♋ 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.]

[Awkwardly waves from the sidewalk wow this is sure to get his attention!]

Oh, uh, hey Karkat, and Karkat's lusus.

[crusthatecean.livejournal.com]

[Yeah, not noticing this. Sorry bro. But then Crabdad snaps something at Karkat and he glances over.]

Oh. Hi.

Have you regained your freakish ability to make stubborn shithead animals listen to you? Because this asshole will not fucking calm down.

[bullsit.livejournal.com]

No, uh, sorry, I can't commune yet, and trying, really hard, only just gives me, um, a headache.

He seems happy, uh, to see you though.

[crusthatecean.livejournal.com]

Too bad, he's a real pain. He won't stop insisting it's past curfew.

[Since Karkat is distracted by Tavros, he now has his arm caught in a pincer.]

Let go!

[bullsit.livejournal.com]

Did you try just talking to him, and asking nicely if you can stay up, a little later? That always worked, with Tinkerbull.

[crusthatecean.livejournal.com]

He's completely unreasonable. I don't see why he has to always lose it over every stupid thing!

[...]

[bullsit.livejournal.com]

He, uh, probably just cares a lot, about you, and wants the best for you, and other lusus things.

[crusthatecean.livejournal.com]

[Wow, kind of looking away, because he knows Tavros hit the nail on the head with that one, and he is happy to see his lusus but this is just the only way they know how to display affection...]

Who knows what he wants. He's being a pain in the nook.

[bullsit.livejournal.com]

. . . I miss Tinkerbull, uh, a lot.

[crusthatecean.livejournal.com]

[Way to make this awkward...]

Oh.

Well...Equius' stupid lusus just showed up, too. So who knows, maybe they're all starting to get here.

[bullsit.livejournal.com]

Oh, uh, maybe, I really hope so, because I want, the human male lusus, in my hive, to meet Tinkerbull, because I think, he would like him, a lot.

[crusthatecean.livejournal.com]

You actually like your human lusus?

[bullsit.livejournal.com]

Yeah, he is very cool, and knows a lot, and said, that he doesn't hate me.

[crusthatecean.livejournal.com]

Those are some low standards.

[bullsit.livejournal.com]

I think, that he might hate a lot of people, considering that sometimes, he likes to sit, outside the hive with a gun, in case he sees them, so not being hated, is kind of an accomplishment, maybe?

[crusthatecean.livejournal.com]

Are you sure it's safe for you to stay with this asshole? He seems like an unstable fuck.
