Shoto sighed, a hand on his forehead as he made his way to Uki's room which was upstairs. He knows for a fact Fulgur slept in for the night in the physic's room.

Uki always had spare clothes if his friend decided to crash in for the night which Shoto didn't mind at all. It's his room, he has every right to do whatever he wanted. As long as it didn't disturb anyone then the slayer couldn't care.

Shoto knocked at the wooden door that had a sign with the boy's name on it to know which is his room. A familiar voice rang as he gave the heads up for Shoto to enter the room.

While entering, he saw Fulgur near the table of his friend who was still passed out asleep on his bed. "Man, I haven't seen Uki sleeping in this late in a while. Is he alright, Fulgur?" The slayer asked half jokingly as he only got a light chuckle from the cyborg.

"Oh you know how it is. Gotta give your wife a rest every once in a while." He joked. Shoto always loved the inside joke of Uki being a malewife and all that jazz. It was accurate and he was the soothing yet sassy mom friend that everyone needed and wanted.

Setting that aside, he finally asked what he's been meaning to request from the gray haired man. "By the way.. Can I borrow some outside clothes?" He asked, a hand over the back of his neck as he gave an awkward smile. Shoto was never a guy to ask for a lot of things so he feels bad whenever his friends go out of their way to help him with things he could do by himself.

Fulgur responded back with a raised brow and a smirk. "Ayo? Why do you  need to borrow my clothes that are much more bigger than your usual size? You wanna make someone jealous or something?" He asked as he was poking fun at the little slayer. If Shoto could throw Fulgur out the window then he would. But Uki would haunt him even in the afterlife and he didn't want that in any alternate universe.

"A friend crashed over and you're about the same size and all." Shoto brushed pass the taunt with a waving hand.

A light bulb almost lit inside of Fulgur's head. "You've been cuddlin' him all day to know his size, Shou?" He snickered. He knew all the ways to tick off a person, doesn't he.

Shoto was about to punch him in a teasing way of course  but he was interrupted by a hand behind his back.

Startled, he flinched back only to be reassured that it was his beloved Uki. Still having messy hair and closed eyes, he spoke in a lower voice than usual. He mumbled. "Mhrm.. Check the lower part of the closet and you'll see decent enough clothes for the outdoors." His voice raspy and tired. Shoto appreciated Uki who was more helpful than the already-awake Fulgur Ovid.

A small thank you is what Shoto gave to Uki before rummaging to the spot the boy instructed the slayer to look in. After a few seconds of digging around, he finally found an outfit that seemed like something Vox would wear or tolerate to wear.

He grunted back as he finally straightened his back from being bent when he was looking around, he greeted a thanks to both Fulgur and Uki while he headed out of the room and went in his own.

"Voooox." He called out, a hand on one of his cheek before he spotted the demon sitting contently on his bed. "Here, take these." He spoke as he handed the folded clothes to his boss. It was wrinkled a bit  but not like he would take the extra mile to flatten it and all.

"My, my. Thank you, Shoto." He gave his thanks before heading to the slayer's bathroom to change since Shoto insisted  Vox to change there.

As the raven haired male left to change, Shoto figured he should also take his time to change while the other was occupied.

He picked out a set of clothes before hurriedly undressing and dressing right back. He prayed Vox wouldn't walk in on him half naked because of how slow he was to get ready. Hair ruffled beyond repair because of how fast he got in his turtleneck and some parts being wrinkled since he didn't smoothen them out yet, he looked like a mess. But it was better than him being all nude infront of his boss.

Finally, Vox was done as the bathroom door creeked and open. The majestic being all fancy and neat while Shoto looked like a rag compared to him.

The demon quickly noticed how the slayer made such an effort to dress up fairly quickly, it was painfully obvious at this point.

He walked closer to the shorter boy, though not that  much shorter. He and Vox were roughly the same height yet he already knew his twitch fans would say otherwise.

The demon ran a hand down the boy's soft silky locks. "You're hair is all ruffled up, my boy." He spoke, a small smirk perking up on his face.

"Nothing, I was just  about to fix it." He barked back, no actual spice nor bite in his comeback.

Vox laughed. "I bet you were about to. Anyhoo, shall we go?" He asked, prompting a question for the slayer to answer.

"Yeah, I know a small cafe nearby. We can go there if that suits your taste." Shoto replied casually, bending down to put on his shoes for the outside.

He was all ready to go as he looked up towards Vox who had his hair in a ponytail. Man, Shoto would love to tie his up like his other coworkers with long hair. But he knew that he wouldn't be able to maintain long locks of hair especially if it's a sunny day. That'd be a nightmare in his eyes.

Staring at Vox, he suddenly felt underdressed, even if he and the demon were about the same level of being presentable. "A cafe sounds nice." The demon agreed to the place.

"Okay, let's head on out." Shoto spoke, holding his bag near the side of his waist before leaving to the outside.
