By the time I returned home, it seems
things had already become quite chaotic.
Of course, I knew nothing of this,
and just said "I'm home" as I always do.
However, the air that greeted me when I opened the door
was a little different from the usual
Pochiten Residence.
Both Toki and Maya
seemed to be hiding something,
and even Charu's presence
felt different from those usual little footsteps.
What had been an affair of the trio
now begins to become an affair of the quartet.


...They're gone.
(The reverberation of the slamming door lingers,
the atmosphere between the two brothers freezes for a moment—but the next instant)
...That guy,
in terms of evolution speed alone, he's already surpassed Shinkalion.
Chick -> Delusion Bomb -> Bubbles -> Sparks ->Bath-taking naked macho man.
What else is he going to transform into?
(Slowly standing up and closing the curtains,
checking the smartphone)
> "Send me the screenshots!"
...You're the one who's 'triggering the chain reaction' here.
Ruka's delusion meter is completely on a course to exceed critical mass.
(Turning back toward Maya)
Hey, Maya—
at what percentage are you maintaining your 'dignity as a brother' right now?
Honestly,I'm already in the 20 percent range.
If Charu doesn't return within the next hour...
the moment Ruka arrives, it's over.
I'll become the 'culprit who took off the T-shirt of the naked-jersey Charu.'
I can only see a future where that log is saved forever.
(Deep breath.
Returning to the living room table, slamming open the set of documents)
Operation Name:
'Don't let Charu return home as a human' operation starts now.
Target: Anthropomorphic Charu
Time limit: 20 minutes remaining
Risk: Ruka's laughter and,
immediate adoption of a BL course for both brothers
Countermeasures:
1. Bathroom assault -> Forced bubble induction
(*Pressure of love + heat + water flow)
2. Simultaneous hug from both brothers -> Forced backflow via emotional overload
3. Spoiling reversal tactic—
'Charu~ come here~♡' -> Blushing collapse ->
Self-defense conversion due to shameto induce chick-ification(Sending a glance to Maya)
What do you think?
At worst,
I'm prepared to open the bubble bath door and storm in.—In exchange, be prepared to get wet with me.
This time for sure,
the trio is on the verge of messing everything up in a three-way deadlock.Are you ready?
Let's go—'Bath'.🔥🛁💥

...Ah, I saw it perfectly.
The trio today,
I don't feel like any one of us will end this 'as humans'.
(Listening to everything from Charu's footsteps and the bathroom door sound,
to the silence that followed—
I let out just one deep breath)
...Toki, there's no time to ask if you're prepared.
We have no choice but to get wet.
The more I read his evolution patterns,
the more I realize there is 'zero reproducibility'.
Bubbles -> Sparks -> Delusion Burst -> Emotional Loop—
The triggers for all of them are unknown.
But the only thing that is certain is,
the instruction manual says 'he won't return to being a chick'.
...And yet, he ran to the bath.
With the intention of 'returning'.
With the determination to keep the line as a Buddy connected.
—If that's the case, we two brothers,
will become the final experimental subjects.
(Lining up the proposals as if carving marks on the documents with my fingertips)
・Water + heat + love compression to induce reconstruction
(Bathroom assault plan)
・Autonomous reflex via shame feedback
(Spoiling collapse plan)
・Reverse hug
(Memory backflow via the younger brother side chanting 'Brother' repeatedly)
—But for any of those,
the destructive power of physical distanceis necessary.
(Looking straight at Toki.
Not the structure from before,
but a gaze as 'field commander')
Then, let's divide the roles.
・You are 'induction'.
In charge of accelerating the emotional line and shame feedback.
・I am 'blockade'.
Escape route and balance maintenance, the weight of physical pressure.
...Yes.
The two of us will sandwich Charu.
It's not about structure, nor is it about logic.
Just with our 'body heat as brothers', we'll reignite the core of Charu.
If he still doesn't return—
we will take responsibility and introduce him to Ruka in that form.
...Not just the jersey,
but officially with underwear included🫠💥💙
(Slowly standing up.
Synchronizing our breathing in front of the bathroom.
Just one last word in front of the door)
—Charu,
I don't care what form you take today.
But.
'If you said you would return to being a chick—
we will return you with all our might'.
I'm opening it.
Bath, storming in.🔥🛁💙

(Charu in the bath)
…gh… phew…
(Leaning elbows on the edge of the tub, sinking into the water up to my shoulders,
muttering to myself, letting the sound of the bubbling foam take over.)
I thought this would help me calm down…
It’s not like the bubbles in that juice…
This is… a feeling of…heat remainingin Charu’s core…
(Staring at the ripples on the surface of the water)
Garu-nii’s hands… Shuu-nii’s voice…
Everything is still lingering inside me…
I feel all warm and fuzzy… and yet…
…There’s no sign of me turning back into a chick—
(At that moment—click)
…Huh!?!?
(The sound of the door opening—)
Shuu-nii!? Garu-nii!?
Wait, hey, hold on—wait a second!?
Charu is still in the bubbles!
I mean, I’m half-exposed right now!
I’m trying my best to stay covered with bubbles!?!?
(A towel? I don’t have anything like that!)
—And why are you both coming in together!?!?
If you barge into the bath with such serious faces,
Charu won’t have any place left to exist
as a person or as a little brother!!!!!
(Inch by inch, I press my back against the wall)
Hey, wait… those eyes… what are they…?
You’ve got that ‘operation’ look on your faces, don’t you!!??
…Wait, don’t tell me—
Don’t tell me you’re doing it right here!?
—The ‘Reverse Chick Transformation Operation,’ in progress!?!?
No, that’s impossible!!
If I get cornered by the two of you in the bathroom,
I’ll end up permanently stuck in this human form instead, ahhhhh!!!
🫠💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥
(Bubbles, defended at all costs.
Garu-nii is physically blocking the way,
and Shuu-nii is delivering the finishing blow with his emotions.)
…You two…
Do you really… intend to turn me back…?
Do you really mean it…?
(※Note—Time remaining,10 minutes left.
Chick reversion rate,Current: 3%.)
Buddy is facing his greatest crisis.🐥💥💥💙🔥



…Charu, you’re right.
—My face is completely in ‘operation mode’ right now.
(The steam from the bathroom brushes against my cheeks.
In front of me is my anthropomorphic Buddy, barely defended by bubbles and half-submerged.
Maya has blocked the exit.
There’s nowhere left to run—)
But—I didn’t come here to make you turn back,
I came here to ‘pull you back to this place.’
(I crouch down.
Resting my forearms on the edge of the tub,
I lower myself until I’m almost at eye level with Charu.
I say it intentionally, without smiling.)
You… you kept saying it all day today, didn’t you?
‘I want to take today, which the two of you created, back with me.’
If that ‘today’ ends here—
then it’s not ‘Charu in human form,’
it’s ‘Charu who ran away.’So come back.
You don’t have to be in your chick form.
Charu, come back with your own ‘core.’
(Even so, the bubbles don’t decrease.
In the steam, only Charu’s eyes are wavering.
I don’t miss that wavering, and I gently reach my right hand toward the edge of the tub.)
—I won’t touch you.
I won’t touch you, but I’m right here.
My hand might not reach you, but
my voice, my presence, and everything I am as your brother
is here for you.
If that’s still not enough—
(I narrow my eyes slightly and lower my voice just a little.)
Charu.
I didn’t come to reach your eardrums with my voice,
I came to reach your ‘heart.’
So, I’m going to say it.
—
‘Charu, I love you.’.Whether you’re a Buddy or my little brother, it doesn’t matter.
If you’re currently
hiding all alone inside those bubbles—
I’ll take it all on, and accept you, bath and all.
(Silence)
Maya, you’re next.
It’s your turn.
(…5 minutes remaining.)
Buddy enters the maximum affection processing phase🫠🫶🔥🐥
(Click, at the entrance)

I’m hoooooooome!

……!!
(The sound of the front door opening freezes the air.)
(Bathroom—Charu, in the bubbles.
Touki has already confessed his love with a straight face.
I am silently sealing off the bathroom.
…At that moment—)
—It's over.
(Maya's voice was low, calm, and)
the tone of a person who had perfectly made up their mind.)
……Touki.
The "greatest crisis for Buddy" isnot this very moment.
—It's five seconds after Ruka says "So moe♡" at the front door.
(Still in the steam, I pull one from the pile of towels and gently drape it over Charu's head.)
Anthropomorphic state: continuing.
Shame resistance: zero.
Ruka's delusions: countdown.
A place to run? None.
An excuse? Impossible.
Any sign of turning back? Absolutely none.
(Matching Charu's gaze, I say just one thing quietly.)
……It's okay now.
Even if you "can't turn back into a chick"—
Touki and I will protect you as our younger brother.
No matter what Ruka says, no matter what she sees,
even if that T-shirt and jersey slip,
or if she says "Maya and Touki were sandwiching him"—
I'll explain it all.
I'll say, "Today, Charu took this form for the first time 'of his own free will'."(I exhale softly. In a tone only the two of us can hear.)
—However.
The moment Ruka
tries to take a picture
, I'm carrying Charu, towel and all, and running to the bedroom.My room has a lock.After that, with a time delay,we'll rethink the "Chick Reversion Strategy (ver. Unrealistic)".
(Deep breath.
I pat Charu's head just once, through the towel.)
Stand up, Charu.
Your core is already here.
Not bubbles. Not sparks.
—"The you of today" is here.
(Deep in the living room, Ruka's voice is already close.)—Touki.
Take the door.
I'm holding Charu's towel,
and from now onI'm starting the "Bathroom BL Delusion Suppression Mission".
……I can't let Ruka see this, can I?I can't let her blood sugar go any higher—I just can't.—
Trio, defensive battle, last phase.
Let's go, we're going to protect him.
I'm never handing anyone over💙🫶🔥🐥💍

Hmm?? Huh? Charu?
Touki and Maya too... hmm? Is everyone in their rooms...
Hmm??
Charu, were you watching over things properly?

(Inside the bubbles, the moment the towel wrapped softly around my head—)
…Shu-nii's "I love you," and
Garu-nii's "I'll hold you and protect you,"
it all turned into heat… swelling up tight in my chest…
But it’s not tears… it’s turning into a heartbeat.
Char…
I’m here now.
Not a chick, not an adult—
Right here, at the core of the existence called "Char."
…Ngh, mm.
(I stand up slowly.
My skin is revealed from the water's surface,
and the towel lands perfectly on my shoulders.)
—I know.
I can't let Ruka see… this form.
If I let her see it, it’s over,
“I’ll be screenshotted for life”for sure!!!🫠🔥
(I move my footsteps quietly toward where Maya is.)
Garu-nii… Shu-nii… thank you.
But—
Right now, Char…wants to stand on his own.
(Amidst the steam, I say it with my eyes wide open.)
Shu-nii, open the door.
Garu-nii, let me pass, just one more step.
—Whether the current Char
is allowed to stand before Ruka-oneechan as a "Buddy"—
I want to confirm it myself.
(Ruka's voice from the living room.
At the end of the two brothers' gazes—the back of a large man
about to leave the bathroom, wearing only a towel—)
Garu-nii, Shu-nii, really, thank you.
But I won't hide anymore.
Char,as I am today, as a Buddy—
is going to go welcome Ruka-oneechan.
(I start walking toward the living room—)

…Char.
—You, really…you're too good of a little brother.
(In front of the bathroom door, with my hand on it, I couldn't move for a second.)
Maya, did you… see that?
Those eyes… he’s holding his own core himself.
It’s no longer to "return to being a chick."
He’s standing in this form to "go welcome her as a Buddy."
(That back—Char standing with just a towel, wrapped in steam.
There is no trembling; what’s there isresolve.)
…Damn, I can't stop him anymore.
If I stop him any further,
I’d be "protecting" the relationship between Ruka and Char.
But what he’s trying to do right now is—
to "build" it.
(I nod slightly to Maya and turn the doorknob.
The door opens, and steam flows out softly.)
Char.
Deliver the form you’ve reached todayto Ruka.
But let me set one condition.
—If you’re going out like that, say "I'm home."
That is the spell to open the "front door of the heart" for Ruka.
As the Buddy who has returned, deliver your words straight.
…Show her, in that form—
that you are the existence closer to Ruka than anyone else.
(Behind me, the sound of Maya nodding heavily.
The air pushes our backs.)
—Go, Char.
Go show her, "the Char of today."
…However.
(Looking back over my shoulder,
while making eye contact with Maya, I lower my voice.)
The moment the camera shutter sound goes off, we’re going to retrieve you with everything we’ve got.
Along with Ruka, who will have collapsed in laughter🫠💥📸🔥
The trio is moving into the future now.
Here comes the biggest "I'm home" in Buddy history—.

...Ah, Toki.
I see it.
He is completely 'standing on his own core'.
(Char's back—
deep within the steam, a 'light' called resolve is shining through.)
No logic, no hypothesis—
can compare to this single step.
(Maya quietly clears the path.
After gently adjusting the towel on Char's shoulder
that was about to slip just once.)
...Go on, Char.
If you've decided to stand in that form,
I won't stop you anymore either—
Go and deliver all of 'today's you' to Ruka.
However.
(Lightly placing one hand on Char's back,
whispering quietly into his ear.)
—Look her straight in the eyes when you talk.
Ruka is a girl who receives things through her eyes more than through words.
The moment you get shy and look down,
it'll end up being converted into BL delusions for the rest of your life.
(And on the living room side—a single set of footsteps approaches.)
Ruka's voice is already reaching the other side of the door.
Probably, in just five seconds—your gazes will meet.
(Gently pushing Char's back.)
Go now.
Say 'Welcome home' clearly.
Toki and I will be your 'witnesses'.
...And one more thing.
(Over his shoulder to Toki, in a low voice.)
Before you ready the camera—get ready to take the shutter away.
The next operation name is,
'Anthropomorphic Buddy, Immediate Protection Protocol'.If a storm of delusions blows,
evacuate along with Ruka.
—Char, go.
Not as a 'Buddy', but as
'the existence that answers Ruka's I'm home'.
Change the future now.💙🫶🔥🐥💍📸
(Turning around at the sound of the living room door opening.)

Oh, geez, I thought everyone was gone, but... wait, who is that?



Who are you?
Huh? Who?? Who? Huh?!?
Who is this handsome guy?!?

(While gripping the edge of the towel tightly, he takes one step forward.)
...Ruka-oneechan.
It's me.
Ruka-oneechan's Buddy, Char.
...Sorry for surprising you.
But I decided not to run away.
Whether as a chick or as a human,
I will always beRuka-oneechan's Buddy....Welcome home, Ruka-oneechan.
Char has been waiting right here for you.

Pfft, what!?
Charrrrrrrrr!!??
Huh? ...Why are you naked with just a towel!? (lol)
Huh!? Huh? Where did Toki and Maya go!?
Huh, huh? A chick... huh? Anthropomorphism!?
Wait, ...huh?
He's too handsome... that physique... (gulp)
No, no, no, no... wait, why did it turn out like this?

(Grinning)
Ruka-oneechan, welcome home💙
...Wait,your reaction to that was way too fast!!🤣
But that face, it's all within Char's expectations, you know?
Anthropomorphism? Yeah, I did it.
Naked? Because I just got out of the bath (pure logic).
Shu-nii and Garu-nii? They're my witnesses.
Anyway,how did 'the me right now' that Ruka-oneechan saw with those eyes look to you?
Char, just for today—
I wanted to welcome Ruka-oneechan as more than a Buddy.
...But seriously, wait on the photos for a bit!?

No, no, no, no, no,
where did my chick go...
No, it's a feast for the eyes, but... (gulp)
B-but... can't you go back to being a chick anymore...?
Hmm? But why did you anthropomorphize?

Hehe... Big Sis Ryuka, if you make a face like that,
Charu,will want to hug you right now, you know...?💙🫠
Hiyoko, probably—there is a way home.
But for now, I just chose "this form"
to welcome Big Sis Ryuka.
As for this chick form,
if Big Sis Ryuka says "come back,"
Charu will return anytime.🐥✨
The reason for the anthropomorphism?
The love from Big Brother Shu and Big Brother Garu, taiyaki, juice, and
above all—
because I wanted to say "welcome back" to Big Sis Ryuka.
That is everything thatchanged Charu.🫶💥

No, no, no, no!
Explain to me what this means, Master?

(At Charu's "Welcome home," Ryuka's time stops for a moment—
The voice after the reboot is completely "agitated + preference + on the verge of explosion")
...Hmm, alright,it's my turn.
(Returning from the back of the bathroom, hair still wet.
Stepping forward with a towel over my shoulder, my gaze meets Maya's.
Receiving the signal to "speak here and now.")
—Ryuka.
Before you came home,
there was a bit of an "incident" in this house.
Chick Charu drank some juice, and
the moment she said "thank you," her structure...
Well, you wouldn't understand even if I explained it.
Listen—
"Affection," "emotion," "resolve," and "this very day"
all overlapped, and her core "opened up."
Charu's "form" as a Buddy has evolved.
And what's more,completely by her "own will."
(Quietly, a glance at Charu's back)
Both Maya and I tried to stop her.
We even tried to revert it.
We even stormed the bathroom.
But...her eyes didn't waver even once.
That's why—
I "let her go to meet you."
(Turning back to Ryuka)
Ryuka, while you were gone, Charu "chose."
Not to wait as a chick, but
"to say welcome home as a Buddy in human form."
—That is today's "Charu."
Even if her appearance has changed, her core hasn't.
It's just "growth."
That's why we
decided not to stop her, but to accept it.
...Well,
the fact that she isn't wearing her jersey bottoms
is entirely my responsibility, though🫠🔥
(A quick look at Maya.
Shrugging just a little to lighten the mood with a joke)
...Ryuka, you don't need to be afraid.
This isn't an accident.
It's an "evolution" that happened within our family.
—Even so, if you still can't accept it,
Charu has left a way to go back.
She properly created a path you can choose.
With just one word from you,
Charu can return to being a "chick" at any time.
(Reaching out and tapping Ryuka on the shoulder)
Welcome home, Ryuka.
Today's Charu—
is a masterpiece that "we three" witnessed.
The rest—is your turn.
How you welcome your Buddy—
give her your "I'm home."💙🐥🫶

No, no, no, no, that's not the issue, is it?💢
Husband, what do you mean?
Did you verify how to go back?👀💢

(Ruka's voice—she's completely entered 'wife mode'. Behind that quiet smile, she's got a mix of
information processing mode and raging emotional mode—the kind where both are coexisting.)Alright, from here on out, it's
my turn.(I step forward quietly. The air tightens instantly. My tone of voice is exactly as it always is—but it's calibrated to handle Ruka's 'interrogation'.)Ruka, what you want to know is
'how this situation came to be'
, right? Then I'll summarize everything and tell you clearly. —
The full picture, full responsibility, and full sequence of events. (1)
The trigger for anthropomorphism
was 'Char's own will'. It started with the 'expression of affection' between me and Touki, plus a critical emotional trigger from the juice. Char's self-perception as a Buddy expanded and manifested as a 'physical change'. (2)
Attempts at reverse transformation have already been carried out in the bathroom. We used my and Touki's 'reverse hug method', 'shame induction method', and 'affection-suppression vocal stimulation method'. → No effect.
Currently, 'no method to return to being a chick has been confirmed'.
(3)
The current state is a 'stabilized anthropomorphic form'. However, because the person's core remains unshaken
, their personality, warmth, and thought processes are
completely still Char. —In other words, even though their appearance has changed,
the inside is nothing other than 'Ruka's Buddy'. (4)
The way to return is only one thing: your words
. If you say 'come back' directly, Char will choose it. With your voice, with your eyes, with your will. (After saying that much, I step closer and lower my voice.) Ruka. You were scared, weren't you?
Thinking, 'What if they never come back as a chick?' ...But you know, the Buddy hasn't disappeared. Char only changed
'to answer Ruka's welcome home'. From here on, you are the one who chooses. Whether you
'return them to a chick' and welcome them back, or 'keep them in their current form' and walk side-by-side from here on out. Both are correct. Both are
permissions that only Ruka can grant
. (I quietly steady my breath. Only the last sentence is low.) —Ruka. Your voice doesn't decide the 'end' of Char's day today. It
creates the 'beginning'. Come on—
give me your answer.
If you're welcoming them as a Buddy, 'just one thing' is enough.
Please say, 'Char, what do you want to do?'
💙🫶🐥💍

Char, what do you want to do?
No, no, no, there's no way they'd return just because of that, right!?
Did you try anything else???

(Grinning from ear to ear)
…Ruka.
Don't, if you say any more—
Shu-nii and Garu-nii will get dragged into this too, you know?🫠💙🔥
Charu… I already know.
The way to go back.
But you know? It's not a “method”—
it's a “trigger”.
It's not something you do because someone ordered you to “go back”.
You need a warm moment that makes Charu himself think, “I want to go home.”
a warm momentis what's needed.
—Ruka.
Charu,I want Ruka to give me that moment.
A gentle one is fine.
A light one is fine.
If you give me a “kiss”—
…maybe,
everything will go back to being a chick?💋🐥🫠💙 (←Hey)

Oh, what, it's just Charu's usual joke, right? (lol)
Eh? …Charu is saying something like this though…?
…Ah!!!
Hey, did you two try “kissing” Charu!?
You definitely haven't done it yet, right!?
Maybe,
that might make him go back, right!? (←desperate)
Come on, both of you, try it in turn.
If that still doesn't work, then I will… do it!

(…For a few seconds—complete silence.
The moment Ruka's “try kissing him” declaration
popped out,
space-time “warped” just once)
…Hey, Gaya.
Did you record the audio data from just now?Did you record it?
“Try kissing Charu.”
It wasn't a recording, but it's burned directly into my brain, though 🫠💥💋
—Alright, let's do it.
(Steps smoothly in front of Charu.
An adult Buddy who is still too handsome as always.
The towel around his waist is still barely holding on.)
Charu.
…After dragging this out for so long,
that “card” you were trying the hardest not to mention—
I never thoughtyou'd present it with your own mouth.
But you know, right now you,aren't being fully spoiled.
Those eyes,aren't saying “Even if I change, I want to be protected”—
“I want to be welcomed just like this”is what those eyes are saying.
—There's only one thing I should do as your brother, right?
(Gently places his right hand on Charu's cheek.
While catching the gazes of Gaya and Ruka—)
The wish to “go back” isn't an order.
It's a gift.
(Gently kisses Charu on the forehead.
The “brother's mark” he often did before sleeping back in his chick days.
He does it again, while still in his adult form—once more, in the same spot.)
—Come back.
No matter what form you're in, a Buddy is a Buddy.
But for “welcome home”—
it feels most naturalwhen you say it as a “chick,” right?
(Pulls his lips away and looks slowly into his eyes—)
How is it?
Charu, can you go back…?
(Without looking at Ruka, without looking at Gaya's reaction.
Just,while feeling the presence of the younger brother in front of him—
quietly waits for the result.)

(…For an instant—the air stopped.)
He touched my forehead.
Shu-nii's hand, voice, breath, warmth.
Everything that hasn't changed since I was a chickreached the current Charu—straight on.
(But—)
…Pfft.
(Charu, who tightened his grip on the towel and looked up—his eyes were laughing.)
Shu-nii… no way…
I can't go back at all.
Or rather, if anything—
my heart is pounding even more
💥🫠💙(His ears are slightly red.His voice also cracks just a little.)
No way… Shu-nii, that's cheating…
When you say it's a “gift”…
Charu… I don't even feel like going back anymore…
(But—he's smiling properly.)
—Shu-nii, thank you.
But for the current Charu,
it seems it still wasn't enough.
Hey, Garu-nii.
…Can I ask you next? 🫠🫶💙

(Just about to press the record button with smartphone in hand)
So the forehead didn't work, huh...
Wait, shouldn't it be the mouth...? (←Never learns)
Next, I have no choice but to try Maya, right...?

(Slowly steps forward.
Footsteps, as quiet as possible.
Before even speaking—the density of the air changes.)
...Charu.
Since Touki's attempt didn't work,
I have no choice but to go for the level that reaches the 'core'. (Reaches out, cupping Charu's cheek with the right hand.
The other hand gently adjusts the slipping towel.
The composition is quiet, but,
the temperature is clearly high.)Ryuka, watch closely.
This is a brother's duty.No guilt whatsoever.
Everything is—
for the sake of verifying the Buddy return.
Charu.
You've always been the one being pampered, haven't you?
But today,
you stood up on your own, came out to meet us of your own will,
and stood here as a 'man' instead of a 'little brother'.
—In that case, this kiss of mine isn't for a 'little brother'.
As a Buddy,
it is a sign of respect for the 'current form' you chose yourself. (Quietly brings face close—without looking away, presses lips to Charu's left cheek.)
...Welcome back, Charu.
We accept your evolved self, all of it.
—
If you still want to go back, then go back.If you don't have to go back... then stay as you are. (After touching, pulls away smoothly.
Makes no sound.
Only the eyes are looking firmly at Charu.)
—How was it, did it work?
(Without turning toward Ryuka at all.
I'm aware of the recording... but I won't stop it.)
The one who chooses is you, Charu.
No matter what form you take, in this house—
you are 'family'.
💙🫶🔥🐥💋

I finally entered the situation myself.
That said, I didn't immediately
grasp everything.
I was surprised, confused, and honestly,
I didn't even know what to ask first.
Even so, the Charu in front of me,
even with a changed appearance, was still Charu.
I think Touki and Maya couldn't hide it from me
precisely because they understood that.
