[Action]

[Well, someone is sure in a good mood today! Karkat is going about doing his morning chores and heading off to school smiling and whistling.

Wait, what?

Something is definitely not right.]

[Action; Later]

[Out on the lawn of 1338 Benny Road, Karkat is helpfully whistling and doing the lawnmowing.

Suddenly, out of nowhere, another Karkat runs up to him and punches him in the face.]

[Terezi, covered in goo, is dragging along...

...Terezi...

uh.

what?

that seems to be what's happening. a goo-covered Terezi has a dry Terezi bound by rope and tape around her torso. her legs are free to walk. the dry, bound Terezi is covered in chalk and marker drawings.

the goo-covered Terezi calls out.]

Karkat! [she sounds pretty excited.] Karkat I got stuck in this weird recuperacoon and then someone let me out and I found this alternate timeline me. I think she's doomed or something because she tried to kill me!



You tried strangling me.



[the goo-covered Terezi sighs...... and then notices there's two Karkats.] Wait! You too?!

[crusthatecean.livejournal.com]

[Karkat glances up from driving his fist into the now bloody face of doppleganger Karkat only to notice the Terezis.]

Yes, me too!

[foretastes.livejournal.com]

[oh. OH FUCK. WHICH IS THE REAL KARKAT......]

Stop! Uuuurgh, oh my god, I can't stand the sight of you actively engaging in your self-hate fetish where the entire world can see.

[Terezi drags along her doppleganger by the rope and tries to break up the Karkats.] Karkats, stop!

[crusthatecean.livejournal.com]

It's not a fucking fetish, and don't pretend you're any different. You know we both heard how many vowels she just drew that word out to, and you've already tied her up. She so obviously fills you with just as much dislust.

[foretastes.livejournal.com]

What do you mean, 'different'?! Other Terezis are perfectly cool! Even when they are self-homicidal.

[Terezi shoots her other self a betrayed look. the tied-up Terezi giggles.]

He is not onto anything! And I am not feeling any kind of dislust for me! [checks the pod!Karkat's face.] Ugh, you're a bleeding mess. I figured you'd be freaking out over this by now.

[crusthatecean.livejournal.com]

Fuck you! You're not a future version of me, you're not even me!

[Punching him again.]

Also, I said disgust.

[foretastes.livejournal.com]

I heard the L in there just as much as you heard all eight infuriating syllables.



[Terezi resists the urge to kick her double in the shins because she's trying to set an example here. but Karkat's right. she's getting on her nerves. she tries pulling the Karkats apart again.] Ugh, see, you are doing it again! Have some dignity! Have some shame, Karkat!

[crusthatecean.livejournal.com]

There was no L! Besides, you're the weird one. You're the one who is probably dying to find out how you taste.

[Getting pulled off...]

[foretastes.livejournal.com]

[GLARES AT HIM. Karkat may notice that some of that chalk on pod!Terezi is smeared. possibly by a tongue.] I do not-



[Terezi screeches and yanks on a rope which happens to be around her other self's neck.]

[crusthatecean.livejournal.com]

[Looking a little flustered, enough that he doesn't when pod Karkat punches him in the back of the head.]

[foretastes.livejournal.com]

[Karkat that is horrifying.

Terezi grabs pod Karkat now and tries to smack him.] Ugh, I said stop!

[crusthatecean.livejournal.com]

He started it! He shouldn't have kidnapped me and put me in a pod.

[foretastes.livejournal.com]

What makes you think it's him that did it? Are you even my Karkat?

[crusthatecean.livejournal.com]

Yes, of course I am! He's an obvious fake.

[foretastes.livejournal.com]

What if you're not?
