[ video / canon update ]

[ The video feed opened, to Kyousuke sitting at his desk. His eyes were slightly downcast, though there was a small smile on his face. ]

It's been a while, hasn't it? I've been busy on my end. But, I have a question I'd like to ask the community. [ He crossed his arms. ]

It's never easy watching a younger sibling become more and more independent. My little sister just got a boyfriend today. I'm very happy for her, but it felt a little odd. I never expected this day to come so soon. It made me realize how fast time passes. She's even helping around the school more, and she got selected for an exchange program. It's all...bittersweet.

So, ducks, have you ever had a similar experience with a sibling? Or anyone you've watched grow.

...I never had any siblings [that he knows of] but I did have children once.

[baaaaseball]

Hmm. I see. The feeling would be the same with offspring. Watching them grow up is hard, isn't it?

[ifbymyhands]

I only have an older sister, and she isn't the best with people she thinks I might be dating.

[baaaaseball]

I do remember you mentioning that before. About how protective she is, right?

[enshrined]

Ah- my older brother is engaged.

[baaaaseball]

[ He nodded. ] That's wonderful to hear! But I guess you also felt a little confused, knowing that he's going to start off his own life.

[chestboard]

....Hah.

What a question...! This one suits me perfectly.

[especially since his precious little six year old sibling is now an adult, literally the same age as him.]

[baaaaseball]

Oh? With Ange?

[starblaze]

... Guess so. Even though I don't have family.

[baaaaseball]

Hmm. I guess it doesn't have to be family. The feeling is also possible with friends.

[ ah, appealing to the brocons and siscons on the community here, huh.. ]

At least you're not freaking out over it. [ unlike a certain redhead brother. :| ]

what if it's not a video what then.

[baaaaseball]

Haha. I guess you could say I was hoping for it. She chose my best friend, after all. There's no guy I trust more.

[mightletyouknowme]

Kobato will be cute and young for a long time.

[baaaaseball]

Ahaha! Well, she'll grow up one day, right? Though I'm sure she'll be a great teenager too.

[docfoul]

I was pleased when one of my protégés came back from the dead in the form she always yearned for and sawed her killer in half. It was not an unexpected development, as few things are for a being of my nature, but it was satisfying all the same.

[baaaaseball]

I imagine I would be proud of her as well in that situation. Though it sounds like something more from a manga in this case.

[hugmyscythe]

Grow...?
Physically or emotionally?

[baaaaseball]

Hmm. Both. I guess, more emotionally. She's become more mature and independent. She's always been very childish and attached to me.

[lazyfacepalm]

(Uh. No. If my little sister ever had any kind of boyfriend?)

I'd send them to hell, go there and send them to an even deeper hell, have occasional visits, kick his ass, and pray to God they ban me where they're headed.

(Sure, he may have asked if I had a similar experience...

But it won't happen, ever.)

[baaaaseball]

[ And that just got a confused look out of him. ]

There sure a lot of protective brothers on here. Though I guess I can understand. I would travel to the very depths of hell myself to keep her safe!

[shadow_spread]

Hmm, not exactly. But my younger brothers have been making a lot of big decisions recently.

[baaaaseball]

When those decisions turn out well, you feel proud of them, don't you?

[miraclefighter]

Mii. Well I don't have any siblings, but I live with one of my friends so I consider her a sister to me. Since her big brother went away somewhere, she had a hard time coping with the fact that he was gone. Though when Keiichi transferred, she had found another new male figure in her life to act as an older brother--although they always tease and prank each other.

[baaaaseball]

Mhm. It's true that friends can always help when our own family bonds are cut. She's been dealing with her brother's absence well thanks to Keiichi?

[tenminutes]

Time passes ridiculously fast sometimes, even for people who don't have actual time. I've never really had that experience with siblings but..

[ Iwasawa. ]

I think I might know what you mean.

[baaaaseball]

[ He nodded at that. ]

Yeah. It's easy to feel this way with friends too. I'd imagine as a leader of the rebellion, you'd also be proud of your members.
