From my perspective, this was not a case of you simply “doing your job” and being slightly snarky. This was the second time that night the NSB and KG had flooded into the ICC in a manner that effectively amounted to a raid in how it was carried out. Multiple personnel entered through both the garage and main access and walked straight past me without even the slightest acknowledgement. When I confronted you directly about entry policy into the ICC, your response was essentially that it “doesn’t work like that” and that I don’t get to control it, before continuing further into the Bendlerblock anyway. At that point, regardless of tone, you were actively disregarding military control. That is the behavior I took issue with, not just attitude, but a direct challenge to command authority.
The demotion was used as an immediate, in-the-moment de-escalation to avoid turning the ICC into a gunfight with NSB, KG, and other armed forces all present. I chose not to escalate it into violence on the spot because that would have spiralled out of control instantly. De-escalation in the moment does not mean the situation was resolved. Later, once things had stabilized and I had time to properly address what happened, I escalated it to a PK because, from my character’s perspective, this crossed from arrogance into a complete disregard for my character and his position
