Hero comes home from a hard day of work. He's upset and stressed. He meets with Mari in the kitchen. Mari notices he's acting off and asks if he's okay. Hero insists he's fine. But Mari knows he isn't. She then tries to convince him to regress, knowing that it helps calm his nerves and make him feel better. He ends up eventually regressing and being a happy shark pup boi.

Hero sighs as he opens the door and walks inside. He closes the door quietly, and slowly walks through the house. He can hear some clattering in the kitchen. He didn't want to draw any attention to himself. He just wanted to go to his room and sleep.
"Hero! Welcome home, dear!"
Hero freezes, slowly turning around to face his wife. "H-Hey, Mari!" He stutters.
Mari smiles, walking to him and hugging him lovingly. "I didn't hear you come in, is everything okay?"
The brunette nods, "Yeah, everything's fine! Of course I'm fine!"
Mari narrows her eyes at him, "Hero, what's wrong?"
"N-Nothing's wrong, Mari. I'm perfectly fine." Hero insists.
"I know you're lying. Tell me what's wrong."
Hero hesitates. His hands are clasped together in front of his chest, nervously fiddling with his fingers.
"Did you have a bad day at work?"
"N-No. I'm okay."
Mari frowns, "Oh, you did, didn't you?"
"Mari please, I-I'm fine."
"You're not. Do you need to be little?"
"No! I'm perfectly fine!" Hero snaps, suddenly upset.
Mari jolts, startled at his sudden shout. She sighs, "alright. How about we have dinner, hm?" She asks, gently grabbing his hands.
Hero nods slowly, letting her lead him to the living room couch. "Uh, are we not going to eat in the dining room?" He asks slowly.
"We can if you want."
"No." Hero refuses quickly.
Mari chuckles softly, "alright. I'll go make dinner, you be patient and wait here, okay?"
Hero nods, sitting down. He watches as Mari returns to the kitchen and patiently waits for her to return. He looks down at the floor.
…
His clothes were uncomfortable.
He knows Mari said to not move, but he needed to change out of his work clothes.
Hesitantly, he stands up. Should he say something? No, it'll be fine, he'll be quick. Hero quickly walks upstairs to his and Mari's shared room. He looks through his dresser, trying to find something comfy.
He could just wear a t-shirt and sweatpants. It's the easiest option.
Buuuut he could also wear his cute shark pj's.
…No. He can't wear his little clothes in front of Mari. She might think he's weird.
Hero hesitates, struggling to decide between the two.
"Hero!"
Hero jolts and quickly grabs something to change into. Which just so happened to be his shark pj's. But he couldn't care whether Mari thought he was weird or not, he just didn't want to make her upset. He changes into his pj's and rushes back downstairs.
