Readers POV

It had been a few days since the little office scene which I had found that Splendor had seen. It didn't bother me as much as it did his brothers as he fangirled like a teen over a pop star. I was allowed to leave the mansion and it was a hard thing to decide if I should return to the church I had made home since I had made may trips back to my home and I had enough here to survive. I had a feeling they needed me here and well Offender needed Akuma for who knows what but I am not one to judge her love. More and more of the children here have started calling me mother and it felt to right to even stop them from doing it. Sally and Lazari call Akuma auntie and it didn't seem to bother her.

It was a quiet day in the mansion most of the kids have gone off to kill or even just do normal teenage things. I was surprised to see that they went shopping like normal kids did. It took them a small bit to actually look like normal kids but they never got caught by the police no matter who tried to recognize them. Even the brothers went out to do there things. It did cross my mind every once in a while to how they actually kept this place in a nice condition though there also was the fact that Trender may or may not be a neat freak.

I was sitting in the library, on one of the chairs closest to the lit fire place with a novel in my hand. It was a calm afternoon and I had a cup of tea sitting on the table next to me as I read silently. Like a normal library it was silent, You could heard a pin drop if you dropped one. The large doors opened quietly as Slender had walked into the library with a small pile of books that he set on the table. I just left him be as he started to put them away, not really seeing me there. There was some paper on the table as he sat down to look through the books. Upon looking there was a wide aray of cooking books.

He glanced at them then to the paper. Writing down things he may need for these creations that the book illustrated. I closed my book and the sound must have drawn him from what he was writing. "I did not notice you here. I'm sorry." He said as I stood up placing the book next to the tea I had made.

"It is fine." I said walking over to the table to see what he was doing. "Trying something new for dinner this evening?" He nodded and looked back at the books. I looked at the pictures and at first glance they did seem like wonderful dishes but like those dishes they would not taste like they should being this his fist time making them.

"I may have to go to town to get things for this. But I usually take someone with me to help but everyone it out." He said looking at the list he had made. Somethings were trivial items like eggs and milk but the others were strange like green onions. It did not seem like a huge task and maybe he just wanted the company while he did this chore.

"I am standing here am I not?" I said. His head tilted to the side like he was thinking. "Smiley had said I am good to go and if I wasn't I would not be here in the library. If you need someone to help you run to town I will." I looked on at him while waiting for his response.

"You are willing to come to town? Do you have a form to change into?" He asked. I gave a small giggle and shook my head. It was funny sometimes how he thought. It made me also wonder what his mind wanders to since he did not have a quirk as much as his brothers did. He had a sense of fashion that as simple and formal. He did not have the quirk as far as I've seen of his younger brother in the sexual way and as for a fun happy side he enjoys spending time with his daughters doing what they want unless its painting his nails I have seen.

"To the mortals I would be seen as an albino child with my hair and eyes. I can tint my skin and remove the stitches in my eye temporarily. So I won't need to change much. I can hid my bandages in my clothing and I just need to borrow a hoodie from one of the girls. That's all." His mind was wandering again by the crease in his head.
