3th person P.O.V

A week has passed since it all came back as before, just more awkward and silent between The Devil and King Dice. Valentino didn't visit again.. for now.. and it's all over the news about the death of the poor ol' fella Elder Kettle.

Everybody were worried about the two "heroes" that saved the Inkwell Islands from the Devil, though now he became as strong just as before, but at least they were the only ones to win over him. What happened to them? What are they going to do now? Are they old enough to hold into this responsibility to be alone without their guardian?
Those were just few of the many questions that some people around the islands asked out of concern and curiosity.

But now, we shall see what the Cup and Mug are actually doing in a the Wednesday morning, one week exact after their guardian's death.

Mugman P.O.V

It's early in the morning and outside the dawn has just started as we are ready to give this home a clean-up from all the stuff that Elder Kettle had.

Cuphead is still mourning, I don't blame him at all, after all this is our childhood home and we did everything in here. We can't stay forever like this.
We decided for our best (mental health for the most) that we are going out of this house, and as that i mean move-out entirely. No coming back.

We started from our room. It only had a bunker bed and some chests, we left all of our strange things and treasures taken by our adventures inside of them,  I chuckled at the thought of the good times, we decided to take them along.
We dismantled the beds and threw them away since we don't need them anymore and cleaned everything up.

Then we carefully took care of all the other rooms. The only ones that we left untouched were Elder Kettle's bedroom and the Living room. He said that it was his "spot made by Heaven". His Paradise. So we left it as it was.

I only wish for Cuphead to be okay, and maybe this is a good idea... If we stay here longer maybe it will cause us only problems.... This house is big and we can't keep up with everything. We must live near the 3rd Island. How i hate it. But it's for the best! It's for Cuphead..

7:37 p.m

We still have 2 days till we can finally move out. We have found a little flat that is perfect for the two of us.

I am sure 100% that few people are actually going to give us a job. We are only 17 and 16 and we don't have much to do. Lucky i am going to be 18 in a bit so i can take a job legally ad pay the rent normally. I sigh. Cuphead will need to go around and help me get the groceries and fix the flat. After all we founded the first one that we could. It's not in it's best conditions, but it's perfect!

I am not a fan of this idea "BuT iT's GoiNg to Be AlRiGhT CupHeAd" yeah. Suuuure. That's bull-crap.
If it was really going all good then maybe Elder Kettle would have not died.

I only want to go back home, just like 1 year ago. All games and fun, adventures, great time with Elder Kettle. Happy again. Together.

I miss him so much.

I want my old home.
