[Oh no poor Karkat :( :( :(]

Jegus, I was wondering where you were!

[SHE WAS WORRIED. But not going to say that nope. Paaause.]

Are you okay, Karkat?

voodeeooo

[cancerousnubs]

[Dat voice. HOW LONG HAS IT BEEN SINCE HE'S HEARD DAT VOICE. And seen those red raptor glasses. A sight for sore eyes, which are in fact sore.]

Better now, obviously. I don't even remember seeing you here before I left.

[foretolds]

Welll, then we are on the same page! Because I don't remember ever being here before.

[STILL A LITTLE WORRIED. Still not going to say anything.]

So, what happened?

[cancerousnubs]

I was at the Veil for some gogdamned reason. Last thing I remember from here was the lights going off and people screaming about ghosts or some fucking shit.

Waking up in that uncomfortable human bed just now was like literally waking up from a bad dream.

[Now he's not so sure what happened to him wasn't just a dream.]

[thisclinchesit]

...wait, sent back?

Vidyar

[cancerousnubs]

That's what I said. I just woke up there, out of the blue. Really did look like it was fucking destroyed.

[Not to mention his friends were...]

Re: Vidyar

[thisclinchesit]

[Shoutarou leans back in his chair, mulling this over with the way that one girl had been talking in the library before some time back... Things he'd heard about the viewing room...]

That's...discouraging, to completely understate things. [He sighs.]

[cancerousnubs]

It doesn't exactly cheer a person up, no. It also doesn't disprove anything the fuckasses holding us here have said.

[evertosoar]

Yeah, I went back to my world and it was all wrecked, too.

vidya

[cancerousnubs]

Really? What was your little stroll through hell like? [Might as well compare apocalypses, right?]

[evertosoar]

I couldn't find anyone, and all the grass and trees and stuff were dead. No one was anywhere.

[cancerousnubs]

Sounds like mine, minus the trees and grass and stuff. The Veil didn't have any of that in the first place. The place was wrecked though.

[chews on his lip with blunt fangs]

Why the fuck would they send us back if they were already so damn sure it was destroyed?

[quarkylass]

oh

NO I THINK WE'RE PAST THAT POINT IN THIS BIZARRE PSEUDO FRIEND THING.
WHEN DID YOU GET HERE?
AND IN ANOTHER TIER OF IMPORTANCE, YOU'RE NOT FROM A WEIRD TIMELINE OR ANYTHING ARE YOU?

[craaaaaaaazy8s]

L8y l8 l8!
You missed allllllll the fun, Vantas.
8ut I shouldn't 8e surprised you somehow found a way to run a8scond like a cowering wriggler.

........So the Veil is really gone? Are you sure you weren't imagining things?

hops back to text for you, missy

[cancerousnubs]

I'M GOING TO TAKE AN EDUCATED GUESS THAT YOUR IDEA OF FUN IS THE OPPOSITE OF THE REAL DEFINITION.
AND FOR YOUR INFORMATION I WASN'T ABSCONDING, I WAS ABDUCTED.

YES, THE VEIL IS GONE. UNLESS I WAS DREAMING THE WHOLE THING, I GUESS.
THAT'S A POSSIBILITY.

[craaaaaaaazy8s]

Right, a8ducted. That sounds much more 8elieva8le a8out a place that a8ducted us in the first place.

You were pro8a8ly just dreaming!

oh my god this is more than a month late lksjdlkf

[cancerousnubs]

IT IS BELIEVABLE, THE NOOKSTAINS HERE LIKE TOYING WITH US ANYWAY. WHY NOT THROW US BACK TO WHERE WE WERE JUST TO FUCK WITH OUR THINKPANS ON TOP OF ALL THAT?
IF I WAS DREAMING, I'M NOT DOING THAT SHIT ANYMORE.
