17| Accidental Visual | Location: Streets Of Taxon |For all the ghosts that are never gonna catch me

[goodluck_kobra]

Kobra is wandering through the streets, starring at the tablet and almost falling over his feet. He's trying to find out if there is another forest or lake in Taxon, somewhere to explore. He needs a distraction

Jet still hasn't quite got the hang of the tablet and the way it seems to just turn itself on, but he's glad it does when he catches sight of the Kobra Kid chasing...someone down the street and curling into a tiny ball of misery.
"Yo. Hey. Hey. Double-K. You, uh...you alright? What's going on?"

Jet's voice breaks through Kobra's frazzled thoughts, but for a second he thinks it's just another hallucination. Maybe he's running a fever. Maybe he's dying. Now that would do everyone a fucking favour, including himself.

Glancing up he sees the red light flashing on the tablet though and groans, drops his head again. Fuck. Fuck the motherfucking hamsters who think it is funny to show this to everyone, have everyone witness just what a fucking wreckage he is. Kobra feels shame rising hot and heavy in his chest.

"Nuthing," he mutters without picking the tablet up. "Go away."

Jet rolls his eyes. "Listen princess, you know you can't feed me that hormonal teenager bullshit. Why don't you pick up that thing so I can see your shiny little mask proper, and tell me what the fuck has you all crankified." Jet loves the Kid like a brother, he really does, and no matter how hardened and cold he thinks he has become, Kobra alway seems to know how to push his protective buttons. Jet just hopes Party won't notice what's going on right away, because Party's tough love can be a lot tougher than Jet's.

Kobra pulls a face that every teenager would be jealous of, but shuffles over to grab the tablet. He's clearly not impressed with all of this, though.

He considers for a moment but then shakes his head. Jet is gonna think he's completely crazy if he tells him about seeing Grace. "'m fine. Just...got all a bit too much."

"Kid. Don't go all black ops on me," Jet says, his expression softening slightly. "I know this place is totally batshit, but we won't make it out if we don't trust each other, and you're hiding something. Talk to me."

Kobra shakes his head, trying to come up with the words and failing. "I think I'm going batshit too," he admits, trying to smile wryly but ending up looking like he's about to cry. "I hate this fucking place."

Jet frowns at his screen, brows knitting together in concern. He hasn't quite decided how he feels about this place himself, but so far it's not exactly paradise. He can't say he doesn't understand where Kobra is coming from.

"I know you do, Kid," he says. "Look, is there anywhere around here we could score us some fire water? I think we could both use a stiff drink, what do you say?"

Kobra hesitates at first. He's been avoiding all food and drink Taxon has to offer, but damn he wants nothing more than to drink himself into a stupor, until he can't think anymore and doesn't feel like he is shaking apart.

"Yeah, there are places. Where are you?"

"I'm...uh..." Jet isn't really sure of the layout of the city yet, and he isn't quite sure where he is, it's just wherever Poison took him. "I'm wherever Poison is usually at. He's not here right now, though. I seriously hate not knowing where the fuck I'm at."

well, fuck Poison. He'd probably taken Jet to his Ladyjoy's or something. Kobra huffed and shook his head.

"There should be a map of the city on your tablet. Meet me at the Dodgy Jammer?"
