What I Want to Get is… [Part 2]
Ramona: Hm, as expected of Japan, the land of food. The variety of food stalls here is remarkable. It's truly fascinating, isn't it. Hey, little sister.
Xue: ...Tch.
Hikari: Xue is your little sister, right? You have to answer Ramo-niisan!
Xue: S-Stop treating me like a little sister...
Ramona: Ah, there it is, the star of the takopa, takoyaki! How about we share and enjoy them together? Little sister!
Xue: Ugh...
Koyomi: Oh, you're holding hands and enjoying the festival together. And Xue-san looks quite ladylike. Let me take a commemorative photo.

Xue: Th-That's a violation of my portrait rights! Don't take it!
Ramona: Thank you, Koyomi. You took a beautiful photo. Especially focusing on my little sister Xue's charm!
Xue: S-Stop it...
Koyomi: Little sister? What's going on between you two?
Hikari: There's a deep reason for this~. Right, Ramo-niisan.
Ramona: Ah, let me tell you. I've become Xue's big brother! Isn't that right, my sweet, cute little sister!
Xue: I already told you that you misheard me…!
Ramona: No, I definitely heard it. You said I'm like a big brother, didn't you!
Xue: Khh…! Just kill me now…!
Koyomi: Hm...
Koyomi: Since Ramona-san is a woman, wouldn't she be a big sister?
Hikari: That's right! So, Ramo-san is the big brother and big sister? What should we call her, "oni-nee-chan"?
Koyomi: Then she'd be like an ogre-like big sister. "Anei-chan"? No, "One-niki"?
Xue: Don't make this more confusing!?
Ramona: The name to call me is a trivial matter. A woman can be a big brother too. Xue, feel free to rely on me as your real big brother!
Xue: I’M TELLING YOU! Koyomi, stop messing around and help me out…
Koyomi: ...Well, I think I've mostly understood the situation. It seems like you're doing some sort of etude.
Koyomi: That’s a brilliant idea. Certainly, a brother and sister setting would make this PR video a good one...
Koyomi: So, the casting will be Ramona-san as the big brother and Xue-san as the little sister. Let's shoot a mini-drama themed around the deepening bond between siblings at the summer festival.
Xue: How did it even come to this!?
Hikari: Then I'll be the staff! I'll give directions with cue cards! Woooaaa!
Koyomi: Xue-san, please focus on your acting. Come on, if you are brother and sister, you must hold hands.
Xue: Don't take it for granted! Are you going to hold hands with Iroha too!?
Koyomi: I will connect them?
Xue: Damn it! You guys are too close!
Ramona: Because Xue is a cute little sister. Don't worry, even if I die, I won't let go of your hand.
Koyomi: Xue-san, this is also part of the job. Isn't the setting the life for an actor?
Hikari: Xue, read the cue cards! "Stick to the setting! You'll get paid!"
Xue: Ghh... Fine...
Xue: Then go ahead and entertain your little sister, you useless brother...
Ramona: Let's show the world Xue's cuteness.
Ramona: To make a good shot... there's no other option.
Ramona: Urgh...! It seems like even the pins dislike me. Ring toss may seem simple, but it's deep!
Xue: In the end, it's ring toss... Today, you—
Xue: No... I'm just being constantly manipulated by you, big brother...
Ramona: Despite saying that, you're still going along with it. Big brother is happy to see you enjoying yourself.
Xue: I'm not enjoying myself at all—!
Hikari: "Now get sentimental!"
Xue: —Well, alright. I guess there are some nostalgic feelings too...
Ramona: I see, that's good. I'm glad you cherish me, Xue.
Xue: ...
Hikari: "Now act goofy!"
Xue: Don't be ridiculous!?
Ramona: What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell? If you're tired, you can lean on my back.
Xue: Oh God, it really feels like I'm talking to my actual brother...
Ramona: Haha, what are you saying? I am your real brother, aren't I?
Ramona: Always rely on me like you usually do... No, pamper me.
Xue: Useless brother...
Ramona: It can't be helped. With such a cute little sister like you, it's only natural for me to get excited.
Ramona: All thanks to Xue’s love for her family. I'm lucky to have a little sister like you. Thank you.
Xue: Sh-shut up...
Hikari: "Now the emotional finale!"
Xue: …Look, let's get the ring toss over with. I'm sure my brother will fail anyway.
Ramona: That's right. So, for the final shot… What should a big brother do at a time like this?
Xue: If it’s an older brother…
Xue: ...You should do whatever you like.
Ramona: Hm. As a brother, I'd like to throw with my sister. What do you think, sister?
Xue: If that’s what you want to do…
Koyomi: Hehe, what a wonderful turn of events! Now, let's see if the power of brother-sister bond will be a great success!
Xue: What a noisy outfield...! Come on, let's throw together in sync. Idiot brother!
Ramona: Yes, let’s finish with a happy ending. Ready, set!!!
Shopkeep: Congratulations! You won the first prize! You have won a prize!
Koyomi: Cut! We've got a great PR video! Xue-san's little sister act is realistic and tasteful!
Hikari: Mhm, mhm! Xue is full of charm!
Xue: It's complicated... Even though we got the prize and all, if that video gets used...
Ramona: It's fine. I saw her in a different, cuter light than usual.
Xue: H-Hmph! I only acted well to trick you! It's fine if I win the ring toss, right?
Ramona: Yeah, you're the winner. Thanks to you, I had as much fun as I wanted. Thank you, little sister.
Xue: Seriously, you're such a smug one...
Ramona: Well, we still have time. How about it? Why not use the power of the deepened brother-sister bond to overwhelm the festival?
Xue: ...Hah, forget about it. You’ll end up causing a scene at the stalls.
