I could get to know him better.
【TENN】： Thank you.
For me, Gaku or Ryu being hurt is the number one thing I can't forgive.
But, the ones who are doing the most hurting might be us.
【RIKU】： How so?
【TENN】： Because Ryu doesn't like quarreling.
【TENN】： It's not like Gaku and I enjoy conflict, but for the sake of our convictions, we step out into places where there's a large amount of opposition.
【TENN】： I feel bad for getting him involved.
【RIKU】： I think Tsunashi-san is a strong person, so I'm sure it's alright.
【TENN】： That's true. When he gets mad, he's the scariest.
【RIKU】： I'm glad.
【TENN】： About what?
【RIKU】： That you're really friends with TRIGGER, Tenn-nii.
【TENN】： I wonder.
【RIKU】： You're friends! I can tell that you really love each other!
【TENN】： Let me hear about IDOLiSH7 this time.
【RIKU】： About everyone? Sure thing!
【TSUMUGI】： It's around the time where you should be arriving, Riku-san!
Let's continue this following the photoshoot and interview, shall we!
【TENN】： Roger.
【RIKU】： Tenn-nii, I'm really looking forward to the interview with you!
Let me hear lots about how you feel about music and work, Tenn-nii!
【RIKU】： I'll be in your care from here on out!
【TENN】： I'm looking forward to it, too. Take care on your way over.

t/n:
1. minor note on the title but I thought I'd mention that on their first chapters, it was "ten and riku" (preparing for the interview) for ten's card, and then "riku and ten" (after the interview) for riku's card; they put the twin whose card it was first when writing the titles! in this case though it's ten's card, but the grammar pattern puts riku's name first and I am probably the only one who reads significance into that (but in english it's awkward if I say "riku never knew these stories about ten")
2. tsumugi becomes the true yaotome gaku defense squad 2k15 in this chat, every time she interjected to try to defend gaku I started laughing
"are you saying that gaku-san is messy" "are you saying gaku-san is a bully" (meanwhile she takes the playboy lie for ryuu without any objections I see what your angle is here.....)
3. ten's honesty is at an all time low in this chat (his 小悪魔 tendencies are showing) but I can still picture gaku going into cardiac arrest upon being told that people were worried he was bullying ten, if not only because like 90% of trigger's dynamic is ten trying to boss around gaku and ryuu like he's their big brother
who's the real bully here
4. the hotel incident happened in the main story! riku started pouring his heart out to ten('s room's door) and being like listen this is why I came over into this world etc. etc. and then out comes yaotome gaku. dojikko riku strikes again
as riku says, though, gaku (his FAMILY OMOI senses activating) then proceeded to invite riku in to hear more about his story and I still wonder just what sort of a conversation those two had..............
5. there's some weird spacing in ten's line about his preferred sanitation process for gaku, but he basically says "he should change clothes and shower first" and then there's a line break, and then it says "I want him to do that"
I'm not really sure what the spacing is meant to imply, but I tried to leave a similar meaning intact in my translation! if ten is being nice then it could be his way of hesitating @ expressing personal investment in riku's wellbeing but then deciding to just roll with it
do I sense a stutter, kujou ten (I could be reading into it wrong, though!)
6. riku don't ask that
7. ten refers to ryuu as an "エロの伝導帥", I'm not 100% on the actual translation but I think that you might be able to add "Erotic Virus" to the list of things ryuu has been called right after pheromone dragon
8. ten's line after gaku and ryuu being hurt was a bit difficult to translate (maybe because I was so caught up on whispering trigger is the most important dynamic), but I think what he's basically saying is that the ones who are hurting gaku and ryuu the most are him (ten) + gaku and ryuu. in other words, trigger is their own worst enemy? for the reasons he then outlines — since he and gaku tend to roll hard and live fast, ryuu gets hit with a lot of the collateral?
9. ten's last line could just be basically "don't trip when you get off of the bus/train/whatever it is", or he could also be using おいで to say, like, take care on your way over into this world, if you wanna read into it a bit more? since riku's card's line is the "I'll keep running with all my strength towards the side you're on" and ten's is like "wow you've gotten pretty confident huh" or w/e, this line could sort of be ten's way of opening up to letting riku into the same world that he's in? I dunno
10. riku's comic bonus chats pick up following the interview and photoshoot, whereas this chat ends directly before the interview and photoshoot! hence why ten refers to "the conversation from earlier" (the conversation at the very end of this chat) about idolish7
【TENN】： About what?
【RIKU】： That you're really friends with TRIGGER, Tenn-nii.
【RIKU】： What sort of relationship do you have with the two from TRIGGER?
【TENN】： Before that, what did you think, Riku?
【RIKU】： More than what I thought, but the same goes for Mom and the others, we were all worried.
