Waking up, Alias blinked, turning himself onto his back, staring at the ceiling. Sighing he got up, looking around before picking up his phone, checking the time it was 6:34am. He had spent the whole night just researching the several myths associated with Seldon and 'The Smiling Man' which was frustrating due to the fact there's a similarly named figure 'The Smiling One' which may have speculated if they are the same person or just similar in looks. It was getting on Alias's nerves all night.
There are so many myths to look through and it's been eating at Alias all night. Now that he was invested in that damn shrine there was no way he was passing up going there, even if it was for a job interview.
He went to the bathroom, doing his usual routine when he noticed a strange scar on his neck, he looked at it closely. It seemed like it was old and fully healed, though he had no memory of having a scar there. He'd have to go look through some old photos to make sure he wasn't just going crazy. Sighing as he went back to his bedroom, looking at the laundry he had to do.
Groaning, he went to the pile of clothes he needed to wash, picking it up and logging it all the way to the laundry room. Shoving it haphazardly in the washing machine, throwing it in with a tide pod, closing the door. He turned on the machine with a yawn, pressing the start button as he walked out of the laundry room. Glancing over at the living room, smiling softly as he saw Deo sleeping on the couch with Imu on it's lap.
Walking to the kitchen, he saw Mai teaching Nai how to cook, though Nai seemed to be struggling with cooking eggs, looking intensely focused as they tried their best to not burn it. Alias chuckled, going over to the living room he grinned at the scene admiring the cuteness of Imu and Deo before taking a picture of the two.
Ruffling their hair gently before moving back to the kitchen, watching Nai giggle happily as they finally succeeded in cooking eggs. Looking over at Alias with a giddy excitement '' I did it! '' Nai bounced in place doing a small happy dance as they cheered '' I did it~ I-I did it~!'' they cheered happily. Alias clapped and smiled.
''Good job! You did amazing! '' He gave Nai a pat on the head, looking to the cooked eggs, humming, ''Shall we set up breakfast? '' He looked over to Nai and Mai. Mai gave a small smile as they took the plates, Nai ran over to the couch. Imu yawned softly, using their small hands to rub their wary eyes, looking up at Nai with their wide eyes.
Nai picked up Imu, holding them like a baby, ''Awwhhh Sleepy little guy? You need more nap time? '' Nai cooed at Imu, bopping the shorter one's nose gently. Imu only gave a small smile and a tired pip in response.
Deo yawned loudly, looking around as they opened their eyes, smelling the breakfast, they tiredly got out the tables. Alias and Mai came over setting the plates of eggs and toast onto the foldable tables, Alias looked over to Nai and Imu, '' Is Imu hungry? '' just then, Imu's stomach growled. Nai giggled and set Imu down on the couch, excitedly sitting next to them. Deo sat back down in their usual spot, yawning once more, which cause Mai to yawn as well. Alias sat down at the end and Mai sat between Alias and Deo.
