[ so there's a little bit of fussing once the feed starts up; the camera is full of sharp, shark-like teeth before terezi finally backs up and pushes her red glasses up her snout. and she is not alone on the feed! off to her left, aradia can be seen. ]

So this is a message that goes out to all you humans out there with "birthdays"! You would all be wise to listen up because this is pretty important.

[aradia shows a smile, though excitement is clearly radiating from her as her eyes twinkle and her smile widens with words.]

With these "birthdays" it's been said depending on where it lands on that you are a specific Zodiac sign! That's the reason we're here to talk to you, since it appears these Zodiac signs have come from us.

Yeah, see!

[ terezi holds up a black shirt with a teal libra sign, as though it was proof to her claims. no one tell her she's off-center, shhh. ]

See, we trolls are given a sign when we're hatched. Mine is apparently something you guys call "Libra". Aradia here is "Aries".

[a light tap on the other troll's arm goes to gesture terezi to lower the shirt (she does, after giving aradia a look), so aradia can show her own black shirt with a dark red aries sign on it. these clothing stores have some zodiac shirts quite in stock. she lowers it shortly after showing it.]

Which as you can see from both of these. We can't exactly explain as to why that is, other than the conclusion we've come across that on making a new Universe our signs were passed on over. Signs that each of you have connected to your "birthdays" for many reasons including those horoscopes you put up in the newspaper.

Which is weird... What's the deal with those horoscopes?

[ >:? A SHRUG. ]

Anyway we wanna know what zodiac signs you guys are! We've got a lot of trolls here now, almost all twelve!

Maybe they'll be able to enlighten us on that.

[from what she's read though it sounds really silly 0u0 no that's stupid]

Like us they each represent a sign as well, so do feel free to tell us! Maybe you'll be able to find it as equally interesting.

And then we can tell you what troll you belong to. ... Oh but if you're—

[ a pause and terezi licks the screen of aradia's nv device ]

...an Aquarius... Hehehehe! Sorry in adva~nce.

( ooc | terezi and aradia!! both canon and non-canon birthdays count. pretty much all the trolls -- and some kids! -- will be tagging around, threadjacking and whatnot, with and without quirks. just let us know in the subject line if you'd like a reply without the quirk.

pile in and find your character's patrol troll! :D idea borrowed from the lovely people at soul_campaign. )

Since thousands of years ago, but I don't really get it, either. Okay, you're not that kind of god. What kind?

[ornerycaps]

DOES IT MATTER, THE POINT IS I CREATED YOU.
AND THIS IS ALL DUE TO MY INCREDIBLE TACTICAL SKILLS AS LEADER.
THE ABILITY TO MOBILIZE AND MOTIVATE A BUNCH OF USELESS PEOPLE TOWARD A COMMON GOAL IS EXACTLY WHAT CAUSED EARTH TO EXIST IN THE FIRST PLACE.
AND BECAUSE I'M EXTREMELY AMBITIOUS
AND INTREPID.
THE POINT IS, LEADERSHIP IS IN MY BLOOD.
END OF STORY.

[faking]

So how do I even address you?

[ornerycaps]

NORMALLY I WOULD MAKE YOU CALL ME YOUR GREAT AND ALMIGHTY GOD.
BUT UH, IT'S KARKAT.

[faking]

Gracious of you, Karkat. Normally I'd introduce myself as the Lord Alois Trancy, but seeing as how you're my great and almighty god, I'm Alois.

[ornerycaps]

FINALLY, SOMEONE THAT MAKES SENSE AND CAN COME TO A DECENT UNDERSTANDING.
BUT ALOIS
WHAT KIND OF FUCKING NAME IS THAT.
WHATEVER, JUST WHEN VRISKA COMES SHOVING HERSELF AT YOU DON'T LET HER GET TOO COCKY.
GOOD LUCK WITH DEALING WITH HER.
