I wasn't sure what I was going for with this... no sex here as a heads up.
>It was a Monday evening as you pulled into the driveway of your small house in the suburbs. Work had been difficult.
>With a sigh, you grabbed the grocery bag full of KD packages and a box of Timbits - all of these things you had bought at Kronii's request - and entered your home.
>The couch was empty today. An unfinished bag of blueberries lay on the table in front of it, and some were even strewn about on the couch itself.
>You ventured to the kitchen to sort out your groceries. The first thing you noticed was a small stack of unwashed plates and utensils in the sink.
>Then you saw the uncovered leftovers sitting on the kitchen counter.
>You didn't want to call out for Kronii. This was her usual streaming time after all, and you didn't want to interrupt.
>Frustrated, you cleaned everything - the blueberries on the couch, the unwashed dishes, the leftovers. You stepped outside to take out the trash and get some air.
>When you returned, you found Kronii in the kitchen happily eating some Timbits.
>So she hadn't been streaming after all. Or doing much of anything, really.
>At this point, you were beyond irritated as she finally noticed your presence.
>"Kroniich-"
>You stormed past her wordlessly to your room. Exhausted, you fell into the comfort of your bed and quickly fell asleep.
>Your alarm woke you from your peaceful slumber. The side of the bed next to you was empty.
>Kronii had probably fallen asleep in her streaming room again.
>You washed up and made your way to the kitchen. At the dining table in front of you was a fresh plate of pancakes and a sloppily written note on the side.
>"How about we go out for dinner together after you finish work?"
>You smiled. The Warden of Time wasn't perfect. But she was perfect enough for you.
