Family Flag

Good evening, Master. Lovely weather tonight, isn't it?

Of course. That way, I can go swimming whenever I feel like it.

Yes, I am. I'm just on my way to the beach now.

？！

Would you care to join me, Master?

I must say, Master, you certainly have your work cut out for you every year. First there was that desert island, then a race, and now, ServantFes.

And since it's summer, lots of Servants tend to get a little...out of hand.

Does it just not occur to them to try and conduct themselves more modestly?

Hehe, a head prefect, huh. As my Ruler self, that might well be what I most closely resemble.

But right now, I'm an Archer, and I have just a little more freedom than usual!

...Yes, just a little!

I believe you mean "big sister," right? Riiight?

I'm still too young toI mean, it's too soon for me to be a parental figure...

So I'm perfectly happy sticking with my big sister position!

？！

That said, I'm still in perfectly high spirits myself.

I can tell this place has had a relaxing effect on you too, Master.

Sure, it looks like there's something more going on behind the scenes, but never mind that now.

We're in Luluhawa! Relaxing is the order of the day!

Please, don't think of me as your Servant here. Let's see...

How about you think of me as your big sister?

That way, once it's time to get back to restoring humanity...

...you can still count on me for any help you need.

Once you see what a good big sister I am, thanks to all the practice I've had with Alter and Alter Lily...

...you'll be saying, "You're the best big sister ever!" before you know it!

All right, let's start by holding hands.

Every good big sister holds hands with her little brother!

Now let's go!

And a super reliable one at that!

No, that doesn't sound quite right.

You really must call me "Sis," or I'll simply ignore you!

？！

...What's that? I'm the one who's still acting a bit too formally?

H-hmm. You may be right.

I guess I need to learn how to be more casual if I'm going to be a good big sister...

Ahhh... Ahem, ahem.

Wh-what's up, buddy?

... ...I must say, that was a rather novel experience...

You know, while we're at it, why don't we invite Alter and Alter Lily to join us?

We'll be one big happy family! Three sisters, one brother!

Ooh, here they come now. Over here!

...What the hell's this?

It's almost my bedtime, you know!

We got a little brother now?

All of us?

That's right!

I want you both to welcome our newest addition to the family: Fujimaru!

...So what I'm seeing here is that you got a suspicious chick hanging around you claiming she's your big sister.

Listen, Master...

When it comes to this kinda weird, creepy bullshit, you just gotta learn to be firm and say no.

Otherwise you'll just get dragged into their freaky delusions.

Even though my whole thing is being prim and proper, I think this Luluhawa heat is getting to me, too...

I should have known that winter is much better. Come ooon, hurry up and get here, winter!

Well that's too bad. They're being even more stubborn about this than I thought. Now what do we do, Fujimaru?

Hmm. I suppose we have no choice left but to persuade them a little more forcefully.

Mode Change!

Ooh, a dolphin! Hello, dolphin!

Aaah! So many teeth!

The hell are you doing, Lily!? This bitch is trying to brainwash us with her fists!

We need to take her down now, before Master starts buying into her crazy, too!

Come give me a hand, Fujimaru! Family needs to stick together!

...You really are my little brother.

Yaaay! I'm not the youngest anymore!

That's much better!

？！

Of course! Trust me, your big sister is always right!

Phew. We both worked very hard today, didn't we.

All that's left now is to take a bath and go to bed.

And I certainly can't help you wash up now that you're so big, so...

？！

Great. I'll be here when you get out.

All nice and clean now, Fujimaru?

Why am I on the bed? Why, so you can use my lap as a pillow, silly!

In fact, I insist on it! Now, up you go!

Well? How does it feel?

It's not too hard or anything...is it?

Great!

What if I sang a lullaby? Would that help?

？！

Heh... I never thought I would get to offer someone my lap after becoming a Servant...

This is a dream come true, Master.

...Oh, right. You're my little brother now, aren't you.

Good night, my darling little Fujimaru. Sleep well.

I promise you...

...I'll do everything I can to make sure your life is peaceful and happy.

Teehee.

I see!

So that's why you were letting Senpai sleep on your lap all night!

I didn't even know that was a thing you could do!

Of course it is. I'm his big sister, after all!

I finally came to my senses after waking up! You're not seriously my little brother, right?

Exactly! I know because he's my BIG brother!

？！
