"Huge bitch, bluh bluh." Those very words kept ringing in her ears while she flew towards the bloody carnival, tempting her to stop and go back because ultimately, it's not worth it. They've always told her she was crazy, that she was a heartless little bitch that cared for no one else but herself. Her hate was too fake for a proper caliginious quadrant, and red ones? Ha, the very thought was ludicrous. They hated her. They warned other people about how dangerous she was, and how making friends with her was a death wish in itself. They took Tavros away from her because they thought she wanted to kill him (she did, but she wasn't going to ( ... )

Gamzee watched her impassively for a few moments, before he broke out in loud laughter, the calm impassiveness then quickly returning again. And then he was talking, though it didn't seem to be directed at her.

"listen to that.
WILL YOU MOTHERFUCKING
listen to that.
FUCKING GUTTERBLOOD THINKS SHE CAN ORDER US.
what a laugh.
WHAT A MOTHERFUCKING JOKE."

The hand she wasn't using to hold her dice twitched. She wanted to just lunge at him and choke him to death, but she knew if she made any wrong moves, then it's bye bye to bubble city and hello to bubble kingdom inhabited by horrorterrors forever.

"You're the joke, you useless sack of shit. I told Karkat to kill you weeks ago, but I guess he was too stupid to listen. Come on, asshole, let's dance already."

She rolled the dice, getting a perfect 8^8 because of her near impeccable luck. Out of the million choices, it stopped to Guillotine de la Marquise. The device began to appear around Gamzee's neck, and the blade was ready to descend.

Wow, this sure was easy!

[ ... So. Have you ever had one of those moments you've walked in on something you PROBABLY shouldn't have?

He just had one of those moments. What... was he even watching? What had happened? Vriska had left a message on his voicemail about leaving, so... he followed her. Silently, slipped out of the dorms, and ran into Gamzee and her fighting. That was the first unexpected thing.

The second was seeing the cerulean blood come from his friend. ]

V... Vriska?

[Gamzee gripped the back of Vriska's hood, giving her a rough shake as she slid out of it. Her body hit the pavement with a hollow thud as Gamzee calmly shrugged on her blood-splattered, ruined clothing. Then, and only then, he glanced at Ryoji.]

will you look at that.
HEHEHE.
looking for something?

[ ... Oh my god what does he even.

It's... now registering that Gamzee has killed Vriska to him, and... after the message she left him? It sounded like she was going to die. But... he didn't honestly believe it. That someone who he'd sensed as powerful as her would die so easily. He didn't know what had happened just now, or what to even do.

This was Gamzee. Gamzee. The really chill bro he'd met who he thought would be friends with... and he was killing Vriska.

His friend. Two friends, fighting each other.

Didn't it always come down to that, in the end? Would he be a killer like this? So many thoughts were racing right now that he didn't know what to do, beyond stand there. And stare. ]

Y-you...

[ You've... killed her. And it wasn't even her time or out of mercy. Why?

If he'd been thinking straight, he would have known better. He WOULD have--should have--changed to defend himself. But... this was Gamzee, and that was the body of his friend over there, being desecrated without any care whatsoever. He was so lost right now. What ( ... )

I had this opened for the longest time and forgot to send it :'|a thatsjustpawful March 12 2011, 19:32:44 UTC
[ She didn't know how she got herself into this situation. Nepeta was with Sollux just minutes before, but she had gotten distracted and he had gotten lost and now she didn't know where he was or where she was.

It didn't begin to cause her panic until she realized that while she didn't know where she was, she wasn't alone anymore. ]

Uhm.. [ Tentatively, she spoke with a grin on her face; surely, Gamzee was still the Gamzee she knew, right? After all- Karkat was just a little worrycat and Sollux was Gamzee's moirail and there was still sopor slime in the Nostalgia Nook. There wasn't anything to be afraid of, right? ]

Hi, TC! Are you enjoying the carnival?

welp. faygot March 12 2011, 20:17:45 UTC
i am
HAVING THE MOTHERFUCKING
time of my life.

[He smiles at her, but it is the kind of smile that does not touch his eyes. He extends a hand at her like he is not wearing Vriska's bloodied hoodie and the scarf he stole off of Ryoji.]

do you want
TO PLAY A MOTHERFUCKING GAME
with me?

[ She's just about to take his hand when she realizes that there is the stench of blood, and she hadn't noticed it before-- why hadn't she noticed it before? Her hand retracts instantly, and she takes a step back; her smile's turned into that of a forced, nervous one. ]

... Uhm...

What.. kind of game?

This is going to be horrible ninthserenade March 12 2011, 05:21:11 UTC
Oh Kingdom Hearts, what the hell is this? Part of him was getting a very bad feeling from that 'invitation'. Obviously he had to check it out. What he expected was just fingerpaint on the walls. What he saw was a chilling trail of red and an unconscious--probably dead woman slumped over in the ticket booth at the end of that path. What he got was a rather sick feeling in the pit of his gut and the faint taste of bile in the back of his throat. Just what the hell was going on here?

What the hell was going on and why?

"Gamzee!?"

"heheh.
CHECK IT OUT.
heh.
EVEN NOTHING
can't resist
THE MOTHERFUCKING CARNIVAL."

Gamzee sat perched on one of the lowest gondolas of the Ferris Wheel. Already he had done some collecting. His usual outfit was complimented with Vriska's torn and blood-stained hoodie. A yellow scarf, stolen from Ryoji, was wrapped carelessly around his neck, and a familiar blue cat hat was pulled over his hair, showing off his snapped-in-two horns.

A clown without horns. What a sad sight.

"Nothing? What the hell are you even talking about?"

Just by giving the troll a clear once-over, it was pretty clear that others besides those two humans were injured--maybe... Maybe worse. He registered the hints of blue, remembering what Gamzee had said about blood colors; Vriska's? Yeah. It had to be. He remembered the hoodie. The other items however were foreign to him.

"Actually, scratch that. What the hell did you do?"

Sorry for the late- my internet refused to work yesterday. >_< theothersissel March 13 2011, 18:57:11 UTC
[To tell the truth, Yomiel didn't really liked carnivals. But he was bored and so he had went on to check the thing out. As suspected, the event was merely a mild amusement, and so Yomiel was heading out, intending to walk around the city like he always did at midnight- he couldn't sleep, after all.]

[But now he had the sense somebody was following him. He couldn't be certain, but...was that a honk in the distance? And now that he was listening, he could hear a faint scream as well.]

Who's there?

No worries! faygot March 13 2011, 23:10:37 UTC
Just someone
SOME WHO HAS FINALLY FUCKING REALIZED
who he is meant to be
AND WHAT HE IS MEANT TO DO.

[Gamzee slunk forward from the shadows, and if Yomiel had any knowledge of troll blood colours, then the vivid blue and green stains on his clothes should be more than obvious. And if that was not enough, there were the trophies he had collected from the ones he had met before -- Vriska's hoodie, Ryoji's scarf, Nepeta's hat.]

[Yomiel's eyes narrowed behind his sunglasses. This was definitely a troll, there was no mistaking that. But one he hadn't met before. Hmmm.]

What are you talking about?

[At first, the splatters of color seemed to be nothing more than specks of paint...but that hoodie. He had seen it on Vriska once, hadn't he? There was no way Vriska would have given that over willingly, Yomiel was certain of it.]

[What had happened to her?]

...Who are you?
