011 ♑ [eleventh honk/video]

Content Warning: Thread with Tavros got smutty I really can't believe I'm putting this right in the OP but the general public has a right to be warned.

[The feed clicks on, revealing an extremely wide, extremely frantic purple eye.]

[After a few seconds, the features surrounding said eye come into view, as the operator of the video backs up. And backs up a little more.]

[It's a gargantuan troll. Everything about him looks like it's been blown well out of reasonable proportion. His shoulders took up the width of the screen, and the way he hunched over couldn't have been anything but uncomfortable. His face was painted up like a monotone clown - all dark smudges against stark white. The design hadn't changed much in the sweeps he'd spent here. What was your face was your face, no matter how you felt about it. The paint was what he was born with, the design was a part of him - one thing in life that couldn't be done on a whim.]

[Most of that face, however, was obscured by the most absurd mane of hair imaginable. It exploded from his head in a mass of mats and twists and curls, getting in his eyes and mouth before running down his neck and past his shoulders. It was reminiscent of vines taking over a building - crawling up and threatening to engulf the two massive, spiraling horns that sprouted from his head.]

[For being as giant as he was, Gamzee had been lacking in the brute strength department - a solitary physical trait he failed to inherit from his ancestor. His limbs and neck were thick, but not as thick as they could or should be. His hands rivaled the size of dinner plates, but the fingers on them remained knuckles and spindle.]

[Now that both manic eyes were visible, as well as a decent amount of the rest of him, Gamzee's dark lips parted to speak, revealing terribly sharp and terribly disgusting fangs. Plucking a vial of dark purple liquid from his pants pocket, he held it up to the camera.]


All you magnanimous motherfuckers, please to be all popping the most righteous of motherfuckin' squats at the terminal and start bestowing on to your wicked brother all what's knowledge holy you up and got in those inferior thinkpans 'bout the matter what all is at being your mother fucking blood.

LET'S SEE, SHALL WE? WHAT COULD POSSIBLY BE SOMETHING THAT GETS KARKAT VANTAS THIS IRRITABLE ANYMORE THAT CONCERNS HIS MOIRAIL?

GEE! I WONDER IF IT HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE SHIT HEAD THAT HAS FANGS AND GLOWS!

[ just sighing. all defeated. ]

God. Whatever. Do what fucking ever.

[ he's still pretty mad. like... really mad. TEN YEARS AND HE STILL CAN'T BE TRUSTED BY HIS OWN MOIRAIL TO KNOW THINGS. 8( ]

[Video; private]

[ THIS SHIT ISN'T TRIVIAL! ]

Don't you fucking get it? You're one of the only grubfuckers I have, dumbass. I overlook your murdermirth. Not happy, but can deal with the nuances of some of your friendships.

You know I'm not going to get all up and fucking preachy at you. Realized that doesn't work. But I'd still like to be trusted enough to know when things go down that you mothefucking know will make me worry!

[Video, not private because welp.]

[ Karkat is just beating the ever loving crap out of punching bag. this is how he deals with shit now. or, at least, the stuff that just never really goes away. there's no regular strifing with a Lusus, so he finds this is a good method of stress relief while also keeping in shape.

it's just this time it's coupled with swearing and maybe some tears. hadn't even bothered to wrap his hands this time. ]

[ yeah... because 'a little bit' is more like enough space for Karkat to be dangling like a foot to two feet in the air.

it's a little awkward, yes. because now his cheeks are burning and so are his knuckles. yeah, he knows that he can stop punching it now. but Karkat doesn't entirely want to. because beating something is a lot easier than just having to face the problem that just always seems to bubble under the surface. where he kind of has to pretend that he doesn't really have an idea what's going on, but understands enough that it kind of hurts. ]


It's an inanimate object, Gamzee. The sole purpose of this thing is to be wailed upon.

[ that makes Karkat laugh. dry. humorless. ]

Can't. Never could. Probably part of the fucking problem.

[ Karkat... punching Gamzee. intentionally. yeah, that's never likely to happen. ]

The problem of you not talking to me? Not even really fucking noticing how it kills me to just let shit go because I don't have the goddamn globes to do anything?

[personal profile] papshooshing 2013-01-16 06:24 am (UTC)(link)
[ GAH. why is everything forever complicated!? Karkat rubs at his eyes. hiding evidence? yeah. it's not like he can exactly look at Gamzee's face just yet. it's hard and absently his brain tells him that he really needs to put something on his knuckles before they swell and/or get infected. ]

That's not... I mean I don't need to know every fucking detail. Though you know what? I wouldn't mind if you did have a serious case of word vomit.

[ shoulders sag a little as he runs a hand down his face. ]

Just... I'm just tired of acting like there's no fucking issue here. Exhausted from worrying and playing this shitty ignorance game. I'm your moirail. Supposed to make sure you're okay and not off getting yourself or others hurt. You're not letting me completely in, dumbass.

It's not that you don't tell me... It's that you purposely fucking hide it from me.

[ Karkat knows this move too. he's done it himself plenty of times. either not having a response to something said or not wanting to reflect upon it means that a redirect is needed. it's how he's dealt with insecurities and people calling him out on shit up until growing out of it. mostly. ]

I'll take care of it later.

[ just going to tug his hand back now. ]
