Coincidences

"Father, what should I order for our young guest?" Thomas asked.

Oooo, Thomas is going to get me something! Although I'm not young...

But either way, good protagonist!

"Nothing, absolutely nothing!" Aaron objected.

Villain's are so predictable.

"Hmmm..." Thomas's father glanced in my direction before replying. "Fish and milk?"

...

That...

I...

*Sigh*

The stereotypes are hurting my brain. Beast Men can eat anything that is edible like you too, you know?!

And what's up with the fish?! I hate fish!

I want some chicken soup...

"Alright." Thomas nodded before placing down his menu.

He then turned to face me, his hazelnut eyes studying my figure.

"He doesn't seem to have a collar or tag on him, Father. Should we name him for the moment?"

"Like what?"

"Leech." Aaron rudely suggested.

"I was thinking along the lines of Marionette."

Marionette? Why Marionette?!

"Marionette?" Thomas's father voiced my concerns.

"You know, because he's all black in color and he's lost. The one show Marionette was popular for, before he was cast away, was his role in being a lost puppet in one of the plays The Stage sometimes experimented with."

"Those fourth wall breaking plays? I listened to the myth, it sucked." Aaron shook his head. "I was honestly expecting a great show considering it represents the son of a God."

"They are, in the end, Myths, Pip." Thomas explained, using Aaron's nickname.

Aaron visibly cringed when he heard the nickname. "Thomas, what did I tell you about using that name in front of strangers?!"

"He's just a kitten, it's not like he can tell anyone." Thomas justified himself.

Wow, thanks for the vote of confidence, Thomas.

"But when he's older, he can!"

"Like he would remember something that insignificant." Their father sighed. "I think we should name him something else instead. How about Calamitis? Although he's the son of an Evil god, he represents strength and courage for young men and women."

NO!

I AM NOT GOING BY THE NAME OF CALAMITIS!!!

Do you want me to be found by the Gods?!

Besides, what the hell are the names they are using?!

No normal human being would name a Beast Man after a God or their descendants!

(But then again, this is the Protagonist's family we're talking about...)

But still!

This has the System written all over it!

I can tell!

What else can explain the coincidences that are hitting me in the face, one after another?!

Plot?

Yeah... you do have a point...

Luckily this isn't a light novel or anything. Otherwise it'd be pretty boring.

Heh.
