[Scott's been feeling all kinds of ways since returning to Aldrip. A little off his feet? Not upset exactly, not when he remembers everyone important to him, but it's still a lot. Kind of weird that he's actually older here than back home, and that's not mentioning suddenly getting almost two years of memories shoved inside his head that he completely forgot about until now. But he's trying. A part of him wants to just lie on the bed with Kotone and just take more time to himself, but he figures that he should say something to his friends.

Maybe focusing on them will help. Better than thinking about Alex or how Apocalypse sort of ruined everything back home.

He breathes in, fiddling with his tablet. Something in him wants to change his username from 'shades' to 'cyclops,' but maybe not right now.]

hey, i'm back now. sorry if i worried anyone. a lot happened, like, back home. yeah i went home and came back. i'm okay though.

[None of that sounded super awkward, right.]

if you wanna meet up, i'll be at the diner. you're paying though.

[ooc: Scott's back from his canon update and just Dealing with Stuff. Totally open to threading Scott meeting others in person! Also, he'll be back in regular clothes for the time being, but he will be wearing his visor for now.]

Ultimate brownie milkshake...?

That sounds like something really sweet! Should I be worried?

[laserguy]

uh no? where's there to worry about?

unless you really hate sweet things.

[thenicerone]

No, of course not!

I was wondering just how sweet it was! But if it is, then I would have to get my taste buds ready!

[laserguy]

like really sweet. you will have to prepare yourself, mentally and physically.

now i'm almost doubting if you can handle it.

[thenicerone]

Oh no, then should I take some medicine too?

I wasn't aware that milkshakes were that dangerously sweet!

[laserguy]

nah we'll just face it.

[If they die, they die.]

it's how we will get stronger.

[thenicerone]

Is that so?

It's certainly different from the type of training I've seen with my friends! They usually fight a lot, this is more about mental strength!

[laserguy]

yeah, that's what we're training. our mental strength and our stomach. often forgotten, but super important.

crucial things, yukina. make sure you tell them later about it.

[thenicerone]

Oh, I definitely will!

Especially Yusuke, he's the one with the bigger stomach than all of them! I think he can get more than enough ramen in one sitting. I'm not sure how he can do it!

[laserguy]

[This somehow doesn't surprise him.]

honestly, i think that's more of his teenager side than his demon side. just speaking as a fellow teenage boy. we all got that hidden power in us.

[thenicerone]

Really?

I don't think I ever seen Kazuma eat that much though. That is rather surprising...

[laserguy]

sounds like he needs to train more.

or he just hasn't unlocked the side of him yet. you should definitely mention it to him later.

[thenicerone]

Shall I bring Hiei and Kurama along too?

Or any teenagers?

[laserguy]

not right now, but you could bring them along the next time you take kuwabara out to eat. and definitely teenagers too.

[thenicerone]

I think I will!

Anyone else you would recommend?

[laserguy]

that should be enough. there's a lot of teenagers in aldrip that you'll have to choose from and the whole purpose is to goad kuwabara to eat a whole bowl of ramen or whatever in one go.

at least bring yusuke.

[thenicerone]

If he manages to drink a lot of milkshakes, I hope the both of us can afford it!

[laserguy]

that's when you get hiei to pay for everything. or kurama.

[Since he doesn't know if Hiei has a dollar to his name.]

[thenicerone]

...

Kurama I believe he will. Although, I'm not sure if Hiei will.

[laserguy]

just pull the sibling card.

but it sounds like you got a backup plan anyway.

[thenicerone]

Perhaps I could!

But Hiei wouldn't be generous enough to pay for us!

[laserguy]

i'm pretty sure he'd still pay for you.

[Probably?? Eh, he'll let Kuwabara and Kurama deal with all that. Good luck to them.]

but come on, let's grab something, just the two of us.

[thenicerone]

I don't see why not! Where are you? I'll come and meet you.

[laserguy]

cool. and i'm over here.

[And he'll give her directions to the correct diner. Hope she's prepared for the ultra brownie milkshake.]

You want to wrap this up or....?

[thenicerone]

Then I can't wait to try the milkshake! Hopefully it is as great as you say it is!

[And with that, off she went!]
