[Davesprite's voice is much more quiet and subdued than normally.]
I need someone who's good with tracking wearables and shit.
I keep trying to find Bro and it says he's gone, but I'm not so great with this stuff, so. If anyone who is could confirm whether he's still here or not, that'd be great.

Dave, I...
[ Jade doesn't really know what to say. Or what to do. So she just stares, feeling helpless. ]

Fuck. He doesn't want any of them in here right now. Pink flinches away from Jade's hand.
He slams all four of his psychic arms into the wall behind him, ratting it and dumping bits of plaster on everyone's heads. How's that for an answer? ]

Dave, I'm not going to hurt you.
[ Her voice is soft, calm. ]
I just want to make sure you're okay. You can't hide in here, you're hurt and we're worried...you're not in trouble. [ A small smile flits across her face. ] I'll always forgive you, remember?

[ Pink picks up a couple pens and a few shards of glass. He starts hurling them at the opposite wall and some might come uncomfortably close to grazing his visitors. ]
I just.
[ shink ]
Don't want to talk right now.
[ shink shink shink
Aaaand now he's out of small projectiles. ]

Slowly, she inches forward and wraps her arms around him. Or she'll try, at least. ]
We don't have to talk about anything.

[ But it's too late. She's hugging him. He is NOT ready for that level of contact and it shows; he's tense and immobile save for his psychic limbs. The invisible fingers are digging into the floor.
In short; DANGER DANGER. ]

Sorry.
[ Instead, she holds out a hand to him, but not too close. Jade's willing to sit there as long as it takes. ]

But for now at least he'll wait. What else can he do?]

He shifts a little, stretching his legs out and oh jeez he sliced his foot open at some point. Probably on the glass scattered everywhere. But he doesn't seem to mind. Instead he's watching Davesprite. ]
You know you don't have to stay. [ Your girlfriend will be fine, geez. He's only KIND of unstable. ]

Oh Dave, your foot...
[ A frown, but she doesn't make any motion to poke at it. One step at a time; the hand holding was progress enough for now. She looks over her shoulder at Orange. ]
If you think the egg needs you, then you should go! I don't really trust Vriska with it, anyway.

...Still. He's being a third wheel, isn't he.]
Yeah, I'll go.
[Haha not sounding upset about that at all. Nope.]

Pink shifts his gaze to the floor. Best to just let him go -- he's got enough complicated emotional bullshit going on right now. Adding that is just too much. ]

It's not that we don't want you to stay. We just know that you have lots of important things to do! And Vriska isn't exactly the best babysitter, I bet she's trying to teach the egg to fly or something.
[ It's said gently. She doesn't want to make orange upset, but the way she shifts slightly closer to Pink is an indication of where her loyalties lie at the current moment. ]

Okay, I'll. I'll go.
[He goes to move the bed from the doorway.]
Just give me a shout if there's anything I can do.
[Or if things go wrong.]
