Draaagin laid across the floor with his head rested on his right hand while he tapped his fingers with his left.

"So Draaagin inspirited the butler instead of Katie then." Said Sailornyan. "While I appreciate that, I have to ask why since it was Katie who performed the ritual?"

"I said preforming the ritual would invite him into your house, not that it would make him inspirit you." Explained Lie-in Heart while Sailornyan side-eyed him.

"Hey Lie-in Heart, how ya doin' maaan?" asked Draaagin.

"I've been better honestly, but tonight isn't about me." Lie-in Heart replied while pointing at Katie. "That girl is the one who requires your assistance."

"Good evening." Katie bowed.

"Hmmm? Could you be the famous Katie Forester that LH has told me sooo much about?" asked Draaagin.

Katie smiled and blushed. "Well I don't about famous, but yeah that's me."

"Well it's real pleasure to finally meet you in person and I gotta say, I'm looovin' the minimalistic look. The towel, the messy hair, and no shoes ooor socks. Tells me that you're the type of person who doesn't care about what society thinks of you, and you fix yourself up wheneeever you feel like it." Draaagin then gave her a thumbs up. "Faaar out, sister. Faaar out."

Katie's face turned completely red as she finally realized how unpresentable she looked. "Oh no no no I don't always look like this! I just got out of the bathtub not too long ago that's all."

"Stiiill, you put off getting dressed and brushing your hair anyway, which is why I was able to come here. Riiight on."

"Ugh, I can't believe I'm letting you be seen like this by so many males!" Groaned Sailornayn. "This goes against everything I stand for! Can you please just hurry up and explain why we need his help so you can make yourself decent?"

…

"So that's why we need your help." Katie finished explaining.

"Mmmm, what a draaag." Draaagin replied. "I do nooot approve of what Tattlecast is doing at all, no no no. Personally I believe people should alllways be honest with themselves and others, but if someone has a secret to keep then it should stay a secret. Know what I meeean?"

Katie smiled. "Right! So you'll help us then?"

"Mmmm, I don't knooow. Why don't we discuss this in a week or sooo?"

"Weren't you listening you hemming and hawing demon?" asked Sailornyan. "We don't have a "week or soooo!" The concert is tomorrow!"

"I know but it's just reaaally hard to decide whether or not tomorrow's a good day for me to help you." Draaagin replied.

"Geez, this guy really is indecisive." Groaned Katie.

"I warned you." Lie-in Heart said while now eating cup ramen.

"You're still eating!?"

"Apologies, but I'm afraid the taste of the daikon still stains my tongue."

"Then why not chew some gum or something instead of eating my parents and I out of house and home?"

"No worries, I'll leave my donation before I leave."

"That's not the issue here. Besides, dad's still wondering where the money you left last time came from."

The scent of the noodles caught Draaagin's attention. "Saaay buddy, you gonna share those with your good pal Draaagin?"

"He should, given how much he's already eaten tonight." Sailornyan sarcastically replied. Her patience with the gluttonous lion was stretched as thin as ever.

"It's not as good as the real thing. Trust me you're not missing out on much." Lie-in Heart assured.

"Well ramen is ramen my friend, and if there's aaany food that makes Draaagin's tummy jump for joy, it's ramen." Draaagin replied.

"Heh, I know. You didn't even think twice about digging into your seafood ramen when you got it back at the restaurant."

Katie suddenly got an idea. "Well guess what Draaagin?"

"Hmmm?"

"Springdale is home to the best ramen restaurant in the world."

"It's mediocre at best in my op-" Sailornyan said before getting cut off by Katie who picked her up while putting her hand over her mouth.

"It's called, North Wind Ramen. Their specialty is the Everything Ramen."

"Eeeverything Ramen?"

"Yeah "Eeeverything" Ramen. It's got pork, seafood, eggs-"

"Kombu seaweeed pieces? Shiitake mushrooom dashi?"

"Yep! … I think." A sweat drop appeared on the side of Katie's head.

"Katie, I can't breathe!" Sailornyan complained while her face turned blue with her voice being muffled by Katie's hand.

"Mmm, sounds like a goood time sister. Thooough, do you think could spot a dragon the cost of a bowl? Forgot my wallet and Iii can't decide if I should go get it or not."

"Oh no worries, Draaagin. It's my treat!"

"Reeeally? Lie-in Heart, my man, you sure have some greaaat friends."

"Katie, that ramen is very expensive I hear." Lie-in Heart chimed in. "Are you certain you can afford it?"

"Even it costs half of my allowance I have no choice. It's the only thing that's gonna motivate Draaagin." Explained Katie.

"Sooo sister, we gonna skedaddle or what?" asked Draaagin.

"Not so fast. I'll only buy it after you help us tomorrow."

"Mmmm, what a draaaag."

"Come on, what you have to do is easy and afterward it's ramen city!"

Lie-in Heart got up from Katie's bed, much to the pleasure of the still struggling Sailornyan, walked over to Draaagin, and offered his ramen cup. "Consider this a prosaic preview of what's to come." Lie-in Heart said.

The smell of the noodles filled Draaagin's nostrils with bliss. "Mmm, smells deeelicious." He said as he took the cup ramen and gulped the noodles down like a beverage. "Taste eeeven better! Alllright, I've made up mind. Leeet's do it!"

"Yes!" exclaimed Katie.

Draaagin handed Katie his medal. It depicted him standing with his left hand on his hip and his right hand out as if he were negotiating with someone. "Heeere's my medal, Katie. Call me wheneeever it's time for me to go to work."

"Thanks!" As Katie reached for the medal, Sailornyan was able to force herself out of her grasp.

"Alright," she heavily panted. "Now that all of this is settled can the three of you please leave the room so Katie can change into her pajamas?"

"Just give me a minute." Whisper said, still under Draaagin's influence, while picking his nose.

"Meee too." Agreed Draaagin.

"The time has not yet come for me to leave." Stated Lie-in Heart. "After everything I ate, I need to wait at least two hours before any physical activity, including walking long distances."

Sailornyan snapped and pulled out two large paper fans and started wildly flailing them around. "GET. OUT. NYOOOW! Get out get out get out!"

"Ow! Not the face!"

"Heeey, that hurts!"

"Yowch! I'm her temporary butler, you can't kick me out!"

"Eeek! Sailornyan calm down, you almost hit me!"

A young boy passing by Katie's house could hear the commotion coming from her room while reading a pocket-sized book, but could not see what was going on because the curtains were closed. He had green eyes and grayish messy hair wearing a blue sweater vest over a white shirt and black shorts. "So noisy." He said with an indifferent expression, followed by him snapping his fingers causing the five to suddenly collapse on the floor, or face-first onto Katie's rear in Sailornyan's case.
