SAVE THE LAST DANCE FOR ME

[urban_anchorite]

I am fully aware that most people on my friendslist will soon defriend me if I talk any more Marchingstuck, but it keeps happening. This is more about Promstuck, a special subset of Marchingstuck regarding proms, but is also the tender and thoughtful tale of how Rose Lalonde (drum major) fell for Kanaya Maryam (uniforms operator). And by tender and

I hope that Shelby passed on to you that I think you are a beautiful and wise unicorn princess, because every time I read your discussion about how prom went I laugh so hard that I make awful chucklespit and it's beautiful and everything is beautiful and nothing hurts.

why am I a Debby Downer

[steeple333]

I was cracking up the whole time, but. the part about jack getting trolled with his emergency contact
brought up bad memories

So I went to Disneyland through girl scouts to chaperone some kids. However, I got a group of little shits and because they were ableist little fucks I was sleep deprived the whole weekend. I GOT BULLIED BY MIDDLESCHOOLERS WHAT and it ended up with me having an emotional breakdown in the basement line of the Tower Of Terror and the selfish little pricks more worried about me yelling at them than the fact that they drove me to tears. Lecturing them later felt really, really good.

Then the little fucks decided to troll my phone for a few weeks. I told them to stop, and at least they did that. I was gonna play along and swear at them and troll them back if they ever did it again.

er. sorry for unloading that, I think Dave texting Jack is funny it just made me recall bad things =c I did have an excellent time otherwise at disneyland: I rode everything two or three times!

Re: why am I a Debby Downer

[schellibie]

aughhh kids can be such little shits! i'm sorry you had to deal with that. :(

[steeple333]

Thanks.... I mean, I did go to disneyland! And most of the time I went to the park with another group; park groups were arranged by ride priorities. We had allllllll the luck, so we went on everything multiple times!

Although now this makes me want to write up stuff about their Disneyland trip. Like Karkat flipping out on the California Adventure ferris wheel. Like, crying and screaming and holding the mesh sides with a deathgrip while Nepeta bounces around because she forced them all to go into the swinging type.

[schellibie]

OH GOD KARKAT HATES AND IS TERRIFIED OF ALL THRILL RIDES.

WHICH IS VERY UNFORTUNATE BECAUSE JOHN MANAGES TO DRAG HIM ALONG ON EVERYTHING.

[skaiasthelimit]

I love how you guys managed to talk about the stereotypical and usually bad high school au thing of prom and yet still managed to make it hilarious and very much appropriate for each character. Also junior year was def the worst year of my life thus far, and you are completely justified in hating it.

NANNERPUSS. AND. ROSE IN ELDRITCH COLOR GUARD. Perfection.

The Dave and Jack part... I am still wheezing you guys this is not good for my cold

I would not want to be friends with anyone who would defriend you over this, this is glorious. BI

Mine also. High fives for both of us

All I know is that prom in this case is the funniest and worst thing ever and contains miles and miles of Karkat Vantas's heart being stomped on and Rose and Kanaya in beautiful dresses or something and "Fergalicious," which is all Shelby. All Shelby, forever.

But I am so glad this delights you, as I'm like "ANY MOMENT NOW PEOPLE LIKE skaiasthelimit WILL REGRET FRIENDING ME."

[h8ersgonnah8]

SO I DOODLED SOMETHING...... because this AU basically makes my life and I love John and Vriska being touchy-feely moirails while Karkat explodes. (also this is an RP journal i am the coolkid its me)

[schellibie]

OH MY GOD I LOVE THIS. YES.

is it okay if i crosspost this to my tumblr with credit? :>

[h8ersgonnah8]

OF COURSE. My tumblr is gingerybiscuit if you'd like to credit that!

[schellibie]

yaaaaay! you are awesome. :)

[magicgenetek]

gene: also: marchingstuck nepeta is a gymnest
gene: gymnests are hardcore
gene: nepeta would be perfect
gene: they've got to be able to flip all over and do all sorts of tumbly stuff
Steeple333: hehehehe
Steeple333: yeah
gene: lean and compact like nepeta
gene: it requires DEDICATION and also LOTS OF TIME
gene: and equius goes to every meet
gene: all of them
gene: he is the cheerleader
gene: the cheerleader is him
gene: he got her the cat hat to wear over her rock-hard gymnest gelled hair
gene: D==> It looks more dignified

[steeple333]

Moohahaha, I have sucked you in >D

I bet Equius used to try to tame Nepeta's hair before school and kept breaking combs. So then he just gave up and gave her a bl00 kittycat hat that she now wears everywhere.

[magicgenetek]

YOU SUCKED ME IN you and your trolls and your marchingstuck and your AP festertongues I WAS HELPLESS AGAINST IT

Nepeta tells him that if he has to comb it, do it before he does her hair! But D--> The part is wrong he insists, and so he tries and fails until he gives up and gives her the hat.

[steeple333]

YOU CANNOT RESIST MY CHARMS AND HEADCANON

Equius is on an eternal quest to make this a cheesy teen romance and give Nepeta and ~elegant makeover~ but it's doomed to failure forever because Nepeta loves her overcoats and is impatient.
