Opening the front door you were greeted with the villains standing before you, some greeted you while some questioned the state of your suit as you brushed off their concerns "How have y'all been since I was gone?" You questioned as you looked at the group of villains, curiosity plastered onto your face as you suddenly saw a box appear before you.

Looking past the beautifully decorated box you saw familiar curly-head villains "What's the occasion?" you teased as you took the small box from Tooru as his eyes flickered away from you before focusing somewhere else "Nothing, just wanted to give you something is all.." he heard your snicker before seeing from the corner of his eye you opening the box.

He watched as your eyes sparkled, while others gathered around you to take a glance at what the rock-human had got you. Sitting plush in a small cushion sat a small teddy bear charm, it resembled much like the one on Tooru's shoulder "Aw Tooru you didn't have to get me this" you said with a smile, while he shrugged his shoulders before ignoring your attempts of thanking him.

What you didn't realize was that the other villain's faces darkened at your small interaction with the curly-head villain, though it did not last long since two blondes nearly tackled you to gain your attention. Earning your stand removing them from your body as you leaned onto the wall "You guys got to stop doing that, one day I'll end up breaking a bone" you scold the two.

"Since when do you hug someone for a gift?" Diego snared at you, seeing as you raised an eyebrow at him "Since forever, you should know that Diego since that's what I did when you got me Ankly." You said, your arms now crossed as you looked at the bashful blonde "Why does he only get a hug? Why not us all?" Dio asked, obviously wanting to stir the pot further.

"Fight for my love then" you sarcastically snickered as you took off your shoes before removing your burnt jacket, not seeing the gears inside most of the villains turn at your playful declaration. Kars head turned towards his fellow villains and began flexing to them "It seems I must do as she said, after all it is only right"

You nearly dodged the fist that was thrown by Valentine as he missed the Pillar man completely "Hey no fighting inside! I redecorated here!" Your words went unheard as the villains continued to fight one another "I really have to just keep my mouth shut.." You muttered to yourself.

Though your train of thought was cut off by a series of knocks, turning back to the door you opened it to reveal your dear friend "Oh hey Jess, Wanna come in?" you asked as your stand suddenly appeared behind her before moving her to the right as Diavolo was thrown out of the house "Sure! I brought some food too!"

"How much are you willing to bet?"

"How about two hundred on Kars"

"Deal."

Diavolo and Doppio began setting up the betting table as the others gathered around and began placing their bets. Kars and Dio stood off to the side waiting for the others to finish their gambles, though the silence was filled by your cheers "OHH DON'T HURT EM NOW KARS" you yelled as you poked your head out of the window, Jess was heard laughing as she stood behind you.

Watching as you cheered on the villains who were now out in the moonlight, getting ready to box one another "What is she going on about?" Dio asked as he stood next to the purple-haired vampire "I'm not sure" Kira said as he prepared Kars for the fight, boxing gloves concealed the pillar man's hands.
