and once again the universe decides to take a massive dump on sollux captor.
apparently being on a meteor awaiting death wasn't enough and then i suddenly found myself on some sorts field on what i can only assume is human earth??
what is even the deal with that?
that is such a stupid play to transport people to and whoever decided on that location should step off and go shove something up their nook.
anyway thanks for the free tour of this horrendously sunny place i guess but if someone could just point me in the direction of the nearest exit, that would be great. ]

[He knows it sucks, but he's had to get used to it. Not like he sleeps much anyways.]

Get a hoodie like I did, it stops you from freezing your bulge off and makes for a good shield against the sun. That's about all we can do, I spend most of my nights either at work at the movie theater or bullshitting around with Dirk.

[twin_armageddons]

What'th the internet here like?

[Getting out all the important questions here obviously]]

And who the hell ith thith Dirk perthon you keep going on about?

[phazeandblood]

Full of as much shit as any internet can be, not too much different just human centric.

[He has to pause when he hears the question about Dirk though. It's usually a bad sign when someone has to ask why you keep mentioning some guy. Fuck. No, it's cool. Just be totally casual about it and it's totally not a thing to worry over.]

Dirk Strider, younger alternate version of Dave's guardian from the human's scratched universe. He's been teaching me to swim between strife training and movies since we've got fuck all else to do at night.

[twin_armageddons]

[Urgh those humans. He still hasn't properly spoken to any yet, mostly shrugging to the ones he met once he arrived here, and he doesn't hold much of an opinion of that particular group of humans they were involved with either.]

Why would you even want to thwim? We're landdwellerth for a reathon you know, you'll probably drown.

[Sollux Captor, hating water since 6 sweeps ago]

[phazeandblood]

Because in case you haven't noticed yet we live right next to the fucking ocean and I don't know about you but I don't want to be the pathetic asshole who has to depend on someone else if a little water gets involved. Not all of us can use freaky psychic powers as protection. And for your fucking information I'm actually doing a pretty damn good job so far.

[twin_armageddons]

Jutht becauthe we live near it doethn't mean you have to purpothely go in it you retarded nookwipe.

[phazeandblood]

I'm saying what if something goes wrong and we'd end up falling in? With my luck in this fucking place I'm willing to be prepared for anything.

[twin_armageddons]

Fine, whatever, do what you want. But if thomething trieth to eat you or thomething in there, don't come crying to me.


Where are you right now, anyway.

[He sort of wants to see you]

[phazeandblood]

I have a long list of people I would "go crying to" and believe me, assholes like you are at the bottom of that list.

[Yeah, he kind of really wants to see his bff too.]

The better question here is where the fuck are you? I know my way around this place so I'd be less likely to get lost if I just came and found you instead of you trying to make it to my place.

[twin_armageddons]

Good becauthe I don't want to hear it.

I'm.. fuck, I don't even know where I am. Outthide the hivethtem where I'm apparently thtaying.

[phazeandblood]

[Just rolling his eyes, but he's already getting up and shuffling his crabtop.]

Fly up to the roof then, I'll meet you there. I'm on the second to top floor so it'll be faster that way.

[twin_armageddons]

[Without saying anything, he begins to make his way up there.]

Hurry up then.

[phazeandblood]

[Just shuts off his crabtop completely before tossing it into his sylladex, grabbing a spare zipper hoodie on his way out the door because it was even colder up there on the roof and it was fucking freezing outside as it was. This climate is a bitch but the others will just have to deal and get used to it.

It doesn't take him more than a minute before he's up there, mildly proud of himself for beating Sollux there. Even if it was probably just barely, still. It shows his speed training with Dirk is paying off.]

[twin_armageddons]

[Sollux floats up, stepping onto the roof and waiting for Karkat to say anyting. It still seems really weird to him because he had seen Karkat such a short time ago, yet here he is a whole sweep older.

He walks towards his best friend, but he doesn't look too happy about it.]

It'th fucking cold.

[And humans everywhere and there's sun and he doesn't want to be here oh why is he here]

[phazeandblood]

[Karkat rolls his eyes as he walks over to him, leaning up (god dammit why is Sollux still taller than him?) and draping his spare jacket around his shoulders.]

Quit fucking whining, I'll buy you some warmer clothes and you can pay me back when you get a job.

[A bit of hesitance, but fuck it. It's been a full sweep and not only that but just... it's so familiar. Not the dead eyes, not the half dead eyes. Just actually the best friend he grew up with before everything around them went to shit and it's a bit of nostalgia he really needs.

So with just a small growl to himself for being so stupid out in the open like this he says fuck it all and hugs the lanky bastard.]

I don't want to hear a god damned word about this Captor, it's been a long time for me okay?

[twin_armageddons]

[The hug is really unexpected, if anything he thought KK was going to yell at him some more. For a few moments Sollux just stands there rooted to the spot.

Yet then he sighs softly, loosely placing his hands on Karkat and being at least 50% invested in this hug.]

Clingynesth ith thuch an unattractive feature you know KK. [Like he's one to talk.]

[phazeandblood]

What the fuck did I just say? Shut up and enjoy the moment.

[Karkat has absolutely not qualms about digging his claws in for that little comment.]

[twin_armageddons]

Thorry, ith thith the part where the violinth play and you thtart looking withtfully into my eyeth? We're not in thome dumb rom-com, KK.

[But now he will hug him properly. And perhaps dig his own claws in a little too. Enjoy the moment, indeed.]

[phazeandblood]

[You know what? He doesn't even care if he tears holes in the hoodie he's lending Sollux right now. He hopes he's digging in hard enough to draw blood you heartless prick.]

Oh my god just shut the fuck up for one god damned minute, can you do that? Is that a thing you're capable of or is your thinkpan damaged to the point of you not even knowing how to do that anymore?

[twin_armageddons]

Don't you think that'th a little hypocritical coming from you? I've been waiting for the day I catch a break from you're incesthant whining. Know what that will be? A fuckin' miracle.

[Ow, god dammit. Okay hug time is over and he lets go to grab KK's arms and try to physically remove them from himself.]

[phazeandblood]

[He lets out an agitated huff but lets go and backs up, slipping his hands into his pockets.

But then there's a violent clinking noise, someone woke up from their nap and there's no keeping it hiding anymore. With a roll of his eyes he pulls out a little white and red ball.]

You're still a shitty friend and now you get to meet the bane of my existence in this place.

[The ball changes sizes, from tiny to filling up Karkat's entire hand before it opens in a red flash of light.

And suddenly there's a mischievous little black and red fox who looks far too happy, high pitched telepathic voice about as annoying as it is cute.]

Hey! I know you! It's kind of fuzzy though but I definitely know you! You're master's grumpy friend aren't you? Hi!

[twin_armageddons]

[Sollux had something to say in reply, but it gets lost when suddenly there is some bushy tailed creature in front of him, apparently speaking to him.]

What. Have you been playing Fiduthpawn?

[phazeandblood]

[The little fox just lets out a snicker, bouncing around Sollux's feet as it sniffs him and gets the general feel of him. Karkat shakes his head with an annoyed sigh.]

No, it's something called a Pokemon. His name is Z and he's a Zorua, a little illusionist bastard that drives me up the wall. But he makes a half decent pet when he's not talking at least.

[twin_armageddons]

Okay, and why do you have it? Ith it meant to be thome thort of mini luthuth or thomething?

[phazeandblood]

I've got two of them actually, the other one is just much more tolerable and less on crack.

[Z just snickers, jumping up all the way to land on Sollux's shoulder and then his head, settling happily between his horns and getting a snort from Karkat.]

They're more like pets, the point of them at the time was to battle them against each other and make them grow stronger. This little asshole is still growing, I've been occasionally taking him out to fight the bullshit creatures that spawn here after dark.
