> Nepeta and Gamzee: Ship all the things

[When the recording starts the picture is moving along in a rather strange, jerky motion, up to a door that gets headbutted open by the feathery head that's holding the starfish in its mouth, revealing...

...what seems to be the low-lit interior of something more akin to a cave than a room, littered with messy piles of soft scraps and plushies and yarn and even the occasional teapot.

A monstrous shadow looms on the wall, a fearsome looking four-horned creature.]

You're the best, Gamzee! I'd nefur have been able to reach to use all that extra wall if you weren't here, nope nope nope!

[And with a squawk the chocobo drops the SFC, sending it cartwheeling until it points at the origins of that shadow, a messier-than-usual kitty troll perched on a clown troll's shoulders, various hues of paint staining her hands and clothes and even her cheeks, still dripping a bright red from an outstretched paintbrush that had been adding the finishing touches to a heart high up on:]

Oh, Pounce! Hi Pounce! I'm really glad that Gamzee brought you to visi...POUNCE WHERE DID YOU GET THAT?! OH NOOOOO...

[She attempts to leap at the wall to block it from view; this doesn't go well when instead it just makes both trolls topple over in a tangle of limbs.]

My wallllllll! [click!]

[Well okay. Four suites, four spots. Okay. He still looks a little confused and maybe a little awkward?]

Okay so...der's a diamond and spades. Den clubs an a heart...mind tellin' a confused rabbit what dey mean?

[Round about way of asking but...she's a girl. Be nice to ladies. Always. Even if they're shipping you with another boy.]

Diamonds are moirails, which are like bestest furrends, and spades are fur people in hate with each other, clubs are fur auspistices, who stop people in hate furom killing each other or cheating on their quadrant, and hearts are fur matesprits, fur couples in pity!

[She is sure that Bugs is much less confused after her stellar explanation!]

Edited 2012-03-11 00:45 (UTC)

[Boy does she get excited over this.]

Uh, okay. I tink I get it.

[At least three of the four. As long as he shoves spades under 'frienemies' then yeah, three.]

Funny way ta get your kicks, toots but...eh. Bet der's worse stuff out der. *slyly now* So, does dat mean you and da little bull horn are ya know.

[He waggles his eyebrows a bit.]

I can expurrlain more if you like! It's one of my favouritest hobbies!

[She laughs as her cheeks tinge green from blushing.] Uh huh! Tavros is my matesprit now!

[Awww. Okay. He's just going to forgive her for the awkward now. Cause that blush is adorable.

He chuckles lightly.]

Knew the kid had it in him. Well congratulations, doll.

[He glances at the chart again then back at her then the chart before shrugging off screen.]

Sure, knock yerself out. I got da idea of the heart *cough* so...let's go for diamond next?

Thank youuuu! We're furry furry happy together! Tavros is the bestest.

Diamonds are the sign fur moirails! Moirails are fated to look afurter each other...they're bestest furrends and can talk about anything with each other when they need to sort out their feelings, and usually one is higher on the hemospectrum so they need someone to calm them down when they start losing their temper, and in return they purrtect the other troll!

[He's mentally writing this all down but, there still a heavy air of confusion. Kitty puns aside there is apparently a lot about trolls he hadn't guessed yet.]

Sound kinda borin'. Havin' someone tell ya not ta do somethin' cause it's dangerous. But the protectin' idea's kinda intriguin'.

[Though he will admit that troll danger is probably a lot worse then toon danger.]

Well, telling someone not to do something beclaws it's dangerous is purrt of the purrtecting thing...Equius has to do it with me sometimes, beclaws I get too excited about doing things and don't realize when they're not good fur me. But a troll calming their moirail down isn't about purrtecting them, it's about purrtecting other trolls! Because highbloods can be unpurrdictable and a bit unstable sometimes and are almost always furry strong, so someone needs to be there to help them be reasonable and see sense and not go on a rampage and hurt lots of people.

[Oh! He's heard Highblood before!]

Highblood? Like Gruesome?

[Now he looks thoughtful. Unstable...he's worked with that before. So much easier to pester.]

Uh, just how dangerous is a highblood? Jus' curious about all dis ya know.

Gruesome? Who's Gruesome?

[She looks confused, and then wary. Bugs, don't even think about it.]

Very. It's diffurent furom purrson to purrson - some of them can be really nice! But that doesn't change who they are either. All trolls are dangerous in the end, afurter all.

Uh he's kinda huge and lotsa hair. One of you trolls actually. Now what did he call himself?

[Would a 'too late' be acceptable?

Eh worry on that later. This whole thing is actually starting to get somewhat interesting. He leans back a little to relax.]

Okay, so fat part's da same. *chuckle* Doll, I tink that's somethin' that goes for a lot of people. Huh, guess a morail ain't so bad when you tink on it that way.

You were talking to the Grand Highblood?! Buuuuugs!! He's the worstest of them, and almost the most dangerous too! Most of the others have a moirail or are in control of themselves, but not him!

Yeah but-

[He didn't think it was a bad thing.]

Calm down, toots.

[Okay he can be pacifying, right? Well..no but he'll try anyways. His ears lower a bit and he looks a little worried.]

I kinda guessed he woirn't a nice guy. But ya don't gotta worry, kid.

You're my furrend, Bugs, of course I'll worry about you! He'd eat a nice hopbeast like you for breakfast!

Don't get into any arguments with him, okay?

Er...

[He looks at the SFC then at Nepeta. He really didn't want to worry her; so long as the GH started the fights, Bugs was literally not going to be harmed.]

Hey. Doll. How 'bout I show dat everytin'll be fine if I meet tall, dark and hairy?

[He looks a little guilty ok. No one ever worries about him. It's new and he finds he doesn't particularly like the guilt feeling.]

Well, if you want to? But I don't know how everything will just be fine if you end up in a situation like that!!

Well, ah, confidentially.

[He starts leaning forward and it looks like he is going to hit the SFC screen. Except...he doesn't.

He actually keeps going until he pops out of Nepeta's screen. It's a tight squeeze.]

Heh, guess I should cut down on da carrots. Hang on, doll.

[With a little grunt he manages to pop out completely. Though he politely faces away from the wall. she didn't seem too happy with that being shown.]

Tada!

[Nepeta was leaning in close to the screen to listen to what he was going to tell her - or so she thought, before his head was popping right out of her SFC, and she squealed in surprise but managed to hang onto it anyway so that she wouldn't send him crashing to the ground.]

Bugs!! [There was only one thing to do in this instance; tacklegreet him with a hug.] How did you do that?!?!

[Kitty pounces are expected now so he just sort of bounces when they hit the floor.]

Eh, da fourth wall don't really bother me.

[He does offer a grin in apology for the squeal he caused her though.]

Just one a da tings that'll keep Laughin' boy from gettin' an edge over me. So. No worryin'. Don't think you can pull off the cue ball look.

[Sorry, Bugs, that grin is lost on her since she's busy trying to nuzzle on him now.]

So if things get bad you can just escape really really easily?

Yeeeeap.

[Erk. Awkward nuzzles. He wriggles a little to sit up. Open affection is still knew to the bunny. Even if it's just the friendly sort.]

Escape is just an open hole away.

[It's a good round about understanding so. He's going with it.]

It's not just about escaping, though.

[She stops snuggling quite as hard, letting him sit up, but still continues hugging him.]

Do you know what he can do? He's a subjuggulator. That means he can draw all your fears out and use them against you! You could end up frozen on the spot in fear and not be able to escape!

Alright so she ain't buyin' it.

[He listens carefully. Huh...fears. That could be helpful to know. Of course now he's trying to figure out just what those fears would be but he's got time for that.]

Look doll, der's a lot more to it. Even if he is a sub-whateverator.

But Buuugs.

[Look at these sad worried eyes, Bugs. Can you really resist them?]

Edited 2012-03-17 14:38 (UTC)

[He can't. Kitty eyes. That's cheating.

Bugs erks a bit and just looks at that face.]

Yeah? I...

[Okay closing his eyes doesn't work when she says his name like that. A small grumble before let's out a little puff of breath.]

Alright, alright jus'...don't make dat face kid. I'll be careful.
