[The tidiness is a default that he is pointedly maintaining so as not to Alarm too many people.
The request Kurt bring a bag is more. He knows Kurt can teleport but it was the easiest way to ask him to spend the night - or invite him to - he could think of without admitting some kind of need or desire.
He smiles, in a tight, pained, way at the remark and holds out his hand for... the bag or bottle or Kurt.]
Don't steal my lines; I'll have to make up a pet name and end up calling you waffles or something equally awkward.

[ Alright, well. "Waffles" gets something between a burst of laughter and an indignant snort out of him. He remembers part of his intent here, loosens in demeanor, and digs into his bag before dropping a bottle into Scott's hand. He doesn't withdraw his own hand for a moment, though, tipping it against Scott's as if encouraging him to read the label.
It's nice whiskey. Not that it matters, particularly. They'll either waste it or will hardly break into it at all, depending on preferences. It's just obviously stolen, and stealing from Logan is funny. ]
I encourage you to think about it, mein Freund. I don't think I want to be called Waffles. I couldn't take it very seriously.

[ And before Scott can tell him "no," Midnights walks into the bedroom and takes a seat on the floor beside him. ]

[He looks but then huffs and very slowly removes every sock from his drawer, goes from how they're folded together to rolling them together and makes a black to white gradiant of them.
Very, very slowly.
While drinking.]

[ He sits cross-legged watching his boyfriend literally fold his fucking socks by their color. Midnighter says nothing, though. Just lets Scott do what he feels like he needs to do. ]
[Scott does eventually stop trying to bore Midnighter into leaving, slam the door shut and... fall back into Mid's lap.]
I'm more pissed off this time than I was last time.

[ Midnighter straightens out his legs to give Scott a more comfortable place to lie down. One forearms rests atop the man's chest lightly while the other cards through his dark brown hair. ]
Any reason for that?
Any reason for that?
[He snorts, and is entirely too drunk to care if he's comfortable. He does adjust himself to basically snuggle in, though.]
Yeah. We didn't get 'back to normal' this time. It feels mean - mostly to her - and that petty cruelty pisses me off.

Define "back to normal" for me.
[ For them, normal is a relative and ever-changing state of being. It could mean so many different, equally plausible scenarios. ]

[Good question and without an easy answer, though he has to think about it a little bit. Once he finds it though it seems at least simple.]
Trusting each other again. Comfortable with one another.

[ His hand slides softly up and down the back of one of Scott's arms. ]
Damn. That's shitty.
Damn. That's shitty.
It isn't the first time. I doubt it'll be the last.
Even without accounting for this place.
[That does not make it better]

[ Midnighter simply listens, because there's nothing he can do to change how the man feels or solve the problem. ]
You can keep sorting your socks if that's what you want to do. I'm not gonna stop you.

I'm done. I'm going to lay here and be glad I still have you, thanks.
[Also he's drunk.]
[Also he's drunk.]
[ That pulls a laugh out of him. ]
Samesies, Scotty.
[ Taking hold of his hand, he brings it up to his lips for a kiss on his knuckles. Then he turns it over and kisses his palm. ]
