[ this would be the Gear clicking on. pure audio, but the distinct press of buttons with clear sounds of irritation ( grunting, muttered curses ) can be heard over the feed. ]

The fuck does this shit even work...

[And then there’s the distinct sound of someone else, a haughty HUFF before:]

Who the fuck cares, Kar? Let’s just get goin’ already, I hardly want to wait around while you futz with that infernal dewice.

[ hear that? it’s an irritable sigh. ]

Fuck you, Ampora. If you’d actually use your goddamn think pan for two seconds instead of just doing whatever the taintchafing fuck you want, then maybe you’d realize that we need to get information before blindly jumping into the clusterfuck that is this shithole!

Besides. The map says you’re going the wrong fucking way. Great navigational skills you have there, genius.

[Oops a snarl!]

Fuck your map and fuck whoewer you’re tryin’ to contact, we don’t need their help! Not to mention, if they’re the same as the ones in this tiny as fuck town we’re in, they’re HUMANS. Are you honestly goin’ to ask some fuckin’ sandsuckin’ HUMANS for help Kar? Thought you had more pride in bein’ a troll than that.

Guess I was wrong.

[ a hard clunk as the Gear hits the ground. sounds like someone threw it and there’s a rustle of fabric as Karkat is grabbing Eridan by the scarf. ]

If we’re here, fuckass, then the other members of our team could be too! Are they not worthy of trying to fucking contact either, grubtard? If I recall, you were the one practically begging me on your hands and fucking knees about traveling together in the first place.

[There’s a twin to that rustle of clothes as Eridan mirrors the gesture to Karkat’s own shirt, because fuck this, he’s not gonna let Karkat put his hands all over his clothes with some sort of retaliation!]

First off, get your grubby fuckin’ mits off my scarf! But second off, sure whatewer they MIGHT be here. And if they aren’t? We got a bunch a fuckin’ humans thinkin’ we’re some pathetic helpless species needin’ their help and guidance, fuck that and fuck you! I HARDLY did anythin’ so dramatic, dirtscrapper!

Eridan, you are the very essence of dramatic, you cape wearing douchebag. And so what if they’re humans? We’ve been fucking relying on humans ever since -

[ and he cuts himself off. ]

That shit was on, you know.

What? What was on?

[ in that moment Karkat lets Eridan go and picks up the Gear. have some noise while he waves it on. ]

It’s on you raving brinesucker!

Oh. [This is said very flatly with unamused realization.]

Well, turn it the fuck off, you stupid fuck!

What the hell are you calling me stupid for!? You’re the one that was so fucking insistent on me paying attention to you and your fin faced needs!

[ BUT HE TURNS IT OFF ANYWAY ]

...Something you might not have lived through yet, come to think of it. Fuck, is there anyone here that corresponds to my point in time?

[audio]

[p2iioniichacker.livejournal.com]

I don't know, I think I was the furthest one along. So if you're really from farther ahead, then... I guess you're alone.

[audio]

[homofuckiens.livejournal.com]

So you know nothing of Terezi putting down Vriska for good or Kanaya and her rainbow drinking self?

[audio]

[p2iioniichacker.livejournal.com]

I knew about Kanaya, you told me one of the times you were here.

...Are you serious about TZ and Vriska?

[audio]

[homofuckiens.livejournal.com]

Bloodied cane sword thing and a dead, bleeding body don't lie, man.

[audio]

[p2iioniichacker.livejournal.com]

...Oh. [he's not really sure what to think about that. at all.]

TZ's okay though, right?

[audio]

[homofuckiens.livejournal.com]

Obviously. It's pretty just you, Terezi, Gamzee, Kanya, Aradia, and me now.

[audio]

[p2iioniichacker.livejournal.com]

What happened to Equius and Nepeta?

[audio]

[homofuckiens.livejournal.com]

[ the feed goes quiet for a moment. ]

Are you really going to make me fucking say it?

[audio]

[p2iioniichacker.livejournal.com]

...No. Sorry KK.

I just... hadn't heard about them yet.

[audio]

[homofuckiens.livejournal.com]

I'm not exactly thrilled about it.

[audio]

[p2iioniichacker.livejournal.com]

[long pause]

Sorry for asking. I just didn't know.

[audio]

[homofuckiens.livejournal.com]

No, man. It's just probably my fault. That's all.

[audio]

[p2iioniichacker.livejournal.com]

It's not your fault, you can't control the fact that everyone else decided to go crazy.

[audio]

[homofuckiens.livejournal.com]

That only holds for Gamzee and Eridan. The rest? I should have kept a better eye on everyone instead of flipping my shit.

[audio]

[p2iioniichacker.livejournal.com]

It's still not your fault though with how everyone is. It's probably someone else's fault. [not saying who that someone is though. although it's probably obvious here.]

[audio]

[homofuckiens.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah? Who?

[ clueless, man. ]

[audio]

[p2iioniichacker.livejournal.com]

Mine? I don't see why it wouldn't be.

[audio]

[homofuckiens.livejournal.com]

You didn't press the button, bulge biter.

[audio]

[p2iioniichacker.livejournal.com]

And you aren't the one that started this whole mess in the first place.

[audio]

[homofuckiens.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I am.

[audio]

[p2iioniichacker.livejournal.com]

No, you aren't, I'm the one that made the game.

[audio]

[homofuckiens.livejournal.com]

But I'm the one that started playing first, idiot.

[audio]

[p2iioniichacker.livejournal.com]

Which you couldn't have done without me! So if we're doing this it's all my fault. So you should just stop now, KK. Seriously.

[audio]

[homofuckiens.livejournal.com]

You fucking told me not to and I did anyway!
