Steven moved around in the mirror as Marc continued to walk around as if the big scary bird wasn't just in the room. If Marc would listen Steven would have pointed out that Khonshu was in their living room. Marc just didn't say anything when Steven spoke so he decided to save his voice. Marc suddenly grabbed a brush from out of the bathroom and when he came out Khonshu was standing in front of him.
Steven couldn't quite here what either of them we're saying because of how quiet they were being. The conversation was short and Khonshu lead Marc back into the living room where he sat down on the couch. Marc sat on his knees and faced his back towards Khonshu. Steven was quite honestly confused as he tried to figure out what was going on.
It took a second for Steven to process the fact that Khonshu had the brush in his hand. 'why does Khonshu have the brush in his hand?' Steven asked himself as he furrowed his brows.
Khonshu tilted his head then lifted the brush up to slowly brush Marc's hair. Steven was even more confused now because why would a god waste his time brushing someone's hair? Was that even worth his time? Was it because Marc was his avatar?
Then Khonshu started to hum, it was a sweet sounding lullaby. Steven paused his whole body freezing up as his brain tried to work out what he was seeing.
This was something almost private, something Steven shouldn't even be seeing right now. Steven bit his lip and froze again when it hit him like a freight train: Khonshu and Marc were together.
Suddenly everything up to that point made so much more sense. The way Khonshu and Marc interacted, talked, held each other. Steven sat down on the floor and stared wied eyed at the well. . couple.
Steven jumped when a hand landed on his shoulder. He quickly recovered seeing as the only other person that could have been was Jake. Jake gave him a big bright grin as he sat down next to him.
"Finally put two and two together?" Jake said as he gave Steven a big grin. Steven nodded his head cheekily.
"Uhh yeah?" Steven said awkwardly. Jake shook his head as he took a second to stare at Marc and Khonshu. After a bit Jake sighed and turned back to face Steven.
"You'll get used to it." Jake said as the room slowly became dark.
"you'll get used to it."
