Chapter Text
I’m hungry. Said Night Ninja’s inner monologue. I want food.
Night Ninja stayed on their bed.
Night Ninja and the ninjalinos lived on the outskirts of Tarabiscoville in an old, abandoned warehouse. Despite the architecture, the ninjas were able to make a somewhat comfortable living environment, complete with a kitchen.
However, all of the ninjalinos would be asleep at this time. Then again, Night Ninja was the best ninja, so they could simply soundlessly walk to the kitchen and back.
Satisfied by their plan, Night Ninja walked out of their bedroom and slowly made their way to the makeshift kitchen.
When they arrived, they was surprised to see one of the ninjalinos sipping a cup of warm milk.
“Marvin?”
The ninjalinos looked up at Night Ninja. “Sorry…”
Night Ninja frowned. “Don't apologise. I just want to know why you're still awake.” They would never let the PJ pests know this, but Night Ninja cared deeply for their ninjalinos.
Marvin said that embarrassed that he had been defeated so easily by the PJ’s. He said it wasn't up to his usual standards.
“Marvin, we all have our bad days. If everyone was always acting to the best of their abilities, the world would be a very different place.”
Marvin nodded, comforted by his brother figures words.
“Why are you up?” Marvin asked.
Night Ninja was surprised by the turning of tables.
“I was just hungry.” They replied nonchalantly.
Marvin raised his eyebrows and whispered.
“WHA-? I’M NOT IN A “SECRET RELATIONSHIP" WITH CATBOY!” Night Ninja was taken aback by the statement. “AND I’M NOT “SCARED OF THE OTHERS FINDING OUT”! THERE IS NOTHING TO FIND OUT!”
They realised they might have woken some of the ninjalinos. “Just- why?”
Marvin looked weirdly pleased to explain every single detail as to why he thought them and Catboy were dating.
Night Ninja blushed as Marvin yapped on and on, disappointed that they couldn't hide behind their mask. Was I that obvious? They thought to themselves.
“See! I knew you have a crush on him!” Marvin exclaimed when he took note of Night Ninja’s red cheeks.
“No I- ok mayyyyybe I do. But that doesn't mean he likes me back!”
“You never know unless you ask him. You can just do stuff to see if he reacts or not, and make a move if you think he likes you back.”
“I mean, it's not a bad plan, but why do you know about this stuff?” Night Ninja asked.
Marvin just smiled.
