010 ♋ Video ♋ Memory Theater

[trollsbackwards]

[ and the camera flicks on. welcome to the lab hidden in the Veil. there are computers in a sideways U formation, and piles of random junk everywhere. Karkat is off to the side, and Kanaya is next to the Matriorb, an orb with weird orange spikes coming from it. near a pile of - oh god are those clown horns? Eridan, Sollux, and one other female

UNLESS GAMZEE HAS SOME HE WANTS TO SHARE, THEN YEAH, I GUESS.

[aliveandticking]

i guess we havent seen me kill vriska yet but thats probably not very interesting
im sorry about gamzee by the way
i held it off as long as i could but it was a necessary event

[trollsbackwards]

ACTUALLY, DIDN'T WE?
I THOUGHT WE DID THAT ONE ALREADY.
AND YEAH, I KNOW.
I REALLY SHOULD HAVE LISTENED TO YOU ABOUT THAT, BUT IT WAS JUST SO FUCKING RIDICULOUS.
THAT'S MY FAULT TOO.
I SHOULD HAVE KEPT A BETTER EYE ON HIM, AFTER ALL.

[aliveandticking]

maybe you did it before i got here!
and dont think about it like that
think of it like
if i hadnt been there you wouldnt have known to keep an eye on him
and he would have killed everyone before the game even started!

[trollsbackwards]

I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU'RE SERIOUSLY TRYING TO MAKE ME FEEL BETTER ABOUT THIS.
WHERE WAS THIS OPTIMISM BEFORE.

[aliveandticking]

well before i was pretty dead and/or a robot
that combined with the fact that i hadnt come to terms with my role
meant i had way too much moping to do to be getting on with anything else!

[trollsbackwards]

I GUESS THAT'S PRETTY REASONABLE THOUGH?
YOU WERE DEAD, AFTER ALL.
THAT'S NOTHING TO BE ALL HAPPY OVER.

[aliveandticking]

even if it was reasonable it doesnt mean it was the best thing
and it definitely doesnt mean i enjoyed it!
even though i thought i did

[trollsbackwards]

YOU THOUGHT YOU DID.

[aliveandticking]

yes i thought i was digging my heels in and rebelling by sighing a lot and making sure everyone knew how unhappy i was
and thats kind of a satisfying feeling
but looking back it was pretty stupid!
and it wasnt dramatic it was just moping
