He was not in a good mood today.
Well, when was he ever in a good mood? He was normally scowling.
However, today was a shit hole for him. His schedule was so packed lately and he had so many things due that he didn't even have time to age regress. He didn't even want to at this point, he was so caught up with everything he felt that he needed to be big every second of the day. This had a horrible impact on him. To make matters worse or better, this didn't go unnoticed by his girlfriend, Mitsuri.
She is Obanai's caregiver, so ever since he stopped regressing for a while, it worried her quite a bit. Today she was going to confront him about it though.
Mitsuri came back from work to find her beloved sitting on the couch, reading a book. He actually looked calm for once, considering that he hasn't heard her walk through the door, she realised that this would be the time to ask him.
"Obanai.. darling, can we talk?"
"Hm? Oh, yeah, okay. What's up?"
"Well, I'm just a little worried, you haven't been slipping into your little space for a while, are you okay?"
Obanai stiffened a bit. It hadn't occurred to him how concerned he made Mitsuri.
"Uh, yeah, I'm fine. Just... a bit busy is all."
"Not only that. You seemed stressed for a while now." Mitsuri mentioned.
"Ah- well, you know how work is-"
"Have you been suppressing you regression again?"
Obanai froze. He was, but he didn't know how to tell Mitsuri. Worst of all, he started getting choked up and feeling tears in the corner of his eyes. Shit. This wasn't going well.
He hastily dried his eyes and tried swallowing the lump in his throat. "Uh, no. I havewn't- HAVEN'T."
"It's very clear you have been baby, you don't have to lie to me."
Baby. That was enough to send Obanai over the edge. He felt his tears come back, he started shaking a bit. "Sorwy... I no wanna..." He started sobbing.
"Oh darling, you've been extremely stressed lately, haven't you?" Mitsuri took Obanai in her arms, ruffling his hair in an attempt to soothe him. He was clinging on to Mitsuri, sniffling.
"How old are you baby?" She asked Obanai. He thought for a moment before putting up 2 fingers. He stopped crying a bit, but his face was still a bit puffy and red and he still had tears in his eyes. "Wan' paci..." He muttered, still snuggled up against Mitsuri, who picked him up, took him to their shared bedroom and got his paci.
"Baby... you're gonna have to take off your mask if you want your paci. Mitsuri had seen Obanai without his mask countless of times, but she could tell he was a bit reluctant. "Honey, it's okay, nobody will see other than me." Feeling a bit more relieved, Obanai took of his mask and accepted the paci, putting it in his mouth, suckling on it.
"Do you want your plushie?" Mitsuri asked him, to which he nodded. She handed him a black snake plushie, which he gladly accepted. Mitsuri tucked him into bed and kissed his forehead. "Good night baby." She said softly as Obanai drifted off to sleep.
