He wasn't even sure why he decided to stake out at some broken down old place, really he had originally just followed the two crowbros there and decided to hang out for a few days. And after a while with the birds, part of him is pretty damn sure they're Russian. That thought alone is enough for him to realize that it might be about time he starts talking to normal people more and lay off the feathery assholes for a while.

So when he heard the movement from downstairs he waited for a while, seeing if whoever it was planned to just snoop around a bit and bail or if there was some other reason. Because really, who else would come to a place like this? When he goes down to investigate though, somehow he's not surprised at who he finds.

"Sup."

Dave was currently lying on the bed, fiddling with a radio that didn't seem to get any signal. He hadn't figured that TV wouldn't work, so now he was just stuck with himself, trying to keep himself occupied. It seemed like all technology was completely defunct. He was getting anxious because of the lack of technology. Only now did he realize how much his life had revolved around technology before.

"Sup. You followed me here?"

Dave wasn't startled to see him either. After all, he is one of his favorite people, if not his favorite person. He was a bird for sore eyes, as egotistical as that was.

"Don't think it works that way bro."

He couldn't quite bring himself to say that if things worked normally around here he should technically be like in Jade's pocket or something, but he's not sure if this coolkid is ready for serious shit like that. He's just glad Dave didn't have to see him the way Jack left him. This place was good for that at least, free magical medical treatment and all that.

"This place pulls us from different points in the timeline. So what's the last you remember?"

"Rose trapped me in Derse."

That was literally the last thing he had remembered. At first, he thought this was part of the weird dream sequence. He's still not completely sure that it's not. He's confused about what's real and what's not, that much was to be expected. Even though it wasn't written on his face, he was almost sure that his sprite self could tell what he was thinking, or at least his mood.

It's easy enough to read him, to see right through him. Just like looking in a mirror of the past after all.

"I was in Jade's hands, along with all the other plants she was holding. When she hit God Tier, she combined with her spriteself and shrunk down all of our planets so she could take them with. It was pretty awesome to see."

He wasn't going to add in the thoughts on the matter, they were inconsequential really when it all came down to it anyways.

"Woke up fully healed in this place, had a few chats, slammed with Makara and have been chillin with Russian crows since then."

Dave decided he just wasn't going to ask about that other stuff. Not right now. It wasn't worth trying to figure out and piece together things together in his head when there was so much information missing. Instead, he focused on the other events.

"Wait. Isn't that the stupid clown? He attacked me like a fat dude to a turkey on Christmas. Oh shit, is that offensive to you? Sorry, man."

He was still bruised up over it. That conversation with the ICP worshiper had ended up pretty strangely.

He didn't even try to hide that small quirk of amusement at hearing that. Probably his fault technically, but Dave can take it.

"Yeah, that's him. Gamzee Makarka. He's pretty pissed over the whole ICP video thing. I got off cause I hadn't sent him the video yet in my timeline, so it's not me he's got a grudge against. We're actually pretty chill. You might be kinda fucked though, sorry bro."

"Don't worry about it. Not even a big deal. I took him. The hypothetical Christmas turkey totally ruined the fat dude's shit."

Dave didn't bother to hide his smile either. It was stupid to try to put on the cool face for him; he saw through it way too easily. He sat back on the bed and patted at it, shrugging. He enjoyed his company; it wasn't stressful and he didn't have to talk about relevant things.

Davesprite doesn't even hesitate to make himself comfortable, tail tucked off to the side and wings folded down against his back. Enough time in the damn sprite form and he finally got used to adjusting to everyday things.

"Gotta be careful around the clown man, religious crisis combined with whatever psychosis he's got going on can't be a good mix. Though he's from far enough back where he remembers the convo where you sent him the video but not the part where he went all batshit and bitching and whining on us when we first spoke to him."

Dave leaned back against the headboard and gave the other his full attention. This awesome motherfucker deserved all of his attention, of course. The radio project was put off to the side; it was probably futile, anyway. There didn't seem to be a tense bone in his body at this point.

"He doesn't know what's going on. It's cool." He almost asked him who he'd run into, but there was plenty of time for logical discussion later. He hadn't had a chance to just bullshit with anyone in awhile.

"I miss my camera. So much potential for good photography here."

He was perfectly happy with just random bullshit discussions. Too much serious shit, too much on his mind ever since then. Even since being in this place and even talking to Makara there was always that pile of shit weighing him down. It was good to just let himself relax a bit and forget about all of it.

"Damn it feels like it's been so long since I've had mine, but yeah you're right. Sucks worse than a five buck prostitute on a subway in the ghetto. Also I wasn't even shitting you before, the crows here have Russian accents. It's freaky as hell but enough time hanging out with them and I think I can almost understand them. And they're Russian."

"Why are you hanging out with the crows? That's lonely. I'd rather be hanging out with the five buck prostitutes. Or, much better, Dave Strider. That kid is pretty cool. Word on the street is he's gonna be staying in this very hotel room for the duration of his dream vacation in Run Down Piece of Shitsville."

Dave leaned forward and examined the other lazily, tipping down his sunglasses. It was already dark in the room, and the sunglasses just made it darker. Sliding them down was like cranking up the brightness on an old monitor he'd gotten used to over the years.

"Hey man, I can't help it if my swag's strong enough to keep even feathery assholes all over me. Found a bunch of them in the forest when I first got here and a couple of them just started following me around. Got bored as shit and started talking to them."

The amusement was clear on his face, because clearly there was no possible way he could argue with the other's logic. It was just too flawless.

"If such an awesome dude's gonna be staying here though, I think I might just stick around for a while longer than planned. Can't pass up the chance to hang with the coolest motherfucker in this dumpass place."

"And they talk back to you. Is this like, a skill you acquired with your wings or are you just crazy now. I'm cool with either, really. Just gotta know what I'm working with."

His eyebrows raised, he rested back against the headboard and sort of slouched, stretching. He hadn't been that comfortable in awhile.

"You should. It's much better than hanging out with some crow assholes who you can't even understand. We can even lay down some sicknasty fires later if you want."

"You know, I stopped wondering that same thing about three days ago. Thought about it, realized I really didn't give a shit and decided to just go with the flow. So it could be either, no clue."

He gave a shrug, wings flexing against his back before resettling behind him. It was harder to lean against something with the damn things, but he'd at least learned it doesn't feel too bad so long as they're at the right angle.

"And I'd be up for it, just a little out of practice over here. Haven't had time for that shit in months save for when I was chillin with Makara.

"Listen to yourself. Quit being modest. You and I both know you are tied for first place when it comes to spitting some wicked shit."

Dave wasn't about to start pushing for it right now, though. It was too relaxed of an atmosphere. The bare lightbulb on the ceiling flickered on and out now and again, but when it was on, he used the minimal light to actually examine the other's feathers. He wanted to tell him to make himself comfortable, but he wasn't even sure if that was possible with those things.

The room was a little cold, and soon he found his toes curling underneath the blankets. As a Texas native, he didn't have the best cold tolerance in the world. In fact, it was almost non-existent.
