015 ♑ [fifteenth honk] [video/text.]

[hystericull]

[Gamzee sits in front of the camera. He looks... different. Not just the obvious different that is the huge, stitched up gash across his forehead, either. He's been picking at the sutures there - they're loose and crooked, and the wound has started to reopen a little. All of that prodding and fussing has made the puckered skin around it burn a bright, angry purple - the same color as the bloody gunk seen between the gaps of the stitches.]

[Even though the video is on, he makes no effort to make eye contact, or address the network verbally. Instead, he just looks like he's concentrated on typing, looking down at the keyboard, then back up to the screen, but never moving his eyes up to the camera.]

dId you ever all get your motherfUcKiNg nOtIcE On.
of JUST HOW ALL FUCKIN SILENT THIS WHOLE MOTHERFUCKING PlAcE ReAlLy bE Up aNd At?
SoMeTiMe a BrOtHeR JuSt aLl gOtTa sHuT ThEm lOoKsTuBs and open all up to the noiseless noise his motherfuckin hear ducts.

[He laughs silently, rereading his text. He looks genuinely calm. For a moment. Then, his face falls, and he pecks away at the keyboard a little harder.]

MAYBE YOU ALL WEREN'T NEVER AT FUCKIN HEARING SUCH SHIT WHAT I ALL BE NOW MOST MOTHERFUCKIN BEREFT IN.
maybe you ain't wanna know what i all motherfuckin did.
MAYBE YOU WOULD UP AND BE THINKING I ALL DIDN'T HAVE NO MOTHER FUCKING CHOICE.

MAYBE THE MOTHER FUCKING SCREECHING TORE THE NOISE CANALS UP OUT MY MOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

[As his text distorted, the video would show his face almost pained, twisted up in an expression of anger as his head jerked to the side. Once. Twice. Three times.]

G-g-ghghh... ughh-- F-F-F-F-Fuck--

[... okay, this was just one of those moments where you stared at something and began to realize that 'maybe,' just maybe some of your life choices weren't that wise. Dealings with psychos? Check. Dealings with psychos who might have done brain-rewiring? Check. Larxene'd been fine.

Dealings with psychos whose brain rewiring obviously wasn't taking well?

...]

You know... seeing this has made me re-investigate a few things. Are you certain that the boss-dude's cutting improved your comprehension of the here and now?

[Because? Frankly? You made more sense before, Gamzee.]

...

I ... have no idea what you are saying. Who are you speaking of?

[hystericull]

[He's whispering, like the thing won't hear him. Intelligence.]

The guy in my motherfuckin' nug, bitch. Little square motherfucker, he all is. Don't like it when I get my madness on, mostly.

[true_noir]

...

Should I allow the two of you to have your conversation in peace today?

video;

[pushedaround]

Whoa ...

[ Holy shit!

Tavros didn't know whether he should focus on the camera or in reading the text. Fuck it, he goes straight into questioning the other. Haha, you think by now he's used to this kind of stuff. ]

Bro! What the hell happened to you?!!

[Video.]

[hystericull]

[This, ideally, would not have been the way Gamzee envisioned discussing this issue with his matesprit. However, Tavros had always seemed to be on the network when Gamzee was making an ass of himself.]

[Gamzee took a breath, running his tongue over his crooked teeth before responding.]

I ain't gonna be no motherfuckin' problem no more, brother.

[Video.]

[pushedaround]

[ Not the kind of response he expected. There's shock, confusion and now anger. ]

You were never a problem! Not to me, Gamzee. Never ever been anywhere close to something like that. Shit. Why did you-

... Why did you do this to yourself?

[Video.]

[hystericull]

[Normally, he'd get defensive and yell back. Now the feed just shows him shuddering. His upper lip twitches a few times, and he shakes his head, clearing his throat.]

[Lifting his head, Gamzee stares into the camera. His glare was hard, but knitting his eyebrows together was too painful a feat right now. His displeasure was careful.]

Ain't comfortable discussing such fuckin' particulars of it with the whole motherfuckin' phallus.

[His eyes flick down, then back up.]

Calm the fuck down. Where you at?

[Video.]

[pushedaround]

[ He didn't want to fucking calm down!

He lets out a frustrated sigh, shaking his head slightly before giving in. There is nothing more awkward than sharing this with everyone in the network. If he's going to make an ass of himself, might as well do it in private.

He breathes in again before muttering. ]

Library ....

video/okay, using this account for serious!Rei icons

[nottheonly]

...Are you okay?

[Rei blinks at the sight on the screen.]

You look really badly off.

[Video.]

[hystericull]

[Gamzee blinks back, half-grinning at the sight of her.]

Charm ain't gonna fuckin' be getting your ass nowhere.

I'm f-f-fuckin' fine.

[His twitching was most akin to a CD skipping, face accompanying the stutter with subtle jerks.]

Re: [Video.]

[nottheonly]

People usually aren't very fine when they twitch.

[Video.]

[hystericull]

IT'S A LEAR-R-R-R...!

[He's getting upset that he isn't able to get upset. It's a vicious cycle. Eventually, though, the severe jitters force him to calm down some.]

It's a fucking learning curve. I ain't the most brightest waxy hue stick in the motherfuckin' cardboard containment unit.

[He brings a hand up to rub at his temple gingerly.]

Re: [Video.]

[nottheonly]

What'cha learnin'?

[fiesta_de_los_muertos]

AA: did you cut your thinkpan open?

[Inquiring minds need to know.]

[Video/Text.]

[hystericull]

the bald pink one did on it.
SLICED ME THE FUCK UP ALL LIKE I BBBBBBBbbskgj

[Gamzee takes his hands away from the keyboard, knocking them against the sides of his head gently.]

done just how what i ask.
NOW DON'T THAT MAKE A MOTHERFUCKER GET WANT TO GET HIS PONDER ON?

[fiesta_de_los_muertos]

AA: you wanted this?
AA: why?

[hystericull]

what the shit's with the motherfuckin interrogation.

[He doesn't quite know the answer to that, but you can have fun and watch him try.]

[fiesta_de_los_muertos]

AA: just curious

[She can't imagine why anyone would want to get voluntary brain surgery, but then again she doesn't know Gamzee very well. He might have his reasons.]

*With that, he's not going to sit behind text and make Gamzee type out whatever he wanted to say.*

Are...are you all right?

*It was...not normal, for Jason to start an experiment immediately. But the troll's movements worried him much more, at the moment. That had looked sickeningly wrong. He'd drag Gamzee to Raphael for healing if he had to...*

[Video.]

[hystericull]

[It took him a few minutes to calm down, or at least bring himself to a point where he wasn't flopping like a fish for all to see. And then it took another couple of seconds to realize that he was being responded to. Lifting his head tiredly, Gamzee's sunken eyes stared into an unfamiliar face on the screen.]

Anyone motherfuckin' all right up in this bitch, motherfucker?

[He certainly did not have the same amount of gusto behind his words as he seemed to have had in the beginning of this post.]

[Video.]

[warriorscribe]

To a greater degree than you seem to be. What happened to your head?

[hystericull]

[Gamzee reaches up to trace the swollen gash on his forehead. It hurts like a fucking bitch.]

...Got some stuff fixed.

[warriorscribe]

Fixed...?

*He's not sure if he likes the sound of that.*
