[ The video cuts on shortly to a young girl with pale hair and red eyes staring down at the device seemingly in her lap, leaning over it partially. After a few seconds void of any expression beyond curiosity, Illya will give a sigh. ]

Kaleido-log Day Two. Er, no, that sounds really stupid. Magi-log? Hero-log? Captain's log?

You're not a captain. [ A rougher voice speaks up in the background. ] Besides, it's recording a message for the entire group to see. It isn't a personal diary.

[ With that, she quickly slams it shut.
A few minutes later, Illya's demeanor has completely shifted into one that's more cheerful! ]

Hey there everyone! My name is Illyasviel von Einzbern and I'm one of the many heroes brought to this world to help defend it! Isn't that great? [ Hee. ] Just in time for my birthday too! Let's try to get everyone together to celebrate it this Wednesday. That's the thirtieth alright? A party is a good way to get to know others and well, I'd love to become friends with everyone here!

[ OH! ]

Also, you should try to bring something to eat. We can't have a party without food! [ And gifts, but she's not going to be selfish enough to say that outright. ] So May thirtieth, we're having a big party um... where is this again? The Grand Library I think? Well, that sounds like a great place to have a loud party! [ Ruining the reputation of the 'quiet district' within the first week... ] Maybe we can use the pool!

[ Honestly she sounds like she's never had a party before, much less host one. With a wink, she'll just wait eagerly for any replies. ]

A while ago...

[ It doesn't sound like she does, but Illya feels bad admitting that right out. So instead she'll just stare at the book in hand as she tries to find a way to word what's on her mind. ]

Well, it's kind of complicated I think.

No, it's pretty simple. You don't know who I am, do you?

[ uh-oh ]

But that doesn't mean we're unable to be friends or anything!

[ Illya keeps running into people who have heard of her, but she's never met them before in her life. It's starting to wear her down to say the least. ]

I don't know who you are. I'm sorry.

I'm-

I'm you, Illya. Or I was, I really have no idea of how to explain it. I was a bunch of sealed memories you had. Do you remember unleashing your power?

...did you say friends?

You're me? But you look so different! [ Well, not too different she thinks as she looks closely at her. ] What sort of memories were these?

Nothing about my big brother, right?

And that's right! Friends.

You...really have no idea, don't you?

Oniichan is all mine. This is my win~

[ Barely audible whispered, by the way. ]

Huh, I guess we could be friends until you remember. My name is Kuro. I'm your older sister, although we are more like twins.
