[Have a very confused and rightfully suspicious Terezi on your screen Tavros. She hasn't had her dose of candy yet, luckily for her.] I am not sure why you are speaking that way. I admit it is sort of cool, in a very odd sort of way, but it is also getting sort of annoying.
And what do you mean you have feelings for Karkat? I apologize, but I do not see that working out very well, considering all his quadrants are already full. [Emphasis on the full. Terezi isn't normally the jealous sort but this is sort of ...worrying? Mostly because she had absolutely no idea Tavros felt anything towards Karkat.]
[Audio] OH GOD I DIED WHEN I SAW THIS TAG.martin_sorvatOctober 25 2011, 04:13:37 UTC
Oh, Terezi.
I.
Um.
Wow.
Tavros is not sure how to respond to this sudden ent-entrance of Terezi, someone um, very close to Karkat, someone he does not ant to hurt, because Terezi is his friend, and um, it would be pretty unpleasant if she wasn't, um, his friend. Tavros pauses, not sure what to say, but decides playing dumb might be the best option.
Yeah.
Uh.
What feelings?
The troll just now realizes that saying his plan out loud is probably um.. not...the best way...of undergoing said plan...
[video] Good, because I died when I saw this post. Poor Tavros. This is hilarious. l1br4torOctober 25 2011, 04:22:44 UTC
[Okay, she knew Tavros was not the brightest, but saying he was going to play dumb out loud? He wasn't that idiotic. What exactly is going on here?! Never the less, she has to prioritize here, and that bit about Karkat is first priority!]
You are right Tavros. Playing dumb is pretty stupid when I know that is what you are doing! Now tell me what you meant! [She's not going to stop until she hears what he has to say. No way. Although she's a little hesitant, because they are friends, just as Tavros had said, if Tavros is harboring feelings towards her matesprit, she deserves to know.]
Feelings, he has, so many for Karkat. So many red feelings he cannot express them, um, now, or ever, to anyone bit him. It's so very strange that he is um, only realizing this now and-
OH GOD I, UH, NOPE, UH, I DON'T FEEL OR UH, MEAN ANYTHING!
He yells, but it's uh, pretty futile, his feelings are too strong to deny any long-
[Equius is shocked when he sees the feed on his watch. Completely shocked, and also more than a little heartbroken. He... he thought things were going so well... it's enough to make a guy want to eat the candy that appeared on his nightstand.]
[When he responds, all Tavros gets is him singing, in a surprisingly pleasing baritone voice.]
Don’t tell me I haven’t been good to you Don’t tell me I have never been there for you Don’t tell me why Nothing is good enough
[Why is he singing? That doesn't make much sense! Equius' ears go back, and before he can stop himself, he bursts out with another song.]
It's just one of those days Feeling like a freight train
[No, no, no! That's not right! He stops, takes a deep breath and tries to get control of himself.]
It makes me sad to think This could all be for nothing I wish there was a way A way for you to see inside me I've never felt this way About anyone or anything … tell me
What do I have to do to make you happy? What do I have to do to make you understand? What do I have to do to make you want me? But, if I can't make you want me What do I have to do?
Tavros stares at his watch, unsure of how to feel about this situation because what the heck is...is even happening here. Equius is singing. And he's still...narrating himself, and he's feeling these things he never felt before and, this is all a lot to deal with, and uh, wow, he is...still talking to himself.
Mostly because Gamzee can't speak, but that's beside the point.]
...i know my bro is great and all, but. why him. and not me? am i that bad for you, brother? that you can get your pity on for my 'rail when you two motherfuckers don't even chill much. but not me?
i don't get why you're talking like that. and i don't really all motherfuckin care. but now that you got my point. explain your motherfuckin reasoning.
Tavros runs a hand through his hair, biting his lower lip, he is very confused, and Gamzee, Gamzee is probably the last person he uh, he ever wants to hurt, since he's pretty sure Gamzee and he are best bros. He thinks... He thought so. But, this is just really confusing, why is he so angry!? Tavros slaps h-[He slaps a hand over his mouth and squints his eyes, trying to...settle down. He's getting pretty frantic here! Gamzee seems really mad...]
Okay...
Tavros sighs, finally having removed his. [Growl.] He growls angrily at himself, because, wow, this is...still happening...

[Here have your dying crush on your feed Tav. With a face that literally is the most dead set and unhumorous face one can have. He does not appreciate those that mess around with quadrants. He knows well you have a matesprit Tav and why are you talking like that!]
Do I even need to ask what you are doing? Why are you talking like that and why do you suddenly have a heaping bulge of pity for me on your plate?
He is having a hard time responding because there is this uh, sudden rush of emotion he can't really control and the magnit-t-tude of it is kind of off putting. This is really weird.
Well, I can't really help it. I actually can't describe it at all, I just, there's something there, uh, when I think about you.
To be honest that's weird, because, even if Karkat was his friend, Tavros really didn't remember...ever thinking about him much before...
There is a look of concern in this other troll's eyes, as she stares at the watch. She has always looked out for friends, and auspicticed wherever needed. But what is she do, here, when... she's honestly confused? She doesn't want to break things to him too harshly, but...
... perhaps if she were to gently point out the obvious. He might just need that gentle reassurance. He seems to be inflicted with a similar problem as herself, it might be affecting him in a different manner.
[Guess who's been dipping into similar candy, Tavros.]
Tavros, she begins, keeping that gentle tone, this is... a brief, thoughtful pause... very sudden. Are you feeling quite alright?
Yes, that seems a good enough start. As an afterthought, she adds on, and I am terribly sorry for my current state. It's rather uncontrollable. She hopes that he can excuse it...
There is no need to apologize, she emphasizes strongly. Things may perhaps be a little strange, and you might be a bit... there must be a proper, kind word here... ah... confused.
Though, after some brief thought, she does concede, well... Terezi might perhaps need an explanation for this sudden intense interest in her matesprit. She isn't sure that the other would take this very well, all things considering.
Again, a brief pause. Tavros. She softly emphasizes his name... it's alright. I don't mind making this my problem. She clarifies further, right now, the current priority is you. Why don't we stay on the previous subject, she goes on, to steer gently back. Are you feeling alright?

Don’t tell me I haven’t been good to you
Don’t tell me I have never been there for you
Don’t tell me why
Nothing is good enough

Uh, Equius...
But wait, why is the other singing? That doesn't...really make any sense?
Um, why are you singing, to me, um, is this some form of slam poetry? I don't know if now is the t-time to throw down...

Wait, he has a point, Tavros realizes this and pauses for a moment, uh, trying to not be stupid for a second.

He pauses, staring at the watch, trying t-t-to choke back sobs pertaining to the other, uh, conversations.
I'm sorry, I, you don't have to, uh, make this your problem, or anything, I just...
He wipes his eyes and takes in a, deep breath, actually, more like two, uh, breathes, and holds the watch close.
You don't have to be sorry, I um, I'm pretty sure I should be saying sorry, t-to a lot of people... Um, for reasons I'm not even sure of.
