[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.

[also watching the infomercial in fascination, although this is not in the least bit unusual for him whoa how do they get the food all liquidy pure motherfuckin magic]

[after Karkat is done with the phone, he might notice that Terezi is sleeping on the living room couch, a pillow clutched in her arms. one of the corners is gnawed. it seems like she's been there a while.]

[ 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?

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.
