After that school 'incident', Randal wasted no time to invite me to a pumpkin carving thing with his family. Of course I accepted, I was gonna live there anyways—I already moved my stuff in, so yeah.
I also met all of the members of his family. So uhh...I remember meeting his older brother, Luther, he was very nice but he gave off an odd aura.
Then we have one of Luther's catmen, Nyen, he was really rude to me at first but he kept his composure—barely—when he found out about my rank.
Luther's second catman, Nyon, who was more tolerant than Nyen, but he doesn't talk much. Nonetheless, he was a really good listener.
Last but not least, Sebastian. He's the human pet of Randal, I honestly feel bad for him because he had to suffer all the weird shit that happens here. Nonetheless, I never met him personally (only physically because he doesn't talk) yet but I'm willing to get to know him since he's interesting.
Now back on track, Randal and I were inside our room—we decided to share his room because I knew him better than the rest of his family— he was laying on the floor imitating a dead corpse and Sebastian was suffering due to his games, as always.
Luther then came in, telling us to carve our pumpkins, so we went down and came to the kitchen. I ignored the other members as Luther announced that we were going to go up against each other to see who carves the cutest pumpkin.
I started carving my pumpkin in the basic and traditional way, and I was really focused until Randal interrupted me. "(name)! Look at my skills, I'm so good at this aren't I!? And her name is Gretchen!" He flashed a wide grin. I stared at his pumpkin in slight amusement, "Yeah, you really did a great job!" I complimented, giving him a faint smile.
He turned to his pumpkin in happy expression with a red face.
"Hmm...now she just needs a body." He removed his glasses and placed them on his pumpkin then started walking around with it in front of his face. I sagged at his stupidity. Luther scolded him for walking around like he's playing duck-duck-goose, to which I sagged harder at.
While talking back to Luther, he tripped and destroyed his pumpkin. I rushed to him as he was patting the floor to find his glasses. I picked them up and pushed it in-front of his eyes. And when I did, he looked at me in a weird way while his face was red once again. I gave him a blank stare in return, his face was radiating warmth after.
Then Randal got up to Luther and used his head as a pumpkin, claiming he was the cutest one. To which Luther disagreed and also used his head. I was honestly used to this kind of thing, since I knew Randal ever since I first saw him.
By the end of the challenge, Luther won.
The event ended there, I guess I had fun in participating. Well, I never had an actual family because I was technically born from nothing.
I took Randal's head and placed it on top of his neck and led him back to our room and laid him down inside his coffin. When I was satisfied, I went back to the kitchen to look for Sebastian.
I finally found him trying to escape and called to him. "Yo Sebastian!" He yelped and looked at me with wide eyes, "O-oh! Uhhh—please don't punish me!" He looked like as if he was about to cry. "Chill dude, I may be the same species as Randal and Luther but it doesn't mean I act like them..." I assure him.
"Wait so we're cool?" "Yeah we're cool."
"So you're actually his pet huh..." I say out of the blue. "Pretty much yeah." He says, refusing to admit his plans on escaping—in fear I would snitch on him.
"I feel sorry because I can't help you, but I can give you advice..." "Sure...it's not like I actually like anything here anyways." "Okay so my best advice is to not get on any of the members' bad side, unless you wanna turn into dead meat." Then I continue, "So you should just give up escaping and try to enjoy your life the best as you can here because you know what they can do, right? But it's all right, you can still make attempts to escape. I would too if I was in your shoes." He nods.
"Thanks (name), you're the first one who's actually been logical to me ever since I came here, I appreciate it—I swear." He looks away, looking at his lap instead. "Well, your welcome! Were misfits in different situations so yeah..." I gave him a genuine smile in understanding his situation.
Maybe being here isn't so bad?
Y'all I know it isn't autumn no more but its just for the story—
