“Masanori!” Ihei Shio waves his nephew over.
“Is today the day?” The kid quivers with excitement.
“It is,” Rikai intones.
“Masanori, today you begin your training.” Yusa hands a phone to Shio.
“Gaze upon it,” sings Shio, holding the pink-coated device out to Masanori.
Masanori frantically types into the phone. Finally he holds up a image.
“Not bad, not bad,” Shio says merrily. “But watch this!”
“This is Uncle Fruit,” Yusa adds.
Some time later, Uncle Hajime strolls in alongside Ui and Hairu.
“LOOK I MADE YOU INTO A MEME!”
Masanori races over to shove his meme in Hajime’s face.
Hajime subconsciously pats his cute face. “At least I’m cuter than that thing.”
“Shio, you didn’t.” Ui is not prepared for this day.
Hairu is ready.
“Hairu, no!” Ui cries. She winks in response.
Masanori grins. “I made us into a meme, too!”
Ui is almost too terrified to look, but when he does, he’s surprised at the tears that prick his eyes.
