Paint a Live (Date a Live x Male reader x Danganronpa V3)

Chapter 17: No, We're Not Dating Kotori

(Your POV)
"So you're a spirit?"

"Yes."

"And you didn't feel like telling us this, why?"

"Because I'm still not sure if you guys hiding anything."

"Most of us died and we all have fake memories plus real memories, what else is there to hide?!"

All of us were in the living room of the Spirit Mansion, interrogating Kotori because none of us knew she was a spirit before her little display of power back at the school. Moriko and Mana only had minor injuries, so we let them rest in the spare rooms. Moriko is now awake and sitting with Gonta, while I sit between Korekiyo and Ryoma. Kurumi was also asleep due to the massive shift in power, from basically being a god to being a regular person.

"So...does this mean (Y/N) has to date his sister?" Ryoma asked and I prayed that it wouldn't come to that. "That'd be pretty weird for a bunch of reasons."

"Love is love!" Korekiyo never even flinched at the mention of incest, but then again he's definitely the kinkiest guy in the room so we're just gonna move on.

"I was talking about the age gap, they're step siblings, so it's not as bad." Ryoma corrected Korekiyo, who huffed in an annoyed tone. "Besides, incest ain't wincest."

"Tell that to the Habsburgs." Korekiyo crossed his arms like a child, but he did have a point in some ways.

"Either way, can't (Y/N) just seal Kotori's powers right now and get it over with?" Shuichi suggested, which I was on board with.

"Yeah, but this series is called 'Date a Live' for a reason, so someone needs to date someone." Miu broke the fourth wall in an annoyed voice. "So our readers are expecting someone to date someone."

"Besides, I'm sure (Y/N) is tired after sealing all my power into his body." Kurumi, who is now wearing casual clothes, sat next to Himiko, earning a glare from Tenko. "I was quite the powerful spirit afterall."

"I'm not tired from that, it's just that we had to pull uno reverse card after reverse card." I sighed as I rubbed the back of my neck. "By the way, Moriko, I'm amazed that you're not attacking Kotori on the spot."

"Well I guess she's my cousin's step sister, so she's like family to me too." Moriko seemed alright with the spirit situation, but I noticed her sneaking glances at Gonta.

"Are you sure it's not just because you're in love with Gonta?" Kiibo was blunt about this, causing Moriko to turn bright well, while Gonta had a pink tint to his face. "Wait, was I not supposed to say that?"

"Not now Anyways." I sighed before pulling a card out of my pocket. "I have to work at an Amusement Park, so I'd like to leave so I can get to work, you guys are free to come with me. All entrances are free so long as they're with me and while I'm working there."

"When did you accept this job?" Kotori asked whilst she handed her palm to me, revealing kanji for 'seal', but it was fading away, when did I seal her powers?

"Yesterday, after I sealed away Kurumi's power into my body." I answered as I began writing in kanji on Kotori's hand over the faded symbol. "By the way, did I seal your powers before?"

"Yeah, I assume it's not that surprising you don't remember, but you sealed my powers when they went berserk when we were younger." Kotori explained, but that doesn't explain why my memory of our younger years together is so blurry. "The flames spread across the neighborhood, and you barely sealed my powers before passing out from the heat."

"That does sound like me." I sweat dropped, since now everyone knows why I hate summers so much, along with the heat. "Okay, you're good to go, anyone want to come with me to the amusement park?"
