[Action; 1338 Benny Road]

[Karkat took his turn with the milk on the first day, to bring Jade back from kill drone state. He's been dealing with the after effects of the nasty poison that was inside ever since.

But today it was his turn again. He had been too sick the day before to prevent Jade from drinking her share, but this evening he prevented that from happening again by just refusing to go to sleep. Once he heard the milk delivery in the morning, he dragged his ass down to the front door to drink the bottle.

His housemates will find him still downstairs, holding the empty bottle of milk. He has the TV turned on to some infomercial for a groundbreaking new blender, and he's watching in fascination and horror.]


[Phone]

[Karkat's voice sounds hoarse and urgent when he picks up the phone to call Mayfield later that day.]

Okay.

Don't look now.

But the horrorterrors are right behind you.

Oh fuck! You unbelievable dumbass, I told you not to look!

[Action; Around Mayfield]

[Shortly after the phone call, Karkat wanders outside for a little bit, not really paying attention to where he's walking. He's carrying a paper towel roll curved in a way that looks vaguely like a sickle, and is swiping it randomly at the air from time to time.]

[Phone; Later]

[Much, much later that night, an extremely tired but lucid sounding Karkat makes a phone call once again.]

Wow. Uh.

So, I'm sure Jade and Gamzee didn't let me make any phone calls or anything earlier, right?

Just making sure about that.

[Pushing her off god why is she such a freak!]

I don't know, I'd fucking explain but this shithive broad is currently working my last nerve.

[reaches again..... probably jams her hand in his eye but accident but that's what you get for pushing away a blind girl!!]

You love when I work your last nerve! I think you missed it.

[identity profile] crusthatecean.livejournal.com 2011-08-19 06:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, sure, I missed being fucked with at every opportunity by the bullshit queen herself.

[rubbing his eye, she did that on purpose, he's sure of it.]

[identity profile] foretastes.livejournal.com 2011-08-19 07:43 pm (UTC)(link)
I can hear it in your voice. You are so enthusiastic about it! You are like 'Terezi please pester me more!'

You totally missed me.

[identity profile] crusthatecean.livejournal.com 2011-08-20 12:22 am (UTC)(link)
Don't try to analyze my voice for things. If I missed you at all, it's only because I forgot what a pain in the spinal crevice you are.

[That wasn't a denial...]

1/2

[hehehe nope and don't think she didn't notice]

Yeah, exactly! I'll be here to remind you. Every day. [she smiles. even if everything here is strange and new and different and nobody really knows what to do, at least he's all right- and Gamzee, too, and even Tavros. maybe there's hope for all of them. maybe they weren't doomed after all.]

[identity profile] foretastes.livejournal.com 2011-08-20 12:31 am (UTC)(link)
[she full-on grins then, gazing at a point beyond his shoulder.] I was kidding before, you know. You weren't quoting anything at me!

Uh! I'm sorry, I'm not looking anymore!

[identity profile] crusthatecean.livejournal.com 2011-08-20 12:40 am (UTC)(link)
Bull.

Shit.

What did you do with Tavros, fuckass?

[ Jade doesn't really want anyone else drinking the milk, but dying has kind of knocked the wind out of her, and when she wakes up alive in her bed and hears Karkat heading downstairs she doesn't make any attempt to stop him. It's a little while before she even drags herself out of bed, not even bothering to get dressed, just wrapping herself in her blanket and heading downstairs. ]

Hey.

[ She flops down on the couch beside him, sort of leans against him and pulls her blanket over her head. ]

Are you okay?

get out double dave icons X-( also 1/2

[identity profile] crusthatecean.livejournal.com 2011-08-20 12:45 am (UTC)(link)
Well. I guess that might not be the most irritating--

[identity profile] crusthatecean.livejournal.com 2011-08-20 12:45 am (UTC)(link)
Hey!

Fuck you! I never believed all of that bullshit anyway!

[identity profile] bullsit.livejournal.com 2011-08-20 12:46 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, now you think, I am Other Tavros, too, oh, no, I'm really not sure, what to think about this, and am experiencing a pretty personal crisis, involving my identity, I think, I need to sit.

[identity profile] crusthatecean.livejournal.com 2011-08-20 12:46 am (UTC)(link)
[Glancing over at her; his expression is definitely off, and he seems to be almost looking through her.]

Hi, Jade.

Good to see you're feeling less dead.

i can't help it she just looks so cute in them IS THIS BETTER X-(

[identity profile] foretastes.livejournal.com 2011-08-20 12:47 am (UTC)(link)
You definitely did, hahaha!! I heard your voice get all weird! You totally fell for it and completely believed you were unironically quoting your movies at me.

[identity profile] crusthatecean.livejournal.com 2011-08-20 12:48 am (UTC)(link)
This is a pretty shoddy impression, douchebag.

The real Tavros doesn't need to sit because he has no legs. I should know, I remember just how much blood got everywhere when they were horribly chainsawed off. It was like a brownish tidal wave of gore.

[personal profile] echidna 2011-08-20 12:52 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah...

[ Jade isn't looking at him so she doesn't see the difference in expression. Something about his comment does strike her as strange though, so she looks up at him, studying him intently. ]

You drank the milk. [ It comes out something between a question and a statement as her brows furrow together. ] Did it make you sick again? Or...

[ She can't quite put her finger on what's wrong, this might be easier if she didn't feel like shit right now. ]

What horrorterrors. Are you fuckin' prank calling me, you little shit? I am going to kill you so hard if you are prank calling me.

[identity profile] bullsit.livejournal.com 2011-08-20 01:32 am (UTC)(link)
Wow, okay, everyone seems to be, remembering, these horrible moments today, but okay, yeah, don't you remember the bit after, where, uh, I got the robolegs, which were definitely cool, and also useful, in the ability to sit?

Also, I could still sit, before, you know.

I GUESS (nottalking)

[identity profile] crusthatecean.livejournal.com 2011-08-20 03:06 am (UTC)(link)
Please, I'd never be so stupid and unoriginal. Even if they are just so great.

[identity profile] crusthatecean.livejournal.com 2011-08-20 03:08 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I remember that.

But that was before Tavros was devoured by horrorterrors.

forgive me i have wronged you

[identity profile] foretastes.livejournal.com 2011-08-20 03:09 am (UTC)(link)
[she laughs.] Are they? It's been a while since I watched one. Well, listened to one. And smelled all the delicious flowery smells coming out of it! And tears. They always smell like tears. [or is that just you...]

[identity profile] crusthatecean.livejournal.com 2011-08-20 03:10 am (UTC)(link)
No. No, I'm great. The milk was fine.

[He definitely does not look great.]

It's just the TV show that's really kind of wigging me out.

Slick! Hi!

Did you stab them all? I bet you stabbed them all, huh.
