It's been a slow week, especially for SMG3, his business wasn't doing too hot, which made it a lot harder for him to keep up with maintenance, and his essentials, and needs to take care of Eggdog as well, he usually tags along with SMG4 to save up what he had, mostly eating from the castle and such, but right now...that was not his concern..
SMG3 closed his cafe for the past week, hence why it's been slow, but lately he couldn't find any energy to get to work, he's been sitting in his room the whole time, feeling little to no energy at all, everytime he got out of bed he felt like he could collapse, he couldn't go to the bathroom, which is literally 5 steps away, without stumbling like an injured dog. Almost constantly, he felt so weak and tired. He tried to keep a good schedule, so he wasn't overtired...
So, to keep it up.. he's just been sitting at his computer watching random crap on the internet to keep himself awake, which was hard since he kept nodding off only to jolt awake again, he felt worse than SMG4 at this point, constantly watching brain-rotting videos and clicking on random stuff and never sleeping, he didn't even know what he was clicking on, anything to keep his mind occupied, until he finally just clicked auto-play to play any video available without him having to do so..
With a heavy sigh and laid his head into his arms, forcing his eyes on the screen, they were so heavy, a shiver runs down the meme guardian's spine as pain wracked every one of his bones, especially in his chest, he tried to heave in a huge breath but in doing so, a cough forces its way out of SMG3's throat, stinging his throat as tears well up in his eyes from the pressure as he grabs a bit of water and downed it to ease the sudden pain lingering, he hurriedly stifled the next.
He's...not getting sick. That is the one thing that ISN'T happening... Being sick makes him weak, and he will not be seen as weak. Ever. A bit of a cold isn't gonna kill me, it's fine... he's fine...
SMG3 rubs his eyes but then he jolts a bit hearing the elevator ring, and the doors open, he clears his throat and straightens his back, great, some idiot made it here, and he knew it was SMG4 or the others... he quickly hid the stack of water bottles and switched the app on his computer to Twitch.. the whole time he was streaming... That's what they're gonna think when they get in here... no question about it.
The doors slid open as SMG4 and Mario walked into the room, "SMG3!! WE'RE HAVING A SLEEPOVER!!!" Mario announced with a big smile on his face as SMG4 smiled and walked in as well, "Yeah, it's just us, Tari and Meggy tonight, the others are busy, and looks like you're closed, so you're free tonight right?" SMG4 explained as he leaned on Three's desk.
"Oh... yeah...I'm not working or anything, but uh...I'm not FREE... tonight.." he lies. He doesn't wanna deal with their crap tonight, but he has literally no excuse to get out of this. He should have had something prepared! UGH..
"Oh? What're you doing? Are you sure?" SMG4 asked, tilting his head in curiosity, SMG3 winces, gazing around the room to find some kind of excuse good enough to get these idiots out of here, but his mind went immediately to Eggdog who was asleep in his bed, and he turned back to the confused pair.
"UHH...Eggdog needs a bath and stuff! He's dirty!" SMG3 piped up, forcing a smile, hoping they were dumb enough to buy it. However, Mario peered at him with suspicion and moved over to Eggdog and inspected for himself...
"...Eggdog looks pretty clean to Mario..." Mario says, slowly turning his gaze to SMG3, "Even Clean enough to eat!" Mario says casually, SMG3 however hastily snaps back at him, "DON'T YOU DARE!!! AND--" He barked, but then paused for a moment to think before continuing, "You wear the same clothes every day for like...20 years or more! You don't know what clean looks like!" SMG3 defends with a hiss, SMG4 crosses his arms, "Bro, come on, you've been down here for like.. the whole week, take a break, eh?" SMG4 smiles patiently, SMG3 rolled his eyes, "I said. I'm busy, idiot!" he hissed as SMG4 rolled his eyes in a more playful manner and grabbed his wrist, and pulled him up,
