3rd kick: voice/action for house 11

[kickingcatcher]

[When Crys arrives back at the house late at night, she pretty much looks like a wreck. She just looks plain exhausted, and her left arm is in a sling. The rest of her is spotted with a few bruises and small scrapes, but nothing too horrible aside from her arm. As she walks up to the house, she notices the... weird ice wall? And stares in disbelief before walking in. Why she didn't notice it sooner, we may never know. Anyway, walking back into the house now. Mega walks with her for support as Crys closes the door. Unconsciously, she speaks to nothing.]

I'm home...

[Except everyone is asleep. Whoops. Mega nudges her gently with her head, and Crys pats her back. Letting out a tired sigh, she'll just walk to the kitchen and get some water or something. And sits down with her good hand covering her face.]

[Voice]

[Much later in the day on the 24th, and at a more reasonable time than midnight, she opens up the journal and pauses for a bit. She sounds a little tired, taking a deep breath before speaking.]

Has being here changed anyone?

You should practice what you preach.

[Action]

[kickingcatcher]

[... yeah, she should've just kept her mouth shut. And since she didn't, Crys is certainly not saying much now.]

... guess I should, huh.

[mischiefbreeder]

[Nope, not moving. He's out cold for the moment.]

[tsuntrader]

[Sure is nice having a Gold cushion to sit on, then.]

[kickingcatcher]

--you're really going to just sit on him? [You could just move him.]

[mischiefbreeder]

[But letting him sleep is better and will prompt a better reaction when he wakes up.]

[tsuntrader]

Why not? [Besides, it's only really sitting on his legs. He's strategically placed so that no matter what direction he might fall in if he falls asleep, he won't have to deal with anything awkward in his face.

...But for now he just leans back. Back and off of his foot. Much better.]

[kickingcatcher]

Well, wouldn't it be a little painful for Gold? [She leans back on the couch, too, and is not going to move her arm for a long time.]

[mischiefbreeder]

Zzzzz...

[Yeah, he's out like a light already, but he starts to mumble in his sleep a bit.]

Mooom... Tungtaro's sleepin' on my legs again... Get 'im off... Zzzz...

[Voice]

[generalflirt]

Oh! Probably a few, yeeeap.

[tsuntrader]

I could always shove him onto your lap.

[kickingcatcher]

... no thanks. [She just gives both a look, but smiles a bit at Gold's sleep talking.]

[mischiefbreeder]

But he's heavy... I think he's been puttin' on weight... Zzz...

[Yeah, he just called you fat, Silver.]

[Voice]

[kickingcatcher]

... you can count me among them. If you want.

[tsuntrader]

...I'm putting on weight? [Any other course of action is paused to tilt his head and consider this now.]

[kickingcatcher]

[She tries to hide her smile behind a hand.]

That's a good thing in your case.

[mischiefbreeder]

Shoulda named you... Fattytaro... Zzz....

[tsuntrader]

Fattytaro... [He should probably be offended by this.

He really isn't. At all. The times that Blue's told him to try to take better care of himself come to mind.]

[kickingcatcher]

[Oh that definitely gets a few giggles out of her.] I guess you've been eating better while I wasn't here. I'm glad.

[mischiefbreeder]

[He goes quietly now, snoring softly and shifting around a bit on the couch under Silver's fat ass.

Fatty.]

[Voice]

[generalflirt]

Hooooh. That's abrupt - does Gold's trust work by proxy?

[Voice]

[kickingcatcher]

--eh? No, why would you say that?

[Action]

[tsuntrader]

These things happen. [It has nothing to do with who should do what.]

[Action]

[kickingcatcher]

[Yeah, too bad she's still learning all this.]

... yeah, that's true.

[Action]

[tsuntrader]

[...And now he sits up and looks over at Crys... Before putting a hand on her head. Yep, you got that right, Silver's headpatting Crys.]

Cheer up, alright? Everything's gonna be okay.
