Cuphead's POV:

As soon as me and Mugs got home, we put the the stuff down while I layed Y/N down on the couch.

"I can't believe that map lead to the home of THE Thomas Tinker!" Mugs said with excitement. I chuckled at him then turned Y/N. I turned him/her to the side, back towards me looking at the keyhole. "whatcha doing Cuphead?" Mugs asked looking over.

"Do you think we should wake them up?" I turned to face him. "He did say to "take care of him/her" so he/she must be alive in some way." I said turning back.

"Well I guess so, it was his last wish." Mugs said putting some of the stuff we found in his room, probably to look at later. The daisy comes over and looks at Y/N curiously. "They're gonna be living with us from now on, if we wake him/her up." I said to him. Mugs came back into the room dusting his hands off. "So are we gonna do it?" I asked holding up the key we got this morning.

"Might as well I'm very interested in what they're like." he said coming over to the couch. I nodded then put the key in and turned clockwise three times, pulled it out then turned him/her onto his/her back. Their eyelids started to flicker as he/she starts to wake up.

Y/N's POV:

It must be time to wake up as I felt being wound up. I slowly opened my to see a place I do not recognize and three strangers staring at me. (A/N: you kinda have a British accent when you speak you can change it if you want)

"Excuse me but, can you tell me where I am and where my father is?" I asked the strangers as I sit up on what I believe to be some sort of big chair.

"Your in our apartment I'm Mugman and this is Cuphead and Daisy." the blue man said jestering to the redman then the flower.

"As for your father.... he told us to take care of you from now on." "Cuphead" said as he looked saddened. I feel as though I must investigate on my own about what happened to father as soon as I know how far away from home I am, but as of now by looking outside through an opening of the house that it is night time so I must stay inside.

"Okay do you have any books I can read? I wish to not bother you while you sleep." I asked wanting to know how the times changed since I was last awake.

"Aw great another bookworm." Cuphead said sounding annoyed while rolling his eyes.

"What is a "bookworm"?" I asked curiously not knowing what the word means. Mugman pulled him to the side then started whispering to him. While i wait for them to finish I looked over at "Daisy" curious about him. I get up and sit on the ground as to not scare him. I notice that a petal that seems to be torn, poor little fella something traumatizing must've happened to him when it was torn. "I am sorry about you petal, I do hope you will tell me what happened when your ready". Daisy seems to perk up to what I have said and slowly nodded. I do hope we get to be good friends.

Mugman's POV: (his conversation with Cuphead)

I pulled Cuphead away from Y/N after she asked what a bookworm was.

" Cuphead, that was really rude. Who knows how long he/she's been winded down for, he/she might be curious about what happened to the world while he/she was in that cave." Cuphead looked shocked then disappointed, probably in himself.

"Didn't even think about that, sorry mugs." said Cuphead. I put a hand on one of Cupheads shoulders.

"I'm not the one you need to apologize to" I said. We both looked over to see Y/N on the ground looking at Daisy. "He/She might need a dictionary too since he/she didn't even know what a bookworm was and a light to read with. I'll go grab them along with a history book while you start up dinner" I said walking to my room to get Y/N the things they need.

Cuphead's POV:

I was about to retort but Mugs went to his room, probably to get some books for Y/N. I sighed and looked over to Y/N seeing  him/her looking at me.

"Do you eat anything?" I asked wondering how much to make for dinner.

"I can but it is not needed for functionality, I would sometimes cook for father when he was working on something." he/she said. Well there's some information Mugs would like.

"Well what was his favorite thing you cooked for him?" I asked hoping they could help me cook.

"Father would always want something either sweet, juicy or both so I would make grilled sea bass with lemon juice and pepper with a side of oranges and coffee to drink, I would also make mashed potatoes and fried skin slices if I could not catch anything." he/she said. They must've barely left that sea cave when she was awake.

"I'm gonna cook some dinner for me and mugs. Would you like to help, you could learn something new." I asked wondering how his/her cooking skills are.

"Yes please, if you do not mind." They said getting up.

"Great follow me to the kitchen and I'll show you where everything is." I said about to walk to the kitchen with Y/N when Mugs came back with a few books and a flashlight.

" Why are you both going to the kitchen?" Mugs said putting the stuff down on the coffee table.

"Y/N said they used to cook for Thomas so I thought maybe they could help me with dinner while I showed them around the kitchen." I said turning towards him.

"Okay I want details later but, you're just going to make them do all of the cooking as soon as you show them where everything is, aren't you?" Mugs said suspiciously.

"Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaat no I was gonna show them new things while I cook ahaha," I said nervously.

"Uhuh then you wouldn't mind Y/N only observing and passing ingredients to you while you cook" Mugs said with a sly smirk. Dammit how did he know. At this point Y/N seemed confused. "Are you okay with that Y/N." He said turning to Y/N with a normal smile.

"If I am still helping in a way I do not mind."  Y/N answered. Aw man I was really hoping to some T.V.

"Great I'll set up the table while you two do that" Mugs said heading into the kitchen ahead of us.

" Oh goodie" I said sarcastically.

(A/N so if anyone who is an artist can come up with a good concept of Thomas Tinker I will tag them in this book tag me on the picture if you do and I'll see you next time)
