"Hey, Mikleo! Have you seen that artifact-thingy we found yesterday!?"

Mikleo, who was not that far away, looked at Sorey with annoyance.

"I'm right here, you know. And it's not my fault that you misplaced your things."

"Ah, Man! That thing was so cool..."

Sorey continued to search around and was honestly making a mess.

"Hmm? Did an earthquake strike and I missed it?" Mikleo smirked.

Sorey pouted.

"Well, you could help me."

"Yeah, no, I'm busy."

"Doing what!? You look perfectly free to me."

"I-I'm doing plenty of things! I don't just laze around like you do."

"Aw, c'mon Mikleo! I'd help you out if you lost something!"

"Fine."

Mikleo reluctantly joined Sorey in his random search through all of his various objects. Within a few minutes, he produced a cube looking object. Mikleo handed it to Sorey.

"Thanks, Mikleo."

"You really should take better care of your possessions." Mikleo said. "Or maybe if you don't learn, I'll start hiding them from you." He added, smirking.

"Well, maybe, then I'll start hiding yours!"

"Oh? Is that a challenge?"

"Yeah, no thank you. If you take it, I'll never see it again."

Mikleo playfully punched him in the arm.

"Well, if you'll excuse me, I am extremely busy."

"Mmmhmm."

Mikleo ignored him and left the room. Today was just a normal day in the life of Sorey and Mikleo.
