I am late posting as usual (I only look at the bonus points longingly and from a distance, knowing that I'll never be on time enough to get them) but it took me a while to to my act together. This was an excellent challenge, however. Good job!
“Gay!”
“-Yuuri, stop struggling!”
“Godsdammit, he said ‘gay’ again, Wolfram!”
“Yuuri-“
“I. Am. Not. Gay!”
“Yes, well, whatever, Yuuri, just bend over-“
“H-how dare Shori-neesan even say that?! That meanie!”
“Yuuri! Please!”
“Jeez, cut me a break here, Big Brother-mmph!”
“Yuuri, Yuuri, come on-“
“Haaa!…Wolf….fram…”
“Good boy, Yuuri. Like that. Just don’t close your mouth yet-“
“Gah! Phooey! Sheesh, stop it, Wolf-chan! I’m trying to vent here! You could at least listen!”
“Yuuuu-riiii…”
“Wolf-chan! Don’t touch that!”
…
“Woolllfff-chhaannn!”
“….They can hear us, you know? Shhh!”
“Gods! I don’t care if they can hear us! Ahhh!”
“…”
“Ohhhh, please, Wolf….don’t-stop!”
…
“Yuuri?”
“Mnn…nnn, Wolf-baby-“
“Yuuri, I don’t care what you call it. ‘Gay’, ‘homo’, whatever; it doesn’t matter. So just shut up already, ‘cause we’re busy here!”
“Oh!”
“Um!”
“Yuuri? You alright? It’s not too tight, is it? Should I slow down?”
“Oh, Wolf-chan! Harder!”
“Yuuri!”
“-love you-“
“Hah! Yuuri!”
“Please! Harder!”
“Unngh! Yuuri!”
“Oh, yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!”
“…!....”
“Like that!….hah!....Oh gods, just like that!”
…
“Mmmm, Yuuri….”
“Wolf-chan.”
“….Now, what were you saying, Yuuri?”
“Huh? Oh…yeah. My stupid brother.”
“What about Shori-sama? Did he impugn our relationship again?”
“No! Calm down, Wolf ram, okay? Jeez, every little thing--”
“Yuuri!...”
“Now, Wolf-chan-“
“That interfering, overprotective, way-too-nosy Earth Maou brother of yours! He pokes his nose where it doesn’t belong, Yuuri, every single time - you know he does - and I don’t care if he loves you, he should leave it alone! What does it matter if we’re getting married?! Why does he have to get so involved in our business!? Does he think I’m not good enough? Is that what it is?! Oh, it makes me soo angry-!”
“Wolf.”
“Oh, alright, fine. If you insist.”
“I do, Wolf-cub. He is my big brother, even if he is an asshole. But no, it’s not a big deal - it was just that he used that word again. I hate it when he does that.”
“What word?”
“’Gay’. I know he doesn’t mean anything by it, but it sounds so dirty-My friends--”
“Yuuri.”
“And I don’t want him to think of this whole thing like that, ‘cause you’re my fiancé even if you’re a guy and you’re really important to me and-“
“Yuuri.”
“And we’re going to get married-I mean, Greta-our families--“
“Yuuri. Yuuri. It doesn’t matter, you know? Where we live, we don’t even have that word. You’re never going to have to hear it back home, so what’s the big deal?...Even if he does mean to be insulting--”
“-what--?”
“Pfft! Think about it, wimp. Shin Makoku doesn’t use Earth terms like ‘gay’ or ‘homo’... they have no translation in our language - you do remember what Gunter said about that, right? We simply don’t discriminate between what kind of lover or marriage partner someone has - haven’t I been telling you this all along? Only between Mazoku and human does it make a difference and even then, not as much as it used to now that you’re the Maou.”
“Well…yeah. I guess. Which is pretty good, heh? ‘Yay’ for me. But, Wolf, here-“
“We don’t live here, Yuuri. That’s what I keep saying, stupid. It doesn’t matter because we don’t live here.”
“Hmm…okay, yeah, you’re right, I guess. Sorry, Wolf-chan, I know I probably shouldn’t get upset about stuff like this-“
“As long as you don’t get ‘upset ‘ by what we do when we’re together, I don’t care what you call it, wimp.”
“…Really? I thought you were all hot-to-trot about making sure everybody knew what you are to me? You must’ve told Mama flat-out that you were my fiancé like fifteen times and that was just over dinner. And what about that whole discussion with Dad about the size of your estate and your years of military service? What was that all about?”
“Stuupid! Of course I did! I’m trying to reassure them, Yuuri! It’s not like they know of me or anything like that - we’ve just been introduced and gods know what you’ve said about me beforehand-“
“Wolf!”
“So of course I’m going to want them to know I love you and that I’ll take care of you-“
“…Um--? Wolf?”
“I’m a good catch, wimp, at least in Shin Makoku and probably here, too. I could easily provide for you, even without you being the Maou, and I can defend you and support you no matter what happens. They just need to accept that I’ll always be with you and we’ll all be family-already are, really--“
“Wolf-chan!”
“And even your honored older brother is going to comprehend something this simple eventually, you know. Just give him a little more time.”
“Wolfram.”
“..What?”
“You know what?”
“Mmm?”
“For you - and only for you - I think I….”
“Yes? What, Yuuri?!”
“I think I could be-“
“Yuuri!”
“Gay.”
