Yo? miss me not? xD

"When is this going to end..?" I couldn't help but mutter under my breath.
After dining from the restaurant, we came back to the mall to buy more things, while it isn't boring, it's quite tiring to follow the girls doing whatever they want.
I also get the feeling that Ai is also exhausted, mostly mentally since this is her first time doing a full-blown shopping.
"Soon." My brother-in-law replied.
I shifted my attention toward him and raised a brow and said. "How would you know that?"
Shirou replied. "Trust me, it's called experience after shopping with Lorelei multiple times, I know when is this going to end."
"Right…" I'm supposed to be the brother here you know? But why does it seem that he knows better about Lorelei than me who lived with her for almost 2 decades.

True to his words, fortunately the shopping indeed, the sheer relief was visible on Ai's face, not that I blame her for acting like that, although…
I stared at the our guards/item carrier. I couldn't help but pity them, as they look about to collapse into the dirty marble concrete of the mall.
Once upon a time I was like them, but that was a lifetime ago.
After buying half of the mall clothes (probably), we went directly to the limousine, while we wait for the guards to put every clothes and items that my sister bought for Ai and the children.
While sitting in one of the limo seat, I stared at Ai who was exhausted.
"I take you're exhausted."
Ai glared but a bit weak compared than usual. "Thank you for stating the obvious. Captain Obvious!"
Letting out a inelegant groan. "To think I have to do this again next season?"
I let out a laugh and replied. "Welcome to my world."
"I don't like this world, can I quit?"
I looked at her and smiled. "Nope, besides it's not me who you should ask that kind of question. It's her." I pointed at my sister who was sitting next to Shirou.
I saw Ai shudder a little and quickly answered. "I think I'll pass."
It was funny how quickly she replied, not that I blame her, if Lorelei wasn't my elder sister. I would probably act like that too.
Probably.

-Shirou Emiya-
He didn't know why but his brother-in-law Alexander suddenly asked him a complete random question, he doesn't know where it came from but seeing that this was to keep the conversation alive.
Anyway, he asked what unforgettable memories that he could remember for the rest of his life.
It was rhetorical question that he honestly don't know how to answer correctly, to be fair he has a lot of unforgettable memories like…
'I ask you, are you my master?' It was said by a certain blonde knight to him.
'Yokorube shonen! For your wish will come true!' Said by that fake priest.
'Trace On!' To Lorelei in the bedroom
'Commit suicide Emiya Shirou, you and your ideal are trash.' Said by an alternative version of himself.
'Dare to copy this king treasure FAKER?!' Said by a certain blonde king of asshole.
'Seigi no mikata (Hero Of Justice).' To himself and Kiritsugu.
'Boy, this is why am in Rider Class.' Said by a certain purple head goddess before she showed him why exactly she's worthy of the class Rider.
No wonder she's 'Rider', she's one hell of a rider.
There's also that time when Rin-
"Shirou?" He snapped out of it as his brother-in-law spoke.
Shirou smiled awkwardly as he started to scratch the back of his head. "Sorry, I was thinking about which unforgettable memories should I talk about."
Alex nodded and replied. "That's understandable, while you think about what unforgettable memory you want to talk about with me, why not let me tell an unforgettable memory since it's only fair."
Shirou nodded and said. "Alright."
"There was that one time when Lorelei saw me having sex with a Einzbern Homunculus." Alex had that distant look on his face like he was remembering something nostalgic.
If before he was half-listening, now his attention was fully in Alex, this was going to be interesting he just knows it.
"Interested? Can't blame ya, it was the most horrifying and exciting moment in my life, let me tell you how it happened Shirou." Thus he started his 'noble' story of how he did missionary with a Einzbern homunculus.

"And so Lorelei coldly said to me, get dressed and cover my tiny worm." I didn't know what came over me, for me to talk about one of the most embarrassing moments I have in this life to Shirou, but I did.
Because that's what bros do, and I'll trust him not to tell anyone about it.
Anyway, the lesson of the story is you must not forget to put a bounded field in your room to avoid embarrassment.
Shirou smiled at me awkwardly. "I never experienced that kind of embarrassing situation and I can't exactly sympathize with you, but you have my condolences."
I rolled my eyes and replied. " I want no condolence, I want a story as embarrassing as mine, it's only fair."
Shirou scratched his cheeks a bit and hesitated, but only for a moment and decided to tell me his own version of embarrassing story.
—
I wasn't expecting this, while I did expect to hear his side of the embarrassing story, however what I didn't expect is that he mentioned how his version of holy grail went.
He explained to me, for me to understand his embarrassing story, I needed to hear this story first so that he would be able to understand.
As he explained his own version of holy grail and noticed that there isn't much difference between his and UBW ending.
Except for 3 major things, one that was the most noticeable is that they found out that Sakura is a master early on, and ends up allying with them with her own servant Rider.
Shinji is dead a year before the holy grail war started and lastly Illya wasn't hell-bent on killing Shirou like every version of the war except the Heaven Feel.
Since they came to an understanding.
Like I said before, the ending is mostly the same with UBW, except Rider (Medusa) is still in this world and wasn't in the throne of heroes.
And yes, I know what you are all thinking, I'm thinking the same too.
How did she have enough mana to manifest in this world?
The answer is very obvious, anyone with a decent working brain would have realized how they did it.
Mana transfer.
And how does one mana transfer?
Simple.
Sex.
–
I wasn't sure what to think about this information, the fact that till this day Shirou participated in mana transfering toward Rider.
Isn't this considered NTR towards my sister?
But before my thoughts could wander around to the darkside, suddenly Shirou interrupted as if he read my thoughts.
"Lorelei knows about this by the way."
"She does?!" I was shocked at that information.
Shirou nodded with a serious expression.
"And she's fine with it?" I couldn't stop the disbelief that was leaking out of my voice.
Then Shirou gave me the most awkward smile that he made to this day. "Saying that she's 'fine' with it would be the understatement of the century, let's just say that we reached an understanding, anyway it's very complicated."
"Right…" As much as I'm curious to know the extent of this complicated relationship with Shirou and my sister, I did not want to open that can or worm.
It simply isn't worth the trouble, and I didn't forget who I was talking to, this was Emiya Shirou, a certified eroge protagonist.
No matter how ridiculous it may sound, I can't believe my sister is sharing him with someone other than her.
One must know how prideful Lorelei is, and to think they managed to even reach an understanding is something I can't comprehend it's clearly something that logic couldn't answer.

Finally after a half hour of traveling in a limousine, we arrived at my humble house and my sister still couldn't get over the fact that a Barthomeloi lives in such a peasant house.
I helped Ai take out the children from the limo and all of the sudden I heard someone behind me say.
"A-alex..?"
I shifted my gaze toward the suspect and saw that it was Bocchi and Mitsuha..?
What are they doing here?
No, that's not important and suddenly I facepalm myself and think. 'I knew I was forgetting something I hadn't told Hitori about my children!'
"A-alex w-whose kids are those..?" There was an unconcealed worry beneath Bocchi's voice as she asked that question.
Lying was an opinion nor I was planning to anyway. "They're mine Hitori."
With those blunt words, I saw Bocchi slowly fading from the background and completely becoming one with that air.
"Ah, was I too blunt?" I asked no one, but Mitsuha answered.
"Yes, too blunt indeed." Mitsuha said with a forced smile.

Hello, it's been a month?
Yeah, a month without update and a month of enlightenment, the fact that I'm less than trash without writing.
