「水泳部の町野さんはいつも部活が始まる前に、僕しかいないドミノ部に顔を出す。町野さんはコント仕立ての会話でボケ倒すので、僕はツッコまずにはいられない。ボケては返すの言葉尻。恋も他愛もない会話。毎日は一瞬なのに、永遠に感じられた夏休みの部室。けれどこの夏が終わるとき、ふたりのドミノが一斉に倒れ始める――。」 「いきなりラノベっぽいあらすじを語り始めてどうしたの、町野さん」 Machino seems to always visit our main character Nitanda at the domino club he started, always joking around, always teasing. Machino-san from the swim team always stops by the Domino Club—where I’m the only member—before her practice starts. She constantly bombards me with skit-style jokes, so I can’t help but fire back with retorts. Joke, retort, wordplay—day after day. Silly conversations, a touch of romance. Those fleeting summer clubroom days somehow felt eternal. But when this summer comes to an end, both of our dominoes will begin to fall all at once— “Why are you suddenly narrating a light novel-style summary, Machino-san?”
