[Karkat is sitting just outside The Usual spot. The feed shows him quietly munching on some form of pastry with a cup of some steaming liquid. The troll almost seems content with the world, except for the bags under his eyes and the apparent sleep he has not been getting, Karkat looks pleasant enough. He opens his mouth to speak, but quickly begins ( Read more... )

[Movies? Oh! Italy loves moving pictures! He quickly responds to the transmission.]

I haven't heard about a place to watch movies, but I would be interested in seeing your movie. Is it a horror movie? Ve~ I hope it is! I liked Nosferatu, you know? Although I bet I can be scarier!

[He is all hopeful gleaming eyes and bright smile.]

I'm not sure what Nosferatu is. It is a troll RomCom, featuring Troll Adam Sandler. I'm not much for horror films they really do not give the depth and romantic struggle that RomComs portray.

[Italy deflates visibly.]

I don't know what a RomCom is, but I would rather watch violent struggles than romantic struggles. Does anyone die at all in your movie?

Not in this one. But, some offer a death, never the death of the main character. Or the romantic interests. Sometimes a death will effect one of the characters and there relationship will be challenged!

Do they become miserable after their loved ones die? [He looks hopeful, with a very sweet smile.]

I like it when main characters die. It is always amusing to watch empires fall!

Well...yeah of course they become miserable! Why wouldn't they! I would never want someone close to me to die...I don't know what I would do.

Empires fall? Can you explain?

[Italy's eyes darken with sadness and, beneath the pain, old barely contained fury.]

I know what I did when the one I loved died. It made me upset. Very upset.

[He blinks and the sweet smile returns.]

I'm old, you little odd creature. I have watched human empires rise and fall, nations be born and die. It's entertaining. Like moving pictures, but better because it's real!

Oh! Are you a nation like Theta is? She said she was the British Empire...or something like that.

[He blinks.]

Last time I checked, England was male and called himself Arthur Kirkland.

[Italy hums thoughtfully.]

But... I have not met England personally in Ruby City, maybe it is a different world's England. It stands to reason when there are people from different times and worlds in this city, that all these worlds would come with their own versions of the nations...

Yes, you can say I'm a nation like her. While we're at it... What are you?

I'm a troll! A troll from Alternia. My name is Karkat Vantas, and you are?

[He gives a wave of his hand and a beaming smile.]

A troll. [He says this dryly, stares at Karkat for a moment, then shakes his head with a snort.] Ve!

I'm the nation of Italy. Well, the northern half of it. Call me Italy. Or Feliciano Vargas. Or Veneziano. [He smirks.] I have many names. But I've never met a troll before.

Nice to meet you then, Italy! There are quite a few of us trolls in the city. I've lost track...mmmm I should take a list. But! They are my teammates and friends.

Teammates and friends [Italy repeats this, clearly unimpressed.] You know, the funny thing about teammates is that allegiances shift all the time.

[He shakes his head]

Never mind. You said there are quite a few of yours in the city? Is there anything I should know about them? [He smiles.] Say... are they all as friendly as you are? You wouldn't want me to get in trouble with the wrong troll, would you? We're friends, aren't we?

[He is quiet for a moment as he tried to process that first comment.] Well it it only to be expected. Can't say friends in trollian without also saying enemies. They are the same word after all.

Well, there are 8 trolls I believe, including myself. I believe they are friendly. Some can be a bit on the rough side. Sollux is one of those, but for the most part they are friendly.

[He tilts his head to the side.] Trollian sounds like a smart language.

Ah, so your friends like to play rough? [The smile widens and turns playfully sinister. His violet eyes gleam.] I like to play rough, too...

beepbeepmeeow July 18 2011, 03:16:38 UTC
Well Trolls are a violent and angry race. So yes, we can play rough.

[If Italy is trying to be creepy, threatening ect. It goes right over Karkat's head]
