Zhara fumbles w her keys while holding some groceries for her brother in the other hand, Finally getting the right one and opening the apartment door. She sighs putting down the groceries on the countertop, unaware of the wide eyed occupants on the couch who were just fighting. Until her eyes wander to the area, her brows furrowed.
"Seriously sleepy? You had to bring him, to MK's apartment?" Zhara scoffs unfazed. Sleepy hits the dark haired monkey one more time with a pillow before answering, "I mean, I kinda live here too ya'know. Plus MK isn't here!"
Zhara sighs uncomfortably, taking a quick glance at the unfazed monkey and back to Sleepy. "I guess, But you know could always stop by my place too."
Sleepy hums, "I could.. but mk's place is closer to pigsys so its just, easier."
"Are we gonna watch something or what?" Macaque speaks up, bored. Zharas brow twitches,
"Has MK ever came back before and caught you both hanging out? You know hes just working now that Monkey kings away." Zhara asks ignoring Macaque. Sleepy shrugs, "Nah.." Zhara sighs as she puts away the groceries she got for her brother. Sleepy peers into the bags, noticing his favorite snack. "Don't mind if i do." He smiles to himself, taking the box of goldfish.
Hearing the shaking of a snack, zhara turns.
"Try not to finish that all today, please?"
"Cant promise!" He says as he moves back to the couch. Zhara sighs in frustration, continuing to put away the groceries. As she puts in the last few things away, she overhears some whispering. Extending her wing to hear better, but to her unfortunate nosy self macaque notices.
"If you're so interested why don't you just come over here, with us." He offers. Zhara scoffs,
"No thanks, I haven't forgotten what you've done to MK. Especially at that theater, fucked up."
"Please!" Sleepy begs, "You did kinda hurt me during your littlee thing.." he says smiling. "It'd also be like old times!" He adds on. Zhara glares at sleepy before sighing in defeat, dropping her keys on the counters and dropping onto the couch.
"If MK comes in, I'm putting the blame on you Sleepy." She says while brushing her wing through like it was hair.
"You're still bothered about your wings?" Macaque asks.
"How are you supposed to know that I even am?" Zhara quickly responds. "Just cause I'm brushing my hands through them?"
He tilts his head towards sleepy, "Noo..? You always were bothered by them. Right sleepy?"
Sleepy nods, "You always used to hide them by uhm..." He searches for the word.
"Glamour." Macaque says.
"Yeah that! Thanks Maccy." Sleepy smiles.
"Glamour..?" Zhara says basically asking what it is.
"This you dimwit." As Macaque says that his appearance changes to something more weared out, his famous six ears out while some scarring.
"Thought thats how you were out of basically everyones radars these past few years." He mumbles.
Zhara amazed by this, "Wait, wait how'd you do that. Please teach me both of you!" She pleads.
They both chuckle, "So you were bothered by them?" Macaque asks
She shrugs, "Maybe. Now teach me!"

"Finally, you got it!" Sleepy exclaimed. Zhara rushed to feel her ears, which were now pointy. "It was about time," Macaque added. "The half wing half ear was funny though, looked stupid," Sleepy giggled. "Thanks Sleepy," Zhara said with a smile. "They're pointy just like my dad's."
"Pigsy?" Sleepy asked. Zhara shook her head. "My biological dad," she said solemnly.
"Ooouhh," Sleepy replied.
Zhara chuckled. "Finally, I look at least a bit more normal-looking."
"Wait, you had a dad?" Zhara looked at him weirdly. "Didn't you have parents? How did you think I was made?"
Sleepy shook his head. "I thought you were made from like rock, in a cave or something weird."
"I honestly thought the same too," Macaque admitted.
Zhara sighed. "I'm not even going to question it."
"I think it's reasonable...?" Sleepy pondered.
"No, it isn't!"
"But Gem, it's a rock. It'd only make sense. But yeah, parents work too."
"Do I look parentless?"
"Yeah."
Zhara looked at Sleepy with a deadpan expression before leaning over to flick his forehead, just to be smacked down by a pillow.
"Hey!" Zhara shouts before she could hit back the door handle shaked, the door opening revealing a tired MK. Quickly zhara hops off the couch to go to her brother,
"MK, hey..! You look terrible..?"
"Why didn't you come todayyy... all those deliveries were so... much.." he groans. Zhara looks back at the couch noticing that Sleepy and Macaque have left, probably going to go watch something.
"Took the day off to run some errands, and help you out a little." She says turning back to face her brother.
"Couldve helped me out with DELIVERIES." He shakes her by the shoulders,
"Weell i'll be there tomorrooww..?" She says while still being shaken.
"Hmph, you better!" MK says as he lets go of her. Zhara sighs tiredly, "You mind if i crash here?"
"Not at all, as long as you're coming to work tomorrow." He huffs. She smiles,
"I ammm MK." Zhara replies as she plops on the small couch, "I'm done for this day MK-"
"Did your ears change back?" He askes suddenly,
"You just realized?"
"Im tired okay..! They're back to normal but sharp looking." MK says kind of amazed.
"I'm tired too, we can talk ears tomorrow yeah?"
"You're right.. goodnight zhars!" He yawns.
Zhara hums back, as She quickly drifts off to sleep. L
