"Shhhhh~" he replied. "If you talk about it, they'll know about your naked." Whatever sense he was trying to make, obviously wasn't being made at all. This could easily be attributed to his state of half-sleep, which was seemingly devolving into actual sleep as time passed. He was making every effort to wake himself up properly, but it wasn't working in any reasonable amount of time. "Half past deez nutz... ain't early..."
"Know... about..." she was pulling herself together if only to deal with the stupidity that was Shoichi's speech. "My naked." she said. This was the strangest conversation she'd had, but she wasn't quite enough herself to point out the fallacy of this, instead she allowed her eyes to close once more and settled in a bit further. "Fuck this, there aren't enough smokes in the world." she said sleepily as she tried rubbing her eyes but failed because she didn't really want to keep them open. Beyond this the boy seemed to be referencing even more nonsensical things which made the young woman's eyes roll behind semi-closed lids. "Shhh~ Starboy, give it a minute. You're still not making sense, and it's not helping me wake up." she mumbled as she quieted a bit and pressed herself further into Shoichi seeming to settle down. The young Storm Queen apparently had no problem going back to sleep, or at the very least waiting for the grogginess of her waking to wear off before she tried moving.
"Ya' gotta wake up... so I can put dat ass to sleep... with nakey smokin' dick." This was somehow Shoichi's response to, quite literally, everything Chiyo had said at once. It was also the last thing he actually said, as immediately afterwards, he drifted off into a deep sleep once more. It wasn't often that the Sky King slept through breakfast time, but this seemed to be one such moment that he would not wake until the afternoon, if then.
After Shoichi spoke again a small giggle escaped the Storm Queen. Only he would think such a statement was okay, and for some reason she didn't doubt that he meant the words he'd so recently spoken. Even so, about 15 minutes after she'd woken, up Chiyo opened her eyes and revealed her normal slit pupils. She knew Shoichi had gone back to sleep and rolled over to have a look at him. Thinking that he looked rather peaceful, she didn't bother trying to wake him again, and instead slipped out of bed and sneaked soundlessly from the room.
She'd soon enough make her way back to her own room and then across the hall to the bathroom for a wake up shower to get her into the right mood for a day of doing things. As she enjoyed the hot water she felt all the stings of her previous day, including a slight burning to the palms of her hands, her shoulders, and chest given she'd spent a chunk of the previous night upside-down walking on her hands. Even so, she moved right along and soon had herself dressed in some baggy cargo shorts and a small t-shirt while she stood in the mirror of her room trying to fix her hair. After her pigtails were in the right place though she remembered her earlier thought that she needed her bangs cut though she pushed that to the side in favor of perhaps a different activity. 'I should just text the Twins and see if they want to go shopping later. I'll let them pick something good that makes it so I don't have to be naked every time I activate my regalia.' she thought as she sent a text message which would relate to that. Meanwhile, she'd need to find a way to spend the time in between... 'I wonder if he's busy.' She thought as she began putting on her ATs. Before she did this though, she sent out a text message. "Hey are you busy, I have a favor to ask?" and this message was sent to the cellular device of the first generation's Flame King, known colloquially as Kurama.
Within a matter of moments, Chiyo's cellular device would receive a return message from the phone of the Flame King. It read: "Not really. Back to work, but bored half to death with no clients today. If you're looking for any sort of treatment, feel free to stop by. I could use the busy work."
Chiyo had finished putting on her ATs when she received a return message from the Flame King. Upon reading it a wide grin spread across her face as she began rolling around her room to pick up things to add to her rather small pockets but not before she sent a return message. "Well, when you say it like that... it sounds like I'm doing you a favor instead. Be there in 5~" she mentioned. This wait time of five minutes was mostly because she wanted to have a look and see if her crystal snow man had started to melt. And with that sent she packed up her necessities and headed for the landing pad on the second floor. Once she reached the outside she'd jump into the air, her destination: The Gleaming Crest.
Later that same day, Shoichi returned home via the same balcony entrance he had been using, leading directly into the second floor. He arrived ahead of the Storm Queen, and went about darting downstairs to raid the kitchen for food items that would then be brought to the mini-fridge in his own bedroom. As he looked into the refrigerator, it seemed as if Roze had known exactly what needed to be done upon placing groceries in the house. Everything inside, bar a few items, were various desserts and fixings, and Shoichi took basically a bit of everything with him upstairs.
Chiyo, surprisingly enough came home through the front door this time. She'd already cleared her schedule so there wasn't anything she needed to do. She figured since this idea was Shoichi's he'd take care of most if not all of the logistics and she'd instead go to her own room to plug up her phone and the like. As she did she seemed to wander up the halls with the biggest grin on her face.
Shoichi trecked his way back to the room, carrying two bags in his teeth, and various bottles and packages in his arms. When he entered the room, he dumped all necessary items in the mini-fridge, and discarded his ATs after returning them to the Regalia's inactive state. Then came the wait. During this time, Shoichi thought to have a bit of fun. He chose to do this by waiting for the moment Chiyo entered the room, holding a bottle of chocolate syrup in his left hand, and a bottle of strawberry syrup in his right. The next time the door opened, he would give both bottles a mighty squeeze to spray the Storm Queen all over.
Upon finally making it to her bedroom the girl ditched both her cellphone and her regalia, choosing to plug up the former while setting the latter by her bedroom door per her usual need to have them on before she left the room. This of course left the small girl in nothing but her clothes and at at her normal height as she proceeded to wander from her own room towards the Sky King's assuming he'd be there since this was the place he'd chosen to come, and based on their earlier bet. Once she got to the room door however, she opened it, only to immediately find herself being accosted by the stickiness that was strawberry and chocolate syrup. The stunned look on the small girl's face was wide eyed and she opened her mouth and closed it several times before she was able to properly say anything. "Fuck! Really?!" she said though something about this was oddly familiar to the small girl, like it had happened before.
