Scooter 7.3 - Report Card Blues

[moveobjectsron]

Welcome back to the Scooters everybody. Today we continue on with objectively the worst heir since the inception of this save, miss Laila, and her terrible misadventures at a terrible little university. Personally, I am excited. Aren't you?

Also, do you like this new style? I think its very funky fresh.

 

Spare check-in! Emery is grown up now. Not really sure why I thought to document this, but I did. He's actually not bad but his face is a little horsey. idk he's of no importance to me. Bye.

Emery: Wait, you sure you don't wanna hear about--

No, for the last time, Emery, bye.

Looks like the robotics facility is having a showcase day where they show off all their fun bots! Look at the little droney one. I want all of them.

Did I ever make any of these? No. I did not. Did I ever think about them at all after this? Also no. But it's the ✨ hindsight ✨ that counts.

Laila is facing a backfiring problem wherein she has so many hobbies she doesn't like to return them, so she defaults to her favourite one: messing with people.

Laila: Boo!! You're never going to amount to anything in a meaningful way in your parents' eyes!

Alex: Stop! STOOOOPPPP!!!

{A/N: Why did I name this rando? I didn't even edit them. Whatever.}

This is how Laila sleeps knowing she's the biggest asshole in Tidal Tower.

Laila's dreams: (Foxbury Academy burning down with robots taking over and eating people)

Xiamei, from across the room: (angry muttering and texting about her terrible roommate to a friend)

Laila: (contented sigh)

The Bot Savants have gathered at the student commons at the wrong time.

Club member 1: Are you our new initiate? Where's your shirt?

Koichi: I'm not--

Club member 2: Be careful using the equipment. Our team lead says you should always have a team lead or an instructor present.

Koichi: (deep sigh) I am a goddamn team lead. Welcome to your first official meeting.

Club members: ...oh

The problems with Foxbury's layout become so apparent, it really starts to take away from the experience. Between living in a dorm that has to load and manage like 6 other Sims, and going up and down 5 flights of stairs to get anywhere, Laila is routinely late to her classes by like, an hour each time.

Laila: Oh no :/ My class attendance scores that I care so much about.

Let the record show that Koichi is constantly studying and Laila is constantly not. Look, you can see the bastard playing the Sims AGAIN right now.

Laila: My simblr needs content! I must give it content!

Koichi: Man, you're so worried about your Sims' needs failing you've completely forgotten about your real life self failing.

Laila: Ignoring you, Kawahara.

Another day, another fight between Mei and Laila. It's starting to become a nightly ritual at this point in time. This time Laila emerged victorious. It's because of all the basketball (???).

Xiamei: Ughhh, this is bad for my health.

Laila: Wouldn't you know it, there's a brain in there after all. Happy for you, babe.

Koichi found one of Laila's victims sobbing in the bathroom.

Alex: (sniffs) Why...is she..so...mean!

Koichi: Hey, man, look at the bright side...you're not tied to this dorm! You can go to whatever one you want to!

Alex: But I don't wanna move! This is the only dorm I can affo-ho-ho-hooooord!

Koichi: Uhh...uh...sorry dude. Uh...can I piss now?

Besides, Laila is reforming her ways and is being a model citizen. Here she is doing her laundry (after some other girl's blood and snot got on it)...

...and taking out the trash after eating (she stole a meal from someone who wasn't paying any attention).

She's...yeah!

Laila: Please do not confuse me for a decent person. I couldn't bear it.

After that initial hangout at the pub, Laila and Ichi have been hanging out a little bit more.

Koichi: ...you know what? As weird as it is, you're the least obnoxious person in the dorm.

Laila: No. You're serious?

Koichi: Serious. Well, actually, that's me. I'm the least obnoxious--the rest of you are all literally insane, but...you're alright.

Laila: ...No. No. This cannot stand. Get up right now. I'm gonna push you in the river.

Koichi: LET ME BE NICE, DAMN IT.

Looks like Ichi boy has come down with a case of...??? The bubonic fucking plague?

Koichi: It's because I opened my Florentine port to ships coming from the East. (deep sigh). Rookie mistake.

I am once again here to point out the duality of man. Laila, sleeping on a bench AND her grades, and Koichi, so busted from the lack of sleep that he is conking out while standing up.

I wonder who's going to get the better GPA at the end of the semester. It's currently such a mystery. (shitty jazz hands)

You sometimes catch Laila de-stressing (from doing fuck-all) by dancing.

Laila: (humming)

Someone, banging on the door: Keep it down in there! People are trying to sleep!

Laila: Why don't you gag on my fat clam and then I'll keep it down, okay?

*＊✿❀　❀✿＊*

And now we've arrived at the part where Luca actually passed away. Brought to you by an elder Briana, an elder Jamie, and Emery. Rest in peace, Luca Ramón Scooter. You certainly did exist.

Jamie: (sigh) Oh, Luca! I can't believe you're g--gone!

Briana: This is a bad time, probably, Jamie, but..................... get out of my house.

Jamie: What?!

Briana: You have officially outlived your purpose in the Scooter Legacy. So, peace out.

Jamie: (wails even harder)

Okay, man, this is starting to get a little annoying. BUT in Laila's defense, she did not initiate this one. She just won it. So the onus is on Mei for pushing her luck.

Laila: ...and don't fuck with me so close to bedtime ever again. (spits)

Xiamei: (anime moan)

Laila: what

Xiamei: what

This is how Koichi sleeps knowing he doesn't have to contend with a shitty roommate messing up his life.

Koichi's dreams: (Hellish anxiety nightmares where he loses everything he has and also he has no pants on)

Koichi: (sleepy whimper)

Xiamei, aside: (snoring)

Laila: Hey Lin-Z. Play "High-octane Workout Playlist Dubstep Edition".

Speaker: Okay. Playing playlist.

--HORRIBLE SCREECHING SOUNDS--

Xiamei: Wh--huh?! Aaaauughghghhhh!!

Laila: Hehe. Morning, babe.

Ichi (and coincidentally, I) has just discovered r/cringe and he cannot look away.

Koichi: You're laughing. Someone is doing BTS choreography in public in a fursuit and you're laughing.

In fact, Laila and Ichi are spending quite a bit of time together. Just the two of them.

Koichi: ...you know a lot about stars, surprisingly enough.

Laila: Eh, just a little bit. Not like I've committed all the constellations to memory in the eighth grade to deal with the mortifying ordeal of being observed as an axious child...or anything.

Koichi: That was so specific. Are you good?

Laila: (inhales) Never better.

Koichi: Ready for your final grades to drop this semester?

Laila; Eh, I've already seen'em. I hacked the system, remember?

Koichi: So that was you. Knew it. What's your highest mark?

Laila: 52.

Koichi: Fifty...two? Laila. They're gonna put you on academic probation.

Laila: What...does that entail?

Koichi: Are you serious?! Laila, if you don't get your grades up, they're straight up gonna just expel you. Don't you get how competitive Foxbury is? A 50 isn't a pass here--not by a long shot.

Laila: No?! Fuck! Ichi, what am I supposed to do now?!

Koichi: ...get your grades up? I thought that was obvious.

Laila: AAAACKCKHFFFJJDKWWWJDF

Koichi: Okay, stop panicking. I can help you...

Laila: Yes!

Koichi: If you commit to studying and doing a good job.

Laila: Uh...okay...?

Koichi: No, Laila. No half-hearted answers. It's a yes or a no. Remember--your academic future depends on it. I can just as easily watch you flounder about until you eventually fail and you have to go home crying to your parents.

Laila: Okay, yes, I'll do it! (exhales) Damn, Ichi. You're almost as mean as me. Keep it up.

*＊✿❀　❀✿＊*

Oh my god they were study partners. Anyway, see y'all next time!
