Tsukino Usagi was stalking someone. That someone being her brother.
Why would someone as innocent and pure like Usagi do this? That was kind of the question Luna poised to her despite the cat sitting on her shoulder and nudging her to investigate more what had driven them away from their path back home.
She had finished a lengthy session for homework with Ami, the bluette feeling in the mood to truly wreck the brain of the poor girl, when the blonde had stumbled on the sight of her brother and... a woman. An unfamiliar woman.
A woman that was forcing him to hold her hand while walking by the sidewalk. She looked quite flirtatious, very depraved, and particularly touchy-feely.
Not only that but her brother hardly looked pleased- he was just a boy, after all, it felt weird to think him willing to partake with what felt like one of those 'hookers' or... worse. Way worse.
Yet... something didn't feel as straightforward.
Was she or not one of those 'folks' she heard about?
Usagi couldn't rationally say for sure, but her big sister's sense was saying 'hell yeah'! as she stalked the steps behind these two.
For a time or two, she thought her and Luna had been spotted, but it turns out that it w asn't the case.
Then more worries came as she saw the duo stop to speak with guys. The woman was ecstatic, Shingo looked miserable, and the man patted Shingo's head a few times.
Usagi felt her nerves tickled in a rather unfunny way, but she held her trembling hand just now. This entire mess lasted about a hour or so more, and then the woman left with a strange blush on her face, then suddenly hugged her little brother and bolted away.
Shingo grumbled something that the blonde couldn't hear from the distance, but she was soon marching to her little brother. Shingo noticed her, but it was too late for him to run as the two finally got to him.
"Otouto~,who was that?" Usagi asked in the sweetest sisterly tone she could muster in that mountain of rage she was buried in, her brother's wide eyes and nervous grin confirmed she had stressed the concern and very annoyance coursing through her veins.
"The daughter of a lady that coaches me at the gym."
"That's..." Usagi was briefly surprised by the absurd excuse, but the cat sitting on her shoulder seemed to be more agreeing to this response.
"He doesn't seem to be lying."
Luna's vouching was unexpected but-
"But how come she smells weird?"
Shingo huffed and rolled his eyes. "She is a bit of a loser."
...
Usagi didn't speak, but her eyes stressed for more info.
"Look, all I can say is that she helped me with important stuff at the gym and she called in a favor. And that favor was for me to play her 'nephew' to try and hook her up with guys looking for 'mature wise ladies'."
Usagi opened her mouth, then closed it, then frowned.
"How does that even work?"
It was Luna that answered her, much to their surprises.
"Same as women looking more favorably at men with children. They are mature, responsible, and kind of a shoe in being a family person."
Luna then looked away in embarrassment at being eyed by the two siblings for a while.
"W-What now? Is it wrong to be aware of social cues?"
"For a cat? Kinda,"
Usagi nodded and... then paused. Paused a while now.
"Wait, you know that Luna talks?"
This in turn had a most strange reaction from them both. It was as if-
"How long did you two knew that? Also, how much do you know?!"
Shingo... sighed. "Enough to know that you have been doing a fine job as a heroine, sis."
Usagi leaned back, pride swelling behind her chest at being praised so suddenly but-
"Still- how long?"
"About when you started," Luna admitted, looking ashamed. "The reason we didn't mention this is because you were quite focused, and-"
"I think you would have felt embarrassed to know I was aware you go around kicking baddies' asses."
That statement made Usagi grin a little more and- she could also see their reasoning. She had been such a panicking klutz when she started, and now she was... well, she was resting a bit after kicking a bad sun's butt.
That being said, she couldn't just ignore the fact that she had 'covered' for Luna's cattiness for a while now, and this meant that her efforts to 'keep Shingo from learning the truth' had all been for naught.
Hell, she had to be extra wary now as things were going to be more complicated since... If Shingo knows she is Sailor Moon, then he also knew that the others were the scouts. And this was... bad. Because Ami was going to now use this chance to further her 'goals of seducing her little bro into corruption'.
While she wished to share him with her friends as a lovable brother, that didn't mean Usagi wanted to treat him like that (yet).
"Still, you both lied to me. You could have told me now or earlier so... you are getting punished!" Usagi exclaimed, finger aimed at her brother.
"What? Why just me?"
"Luna is a cat, silly. How should I punish her?"
That being said, Usagi really needed to find a way to punish Luna. The smug grin on her feline face didn't help this decision.
"Ugh, what punishment-"
"You shall sleep in bed with me from now on until you are 15!"
...
"Usagi-nee-"
"Nope, no buts! Big sis shall not check to keep you away from bad ladies' grasps."
Shingo groaned and Usagi smiled in victory. It wasn't the finest victory, she could work on her social dominance, but it was a first step in the right direction.
That being said, there was one thing that Usagi may have forgotten to mention to her little brother.
Such as the fact that she tended to sleep in her underwear due to the hot nights as of late. But that was, as far as she was concerned, Future-Shingo's troubles and not hers~.

I have heard all the nay-sayers from FFN and QQ saying that I am 'diverging' from SM Plot because 'I like Taimanin more'. And I have an answer to that: I already made a warning about giving space to the Taimanin plot since it will be relevant in the long-run. I had said it around Chapter 20 (if not before) and I will reaffirm it now - it will be important. That's why I have to expand on it eventually rather than stick to just SM when there is a canonical 'break' between S1 and S2.
So yes, you are all silly bishes. Deal with it or I am having Usagi crash the Moon on your asses!
