Author's Notes - Thanks again for the reviews! As always, I appreciate the feedback! As a little side-note, I have no idea if a tagline like the one Seto sees really appears on the Sister Princess box.
Seto was seated at the computer in his home office when he heard Mokuba call "I'm home" from somewhere far beyond the door. He looked up in time to see Mokuba and Roland burst through the door, then nodded and returned to his work. Both Mokuba and Roland were out of breath, but Mokuba charged his brother's desk and slammed down a pile of small, colorful boxes, most with the words "Not for Minors Under 18" printed on the covers.
"How was school?" Seto asked nonchalantly, his eyes not leaving the computer screen.
"Who could go to school when we have all this research to do if we're gonna keep up with the competition?" Mokuba shoved a few boxes across the desk at his brother.
"You need to go to school – you don't have many absences left, you know." Seto ignored his brother's last outburst.
"You're not listening! Forget about all that! We've gotta start studying up so we can make our debut before Pegasus does!"
Seto looked up at Roland, who immediately looked away. "I pay you more than enough to make sure he makes it the twenty miles to school and back safely."
"Y-yes sir…"
"SETO!" Mokuba growled as he tore around the desk and tackled his brother in his chair, grabbing his brother's arms excitedly as he spoke. "STOP IGNORING ME!"
"I'm not ignoring you. I heard you announce your truancy loud and clear. As your guardian and CEO of KaibaCorp, I'll have you know-"
"You aren't listening! We've got the card games market in the palm of our hands-"
"-that if you don't complete your schooling-"
"-we need to branch out and try new things! I'm Vice President-"
"-you will not be able to continue your position in this company-"
"-just because I'm younger doesn't mean I don't know what's good for our company-"
"-and you will be put up for adoption."
Mokuba stopped and looked up at his brother, who merely said, "So can I talk now without all of this dating sim foolishness, Mokuba?"
"That wasn't funny!" Mokuba yelled and ran off, scooping up his games and snatching the bags Roland was holding as he went along. One toppled out of his hands, but he didn't stop to pick it up.
"Mokuba! You know I didn't mean it! I just want you to shut up about this dating sim malarkey!" Seto called after him, then reclined in his chair, rubbing his head.
Roland slowly started lowering to pick up the dropped game, but Seto spotted him out of the corner of his eye.
"Let me see that damned thing."
"Oh – uh, it's just…"
"I said, let me see it."
"Y-yes sir." Roland slowly stood up and approached Seto's desk. Seto snatched the game from Roland's hand and began reading the cover allowed.
"'12 girls, some cute, some naughty, all wanting your attention, big brother!' What a bunch of-"
He stopped as his eyes drifted past the girls, past the title Sister Princess, down to a block of text towards the bottom, in bold, large print.
"This game may be fun, but is not intended for big brothers under 18!'" Seto took a breath after reading that last part and his eyes slowly drifted up to Roland, who had been edging slowly towards the door.
"Roland."
"Y-yes, sir?"
"Wonder what store clerk would be dense enough to mistake Mokuba for a 'big brother over 18'?"
"I-I wonder that as well, sir."
"Roland, are you familiar with the Help Wanted section of the newspaper?"
Roland gulped.
