> 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!]

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.

[She flings her arms around him.]

Thank you, Bugs! I'd be so sad if anything hurt you!

[He sort of holds her shoulders in a half-hug. He's figured it would be best to just get used to the hugs but he's still looking at what he can see of her face.]

Okay. Dat's somethin' I don't want. I'd rather have ya gigglin' den cryin'.

[Small pat to the head. Hey, kitties like that right?]

[Kitties do, and so does Nepeta. She rubs her head against his hand, then reaches out to pet him too. All that soft fluffy fur is just too tempting.]

I like giggling better than crying too fur sure! So you have to stay safe for me, okay?? And for all your other friends!

[His ears flatten out automatically and he glances up. His eyes moving up and down with each pat.

Then he catches what she says and looks back at her.]

Er, all my other friends? Doll...I'll level wit you. Dis whole havin' someone worry over little ol' me isn't really part of my act.

[Bugs. Bugs you are so cute she just wants to keep you forever.]

You don't have any other friends?! That's awful!!! I'll introduce you to all of mine, I will, and then you'll have plenty.

[Bugs is a horrible pet. Really. He hogs the bathroom.]

Well, I got frienemies. Does dat count?

[More friends. He's gotta think this over a little.]

[Nepeta is allergic to baths, giving her an excuse not to have any just makes the arrangement even better. Until her moirail notices and steps in.]

Uhmmm, maybe? Friend means both friend and enemy for trolls anyway, really, but I like the meaning where you play together and look after each other more!

Well dat's pretty convenient.

[Equius is good at bathing kitties.]

Oh I don't mind playin'. Jus' need ta remember not ta play too hard.

[He's had a lot of practice at it! Too much.]

Too hard?? I don't think there's such a thing as playing too hard, nuh uh!

[He should make a dunking booth. Might easier, and more fun.]

er, I mean like too rough. *chuckle* Most dogs don't like ta play catch wit a stick a TNT.

Ohhh, okay. I know what you mean now! Equius never lets me play dangerous games anyway, when the others used to FLARP he stopped me from joining them and I was really mad about it but it turned out to be a good thing in the end. Only safe games!

Flarp? What da heck is flarp?

[Gah...it's like a foreign language. But if it's something dangerous that trolls do he should probably figure out just what it is.]

Fatal live action role playing!

[Emphasis on the fatal.]

F-fatal?

Yeah, dat don't sound like any sort of fun. Dis Equius kid had the right idea.

Yup yup, he did...he's always looking out fur me even when we fight about stuff. Especially when the FLARPing ended with a lot of my friends badly hurt or dead...

That's him over there on the wall with me! [She points to one of the large pictures in the middle, her and the blueblooded troll surrounded by diamonds.]

Hmmmm.

[Bugs looks over that part of the wall. Yeap! Equius is now going to be Blue Boy forever.

He flexes his arm, a small little bump popping up.]

Kid eats his vitamins don't he?

Heehee, Equius is the STRONGest! [Can you hear those capital letters, Bugs?] He's lots bigger than in that picture, taller than me and lots of fun to climb on!

[Yes, yes he can. And now he's got a grin back on his face.]

Somehow, wit you...I'll take dat literally.

I meant it literally! He's nice and tall so when I climb onto his back I'm really high up! And it's nice and high for me to pounce on him too!

[Poor blue boy.]

*chuckles* Oh mighty huntress and her noble knight. Heh.

[Most people would think so, but for all his grumbling Nepeta knows he doesn't actually mind.]

No, no, the mighty huntress and her noble steed! Equius likes hoofbeasts more than knights.

[Who can mind anything Nepeta does? She too darn cute.]

Now dere's an image ta keep in ya head.

Er...I'm goin' with horses here. Dat right?

[He's learning! Yay!]

[She agrees with this whole-heartedly. She is the cutest!]

Uh huh, that's exactly right! Equius really likes them, he thinks they're all [AHEM] Noble and magnificent creatures that it behooves us to admire and respect and not go chasing around fields yes Nepeta that means you. [Yep, totally trying to imitate his deep voice and way of talking over there.]
