The day went by pretty quickly, after breakfast they decided to explore a bit. Went to the End City and even saw Ranboo, of course... They didn't have the chance to hang out because a certain someone just so conveniently felt tired all of a sudden, YN can sense that Techno might... Just might be trying to pry her and Ranboo away, although... She doesn't wanna assume that since there's so valid reason as to why Techno would do that

This was it, the day of Ranboo's birthday. The castle was very busy that day. Maids running around, helping guests that arrived early, preparing the ballroom. Chefs cooking, gardeners making sure that every plant and such are neat and tidy, basically just a very busy day and as usual... YN woke up late

YN got herself ready for the day, just wearing her casual clothes, deciding that since the party won't start till much later this evening, why not help out since it's only 12 pm

YN left her room, closing the door shut, eyes lingered upon the pinkette's room for a couple of seconds before deciding that maybe Techno is busy or is, well... Still asleep

She got to the hallways and tried asking around if they needed help, it took a while but after a few minutes she found someone that was in need of help, and it was the perfect task for her as well

The curtains need to be changed and it was tiring to climb up and down ladders, so YN out her wings to good use to help the already tired Maids in their jobs, the maids were very grateful for this. It took an hour to get everything removed, but it's done

She wipes off the sweats that had formed on her forehead and shook her wings, an attempt to shake off the soreness in them

"YN? If you don't mind, there's something else we'd appreciate your help on" the least shy maid said, YN smiled "Sure! I'll be glad to help out" she said, the maid leads her outside, and well... It was not a task that she was expecting, carrying crates... Yay... Woo... Notice the sarcasm and like of life? Yeah. Nonetheless, she put her serious game face on and accepted the task at hand

5 minutes in and she still can't lift the crate, it's only ONE crate! Why is this so damn heavy?! What even is inside this stupid box!

She groaned and tried pushing, pulling, and even managed to fall down on her bottoms. at this rate she had already developed strong passionate hate towards this crate, she tried the other crates and they're no better either

Her whining and head-scratching were answered by the familiar voice of her... Possible favorite person "Need help?" He asked "No" she said, stubborn as she crossed her arms, facing the amused Pinkette "Ah, I see" He said, he went to one of the low stairs and sat down, watching YN with a delighted, devilish smile "What are you doing?" She asked "Oh, just here... Sitting... Waiting for you to finally break and ask me for help" He said, followed by a pitchy laugh. He already saw the young girl's sad attempts through the window from the second floor earlier, he knows she can't do it

Great... Now YN is in bigger trouble, YN furrowed her eyebrows and rubbed her palms together, she did a stretch first and tried pulling the crate again, and after a solid 5 minutes of the crate not moving, she heard a cackle from behind him "Shut up!" She yelled at the Pinkette, which only made him laugh more

She was taken by surprise when Techno came up behind her "Okay, fine! I can't lift it, but if you're so great then YOU try it" she challenged, if Techno is going to judge her, she will judge him back

Techno shrugged, a smile playing on his lips, he folded his sleeves up and grabbed onto one of the crates, he pulled it up and managed to lift it up

Okay! That's not supposed to happen!

Techno looked at YN, a teasing smirk on his face. Techno decided, this wasn't enough. He placed the crate he was holding on to, on top of another crate and lifted it up, carrying two "Alright, princess. Where do you want me to bring these?" He teased, laughing a bit "For the last time, I'm not a princess, ugh... But the maid said, just bring it to the kitchen" YN said, she leads Techno to the kitchen and they were met by the people who were waiting for it, The main chef was about to scold YN for being slow; but he looked behind the smiling YN only to find the Pinkette unleashing kill aura, a silent message that says 'If you offend or hurt that woman in any way, shape, or form, I will kill you

It took them a couple more minutes, but after a while they- well... Techno, was able to bring all the crates to where they belong. The kitchen, basement, etc.

"Phew! That was a lot of work" YN said, Techno's eyes widen in disbelief "HEH? Hard work? I did all of the carrying" he said, YN giggled, okay. Maybe he does have a point, buuut~ "Nah, I say... I did a lot of hard work as well" YN said, wiping off her non-existent sweat "Unbelievable" Techno said, which made YN laugh, he smiled at that.

"Oh! It's already 3 PM! We should go condition ourselves before the whole party thing happens" YN said, Techno nodded "Yeah... I could use a shower and a nap" He said, YN nodded "Agreed" She said

The two walked back up to their room, talking about the most random things on their way "...And that's how I met Phil" Techno finished off the story of how he met and saved Phil in the nether from a baby Zoglin, apparently this man has a lot of bad experience with baby mobs "Not gonna lie, I was expecting a much more... Heroic, story" YN said, they laughed it off
