It was early in the morning when Grim woke up, grumbling at the amount of light being poured into the room. "Myahh... Why is it so bright in here?" He mumbled tiredly as he turned his head away from the window, slowly blinking his eyes open. After taking a few moments to fully wake up, he looked around and gave a confused hum as he saw the change in the room. He knew that he and Yuuken had fallen asleep in the lounge waiting for (Y/N), so why were they in bed at the bedroom? Additionally, why did the room look cleaner than before?
Sitting up, he looked around and noticed the difference in the room. There wasn't any dust in the air, the white sheets covering the furniture were gone, and everything was perfectly furnished and decorated. It looked like a different room in total and for a moment, Grim wondered if he was still dreaming. Looking over to his side, he saw that Yuuken was sleeping calmly on his side, looking like he was having a peaceful slumber. The little monster thought for a moment on what to do. One one hand he wanted to go back to sleep, but on the other hand, he wanted to go and check out the rest of the dorm to see if it was just as clean. His train of thought was soon interrupted when his nose caught onto the delicious smell of cooked food coming from outside the room.
"Myah... That smells amazing," Grim said as he got out of bed, stretching his limbs and groaning a bit from his stiff joints. He then made his way out of the room, looking around and noting how the cleanliness extended throughout the entire dorm. The hallways, which were once dusty and gloomy, were now bright and welcoming. The little monster continued to follow the delicious aroma to the kitchen, where Ed, the skinny ghost, was busying himself with making breakfast while Al and Poe were floating at the dining table, helping (Y/N) understand the words in the book they had.
"So, this section explains the various properties of plants in specifics?" (Y/N) asked as they pointed to a page, Poe nodding in confirmation. "Yep, plants have a bunch of different properties that people can use, from medicine to nutrients and some even use them for poisons," Poe explained with a patient smile and Al looked over to the notes that they had written down, examining the strange symbols they had written in their language.
"I'm pretty sure I died from poisoning," Ed commented in a lighthearted tone from his spot in the kitchen. "Then again, I was dumb and thought that it was okay to eat an apple core, haha." The other ghosts laughed with him, not seeming bothered at talking about their deaths.
"I didn't know plants could be that dangerous," Grim said as he looked around, some of his sleepiness still present as he didn't process that he understood what (Y/N) was saying. Everyone looked over to the little monster, noticing his presence and smiled as they greeted him.
"Mornin' pipsqueak," Poe greeted as he waved at the little monster.
"Well, look who's up bright and early," Ed jested as he looked over to Grim before looking back at the paper, focusing back to (Y/N). "Y'know, kid, you should probably also learn how to write in our language. I don't think that the professors would want to spend more time learning how to decipher this everyday."
