dicey | ☣ 019 | video/action for anyone taking shelter in Castiel and Jo's fortified basement

[here's Vriska sitting in some corner somewhere, surrounded by pencil drawings she's been doing to pass the time-- most are of herself dressed up as a pirate, but there are some of randoms sigels that she copied from the ones painted on the walls of the basement (she has no idea of their significance, but she thinks they look cool), and a couple abstract-y ones that look a bit like lightning bolts]

So check it out-- I was going to write up a whole guide for you guys! That's right: What To Do When Your Planet Is Being Destroyed By Fire And Shit Raining Down From The Sky, by Vriska Serket. I think I wrote up about half of it after I found out that the Animus were serious about trying to kill all of us, but that was before it turned out that they were actually incredibly bad at it!

So anyway, change of plans. No more guide, but I'm still going to be incredibly magnanimous and offer up all the advice. Sure, maybe the fix we used to escape the meteors back on Alternia isn't really something that can apply here, but I'm still a huuuuuuuuge expert on surviving situations that go shithive maggots. Or just surviving in general.

Just try not to pile on too many questions at one time-- I'm sure you're all dying to hear my suggestions, but I ain't got all day! In addition to making some decorations for whenever I get back to my hive, I have a pretty sweet magic pot to cary stuff in, so I've actually been extremely busy collecting supplies! I've been doing water runs. Through the fire outside. And I haven't been seriously injured even once.

Yeah!

You're not even all better furom the last time you got into a fight you couldn't handle!

Who says I couldn't handle it?

Okay okay you could handle it fine and it was just a fluke that you got hurt, okay??

Just don't get into more trouble purrlease.

What are you, my lusus?

No, I'm your furrend.

Ohhhhhhhh Nepeta, guess what I'm doing right now. Guess!

I'm not guessing beclaws it's purrobably something mean or awful.

I'm going towards the door! I'm going to open it and stick my arm out! Oh noooooooo, what if I get burned?

Go ahead, it's your arm.

But I'm telling Equius not to fix it or make you a new one if you damage it that way.

What happened to "don't get hurt"?

You're the one who's being stupid about it! I don't want you to get into trouble but of couuurse you take it all the wrong way and turn it into some kind of game! You're my furrend and I'll help you if you need it but if you think it's funny to do that on purpose I'm not going to do anything about it. So there. You have to learn not to play with people like that, Vriska!

You are so boring. Borey-borey-boring.

Beclaws you can't get me to do what you want? Then yes I'm furry furry boring.

I bet I could if I reeeeeeeeally wanted to.

Yes, you'd purrobably think of some way to, but not now, okay?? Things are crazy enough already!!

I know! I never said I was going to do anything. I'm just saying that I could.

I need to go and see if there's anything else I can do to make the hive safe fur now.

You're just in your regular hive?

We didn't have anywhere else to go. It has a basement!

Basements are veeeeeeeery useful. And I'm in the best one in the city!

Good, good, then you'll be safe there.

Duh! I have connections.

[responding to an open invitation for shelter from people you've talked to a few times doesn't count as "having connections", Vriska]
