(Katekyo Hitman Reborn! + Bungo Stray Dogs) The Brother Who Doesn't Exist

As someone from Yokohama, I consider myself perfectly normal. I'm not cryptic, I won't suddenly get in a bad mood one day and join the five buildings next door just to become cannon fodder, and I definitely won't decide that being someone who can't pass censorship has no future, then defect and turn against the whole organization.

"Hey... Furei, did you call me over just to roast me?" My friend poked me, looking glum.

Well, actually, it was because I'm a normal person and had recently started thinking again about the brother I'd made up in my imagination. So I wanted to ask my friend, who supposedly studied psychology, to help me work through it.

When I was little, I used to imagine having a handsome older brother with black hair, black eyes, and sexy curls at his temples. I hadn't thought about it in ages, but the memory suddenly came back to me over the past couple of days, so I went to my friend for help.

I turned around and looked at my dear friend. Why was your expression so strange?!

"Furei, how about you roast me instead?" My friend looked utterly sincere.

You little brat, you really do know everything, don't you!

As mentioned above, this is a companion story to the R-girl story next door. You don't need to have read the previous work to enjoy it. There are no pairings in the main story; there might be one in the extras, and it's probably with that friend. A puppy-love romance.

Updates whenever the mood strikes (emphasis on this).

Extremely Mary Sue, with a very baffling romance plot.

The story next door wasn't getting enough traffic, so I started this one to vent my urge to write. I'll write a couple of chapters whenever inspiration strikes. This is also an attempt at writing romance, purely based on my personal tastes. First person, no outline, no chapters in reserve, and I'm starting from scratch. Please read if you're okay with that.

Theme: Family belongs together.
