wait, let me count out twenty-five of these things ♏ audio

[cahoooooooots]

Equius, Sollux, float over my way. I need to talk to both of you. It doesn't have to be both at once. It probably shouldn't.

[Vriska's voice sounds dry. worn. like she's been living a nightmare since they left Haven. she swallows.]

Is everybody else okay? Not just the trolls or, um, John, Rose, and Dave. Is there anything I can... like, fix?

Hey.|

[cahoooooooots]

Heh.
8een a while, 8S.
How are you holding up?

[Text/Icons Blank]

[strongestcoward]

I think I almost died, but I'm okay.

Or I was until I realised that your abbreviation of my nickname looks like an upset face. Mostly it upsets me because it's so accurate.|

[cahoooooooots]

I could type it BS, 8ut that makes it look like you have a mask.
Not the one I think you already said you had, either.

It's good you made it out alive.

[psionichax0r]

Sup.

[guess who's planted firmly to the floor.]

Now good? Or are you talking with sweaty ass?

[cahoooooooots]

I'm not talking with him yet. You can come over.

But I'm pretty sure I told you to float.

[psionichax0r]

Guess I'm just too down to earth.

[cahoooooooots]

Just come here, doofus.

[audio - locked 10%]

[caligulasaqua]

You're okay, right?

[audio - locked 10%]

[cahoooooooots]

Yeah, sure. Physically. What about you?

[audio - locked 10%]

[caligulasaqua]

I'm fine. Obviously. I think you and me and everyone from the base might be the only ones that are though.

[audio - locked 10%]

[cahoooooooots]

[a sigh, and then a pause.]

How do you always know exactly the wrong thing to say?

[lordsweatyhorse]

Are you preoccupied, or should I come over now?

[cahoooooooots]

I'm not busy.

Ugh, this is gonna be a rough conversation. I'm just gonna say that right now. I'll, um, get into more detail when you're here.

[audio] D --> [in person]

[lordsweatyhorse]

I'm not in a particularly good mood myself. Perhaps we can help each other.

[He hisses a little and shuts off the feed, then proceeding to make his way to her room. He really hasn't seen Vriska in a while, and if anyone can help him deal with Eridan, it will be her.

Maybe she won't be the best one to talk to about Aradia, but he'll decide if he's going to bring that up once he gets there and sees what sort of a state she's in.

He floats down the hallway rather quickly, kicking off of walls lightly with the balls of his feet but still managing to chip the paint off in some spots. He flexes his arms when he presses against the wall outside of her door, then taps at it with one finger.]

Requesting entry.

[in person]

[cahoooooooots]

Granted.

[she says it weakly, and is already floating towards the door when she does say it.]

You better not be flexing out there.

[she opens the door on the last word of the sentence.]

[Audio]

[marriedatoilet]

You okay over there, Vriska? [ Marie sounds extremely weary, as if she hadn't been getting much sleep. ]

[Audio]

[cahoooooooots]

Yeah. [hold on.] Shit. Have you heard from Maka since the... the thing?

[Audio]

[marriedatoilet]

N-No... I'm sure she's fine though. [ Wishful thinking, but it was one of the few things she had at this point. ]

[Audio]

[cahoooooooots]

Fuck!

You have to promise me the second you see her that you tell me.
