Bring The Heat, Soulburner!

Enter, Soulburner

After the defeat of the 'bully', in which they weren't even scared of in any way possible, and them getting to meet an AI that seems to be having free will, they decided to get to know more about Flame tomorrow since it was extremely late, 11 PM and they really didn't want to worry their parents/grandparents, which made Seigen kinda sad to hear about the last part of the sentence.

They all said their goodbyes for today, or that night, well all except for Flame since he was in Theodore's duel disk so he went to the silver-red haired boy and went to their home. They parted their ways for the day.

Theodore opened the door and smelled some dinner that his grandparents made or at least bought when they went out so he could eat when he came home. Flame and Theodore looked at each other before heading to the kitchen.

He placed Flame on his table and opened a bento box that they bought for their grandson which was an ekiben. It had disposable chopsticks, rice, grilled fish, fish cakes, pickles. Theodore picked up some chopsticks and got some. It was placed in his mouth and he chewed it and took it. It was good for him and it really melted in his mouth.

He placed some in chopsticks and gave it to Flame to which the Fire Ignis looked at him like Theodore grew some heads. "Theodore, the only thing I eat is data and I can't eat anything else. I don't think I even have a digestive system."

"Oh." Theodore nodded as he put the food in his mouth. "Sorry."

Flame shook his head, "Don't worry about that Theodore, at least you aren't selfish." said Flame.

After a few more minutes of Theodore eating ekiben, with his grandparents walking in on them talking, which resulted in him trying his best to make it sound like it was a very advanced way of a video chat, which they were surprisingly okay with and went back to sleep.

After he ate the bento boxes, Theodore put them in the drain and then began cleaning them, which he and the Fire Ignis had a small conversation about improving his skills as a duelist, since while it was good, but enough to defeat the leader of the Knights Of Hanoi?

Not really.

They did talk about ideas on how to improve his skills like challenging his friends on a mostly daily basis, which would be interesting since they still dueled like they used to and getting to get used to his newest deck, which he was shocked at hearing that he was basically storing a new deck inside of his duel disk, but he was too tired to not even talk about it.

After the silver-red haired boy was finished with washing the bento boxes, he placed them in the dryer next to the drain, and then went to his room. He placed Flame near the window so he could have a nice view of the sky and then went to his closet, the one holding his clothes, taking out some parts of his clothing.

He then took the clothing and went to his door, "Where are you going, Theodore?" asked Flame, confused where he was going.

Teddy looked at Flame with a weird expression, "Uhm...going to shower?" he said as it was the most obvious thing.

"Why would you do that?" he asked as Theodore looked at him like he asked him a hard math question.

"Wait, so you researched how humans talk and how they can trash talk, even about movies, but never learned basic hygiene?" Teddy asked him as Flame shrugged his shoulders.

"I never thought it would be necessary since no one in the Cyberse ever had the obligation to do any of the basic hygiene that you talk about." said Flame as Theodore looked flabbergasted.

"Looks like me and you have something to learn during our journey." he said as he turned the handle of his room.

"You mean, you and I, right?" Flame asked as Theodore rolled his eyes.
