What the actual fuck is going on. Here I am, minding my own fucking business on Route Six and bam. Back in goddamn Goldenrod with a shitload of people I want nothing to do with. There's one one good

Karkat!

Gam? When the fuck did you get here?

Uhhh, a couple hours ago? I don't rightly motherfucking know, best friend. Kicking all kinds of wicked confusion up in here.

Just a few hours? I thought everyone had to start from fucking New Bark. Not that I'm not relatively glad to see you, I am.

Now will you be up and telling a brother what's that you've got trailing your heels? No barkbeast these lookstubs of mine be recognizing.
[As he gets closer, Karkat will probably notice Gamzee doesn't look good, in spite of the smile. They had a very rough ten or so hours, and withdrawal sucks.]
Reply
[ yeah, Karkat does notice and gives a pap to Gamzee's cheek. he's going to drag them both to the Center. the Bullet Train can wait.
his glance goes back to Alex for a moment, the guy giving a soft woof ( if it can be called a woof ). ]
Him? That's Alex. One of my "partners" you could say. You don't got one either?

[That pap is a good thing. He tips his head into it, but his arms twitch as he strongly considers going in for a hug. It's been a very stressful and confusing couple hours.]
No beasts up following a brother around, best friend. The only new thing up on my person was these.
[He pulls out some Pokeballs that he hasn't even thought of pressing the buttons for yet.]
Reply
now back to those balls. he snorts. ]
Gamzee, the bests normally reside in those devices. Press the button and see what comes out.
Reply
Then he pulls back and takes a closer look at the balls. Oh, that is a button, isn't it?]
Well, let's crack open these motherfuckers and see what's inside!
[Buttons push! Out pop a Haunter, a Dusknoir, a Mr. Mime, and a Houndoom. The ghosts already look like they're planning on wreaking havoc, but the other two seem friendly enough.]
Whoa.
Reply
which kind of... yeah. that feeling goes away when seeing the ghosts. Karkat does not have good experiences with Ghost Types. he's cringing just a little. ]
Yeah... Let me just...
[ time for Karkat to show off his team. he's got a Crobat, Sneasel, Wartortle, Mightyena, and Ampharos to go with Growlithe. the Sneasel looks like she could potentially be up to no good, but the other five are friendly little buggers. ]
Were you ever here before, man?

Hey now, floatbeast. Don't you be getting up and salty with my moirail's beasts, you hear?
[It doesn't listen, naturally, but he tried?]
Those are motherfucking fine, best friend, but what does a brother up and do with them? And no, if I was here before, all the memories up and dribbled out of my thinkpan.

Seriously, people forget being here all the time. I know you were once, just like I was. Though I don't remember shit about this place either.
[ Crobat isn't having any of this nonsense. while naturally Jolly, she also has had to deal with prankster Gastlies. Josie is going to snap her jaws and chitter at the the ghost.
well, until Karkat paps her on the belly. giant 6ft bat is giant. ]
How are you feeling, though? You look tired as hell.
Reply
[He spends a moment watching the pokemon interact. The Haunter just sticks out his tongue and gives the Crobat the biggest, most offensive raspberry he can manage, while the Dusknoir is slooooooowly maneuvering behind Karkat. Mr. Mime is miming hello to everyone and the Houndoom is trying to get the Growlithe and Mightyena to play.]
Not so good. I feel sick. My head motherfucking hurts and--
[He trails off, not wanting to worry Karkat with just how awful he currently feels.]
Reply
as for Karkat, he's shaking his head. nope. that's not how this will work. ]
We'll walk to the Center. At least there you can sit down and shit. Or I can go rent a block for the time we're here, if that'd be better.
Reply
Try it, motherfucker. No one touches my moirail.
[Dusknoir does back down, but mostly because the surprise is ruined. Houndoom is just a big, derpy puppy so yay~ playtime!! Haunter is making more faces to tease Josie. And Gamzee relaxes, satisfied that the threat to Karkat is temporarily dealt with.]
And I'm down with whatever you motherfucking want, Karkat. You've got all the knowledge banging up in that think pan, so lead a brother like you're so good at.
Reply
[ here he is again, with hands on Gamzee. it's all right. the Pokebeast isn't going to really hurt Karkat anyway. ]
Well then let's put these guys away and hunt down a place.
