Kentas panted, sweat trickling down his skin. Just... Just a little longer. He was sure he could do it!

He was able to hold onto his transformation for a little longer before he let go, slumping as he sucked in as much air as he could, swaying but not collapsing. That was good. He'd -

Kentas jerked his head up at a rustle, tensing. He saw silver hair amongst the trees first and he relaxed, grinning at M-21 as he stepped out into the moonlight.

"Have you been up this entire time practicing your transformation?" M-21 asked, looking him over.

"Mm!" He swiped a hand over his brow, shaking off the excess sweat. He hadn't been doing it for that long, but he'd hit his original record for holding his transformation.

A pained look passed over M-21's face, making Kentas blink.

"How come you've only just started practising now?"

"Oh, right." Kentas scratched a sideburn. It had been over a week since he'd been brought to M-21's house. "I was making sure I was fully recovered before training again." It would be worse for him in the long run if he overdid training while he was still recovering.

"I'm going to have to drag you to bed as well," M-21 said with a sigh.

"Huh?" Kentas shook his head. "I'm fine; I don't need as much sleep as humans."

M-21 just gave him a dry look. "You said you were fine getting stronger your own way, no matter how long it took?"

"Yeah."

"Then skipping a couple of hours to sleep isn't going to kill you."

That was true...

M-21 crossed his arms, his lips pursed. "You're already wavering on your feet, and if you don't come now, I'm carrying you back."

Was...he acting like Tao right now...?

M-21's expression said he was, and Kentas didn't doubt M-21 would do as he said, especially since he'd already seen M-21 already do that with Tao.

"I'm coming," he said, walking over. He didn't stumble, but from the way his muscles were trembling, he was due for a rest.

So I realised after 421 that actually, Kentas would probably be another person who the others have to badger to bed.
