"A mixer?"
Ran Mouri repeats in surprise inside the Poirot Cafe, her eyes reflecting the face of the older brother across from her.
Shoichiro Mouri nods, cutting his sandwich as he eats. "Mom said she wants to see me dating someone, so I'm planning to go to a mixer my friend is hosting, "
"Bang!"
Before he can finish, a glass of juice is set down hard on the table. The blond, dark-skinned waiter beams, a terrifying darkness looming behind him. "Your drink."
"?"
A chill shoots up his spine. The handsome, dashing young detective stares blankly, bewildered, as the waiter hurries away.
"What's wrong with Amuro today?"
He turns his head and sees the cutest girl in the world, his little sister, blushing all over and cheering him on.
"Big brother, you can't rely on mixers alone to find love. You should pay more attention to the people around you, too!"
Shoichiro Mouri: "?"
Amuro Tooru, given an encouraging gesture: O(∩_∩)O

Blurb:
A pitiful little kid came to live with Wanbo Mingzai's family.
Supposedly, the child belonged to a friend of his father's who had been murdered. With no relatives to rely on, the kid ended up at their house.
...Hmph. He's little and mute, no wonder nobody wanted him.
Wanbo, who lazily made this comment, was promptly given a knuckle sandwich by his mother, and had no choice but to start looking after the kid.
The thing was... after comforting the child during a nightmare and helping him deal with a few groups of bullies, Wanbo seemed to have become the kid's favorite person.
Watching the kid cook on a stool, waving a spatula around, Wanbo fell into deep thought.
...Is this kid an angel? How can he not get mad after being talked about like that?
Then why did he cry when he found out Wanbo was going to a mixer?
*
Pairing: A sharp-tongued, scheming, lazy slacker genius of an adoptive older brother who seems hopelessly oblivious but actually knows exactly what's going on (top) x an insecure, clingy, considerate, affectionate little sweetheart of an adopted younger brother who tries to carefully claim his older brother for himself, thinking nobody has noticed, Hiro (bottom).
A childhood-raising arc at first, with Wanbo seeing Hiro only as his little brother. Romance later on. Congratulations to clingy Hiro for finally getting what he wanted!
Mostly everyday life, with a healing theme.
