Cryptid!Yuu and the Simply Average, Very Ordinary, Very Okay Day

[Step 1: Say ‘Good Morning’ to Grim.]

Today was like any other day. As the sun slowly rose upon the horizon and brought warm light inside people’s homes, a certain creature slowly woke up from sleep.

Said creature was Grim who grumbled something ineligible as his ears twitched lightly from the birdsongs he could here outside.

He groggily sat up and opened his eyes to look around the room yet found no one.

Hmm. Yuu was probably already downstairs. Grim shrugged and fell back to bed, intent on getting a few more minutes of sleep.

Well… at least he was planning to.

Until he met face to face with the Ramshackle Prefect who was plastered on the wall above the bed’s headboard like a lizard.

Yuu blinked slowly at Grim as if to say hello before scurrying away.

After a few moments, Grim’s tense form relaxed as he put a paw on his chest, calming his rapidly beating heart.

“Fnna…I can’t ever get used to that…”

[Step 2: Visit fish friends]

It was still early in the morning so Mostro Lounge was being prepared for the day.

The workers were still getting the place all cleaned up and Azul was looking at the paperwork in his hands as he made his way towards his office.

However, just as he was about to enter the room, he paused and backtracked a bit because when he saw a familiar prefect standing in front of the aquariums and looking intently at the fishes swimming by.

He wasn’t really surprised that Yuu somehow managed to find themselves inside Mostro Lounge so early like this despite the security.

He initially tried multiple times to keep Yuu out but they always managed to find ways to get inside so Azul just let Yuu be in the end. The most they did was look at the fish anyway… or the employees…

Though, he should probably make sure that the Ramshackle prefect wasn’t going to try and swim with the fishes again like last time.

The octomer approached Yuu and tried to get their attention.

“Good morning, Yuu. How did you get in here-“

“Fibsh!” Yuu suddenly exclaimed while whipping their head around to look at Azul as they pointed at the fishes.

Azul paused, the smile on their face straining and marred with confusion.

But before Azul could process what just happened, Yuu had already slipped away into the dark corner of Mostro Lounge and seemed to have disappeared as if Yuu had entered a portal.

Huh… when did the restaurant’s corner become that dark? Also…

“Did they just speak?” Azul asked nobody in particular.

Yuu spoke but rarely did so that Azul could have probably sold a recording of Yuu speaking for a high price with all the simps Yuu managed to acquire despite them being, well, them.

[Step 3: Visit sleepy friend & sleepy friend’s friends]

“Uh, Leona?”

“What?”

“Did you do anything to Yuu to make them mad?”

“Hah? What makes you say that?”

“They’re… They’re just staring at the corner. I don’t think they even blinked ever since I found them standing there earlier.”

Leona paused and raised his head momentarily to look at the corner where Yuu was indeed staring at them from.

He groaned and turned over, preparing to go back to sleep.

He nonchalantly waved his hand and calmly said, “They always do that. Just cover the herbivore with a blanket if you’re bothered by them or something. They’ll leave soon enough.”

Ruggie gave Leona a dry look, saying, “You still have class, don’t go back to sleep.”

He looked back at Yuu who by now have turned their attention at him.

The hyena beastman scratched his head and looked around before spotting the unused blanket on Leona’s bed and taking it. Leona wasn’t using it anyway.

The hyena beastman made his way towards the Ramshackle Prefect and gently set the blanket over Yuu’s figure and stepped back to admire his work.

Meanwhile, Yuu still made no movements even when they got fully covered by the blanket as if they were wearing one of those blanket ghost costumes on Halloween.

“Huh.” Ruggie hummed, poking Yuu who just shifted in place.

Just then, a familiar voice called out from outside. “Has anyone seen Yuu—Ah, there you are.” Jack said as he saw the blanket-covered individual. “Let’s head to class now. Don’t go running off again.”

[Step surprise: Oh no, class]

After being forcefully brought into class by Jack, Yuu had to now attend Alchemy class.

Jack believed that since Crewel was teaching, Yuu couldn’t slip away as easily as they usually did with the other classes.

Crewel was strict and had sharp senses so escaping his sight was going to be difficult. Jack would’ve been right in his conjecture were the circumstances normal.

Yuu, however, wasn’t in any way normal.

Because Yuu kept eating the ingredients handed to them, Crewel decided to punish them by making them stand on the corner.

Frankly, Crewel would’ve put them in detention but the last time it happened, Crewel had mysteriously lost a few of his designer brand fur robes and Yuu had oddly been coughing out hairballs the whole day.

He basically just didn’t want that headache from happening again.

Yuu slipped away silently when Crewel was busy scolding a student who got distracted and almost created a mini explosion in the classroom.

[Step 3 (again): Visit other sleepy friend]

Silver blinked awake to see Yuu standing proudly in front of him. Silver’s animal friends were surrounding them but most of the birds were on Yuu.

Silver chuckled drowsily.

Although he and Yuu never really talked much— Wait, did the Ramshackle Prefect even talk? He never heard them before—the other had this certain habit of pretending to be a statue and sitting near Silver whenever he found himself dozing off.

It was honestly kind of nic—

ZZZzzz…

Yeah, well, Silver fell asleep in the middle of his internal musings…

Though, a few minutes later he woke up again to see Yuu fully covered in plump and extremely fluffy birds.

The bad news, though, was that it seemed the birds were trying to abduct Yuu and it looked like they were succeeding when they managed to successfully lift the Ramshackle Prefect off the ground.

Yuu didn’t seem worried by this but Silver was.

Silver had to hold on to Yuu’s leg to prevent them from flying away and had to scold and tell his bird friends that no, Yuu was not a bird and that they shouldn’t take the resident cryptid away.

[Step 4: He h dHHGH!]

Yuu had arrived at a very busy Heartslabyul after almost getting abducted by birds.

It seemed that everyone was preparing for an Unbirthday Party in the afternoon.

“Oh! Prefect, what are you doing here?” Ace called out when they saw Yuu.

He stood beside them and looked in the direction of where Yuu was staring at, which was the small playpen holding the resident hedgehogs of Heartslabyul dorm.

The hedgehogs were just scurrying around in their little makeshift area, minding their own business and sometimes bumping into each other gently. It was a very adorable scene.

“They’re cute aren’t they? Too bad you can’t play with them for now since they’re needed for the croquet match later.”

“Who are you talking to, Ace?”

Deuce popped out from beside Ace and Ace realized that he had been talking to air for the past few minutes because Yuu had apparently disappeared for who knows how long now while he was talking.

The two thought that Yuu just went back to Ramshackle but they were proven wrong when someone shouted in alarm that all the hedgehogs had disappeared and sent everyone into a frenzy to look for the missing creatures.

Not a moment later, Cater reported that one of his clones had managed to capture an escaping Yuu who was holding an armful of the colorful hedgehogs.

Not only was Yuu scolded by Riddle for trying to steal the hedgehogs again soon after their attempted escapade but they were also hedgehog-less when they left Heartslabyul.

Truly a sad time for Yuu.

[Step fish: Visit fish friends (again!)]

Here comes lunch and Yuu was in Octavinelle once again with a plate of mushroom risotto being presented in front of them by a cheerful Floyd.

“Here Shrimpy, Shrimpy. Make sure you don’t leave any leftovers.” Floyd said as he continued to push more of the mushroom-based food creations that Jade had been making and experimenting on earlier.

Despite eating mushrooms almost everyday, Yuu never seems to get tired of eating it which was honestly a win-win situation for both Yuu and Floyd.

Yuu gets to eat free lunch, Floyd doesn’t have to eat mushrooms anymore, and he gets to squeeze Shrimpy all he wants while they’re there.

[Mmmm humger: Get afternoon snack]

Oddly enough, eating Jade’s cooking still hasn’t satiated Yuu’s hunger so they decided to visit the next person whose cooking they somehow like despite it being practically inedible to any other living beings.

That’s right, they headed straight over to Diasomnia where Lilia already seemed to have bene expecting them with a new creation of… whatever that thing was on the plate.

“Yuu, there you are!” Lilia greeted them with a smile. “I’ve made a new recipe I think would suit your taste. I think I added more salt than I would like but it probably shouldn’t taste any different from expected.”

The oversalted inedible dish obviously isn’t the problem here…

But with a tastebud of steel and an appetite of a starved whale, Yuu doesn’t hesitate to consume the cursed food.

Malleus, who was sitting right beside them, looked at them worriedly.

He leaned over to them and whispered while Lilia was distracted with something else.

“Child of Mystery, are you sure you can eat this? Are you capable of digesting it? If you can’t and need help, blink once.”

And of course, Yuu doesn’t blink the whole time.

[Step yes: Terrorize]

In all honesty, Idia shouldn’t have been playing a horror game in the dark if he wasn’t going to be prepared to see Yuu fall out of the ceiling and flop beside him like some demented fish, considering this wasn’t the first time Yuu decided to terrorize him.

Still, after the initial scare and with Ortho barging in Idia’s room, ready to blow up any enemies or intruders to kingdom come, the three of them somehow ended up chilling beside each other.

Idia continued to play the horror game.

Ortho provided curious and helpful commentaries and Yuu was acting as moral support.

Overall, oddly a pretty normal hanging out.

[STEP 7… maybe: Funny man!]

“My, your thought process is so fascinating, Trickster! Your brain must be positively brilliant!”

Let it be known that Yuu wasn’t doing anything particular at the very moment that would warrant a comment like that aside from trying to shove the ominous looking plant they randomly found on the forest floor that they were mostly sure wasn’t poisonous into their mouth after they left Ignihyde.

Yet they still somehow got accosted by the hunter with the bob cut who was singing praises at them trying to eat the unknown plant.

Yuu ended up tuning most of what Rook said out like they usually do with their loud green-haired friend.

Sure, escaping was an option but the last few times they did it, Rook kept tracking them down and continued praising them from where he left off.

Yuu even tried to play dead one time but that didn’t work so now they just settled for tuning Rook out.

Not that Rook noticed it. He seemed to be living in his own world as he continued the praises.

Thankfully, Yuu was saved when Vil arrived a few minutes later and allowed them to escape unnoticed.

[Step sand: Sand!]

Jamil looked unimpressed at Yuu who was hanging upside down beneath the magic carpet.

He wasn’t even surprised that they were somehow sticking from beneath it like some kind of lizard and instead was trying to gently swat Yuu off of it with a broom to no avail.

Kalim, who was sitting on the proper side of the magic carpet, wasn't being of any help and just laughed cheerfully.

“Firstly, Kalim, why? Secondly, Prefect, either sit down on the carpet properly or get down from it.”

Yuu blinked slowly before flopping down onto the floor area with the most cushion. Thankfully the fall wasn’t that high and the pillows Yuu landed on were extremely soft.

“Yuu was having fun.” Kalim said as if it was a completely valid reason as to why he and Yuu would go on a joyride with Yuu hanging from beneath the carpet when they were high up in the skies.

Knowing the two, they probably thought it was valid.

“You two are a menace.”

Yuu slowly blinked again at Jamil as if making an appeal to Scarabia’s Vice Dorm Leader’s words.

“No, denied. The two of you are still a menace.”

Sadly, Yuu was promptly shot down but at least Kalim wanted to throw a party for them to cheer them up instead.

Just another day of hanging out with Kalim and Jamil…

[Step 10: Ask allowance from the Crowfather]

After classes (which Yuu never really bothered to make an effort to appear to unless forced by their friend/s) end, Yuu goes to Crowley for some allowance because life is tough for a lizar– eh, student who came from another world with nothing to their name.

Of course, ‘asking’ for allowance actually just meant staring at Crowley for long periods of time without saying a single word until the crowman finally caved in and gave them money.

Now here Crowley was, pretending to look busy by shuffling around some papers while Yuu intently stared at him from the doorway and hoping Yuu would get bored and go away..

Crewel was there too, watching to see how long until Crowley cracked because he and the other staff members knew Crowley won’t be able to not give Yuu their allowance because last time the crow did, Yuu went into a hissy fit and caused a surprisingly significant amount of property damage.

So in the end, Crewel and the other staff members took bets on how long Crowley would hold out until he caved in.

Trein betted Crowley would cave in within 5 minutes, Vargas betted 1 minute, Crewel betted 10 minutes, and Sam betted 6 minutes.

Suffice to say, Trein won the bet and he and Yuu walked away a lot richer than before.

[Step end: Say goodnight to Grim]

Finally, it’s the end of the day and the students all go back to their dorms, tuckered out.

As Grim climbed up to the bed, ready to go to sleep, he looked around the dark room and called out, “Goodnight, Yuu.”

There was a moment of silence…

The closet across the bed rattled softly before its door was pushed open slightly and Yuu peeked through the gap.

Their eyes were somehow glowing in the dark but it’s Yuu so is it really surprising?

“Goodnight, Grim.” Yuu said back before they gently closed the closet door.

Grim stretched and then lay down on the bed, seemingly used to Yuu’s behavior.

Sometimes they slept hanging from the ceiling, sometimes under the bed, and sometimes inside the closet. Just Yuu being Yuu.

Overall, Yuu had pretty much a simply average, very ordinary, and very okay day.
