WHY IS THIS HAPPENING?!!

AN: Bandu and Expunged are in their origin forms since they at home. Home is their place to relax and such so that's why they like that lol

Expunged's eye twitched as he sat at the dining room table. He would sometimes sit there to go into deep thought about anything that troubled him or left him confused. This time, it was an EXTREME amount of confusion...

"What even was he?? HIS FACE LOOKED SO DUMB AND YET-... really cute? ... GAHHH!!" He thought to himself, racking his brain to have some sort of grasp of focus and understanding. But it was still so difficult. The guy with the yellow clothes and sombrero.. the cat-like mouth and nice smile.. with his multi-colored keyboard... In fact, he had the instrument with him, tucked underneath the chair. Why did it all cause him to have a huge fixation on this little creature? It just didn't make any sense...

"HI BROTHERRR~!" Bandu exclaimed, walking over to the table to check on his older brother.

He had just finished recording another playthrough and was heading over to the kitchen part of the house to get a snack. But once he saw his brother back from his daily "walks" (as in going out to cause some chaos), he just couldn't resist greeting him.

"Whatcha doooin'? You seem really frustrated~!" Bandu said, leaning in towards his brother and tilting his head at him.

"None of your business. Hurry up and get what you need." Expunged said bluntly, squinting slightly as if he were disturbed by Bandu's presence. Which he was. He had a hard time being nice to his little brother. There were reasons why but he kept that to himself.

"But I wanna know if you're okayyy!" Bandu then let out a huge gasp once he noticed the keyboard underneath the chair. "IS THIS BENDU'S KEYBOARD?!! OMG HOW DID YOU GET IT?! I DON'T REMEMBER YOU TWO MEETING!!" Bandu snatched the instrument and turned his back to Expunged, wanting to look at it.

Immediately, Expunged shot an angry and alert expression Bandu's way, getting up from his chair and quickly attempting to get it back. His arms reached over behind his younger brother, flailing slightly as he tried to get it back.

"GIVE THAT BACK YOU MORON!! UGH!! I TOLD YOU NOT TO SNATCH THINGS THAT ARE IN MY POSESSION!!" He yelled, scowling a bit as he fought for the keyboard.

"It's not even yours, Expunged! Did you two meet? Did YOU steal it??" Bandu looked back at Expunged, asking his questions with a genuine tone despite Expunged aggressively reaching over his shoulders.

"AGAIN, NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS!! GIVE IT BACK NOW YOU LEPRECHAUN!!" Expunged tried and tried to snatch it back, and he finally did! He held it close to him and suddenly just realized something...

"Hold on... You k n o w him??" Expunged questioned.

"Yeah! :D We met like last week outside of a spanish restaurant! I was thinking about eating spanish food for the first time and I just saw him playing his keyboard right outside! I dunno how he managed to make great music with only 4 keys but it was so cool!! I gave him some money and talked to him for a bit and we just couldn't stop ever since!" Bandu smiled as he recalled the memory out loud.

Expunged was just... baffled. How in the HELL did Bendu even manage to carry out a conversation with Bandu?? Bandu was always insane when it came to having a conversation with new people, especially new people he found very interesting.

"Oh..." All Expunged had to say was that. He was just taking his time to process lol

"We even went inside to eat! He had me try out the best food on the menu and it was scrumdiddlyumtious!! I ended up paying, but I wanted to so it's fiiiiine!" Bandu waved off, smiling like a doofus. It was cute lol

Expunged just stood there, puzzled. A bit of jealousy lit up in him, wishing he was the one who Bendu met first. He hoped to god neither of these two began catching feelings for each other right after they met. Dear god that would just be... w e i r d . Atleast in Expunged's mind that would be weird. He had a vivid image in his mind of Bendu and every detail about his appearance. The god even remembered the way he sounded and the way his face twisted and moved for each word that spilled out of his mouth, and it stuck with him since the day they met. Expunged had been feeling things he didn't even know existed inside him. There was a deep urge to get to know this mortal more, and even keep him for himself forever... But how? He couldn't just steal him away immediately. No no, that'd be too overwhelming. He may have had a few screws loose in his mind but he atleast had enough sanity and rationality to think about how the mortal would feel if he came off too strong. God... the next meet will take so much planning... Then again, when does Expunged ever plan things?

".... Sooooo, if you want, I could bring him over! We were planning for him to come over and cook us some nice Mexican meals!! Omg you two would be such great palssss!!" Bandu exclaimed, having his hands up to his chest and waving them back and forth in an excited manner. Being the much kinder one out of the too, Bandu was happy at the idea that Expunged would gain a new friend, or atleast a new aquaintance.

Expunged's eyes quickly shot back over at Bandu. This was a great opportunity!

"YES-... I mean, sure sure. He can come over. Just don't get ahead of yourself, doofus." Expunged dismissed Bandu, waving a hand off in his direction as if to shoo him away.

Bandu simply smiled and FINALLY went over to the fridge to get a snack. (Incase you were wondering, he got a bag full of apple slices for a snack lol)

Expunged sighed as he began thinking about the day that he'd see Bendu again. Knowing himself and Bandu, he hoped for once that things wouldn't get ugly...
