OH WHY DO BOTH OF ROLO'S HEARTS KEEP HURTING~~
Hello. I bring some VERY ROMANTIC BEAUTIFUL story from Talkin' Rebellion. Blah blah it's old but I don't think it's being translated before? I mean, besides the summary that koshimizu once shared

I apologize in advance because I'm pretty sure I got a particularly awkward-sounding English for this narration, especially with the verbs and adjectives x.x So yeah, there might be some vocabulary mistakes, but at least I think the meaning of each sentence can be understood ^^; Hopefully?
Enjoy!
「しばらくひとりにしてくれ、ロロ」
“Leave me alone for a while, Rolo”
兄さんはそう言い、ドアは僕の目の前でがちゃんと閉まった。兄さんは今まで見たこともないような固い顔をしていて、部屋のドアはそんな兄さんの表情を写しとったみたいに硬質な表面を僕に向けていた。
Saying that, Niisan closed the door with a slam in front of my eyes. As Niisan showed a rigid face like I had never seen before, the door of his room turned towards me with the same hard surface as if it had copied Niisan’s facial expression. [<-What’s with that silly metaphor? I always knew Rolo was into poetry]
笑いかけてくれない。
He won’t smile at me.
それだけのことで、どうしてこんなに胸が苦しいんだろう。
For something so simple, I wonder why my heart hurts so much.
僕はこんなにも、笑顔を求めていたのか。自分でも、そんなことに、初めて気づいた。僕はつい数日前まで、彼を信じていいのかどうかさえ迷っていたはずなのに。
Did I long for a smile this much? Even I, have only realized such a thing for the first time now. Even though I was in doubt whether to trust him or not until only a few days ago…
いろいろなことを思い出してしまう。そうだ、兄さんは、僕が銃を向けたときにすら、笑顔だったんだ。
It makes me remember various things. That’s right, even when I was pointing a gun to Niisan, he was smiling.
僕の兄さんから、笑顔を奪ったもの。原因は分かっている。
That which stole my Niisan’s smile; I know the cause.
ナナリーだ。
It’s Nunnally.
あの電話のせいだ。ナナリーが生きていて、消息が分かってしまったから。
It’s the fault of that phone call. Because with Nunnally alive, the circumstances ended up being discovered. [<-I don't get this, I must be understanding it wrong ._.'' sorry]
僕がいるのに。
Even though he has me.
僕がそばにいるのに、兄さんは苦しんでいる。
Even though he has me at his side, Niisan is suffering.
ナナリーが戻ってきたら、僕はどうなるんだろう。
If Nunnally came back, what would happen to me?
兄さんには、僕さえいればいいんだ。僕がいるから、ナナリーのことはもういいんだ。
Niisan should have enough with me. Now that he has me, Nunnally is no longer needed.
そう思ってもらいたい。ううん、思ってもらわなきゃ。
I want him to think like that. No, I have to make him think like that.
どうすればいい？
What should I do?
どうしたらいい？
What can I do?

よし、データベースから情報は集めた。リハーサルも完璧だ。これで兄さんは、僕のことだけを考えてくれるはずだ。要は完全に代わりが務まればいいんだ。
Okay, I collected the information from the database. The rehearsal turned out perfectly too. With this, Niisan is bound to think only about me. The point is simply to become a perfect substitute.
僕は兄さんの部屋のドアを叩いた。
I knocked the door to Niisan’s room.
ドアは開いて、兄さんの厳しいままの表情が僕の目に飛び込んできた。
As I opened the door, Niisan’s strict expression flashed into my eyes.
「ロロ、しばらくほっておいてくれと……」
“Rolo, I told you to leave me alone for a whi…..”
僕は、言った。
I said it.
「お兄様っ☆」
“Oniisama☆”
兄さんが絶句している。生徒会データベースのビデオで見た、あの目と足が不自由な少女のイントネーションを完全にコピーして、僕は兄さんに、いやお兄様に呼びかけた。頬に手を当て、首をかしげるのも忘れない。うん、我ながら、絶句するほど完璧だ。
Niisan is at a loss of words. Imitating perfectly the intonation of that girl with the visual and walking impairment that I saw in the videos of the student council database [freakishly long subordinate!!], I called out Niisan, no, Oniisama. I didn’t forget to touch my cheek and incline my head to the side either [<-o_O does Nunnally do this anyway]. Yes, even if I say so myself, it’s flawless to the point of becoming speechless.
「…………」
“…….”
あれ、でも反応がない。
Huh, but there’s no reaction.
「お・に・い・さ・ま？」
“O-ni-i-sa-ma?”
おかしいな、兄さんの表情がますます厳しい。まだナナリー分が足りないのか。
That’s strange, Niisan’s expression is becoming increasingly severe. Is Nunnally’s part still lacking?
僕は、とっておきのセリフを出すことにした。
I let out the line that I had been keeping in reserve.
「えっと………………にゃああぁぁ～～～～っ☆」
“Um……… Nyaaaaaa~~~~☆”
「………………………………」
“……………………”
ああ、兄さんの視線が冷たい。氷点下だ、絶対零度だ。
Ah, Niisan’s glance is cold. Below freezing, absolute zero.
あああ、ゾクゾクする……。
Ahh, I’m shivering…
じゃなくて！え？あれーっ！
I mean! Eh? Whaa-!
YES THIS IS HOW IT ENDS º_º
Also would somebody want me to post some of Rolo's dialogues from the DS game? I posted them on my blog but it's such a ronery blog.
