Happy Birthday Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday, dear (Captain). Happy birthday to you! Congratulations, (Captain). Did that sound okay? Someone taught me that song, but I wasn't sure I could sing it very well. Hehe. This is my first time celebrating someone's birthday, and I like it! We wouldn't be here talking right now if you hadn't been born. Like, I know that sounds pretty obvious, but it's still sort of crazy to think about. From now on I'm gonna be there every year to celebrate your birthday with you! I'm already looking forward to next year!
2	✔	Happy birthday, (Captain)! Hehehe. You know, I feel kinda happy whenever your birthday comes around. I asked Bro Kou why that is, and he said it's probably because I really like you. That's how I realized that when something good happens to someone I like, I feel happy for them! So I hope a ton of good things are waiting for you from here on out. If what Bro Kou said is true, then I'm sure I'll have a great time as long as you're smiling too! I owe you a lot, so if you ever need anything, just ask! I wanna do what I can for you too!
3	✔	Happy birthday, (Captain)! You know, you've given me a whole lot... A whole lot of happiness—I can't even begin to count all the things you've done for me. It makes me think, is it really okay for me to be having this much fun? But then I realized that I can't just keep receiving from you. I need to give back too—and I'm gonna do a ton of that. I wanna make you happy too, so I'm gonna do my best to do just that! To start, here's a birthday present from me! You're really important to me, you know. So much that I'd practically do anything for you. Expect great things from me!
4	✔	Happy birthday, (Captain)! Thanks for letting me celebrate your birthday again, (Captain). I guess it's kinda weird for me to thank you for letting me celebrate, but... I'm just really happy. Thanks for always bringing so much happiness into my life. I'm really glad you were born into these skies. Hehe... Anyway, let's have a party! We're gonna pamper you a ton today! You better be ready, (Captain)!

Happy New Year Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Happy New Year, (Captain). Yep, I know what New Year's resolutions are. My goals for this year are to learn how to be more fashionable and to completely stop grinding my teeth. That way I can be more womanly like Sis Yuel and Sis Societte, you know? Choose: Aren't you cute enough as you are? What the! Since when am I cute! Choose: Bro Kou will be happy to hear that! Th-this has nothing to do with him! Gimme a break! Teasing me is no way to start off the new year! Damn it... It hasn't even been a day yet, and I already started grinding my teeth again! Tch. That one doesn't count! You're gonna help me kick the habit, (Captain)!
2	✔	(Captain)! Mochi sure is fun, isn't it? See how they puff up when you grill them? When you bite into it, it's chewy and stretches... but the puffy parts are thin and crispy! Then you dunk it in this sauce, right? It gets all sweet and sticky, and tastes so good! I'm really loving this! It's my first time having mochi, and it's so much fun! Not to mention delicious! How do you like to have your mochi, (Captain)? I wanna know!
3	✔	Streeetch. Haha! Look, (Captain)! This mochi's really stretchy! Sis Yuel and Sis Societte hammered some mochi and made these! Amazing, right? They're super chewy and taste really good... I want to try hammering mochi sometime too... Choose: Let's make some together. You mean it? Can I really try hammering mochi? But Bro Kou told me that you need to be in sync with your partner when hammering mochi... But I'm sure the two of us'll be just fine! Let's start making some!
4	✔	Happy New Year, (Captain)! Hm? You've got a present for me? What is it... Wait, it's rupies! What's this for? Did I help you out with something? Oh... I didn't know there was a custom like that! Okay, then I guess I should give you some New Year's rupies too! Huh? No need? But then it'll only be me getting a present... Okay, how about we go to a festival at a shrine together then? I'll treat you to some things there! Haha!
5	✔	(Captain)! Happy New Year! We're gonna go eat rice cake soup and then do some calligraphy, right? I'm so excited for everything! I feel like I can't sit still! Oh! I also wanna try flying kites! After we're done writing calligraphy, we should do it together! Ahh... So many fun things to do... It's like a dream. Joining the crew was one of the best decisions of my life. I can't wait to spend another year with you, (Captain)!

Valentine's Day Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Hey, can I talk to you, (Captain)? So today is when you're supposed to show appreciation for the people you care about, right? Well, since you're always looking out for me... I figured I'd try making you some tasty treats. I've never done it before though, so they probably won't taste that good... Luckily Sis Yuel and Sis Societte pitched in to make sure they're edible. Should be anyway. Um, so... Uh... Ugh, come on! Why does my chest feel so tight? Here! Take them, okay? They're all yours!
2	✔	Today's Valentine's Day. Which is why I tried my best to make these treats. How they turned out? Um, not so different from last time. Don't get your hopes up, okay? Huh? You think the wrapping is cute? Really! You really think it's charming? Well, the snacks inside aren't very good, so I thought I would at least make it pretty, buying a bag with a ribbon on it. Hey! Why are you patting my head? I didn't work so hard for you to do that! Ngh... I've got a hot head, so if your chocolates melt, don't blame me!
3	✔	Hehehe! Get a load of this! The chocolates this year are perfect! There's no point if only the wrapping's nice every year, right? So I practiced a lot with Sis Societte and Sis Yuel this time! I wanted to make something delicious for you, (Captain)! Whoa! Hey, you can't just start patting me on the head! You always do that! I mean... I'm not saying you can't pat me on the head. Just... not so suddenly! I get surprised... Your pats are very gentle though, so I like them a lot. Erk... It's... getting really hot. These chocolates are gonna melt...
4	✔	(Captain)! Happy Valentine's! I made something for you again! Hm? Oh, you're going to give me pats again this year... No, I don't hate them. H-how does my fur feel? Smooth, right? I thought you'd come to pet me. so... I used a nice treatment for my fur... I put effort in... and stuff... Wha! Wait! That hug was too sudden! But... I guess I don't hate this either. Hehe!
5	✔	(Captain)! Here's some Valentine's Day chocolate for you! Um... You're gonna make me blush if you smile like that... Huh? Are you not going to pat my head this year? Oh, there it is! Were you trying to keep me on my toes? Well... I had a feeling you'd do it again so I tried to make my hair look nice... I dressed up a bit nicer this year too... Ahh! Hey, don't tousle my hair like that! It took me a while to style my hair... But it's not like I hate what you're doing either... Hehe... It's okay, I'll just style it again! (Captain), make sure you pay attention, okay?
Gift		Raspberry Chocolate Cake

White Day Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Oh, whoa! Hey, (Captain)! What are the odds of us bumping into each other here of all places, huh? Or maybe you were actually looking for me? Haha. No? Not really? R-right, obviously! (What the hell, (Captain). Did you only come to see me as a joke?) Seeing the sullen look on You's face, (Captain) whips out a present kept hidden behind the captain's back. Is that what I think it is! I knew it was a return gift for Valentine's Day! Hell yeah! This is the first time I've ever gotten a gift in return! Thank you, (Captain)! You better believe I'll enjoy these!
2	✔	(Captain)... Heard you wanted me, but why the rush? Oh no... Have I messed up somehow? Is that why you called me to your room? Huh? Saying thanks for Valentine's? Ah! You're right! Today is White Day! You're going to give me a thank you present? Phew... Seriously, I thought you were upset. I'm so relieved. Hehe. Your treats are the best, (Captain)! Thank you! I'll munch through them with love!
3	✔	Another present in return for this year's Valentine's? You know, I feel like I keep receiving from you... And that's why I decided to prepare something in return for your return present! Wha? Another package? Is this... a return present for my return present that's in return for your present? You saw right through me! Gah... Guess I just can't win against you... Or that's what you think! I saw through you too, so I made sure to prepare a return present for your return present in return for my return present that's in return for your— Wait a second... Don't tell me that's... another return present for my return present that's in return for your return present in return for my return present that I gave in return for your present... U-um... Wait right here. I'll go prepare a present right now for your return present that you're giving me in return for... Aaack! Now I'm getting really confused! Fine, you win!
4	✔	You can't give me a return gift for my return gift, okay? This year, I'm gonna give you a gift in return for your gift and that's it! Last year was crazy! You remember how many treats I ended up getting, right? Huh? W-wait... The mountain of packages behind you... Don't tell me those are return gifts in return for the return gifts that're in return for— I-I can't let your efforts go to waste! I don't wanna wave off your thoughts just like that! Ngh... I was supposed to give you something in return for your gift, but I always end up being on the receiving end... Though, I guess that's okay! Hehe. It makes me happy, you know? I've never experienced anything like this before. Thanks, (Captain).
5	✔	Wow! Look at all this delicious candy! Thank you so much for giving me a Valentine's Day gift in return! Of course, I've already prepared a gift in return for your gift in return. Hehehe... It's a good luck bracelet! The materials aren't special or anything, but I put a lot of effort into making it! I went shopping with Sis Societte, Sis Yuel, and Sui... It took us days to pick out the right colored threads... Bro Kou helped me as I wove everything together. It was a lot of fun! So instead of preparing a mountain of gifts in return, I'm going to bet it all on this one bracelet! Hehehe... I bet you didn't see this one coming! Wh-what did you say! You also made a bracelet? Gah... I thought I was gonna win for sure... But... Hehe... Knowing that you put your all into making this bracelet for me makes me super happy, (Captain). And I haven't forgotten about the candies either! Thank you, (Captain)!

Trick or Treat Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Trick or treat! Give me something good to eat or suffer the consequences! How was that, (Captain)? I've been practicing for my first Halloween! Huh? You think I still have a long way to go? Fine then. Why don't you show me how it's done? (Captain) hides out of sight. After letting the suspense build to a palpable level, the captain unleashes the mightiest "trick or treat!" ever mustered. Eeek! I'm so s-s-sorry! I was in the wrong! Please forgive me! Just take all my candy or whatever! Huff... Huff... Geez... When it comes to Halloween, (Captain)'s on a whole nother level...
2	✔	Found you! It's Halloween today, (Captain)! Let me play some tricks on you! All right then, this is for always teasing me! Here comes Sis Yuel's ruffle attack! Ruffle, ruffle, ruffle, ruffle! Huh? You don't look very bothered by it... Aren't you embarrassed having your hair ruffled like that? Whaaa! Hey, you can't ruffle my hair back like that! It's against the rules! Ahahaha! That tickles! Hahaha! I give up! I'll give you some candy, so just let me go already! Huff... Huff... Guess I just can't win against you, huh?
3	✔	Happy Halloween! And that means... it's prank time! Heh heh heh... Today, I'll be giving you a tickle attack that's like nothing you've experienced before... with my tails! Take this, (Captain)! Ruffle, ruffle! Tickle, tickle! You's six tails come alive, moving quickly and enveloping (Captain) in an instant. How's that? Tickles, right? Huh? You look... awfully happy... Wait, what? You're saying it... feels nice? That can't be... You mean... I've lost again? You're invincible, (Captain)...
4	✔	... (Captain). D-do you have a minute? Don't you get the feeling that... everyone's putting a ton of effort into this year's Halloween? Huh? U-um, you know! Like that costume over there... They look so scary, I can't make eye contact... Th-think we could maybe... hold hands? For just a bit? Hehe... I'm glad I can depend on you, (Captain).
5	✔	(Captain!) Heeey! Trick or treat! Wait, (Captain)! Are you seriously giving me all of this? Pumpkin cookies, candies, chocolates, marshmallows, jelly beans... Wow... Everything looks so good! I was gonna play a trick on you, but getting all these sweets isn't half bad! Let's eat together, (Captain)! But once we're done eating... I've got some tricks up my sleeve to show you!

Happy Holidays Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Hey, hey, (Captain)! Look what I got! I found this present next to my bed when I woke up! Santa came to visit me! What a swell guy! Oh, yeah! I have to tell him thanks! But, um... How am I supposed to meet him anyway? Hm... As long as I stay on his nice list, maybe I can try to catch him next year.
2	✔	Hey, I saw Bro Kou in that room over there decorating for the party just now... Is there anything I can help with too, (Captain)? Preparing the dishes to be served? Th-that's a pretty important task... Are you sure you want me to do it? Well... you can leave it to me! I've been in charge of cooking and stuff recently, so arranging it nicely on dishes should be easy! Okay... So you want me to put the veggies around the meat? Gotcha! I'll make sure they look nice for everyone to enjoy!
3	✔	Look, (Captain)! Look, look, look! Santa came and left a ton of presents here! There's cookies and candy and cake and deluxe fried tofu! Apparently it's all for me! Here, I'll share them with you! Let's eat these together! Hm? Why're you staring at me like that? I just wanna share these and... what was it again... Oh yeah, "pay it forward"! Happiness is meant to be shared with the people around you, right? Hehe. I learned that from you, Sis Yuel, Sis Societte, and Bro Kou. But it's strange. The wrapping paper smells... kinda like you, (Captain). Oh well. Anyway, come on! Let's dig in together!
4	✔	(Captain)! Hey, (Captain)! Let's dress up as Santa! I've got a present for Bro Kou, but I was thinking, just giving it to him like this would be kinda boring! So why don't you dress up as Santa with me, and we can give Bro Kou a surprise! And take a look at this! I prepared something for everyone in the crew! I used the savings I had stored up for a while! Hehe, I hope the presents will make everyone happy. Come on, let's go, (Captain)!
5	✔	Happy holidays, (Captain)! Let's be Santa Claus together and hand out presents to the crew again this year! Remember how everyone was super happy about it last year? It's nice to receive gifts, but it feels even better to give sometimes. If it wasn't for you, Bro Kou, Sis Yuel, and Sis Societte, I wouldn't have realized this. Thank you! Anyway, no time to wait—we got lots of presents to deliver! Haha! Sit tight everyone, we're coming!

Fate Episodes

Spoiler Alert! These tabs contain full Fate Episode cutscene scripts with major spoilers about the character. View these tabs at your own discretion.

My Dear Bro Kou

You invites Kou out for a day of fun, treating him to all sorts of goodies. Kou, wanting to return the kindness, offers to pick out a kimono for her. When You comes out of the fitting room, Kou is nowhere to be seen.

---

Ninetails, a terrifying epitome of evil.

Sealed away long ago, she toyed with the fates of Societte, Yuel, Kou, and You in order to be brought back once more.

However, the four worked together to resist this cruel destiny and succeeded in defeating Ninetails.

They now live like a family as part of (Captain)'s crew.

On one of those halcyon days...

You exhibits strange behavior.

She paces back and forth before the door into someone's room, squatting on occasion.

You: Siiigh...

As if having made up her mind, she reaches for the doorknob.

You: Ah!

Kou: Um... You? What were you doing all this time?

You: "A-all this time," you say... You mean you noticed?

Kou: Sure, I can tell when it's you.

You: That makes sense. Hahaha... I mean, I can sense your presence too. Of course... Haha...

You: B-Bro Kou? Um...

You: You see, (Captain) gave me a bit of an allowance!

You: So I was wondering...

You: If... we could go out together...

Countless thoughts race through Kou's head in the second it takes her to say that.

Kou: (She paced around in front of my room all this time just to say that?)

Kou: (Must be a big decision for her.)

Kou: (Well, I definitely don't want her feeling lonely.)

Kou: Sure. Let's head out together—just the two of us.

You: ...!
Yay! I get to be all alone with Bro Kou!

Kou: Haha. Yep, that's right.

Kou: (There's no trace of Ninetails's last fragment, so it should be fine. Probably.)

Kou and You walk around town, holding hands all the while.

You: Bro Kou, Bro Kou! I'm gonna bring you someplace real nice today!

You: And don't even think about whipping out your wallet! Because everything's on me!

Kou: How nice. Are you really sure about this though?

You: You bet I am! I saved up plenty of money just for today!

Kou: (I know you've been helping out (Captain) with a bunch of jobs lately...)

Kou: (No idea it was just to go out with me though...)

Kou: You're such a sweetheart, You.

He gives her a loving head pat.

You's large ears droop as her tails wag with excitement.

You: Eh... Ehehe... That tickles...

You: Okay now! It's this way! You're gonna love it, Bro Kou!

Kou: (I wonder where she's gonna bring me.)

Kou: ...

You: Bro Kou! This is it!

Kou: A... tofu stand?

You: You love tofu too, don't you? Check out the bean curd! Sis Yuel recommended this place!

You: Fresh off the stand! Let's eat up while it's hot!

Kou: Ah, thanks... Nom...

You: Mmm! It's so soft and chewy...

Kou: Yeah, it's fried to a perfectly crisp brown. Although...

You: Huh? Y-you don't like it?

Kou: Oh, no, no! I love the flavor. Thanks for bringing me here, You.

You: Ehehe, glad to hear it! We're headed this way next!

Kou: All right. Let's go.

Kou: Th-this is...

Kou: A teahouse?

You: You're a fan too, right? Sis Yuel said the green tea here is especially thick and full-bodied.

You: Freshly brewed! Let's drink some together!

Kou: Sure... What a pleasant bitterness. A refined taste to boot.

You: Whoa... This is bitter...

Kou: Ahaha...

You: And here's our next place of interest! Beautiful, don't you think?

Kou: It certainly is beautiful. But...

Kou: A natural garden?

You: I thought you had a thing for gardens!

Kou: I do, but...

You: C'mon, Bro Kou! I'll piggyback you to give you a better view!

Kou: Ah!

You: Huh? Don't you enjoy being piggybacked? Sis Yuel told me!

Kou: So she's the one giving you ideas, huh...

Kou: Anyway...

Kou: It feels like you're just catering to all my interests today, You.

You: Of course I am! I want you to be happy!

Kou: And I am, but you should be enjoying yourself too.

You: Just being around you keeps me happy, Bro Kou! You can be sure of that!

Kou: (What a sweetheart...)

Kou: I mean, it's your money after all. I'd want you to spend some of it on yourself—

Kou: Oh, I know. How about we go shopping for a new kimono for you?

You: A kimono?

Kou: Haha, that reaction tells me I hit the mark. Kimono shopping it is. I'll help you pick one out.

You: Bro Kou! That's so nice of you!

You: But today's supposed to be for you... I want to do stuff that makes you happy.

Kou: Seeing you in fashionable dress puts a smile on my face, You.

You: ...!

You: Okay, let's go!

Kou: Haha.

The two arrive at a kimono shop and delightfully browse the selection.

Happy to try out Kou's recommendations, You makes for the fitting room.

Clerk: It's this way. Will you be able to change alone?

You: Mm-hm! Not a problem.

Clerk: Great. Haha, what a lovely brother you have.

Clerk: He picked out such a fine piece. It seems to be just your size, is soft to the touch, and offers great breathability. It's also incredibly light and unobstructive.

You: Oh yeah? I didn't even notice...

Clerk: What's more, it's made of remarkably sturdy cloth to ensure that the kimono lasts.

Clerk: You might just be the nicest big brother in the world.

You: Y-you think so? Hehe...

Clerk: C'mon, go ahead and change and show your big brother!

You: Bro Kou... Ehehe...

You: I ended up being in his debt again.

You: He's always so nice to me.

You: This morning too. He realized what I was feeling and offered to spend time alone with me...

You: I sure hope seeing me in this kimono brightens up his day.

You: Bro Kou, sorry to keep you waiting! How do I look?

You: ...?

You: Huh? Bro Kou?

Clerk: He paid for the kimono and stepped out earlier. I wonder if something happened.

You: Wha...

You: Without saying anything to me?

The blood quickly drains from You's face.

She cannot imagine Kou leaving her without saying a word.

Whatever the case, something doesn't feel right about this.

You focuses her senses, searching for Kou's presence.

You: Why... Why don't I feel anything!

You: Bro Kou... Kou... Where could you possibly be!

You frantically runs around town.

You: Huh?

She finds... something.

Something that turns her world upside down.

You: No, no... This can't be true!

You: Bro Kouuuu!

---

Back to top

Give Him Back

You runs into a figure taking the form of Kou. It lures her to abandoned ruins on the outskirts of town, where the real Kou is captured.

---

You: Aah...

Sprawled out on the ground a short distance from the stupefied You is Kou's body, drenched in blood.

You runs over to check on him.

She immediately notices an abnormality and stops in her tracks.

You: Eh...

You: Who the hell are you!

You glares at the body of what was supposed to be Kou, its outline starting to turn to mush.

It slowly rises and flashes a creepy grin at You.

???: Ah? Aahhh?

You: ...!

???: Gee, how did you know? Especially when I look and smell juuust like him.

???: Is it the power of love? Aha, that must be it. Geh! Gehehe!

???: That delightfully terrified look on your face earlier... Kou being in a pinch really puts you on edge, eh? It can only be love.

???: Gehe! Gehehehee!

You: Ngh!

You: Urk!

Just as the being taking on Kou's appearance dissolves, a grating sound resembling scraping glass reverberates in You's head.

The sound then changes into words that flow into You's consciousness.

???: No worries, sweetheart. I wouldn't disappear on you.

???: I'll continue watching you as I always have.

You: Y-you've been watching me?

???: So tell me, Is Bro Kou your brother by blood? Or no?

???: If not, then all the sweeter that love is. Wish I could have some of it for myself. Too bad I goofed.

???: I know! Why don't you come with me? Just like all the others, show me the affection you and him share.

???: Just say yes and come on over. I can't wait to see what a loving pair of siblings you two are.

You: You're not making any damn sense! Where's Bro Kou! What have you done to him?

You: Rgh!

The uncomfortable sensation of dirt suddenly presses against You's mouth...

Forcing her to clamp it shut.

???: Shh... Could you stay quiet for a second? I'm talking now.

???: There's an abandoned ruin in the outskirts of town. You really ought to check it out.

???: Alone, of course. Definitely alone. If you want to see your brother in one piece again, that is.

A dull shattering sound rings in You's head.

Kou: ...!

You: (Bro Kou!)

???: Oh? You're not gonna scream? Gehe! Impressive! Very impressive! Don't want him to worry, eh? Must be the power of love!

???: Actually, hey, why don't we try that again? Whaddya—

Kou: You... Don't follow me no matter what... Calm yourself and get back to the Grandcypher!

???: Ignoring me, are ya? Hah! Now that's what I call love!

Kou: ...!

You: (Bro Kou... Bro Kou!)

???: Gehe... Well, you have your options. Take your pick, You.

???: I'm waaatching. I'm listeniiing.

???: Gehe! Gehehe!

You crumples to the ground, struggling to catch her breath as she collects herself.

You: Huff... Huff... The heck is your problem!

You: You with Ninetails?

You: No, can't be—that old hag gives off a different presence. You're...

You: A different kind of evil...

You: What do I do, what do I do... Need to ask everyone... for help...

You: Except I can't... It said to come alone... and that it's watching...

You: Can't risk Bro Kou's safety... I do this alone...

You: But Bro Kou said to run back...

You: Urgh!

You: Bro Kou... What do I do!

Kou: You're such a sweetheart, You.

You: Bro Kou... I might be too much of a sweetheart...

Give Him Back: Scene 2

You confronts the freak of nature that's captured Kou—and now her as well. It reveals that it wishes to observe the sibling love of the pair up close. When it transforms into You, she sees it as a chance to attack but is suddenly drained of strength.

---

Kou, lying on the ground, can feel the sensation of his limbs fading away.

Yet the entire time he's only been concerned with You's well-being.

You: Bro Kou!

Kou: You... No... Why...

You: I'm sorry... But I just knew that if I was the one captured...

You: You'd come save me no matter how dangerous it might be!

You: That's why I'm going to do the same! You're not alone, Bro Kou! We're getting out of this together!

Kou: Appreciate it, You...

Kou: But you have to leave... That thing is dangerous... Go alrea—

Kou: Gwah...

You: Bro Kou!

???: Sweeeet. Loves makes me so jealous. Wish I could have some of it for myself.

You: Screw you! Why you don't just drop dead!

Wreathed in flames, You charges forward, ready to torch the evil presence that seems to be torturing Kou.

But her flames fade away before she makes contact with anything.

You: !

???: Gehehe! Can't attack even though you know I'm a fake, can you? La, la—love is in the air!

You: Stop it! Taking on Bro Kou's appearance is just playing dirty, you filthy scum...

You: Let him go already!

???: How about no? Not when love's about to fall into my hands.

You: You're not making a lick of sense! What the heck are you even!

???: You really wanna know, huh? I'm nothing. Nothing at all. Everyone calls me a freak of nature though.

???: You see, I'm just dying to know what true love feels like.

???: I want to see it firsthand.

???: Which is exactly why you two are going to spend an eternity loving each other right before my eyes. Well?

???: And don't worry—you won't be alone. I'll make sure you have plenty of friends to accompany you! The more love, the merrier.

???: I'll be drowning in everlasting love. Forever and ever.

You: How about hell no, you damn freak!

You: Me and Bro Kou belong with (Captain)'s crew, where Sis Yuel and Sis Societte are waiting for us!

You: Wouldn't go along with you in a million years! Back off from Bro Kou!

???: ...

You: ...?

???: Gehe!

???: Gehehehe!

You: ...!

???: Ooh, spunky! Quite the display of love there!

???: Now just keep it going!

Taking advantage of the instant in which You is completely dazed, the freak of nature closes in on her.

It places a hand on her quivering shoulder...

And gradually shifts in appearance from Kou to You.

You: Wha...

???: Whoo, I'm literally you now. Gehe, gehehe!

???: And as you, I'm going to win over the love of (Captain), Sis Yuel, and Sis Societte!

You: ...!

???: Oh, but you noticed right away that I wasn't Kou. Strange, I've fooled everyone else up until now.

???: Could the love between you two be that strong? Gehehe! Yep, yep, that's gotta be it!

You: I don't know what the hell your problem is. How about you just tell me what you want...

???: Like everyone else, I wanna know what love is. That's why I'm gathering people from all over to observe.

You: You're full of crap!

You: Don't know if that's your attempt at scaring me into submission, but it's not gonna work!

You: Because I'm not afraid of myself! Only need a second to bury you six feet under! Time to die!

???: What's that? You think you can beat yourself? Can you reeaally kill yourself?

You: Heck yeah! I've done it before, and I can do it again!

However...

You: Wha?

You: Huh...

Drained of strength, You collapses to the ground.

Give Him Back: Scene 3

It turns out the freak of nature possesses the ability to drain the power and presence of the person it's imitating. Before it can gain full control over You, Kou—pushing past the incredible pain he's in—stabs the freak of nature and forces it to withdraw. You then hurriedly piggybacks Kou back to the Grandcypher for safe harbor. Unbeknownst to them, the freak of nature continues to watch from the shadows.

You: Why am I... feeling so weak...

???: Gehehe! Gehehehe!

You: Mng...

The freak of nature mercilessly kicks the fallen You.

Unable to withstand the impact, her body goes flying into the wall.

You: Gwuh!

???: Like I said, I'm literally "you" now. Don't you get it?

???: That includes every facet of you, including your powers and presence. The person I'm copying becomes an empty shell of themselves.

???: I can use my newfound powers or hide my presence like the flick of a switch.

You: (Meaning it has full control...)

You: (Must be why it didn't have Bro Kou's presence that time...)

???: You know, I made sure I was Kou earlier.

???: What gave me away?

From the outside in, the freak of nature slowly melts away into the surrounding space.

Cold sweat runs down You's body as she watches the thing turn into a heat haze.

Tears well up in her eyes. With pained sobs, her throat quivers.

You: Huff... Huff...

???: Oh, there's no rush. I'll take my sweet time with you two later.

???: For now, I'm going to put you aw—

Kou: Don't count me out just yet...

???: Wha?

Kou: You laid hands on her...

You: Bro Kou!

Kou: Time to pay for it with your life, monster!

???: Figures... I wasn't copying your form just now.

???: Though I wonder if you'd have hesitated had I remained as You.

???: Tch, let my guard down.

???: Hold on a sec! How are you even moving with limbs like that? Oof, talk about a gross skin color.

Kou: Shut up and die already!

???: Gehe! Must be the power of love again.

???: How nice...

Kou: Pant... Wheeze...

You: Bro Kou!

Kou: Yeah... You okay?

You: Mm-hm! I'm sorry you ended up having to save me again though...

You: You're always around to get me out of a jam, while I—

Kou: I was able to move only because you came for me, You. Really appreciate it.

Kou: You helped me big-time.

You: Bro Kou...

Kou: Haha... With that beautiful kimono you're wearing, a smile would suit you so much better.

Kou: Ah, You... You look so nice in that...

You: Bro Kou!

As he shuts his eyes, You panics and listens for his heartbeat.

Seeing that Kou's pulse is faint but steady, You breathes a sigh of relief.

You: Now's not the time for flattery, Bro Kou.

You hoists Kou onto her back and rushes out of the ruins.

You: (Have to get back to everyone...)

You: (Whatever that thing is, I bet it's still alive... Could be pursuing us right now.)

You: (Need to get away fast with Bro Kou...)

You: Huff... Huff... Sis Yuel, Sis Societte... (Captain)...

You: Help us...

Battered and beaten, the warm sensation of her brother on her back is enough to keep her going.

A mysterious figure watches from the shadows.

???: Peeerfect. So perfect. I'm still dying to see more of that love.

???: I'll be waatching. I'll be liistening.

???: Gehehehe!
