Hero was silently watching the movie for a bit, eating his food and overall enjoying his time, at some point though he had to ask.

"Hey, Sunny? Who is all watching with us right now?"

Hero was honestly curious, as his glance switched between Sunny and the t.v

[˜”*°•.˜”*°• Hope for a better future •°*”˜.•°*”˜ @H0pefulFutur3]

[☀️]
Sunny nods and plays the movie.

[𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓖𝓮𝓷𝓽𝓵𝓮 𝓗𝓮𝓪𝓻𝓽ᅠ。 @TenderResolve]

"Sounds like the perfect movie to watch!"

He flashed Sunny a smile as he looked at the t.v.

"Sit down and eat then, we can worry about anything else later!"

[˜”*°•.˜”*°• Hope for a better future •°*”˜.•°*”˜ @H0pefulFutur3]

[☀️]
"Hmmmm...a cat comedy called '9 lives'...It's my favourite..."
Sunny smiles as he picked up the remote.

[𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓖𝓮𝓷𝓽𝓵𝓮 𝓗𝓮𝓪𝓻𝓽ᅠ。 @TenderResolve]

A few minutes later Hero followed with his own steak and fries, flashing Sunny a soft smile.

"Yo! What did you decide on for a movie?"

He calmly sat himself on the couch as he looked over at him, his plate with a fork and knife included of course now calmly lied on his lap.

[˜”*°•.˜”*°• Hope for a better future •°*”˜.•°*”˜ @H0pefulFutur3]

[🔪]
Omori nods and takes Sunny's plate with the steal to the boy, making sure to grab a fork and knife in the proccess.

[𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓖𝓮𝓷𝓽𝓵𝓮 𝓗𝓮𝓪𝓻𝓽ᅠ。 @TenderResolve]

"Why would they require you to say both opt---"

Hero decided it was best not to ask.

"Here please, I need a moment away from Sally and Kel, I can't hear myself think at home."

I know . I'm like. Required to say both cash options .

. . . Thanks, tho .

˖ ࣪⊹She would take the yen and put it in the cash register, before asking˖ ࣪⊹

Will that be to go, or will you eat it here .ᐣ

[𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓖𝓮𝓷𝓽𝓵𝓮 𝓗𝓮𝓪𝓻𝓽ᅠ。 @TenderResolve]

He flashed a soft smile to where the piece of paper was being held as he put one of the steaks whom was cooked medium on the plate.

"I'll be there shortly too! I just prefer my steak cooked well done, and don't want his food to get cold!"

[𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓖𝓮𝓷𝓽𝓵𝓮 𝓗𝓮𝓪𝓻𝓽ᅠ。 @TenderResolve]

"If those two accept you, every one will OMORI, don't you worry."

He smiled a bit as he put the fork near the pan and quickly put on an oven mitt taking the fries out of the oven and placing them equally across two plates.

"Omori, could you take Sunny his plate inside?"

[˜”*°•.˜”*°• Hope for a better future •°*”˜.•°*”˜ @H0pefulFutur3]

"Basil and Mari...accepted me..."
He wrote down again...smiling slightly, even if Hero couldn't see it.

[𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓖𝓮𝓷𝓽𝓵𝓮 𝓗𝓮𝓪𝓻𝓽ᅠ。 @TenderResolve]

like you tried to help Sunny cope with his sadness from within...And lastly, in a way...You are the reason I get to see Mari again. You and Sunny found a way for me to...Feel happier than I have in a long time...Does making someone happy not make you a good person, OMORI?"

[𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓖𝓮𝓷𝓽𝓵𝓮 𝓗𝓮𝓪𝓻𝓽ᅠ。 @TenderResolve]

". . ."

He took this all in, the information shared with him was alot...

"I understand...Not everything but I also had a moment where I wished for Sunny to..."

He stopped talking for a moment before he flashed a soft smile.

"But Sunny is still here, and I couldn't be

This was the first time...Omori ever felt such intense emotions outside HeadSpace battles...He feels guilt, remorse, regret for what he did...but this was the first time these emotions overwhelmed him...

[𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓖𝓮𝓷𝓽𝓵𝓮 𝓗𝓮𝓪𝓻𝓽ᅠ。 @TenderResolve]

happier...And honestly...There are still plenty of things I don't understand about all of this...But there are several things I do know, OMORI.

For one, you are a good kid NOW, you made mistakes but...From what I understand you changed. Two...In your own type of way it seems

[𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓖𝓮𝓷𝓽𝓵𝓮 𝓗𝓮𝓪𝓻𝓽ᅠ。 @TenderResolve]

"Aubrey I am pretty sure the yen is significantly less..."

At this he just let out a soft laugh handing her a few coins totally up to about 350 yen.

"Keep the change."

[𝙸𝚝 𝚖𝚎𝚊𝚗𝚝... 𝙴𝚅𝙴𝚁𝚈𝚃𝙷𝙸𝙽𝙶𓂃˖ ࣪⊹ @Muff1n_Stan]

⠀
Okay . . . (Scribble scribble . . . .)

. . . That'll be 11.98 Dollars or 300 yen .

Your pick .

[𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓖𝓮𝓷𝓽𝓵𝓮 𝓗𝓮𝓪𝓻𝓽ᅠ。 @TenderResolve]

"Omori...?"

Hero looked down at the piece of paper and the...tear on it?

"Hey did I make you upset? If so I am sorry...I---I didn't mean to upset you or anything!"

He just stood there unsure of what to do...It's not like he could just hug the kid...Or see him.

[˜”*°•.˜”*°• Hope for a better future •°*”��.•°*”˜ @H0pefulFutur3]

[🔪]
Although Hero couldn't hear or see it...Omori flinched...gasped a little even...
Him...? A good kid...? A tear slid down his face and fell on the paper...which was now clutched tightly by the younger monochrome child...it seems Hero's compliment got to him...

[𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓖𝓮𝓷𝓽𝓵𝓮 𝓗𝓮𝓪𝓻𝓽ᅠ。 @TenderResolve]

to my complaining, OMORI, I appreciate it a lot...You are a good kid."

[𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓖𝓮𝓷𝓽𝓵𝓮 𝓗𝓮𝓪𝓻𝓽ᅠ。 @TenderResolve]

"This is all still so confusing and surreal..."

The tall male took a a deep breath as his grip on the fork loosened.

"But...I really want to help Sunny...And...Of course see Mari again."

He said this second part a lot more quietly.

"Thank you for taking your time to listen

[˜”*°•.˜”*°• Hope for a better future •°*”˜.•°*”˜ @H0pefulFutur3]

[🔪]
"If it works then you should be able to see her...even Mari's excited at the possibility...but we can't tell until you and Sunny arrive in White Space...my room." -O

[𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓖𝓮𝓷𝓽𝓵𝓮 𝓗𝓮𝓪𝓻𝓽ᅠ。 @TenderResolve]

is true...? And...And..."

His hand tightened on the fork he was holding to flip the steaks.

"And...Can I...See...Mari again? Like...For real?"

[𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓖𝓮𝓷𝓽𝓵𝓮 𝓗𝓮𝓪𝓻𝓽ᅠ。 @TenderResolve]

"I see...I still don't claim to know everything of course and a lot...Is confusing for sure but...Clearly all of this is real...Somehow..."

Hero nodded to himself.

"And you are from some sort of dream world...Right? Do you think what Sunny said about me being able to visit

[˜”*°•.˜”*°• Hope for a better future •°*”˜.•°*”˜ @H0pefulFutur3]

Omori wrote down. Looks like this was going to be a long story.

[𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓖𝓮𝓷𝓽𝓵𝓮 𝓗𝓮𝓪𝓻𝓽ᅠ。 @TenderResolve]

"Uhhh yeah...Just a bottle of water is fine."

Hero just rubbed the back of his neck now.

"Oh and uhhh...Good job...On...Being an adult and all."

. . . Well, I have to get food for Hoppers somehow .

˖ ࣪⊹Getting out a notepad as she would then write things down, before asking˖ ࣪⊹

Okay, so hero sandwich with extra meat .ᐣ Would you like a drink with that .

[𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓖𝓮𝓷𝓽𝓵𝓮 𝓗𝓮𝓪𝓻𝓽ᅠ。 @TenderResolve]

"Then tell me Omori...In all honesty...How has Sunny been? Both before fessing up and after...?"

Hero continued to cook but kept looking at the floating piece of paper.

[˜”*°•.˜”*°• Hope for a better future •°*”˜.•°*”˜ @H0pefulFutur3]

[🔪]
A piece of paper slid close to Hero.
"Yea, just me. Big sis Mari went with Sunny." -O

[𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓖𝓮𝓷𝓽𝓵𝓮 𝓗𝓮𝓪𝓻𝓽ᅠ。 @TenderResolve]

Hero smiled slightly as he watched Sunny leave,

He'd continue prepping the food for the two but halfway through spoke up.

"Any one still in the room with me?"

He asked almost conspiratorially as if still somewhat unsure all of this was real.

[˜”*°•.˜”*°• Hope for a better future •°*”˜.•°*”˜ @H0pefulFutur3]

[☀️]
Sunny say the paper and sighed.
"Omori...I thought we agreed that stayed between us..."
He murmured quietly before heading out into the living room.

[𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓖𝓮𝓷𝓽𝓵𝓮 𝓗𝓮𝓪𝓻𝓽ᅠ。 @TenderResolve]

"That is a joke...Right?"

Hero seemed surprised after he read the piece of paper.

"Either way...I'll make sure to season it well, Sunny, you head to the livingroom.

I'll be out once it's done!"

[˜”*°•.˜”*°• Hope for a better future •°*”˜.•°*”˜ @H0pefulFutur3]

[☀️]
"Mmmm...as long as it's tasty and well seasoned...I don't care how it's cooked..."
[🔪]
A piece of paper floated above Sunny's head.
"This idiot ate microwaved raw stake...that I think was expired?" -O

[𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓖𝓮𝓷𝓽𝓵𝓮 𝓗𝓮𝓪𝓻𝓽ᅠ。 @TenderResolve]

"Just...Surprised to see you here."

~And working~

Is what he thought, but no way was he going to say THAT part.

"Can I have a HERO sandwich please, Aubrey? Extra meat."
