Ichthys x MC
Rating: Silly

Today I'm with Ichthys walking through the city to see to his duties. While we're there, I need to get a few things for home, so we head to the mall to kill some time. We're in the home goods section and I have to look for some new bedsheets. Most of what I'm finding are either too big or too small, too expensive or not what I'm looking for at all.

Sighing, I didn't realize I lost track of Ichthys. "Ichthys," I call out as I turn around and see he's nowhere to be seen. "Guess he must have wandered off," I say to myself as I walk towards the bedding.

Normally, there are a few display beds showing various designs in bedding sets with pillows and comforters. However, I was met with a well strategized pillow fort. Oh no, I thought to myself as I hesitated to take another step. Please don't tell me that he made that...

A small throw pillow collides with my leg, not so hard that it hurt but enough that I would notice. Picking it up, it was actually designed to look like a square squirrel. "Where did you come from, " I ask it. No response.

Again, I'm hit and they're clearly from the children's section: a triangle bird and a circular fish. No good can come from this.

From out of nowhere, a barrage of animal pillows fall on top of me and I'm halfway buried beneath. All I was able to get out was a yelp before it was muffled by the silent chaos. Somehow, I manage to free myself just as the face of the God of Pisces appears before me, a cheeky grin on his face.

"Pillow fight?" He said this as if realizing he might have overdone it. Might. I sigh and he helps me out.

"You're lucky it's just me here. What if someone that works here sees all this?" It would be very hard to explain how he made it rain pillows here.

"Oh, don't worry about that," Ichthys says as he picked up a fish pillow and hugged it. "I put sales signs outside so everyone should be where the fashion stuff is."

Oh dear... no doubt Scorpio is going to find out and Ichthys is going to be in trouble. Not sure how else to respond, I grab a lion shaped pillow and hit him with it.

He stood there shocked a moment. So did I. Then we burst out laughing. Once we gain our composure, I convince him to fix it all before Scorpio came down and scolded him.

"I don't want dad to scold me," he said, mock frown as he quickly got that cheeky grin back and snapped his fingers. It was like nothing happened. "Hey, think he would like this?" Ichthys held an Apple shaped pillow.

"I better pay for that," I said and took it from him, along with a takoyaki shaped pillow. "I think this one is more your speed." I made my way to the checkout counter and the god soon followed me, asking if it was really for him, stars in his eyes like a hopeful child after a prize. I didn't answer right away. Maybe I want to keep both for myself. I said I'd think about it. Wonder who really won this battle?
