Helios and Gwen are now sitting face to face, staring at each other’s blue eyes rather seriously. Both of them crossed their arms, and around them, a ss of papers.
They were doing a staring contest, whoever wins gets to choose the topic of the project. So far, there is no clear winner, and it’s been almost 5 minutes.
Gwen narrowed her eyes as she tried to maintain her opened eyes, but then, Helios blew wind to her face, making her lose the battle.
“Hey! That’s cheating!” whined Gwen.
“There’s no rule against doing that.” Helios stuck his tongue out, mocking Gwen.
“You’re such a anie!” Gwen huffed.
“Okay, I choose!” said Helios excitedly.
“But I want to choose!” Gwen whines as she sobbed, starting to cry.
Helios went wide eyed for a second, panicking as he saw tears started to co out of Gwen’s eyes.
Gwen started to wipe her tears continuously as she sobbed, not moving an inch.
“H-Hey.. Gweny… why are you crying..?” questioned Helios in worry, mostly worrying about the consequences.
“Because Theo’s a anie!” Gwen continued to cry.
“O-Okay!” Helios started to relent, fearing the wrath of the policeman. “You choose, you choose, don’t cry!”
Gwen’s expression started to brighten in an instant, standing up as she wiped off the last of her ‘tears’. “Yes! I’m choosing!” she exclaid.
Helios was obviously gobsmacked, this girl in front of him changes mood easily, not a minute earlier, she was crying, now? She was jumping in celebration. Helios knew now that this girl in front of him was dangerous, he heard his sister Cleo who visited once last year that this kind of girl exists, and he should be careful around them.
“Then let’s do penguins!” Gwen exclaid, breaking Helios from his daydream.
“What? But you said Penguins are boring!” stated Helios.
“Well… I was lying…” Gwen acts shy in front of Helios, dangerous indeed.
Helios sighed. “Then what should we make?”
“Let’s paint!” said Gwen, pointing at the painting kit that sits on the corner of the room.
“Okay…” Helios murmured in disappointnt. “But we can’t use that… that’s my dad’s… mine’s here…” he said as he walked to the other corner of the room, full of childish drawings.
“You have your own? cool…” said Gwen in admiration.
Helios just humd as he grabbed a blank canvas. “Let’s go draw a penguin then…”
Gwen acted hurt suddenly. “Do you not like it?”
“What?”
“You sound like you’re mad at for choosing penguins…” Gwen started to sob again.
“What?! No!” Helios exclaid in panic. “N-No… I- I like it… Yes! I like it!”
Her mood changes really quickly once again. “Okay! If you like it, let’s draw two penguins!”
“S-Sure…”
Gwen quickly grabbed a pencil, and sketched a horrible drawing of two penguins on the canvas as a start. “Is that good?”
‘This is a trick question.’ thought Helios seriously, trying to analyse the situation as far as six years old could. “Er… yes?”
“You sound like you’re lying…” Gwen acted hurt again.
“N-No… I’m not…” Helios said in defence.
“Then let’s draw an egg between them!” Gwen changed again, drawing an egg between the badly drawn Penguins.
Helios gulped at the sight of Gwen’s excitent, This creature in front of him… dangerous indeed…

anwhile, Pluto and Thena were in the TV room, Pluto had set up a secret cara inside the painting room, and both of them sat on the sofa, with popcorn in their hands.
“I love parenting if it’s like this all the ti.” Thena said jokingly.
“You an seeing our kid get played by a little girl? Oh yes, I love this.” Pluto also said jokingly.
“Look at this face.” Thena chuckled. “The sense of dread as Gwen started to cry… priceless… it almost makes it worth it dealing with his cries when he was a baby.”
“And his bursts of powers…” Pluto chuckled. “The amount of ti I have to fix the dining table because of him is honestly quite astounding…”
“Hm, speaking of powers, when do you think we should start training him?”
“When did Thor and Loki start again? 10? 11?” Pluto thought. “How about when he was 10? That should be good enough.”
“Every sumr right? At the mansion?”
“Yes.” Pluto humd. “We can go all out training him there.”
Pluto then watched as Gwen played Helios with her words again, making him do what she wanted.
“You’re a bad influence on him…” Thena sighed.
“What did I do?” Pluto feigned offence to that.
“Music, art, movies.” stated Thena. “He’s anti-social because of you!”
“Yes… bla the movies and video gas…” Pluto rolled his eyes. “He’s just like that darling, he’s always been quiet around other people that are not family since he was a baby.”
“You think he’s going to be like this all the ti?”
Pluto shrugged. “Probably not, hope that little girl could sohow loosen him up.”
“I hope so too…” Thena murmured.
“Well, we need to thank George and Helen after this… mostly Helen though… George’s a bit tight concerning the girl…”
