Day 413 - [Accidental Video]

[ The feed opens to show a place under the canopy of the island forest. One of the Wonder Twins hops down from climbing some kind of tropical tree, holding one of its star-shaped fruits. ]

Got it.

[ Back on the ground, Roxas walks over to join his Other, looking at the fruit curiously. ]

This's- definitely a paopu. ... It doesn't have to be- romantic, right? The being together forever...

[ Sora moves forward to come into view of the screen. He takes the Paopu into his hands and stares at it for a moment. ]

I don't know. I guess it doesn't have to be.

[ A slight blush creeps onto his face. ]

You think we could try it?

((Orange is Roxas and Blue is Sora. Replies may come from either one~))

So you learned how to talk like that from talking to people on- computers.

Like texting?

Yeah!

[Gamzee gives a nod in response to Sora. Husktop, laptop, computer, all names for the same motherfuckin' miracle.]

Yeah, a bro just all put his thoughts in text and other motherfuckers can get their speak on with him even if they ain't being anywhere near at where his fuckin' self be at.

[Gamzee smiles, patting his husktop.]

Met all my best bros through this bro. Weren't no motherfucker what had their hives anywhere where my hive was at, so I got to speaking with peeps through this.

[ Sora thinks about that for a bit. Yeah that would be pretty cool. It's kinda like the network here actually. ]

So kinda like the SFC right?

Only we're all stuck in the bubble, but I guess it's kinda the same.

It sounds sort of lonely where you come from.

[If the only people he could talk to were through the computer and far away.]

[It has been hella lonely. Gamzee's eyes flick to the side for a moment cause shit, that ain't nothing he likes to dwell on. Not like dwelling on it had ever all made it not be as a lonely. Quickly there comes a shrug though.]

It weren't all that motherfuckin' bad though. Got to chilling with my ol' Goat.

[You know. Sometimes.]

Goat?

[ What did a goat have to do with anything? ]

Did you have a goat friend?

[Roxas thought he said there wasn't anyone living nearby, but with the way he talks, it's hard to be sure.]

Naw, not just a bro. I was speaking about my lusus.

Lusus?

[ What was a Lusus? ]

[Gamzee just gets an equally blank look from Roxas. They really do look alike, don't they?]

[Like seeing double miracles all across the sfc.]

Shit, sorry. I keep getting my forget on for you bros not having hat sort of knowing.

[Luckily this isn't the first time Gamzee has explained the concept of lusus to anyone. That, in addition to knowing a bit more about human family structures by now, makes his explanation a lot more understandable than his first ever had ever been.]

Aight, it is all like... you bros get raised up by your mommas, right? We haven't got mommas, instead we got a lusus.

[ Well when you really think about how Roxas was created and how he's here now...yeah kind of like that. ]

Oh! Okay I get it now!

[Yeah, no mommas were involved here either.]

So they're family.

Yeah. First memory what I up and got is meeting that motherfucker.

[It is a pretty fuzzy memory on account of him being very very young, but after some random flashes which he figures is what little he remembers of the trials, there was just that big ol' fuzzy memory of getting licked for the very first time by a giant goat tongue. It was a good memory for sure.]

[ There was that word again... Sora was trying to get an understanding of what exactly that word meant when used the way Gamzee was. He's sure he's heard it before, but usually not so often. That an it was normally accompanied by annoyed looks from Leon if Cid happened to drop it while Sora was around. Come to think of it Sora wondered if maybe that word hadn't been used now and again in Donald's vocabulary too, but it was hard to tell what Donald was saying at all when he got really mad. That in mind though it sounded like a word you'd use for someone you were mad at not someone like a parent who you'd love. ]

What's that mean? Motherfucker? You use that word a lot.

[ And this is what happens when people try to shelter a child. ]

[Roxas seems to have a similar confusion because--]

I kind of thought it was a bad thing.

I ain't really certain it does all got any meaning to it.

[Seriously, what are mothers anyway? He has learned what human mothers are but there are no mothers on Alternia. It must just be some nonsense word.]

Peeps here get to saying like that sometimes, but I swear to you bros, it ain't nothing unkind like where I be from.

[Well. By his reckoning at least.]

So it's not really a bad word?

[ Or at least not one that meant bad things? Sora wasn't too sure about that, but maybe it was true. ]

I don't know. Maybe it's different for- trolls.

I ain't think so.

[He shrugs a little. Words are just noise, right? Isn't feelings what is more important here anyway.]

Hmm...

[ Sora wasn't so sure. He'd have to remember the word, but he'd make a point not to use it unless he was really mad or something! That seemed to be what you were supposed to do anyway. ]

I bet Axel knows.

[He's never heard him use it, but Axel knows all sorts of things.]
