Qianyin has been on cloud nine lately. The reason? After accidentally catching her niece and a friend capturing a rampaging Clow Card, she discovered that she might have awakened some extraordinary ability of her own.
For instance, while she's asleep, she can enter her own mental world. There, she finds a warmly decorated kindergarten surrounded by uncultivated land. She can decorate it however she likes, as long as she completes the kindergarten's tasks.
What does a kindergarten need to do? Raise children, of course!
Unable to spend much time outdoors due to illness, and absolutely devoted to children, Qianyin eagerly opened the Little Ones Draw System.
She had to admit, the kindergarten had an excellent selection of children. Every little one she drew was cuter and prettier than the last. They each had their own quirks, but Qianyin didn't think that was a problem.
She traveled with the children through all kinds of dream worlds, and the kindergarten was always full of laughter.
Then one day, a child wrapped from head to toe in bandages stood before her and asked the question on every child's mind:
"Sister Qianyin, why do you take such good care of us? Does it really mean anything?"
"Because every child deserves to be loved. I simply did what I believed was right."
They're stray dogs with no home, so I'll give them one. I'll stay by the children's side as they grow up, until none of them feel that something is missing inside
"Welcome to the Dream Home. I hope the love you find here gives you the courage and strength you need."
At some point, people in Yokohama began waking from their dreams with an incomparable sense of peace. The feeling affected their everyday behavior, and sometimes even gave people who had never met a strange sense of familiarity with one another.
They even began finding all kinds of beautifully wrapped gifts and supplies beside their beds.
They suspected it was the effect of an ability, but their investigations came to nothing, so they let the matter drop.
Years later, their world suddenly merged with another, and the barrier between the two worlds disappeared. They remembered everything from their dreams.
It turned out that in dreams they had long since forgotten, there had been a gentle big sister who stayed with them through the hardest times of their lives.
"I've found you, Sister Qianyin."
"So now, should we be the ones to stay by your side in the real world, where you're all alone?"
P.S.:
1. Mainly Bungo Stray Dogs. Cardcaptor Sakura is just the backdrop, and there will also be appearances from other anime. They won't get much screen time.
2. A healing story about raising children. No couples in the main story; the bonus chapters pair Qianyin with Chuuya.
