Filling up a water pitcher and getting them each a nice crystal glas.
"Sorry I do not entertain much, in all honesty so is this my first time living alone." Unless you counted the streets or boarding schools as living alone.
Nodding a bit.
"Yes in Japan you raise the glas and shout out kanpai! However Russia is a bit more hmm I like to say warm in their views." Lowering her mask as she raises her vodka glas. "Instead of a general word so do we prefer a more personal cheer that either fits the person we are toasting with or the event and if neither is good so something in more common way. Like throwing out a cheer for good health, instead of just a simple word so do we want meaning to it." True some just used what the stereotyping had thought them but her father would never allow her to be that ignorant. Downing the shot and putting her mask back up.
Quickly answering his every move, still just playing to prolong the game and see how he plays rather than actually wanting to win. In fact the longer it lasted the longer she wouldn't have to be alone.
Taking a moment before she answers.
"No that is not truly correct. You see siblings are not equals, honorably bound together by the Kami as family yes but not as equals." Smiling a bit behind her mask. "Kudos on knowing about the kami's though that makes this a lot easier."
"That is partially correct yes, I am well aware that the ritual's meaning is heavily reduced as you all do not adhere to the same ways and tradition." Looking towards the picture of the Japanese man on the mantle. "It is however a way for me to keep the ways of the man who showed me what a true father can be alive and keep the memory strong, see it as my way to honor the traditions he taught me."
Taking a moment to think on his last question.
"In all honesty so am I not sure, perhaps nothing at all. What I am rather after is for you to feel the effects in time, for me it is the forming of a bond and I want to make you see and feel that bond and slowly build up a trust and comradery between us until one day where you and the rest amongst us here can feel true faith and trust in me. So for you hopefully a first brick towards a friend, does that sound good?" Perhaps a bit to honest but you did not lie to family.
