Humbert wakes up the next day, stomach gurgling as his phone rings his alarm. He stretches as he yawns before scratching his head as he walks to the kitchen for breakfast to eat.
He usually wakes up later than Alex who has to go to school early since he has an hour of the trip. Kian is still asleep as she played late till morning so she will have breakfast when it's dinner time... And just as usual, there is a breakfast prepared by Alex. He devours his part and the one that was supposed to be for Kian.
Normally he would have waited for 10 o'clock to get ready to work, aka being a critique when Raymond invoked him in his office. He grimaced. He was hoping to get out of the loop since Thorne was with him. But well... He did break into his office and open his treasure drawer...

He gives him a list of people for him to eat. It's usually other demons or humans dealing with demons. Humbert gets a total of 14 targets to get rid of before the end of the week. Not that it will be a problem for his stomach though. But the time is... He sighs before he gets out of the house, leaving a note for Thorne that he will be out most of the time.

After reading Humbert's note the next day she frowned. So, she wouldn't be seeing him very much. She wasn't sure why that made her sad, but she pushed the thought aside as she took the note back into her home so the others wouldn't find it.
While he was gone she decided to get some work of her own done. She put the plastic chest of Tatiana's drawings somewhere she wouldn't have to always look at it. They weren't hers and she doubted the other borrower would ever come back for them, but she still didn't want to have to pass by it every day.
She also returned the journals to the bookshelf. They also weren't hers, and she'd read them all anyway. In fact, they gave her an idea to write her own journals. After gathering the supplies to make them in the first place, she decided to take some time out to write about everything that happened to her up to now. She glossed over her past and mostly focused on the last few days.

She takes notes of the schedule of the residents during the next view day...

6 am: Alex wakes up and prepares the breakfast along with his stuff for school and a lunch box.

7.15 am: Alex leaves for school.

9 am: Humbert wakes and looks for something to devour and takes 30 minutes to eat.

10 am: Humbert gets ready to work as a critic and leaves the house.

12.30: Kian wakes up and curses Humbert for eating her part once again before eating some cereals, taking a bath before starting to stream video games. 1

5.30: Kian comes back to the kitchen looking for dinner, usually a ramen cup, and eats it in the living room then keeps streaming.

18.00: Alex comes back, full of groceries, and starts to cook supper. Kian and Raymond join him when it is ready. Kian took a 2 hours break, watching some TV with Raymond and Alex, from the internet before going back in.

20.00: Alex goes to his room and does his homework while speaking to "himself".

21.30: Alex goes to bed.

22.30: Humbert comes back and eats the rest of the meal before going to bed.

2 am: Kian goes to bed.

She still has to write down during the weekend.

And Raymond doesn't seem to sleep since he is in his office most of the time. Or leave the house for a short period of time...

Thorne pinned the schedule to the wall to help her remember.

Most of the time when she was out, it was either when everyone was asleep or Humbert was there. He and Raymond were the only two who knew about her, but she felt more comfortable around Humbert. The others she avoided the best she could.
