[Action for Tony]
Hajime was a little embarrassed that his mom had called Tony--how did she even get that number?--to help move the new fridge into the restaurant's kitchen. He could probably have lifted the thing by himself if it weren't for the thing's sheer bulk, and now that his family knew what he was, he wouldn't have to hide it. But no, his mom had called up Tony for a little help, promising him a free lunch for his trouble.
At least once it was over, he and Hajime could get down to the very serious business of doppelganger hunting. Hajime was itching to try out the new cards that had been all but burning a hole in his pocket.

[Hajime's doppelganger is upset. The thing about being a giant bug disguised as a human is that once you go bug, you can't go back to being a human without the one playing card the real Hajime has, and the doppelganger's far too scared of the real deal to hazard trying to steal it. So have a giant bug somewhere outside the castle, slumped on a bench in an exaggerated, swooning position of woe. He's also managed to find an eye-searing Hawaiian print shirt that fits a giant bug, even if there are spikes poking through it at odd angles. At least he's left a convenient visual cue that this is not the real Hajime.]
So what are you supposed to do if you can't really go out in public without making people scream? I'm so bored.
[He's whining. There is so much whining. Un-Hajime-like levels of whining. Whining that would put a five year old child to shame. Whining that just might draw the real thing to kick his ass again.]
And I'm hideous.
[He's also available to bother in person for anyone near the castle, because it's not that hard to figure out where he's theatrically sprawled out.]

The number hadn't necessarily been for the lifting of heavy things, but Tony's not against helping for the sake of helping. And the offer of a free lunch is always a great way to sweeten the deal. Besides he liked Hajime's folks, they were awesome and admittedly he really enjoyed, and even craved, being around some down to earth people for a change. He loves his unique family, but sometimes it's nice just to remember what it's like with people who don't have superpowers or superbrains. That, and he has a soft spot for the motherly types, especially motherly types that want to feed him.
Not long after the call he showed up and meandered his way around back to help with the fridge lifting. Between the two of them it shouldn't be a problem? Weight wasn't an issue anymore, it was just bulk. If you couldn't get your arms around it you really couldn't lift it, no matter how strong you were.
"Hey, sorry I'm. Weren't any busses going where I needed to."
[Action]
"Oh, hey, Tony!" And there was Hajime's sister, Mitsuko. She's very happy to see Tony, even if Hajime hasn't quite picked up on that yet. Probably for the best.
[Action] IN WHICH ENTIRE WORDS ARE IMPLIED wow
What's not to like? "Hey Mitsuko, what's up? Are you helping with the grand fridge moving adventure too?" Obviously it's an adventure now because why not? Please do not eat him, Hajime, Tony is harmless.
[Action] IT'S OKAY THAT HAPPENS
It was for the best that Hajime had his back turned to Tony and Mitsuko at that smile, else he might have figured it out then and there. "Come on, fridge is this way."
"Tony's here?" Hajime's mom poked her head out there. "Hey, Tony. Thanks for coming--this shouldn't take long!"
[Action] hurpa durpa doo~
Because wrestling with large unwieldy objects and doors at the same time is really nearly impossible. At the very least it'd end with a broken door and no one wants to deal with that. And yes, it is, last thing Tony needs is a furious and protective bugman on his case. Especially when he's going to go out and help him with doppelganger hunting.
One more charming smile Mitsuko's way before he turns to follow Hajime. And of course, Hajime's mother also gets a charming smile because he's always happy to see her. Weakness for moms it's a thing. "No problem, always happy to help. How big is this thing anyway?"
[Action]
Watch that smile, Tony, it's a lethal weapon. She's very taken with Tony, and she gives him an equally charming one in return.
[Action]
It really is, of course he doesn't completely realize just how taken because he's kind of dense like that. Effortlessly disarmed by one charming smile from Mitsuko. Ten points to her.

[He's still whining dramatically, even if he's quite pleased to have an audience for said whining.]
It's so boring around here, and now I can't do anything.

[Self-preservation trumps the need to not be a bug, apparently.]
And I don't know what kind of bug I am, either. Some kind of roach. Maybe a water beetle.

[It still comes out in a whine.]
But what good is being strong enough to tear a car apart if no one thinks you're hot?

You can't do that when you're a bug!

Oh. I dunno. If you wanna have some beers and hang out, we could do that.
