( text ) Karkat: Turn stupid joke into game canon

[yourgoddamnit]

-- carcinoGeneticist [CG] RIGHT NOW opened memo on board THE DISCO HELL --

CG: I HAVE GOOD NEWS AND BAD NEWS FOR ALL THE HOSTAGE VICTIMS ACROSS THIS NOT SO GLORIOUS LAND.
CG: THE MONSTER ISN'T AN INDESTRUCTIBLE AND FRANKLY TERRIFYING FORCE FROM A UNIVERSE I'M FAMILIAR WITH.
CG: WELL IT CAUSED COLOSSAL DESTRUCTION TO MY UNIVERSE TOO BUT THAT'S A LONG STORY.
CG: IT'S JUST A NORMAL VICIOUS MONSTER.
CG: THE BAD NEWS IS YOU'RE STILL FUCKED BECAUSE IT IS ONE TOUGH BEAST.
CG: ON THAT SUBJECT
CG: IN A HYPOTHETICAL SITUATION
CG: WHERE MIGHT I FIND BANDAGES/STITCHES/MEDICAL SUPPLIES AND SHELTER WITHOUT BEING SEEN BY A SINGLE SOUL?
CG: IF I HYPOTHETICALLY HAD TO BE SEEN I WOULD HYPOTHETICALLY RATHER BLEED TO DEATH AND WAIT TO COME BACK.
CG: I ALSO HYPOTHETICALLY ACQUIRED A TALKING FLIPPERBEAST.
CG: WAIT THAT'S A LIE THAT'S NOT HYPOTHETICAL AT ALL.
CG: I FOUND A FUCKING TALKING PENGUIN.
CG: IT KEEPS A SAYING "DOOD."
CG: HE'S ANNOYING AS ALL HELL BUT HE IS MINE. I HAVE NAMED HIM BENFROMLOST. I'M NOT SURE WHY.
CG: I DON'T HAVE PSYCHIC COMMUNING SKILLS AND YET I FEEL AS THOUGH THIS WAS MEANT TO BE.
CG: SOMETHING RIGHT IN THE UNIVERSE HAS JUST OCCURRED.
CG: I'M BOTH ENRAGED AND CONTENT.
CG: THIS IS A STRANGE MIXTURE OF EMOTIONS.
CG: I WOULD LIKE SOMEONE TO GIVE ADVICE ON MY HYPOTHETICAL SITUATION BEFORE I HYPOTHETICALLY DIE AND HYPOTHETICALLY HAVE TO GO ON A QUEST TO RETRIEVE BENFROMLOST AFTER MY REVIVAL.
CG: OR WORSE, CREATE A PARADOX TIME LINE IN WHICH I'M ALIVE, THEREBY CREATING ANOTHER ME.
CG: NO ONE WANTS THAT. NO ONE. ESPECIALLY NOT ME.

[ He'll probably boil like a crab and end up even angrier. Also tasty.

SCOWLING RIGHT BACK. ]

[asideglance.livejournal.com]

[...

wow eventually just. moves to clean up whatever Karkat shoved off the table.]

[yourgoddamnit.livejournal.com]

[ you are a confusing creature Japan, doing nice things for Karkat for no reason. he doesn't know whether he should hate you or form an alliance with you or some terrible combination thereof. ]

[asideglance.livejournal.com]

I am cleaning..

[glancing up at Karkat while picking up stuff. who even knows what Japan is. I don't.]

If there are any further questions along the line, or if assistance is required, do not hesitate to ask.

[yourgoddamnit.livejournal.com]

[ FACEPALM COMBO X2! ]

[asideglance.livejournal.com]

[slowly stands. and. TRASH + SINK IDK just gets rid of the stuff he was cleaning up yes]

... I do not understand what is so strange about what I have been doing.. Ah, but, I do not mean to anger anyone, and pity is not necessary, so..

I can simply leave.

[yourgoddamnit.livejournal.com]

[ Now he just looks tired. So tired. He hasn't slept in all the time he's been in Discedo. Actually, he hasn't slept since he passed out god-knows-how-long-ago in the Veil.

And he doesn't want to. ]

[asideglance.livejournal.com]

Ah... "Trolling?"

[But he just glances around, and then stares back at Karkat. This is making up for earlier. Such a weird looking... thing. But oddly cute if you stare long enough. Still so angry. And.. apparently tired.

But Japan feels if he mentions this, it would be bad. So he just frowns some more.]

[yourgoddamnit.livejournal.com]

[ WISE CHOICE JAPAN. Everything pisses off Karkat, but at least asking about sleep would get a straightforward (and irritated) answer. He starts rubbing his temples. ]

[asideglance.livejournal.com]

I see...

[Japan briefly wonders what country-ing would be. Anyway.]

I suppose I will leave you. [to rest, is implied!!! IMPLIED!!!

but anyway he's glancing down at his own bandages. they probably. need to be. redone. yes.]

Ah, are you finished with my two kits, then?

[yourgoddamnit.livejournal.com]

[ KARKAT WILL NEVER SLEEP!!!!!! or maybe he will idk how long he can really go without sleeping. ]



[ That single "thanks" pretty much covers everything, Karkat thinks. ]

[asideglance.livejournal.com]

[wow trollman sleep.... Japan is staring at him. willing him to sleep. WILLING...

okay but really that thanks is more than some people give him, so it's nice enough.]

It was no trouble. ...Until next time, CG-san.

[yourgoddamnit.livejournal.com]

[asideglance.livejournal.com]

Ah, that is a term of respect in my language. ...I suppose, it is most similar to "Mister"... though it is not exactly the same.

[yourgoddamnit.livejournal.com]

[ It's as close to a term of endearment as he can get, okay. Karkat doesn't smile, but his face is a calmer, more neutral expression. Close enough. ]

[asideglance.livejournal.com]

[STARES AT. Japan does not understand. What. Is -san insulting. WH...... but that face isn't as scowly. WHAT...]

Ah.... [stare.................. turns]

U-until next time then!
