Rose came out from Add's lab to have dinner. She sighed and ate her dinner in the living room while sitting on the rug. "There was a problem with Add's stuff and now he doesn't want to eat until it's fixed. I felt so bad I couldn't even help him," she said, feeling disappointed she couldn't be useful.

"Relax! He'll come out by himself when he's really hungry," Twilight said as she watched Rose while lying down on the rug.

"Huh, funny. He needs to abandon hope. Maybe start stripping," Shakti said with a smirk.

"Oh my god! Twilight!" Rena rushed over her clone and sat next to her, showing a video on her phone. Twilight's eyes widened, she immediately got up and watched the video closely. "He's so cute!" Rena squealed in excitement. Twilight soon followed up and both of them went to their own world.

"We're home!"

Aisha and Nisha were finally home. Nothing interesting happened today, so they didn't have much to tell.

"It's my other self! We have to compose a new album!" Labyrinth walked toward them in excitement. She showed her papers; music sheet, lyrics, and the dress design. She even had a bit of choreography for a song that hadn't existed yet.

"Surprise me. Discuss it with someone. Maybe they could be an inspiration," Nisha said as she skimmed through the papers.

Labyrinth took her papers back and approached the certain people. Aisha tilted her head a bit. "You wanna be an idol?"

"I do, but I'm well aware I suck at it," Nisha smiled and faced Aisha. "Being a magician is fine too, although I do things differently."

"Guys, I'm going out!"

Ciel walked toward the front door with a troubled look. Nisha lifted one of her eyebrows in confusion. "Why are you going out this late?"

"Lu hasn't come back home. She'll be fine, but…" Ciel smiled slightly, and waved his hands at them. He was worried, even though he knew Lu would be fine by herself. He definitely could talk with her through telepathy, but he wanted to see her. He just wanted to meet her himself.

"There! …Nevermind, just another plane passing by," Lu sighed in disappointment at the sight of a moving white light.

Lu brought Chung to a hill in a different town. They sat on the grass and looked at the stars in the sky. Lu was waiting for a real meteor, but so far, she found nothing.

"Are you going to make a wish on a falling star?" Chung asked, still keeping an eye on what's in front of him.

"No, that's for stupid people," Lu giggled and shook her head. She didn't know what to do. Her only idea was getting away from the group and staying at the hill to wait for Ciel. She didn't know what to do while waiting for him. They bought food, but they already ate it. "Maybe I should've bought more snacks."

"Just drink blood," Chung replied whatever came to his mind. Now he wondered what demons eat to keep living. Maybe fresh meat from living beings?

"That's for lowling vampires," Lu pouted and moved closer to Chung. It's getting chilly, she wanted to feel warmth by getting close to him. She rested her head on his arms, realizing that Chung was also freezing. "You know what? We should've bought sweaters."

"Ask a random bear to hug you," Chung pointed at a random forest near them.

"You can hug me instead. Be the bear!" Lu smiled and sat in front of Chung, asking for a hug. And Chung actually hugged her from the back, holding her close to his freezing body. She giggled, feeling her head getting hot. Was she blushing?

Suddenly a gun materialized in Chung's hand. Lu stared at it for a while, then she looked at Chung's face. He was narrowing his eyes, looking at the left side and getting ready to shoot whatever behind them. "It's Ciel," Lu informed him. Chung startled a bit, the gun disappeared from his hand.

"Why are you guys here?" Ciel asked, still panting heavily. He didn't manage to approach them closer and just laid down on the grass.

"Nice job, you found me in 172 minutes. Be faster next time!" she smiled and looked at Ciel next to her. She was so glad she finally met him again. It felt so long, even though it was only a day.

"You guys are literally in another town!" Ciel yelled with a worried look. Chung broke the hug, letting Lu glomped at Ciel. The servant wasn't ready, he fell to the ground with Lu on top of him. He hugged her tightly and patted her head. He couldn't stop thinking about her since she left the house, it was so relieving to see her fine.

Lu moved away and laid down next to Ciel. She patted the empty space on her right, telling Chung to lie down next to her. They're still seeing the same sky with some planes passing by.

"I'll come with you tomorrow, Lu. Being separated is stressing me," Ciel said as he looked at his master. One day Lu might get a boyfriend. He couldn't stay with her all the time, but at the same time, he felt selfish for wanting Lu to be with him all the time.

Lu giggled and faced Ciel. "It is, Ciel. But if you ever get a girlfriend, I can't stay with you all day. I need to get used to this."

Ciel was surprised to hear the same thing from Lu. They had the same mind; they wanted each other to find their loved one and be happy. They could just date to solve the problem, but their bond didn't work like that. It was more of a family—something that they never had. "Do you even have someone in mind, Lu?"

"Hm… I do. My love doesn't work like a toy, unlike those girls," Lu giggled and looked at the sky again. "What about you? I know you like cute things, but have you ever got interested in those big breasts?"

Ciel's face got red when he heard the question. "I don't have someone in mind, but of course I would be interested in those once in a while."

"I don't care if you like males either. Anything works," Lu smirked and faced Chung. "Chung, what about you—"

She stopped her words when she realized Chung fell asleep. He's facing away from her, but he didn't respond to any of Lu's calls. Lu sighed and got up. "Were you guys playing Ouija board again? With Nisha this time?"

Ciel chuckled and got up as well. "Yeah, we were. Nisha knew about the board anyway."

There was a white line in the sky. "Ah, a real falling star!" Lu shouted as she pointed at it. She closed her eyes and made a short prayer. She doubted it would work, when she didn't even pray to any gods as a former demon lord, but humans did it anyway. "Nothing wrong with asking for a wish, right? I'm blending in with the humans," Lu opened her eyes with a smile and stood up. "Let's go! You carry Chung!"

Ara couldn't keep her cool for the last few minutes. She kept moving her legs and hands, her eyes looking left and right. The place was fancy, not really a place she would go. The customers were mostly couples having dinner. She opened the menu on the table, trying to distract herself from the fact that they looked like they were a couple.

Ain noticed Ara felt uneasy, but he didn't know why. He could only make assumptions based on what he understood. "Sorry for taking you on a date without your consent."

Ara's face turned bright red, her whole head felt so hot. She was hoping "a date" was just her imagination, but Ain actually said it… with a straight face. The angel didn't seem to understand the concept of a date. It made her feel confused and happy at the same time. She was really hungry, but she would be embarrassed to eat a lot of food in a fancy restaurant, especially on a date. She looked through the menu and ordered simple food. "I-I'll order tuna salad."

Ain raised his one eyebrow and stared at Ara. "Aren't you hungry? Order what you like. Don't be shy."

Ara forced herself to laugh and looked at the meat session on the menu. "Do you even know what a date is, Ain?"

"Yes, to build a closer relationship, an intimate one. Am I wrong?" Ain asked as he looked back at the menu.

"No…" Ara giggled, feeling more relaxed than before. It's funny to her that Ain was borderline confessing, being too honest with his feelings and saying it to the person like it was a normal conversation. It's also funny to her, she actually loved it.

After they ordered their food, they had to wait. Ara didn't know what to talk about. This was awkward, but she didn't dislike it. She felt comfortable, to be exact.

"Ara, did you finally get a hobby?"

"Hm… I'm not sure. I like sparring," Ara answered, remembering the moment she asked for a book recommendation from Chung. What did she like to do anyway? She couldn't answer it herself.

"Then we can spar in our free time," Ain replied, not even asking if Ara wanted to do it or not.

The first drink came out; a honey lemon tea with 2 straws. Ara didn't know what to drink, so she chose the common drink she could find. She picked up the glass and faced Ain. "Drink it with me!"

Ain got confused for a bit because it was Ara's drink, but he accepted it. Both of them leaned their faces closer to each other to drink the tea. Ara's face turned redder while Ain's complexion was still normal.

Ara giggled as she moved away. "We'll do the same thing on your drink later, then we can chow down the whole meal!"

Everyone in the house was talking to their clone. Not really everyone because some people lost their clones or hadn't come home yet.

Rena couldn't stop squealing in the living room, her heart felt hurt from too much fangirling. She smiled, facing Twilight and hugged her. "Thank you so much. I never had a fangirling friend before."

"Of course! We're the same, but I'm just way more ignorant than you," Twilight smiled back and giggled. "Stop caring about the others for once, me. It's fine to cosplay and dress up people all day~!"

Rena giggled and shook her head. As much as she wanted to do it, she couldn't do it "all day". Everyone had something to do too.

Code: Ultimate sneered at them, sitting on her throne that she summoned out of nowhere. "I agree with Twilight. There is nothing more important than sweets. It makes people fat, but it is the best source of happiness. Everyone must eat sweets and this world will be in peace forever!"

"Where did Elsword and Eve go anyway? They haven't come home yet," Rena said, glancing at the front door once in a while.

"Aren't we waiting for Chung? We're going to dress him up," Twilight said with a confused look, also glancing at the front door.

On the second floor, in the bedroom on the corner, Rose and her clone were ranting to each other. They insulted many things, including their own friends. It was mostly the stuff that Rose kept for herself because she had no one to talk to. Add knew about it, but only him and he obviously didn't tell anyone.

"You should be honest once in a while. This is refreshing," Raven commented, laughing at almost everything. He found the rant funny because he didn't see Rose getting angry often.

"This world is filled with snowflakes. I can literally say hi and someone will be offended," Minerva said with an annoyed tone. She just got angry at anything now.

"Why did you knock out your clone?" Noah asked as he poked Furious Blade's body on the floor. Raven simply answered that his other self will only annoy people.

"You, little kid," Minerva pointed her finger at Noah, "Get some muscles or you'll be dead instantly in a war."

"I-It's fine! Yes, I…" Noah got confused, even though he knew what Minerva was trying to say. He wasn't sure how to respond to that.

In the empty space of the second floor, Elesis watched her other self trying several cute dresses. Timoria played along with Empire Sword and tried out different outfits. She was very happy about it like a little kid getting new clothes.

"It's fine! We can be cute too," Empire Sword smiled and spun to change to another cute dress. Elesis smiled back, wasn't sure what to say. She had always wanted to try cute dresses, but now that her clone did it, maybe it wouldn't be so bad.

"Very cool, very nice, approved by the idol herself, Nisha Labyrinth!" Labyrinth nodded and clapped at them. She enjoyed the mini fashion show she was seeing. She even played along with them for fun.

"Just do what you like, Elesis. I think it fits you. Laby likes it too," Nisha said with a serious look, surprising Elesis because she didn't expect such words. Aisha didn't know what to say, so she was just agreeing with people.

Back to the living room, Rena glanced at the front door and it actually opened. Ara and Ain came home and greeted them. Shakti immediately approached them in her bikini. "Come on, touch me, myself. I need someone to satisfy me," she winked and showed off her chest to Ara.

Ara's face turned red and shook her head quickly. "N-No! Don't do that here, we have an underaged kid," she said in panic and pushed Shakti away from everyone.

Ain sighed and stared at Abysser, still lying down on the floor doing nothing. Mad Paradox was next to him, drawing the face with a marker while Fatal Phantom helped him. Why did he trust that clone in the first place?

When midnight came, the clones slowly disappeared into thin air. The house became really quiet because they just lost almost half of their number.

Click!

"We're home!" Lu smiled and raised her hands. Ciel and Chung followed her from the back. Chung rubbed his eyes, trying to not fall asleep again even though he looked really tired.

Rena greeted them back with a smile. She made up her mind; she approached Chung to talk to him. The girls kept saying he can be cool, so she wanted to know if this cool side of him would show up by chance. "Chung, I really need to talk to you! Only for a while, I know you're tired," she put her palms together and smiled.

"What is it?" Chung nodded and followed Rena to the backyard. He was already half awake, so he might have given a wrong response to the elf.

"I saw you on Lu's TokTik. I really love your crossdress. I'm sure you remember when I used to dress Elsword. You know where this is going, right?" Rena asked with a forced smile. Even though he seemed happy on the video, she didn't remember he actually loved it.

Chung's eyes widened in surprise, he wasn't half awake anymore. His face flushed red, quickly looking away from Rena's eyes. Since the elf was trying to be a cosplayer, he totally knew where this was going. "Please? It's just for cosplay!" she begged for more. She was imagining him to crossdress as a young female character. Because puberty somehow hated him, his height didn't grow much and considered short for a male.

Chung stared at Rena with a terrified look and took a step backward. "W-What are you imagining? Why is your heart beating so fast?"

Rena was startled when she heard the question. She didn't realize her face was hot, meaning she was blushing. She could hear her own heartbeat too. She might have imagined it too hard. She forced herself to laugh. "I'm… imagining you crossdressing," she answered with honesty.

Chung nodded slightly. "I-I'll do it, but I don't think I can help you with the clothes—"

"I'll handle that!" Rena smiled and took out a measuring ruler from her pocket, scaring Chung even more. She found it funny to see him get scared, so she laughed unintentionally. "How are you fine with maid outfit and not this? Don't be shy!"

"It's my job. If the cafe is crowded, we get a bigger payment," Chung explained as he took another step backward, staring at the measuring ruler in Rena's hand.

Rena nodded and smirked. She definitely had an idea on how to get Chung to crossdress. "If our cosplay can get popular, we can get money from the internet. How's that sound to you?"

Chung turned to silence. He didn't have a phone, he didn't know how social media works. But he saw the cafe getting customers after Lu recorded videos of them before. He didn't understand, but he knew he could be helpful somehow. He was still scared seeing Rena get too excited, but he walked closer to her. "Okay, do what you need."

Rena squealed and held Chung's shoulders. Her face turned redder and now she had a wilder imagination. "Why are you so submissive—I mean, thank you!" she shouted, couldn't hold her excitement any longer and patted his head.

Chung's face flushed red as he tried to back away from Rena's hand, but she got to pat him anyway. "Please just do what you want—"

"I need to check your thighs!" Rena shouted and lifted up Chung's pants tracing his right leg from the foot to thigh.

"W-Wait!"

After Elsword and Eve gained as much information as possible, the couple came home past midnight. They walked separate ways; Eve was going to the girls' room while Elsword was going upstairs. Eve entered the room and joined the circle while telling them what she was doing the whole day. She didn't say everything, though.

"Guess what, Ara had dinner with Ain," Elesis said with a smile and stared at Ara, who got flustered instantly from hearing that.

"Eve, you should see Lu's videos!" Rena shouted, trying to hold her squeal and excitement while holding Eve's shoulders.

Eve sighed, knowing something was off when Ara and Ain refused to let them go to the cafe. Seeing Rena's behavior made it clearer. "Let me guess… He's crossdressing?"

"Yes! And I got his body measurement for our cosplay!" Rena showed a paper in her hand to the girls. It's data to make custom clothes; body height, chest size, and others. She made a peace sign with her right fingers, looking at Elesis and Lu. "And I grabbed those thighs!"

Eve stared at Rena with an extremely concerned look. She didn't remember the elf losing her sense of justice like this. What happened between her and her clone when she was gone? "It's smooth with muscles, not that jiggly, but very nice shape," Rena continued, imagining herself grabbing Chung's thighs.

"Did you strip him?" Eve asked in curiosity. Sure, Chung has shorts, but she didn't remember him wearing them today. Rena's description was too detailed.

"Almost. I told him about cosplay clothing," Rena grinned and put her palms together. "He really has a kid's body, though. I don't see muscles anywhere, but I can feel them when I touched his body—"

"Stop! Why are you so horny lately?!" Ara shouted and glomped at Rena to stop her from fantasizing. Rena just laughed and let Ara stay on top of her.

"Can I go see your performance tomorrow? I need new content!" Lu said to Aisha and Nisha. She would go to the cafe again, but she wanted to visit places with Ciel. And… the conversation reminded her and Aisha of something, it felt so awkward, she wanted to change the subject quickly.

Meanwhile on the second floor, the boys were watching TV. Noah bought a lot of snacks for them to eat. The movie was a horror genre, but they were just laughing at every jumpscare. Even Noah and Ain were talking about something else and didn't pay attention to the movie at all.

Ciel looked at Chung, who just got up because of a jumpscare sound. The boy was rubbing his eyes, probably half awake at this point. "Chung, thanks for today."

Chung looked at Ciel with a confused look. He thought he was still dreaming and hearing things, so he tilted his head and waited for Ciel to continue. "Thank you for playing with Lu. I was concerned she would get bored and make trouble."

"Don't thank me. I gave her the idea to run away," Chung replied and looked away from Ciel. Lu spent time with Ara and Ain too, not just him alone. Why did Ciel thank him personally anyway?

Ciel remembered Fatal Phantom loved headpats, so… maybe Chung would love it too? His left hand was slowly reaching Chung's head to pat him. But when he did, Chung faced him and narrowed his eyes. "Did you smoke weed to cope?" he asked with a threatening tone, but his face blushed a bit.

Noah overheard them talking. He turned his face, seeing Ciel moved his hand away from Chung's head. He chuckled and patted Chung's head. "Do you like headpats? Pat, pat…"

Chung didn't answer it, but he didn't deny the headpats either. He curled up into a ball, hiding his face by facing down. Ciel let them be and looked at the TV. He had to report this to Lu.

"Lu, he does like headpats."

After a moment, Lu responded to him.

"Huh, really? Who would have thought that stoic kid would get flustered over headpats…"

Ciel looked at Chung again. He didn't even move anymore, probably fell asleep after getting more headpats from Noah. Ain got up to carry Chung's body with both his hands. "I still don't trust you," he said to Ciel before taking Chung to the bedroom.

"Do you have feelings for him, Lu?"

The next thing he heard was something like screamed right to his ears, but it went to his mind instantly.

"It's only been 2 days since our conversation in the garden and you're already asking about feelings?! Ciel, go sleep!"

Ciel sighed and continued to watch the movie. Lu might be right, maybe he should sleep.

Potion ideas are always acceptable~
