Not that doing any of these things has crossed her mind. At all.
"So. It's party tradition for at least one of us to do something hideously stupid, right? Dibs on it not being me this time."
Reply
"At least there isn't any booze here, so we should be save from drunken antics. And I'm not planning on doing anything hideous or stupid, so maybe we'll be lucky enough to get a pass on it this time?"

That was, of course, a joke.
Probably.
"Speaking of other guests. Uh. Who else is planning on showing?" Keeping this light. Aww yeah. "Just asking. Out of alien interest. Yeah!"

His tone's joking as well, but also slightly distracted. He's looking at Jade and pink Dave and frowning. Wow, they look really close.
"Uh, well, people I know. Most everyone from our universes, except for the worst douchebags, and a couple of people I've met on the station."

HA HA. IT'S FUNNY BECAUSE SHE AVOIDED MENTIONING SOLLUX. LAUGH.
She attempts to follow Dave's gaze - incredibly unsubtly, of course. After a few back-and-forth looks, she frowns too. "Huh. Great to see that Pantsless decided to wear pants, huh? Today must be special."

Sorry, he's too focused on Pantsless right now to notice the hilarious Sollux thing. Or anything else. He's holding Jade's arm, dammit.
"Hm."

She doesn't get the Jade thing. Jade is boring. But Dave likes her, and Dave is her moirail! That and Pantsless is a total fucking douchebag who deserves a completely platonic punch in his stupid pink face.
"Want me to go shank him?" She's joking, of course. Of course. "Or we could go over and say hi! Create a distaction. All that stuff. Not that you need to or anything. They're obviously just friends. Duh. Stop worrying. Eat some cake. Jegus."
Reply
"Yeah," he says then, "you're right. I'll let them do their friend thing. Time for some cake."
And he whirls around and heads for the cake, looking so very calm and casual and not worried at all.
(Those things were not true. He is so worried.)

Meaning moirail time, obviously.
Okay no it's totally just meddling time.
"Don't get jealous, Dave, it's not cool. Not to mention tooooooootally unfounded!" She picks up a troll cupcake as she follows on, examining it briefly before hurling it to one side. Eww. Karkat flavour. "How's that, uh. Whole thing going, anyway? Any more smoochings since your shipdate?"

Just very grumpy for reasons that have nothing to do with stupid pink-haired pantsless losers who don't even know anything about time travel and WHAT DOES JADE SEE IN HIM ANYWAY.
He cuts the cake, glares at the figurine of himself, and then snatches the little plaque onto his plate along with the cake piece. He's not jealous. He's the normal one. Pink Dave should be the jealous one.
Of course, there's the thing where... "Well, I don't know if Jade still believes that I don't bang robots. That's kind of put a damper on any smoochings."

People would hear the explosions from miles away, Jegus. Vriska knows; she used to be Equius' neighbour. The banging was pretty much constant.
"You know what you need to do?" She picks up another trollcake - Sollux - and begins busily gouging out its eyes. All in the name of accuracy, naturally. "You need to think up a biiiiiiiig gesture to show her how much you care! Care about her, that is. And not about filling robopails."
Reply
"Yeah, you may have a point. Any ideas what that gesture could be? I mean, I already took her on a date on a flying ship. Kind of hard to top that right off the bat."

The picture of innocence, Vriska puts down the mutilated Solluxcake and grabs another one, repeating the same process of de-eye-ification. "So I'm just going to stand here not telling you about it while I take the shades off these stupid lispy cupcakes. Yeah."
Subtle.

"Thanks."

But this...
"Dave, y'wanna explain to me why the Fondue Fork Friend is mutilating my snack food?"
