Hey, so remember that plan we had where I get your act together for you and do an embarrassing amount of work on something that should have been taken care of a long time ago?

For those of you with holes in your pan or who are new or recently panscrubbed, this was the call I made about a perigee ago where I took a list of the houses willing to take panicked strangers into their homes whenever we find ourselves in the midst of a town propelled fuckstorm. The homes have someone who knows what they are doing with regard to fighting, healing, or general skill at the fine art of not dying.

So, yeah. I have a list, it's about ready to be given out, but with the turnover rate here, I'm going to need to update this shit for accuracy probably around once a human month. I'm going to give a list of all my contacts, and if you know any of them have been panscrubbed or droned recently, do us all a favor and let me know before I pass this out? The contacts I have, who talked to either me or Lucas, are: Hawke, Pokey, Negi, Taiwan, Firo, Lucas, Balin, Diana, Riza, Ilsa, Hal, Fate, Miku, Lyra, Barton, Dakki, Wes, Kotomi, Hiccup, Australia, April, Sakuya, Cable, Rin, Bang, Rittz, Ciel, Minato, Redmage, Virgina, Rory, Chaos, Tiffany, Miakis, Sara, and Alice. A fine collection of names, none of which are stupid or sound made up in any way. If you could just call and let me know you're still here, or if someone who knew these people could call and tell me they're gone, that would be helpful.

Otherwise, copies of the list will be in my parchment communication receptacle tomorrow morning. I'll send out another one next month, so let me know if anyone gets scrubbed or wants to be added or removed by that point.

In the event I'm panscrubbed, the current person I'm leaving in charge of dealing with this in my absence is Kanaya. If you want to take responsibility for this if I'm not around, let me know. I also need some personable fucks to take on the unenviable task of passing this out to newcomers.

If you have a comment that isn't relevant to this, don't waste my time. I'm already busting my ass over this project when I don't even care what happens to you, so don't test me. I will be hanging up on all stupid comments. Thanks.

((This letter will be in Karkat's mailbox the morning of the 17th! If you know someone on there has been droned or if you don't want to be on (or if you want to be added) reply to that letter and we'll say the info gets on there/removed by the time it goes out. You can reply ICly too but it will just be easier if I have an OOC comment on the letter noting the change. Thank you! And yes, I have permission from Wighty to say that Karkat and Lucas shared information.))

[Hangs up.]

[calls back, ready to screech into the phone.]

Yes?

[just makes a particularly awful and irritating shrieking noise.]

Karkat!

[calls again!!]

I'm just picking up to say that I find this effort, far from infuriating, merely sad and pathetic.

[Hangs up!]

[calls

again!!!!!!!!]

[picks up the phone and hangs it up immediately.]

[calls

again can you believe that.]

[Yes he can picking it up and sounding so angry! So angry!

No wait I mean he sounds cool, calm, and collected and not giving a shit about this...]

What do you want?

There are people trying to make actual calls related to an important subject, and here you are amusing yourself by trying to sprinkle my thinkpan with lighter fluid and waiting around for the moment it spontaneously combusts.

[>:'[]

I just wanted to say hi, and also that this entire thing is boring. You are going to hang up again now!

No, I won't, because you'll continue keeping my audio hook clogged with pointless calls. I'm just going to have to hold out hope that you'll listen to reason.

Sorry me trying to organize a safe way to cope with the regularly scheduled fuckery this town throws at us is boring to you.

You should be more concise about these things! Have a hook! Make it fun for peopel!

I don't care if it's fun for people, though. I only want to talk to the people capable of taking this seriously.

Siiiiiiiighhhh. You'll get more people interested that way!

Believe it or not, plenty are interested based on the merits of the idea without needing me to juggle and tell jokes to get them there.

Even Gamzee?

No, but that goes back to my earlier point.

Why would I possibly want Gamzee to be interested in this? He's not going to be helpful, so I don't care if my message entertains him.

Rude! Maybe Gamzee and I will form a club of our own.

Go ahead! I don't really care if you do!

Don't even think of trying to make plans in the case of events, though. He's staying right here, and so should you.

No way! I can fend for myself.

Suit yourself.

[they both know she'll show up at his place anyway the next time something bad happens.

she suddenly sounds serious, changing the topic.] Hey, can we talk about something? Something else.

I've already suspended my off topic comment policy for you, so we might as well.

[He can recognize the change in tone, though, and he immediately sounds less angry with her.]

What's up?
