[For the following weeks, Poseidon keeps his promise to Megami and visits him every day, or at least as often as his new abilities will allow. It turned out that while it didn't take a lot of energy to keep up, it was unpredictable and something he still hadn't entirely mastered tapping into. Three days into using them, and he'd spent an hour trapped on the beach of Megami's island as a human sized merperson, trying to figure out how to give himself legs again on top of being small. But things worked themselves out even with the difficulty, and life started to slowly go back to normal.
Now that Choromatsu was safe at home, he and the rest of his brothers started falling back into their usual routines. They had been very upset at first to be told that they couldn't go see Megami (Choromatsu more confused than anything), but after a week Poseidon allowed them to visit for the first time. Since Megami was still unable to leave his lake, Poseidon had carried each of his sons to the lake, one by one, until they could all visit for as long as they could stand the clear water of the lake. Poseidon, meanwhile, would nap in the corner of said lake after spending all of his energy playing taxi.
As another week passed and Megami found his strength restored, the children could see him at the edge of the shore and spend a lot more time than before, even though Poseidon still kept their strict nighttime curfew in check. Of course, that didn't mean they always listened...half the time they'd sneak out to see him anyway, or bring him presents, or something similar. Megami always told Poseidon about it though, so it was no secret.
But today, about a month later, Poseidon had wanted to see Megami on his own without his songs hanging off of him, so he left the reef for the island early while all the boys were still asleep...]
