[ it starts like your standard vlog entry, camera facing straight ahead and-wow, he looks exhausted. more so than usual, which is a feat when previously you have gone weeks upon weeks without sleep, but there you go. it's an emotional exhaustion, and you can tell by how long it takes him to start speaking after the video begins that this is hard to

[Huh. Lux has to double check the number for a second, because this was not what she was picturing when he said "troll". He's younger than she expected, too. That, plus how horrible he looks, makes her decide to give him another chance.]

A friend of yours?

[That's a dumb question. Why would he care otherwise?]

Are you okay?

[allies]

I'm great. Never been better. [ hope you like SARCASM, lux. ] Have you found a way to leave yet?

[spellthiefs]

[Sarcasm is pretty lame, actually. But she's not going to push it.]

No, not yet. But when we leave, we just... Wake up, right? Isn't that better than being trapped here?

[allies]

If I could actually wake up that would be fucking fine and I wouldn't care.

[rainbowpalette]

[Oh, no.]

Do you want me to come over, Karkat?

[audio]

[allies]

Fuck no.

[ yes. ]

[audio] to [action]

[rainbowpalette]

Well, that's too bad, because I'm coming over anyway.

[And with that, she hangs up her Dreamberry and sets off, closing the distance between her hive and Karkat's rather quickly. Knock knock knock on your door!]

Karkat? Let me in, please.

[action]

[allies]

[ he probably should have known she'd be on her way, regardless of what he said.

he opens the door, because he's hardly the type to turn his own friends away. not even the most fussy or meddly of them. ]

Kanaya.

[Lloyd hasn't known very many people who've left Somarium. Heard of people leaving, yes, but actually known them himself? Hardly ever. So hearing this has completely caught him by surprise. He didn't know her well, but still.]

Terezi's gone? You mean... gone back home?

[allies]

Yes, you clotless shithead. She's gone.

I didn't even know you knew her.

[redcladidealist]

[You know, maybe another time Lloyd would be annoyed at what Karkat just called him, but in this context...

He's just going to assume Karkat's hurting.]

A little. We talked a couple times. She even came by to talk to me after Eridan and I got in that fight. She was... kind of nice.

[And cool. Seriously, her adoptive mother was a dragon.]

...I'm sorry.

[allies]

She was better than nice, considering her blood color and what she could have done with it.

... But thanks. Not that it helps at all.

[ he's running out of quadrants to disappear. next will be eridan.

hopefully. ]

[forevveraglub]

Oh, how unfortunate.

[NO PITY HERE.]

[allies]

[ oh good just who he wanted to talk to right now ]

Laugh it up, shitsack. I'm so far out of the mood it might as well be in another paradox space.

[forevveraglub]

[Hey who better to comfort you than your kismesis! If anything, Karkat could always punch the shit outta him.]

You say this as if I'm suppose to giwe a fuck. Sorry, Kar, the only one who pities such a fuckin' waste a life just left.

[allies]

[ hope you're not expecting a fight here, eridan. ]

You're right. The only one who pitied me is gone.

[arachnida]

[Squint...ing. Who is she going to annoy the ever living hell out of now?

Well, besides everyone.]

Wow, lame.

[video]

[allies]

You must be thrilled.

[video]

[arachnida]

Haha, weeeeeeeell, I guess if it was gonna be anyone, it was gonna be her!

[video]

[allies]

It would have been better if it was you.
