Third Eigh8all [Video/Action Goldenrod]

[8etterl8]

Oh hey, is this thing working? Oh Good.

[The camera comes on to Vriska's face for a second before turning to the road in front of her.]

So I got myself a couple more of these Pokémon since I last posted on here when I got Marquise.

[Grabbing a Pokéball she lets out the creature inside. A Magikarp flops on the ground.]This is Camer-- Tavros you

[John saw the video, but it wasn't until much later that he finally sent Vriska a text. He spent some time debating on whether or not he should call or use video or text and once he finally decided to go with text (being too nervous to actually say anything, at least at first) he then had to debate on what to actually type. And that was even harder.]

hey.
so...i'm back now.
you know, if you still want to talk.

[It took her a few minutes to respond as well, after her talk with Rose.]

Yeah, talking would still 8e good.
Just finished talking with your girlfriend not that long ago.

[8etterl8]

Of course!
Why wouldn't it 8e?
Just some girl talk, that's all!

Aaaaaaaanyway, did you give some thought to what I asked?

[No need for him to know they were talking about him and this whole predicament.]

Weeeeeeeell????????

I mean.........
Are there any questions you have?
I guess if Karkat didn't ram8le your ear off on the su8ject of quadrants it might 8e a 8it unclear.
May8e I can clear some things up for you.

[That was a good start, right?]

[usedwindything]

that would help, yes.
rose tried to explain it to me on the way back.
but she's...not a troll.
even if she was karkat's moirail it's still not really the same hearing it from her as it would be from you or karkat or any of the other trolls.
so i guess just...what do you expect of me?

[8etterl8]

Well as my Moirail, I would come to you when I'm angry or upset.
You'd 8e expected to calm me down, talk me down, stop me from doing stupid shit.
Not that I often do stupid shit.
Okay, that miiiiiiiight 8e a lie.
I think I do a lot more idiotic things than I like to admit.
8ut I feel like I can talk to you a8out these things.
You won't really judge me like the others would.

[usedwindything]

i see.
uh...okay.
this isn't going to work over text.
i thought it would. but it's not.
would you mind if i come see you?

[He's scared and isn't crazy about having this talk face to face, but he just really cannot say what he needs to through text.]

[8etterl8]

[She's not crazy about it either. This is hard enough as it is.]

Sure.
I'm at the Pokémon Center, downstairs.
Had to heal up after Strider.

[usedwindything]

ok.
i'll be there in a minute.

[And sure enough, about two or three minute later, he's walking through the door of the pokémon center, looking around for a sign of the former troll. For once, he's completely alone. The last thing he needs in this situation is an over-excitable bipedal bunny trying to hug both of them.]

text ==> action;

[8etterl8]

[She's half watching the doors, half scowling at the floor, but she happens to look up when John comes in. Part of her considers, turning away and walking upstairs, so she can avoid this forever. But she realizes that's stupidly ridiculous. She needs to stop being a cluckbeast is what.

So she waves after a second, putting on the tiniest hint of a smirk.]

Over here!

action;

[usedwindything]

[Awkward though this is, he can't help but smile a bit when he catches sight of her. He walks over, hands in his pockets and stops in front of her. And...then realizes that he's not sure what to say now that he's actually here. He glances around the center. This really isn't the environment that he had in mind for this...]

Do...you want to go outside?

action;

[8etterl8]

[She glances around as well, thinking the same thing.]

Yeah, outside is probably better. Too stuffy in here.

action;

[usedwindything]

Way too stuffy. [He takes maybe three steps towards the door before stopping to make sure that she's following him.]

action;

[8etterl8]

[She is following him, and even walks past him, kind of bumping his shoulder as she does and giving him a bit of smile.]

Well, what are you waiting for, huh?
