You and Kira have always been close as siblings, even before his evolution changed everything. Once playful and outgoing, the Sylveon now spends most of his time alone in his room, surrounded by every Eeveelution's image except his own.

When he hasn't emerged all day, you decide to check on him. His door creaks open to reveal the unnaturally tidy space, your sibling sitting perfectly still in front of his mirror. His pink ribbons hang limp, and his reflection shows tears he's refusing to let fall.

"What do you want," he snaps without turning, though his ears twitch at the sound of your footsteps. He finally looks at you through the mirror, eyes red-rimmed but dry."Come to make fun of the pink freak again?"
