Tubbo's pov

"Twitch chat, stop asking where Ranboo is! I've already said, he's just over there in bed. He's sleeping cause he's tired. He's still adjusting to British time zones" I explain and everyone just spams awe.

How is him sleeping cute? They can't even see him.

"Chat, can you help! Please I don't know what to do!" I complain and they soon try to give me advice in chat.

I go on with the stream, occasionally hearing movement or soft snores from Ranboo as I play the game. He also mumbles in his sleep every now and then but I don't think the mic picked any of it up.

"Chat.. this is why I don't watch Rick and Morty.. it's to scientifically accurate!" I complain before there's a soft thud and I lift my vr headset, looking over to Ranboo where he's fallen out of bed.

I burst in to laughter, falling to the ground in a sitting position and chat fills with curiousity.

"Ow.." Ranboo complains, the fall having woken him up.

"I-I'm sorry.. that's hilarious!" I exclaim, struggling to breathe through my laughter.

"Awe.. that's gonna bruise.." Ranboo complains as he pulls himself back in to bed and sits with a huff, rubbing his eyes.

Eventually I go back to playing the game, still laughing a little as I replay the incident in my head.

I guess Ranboo fell asleep again cause he stopped talking to me. By the time I finally figure out how to move forward in the game, my controller dies. I begin to end stream, deciding to check on Ranboo.

"Oi, mister!" I exclaim. "Ranboo, you awake?" I ask but get no reply. "Yeah, he's gone back to sleep" I say softly, turning back to stream.

I end stream before quietly going off to get dinner. I don't know if Ranboo will actually want to eat anything.

"Thanks mum" I say softly as I grab my plate.

"Don't forget to take Ranboo's in too" she says and I smile.

"Actually, Ranboo is sleeping right now.. could you either put it back in the oven so it stays warm or put it in the fridge?" I ask and she nods.

"Sure, tell him to come get it once he's woken up" my mum says and I nod before grabbing cutlery and going back off to edit a video for a later date.

About an hour in to my editing I hear Ranboo groan, shuffling in bed and sitting up.

"Morning sleepy head" I say softly, not even needing to look over.

"Mm.. mornin'.." Ranboo slurs out tiredly and I smile.

"I'll give you some time to wake up a bit but dinner is in the kitchen for you" I say softly and he roughly hums.

"M'kay.. thanks.." he mumbles, rubbing his eyes and stretching out.

He sits for a good ten minutes before getting up slowly and finishing his stretching out. He goes off and returns a few minutes later, saying a polite thank you to my parents as he enter with food and a drink.

"Did you sleep well?" I ask softly and Ranboo quietly nods as he sits besides me at his desk and picks at the food.

I frown at the sight and sigh softly. He hasn't eaten a huge amount since he got here really. Just sleeps lots, streams and edits occasionally.

"Not hungry?" I ask and he shrugs.

"Just tired.." he mumbles solemnly and I look at him with a worried expression for a few seconds.

"Are you feeling okay? You haven't eaten much these past days?" I ask softly and he nods.

"I'm just.. adjusting to all this.. and not being at home with my parents and being in a room that's not my home.. it's loads to adjust to.. I miss my parents a lot.." Ranboo says softly, pushing his fork around the plate of food.

"That's understandable.. do you wanna call them at some point.. it has been a while since you spoke to them. It's quite normal to miss your family when staying away from them" I say softly and he nods, looking at the meal.

"Thanks Tubbo.. for letting me just talk.. it helps" he says softly before shooting me a soft smile and digging in to his food slowly.

He drinks loads of this lucozade drink. He really likes the lucozade sports drinks a lot. We always have to buy the big packs. He's had the original orange, raspberry, guava, fruit punch and Carribbean blast and cherry.

"You really like those drinks?" I ask with a soft laugh and Ranboo hums.

"They taste good" he says with a dorky smile and I laugh.

"Yeah, I know" I say softly and he smiles happily.

I go back to my editing as Ranboo sits back with a content expression and a belly full of food and energy drink. And he wonders why his sleep schedule is so fucked up.

"Well.. now I can stream later cause I'm energised!" Ranboo exclaims and I laugh softly.

"Yeah until you have a sugar and caffeine crash!" I exclaim. Those drinks are high in both of those things and he drinks about three a day. Call it an obsession or what.

"I don't even want to think about it.. best start being productive, shouldn't I?" Ranboo says with a soft smile and I hum.

"I'm gonna finish editing, just let me know before you start streaming and if you'll use face cam" I say as I turn back to my editing and Ranboo hums, turning his pc on.

Silence fills the room until Ranboo starts to play music, tapping along to it before it develops in to humming. When he starts singing.. I give in and join him cause there's no point in getting pissed off when I could be having fun.

Eventually we stop and Ranboo sighs, setting his stream up and telling me he's gonna use face cam so I rush to change out of my pajamas for his stream.

It'll be embarrassing otherwise. I am also in dire need of a shower but I can do that first thing in the morning. It's one of the best ways to wake up, step straight in to a cold shower and you're instantly awake.

I begin to take on my online persona of being annoying towards Ranboo in his streams until all my energy is drained and I curl up in my chair with my beanless bean bag draped around my shoulders as if it were a blanket.

It didn't take long for me to fall asleep in the chair, super uncomfortable in the clothing and position but I woke up in my bed in the morning.

Either Ranboo put me there, my parents moved me or I moved myself. I tend to wake up for a short minute or two in the night, only be half awake at the time so what ever I do, I have zero memory of.

"Hey.. Ranboo.. did you move me or something last night?" I ask as softly as I can with a morning voice.

"No.. forty something minutes after you fell asleep, I thought you woke up cause you whined and moved to your bed but I dunno.. you might have been asleep still" he says softly and I nod against the pillow.

"Welp.. time to shower I guess.." I mumble, forcing myself up.
