Case 38: Turnabout Grounding

[It's Friday afternoon, and Kay's already planning out what she's going to do this wekeend.  Maybe some softball practice at the park, going out for burgers and a movie with her boyfriend, just generally hanging around town... typical teenager type stuff.  She comes happily bouncing on home, only to run into Tlachtga's drone waiting for her at the door.  Arms folded, foot tapping impatiently on the floor, and looking none too pleased with her oldest daughter.]

"Oh, h... hi.  Um... mom.  What's up?"

"What's up?  What's up?  This is 'what's up,' young lady!"  [And the drone holds up the box of condoms Kay had gotten from Ema for her big night with Yamamoto up on Makeout Point.  Kay immediately shrinks back, knowing exactly what kind of talk she's about to get.]  "I found these in your sock drawer while I was cleaning!  Where did you get them?"

"I... I'm just holding onto them for a friend!  They're not mine, I swear!"

"Uh-huh."  [DRONESTAAAAAAAARE.]

"O-okay... so, uh... yeah.  They are mine.  But shouldn't you be happy that I'm using protection and being safe about it?"

"Happy?  Happy?  My daughter is going around doing... indecent things! - with strange boys, and I should be happy?  Who's this guy anyway, Kay?  I've never even met him!  You won't even introduce him to me, and I'm supposed to be happy for you?"

"Well... maybe this is why I haven't introduced him!  Maybe I knew you'd just freak out like this!"

"Kay Elizabeth Crawford!"  [Yeah, her middle name isn't even Elizabeth at all, but the drone mom seems to be saying it with such conviction...]  "Don't you dare speak to me that way!  Go to your room."

"...What?"

"You heard me, young lady.  Go to your room.  You're grounded.  I'm very disappointed in you, Kay."

"You're grounding me?  You can't do that!"

"I can, and I am.  Now march."

[The drone points to the stairs.  Kay just storms up them in a huff.]

[Phone; standard non-drone, non-Grady, non-Mayor filter]

"This sucks!  My drone mom just grounded me!  Can you believe it?  I'm practically an adult myself, and she tells me to go to my room!  I'm not even allowed out of the house until the weekend's over!"

[Action - after the phone conversations]

[Anyone passing by 337 Brady will see a certain Thief of Truth attempting to stealth her way out of her room through the window.  She's trying to climb into the tree growing in the front yard just next to her window, hoping she can jump, make it into the branches, and then climb her way down and to freedom.  It's a couple of feet from the window to the tree, though, and it looks a little risky.  Feel free to ask her what the heck she's doing or try to help her get out of the house in a less immediately dangerous way.]

((OOC: Just make it clear in your first comment whether you're replying to the phone or the action stuff.))

So what was it? Oh, oh, I bet it's something really cool!

"It's pretty embarrassing, actually."

[TOTALLY KEEP PUSHING HER, IT'LL BE GREAT 8D]

Yep! I wonder, I wonder, what could it be, hmmm?

[identity profile] thief-of-truth.livejournal.com 2010-10-09 03:22 pm (UTC)(link)
You have to promise you won't tell anyone I told you, okay?

[identity profile] tsundorapettan.livejournal.com 2010-10-09 03:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Promise! I would pinky swear on it, but we can't do it over the phone. So if I lie, may I cut off my finger and eat a thousand needles!

"And you especially can't tell Takeshi, since he lives with you and everything."

[She'll tell her in the next comment, I swear. XD]

[identity profile] tsundorapettan.livejournal.com 2010-10-09 03:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Sure thing! ...Takeshi? Oh, yeah, he's your boyfriend, isn't he? ...This involves him? Oh, the suspense, I can hardly stand iiiiit~!

Um... it was, uh... a box of condoms.

[identity profile] tsundorapettan.livejournal.com 2010-10-09 03:40 pm (UTC)(link)
O, ..... oh..... I see...

done

[identity profile] tsundorapettan.livejournal.com 2010-10-09 03:42 pm (UTC)(link)
So you guys are at that stage already, huh...

[identity profile] thief-of-truth.livejournal.com 2010-10-09 04:49 pm (UTC)(link)
"Uh... yeah..."

[Sounds some odd mix of pleased and embarrassed.]

[identity profile] tsundorapettan.livejournal.com 2010-10-10 05:05 pm (UTC)(link)
S, so... um....

... How does it feel like?

[identity profile] thief-of-truth.livejournal.com 2010-10-10 05:06 pm (UTC)(link)
It was actually a little awkward at first, but once we got over being nervous about it, it was a lot better. It... felt really good.

[identity profile] tsundorapettan.livejournal.com 2010-10-10 05:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Eheheheh! It's pretty funny! Even though I'm his... ergh, his sort of mom, I'm asking you how it felt! Any other mother would be getting pissed off 'cause you did it with her son! Ahahaha!

[identity profile] thief-of-truth.livejournal.com 2010-10-10 05:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, that's why my drone mom got all mad. She thinks I'm some kind of tramp or something, sleeping around with guys before I'm married.

[identity profile] tsundorapettan.livejournal.com 2010-10-10 06:13 pm (UTC)(link)
It's okay as long as you use protection! And as long as you guys really love each other!

[identity profile] thief-of-truth.livejournal.com 2010-10-10 06:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Yup! I got the whole sex talk from a friend of mine in town, and she bought me the condoms too. I guess I'll have to ask her to get me some more, though, since my last box just got taken away.

[identity profile] tsundorapettan.livejournal.com 2010-10-10 06:33 pm (UTC)(link)
It's totally no fair! You were totally safe and prepared about it!

...Huh. So, what're you gonna do now?

Well, first I'm gonna escape from solitary confinement. And then I'm gonna try to get another box.

fff sorry that 1/2 there was accidental ;;

[identity profile] tsundorapettan.livejournal.com 2010-10-10 07:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Want some help with that? Uh, with the escaping from so- solit- solitary conf- confimi- confimnent- confinement! Want some help with that part?
