[Y/n] strolled into the base, a devilish grin plastered on her face. The large tank she carried, along with the bag of supplies, immediately drew the attention of Ran, Rindou, and Sanzu, who were still lounging in the common area.

Ran squinted at her from across the room, pointing at the tank. "What the fuck is that?"

Before [y/n] could respond, Sanzu peeked over from the kitchen. "Yeah, what the hell did you buy? Is that thing alive?"

[Y/n]'s grin widened as she set the snake's tank on the table. "Oh, she's alive, alright." She opened the tank and gently lifted her out, letting the python wrap loosely around her arm

"What the actual-" Ran's sentence was cut off by his own scream as the snake lifted her head and flicked her tongue in his direction. "IS THAT A FUCKING SNAKE?!"

Ran scrambled onto the couch with a loud thud, his legs failing to coordinate as he clung to the armrest. His face was pale and his eyes widen.

Rindou stifled a laugh, crossing his arms as he watched his older brother with thinly veiled amusement. "Ran, are you screaming like a little girl over a ball python?"

Sanzu's reaction wasn't much better. He scrambled onto the kitchen counter "[Y/N], WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU? WHY IS THERE A FUCKING SNAKE IN HERE?!"

[Y/n] threw her head back, laughing . "Oh, come on! She's harmless! Come hold her!", she said as she walked towards them.

Harmless my ass!" Ran yelled, still clutching the couch arm like his life depended on it. "That thing eats people, [n/n]!" "AND GET THAT THING AWAY FROM ME", Ran shrieked as [y/n] walked closer to him.

"You guys are such a babies," [y/n] teased, laughing as she let the snake slither around her wrist.

Sanzu glared at her, pointing an accusing finger. "You can call me whatever you want, but if that thing comes near me, I'm getting the fucking flamethrower"

Before [y/n] could retort, the sound of hurried footsteps filled the room.

Mikey, Kokonoi, and Kakucho appeared from a side hallway, their expressions alert. Guns in hand, they scanned the room for signs of danger.

What's going on?" Mikey asked, his voice calm but laced with alert

Kokonoi was the first to lower his gun as he spotted the snake. He pinched the bridge of his nose with a groan. "Are you serious? We came out here for a snake?"

Ran pointed wildly at [y/n] and the snake. "That's not just a snake! That's a demon!"

Sanzu, still perched on the counter, pointed dramatically at the snake. "She brought a fucking creature into the house!"

It's a ball python," [y/n]corrected, stroking the snake's head affect . "She's part of the family now."

Mikey tilted his head, his eyes narrowing slightly as he approached [y/n] . He crouched down to get a closer look at the snake, his expression neutral but curious. "Huh. She's kinda cute," he said finally.

[Y/n] smiled softly "Want to hold her?"

Ran let out another squawk of protest. "Mikey, don't do it! She'll eat you alive!"

[Y/n] rolled her eyes before turning her attention back to Mikey. "Lift your arm Mikey," she said.

Mikey did as instructed as [y/n] carefully guided the snake from her arm to Mikey's, the snake slithering gently onto his forearm. The room fell quiet as everyone watched, waiting to see how Mikey would react.
