Mariyam sat by their bed observing their room. The looked at the clock, then the plants, then the window, then at the empty bed. All they could focus on was the quiet which was suddenly interrupted by their siblings voice

"Wanna go to the Aquarium?"

Mariyam looked up in shock as the empty bed all the sudden had their sibling, Tamari sitting on it, however there was a sudden warmth in the room, but no physical temperature change.

"Aquarium?" Mariyam looked up to their sibling, confused on what that even was.
"Look it up on Google," Tamari sighed "Plus it will get you away from this gloomy place."

"You want to take me to a chamber full of aquatic life?" Mariyam dulled expression quickly lightened, and even if it was a little, Tamari could tell.

"Yeah, plus the one near by has tons of turtles~" He waved a flyer for the aquarium featuring all of the attractions perks and tricks galore right in front of Mariyam side to side in a quick manner before Mariyam snatched it.

Mariyam read aloud, "Turtles, Orcas, Dolphins, And half naked humans drowning for peoples entertainment." There was a silence before Tamari croaked "Those are Mermaids... Thats a Kids Attraction-"
"Even worse" Mariyam declared shutting the pamphlet.

"But we don't have to go there specifically! There's many attractions we could go that are just in the building! And the best of it is that it's near a Movie Theatre AND a Cosplay Con! There's also restaurants, a gaming store, and oddly a weed shop... did I mention a cosplay con?" Tamari finalized with a question. "Yes, you did Tamari." Mariyam corrected them "Great" Tamari made awkward finger gun poses while Mariyam didn't flinch.

"There is one problem, however." Tamari prompted. "How are we going to talk Fayrouz into this- I mean she isn't coming with us but how do we get you to leave..."

"I could ask." Mariyam suggested with a slight hope Fayrouz would be lenient. "I will ask and ask until I go. That's that." No matter what, Mariyam will get to see live turtles. If it's the last thing she does.

"Ok- welp! I'll be outside, the monochromatic of this place is sickening." The moment Mariyam blinks her brother is gone from the bed without even a trace they were there. Mariyam simply got up and left to Fayrouz's lab.
