Miros layed on his sofa looking at the ceiling. It was beggining to darken in the city and alone as he was inside the walls of home he began noticing a few details.

Besides from the stains that he and Tatsumaki had left on the couch and a few places all around, the house seemed just a little dirtier. Not much, but there were changes.

Some crumbs beneath the dinner table were left to be when he usually just cleaned up but something made the S-Class hero stay still, maybe it was the fact she was at his home more often than not but was it? Lack of discipline could lead to dangerous roads, very dangerous roads...

Could she had been the cause of it? Was it that her own prescence was turning his routine against him? He shook off the thought before getting up to tidy the place up, not as toroughly as he usually did...

Miros wondered what could he do for the night, Tatsumaki had been called for a Demon level threat a few cities away so there wasn't any fun for the night.

-"Such a waste of my time, why do we have so many heroes if they always send me anyways?"- She had told him.

-"Maybe they trust you more than you give them credit for.."- He answered in return.

-"Do they really? I think it's just a facade, they want me to believe I am trusted to keep me close and monitored..."

-"That's kinda conspiranoic, ain't it?"- Miros added with a playful tone

-"I don't think I've told you but... I haven't really ever trusted the association..."

Miros recalled this conversation which endured for the brief moments they shared together before her departing that morning...

While finishing the cleanup, he picked up his phone and decided to contact that one guy he always felt like teaming up for a while... It took him a while to find the contact on his phone, finally, he found the next best thing to what his memory had provided Miros with.

"Big metal weirdo."

Yeah that's probably it.

"Sup dude, you're up for a patrol?"

After a few minutes, Genos responded

"You'll have to wait for me, I'm currently training with my Sensei"

"Oh cool, I didn't know Bang had enrolled you into the Dojo"

"He didn't."

"...What? Who's your Sensei, man?"

"I'm being called by him at the moment, I need to leave, I will talk to you once the moment arrives, the night is only being born for now."

Genos was right, the stars weren't even set yet, but Miros was beggining to thirst for a battle.

Eventually, Miros received another text.

"Hey brat, I might take a little longer than expected. The brute I just obliterated supossedly had a couple of pupils around town, thing is, I killed him before he could tell me who or where they are..."

"Ah, the classic shoot first ask questions later method, gotcha"

"Shut up, it's not like I wanna be here, as annoying as it is I might have to stay until tomorrow. Sorry..."

"Don't worry, just try to be more careful next time and we might just be able to fuck sooner."

She left on read for a few moments before responding.
