Vanitas, would you fucking like to stop your constant need to squirm around?

Shut up, I need a minute to prepare

[ snort. ] If you tense up, you'll only make this fucking worse for yourself.

[ so, so dry. ] Oh, ha ha, you say that like it's not going to hurt. Give me something to bite. [ a beat. ] Your arm is preferred.

It will only hurt like the human conception of Hell for a few seconds, you big wiggler. If you need something to bite, then use your Vanillish. C'mon, Will. Get over here.

[ there's the thudding of footsteps followed by a low 'Axorrrr' from Will, Karkat's Haxorus. ]

I'm not biting that, it tastes like crap! And it's going to hurt long after you shove it back into place, idiot! Get me something to bite or I'm calling this off.

[ another groan. ] Oh my god. Fine! [ the sound that hits the Gear is Karkat digging through his bag. ] Take my extra shirt, shit for brains.

[ there's a grunt and Karkat starts again: ] On the count of three. One... Two - [ insert pop sound and a roar. ] Three.

FFUCK! [ that's a scream, not a yell. ]

[ And guess who is five seconds from skipping town to find Vanitas because she is that worried, hearing that pop and scream? If you guessed Hikaru, you guessed right. She is already hopping in an attempt to pull her socks on from within her room at the inn. ]

Vanitas-kun! Vanitas-kun, are you okay? Answer me!

[Give him a few minutes to stop puking his soul out.]

..M'fine. Will be fine. Aughh..

You don't sound fine at all! I'm coming over there right now!

[ Or she's going to try to if someone doesn't talk her out of it first, not that she knows where they are. She knows they got through Mt. Mortar, though. That's where she'll start. ]

Just fixing my shoulder. Stay - [OFFSCREEN PUKING SOMEMORE, YEAHHH]

[ Yeaaaaaaah, that is... really going to convince the willful redhead to stay in Goldenrod, Vanitas. Let me tell you. ]

Vanitas-kun?

[ And she's straightening and moving to start stuffing her things in her backpack. A nubby hand briefly passes over the camera. Guess who the cameramon is? ]

Hold tight! I'll be there really soon!

[Sup Mokona, I'm too busy puking over here-] No, don't need to come here. You don't have a flyer anyway so it'd take too long.

I'm not just going to sit here and do nothing, Vanitas-kun! I had to do that during the storm and when that tree fell on Lightning-san and now you're hurt, too! I'm going!

[Sucking in a heavy breath, Vanitas at least manages to get his tone to stop sounding so weak.]

I'm fine. It should heal faster than when I did this before, so stay put! [Also Karkat is giving me a hard time because a girl is so worried about me 8||||]

[ If you didn't go getting your popped out of its socket where I could see it, maybe you wouldn't have a girl worrying about you ~~as much~~. ]

I'm coming there, Vanitas-kun, and nothing you say is going to make me change my mind. I mean it.

You don't even know where I am.

I know you left of Mt. Mortar a few days ago. I'll start there.

Don't you dare go in that cave.

[ And she's zipping her back-pack up. Hear that? That's the sound of determination. ] I'm going.

All this fuss about correcting a shoulder. Goddamn wigglers, all of you.

Correcting a shoulder? That sounded painful!

[ Nevermind that she's got no clue what a wiggler is. She's too worried to really stop and think about it right now. And, you know, hopping on one foot while she pulls her other sock on from within her room at the Goldenrod inn. ]

He didn't have it set right the first time so we had to fucking reset it.

If Vanitas wasn't as stubborn as an oinkbeast, then it could have been healed properly sooner.

An oinkbeast?

[ She shakes her head slightly. ] Are you two going to go to the hospital? Or the Pokémon Center?

Pig, in human vernacular.

[ rubs at his face. ]

I'm going to go there, yeah. He'll be fine as long he doesn't move around so much.

Oh.

[ Well, that's... ] Good. I should be there soon.

[ Despite, you know, not knowing exactly where they are, but hey, she'll figure that out as she goes. ]

I don't need another mouth in this fucking hive to feed. Mind your own business.

My friends are my business! Besides, I can feed myself. I made plenty of money from my part-time job. You won't have to buy anything for me.

What the fuck is your malfunction? This was done on purpose. He's just fucking fine. There's no reason to take off!

By the time you get here, we'll be gone.

So I'm supposed to sit here and do nothing when one of my friends is hurting? You wouldn't do that, would you?

There's no immediate danger! I'm not a fucking Lusus, so no. I wouldn't drop everything to help someone that's already been helped. That's completely redundant!

It's not --
