Apple has been sitting on the base of Mekura’s bed for a while watching a movie, the mice were all settled around Mekura ‘sleeping’, but Apple was on the end of the bed eating an apple empanada silently. She’d been talking to herself earlier, but had stopped as the movie continued. She’d finished the empanada but was still hungry, she oozed silently off the bed and across the floor and down to the kitchen. She pulled the little apple sauce container off the counter and carried it to the living room where the really big TV was. She pulled open the applesauce and clicked on the TV setting it to her favorite show before sitting in the applesauce container and watching it. She’d forgotten to grab any mice, so she was just absorbing the applesauce.
The twins grinned at the Clover’s and thought we can go get them and have breakfast They grabbed the Clover’s and each other’s hands as they teleported all 4 for them to Mekura’s front door When we get inside stand perfectly still, don’t move till we tell you ok?
Upon getting Clover’s agreement to stay still they teleported inside and directly to Mekura’s room leaving Clover across the room from the bed before actually appearing on top of Mekura, being careful to catch two layers of comforter between them and her as they landed on her. They used to play the ‘sneak up on Mekura’ game when they were younger, but they hadn’t played in a while, they had advantages from surprise, their weight, and because there were two of them, but none of those would really help against Mekura, just help make the field more even. Only then did they touch Mekura’s mental shields and identify themselves, their mind voices were beside themselves laughing, they both knew this was dangerous, but it was worth it. The last time they’d done this Taylour had moved too slow and received a slash down his arm; it would have been his scalp if he’d been slower.

Mekura had heard the movement in the kitchen and figured it must have been Apple since she couldn't hear breathing. Settling back down in her bed she heard the Tv click on in the living room before she flicked off of the mice that digested fruit off the bed. The mouse grumbled before rolling out and down stairs to Apple. Slipping into another catnap Mekura almost failed to hear the subtle pop that followed teleportation affinities.
The Clover's smiled and tilted the hats down a bit in shyness. Okay... As she was told not to move. She clasped her other halfs hand as they were put in a corner in Mekura's room. Standing stock still Clover almost came undone when they pounced on Mekura.
As the twins tried to hold her down it was a bit quiet. And the thing beneath them didn't feel like a body. From behind them there was a click of a gun hammer being readied. Her body language was cold and ready for a fight despite being in light blue tank top and sweat pants. She had gotten a bit jumpy since River. Some one knew Nigarians were at the school and had sent her. Once they learned the child had failed they were sure to send someone else. Feeling the push on her barrier she relaxed feeling the twins thoughts. Flipping on the safety she released the hammer slowly and put the gun away before her after image had even flickered. "You boys are honestly courting death lately. Clover come on out. If their here so are you."
The Clover's gave a small grin as they stepped out of her hiding place and stared at the twins. "You lucky she didn't pull the trigger." Despite her teasing tone there was a layer of worry in her mind. What if Mekura had decided to pull the trigger and ask questions later?

Apple saw the blob coming down the stairs and absorbed it as it passed by, the blob was interested in the show though, and settled in to happily digest food and give the nutrients to Apple and herself.
The lump between them didn’t feel right they both turned around and Taylour came face-to-face with the barrel of Mekura’s gun; he was ready to fall back to avoid the bullet if he saw or felt the thought cross her mind. Taylour knew the bullet would still graze his head probably, but between falling and teleporting he’d avoid most of the damage; Taighler had also opened his wing partway, knowing it was thick enough to absorb most of the damage, but no one besides the twins would ever know that.
The twins were grinning, but Mekura would probably still be able to tell how nervous they’d been, she’d never pulled a gun during any of their bouts She must be really jumpy to be keeping a gun that close and ready for use The twins thought to each other, not letting anyone hear their thoughts. “We’d be fine. We have lightning fast reflexes, and Mekura always asks first, kills later; just like a momma bear. Besides, the shadow lover is said to be so perfect people would die to meet him or be courted by him.”
The twins stood up again taking on a more serious expression and said “Eh, we kind of deserve to be shot for that though. We shouldn’t have snuck up on you like that, not when we knew you’d be tired and jumpy. We just came to collect Apple and the mice, we were hoping to use your kitchen to make breakfast in, but we can use the dorm kitchen instead.” They thought to Clover to distract her We could make bacon, and pancakes, and waffles, eggs and toast, apple scones! It’s not like any of us need sleep
The twins turned and walked over to the door opening it for Clover to go through, not wanting to be rude to Clover. They then thought to Mekura and said we’re sorry, we’d forgotten how jumpy you’d been lately; want us to ‘fix’ the windows and doors to squeak again. We’ll let ourselves out, go to sleep.

Mekura ran a hand through her hair. She knew she had made the twins nervous. They knew her best, so they should have known she would be tense. Plus she had gotten used to them using the door lately. Placing her left hand on her hip she 'watched' the four of them. Mekura smiled at their attempt to cover up their nervousness but didn't pursue it. "Well I think you would prefer to court someone closer to you." She could feel Clover's nervousness at her statement. Blinking she wondered what the girl had to be nervous about. 'Boys did something happen between you and Clover?'
As Mekura and the boys spoke Clover sent her other half down stairs where she could hear the TV for Apple and the blob with her. Clover A on the other hand moved over to the bed and started collecting the mice as the sleepily rolled toward her.
"Sorry for being jumpy. Take what you need. The basket is in the bigger pantry and I just bought groceries. Also there are ten containers filled with dessert that Apple would like to take home." Mekura thought about what else she needed to tell Clover. "Oh and one of the mice swiped my Crystal Earrings. When you get them back can you return them please. I figure they will eventually end up with you."
Clover heard the boys in her mind and grinned. 'Sounds like a perfect Midnight breakfast.' Hearing Mekura she sighed. Of course the Mice would have fun new things. She would get them back to Mekura as soon as they ended up in her possession. "Yes I will return them as soon as they give them up."
Mekura waved off the thought of going back to sleep. "Let me help you put things together. What were you wanting for breakfast?" Moving past the teens she headed down stairs to her kitchen as she answered the twins. 'Please and thank you.' Pulling her basket out she set it on the table and flipped up one of the flaps. Quickly she packed cooking utensils for them since she knew that cooking utensils in the dorm kitchen didn't usually stay in the kitchen.

Apple heard someone coming down the stairs and was afraid Mekura was going to take her apple sauce and movie. Apple finished absorbing the apple sauce and flipped the container over her head and made a dash for under the couch, hoping to hide before she was spotted.
The twins glanced at the Clovers as Mekura said they’d prefer to court someone closer, blushing slightly. They said “Alas, we would very much like to catch the ladies eye, for she has stolen our hearts. But how do we court a princess such as her? she is above us.”
They relayed the story as they followed Mekura down and continued their conversation Yes, we met her for clubbing and some of our friends played a slow song, we were dancing with Clover, and we asked the DJ to play ‘Ghost of a Rose’ as we continued slow dance. As the song ended both Clovers kissed us, and we were stunned. She ran off towards the dorms thinking about Marie, Clover was afraid she’d hurt us. So we chased her and brought her back here after offering to make a delicious breakfast.
“10? Is she bringing home a 7 course meal or something?” The twins asked grinning; with Apple she probably wanted 10 empanadas in 10 different little containers. The twins opened the pantry and begin using telekinesis to move things towards the basket.
“We need bacon, syrup, waffle mix, eggs, bread. We’re planning a massive breakfast and cooking spree. Clover can you think of anything else we need?” They asked before pointing at the Clover and saying “That mouse, the white and brown spotted one took the earrings, but she gave one of then to the black mouse/blob... Those two are scheming with what to do with them.”

Clover B watched as the container went fleeing for the couch and dashed after it. Dropping to her knees she caught it and Apple. Lifting her up Clover B pulled the container off of Apple and gave a smile. "Ready to go home? Or at least to the dorm kitchen for a midnight breakfast?" Clover A on the other hand sat on the stairs as she watched the Twins follow Mekura into the kitchen.
Mekura chuckled as her camera caught them blushing as she opened the wavelengths. Rolling her eyes she read between the lines and sighed. Of course they thought Clover was a princess. As they packed the baskets she listened to their story of what had happened. Pulling up a small barrier around her thoughts as she thought about what they had said. It was certainly an interesting development. Packing the ingredients they asked for from the fridge she thought about how she could help them. 'so all you did to console her was ask her to breakfast? For having been girls in a previously life you really haven't grasped anything have you? I believe I will let you settle this one this time. Though I will let you know you may have only made her worry more over your behavior. Acting like nothing had changed....'
Pulling the syrup out of the cupboard she put it in the basket before pulling out some muffin mixes and putting them in the basket also. Soon Mekura started to pack the little containers Apple had packed. Clover A peeked around the corner of the Kitchen from her sitting spot on the stairs and watched at they spoke. As they asked her she shook her head before blinking when they pointed at her. "Okay thank you." Sitting back she pulled the fedora down a bit more as the tips of her hair turned a light blue. They were just acting as if she hadn't done anything. She should be glad but it for some reason it hurt instead. Blocking them from her thoughts before they could leak she set about haggling with her mice for Mekura's earrings.

Apple squealed as Clover scooped her up and removed her little container-hat. “Food! OOOOOOH, pretty dress! Can I have a pretty dress too?” Apple said in response to the idea of food, and when she saw the pretty white dress Clover was wearing. When Apple got into the hall and saw Clover A she got excited again and said “There’s two of you!!!! I want two of me too, how do I do that?” She said as she oozed over both sides of Clover’s hand, trying to divide into two, but only succeeding in spreading and oozing towards the ground.
The twins finished packing as Mekura thought to them and told them that they’d messed up. The twins thought to themselves Clover’s unhappy. Mekura’s right, but how do we fix this?
They then asked Mekura telepathically Can you please help us, we’re lost. When we were girls we never had boyfriends, not real ones anyways, we were weird and no one liked us. We’re technically still genderless, we just wore dresses more often in that life. We don’t want to mess things up with Clover more then we already have can you please help? Upon hearing Mekura’s answer they closed the basket and picked it up, walking back over to the stair to get Clover and Apple.
Mekura softened and walked over to the twins giving them hugs. Quickly she began helping them put things in the basket again. 'Boys, I am sure you will find a way to fix things. Though I guess one hint couldn't hurt. Try telling her how you feel when you get the nerve. Since you’re acting like nothing happened it will only deepen her worry and awkwardness.' She didn't mention Clover was most likely going to avoid them if they didn't do anything. Of course that was something she would leave them to deal with. With a comforting smile she followed them out of the kitchen and back to the Clovers and Apple.
“Um, we’re ready to go. You ready?” The twins said to Clover and offered their hands to help her up off the stairs smiling. How do we tell her how we feel….we suck at this…what would we want to hear if we were in her position…? They held the basket between the two of them as they walked down the path from Mekura’s house. “We’re going to teleport, ready?” The twins each took a Clovers’ hand and teleported to the kitchen. They set the basket down on the counter and smiled at Clover.

Clover B smiled as she held up Apple and headed back to Clover A. "Yes it is a very pretty dress. Maybe if you ask Tay-Tay they can help you out. Or see if Mekura can replicate the dress for you." Both Clovers giggled as they tilted the Fedora's up so they could see Apple as the baby henko tried to split herself in two. "I will teach you when you gain a bit more experience okay?" As the twins exited the kitchen both Clover's almost instantly pulled the fedora's down to hide their eyes.
Clover A looked at their offered hands and hesitantly took them before standing up. The Clover's hair quickly turned a bright red as they nodded instead of speaking. Mekura smiled encouragingly for the boys as she waved. "Have a good breakfast." As they teleported away Mekura rubbed her head and hoped for the best. Heading up the stairs she went back to bed.
Clover B transferred Apple to one hand as one of the twins took her hand. As they appeared in the kitchen at the dorm Clover B set Apple on a chair and both Clovers looked down at their dresses in shyness.
