Kujou Hikaru is woken by the cries of a baby. The baby is not his responsibility. He can hear the sounds of another rising to tend to it, but the damage is done. Now that Hikaru is awake, he is aware that he needs to use the restroom. He won't be able to go back to sleep until he has.

He gets up. The thing that needs to be done doesn't seem urgent, so he follows the sound of movement into the kitchen, where his cousin by marriage is feeding the baby from a bottle.

"Hey, Bro. How is Midori doing?"

"She's fine, just hungry. Sorry about waking you."

"No prob. I can't call myself her cool big brother if I don't let this sort of thing slide."

"You're not her brother, technically. You're second cousins, once removed."

"Details," Hikaru says, waving his hand. "Keeping track of that sort of thing is for nerds."

"Well then, I'll be a nerd. Feel like going back to bed?"

Hikaru yawns, then nods. He goes and does what needs to be done, then returns to bed.
