God I looked at the code and it's just as dumb as you'd expect.
Any interaction just adds a random amount of time to the clock (I think it was 0-11 minutes), touching her head adds 10-20, and literally the touching during the H scenes adds random values between -2 to +7 to yours and her meters.
There's no strategy, nothing. And from what I can tell the scene just hard ends when your meter hits full.
I poked through the code and made adjustments so most actions only add 1 minute, and when you touch her, you cannot get negative values. It's much more playable, but the game is still a buggy mess and scenes randomly end when you hit whatever time limits they impose without telling you.
You can get the modded action costs file here (for Sibling Living v0.2):

I might do some more tweaks in the future, but given how buggy this game is it might not even be worth it.
(And apparently if you do an H scene, the next day she gets upset, it's like -20 to her Happiness stat. So if you find she's randomly upset, just skip a day of lewd actions and she seems to shoot back up. Doesn't seem to be a problem when she's reciprocating.)
(Also why the fuck does kissing her in the shower scene reduce the Imo bar? Might poke around further to fix that, but it appears that they're doing some cursed shit like using the name of the audio file to store the value that gets added to the Imo bar, and for whatever reason it's negative)
EDIT:
Also here is the translated H-scene instructions:
- Move with the arrow keys
- Zoom in/out with the mouse wheel
- Left-click to interact
- Right-click and drag to remove clothes
- During intercourse, left-click on the male character to move, right-click to stop
- Double-click on the male character to insert
- While inserted, double-click on the male character for auto mode
- In auto mode, double-click on the male character to go faster
- Click on the male character repeatedly for ejaculation
- Ends when the blue gauge reaches max or when time runs out

- Removing all three items — cardigan, camisole, and shorts — unlocks poses.
- Raising affection and whether the character is awake will also affect things.
I might at some point translate the image itself and patch it in, but I'll wait to see if the game actually gets any updates first.
