From aliceinwhumperland's Whump Word(s) Of The Day: "You weren't answering my calls so I used my key. You okay?"
One minute John's plotting the course of what looks like a rogue asteroid that has gone way off its trajectory at what would be 10pm Tracy Island time.
The next he's looking up into the wide - and worried - blue eyes of his eldest brother.
John frowns. Scott looks all panicky, like he was in the middle of doing something else before he arrived here, and it's a look John hasn't seen on his brother in…in a long time.
Scott let's out a long breath, as if he'd been holding it in, and runs both hands through his already disheveled hair. Relief floods him so obviously that John can see it clearly.
'Scott? What's wrong?'
'Wrong? You weren't answering my calls.'
'You called?'
'My many calls. So I used my key. Are you okay?'
'I'm fine Scott. I guess I just lost track of time.'
Scott leans forward and squeezes his shoulder. 'I need a coffee after a scare like that,' he says over his shoulder as he makes his way to the kitchen.
John nods absently, the data has already reclaimed him for a second. Until his brain catches up with what's just happened.
'Wait…how do you have a spare key to Five?'
