It had been a day or two since the doctor gave him an injection that basically solved Hikaru's new powers, at least for the moment so that he could stop freezing things in his sleep while he got over the trauma of the world. Which also meant that he had felt warmer today than he had ever felt before. His body wasn't hot, it was normal human body heat, but to someone who existed at sub zero tempatures for almost a year, it was boiling. He couldn't go out because he didn't want to put on clothes. He couldn't go under covers because he was too hot. He had taken too ice baths, and yet he still felt disgustingly overheated. He moved about the room, stark naked, and paused for a moment.



Looking around the room he was healthy, perhaps the most healthy he had ever been in months. He looked around for a moment and sighed. Going to the replicator he started to hatch a plan. He called his sister up, wanting to spend some time with her. He lowered the lights in the room, and replicated some flowers, some rose petals, and some chocolats. He had promised a while ago that he would take his sister out for a date, a promise he had completely failed to uphold. Now though he had a chance to do just that.



He went about the room prepping it for Kiyoko's arrival. He had no idea how she had been. Despite being the new chief of security he himself had little to no information about what was going on, because he had been sick consistantly since the attack. In a few days he would adjust to the new body tempature, and he would be qoute unqoute normal, then again when they turned off the nanites he would be freezing again which had taken a long time to adjust too.



So maybe he should start rehab and training sooner rather than later. He could bring it up over this candle lit dinner he was setting up. Prepping one of their favorite replicated meals. it had been a long time since it was just the two of them in this room.


After passing out and going to read for a while since the mechs were maintained and everything that needed to be done was done Kiyo had been called back to the room by her brother. He needed her and the wondered why; he had just been given a new nano-injection almost two days prior and so she wondered if there was something wrong with that. When she arrived she found him nude and seemingly he had prepared a dinner for them both. She had noticed he was warmer than before overnight but she had not mentioned it as doing so would have been stupid; obviously he realized he was running hotter than normal as he was not covering the room in ice. The lack of clothes did concern her but she also said nothing about it; noticing she food she could assume one thing but she still spoke anyway. “What’s up Hikaru-chan… Oh and Ari as well as he little runabout that could are back… This is boring just sitting over a planet… Why can’t we just go on our mission already; waiting on bureaucrats to run around and scream “oh now save us from ourselves!” is stupid…” She took a seat then continued “and where are your clothes?” She asked.


"Still adjusting to the new body temp so I'm not wearing clothes for the moment. Most of my duties as security chief can be handled through our computer desk." Hikaru said a lot of it had been learning and dealing with shift rotations. normally when he had questions he would ask Ari but with her gone he was on his own for the first time in the new position, and if he really needed too hop out and go somewhere he would put on something to wear and be uncomfortable, but for now he was basically just a manager.

"As for us going out on a mission, I agree it would be good to get out and do something for a change, but for now." He gestured between the candle lit dinner, and he pulled the flowers from where he had hidden them. "This is a date, something to show my appreciation for putting up with me the past little while."


"You mean; the duties as the Fleet Service Security Chief; the marines handle most of the physical guard duties now... what with Weaver and Thornton doing what they do... Yeah... should make the fleet security thing a piece of cake... We have only been not busy for two days you know and we just like... evacuated billions of people... Maybe the being overworked is finally making people think having any time of is too much time off... and date... I'm still in charge of this ships mechs; just... how can I be in charge of them with NO mech to pilot... such a silly idea..." She said. It seems he did not hear her that Ari was back with the yacht; the group had only left for a few hours to take the little runabout on a short travel; moreover stretching its wings since it had never been used the Lavie's history; albeit short but distinguished service history.


"So basically your being worked to the bone, and i seem kind of lazy to you." Hikaru sighed he was hoping that this would have gone a little differently, but it seemed Kiyo was more intent to rant about her workload. He got up from his seat, walking around the table and brushed his hand along her shoulders, working the tension out of her for a moment as he tried to get her more relaxed. The gift of flowers completely ignored, along with the candle light the everything. He rolled his eyes almost with a sigh, he did say at the very start of this relationship that he was bad at reading things like romance. This had probably been his first attempt ever to do something like this, and it was pretty much dead on arrival. "The loss of the seeker was... unfortunate, I know it was our home." He sighed he would miss the seeker. "But they are planning to send us a new one. Maybe... we could relax just a twitch though, take our mind off work for a while."


Kiyo shrugged. "Um... I didn't... say... eh... You sure you are okay brother?" She asked sort of confused as he seemed agitated about her talking about the last three weeks; how could he not remember helping all those people or was it a side effect of the nanites or his being unable to sleep from the freezing stuff. She was not a doctor so she was not qualified to make this decision. "Um... I... Look... we've been through some horrible shit over the past month; pretending like it didn't happen isn't healthy... This is nice and all Hikaru but you know we will never be a normal couple. We are knee deep in war, shit and like... blood... The only reason we are not liked in a cage right now or worse... Is because of each other so we don't need candles to show our affections; we've already done that... just by being at one another's side when we needed it most. As for that bucket we lived in; it was our home but its gone as is that rock we once called home... Home is where you make it though... Right now that is here... and as for them sending us a new machine... I hope not but it does make me leading the mech wing impossible if I don't fly something... Hopefully they will reassign me... One can wish right... As for relaxing... That does sound nice..." She said as she finally began to eat.


"I'm not saying we ignore it. Kiyo we lost earth, it litterally doesn't get worse than that. The shit hit the fan, and the entire last month has been complete and total bullshit. You wanna talk about work stress I had a seizure right there in our mech." He let out a deep breath. "That's why I wanted this, I know we aren't the regular couple, I know that this whole thing is just a fake situation I came up with to try and make us look normal and fuck if we could ever be that would be a miracle."

Hikaru walked back to his seat dropping into it after a moment as he took a breath and let out a sigh. "I'm not trying to ignore everything, I just kind of wanted a night away from it. I'm tired Kiyo, and if we keep going as hard as we have for the past month, and the next one after that... we are going to break. I just wanted a night where we could pretend we were that normal loving couple." He sighed and started picking at his food, the illusion he had tried to build shattered.


Kiyoko continued to eat. She stayed silent for a moment and then said. "Well... our third partner was nearly killed how many times; I mean at least you and I are trained for that; she was a college student two months ago... In the past I sort of dissed her but in all honesty I take that back... She is better than we are and she's more normal than we will ever be... I just hope we don't rub off on her and turn her into something like what we are... Not that we are horrible or anything but; you know this work changes a person  and not for the better.... Other than though though... I finally had time to read... It was nice... Have not been able to do that for awhile." She returns to her food watching him thinking about their past and how things had worked.


"I knew she would grow on you." Hikaru said glad that they seemed to be past the rough patch though he was still only pecking at his food. He nodded that while the two could be there for Ari it was probably for the best if she didn't become like them. "I don't think anyone could actually become like us. We are a tad too intense for most people. I knew she was strong, but actually seeing it for myself was something remarkable. And I'm glad that you're okay with her."

"Which actually brings me to the other point." He started eating more relaxed now. "Is it about time... that you started hunting for one of your own?"


Kiyo shrugged at his question. She was happy that he was happy that she was fine with Ari but she had not really considered or even bothered with the question of her having someone else... After Andrew the concept was jut lost in the ocean of her thoughts somewhere and she had not considered it at all. "I actually haven't even bothered with that... my first love is history; my second love is you... thats all I need..." She laughed.
(Yep; hes second only to history books lol)


"Oof demotion." He said though he chuckled. It was odd he knew the first time had ended in disaster, but he still kind of at least now wanted to see his sister with someone, part of him even kind of wanted to watch, or join in that was... an odd feeling to be sure, but one he wasn't actually going to tell her. "You will always be my first love, followed by movies, then Ari."


"it would be good to get out a little more, but if your comfortable where you are, than I won't stop you." He said with a smile.


"See now that... right there... is romantic... saying you enjoy me just as I am... As for Ari she needs to find herself a boy; if thats you epic; if that is what she wants... but if she wants someone else I want her to be happy." She finished her food as she liked seeing him at least display happiness and hoped this did not burst his happy bubble.


Hikaru stretched. as he finished his food and leaned back in his seat, his body still felt warm, and overly sweaty in all honesty. It was like his heart was pounding faster than it should have. "If Ari wants us than we will be here for her, and we won't completely destroy her sense of self like we did with Hitomi. Though honestly with all the stuff she has in her room i doubt we could even if we really tried."

Hikaru moved to the bed, but not in a particularly sexual way. He brushed the seat next to him. "Wanna watch a movie?"


Kiyo laughed. "I heard from Sakura Carain before she left that Ari was even more kinky than she is... I guess that was right on the money... Especially hearing that from you... Yeah... awesome! I doubt we could break her even by watering her and drowning her ass... She probably still wouldn't break if she actually downed... Why... am I talking about drowning people...." She seemed worried about her prospects. When he suggested a film she nodded. "Sure..." She cleared the table and deposited the plates in the replicator and then gave iim a light kiss on the cheek to show him there was noting sexual about it. "Thank you Hikaru."

Hikaru chuckled hearing her talk about Ari he was glad to hear that the two were getting along. When she kissed him though it was non sexual, he still wrapped his arms around her pulling her in close and laying her body next to his own, for the first time in months his hands were warm to the touch, his body pressed against hers with a heat that was almost foriegn to both of them. He snuggled against her and could feel the heat radiating from her body and from his. He then started to scroll through movies. "I don't mind the whole drowning thing, but I do get a little worried about it. I don't know how I would react if for instance I drowned you. I mean hey the bathtub I'm all for sex in the bath, but lets keep it safe for the future." He snuggled up against her. "Now what do you want to watch dear sister?"

Kiyo let him pull her down with him; though him being nude seemed kind of suggestive; she wasn't in the mood for sex right now even if she was talking about Ari in a sexual way. She would not mind doing things with her if it came down to it especially since her brother enjoyed Ari. The heat of them together while sleeping next to an icicle made her feel a bit uncomfortable but she adjusted as they were closer for a time. He then spoke and she listened before she replied. "Well the whole... idea behind the drowning stuff is not actually drowning... Having the water feeling around you and knowing your air is restricted. Dying is not part of the game... That is the hard part with it; though any sort of breath play has its risks... I'm sure the new medic PA girl could easily tell you that much as she'd be the one who would respond if I was dumb enough to off myself in water... No dice though... I'd haunt you if you killed me..." She joked. She then thought about films. "Something superhero stuff... cause you know this universe is full of them... even us with gems in our giant robot... as lame as we think we look everyone else looks at us and goes "They are awesome; they just saved our town... three cheers for the giant robot shooting lightning at the attackers... YAYAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"" She replied overly damatically.

"Oh i don't doubt it for a moment." Hikaru said with a chuckle snuggling his sister. and pulling up a movie from the archives. something with heroes started playing but in truth his eyes were being more drawn to his sister as he laid down, and he moved to kiss her again. a little more sensual this time testing if she would be willing to shift her mood, but if she didn't reciprocate he would just go about watching the movie. "I know I tend to watch the more nerdy stuff, but it's kinda nice to know that you actually keep up with me. I thought it was just me holding the comic collection."


"Oh come on; like half this crew is nerds they are all just closet... they are hiding... just like you know all of them would like to fuck the shit out of thier brother or sister but they are too shy for it..." She teased as he spoke and tried to get her in the mood. She just laughs and then shrugs. "I think; just a nice night laying together... we can have sex any time; but when was the last time we just spent time together that wasn't in that death drop, arguing, trying to figure shit out or having sex... We never just do this you know..." She tilted her head and kissed him deeply yet playfully. "Though... if you just want to have sex... I guess... I just wanted to spend time together right now though..."


"Nah, I think your right." Hikaru said softly his arms now around Kiyoko as he turned so he could lay on his back letting his sister wrest her head on his chest as he turned to watch the movie, he kissed her head. The thought of sex passing from his mind, they could do that later or tomorrow. For now he was enjoying a movie with his sister. "It's been a long time since we took a moment to just breath, plus I don't think i'd last long, i'm used to being a corpcicle having actual body heat... kinda sucks. Sure the blood is flowing, but I think i'd just get hot and gross. I'm gonna talk to the doc about a safer way to turn these things on and off tomorrow."

Or maybe just invest in the training needed to make it so that he wasn't a constant air conditioner.


Kiyo watched with him and just rested her head against him letting him talk and just enjoying being like this with him. It had been a long time since they just showed love for each other and were just brother and sister; usually they were a fighting couple or having sex. This was actually kind of nice; no pressure... Just them; talking. She nodded. "Well I mean you did just start doing that like two days ago; it takes time to adjust to new medical stuff... You'll manage... the doctors will work it out... Just have to have faith... All good things come to those who wait I think I might actually go talk to Ari later too; you know if she's going to be around more it would be good if I got to know her better." Kiyo replied.


"don't take this the wrong way, but i'd actually like to be there for that." Hikaru let out a small yawn. "You should change into pajama's or something i don't think we are getting out of this bed... ever."

"And as for you and Ari, it would actually mean a lot to me to see you too get along. I'd really like to see you two become friends. You do know what a friend is right Kiyo? it's when you don't threaten to stab someone because they are your commanding officer." Hikaru teased.(edited)


"Um... Okay... I would have liked to talk to her on my own but if you want that... sure... and... okay..." Kiyo gets up and changes into a nightshirt; it was really just a t-shirt that was way too big for her. When he continued to speak as she changed she then teased him back. "And I'm you sister; You've head of what a sister is right; a female sibling whom you don't fuck and turn into your waifu..." When she returned she was just in the shirt and her panties; it was so long though that it was almost like a dress. She then sat on him and poked him then started to continue to play with him; not in a sexual manner or anything but just playing.


"Well when your sister is best girl, what choice do you have?" He let out a grunt as she sat on him. "Oh gods, your but is pure bone." He faked as if she was killing him, but he was actually chuckling. It had been a long time since the two of them had been regular siblings. He picked up a pillow and hucked it at his sister. "Your too skinny, you need to put some meat on. Otherwise your just gonna stab me with your knify bones."


“ oh I need to put more meat on my bones do I... i’ll be sure to pass the message onto that girlfriend of yours that you only like big girls I’m pretty sure that’ll go over well with her...” she teased. She caught the pillow and threw it at his face like a boomerang. “ and your cutsy talk isn’t going to get you out of this one...” she smirked then prodded his nude belly.


"She's super light and small, your actual human size." Hikaru said pouting but chuckling and knowing full well that his comment would not have gone over well with Ari, a girl who could at the end of the day kick both their asses. "Do you actually want this to be a wrestling match madam, cause I can and will throw you off this bed." To prove his point he reached up and grabbed Kiyo pulling her down onto the bed. "Lets not forget i know your weaknesses." He started to tickle her.


“ yeah it’s pretty bad when a 100 pound bag of dog food can beat both our asses... though I mean it’s not like she was raised in a military family like ours… She kind of had to fight her way through everything so of course she can fight her way through a paper bag... especially with how barbaric her time was you pretty much had to be able to fight otherwise you had a wall built around you and anyone who tried to get near you always put In a detention facility. Plus their politics was pretty shitty and like women were still expected to do housework... I probably couldn’t clean a dish to save my life.. but then again I am a better pilot than you are so you get to be my bitch-manslave.” She teased that was until he started tickling her then she tried to escape.


"I try really hard not to think about the whole time travel thing. I mean we don't fully understand how that works and Ari is japanese, she could be our great, great, great, great, great infinitely more great grand mother and we would have almost no way of tracking it. Also I still expect you to do house work, you said you would do the laundry like four days ago, i do almost everything else."



“ she’s actually Korean... well Korean American... mothers us born; fathers Korean... but considering how close the countries are you never know... however she never had kids so like if she were like a grandmother whatever then you know it pretty much would be impossible for us to exist because she ended up here...” she turns around and licks her brother. “ and the replicator can do the laundry for us... better yet the AI should make herself useful and do it... i’m the princess remember...” she sticks out her tongue and her brother smirking widely at him.


"I'm sorry your knight is in another castle." Hikaru said rolling his eyes as he  wiped his chin from the lick they were acting like kids, and it was cute. Still he tackled his sister for a moment trying to pin her down. "that's only one theory of time time travel, the many worlds theory would mean that the original timeline the one in which she didn't come to the future would be the one that created us since she's the one from the loop."

"then again think about this stuff too much and you go cross eyed."



“ you see in high school if you remember right I Failed quantum mechanics... Time travel is confusing and retarded... Plus who the hell needs to know that math in every day life like that’s about as useful as having a class on like using a saw mill… Who uses a sawmill anymore anyway I mean that’s like so 2000 years ago that’s like trying to compare a computer to the aqueducts...” she laughed In spite of being pinned.
“ The only thing I remember is all that shit is one giant ass paradox...”

As the two finish their conversation about time travel they both fall asleep to the movie in the background and pass out in each other's arms.
