The idea of Charlotte and Flora being friends GIVES ME SO MUCH LIFE AHHHH. And WOW F!Kamui’s voice in here is super cute.

This track was considerably easier since Odin and Niles weren’t here. Both of them have a bit of a slur when they talk, like most ‘rougher’ anime men and some women do. Xander and Leo are fairly articulate because of their royal upbringing, and Laslow… isn’t rough.

DISCLAIMER: MY LISTENING COMPREHENSION IS WORSE THAN MY READING COMPREHENSION. But this time, I can’t blame Odin.

the ending of this one killed me XD

TRACK 2: BIG BROTHER, YOU’RE ASKING TOO DIRECTLY

CHARACTERS: F!Kamui, Xander, Leo, Charlotte, Flora, Felicia

(Loud knocking on door)

F!Kamui: Yeeeeees. *opens door* Oh! Big Brother Xander! Leo!

Leo: Hey, Big Sister Kamui.

Xander: Sorry for the sudden intrusion.

F!Kamui: What’s wrong? Having you both coming to visit me together is rare!

Leo: We just thought that it would be a good time for some sibling bonding. Are you free right now?

F!Kamui: Of course! Hang on, I’ll make some tea—

Xander: Ah, no, it’s fine. Don’t trouble yourself over us.

F!Kamui: Are you sure? … Heh. Seeing you two here reminds me of that time.

Leo: ‘That time’?

F!Kamui: Yes. Having you two here in my room reminds me of our time in the Northern Fortress… Ah, but now I’m also able to move around freely.

Xander: Kamui…

F!Kamui: My dream used to be that I wanted to be outside with all of you and see your smiling faces and talk with you… Now that dream has already been fulfilled. It’s all thanks to you, Xander and Leo, and everyone else that I am finally free.

Xander: No. It was under your own efforts. You’ve become strong and left the Fortress, met with the people of Hoshido, and once more brought us all together. Everything is thanks to you.

F!Kamui: Mm… Yes!

Leo: Compared to how you were back then, Sister, you really have become strong. Do you need any new weapons or equipment?

F!Kamui: I’m fine. I have the Yato and my Dragonstone after all.

Leo: I see.

Xander: Then, Kamui, more importantly, is there anything that you want right now?

F!Kamui: Eh?

Leo: *thinking* Brotheeeeer, you’re asking too directly!

F!Kamui: Something… that I want? Why are you asking so suddenly?

Xander: Many of us were wondering about it earlier. But since none of us had a definite answer, we came to ask you. After all, it’s almost your birth—

Leo: AHHHHHH! KAMUI! A BUG JUST CRAWLED INTO YOUR WARDROBE OVER THERE!!!

F!Kamui: EHH?! W-Where?! *voice fades as she goes over to rummage through the closet* A bug? Where did it go?

(Kamui continues to mutter to herself in the background as she searches for the bug.)

Leo: *whispering* Xander, you’re being too direct! We’re trying to keep it a surprise, remember?!

Xander: Urgh… I apologize…

Leo: We’re supposed to be subtle about it, right? I’ll try to smooth things over, so leave this to me.

Xander: Understood. It’s in your hands.

(Kamui closes her closet and comes back, calling for Leo.)

F!Kamui: Leo! Leo! D-Did you see exactly where the bug went?

Leo: Oh, ah, ummm… Sorry. It must have been my imagination.

F!Kamui: What, really? Geez, Leo, please don’t scare me like that.

Leo: Hahaha… I’ll be more careful next time. Anyways, about what Xander was talking about earlier… It seems to be a hot topic amongst the people in the castle… “What do I want to buy next?” or something like that…

F!Kamui: Oh! So that’s why you were asking.

Leo: Yeah, but everyone’s personal taste is different, so there have been a lot of different answers. If you’re okay with it, would you mind telling us your answer? Weapons, armor, or accessories… If you were going to buy something for yourself, what would it be?

F!Kamui: Let’s see…

Xander: *thinking* I see… As expected of our Leo. With this, we’ll be able to narrow down what kind of item Kamui would like.

Leo: *thinking* Hm hm~ This is how it’s done, Xander.

F!Kamui: Hmmm… if it’s something from a shop, then I can’t really think of anything… More than that though, there is something that I really want.

Leo: Eh?!

Xander: Could you be a little more precise?

F!Kamui: Sure. I was actually going to consult with you about it later. But it’s not actually a direct answer to Leo’s question, so…

Leo: Ohh… It’s fine! My question isn’t that important.

Xander: Go ahead and tell us! Kamui!

F!Kamui: Really? Then I won’t hold back. To tell the truth, what I want is…

(Cuts back to the Mess Hall with Flora, Felicia, and Charlotte.)

Charlotte: *sounds of clinking silverware* W-What the hell is this?! It’s seriously too delicious! The flavor just melts on my tongue…! Ugh! As a woman, having such competition frustrates me…!

Felicia: Whoa~ I-It really is so very tasty! If only I could cook half as well as this…!

Flora: Hee hee! It’s still a bit rough around the edges though. Just a bit more and it looks like I’ll be able to make the perfect berry cake!

Felicia: Really?! As expected of my big sister!

Charlotte: But we still don’t have all the ingredients we need.

Flora: Then why don’t we have some tea and snacks while we wait? There are some nice baked sweets, and we have floral-scented tea too.

Felicia: Oooo~ It’s been a long time since I had your tea, Flora!

Charlotte: Heeh, how thoughtful! Then let’s have some tea before the men come back. Ahh… as expected, it’s nice when it’s just us girls. It’s so comfortable and I don’t have to watch my every move…

(Leo and Xander open the door.)

Xander: We’re back.

Felicia: Oh my goodness! Welcome back, sirs!

Charlotte: *fake girly act* Oh yaaaay! Lord Xander~ Lord Leo~ It was oh so lonely with just us girls here~

Flora: That’s an amazing transformation you just pulled off there…

Felicia: Um, um! So did Lady Kamui tell you what she wanted?

Leo: Oh, uh… yeah. More or less.

Flora: As expected of Lord Xander and Lord Leo!

Felicia: So? What did Lady Kamui say?

Xander: Kamui…

Felicia: *ba-dump ba-dump! ba-dump ba-dump!*

Xander: Flora. Charlotte. She wants the two of you.

Flora: Eh?

Charlotte: HUH?!

Felicia: Eh? EHHHHHHHH?! D-Don’t tell me, she wants you both as her queen consorts?!

Flora: T-That can’t be?! L-Lady Kamui…!

Charlotte: C-Certainly I would have an easy life then, but… somehow I have mixed feelings about this…

Leo: Ah, no, that’s not what we meant. She wants you in her detached force for her side mission. She said that she absolutely needed you, so we said yes.

Felicia: S-So it was something like that…

Charlotte: Whaaaat~? Your little Charlotte was soooo surprised~!

Flora: If she finds it necessary to increase the number of personnel… As expected, it’s something for King Garon after all, isn’t it?

Leo: I don’t know. We asked her to give us all the details, but she said “There are various circumstances,” so it ended without us getting a straight answer.

Flora: I see…

Charlotte: So? What time do we need to leave?

Xander: Right now.

Flora: Right now?

Xander: Yes. Make the necessary preparations and then meet with Kamui in her room.

Flora: B-But then what do we do about the cake? And we were so close to making the most delicious cake ever…

Xander: There’s no choice. We’ll have to try our best without you two.

Leo: What a miscalculation… I didn’t think that she’d want specific people instead of an item…

Xander: Not to mention it’s two of our best cooks here.

Felicia: I-It’ll all be okay! Even without Flora or Miss Charlotte, we’ll make it through somehow!

Leo: You’re surprisingly self-confident.

Xander: Do you see a chance of success?

Felicia: Yes! I’ll do my best in their place!

Everyone but Felicia: Urrrgh…

Flora: *voice cracking* T-Thank you… F-F-Felicia…

Leo: We’re all going to die, aren’t we?

Xander and Charlotte: Yup.
