[> Karkat spent the last few days being a very productive Troll. By which I mean, Karkat has spent the week bouncing between UNIMAGINABLY FURIOUS, RIDICULOUSLY SAD, and just generally REALLY MISERABLE. He is only now finally deciding to actually use this "phone" whatsits and reach out to all these humans.Alright, first of all, I am going to take a

Troll?

Hey, hey, do you know a girl named Feferi?

[kinda_crabby]

[> Be UTTERLY APPALLED but NAIVELY HOPEFUL at the possible reason behind that question!]

WHAT?! How the fuck do you know that name?!

[thirdeyeclosed]

Feferi was here a few of months ago! She didn't last long, though; she got stuck as one of the creepy drone people after a couple of weeks.

[kinda_crabby]

What the Hell do you mean Feferi was here months ago? Is this some weird human-based month, because where I'm from it's a lot longer than "never".

[thirdeyeclosed]

'Course it's a human-based month. Most of the people here are human, aren't they?

But like I said, she wasn't here for long, so maybe you just lost track of her for a while?

[kinda_crabby]

I didn't lose track of her! She was over on the pile of horns the entire ti--

Oh. Oh gog. Time shenanigans. ALWAYS FUCKING TIME SHENANIGANS.

[thirdeyeclosed]

... Time shenanigans? What are you talking about?

[kinda_crabby]

I'm not even going to get into it. I'll just accept it as the answer and not think any more about it and certainly not try to explain it to anyone else. I HATE time shenanigans.

[thirdeyeclosed]

... Okay then. [Yep, it's really not that hard to change the subject with this girl.]

So are you and Feferi friends, or what?

[kinda_crabby]

No, I'm not doing this. I am not talking about her.

[thirdeyeclosed]

Huh? Why not?

[kinda_crabby]

I don't need to fucking tell you "why not". I said I'm not talking to you about her and that's that, so suck it.

[thirdeyeclosed]

... Did something happen to her?

[YOU CAN'T HIDE THINGS FROM A MINDREADER, KARKAT. She'll find out eventually!]

[kinda_crabby]

WHAT PART OF I'M NOT GOING TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT HER DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND?

[thirdeyeclosed]

Okay, fine! Geez, you don't have to yell.

[kinda_crabby]

Why do people that refuse to listen until someone yells always whip out the "you don't have to yell" response when someone finally yells at them? If you don't want people to yell at you, then listen to them when they're not yelling. Not hard!
