(Some text will be copied from my Budget Cuts episode chapter from Twin children of the superhero, aka my Henry x Reader book but I'm gonna only copy the part where they discuss Budget cuts and the scene where Charlotte has a stomach ache from eating bad meat. It's not plagiarism because I wrote that book too. Also this will be kinda short.)

Your POV 

"Okay let's get started," Ray says.

I'm sitting on the couch, laying my head in Jaspers lap while he plays with my hair.

"Today in the man cave, we're gonna talk about 'Budget Cuts'," Ray explains.

"Budget cuts?" I question.

"What does it mean?" Ray asks us, "Charlotte?"

"That our budgets been cut?" She asks.

"Yes, and since the city of Swellview isn't going to give us enough money to fight crime anymore, we're gonna need to make some changes around here,"

"Ooh! Show them what you made me do to the snack machine!" Schwoz says.

"I was just about to talk about that!" Ray  snaps.

"The auto-snacker is no longer free as I will now demonstrate," Ray says, "tuna pot pie,"

"Tuna pot pie $15.00"

"$15?!" I exclaim.

"For a tuna pot pie?!" Jasper adds.

"Dude!" Henry exclaims.

"Well tough tuna!" Ray exclaims, "we don't have enough money for employees to get free food anymore!"

Jasper plays with my hair and I smile at him.

"Now next, going to the bathroom here, will no longer be free for employees," Ray  says.

"What?!" I exclaim.

"You're going to make us pay to pee?!" Charlotte exclaims.

"No way!" Henry exclaims.

"Yeah! Stuff like water, toilet paper, and cheese cost money," Dad says.

"Who eats cheese in the bathroom?" 

"Okay, we're trying to save money so why don't we stop Schwoz from using our crime fighting budget on some crazy weird stuff for himself," Charlotte exclaims.

"Yeah Schwoz! You're always using the company credit card for your personal stuff," Henry adds.

"No I do not do that!" Schwoz says and I roll my eyes.

"Oh really?" I put my hands on my hips and walk to Charlotte.

"Now why don't I read off some of the things you've spent our money on last month," Charlotte says, grabbing Rays  tablet.

"Noo!" Schwoz whines.

"Last month! Schwoz charged $350 for a gym membership to a place called 'fatness to fitness'," Charlotte says.

"I need it so I can get big muscles," Schwoz says.

Charlotte and I roll our eyes. Jasper puts his arms around my waist.

"And how does belonging to a gym help us fight crime?" Henry asks and I nod.

"What if you or Ray get captured? I might have to jump in, and do some action," Schwoz says.

"Yeah and how many times have you been to this 'gym'?" Dad asks.

I have levitation and indestructibility but I don't fight crime because it's too risky.
