"What do you play?" Malekai asks, looking away from his book to look at Theodore. "If you don't mind my asking." He adds after.

Theo shook his head with a smile. "No i don't mind at all, master. I mostly play the violin, but I also play the piano. I use the piano when I want to see if a song sounds better on the piano or on the violin. And when I just want a break from playing the violin."

“Interesting.” Malekai said when Theodore was done speaking. That gave him an idea for tomorrow.

Theodore shrugged a bit and from the spot he was, continued to look at the book.

Malekai scooted a bit closer to Theo, so the human could see the book a bit better. Some of the songs in the book were unfinished, and written in pecil with little notes along them.

Theodore looked at the notes at the side of the songs and tried to read what they said. He managed to read through a bit, but then gave up. He sighed as he sunk into the couch, looking up to the ceiling.

Malekai noted the sigh. "So, you said you had a family once. What happened to them?" He asked.

"Oh not much. My mum and dad died when I was like thirteen or so and I had to take care of my three year old sister. And then she grew up and decided to just disappear from the very earth. About two years later, I found her walking around and she told me she had been taken in. I felt happy for her, I guess, but it didn't last for long. She explained to me how she kept making attempts to escape and how it ended badly for her. She begged me to help her, but l guess I was still mad at how she left without no explanation, because next thing I know, I left not even bothering to look back. And now I haven't heard of her, so I don't know if she's alive or if she's dead."

He looked at Kai with a sheepish look. "Sorry, I was ranting wasn't I?"

Malekai listened carefully, sighing some. "No, no… I guess it makes me feel better that I didn't take you from anyone, but… That's just awful…"

(Sorry I haven't responded in a while.)

"Well, yeah. I got used to it. I never really told anyone y'know my life because people usually would tell me to shut up and that I was just an annoying brat that should've died alongside my parents, and those people were like people I used to be close with. I actually can't believe I considered them friends. ."

(That's okay!)

Malekai stayed quiet a moment as he listened, eyebrows furrowed. "Wow… You… You've had a rough time with humans too, then…"

Theodore nodded. "I have a hard time trusting anyone. Humans or other species. I just don't want anyone to hurt me, and when I feel like I'm letting them to close to me, I shut them out." He sighed and closed his eyes. "The world is a terrible, terrible place."

Malekai chuckled some a his last statement. "You're not wrong there. the world is a fcking btch. But you either live with it or you die. That's how it goes."

"That's how it goes. . ." He shook his head and opened his eyes. "I always thought of it to be kill or be killed. Not like I have killed anyone before, but that's just what they said to me."

Malekai nodded. "I know what you mean. I…" He stopped, shaking his head some. "Nevermind…"

Theodore looked at Kai cursiouly, waiting for him to finish his sentence, but then he noticed he shook his head. Whatever must've happened to him must've been big if Malekai didn't want to talk about it.

MAlekai sighed some. "S-sorry… I don't feel comfortable discussing this with, well… A human."

Theodore nodded, looking a hurt for a bit, but it quickly disappeared. "I understand, master."

Malekai saw his hurt expression, feeling a bit guilty. "I.. I'm sorry, I didn't mean it like that… I just don't have great experiences with humans…"

"No, no. It's fine. You don't have to apologize. You did nothing wrong. I understand, I really do, Master." Theodore said with a fake smile. Even though Malekai had apologized, he still felt hurt. He shook that feeling away. He wasn't one to get too emotional.

Malekai sighed some, getting up from the couch and slithering to the kitchen. "Macaroni for dinner?"

Theodore nodded as he smiled slightly at Malekai. He got up from his spot on the couch and walked to the kitchen, just looking around.

Malekai got up and headed to the kitchen to make dinner, humming a tune as he moved about the kitchen. He grabbed a rat for himself, swallowing it.

Theodore shivered slightly when he saw Kai swallowing the rat whole. He was never going to get used to seeing someone eat an animal.

Malekai noticed his discomfort. “I’ll start eating when you’re asleep or something, if you don’t like seeing it.”
