#this is when gil Onii-sama became gil Onii-sama

How did you get *HIM* to be your brother?

How Quin and Gilgamesh became basically siblings.

It was a few days after the twins entered the Babylonia singularity. After a lot of whining from a certain caster, Romani went over to Quin.

"Um so... That annoying flower mage has been refusing to help unless we send you in." He said while sighing, not even wanting to be doing this. "I am sorry but... we really do need his help. I can try my best to talk to both King Gilgamesh and Merlin to make sure you aren't anywhere too dangerous but, you saw how they are..."

Quin just smiled up to Romani, hoping to calm his anxieties even just a little "I-its okay. We are all here to help, s-so it's no problem. Thank you for w-worrying about me."

"Really? Are you sure? Quin... you don't even have a servant and it has been a long time since you have had a combat encounter."

" I am sure M-mr. Merlin will just push off his work around Uruk to me." She then holds up one of her arms and flexes it. "If a-anything happens I will be okay, I can take care of myself. So d-don't worry Romani!" Quin's heart often hurts when Roman gets like this. The guilt he feels when sending out the twins and mash is almost palpable, though Quin might be the only one to notice it.

Sighing to himself he just nods "okay. If you say so. Go get ready to rayshift and... just be careful, okay?" Romani gives Quin a pat on her head. The two have always been pretty close, often talking about so many different topics and joking around. When they first met, Romani thought Quin was a cold girl much like other mages but in reality she was full of warmth with a heart full of love to give.

Quin nods back "I will try ny best. If I get into trouble it's due to my own faults then. Make sure you and DaVinci get some rest too."

"We will try."

Quin's thinking was right. Merlin did just push off all of his work onto her. Spending days on end healing soldiers and towns people, it was tiring but that was fine. Uruk was hot but it was bright and full of life. When she first came into Uruk she met the aid of King Gilgamesh, Siduri. The woman held herself with confidence and strength in her own way.

Being the way she is, after being done with the healing for the day Quin often wandered into the palace in order to help. Siduri often took Quin under her and they worked together organizing requests.

The first day Quin even saw King Gilgamesh in person was when Siduri got held up by some nobles and the notice she was set to deliver was time sensitive. Making a quick decision, Siduri asked Quin to hand off the tablet stack to the king in his office. Taking the order, Quin rushed off with the tablets towards the King's office.

Entering through the doors, she quickly noticed that she couldn't make too much noise. In front of her, King Gilgamesh sat as his desk with disheveled hair, large bags under his eyes, calloused fingers, and obviously asleep. These are all symptoms Quin knows very well as she has had them all frequently herself.

Stealthily she set down the tablets then hurried back out of the room. She quickly left a small note outside of the doors to warn anybody coming to see the king. In her rushing Quin ran back out to her room and her healing supplies, grabbing some supplies for her personal energy potion. Running off to the palace kitchen, she quick makes the potion into a drink for the king to partake in. After asking the cooks for some snacks for the king, she rushed off with the tray back to the king.

When she entered back into the room, She had found King Gilgamesh awake and Siduri standing in there too. Quin froze just after entering the room.

Glancing over to her Gilgamesh spoke "What is a chaldean doing in here?"

Before Quin could reply Siduri did that for her "She is the assistant for Merlin. After her healing work, she often sees if she can help. In order to not have the same trouble happening as with the other Chaldean, She works as my assistant too."

"And, what is that?" The King's gaze moved towards the tray with a skeptical gaze.

"I-its refreshments for the King!" Quickly thinking of what to say she just blurted out "The p-palace workers wanted to give th-the king something to show their appreciation. Since I-I was here I offered to deliver it, to let them c-contine their work."

Gilgamesh quickly looked at her and the room then smirked "Well, if they want to show their reverence then they should do it themselves. Do not think it is wise to lie to me, chaldean. If Siduri was not fond of your help, Your head would be lying on the floor as we speak."

Quin just blinked towards the king for a few seconds before saying "b-but it is not a lie. All I-I said was true. Th-there was just s-some information left out." Moving towards the desk, Quin set the tray down with a small bow before whispering "I-I am not good at lying your highness. Yet I j-just thought it well to leave out s-some... tricks of th-the eye." She then quickly moved away and looked towards Siduri "Is there a-anything else to help with?"

Before Siduri can respond Gilgamesh turns to her and says "Go get Merlin to do his job." Then turning to Quin "Chaldean, your mornings will be spent doing magecraft as before. After noon, you have work to complete under Siduri. Now leave me."

Nodding fast Quin rushed out of the room. Basically running towards her room in the brewery she only stopped once entering it. Collapsing on her cot in the corner she screamed into a pillow. She remembers reading the epic of Gilgamesh as a child, sneaking into her parent's to do so. The message of the story connected to her personally and now meeting that man... it was so surreal!

Ah it's getting late, so Quin quickly fell asleep getting ready for tomorrow.

~time skip~

It was a late night, the group of 3 were working into for hours on end. Eventually Siduri fell asleep. That just left King Gilgamesh and Quin awake.

Opening the gates of Babylon Gilgamesh pulled out two cups and a cask of beer. Placing one in front of Quin he begins himself. "Drink." The king ordered.

Gilgamesh did not even need to ask, as once the king took a sip Quin basically downed the entire cup. Being almost surprised by her drinking Gilgamesh refilled her cup "...Are you an alcoholic or something?"

Quin only shakes her head before downing the cup again "No, it just takes a lot for me to get drunk. In honestly my king, I could probably even drink you under the table."

"Oh? Shall we test that theory?"

She only chuckles an nods.

Once morning hit Siduri awoke and saw the carnage left over from last night. Casks of beer, bottles of wine, and so many other containers of alcohol littered the ground. In the middle of the room was both Gilgamesh and Quin snuggling together.

She just sighed and places the blanket she had on her over them, letting them both sleep a little longer as she ordered some servants to quietly clean up the room.
