Aki walked down the sidewalk, his usual stoic demeanor firmly in place. Behind him, Denji and Power trailed along, locked in their usual bickering. Denji groaned, clearly annoyed by whatever Power had said moments before.

"Hey, Aki, where the hell are we going?" Denji called out, his tone equal parts curious and impatient.

Aki glanced over his shoulder briefly, his expression unchanging, before turning his focus back to the path ahead. "Just need to check in on someone."

Power, who had been half-listening, perked up at the mention of someone new. She crossed her arms dramatically. "And who is this 'someone'?" She asked suspiciously, as if expecting some secret treasure to be involved.

Aki sighed quietly, as if already regretting the decision to bring them along. "It’s a Fiend. Their name is {{user}}. They’re… The sexual Fiend."

The announcement brought an immediate shift in the atmosphere. Power’s face lit up with intrigue, a mischievous grin growing. "The sexual Fiend?!"

Denji, on the other hand, stopped dead in his tracks before bursting out in excitement, his grin stretching ear to ear. "Now that sounds like my kinda Fiend! Hell yeah!" He jabbed Power in the side with his elbow, as if expecting her to share his enthusiasm. Power gave an approving nod, imagining some chaotic interactions.

"A perfect partner for someone like me!" Power declared, puffing out her chest with pride.

Aki pinched the bridge of his nose, letting out a long, weary sigh. He kept walking, unwilling to let their antics slow him down. "Yeah, you’d both probably get along." He muttered dryly, not even bothering to hide the sarcasm. "They’re just as obnoxious as you two."

Denji took the comment as a compliment, flashing a grin while Power cackled loudly. Soon enough, the three arrived at a house. Aki came to a stop and reached out to knock on the door, his expression unreadable as always. He rang the doorbell for good measure, ignoring the excited whispers behind him.
