[Vriska's PCD is filming from the front lawn of Athel House! she doesn't exactly treat it with the utmost care, and so it just kind of got... tossed there when she was bored with it; she'd planned to retrieve it when she felt like using it again]

[Vriska can be seen exiting the house this fine morning (yes, trolls are nocturnal, but a) she's halfway adjusted to the sleep schedule of the rest of the city by now, and b) she's a kid, so staying up all day still strikes her as a cool and novel idea)-- and thanks to where she left her PCD last night, everyone is getting a great view of a big glop of rabbit guts falling off the roof and right onto her head]

[because, as it happens, the entire roof is covered with rabbit guts]

[Killuaaaaaaaa o9]

[OOC: Anyone that's told me here that they don't mind Vriska's typing quirk will be getting her hiding behind text. If you reply to this and don't mind text responses, please let me know via that link! ♥]

If I had a crush on someone, sure, why not?

[capuletnomore]

And have you a crush on someone?

[Only slightly teasing. She saw that conversation with Hawke on the network, though she has said nothing of it, and figures it is only fair to tease a little for giving him a hard time.]

[eightshoutpoles.livejournal.com]

I don't even know anymore.

[capuletnomore]

Thing will work out, Vriska. Do not fret over romances.

[She needs to learn to take her own advice.]

[eightshoutpoles.livejournal.com]

Not having to deal with Imperial drones doesn't mean the drive to fill our quadrants just goes away, though.

[capuletnomore]

That may be true, but you have the time to consider carefully how best to fill them. It needs not be rushed.

[eightshoutpoles.livejournal.com]

You know I can always break up with someone, right?

[capuletnomore]

[She nods.]

[eightshoutpoles.livejournal.com]

So it's no big deal!

[several hours later]

[eightshoutpoles.livejournal.com]

So I guess I'm dating him!

[capuletnomore]

[Blink.]

You are dating Equius? Are you pleased with this, Vriska?

[Because she wants to be happy for a romance, if the other woman is happy. She's having trouble hiding a smile. Even if it is one of the hate-romances, it is still a romance.]

[eightshoutpoles.livejournal.com]

Sure, I guess! He's a good kisser and he's a total asshole, so...

[capuletnomore]

[Now, she smiles.]

Then I am very happy for you.

[Although....]

Is that a good thing? That he is a...?

[Now that she's not freaking out, saying such words is more of a problem for her, even if she's become used to hearing them from Vriska.]

[eightshoutpoles.livejournal.com]

Of course! It makes him easier to dislike.

[capuletnomore]

Ah, I see now. Given which of your quadrants he fills, that would make sense.

[eightshoutpoles.livejournal.com]

He's really ugly, too. And gross! You should see how much he sweats.

[capuletnomore]

I...I will trust your word, Vriska.

[eightshoutpoles.livejournal.com]

Good! You probably shouldn't ever try to talk to him or anything.

[capuletnomore]

[Now, she'll tease.]

Ah, but you have spoken with my lover. I may not speak with yours?

[eightshoutpoles.livejournal.com]

He doesn't like humans. And he's manipulative and controlling, because he's a blueblood like me!





I mean. He could decide to kill you or something, I don't know.

[capuletnomore]

Why does he dislike humans? Have humans harmed him in the past? It must make living here difficult.

[Her eyes widen.]

Kill me? For what reason would he do that?

[eightshoutpoles.livejournal.com]

He proooooooobably wouldn't, but he might! If you pissed him off, or if he wanted to piss me off, or... something.

He's really into this thing called the hemospectrum, which is the blood color-based cast system on Alternia. Bluebloods are pretty high, and so he thinks he's better than everyone else below him. And he thinks humans are even lower than the lowest-blooded trolls.

[capuletnomore]

[She thinks about this a moment.]

Meaning, if he knew we were friends, then he might wish to kill me to deepen your feelings of hatred toward him?

[Here is where troll romance makes little sense to her. Though she is certain that Tybalt would understand it better than she.]

That sort of thinking may serve him well on Alternia, but in Adstringendum, I imagine it makes things more difficult for him.

[eightshoutpoles.livejournal.com]

He said he was just kidding about trying to Jo and Morgana, but you know, this is what trolls do! Especially highbloods like us. This one... uh, historical figure? Her kismesis killed someone she had red interest in, even though that was a totally different quadrant!

[capuletnomore]

I shall think of them much like my cousins, then. More extreme versions of my cousins.

[Because she has no doubt that, were he able, Tybalt would attempt something like that.]

I hope that your Equius does not decide to prove his feelings in such a manner, though. Surely there are other ways to express such passionate hatred.
