Hey, this is Vriska! I'm ignoring my PCD right now. Leave me a message and if I like you enough, I'll get back to you!

Comments

[combatking]

Thanks. [Smiling at her, then embracing her, he hopes she can't feel the concerned anxious look on his face.]

Can't wait til this shit blows over.

[dicey]

[she leans against him]

Whatever. We're used to this stuff.

[combatking]

Heh, yea. I think that's the best part. I'm just usedta being surrounded by other soldiers y'know? You an' Karkat're pretty formidable, but I kinda worry a lot about Hanna.

[dicey]

Hanna's more formidable than he looks.

[combatking]

Oh good.. 'cause somea the others 'round here..

[dicey]

Yeah.

[she pulls away and heads into the living room, moving some paper-- turned upside-down so whatever's on the other side isn't visible-- and pencil stubs off the couch for Zell]

[combatking]

[Following her in, he's cautious, remembering that one or more of the couches is trapped. Moving cushions around yields none of those dastardly Smiley's, so he sits right down. The pencils and paper hint at a few things.. but..]

Writin' letters?

[dicey]

[she sits down on the opposite end]

They're drawings.

[combatking]

Oh cool, you draw? Ive got some training in it for aidin' perp an' wildlife profiles in case we couldn'tget a picture.

[dicey]

No one ever trained me. I just do it sometimes.

[combatking]

Cool, self taught! [And then funfacts because he feels a lottle on edge.] There's a legend in our world about Sorceresses bringin' their art to life. I wouldn't doubt it, our Matron brought statues to life.

[dicey]

I can't do that.

[combatking]

Me neither, but it's neat.

[Awkwardly scratching at him neck..]

What's up?

[dicey]

[she just raises an eyebrow at Zell]

[combatking]

Yeaaaa I know. Well..

[dicey]

Well what?

[combatking]

Just well as a filler word, I guess. [This is one of those moments where I'm supposed to take the hint and we sit in silence, right?]

[dicey]

I don't even give a fuck about this event. We've had worse.

[combatking]

There may've been worse but this is what's goin' on right now.

[dicey]

I still don't care that much.

[combatking]

Well it's a stupid event. But people are gonna still act on it.

[dicey]

Of course it's stupid. I'm just not going to freak out about it.

[combatking]

Y'know sometimes I wish I had your detachment. I keep gettin' super worried about my human friends.

[dicey]

[she stands up]

Fuck you, Zell. I'm not detached or not worried.

[combatking]

Ugh, I didn't mean it like THAT. I mean being able to quell it.
