No fair! You can't pull big sister rights all the time!
Well there's no rule for the opposite either! So there! I'm making a stand for little brothers everywhere!
If that's the case, then no bellyachin when I give you noggies.
I feel like you'd keep the noogies coming no matter what I picked!
But hey, I still have my right as a little brother to be annoying!
But hey, I still have my right as a little brother to be annoying!
Then I really have to pick up the slack! It's my duty. I'll have you calling out my name with frustration one of these days!
Alright then! Let's see what big of a horse's ass you can be, Sugar.
And I mean that in a lovin way.
And I mean that in a lovin way.
I'm sure you do! I have been known to horse around. Also in a loving way!
I never do! Get ready Sister, because I'm going to bring my A-game!
[Despite all the bad things that happened right before the reset, Scott can genuinely say that he's also relieved. He woke up back in bed with all his memories intact (at least he thinks so) and the glitching seemed to have stop in the world. It's something to possibly celebrate, like it felt like they've accomplished the mission, but it's hard to be super optimistic when he remembers everything that happened.
He almost wants to sleep some more, close his eyes against everything for just a bit longer, but he needs to get up. He should get up. After all, he wants to check on his friends, all the people that he cares about. At least his roommates is a good start for that, right? And they'rehopefully close by.
With that thought, he makes his way out of his room and-- hey, is that Kurt? Scott raises a hand up in an automatic greeting, a small smile in place.]
Hey man.

Hey man.
[You wake up in a courtroom. You’re not really sure how you got here, just that you’re here. There’s Jerry, sitting at the judges box. For some he might be new, and others he might be familiar or semi-familiar. He scrutinizes you, and then motions to the jury box. There’s a plaque that’s sitting on the outside that says “Council”, but there’s no one sitting there. Everything looks clean and maintained, but there’s no one in the courtroom but you and Jerry.
Weird.]
You are charged with matricide.
[There’s something about his expression that makes you think that he might’ve already made up his mind…]
The Council has found you Guilty of this crime. In order to repent and further your rehabilitation, you have been charged to seek out criminal wrongdoings amongst your friends and companions. Choose an ally and escort them to the courthouse to face trial. If there is no action taken, there will be consequences.
[You wake up back in your bed. You remember everything – Jerry, the jury box, the words he spoke to you. Maybe you remember the words he spoke more vividly than anything else.
However you decide to proceed… there will be consequences.]
[ooc: you have until November 15th to submit your Sentencing HERE. Even if your character doesn’t proceed with the Sentencing, you must comment on the NPC inbox for your penalty.
Also, there are effects for ignoring this Sentencing. It may feel subtle during the first week, but afterwards Kurt may find more and more parts of his body turning to stone the more it gets ignored. If you have any questions about Sentencing, please direct it to the Mod Contact post.]

[Kurt might be done with every kind of glitch, but instead he feels like he has a persistent itch. It feels like every little thing is getting on his nerves, including his toast being lightly charred. Even Scott's normally comforting presence feels like it's cutting off his train of thought, so Kurt responds without looking directly at him, giving a gruff-]
Yo.
Yo.
[Not exactly the reaction he expected.
Scott finds himself blinking slowly behind his glasses as the remaining remnants of those lethargic feelings fade away. Okay, something is clearly going on if even Kurt is acting grumpy. Like sure Kurt has bad days and maybe his friend is still reeling from everything that just happened, but usually he's a little more upbeat than this. Well, that's really only more reason for him to check on his friend.
He starts walking closer with a familiar little worried frown on him.]
What's up?? Bad morning? [The implication of 'do you want to talk about it' rising into the air.]

[And Kurt just feels a renewed sense of frustration. He lowers his head and shakes it.]
What's with all the questions, man? Can you get off my back? I'm just - trying to wake up here, but nothing's working right! [He waves the charred toast around.] And who got OJ with so much pulp in it anyway??

[Wow, okay.]
Dude, you're the one that got that OJ! [That really isn't the point-- Scott's arms come up to cross over his chest.] Never mind, just. What the hell?? If something crawled up your ass and died, just say it.
[...Maybe not the best way he could've handled this, but Scott can't stop himself from being a little defensive.]

[Kurt sneers at him.]
No way, man! You're the one who's getting all up in my grill! The fuzzy man's just trying to have a peaceful morning - [he pinches his brow, in a fit of irritation.] - and you're totally just harshing my vibe, man!

I only asked you one thing! Geez, sorry for being worried!
[He's still really annoyed, maybe even slightly upset, and Scott's frown twists into one of concern, although he doesn't want to be too open about it. Not when they're arguing like this.] Not like I ruined your toast this morning. That's all on you.

N-no! I...
[Now he has both hands on his head and lowers it, while gritting his teeth.]
...I don't even know what's bothering me, man!!

...I don't even know what's bothering me, man!!
[The fact that Kurt seems to be in actual pain almost instantaneously wipes the irritation that's been building in his chest. Okay, definitely not just morning crabbiness, or pissy about burnt toast or whatever crap. Something else is going on. Scott's walking closer to Kurt now, not bothering to hide his concern as he reaches for his shoulder.
Is this some after effect from the reset...? Shit, he should've paid more attention--]
Kurt, what's wrong-- what's happening? [Right, maybe less questions.] Come on, let's get you to the couch.

[Kurt looks back up towards Scott with a confused frown, as Scott's hand reaches his shoulder. But then he tries to shove Scott back.]
Back off dude!!
[Except the he almost immediately seems remorseful, ducking his head back down again.]
I'm sorry. I didn't... mean to.

[He's pushed back a couple of steps and Scott doesn't try getting closer again, but he's still not relenting on helping Kurt. He looks at him with that same frown, the one that's truly worried about him.]
It's fine.
[He cuts quickly through any apologies, no longer really caring about that sort of thing. Yeah, it hurt a little to pushed back, but this isn't Kurt. Not normally. And he wants to get to the bottom of it.] You need to rest. Did you want me to grab anyone? Anything?
[Scott wants to ask how long he's been feeling like this, but he figures that it might be best to try and relieve the symptoms?]

[He grips his head while trying to make sense of it. He can still feel a strong sense of agitation, and he doesn't know the source.]
I- I don't know! Something calming, I guess? Anything that I- that I can't get mad at?

[Something calming...? Okay, think Summers. Nothing big comes to mind, but he can't just stand here and watch Kurt clearly struggle with something, even if doesn't want him touching him.]
Okay Kurt, just lie down. We'll start with that. [...] And just wrap yourself in a blanket or something. I'll grab you breakfast in the mean time. Maybe hot chocolate? I know it's morning, but who cares, right?
