Work Text:
Coinmonke leaned against the counter, staring into the reflection in his window, he, with his 'big and expensive' house, did not have a mirror. Which unfortunately, made this whole putting on makeup thing extremely hard.
As he put on the makeup, his precious time was abruptly cut short as a loud knock cut through the air.
Coinmonke, getting over his initial startle, turned annoyed. Coinmonke pushed his sunglasses back on and adjusted his fur to hide the makeup, curse him and his fragile masculinity. As he head towards his door to go and open it, he thought of who would be behind it. Hopefully Luigi, not Reddoons. God, that'd suck.
Coinmonke sighed, his hands turning the knob of his newly renovated door.
There, he was met with Parrot.
"What are you doing here?" Coinmonke asked, biting back any hint of annoyance. He wasn't sure what type of relationship he and Parrot had, like most of his, it was complicated. He hated the other, found him irritating at most times, but he was different from the others... In some way.
Parrot smiled, the one he always did when he was snooping in places he shouldn't. Leaving Coinmonke instantly irritated.
"I'm just here to hand in quota early,"
"Early?" Coinmonke's earlier irritation immediately passed, followed by a hint of content.
"Yeah," Parrot replied nonchalantly.
"Well? Hand it over then,"
Parrot handed Coinmonke a few ores, ones that Coinmonke had already filtered out as useless. He still took them regardless, sending Parrot off as he stored the ores away.
He pushed his sunglasses up, brushing his fur out of his face so he could continue applying makeup. As he settled back into his house, he began to work.
His face was mostly skin, there was a small crest of fur where he couldn't apply the makeup to, at his forehead and also protruding outwards from his cheek.
It took about 30 more minutes after the interruption, all he had done is replicate a person he had seen before. They had a pure white face with black and blue hair covering their eyes, Coinmonke couldn't remember all the details but he had thought he nailed the face down to a T.
He didn't know why he did this, actually, he did, boredom. His job required him one thing, make money. Of course, a lot of extra steps. But that was the one thing he HAD to do.
But when the miners were out actually mining, what was he to do? Well, usually he spent his time planning with Reddoons, or the Invisible Mafia, or just bouncing a YoYo against the wall, but he also had his hobbies.
For one, he liked collecting. Whatever he could while having to spend most of his time in the most barren place he could imagine.
He also liked thinking. Using his imagination to come up with different insults whenever a miner failed at a task, or if R4trick brought him some odd thing at quota check that he was never sure where it even came from.
Yeah, 'hobbies'.
Coinmonke stood up, grabbing a makeup wipe and washing the makeup away. As he went to throw it away he noticed a familiar bird staring at him from a distance, a yellow object in his hand. He pulled open his window
"GET BACK TO WORK!" He yelled out to the parrot, to which the other responded by sneaking off somewhere else. Good riddance.
Coinmonke threw the wipe away.

Parrot could only feel relief that Coinmonke hadn't noticed him Dean or Wifies being suspicious later, apparently he had his own things to be doing then watch the miners.
But what was he doing trying to look suspiciously close to Eggchan???
One more thing that Parrot will never know about the warden.
