♋ PCG 10; backdated to Thursday

[crusthatecean]

[Action; Outside 1338 Benny Road!]

[Early Thursday morning, there's a strange sight out on Benny Road. A terrifying crab monster appears to be menacing a young troll lad! Karkat is trying to fend off the crab monster with a garden tool and appears to mostly be managing it, but the monster won't stop trying to grab him with its claws.]

[Action; 1338 Benny Road; Later]

[Later that day, in a house that smells horribly of fish but is much cleaner than usual, Karkat is sitting on the couch watching TV. The crab monster is lurking behind the house, occasionally growling until Karkat feeds him some fish from a can.]

[she raises her voice- it's purposefully loud now.] You're on the human planet where almost everyone's got blood just like yours, and you're still being cagey about it in front of me. [she crosses her arms.] Even my blood is red now.

[her expression softens. she knows she should let it go.] ...well, whatever. I'll wait in my room. [she turns to go.]

Yeah, it's the same fucking thing! It's just the specific hue that's an issue with me whether or not it's completely removed from the social context. Thanks for the advice, I'll get over it now.

[It's mostly clotted anyway; it wasn't a bad nosebleed and it won't be long until it stops.]

Forget it, I think I'd better get back to the hive.

[she looks over her shoulder and makes a face.] Well, fuck you too!

[ignoring that. Once he's sure the bleeding has stopped, he's just going to wash off his face and crumple up the shirt so he can throw it away somewhere on his way home.]
