SNOW GASPED AWAKE AFTER HEARING HIS YOUNGER SISTER'S VOICE, PRESUMABLY CRYING.
This was kind of normal after the villagers left, it was hard being a little kid missing their mom. Both of them were feeling it. They were little kids, just missing their mom and family.
But Snow found it to be his duty to take care of his little sister, who was only 3 years younger than himself. He would cook and take care of their small home to the best of his abilities.
Snow was 14, but for the sake of his sister Y/n, he tried to act like a hero, and way older than he was.
Grogginess present in his voice, Snow yawned, "Y/n, are you crying?"
Y/n stood by the side of his man-made bed, "M-Mhm can we cuddle again tonight?"
She was also trying to be strong, but it was hard.
"Yeah, your big brother is here for you! Johann is also here." He opened his arms for a hug, even though it was dark, the white haired boy had an earnest smile on his face.
Y/n calmed down, only sniffling slightly. She leaped into her older brothers warm embrace and smiled the same smile he owned.
Johann looked at the two sideways, whining.
They both laughed and let him onto the bed, where they can all cuddle and be warm in the cold Tundra.
"You don't have to act tough Y/n, we will all get out of this, see mom and dad again, the villagers too, and maybe manage to try those apples you've been talking about! Just leave this to me, ok?"
Y/n listened and giggled happily, liking the idea of it all. She hasn't seen her people in years, but for her brother, she had to put on a brave face for once.
"You have me too, onii-chan," The white haired girl slurred, half asleep.
Her brother almost laughed before noticing that she was already asleep. The boy just held her protectively with a small smile, happy to have his little sister safe and sound.
He was happy she wasn't crying anymore and that he managed to make her giggle like old times.
"Mom and dad... she misses you a lot... I miss you a lot, please come back home to us."
He soundlessly feel asleep after that, but Johann couldn't fall asleep, Johann or Fushi couldn't help but stare at the two.
'Caring... they 'care' for each other?' Fushi looks at the two white haired siblings with a stoic face. The wolf knows the boy was in pain, but still stayed strong for his little sister. 'But why does he do that, put up a brave front for his 'family'?'
There were a million unanswered questions the wolf had to offer up, but Fushi couldn't help but feel happy while looking at the two somehow. Even if he didn't know that he was happy.
They were so happy living in these circumstances, and this environment. They were happy because they had each tiger. It was meaningful.
─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───
"Look! Look!" Y/n was pointing at her right hand while jumping up and down.
Snow beamed, jumping up and down with her, "Wah! My little sister is so talented!"
She smugly tossed the fish in the basket, as her brother was gleefully clapping with pride. It was overdramatic but the boy was happy for his sister, it was her first catch ever.
Y/n laughed, "See if you can beat that Onii-chan!"
It was a pretty big fish, but Snow had a bigger mass, and could probably beat Y/n when it came to hauling fishies. But today was her day, so he let her get the bigger catches, as he sneakily threw his catches into the water without her noticing.
"Today was definitely a workload!" Y/n sweatdropped, almost collapsing without the help of her brother giving her a piggyback ride.
Fushi trudged beside them, barking a bit.
"Nice save!"
The two laughed all the way home, with their fishes being carried by Fushi, who was holding the basket by the teeth.
