Warning: Cursing, Violence, mentions of suicide
These light-feathered birds are actually ravens with a rare pigment condition called leucism, which gives them their fair feathers and, oftentimes, blue eyes.
[Can you tell I wrote this shit as I was still waking up, which is why it's shit? I'll end up fixing it later]
"Cai."
Grumbling and shifting in xier bed, the corvid's sleep riddled brain just barely registered the voice, or the poke in her side.
"Cai."
Grabbing a nearby pillow, the now unhappy raven chucked it at the source of the noise, cracking a satisfied smile when she heard a yelp, assuring him, that he hit his target, hoping that'd be enough to let them go back to sleep.
"Caaaiiiiii."
Unfortunately not, it appears, as the--now registered as MK--voice, started to shake the volcanic eruption that is an exhausted artist, "MK..."
"Oh! You're awake!~"
"You have five seconds, to give me a good reason why you're waking me not only before the sun has risen, but also before my alarm has gone off," Shooting him the deadliest glare they could muster, the teen gulped nervously, and laughed in worry at the imminent threat before him. "Well?"
"It's really important, I promise! Just come up to the roof, okay?" With that, the youth left and the sound of his footsteps going upstairs was heard, followed by a door slamming.
Heaving a sigh, Cai slowly--and very reluctantly--got out of bed, picking up her pair of equally tired monkey twins, wings dragging behind them as they trudged up the stairs, slamming the door open with xier food, and walking onto the roof.
The others glanced at the newcomer, also having been dragged into being awake at fuck-o'clock, with Mei giggling at the sight of the bird's shirt, showing a tired looking cartoon crow, holding a cup of coffee in it's claws, surrounded by paperwork, the words on the bottom of the shirt reading 'Adulting Survivor.' Additionally, the adorable cartoon crow pajama pants that pooled at the bottom of xier feet didn't help--nobody mentioned the nest-like bed head, as Sandy was nice enough hand over a cup of coffee to the poor artist, a monkey hanging off either shoulder, wings still on a pile on the ground.
"Alright kid, you've got all of us up here at three in the morning, mind explaining why?" Pigsy grumbled out, evidently the coffee he was drinking hadn't kicked in yet. "What's so important that this couldn't wait until morning?"
"I am so glad you asked Dadsy, because I, have unlocked my newest mystic, monkey, power!~" The teen announced, with Cai being seen having fallen back asleep whilst standing, Sandy gently shaking them awake so they wouldn't miss the teen's new power.
"Oooo! What is it, what is it, what is it?!~" The dragon girl squealed in excitement, baffling the third floor tennant on how she could be so energized, so early in the morning.
Tang joined in with equal fervor, "Teleportation, Cloud Walking, gasp is it flying?!~"
"No! It's better than any of those!"
"Tell us already! So I can go back to sleep!" The raven grumbled, praying this three-ringed circus act would end soon, so he could go back to bed.
"I have begun to learn, Monkey King's 72 Transformations!~"
Rumble and Savage both jumped awake in fright, scrambling to hide behind their companion, at the sound of the echoing screech of excitement that left Tang, "The ancient art that has eluded even the wisest masters for centuries?! The ability to transform into nearly anything?! Like an eagle, a tiger, a gorilla?! The power of a god is in your grasp! Show me this power!!"
