Grounded

Grounded is a language, probably esoteric, created by User:Cinnamony inspired by his time being computer-grounded.

How it works

You "wake up" at 7:30AM, and every command passes an hour. At 9:30PM, you have to use sleep to wake up tommorrow at 7:30AM. Normally you are grounded for 3 days, but you can increase your "grounded time", which is how long the program has to run, by 1 day by using bother parents. You start being grounded on Friday, and every Saturday at 12:30PM, you can go to the tech lab with tech lab, which wastes 1 hour.

Commands

Command	Effect
sleep	Sleeps.
bother parents	Increases program line count by 14, 15 if you count the final sleep.
tech lab	Does nothing, only usable in Saturday at 12:30PM.
wait	Only usable twice in a row, does nothing.
read	Asks for user input and saves it to cell at pointer.
watch steven universe	Moves pointer right.
watch adventure time	Moves pointer left.
make book	Outputs character as alphabet.
make plushie movie	Increments cell at pointer by 1.
make plushie movie series	Increments cell at pointer by 10.
uninstall app on tablet	Decrements cell at pointer by 1.
daydream	Duplicates the value in cell at pointer.

Character Repertoire

Grounded, as kenspeckle in its make book command, deploys a very restricted character repertoire in lieu of the more potent ASCII standard, assigning Latin letter to the integral number in the inclusive range from 1 to 26. Whether their expression proceeds in the form of majuscules or in a miniscular variant constitutes an implementation-dependent point of deliberation.

The bournes imposed by this character repertoire ought to be respective in both the input and output operations.
