Gobbling down the vegetable stew as quickly as possible, he wanted to get away from the table as fast as possible, for it seemed that the residential airport runway was glaring at him, daggers piercing through his skin. Geh! What's wrong with her!?
"So, Sakura here has been saying to me that after last week, you've suddenly...changed. Before, you were some whiny, stuck-up brat who only thought that in order to revive the family Crest, you needed to have sex with a Magician with great strength. But now? Now all I see is a...'man'... A man who has seemingly gone through the vicissitudes of life, a man who has seen everything...
A man just like father..."
At this, the whole group froze at the explanation.
"Yeah, you do have a point, sister. After last week, big brother Shinji went from being all whiny and sniffing my apron (hey, that's false accusation!), to patting my head, just like dad did whenever I lost against you in cards. Whatever happened to you...?"
At this point, Shinji knew that if he didn't cook up something, they might take him to the psychiatry, or worse, since they're all magi, they might take him to be dissected (not to brag, but the ones who'll be in danger won't certainly be him...). "W-well, the thing is, I got myself a girlfriend, and y'know, y'know, some certain... things led to other things to happen, and that's possibly why..."
In another dimension, beneath a leafy canopy, a certain silver-haired bombshell wearing an iron crown and a large black spear sneezed loudly many times, before an ahegao is seen spinning rapidly, eyes burning...
""Ohhhhh...""
As everyone began sharing knowing eyes, Shinji had no choice but to force himself to blush (living for millennia teaches you so many things...). Seeing that they were about to ask him more questions, he decisively dropped the bomb. "Yeah, but she had to leave back home, as her parents were giving birth to their 5 child, and being the eldest, she had to go home and support them. Now, enough about me, how about you lot? Have anyone you like...?"
"As of now, no. You know that since Kiritsugu and Irisviel are out, I am left all alone with Ilya. And since we're in our final year, we've got to put more time into our studies; otherwise, we won't be able to attend the university of our dreams. Hey, the flan is done. Anyone want some?"
As the timer dinged in the background, Emiya Shirou rose, ready to serve desserts. As he stood in the kitchen, taking out the flan, Shinji couldn't help but lean in forwards. "Quick reminder - Shirou's adopted, and a certain silver-haired loli has her eyes on him. Now, I wonder who'll get him first..."
Dusting his hands, Shinji rose from the table. "Thanks, Shirou, for the food. Now I'm going upstairs ('cause I'm full), so in the meantime, why don't you hang out with Sakura and Rin? Oh, and don't worry about uncle Kariya, he's busy in Tokyo with another book exhibition. Won't be back until Monday..."
Leaving the dining room, Shinji chuckled as he felt sparks flying in the air, the girls edging to claim a certain Hero of Justice for their own (Hey, back off, he's mine! - A certain German loli who can't stop sniffing her brother's used shirts). Just as he was about to enter his room, the chat room suddenly lit up.
[Ding! Good morning (or evening, depending on where you are), everyone! This is your lovely administrator speaking here! I have received an urgent request for help from one of our members...]
