WORD TO THE NOT SO WISE:
JUST BECAUSE YOU NO LONGER HAVE ACCESS TO TRANS-TIME MEMOS DOES NOT MEAN YOU GET TO STOP DEALING WITH THE SHAMEFUL DISPLAYS OF YOUR OWN PAST SELF.
EXAMPLE: MY PRIOR POST.
AS SOME OF YOU COMMENTED TO AND LIKELY OTHERS BESIDES NOTICED, YESTERDAY I APPARENTLY GOT IT IN MY LOBE TO BE THE MOST HUMILIATING FARTSQUEAL I COULD MANAGE TO BE BY, OF ALL THINGS, THROWING A TANTRUM OVER A SINGLE BURNT PIECE OF TOAST.
AND TRUST ME, AS EMBARRASSING AS THAT MUST HAVE BEEN TO WITNESS, IT IS AT LEAST TEN TIMES WORSE FOR ME TO LOOK BACK ON AND SEE EX POST FACTO.
SO, IN A DISPLAY OF NOT BEING A TOTAL TURDSTAIN, I WANT TO APOLOGIZE ON BEHALF OF DOUCHEBAG PAST ME FOR ALL THE IDIOTIC AND FRANKLY ASSHOLISH STUFF I UNLOADED ON BOTH COMMENTERS AND READERS OF THE WHOLE POST.
I DIDN'T MEAN IT.
LIKE, SERIOUSLY, THERE'S A CURSE GOING ON AND AFTER SOME STUFF I HEARD ABOUT PEOPLE EARLIER IN THE WEEK AND TALKING TO OTHERS, I KNOW I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO WAS AFFECTED.
I GUESS YESTERDAY WAS JUST "BE THE BIGGEST JACKASS YOU CAN" DAY
OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT, I DON'T KNOW.
IS THERE EVEN A THEME TO THIS?
IT'S WEIRD FOR IT TO JUST LAST A DAY WITHOUT SOME KIND OF EXTERNAL CAUSE FOR IT.
WHATEVER, I'M BABBLING.
THE POINT IS THAT I WAS OUT FOR THE GOLD MEDAL IN BEING A NOOKBITER YESTERDAY, I REGRET IT, HERE'S YOUR APOLOGY.

no matter what version you are, you never stop blaming your past or future self for stupid things
yeesh, karkat, settle down
you are not a hero of time or space so it is not like you are obligated to know HOW these things happen

the empress
karkat, has she been here as well?
from what i am understanding a lot of people tend to pop in and out here

I HAVE REASON TO THIS TIME, ALRIGHT.
AND SHE WAS EARLIER THIS YEAR
BUT SHE DISAPPEARED PRETTY QUICK TOO, WHICH IS LUCKY FOR PRETTY MUCH EVERYONE EVER.
WE DO, HOWEVER, HAVE THIS GIANT ASSCHEEK CALLED THE GRAND HIGHBLOOD.
HE'S TALL, HAS A HUGE MESS FOR HAIR, LONG TWISTING HORNS, AND FACE PAINT.
AND I DO MEAN BIG, LIKE, BIGGER THAN MOST HUMANS.
THERE'S A YOUNGER GUY CALLED GAMZEE WITH THE PAINT AND SIMILAR HORNS BUT HE'S GOOD EVEN IF HE IS A CLOWN-WORSHIPING DUMBASS.

are they related?
...wait trolls do not have relatives
it would be more accurate to ask "is that some result of your ectobiology shenanigans?"
and do you need me to shrink him down and keep him in a jar?

WE HAVE RELATIVES, JUST NOT IN THE SENSE HUMANS DO
AND I DIDN'T ACTUALLY BUY INTO THE IDEA UNTIL I SAW PROOF HERE.
WHICH IN THIS CASE IS CAUSED BY ECTOBIOLOGY SHENANIGANS, JUST LIKE YOU AND YOUR GUARDIANS.
THE GRAND HIGHBLOOD IS GAMZEE'S ANCESTOR.
UNDER NORMAL CIRCUMSTANCES THIS WOULD MEAN HE'S THE TROLL WHO CONTRIBUTED THE LARGEST PORTION OF GENES THAT WENT INTO GAMZEE'S DNA AND SHARE HIS SIGN AND STUFF
BUT IN THIS CASE, AS SAID, IT'S JUST CLONING SHENANIGANS.
THERE'S OTHERS HERE TOO, SOME MORE WORTHWHILE THAN OTHERS, AND YOU'LL PROBABLY MEET THEM IN YOUR OWN TIME.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO THAT EITHER.
I'D DEFINITELY REST EASIER IF YOU DID, BUT HE'S LEFT MOST OF US ALONE ASIDE FROM KILLING THE SUMMONER A WHILE BACK
BUT THEN DARKLEER KILLED HIM, AND THINGS KIND OF STOPPED?
I HAVE NO CLUE OF THE WHOLE STORY AND FRANKLY I'M KEEPING MY SNIFF NODE AS FAR FROM THAT BUSINESS AS I CAN KEEP IT AFTER THAT MESS.

oh man i forgot how tl;dr you get
but
hmm
okay
as long as you know that i am an option for any future
well
giant ass clown circuses of torture coming through the town

THAT'S NOT EVEN CLOSE TO TL;DR FROM ME, JADE.
I HAVE DEALT WITH FOUR SEPARATE GIANT ASS CLOWN CIRCUSES OF TORTURE, DEPENDING ON HOW YOU LOOK AT THEM
AND THE FIFTH I PRETTY MUCH KEPT MYSELF OUT OF.
I'M A PRO AT THIS BY NOW.
BUT IF IT'S THE KIND WITH THE DOUCHEBLOOD, NOT SOMETHING THE TEAM CAN AVOID, AND OTHER PLANS AND FAILSAFES ARE UNAVAILABLE/UNFEASIBLE/TOO TIME CONSUMING, I'LL LET YOU KNOW.

oh no, of course it isnt
you have not even gone off on any long tangents
for paragraphs
like this
with many creative vulgar descriptions and insults sprinkled everywhere
actually you seem to be in a good mood?
has being in vatheon really made you less of an asshole than you were the last time i talked to you?

I DON'T KNOW, MAYBE THE UNIVERSE IS TRYING TO COUNTERBALANCE THE PERPETUAL RAGE DEVICE I WAS BEING YESTERDAY.
BUT MAYBE?
THINGS USUALLY AREN'T AS TERRIBLE HERE AS THEY WERE IN THE VEIL
AND CERTAIN PERIOD ANNOYANCES AND BAD MEMORIES ASIDE, I'D SOONER STAY HERE THAN GO BACK TO PARADOX SPACE.
I KNOW FOR A FACT I'VE MELLOWED OUT IN SOME TRAITS.
JUST DON'T EXPECT ME TO BE A PUSHOVER, BECAUSE I CAN AND WILL SLING WHATEVER INSULT-FILLED TANGENTS AROUND I WANT WHEN I FEEL IT'S MERITED.

theres the karkat i know!!
our first conversation in a while is going a lot better than i would have thought!
maybe soon we will be able to meet in person without jack chasing after us

HEY, FROM YOUR PERSPECTIVE THOSE CONVERSATIONS MIGHT HAVE HAPPENED OVER A LENGTH OF TIME, BUT THEY WERE ALL IN THE SAME HIGHLY STRESSFUL AND SLEEP-DEPRIVED DAY FROM MY PERSPECTIVE.
I'VE HAD OVER A YEAR AND A HALF SINCE THEN TO GET USED TO USUALLY NOT HAVING TO WORRY ABOUT IMPENDING LOSS OF LIFE, CHILL ON SOME THINGS THAT WERE BOTHERING ME AT THE TIME, AND ALTOGETHER GROW AS A PERSON.
I AM NOT A STATIC EXISTENCE, JADE HARLEY
WHO KNEW, BUT PEOPLE LEARN THINGS!
BUT NO, WE DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT JACK.
HE'S NOT HERE AND HE NEVER HAS BEEN.
YOUR VERSION AT LEAST.
OURS WAS HERE FOR A WHILE LAST YEAR BUT THE WORST HE DID WAS COMMIT CLOCK STORE ARSON AND FIRE PEOPLE FROM A RESTAURANT.

omg
you should learn to stop rambling so much next
people are going to start falling asleep before you are finished explaining anything
9_9
i think judging by the fact that this vatheon place is still intact
and the people seem happy
and are not screaming for mercy or getting stabbed
yes, that is a good indication that my version of jack has never been here

SPARE ME, HARLEY.
THAT'S NOT EVEN NEAR AS BAD AS IT CAN GET WHEN I'M TALKING ABOUT SOMETHING COMPLEX AND IMPORTANT.
NO SHIT ABOUT THAT, THOUGH.
IF HE HAD BEEN HERE, UNLESS YOU ARRIVED MID-ATTACK, THE WHOLE PLACE WOULD BE GONE ALONG WITH A FAIR-SIZED CHUNK OF THE PLANET, DEPENDING HOW LARGE THIS PLACE ACTUALLY IS.
HE WENT ON A CRUSADE THROUGH OUR SESSION BLOWING SHIT UP, STARTING WITH PROSPIT.
GUESS WHO FINALLY WOKE UP ON THAT GAUDY GOLDHEAP FOR A FRONT ROW SEAT TO THE EVENT.

yeah he is pretty adept at blowing up shit
i do wonder too how big this planet is though
or where it even is in conjunction with everything else
i try to reach out and feel what else is out there but i just get tired
or feel like there is something blocking the way :\

THAT WOULD LIKELY BE BECAUSE OF THE ACTUAL BARRIER SURROUNDING THIS PLACE
AND NOT JUST THE BUBBLE
BUT THE ONE CLOSING OFF THE SPACE AROUND THE ISLAND ABOVE.
WE DO NOT GET OUT OF THIS PLACE EXCEPT AT THEIR WHIMS, SAME AS WE'RE BROUGHT HERE AT RANDOM AND WITH NO NOTICE
AND THE ONLY EXPLANATION WE'VE BEEN GETTING HAS BEEN A STEADY IV DRIP OF SCROUNGED PAPERS AND HACKED INFO, AND RARELY AT THAT.
