     Regardless, he didn’t know what the rest of his... creations would think of someone other than Lord All for One showing up that was under his so-called protection.

       “Oh~?”

      Zach hummed, continuing to shuffle the deck in his hands before beginning to deal, pausing and leaning over to properly look at the executive- surely he loved a gamble, but Zachariah was more intrigued by what he meant by his little statement.

         “Because I don’t see that.”

      Zach lounged across him like a cat, letting his hand go up to play with his hair, “But everyone has opinions of one another- and ourselves, if we need a change of scene or another’s outlook...” He hummed and continued to play with his hair, sitting up a little with a smile.

      He didn’t look up from his work, removing the needle from his arm and examining it in the light, setting it aside after a moment to finally address her. He’d get back to this in a moment.

       “I couldn’t sleep!”

     Yumeno scurried up to join him after placing their doll beside the older, pulling themselves up onto the couch to get comfy with Junji once they took their doll back into their arms, they hummed in contentment. And sleep sounded boring to them so they wanted to stay up with the adults!
