re:updates and fan art and restlessness

[nitidus]

As touching as this sudden re-interest in myself is ... I must admit I am feeling marginally ill-willed at being pushed to the back burner for so long. It's understandable, of course, but it is no less disheartening. It's boring being left to my own devices when there is very little to do with myself.

On the subject of my recent going's on - our new acquaintances are rather a hand full. I think I might enjoy getting to know their back stories a bit better just as soon as they have all calmed their collective shit, as Dave would put it.

As for the pits of the internet you go to - I have to admit that this is cute, if not entirely improbable. This - we won't speak of that.

you just want to peel back their layers and get a look inside admit it
you have that knife twitching and youre getting ready to go all sweeney todd on their minds
maybe youll bake a pie who knows
though holy shit i cant even believe gramps egbertharley exists
just how can anyone top john in the wonder dork department my mind is blown and everything i know is a lie
fourty years later ill be laying on my floor with a bottle whiskey and a dire need to shave going what the hell was that
and yeah no lets not speak of the second image
put it out of our heads and focus on the incredible leap frog yelling fish hitler

[nitidus]

We'll come back to that, rest assured. I'd like to speak more about your future prospects and how bleak they are. At length, of course.

He is quite the character. I have to wonder if his enthusiasm is Jade's doing? It's a mystery. Perhaps I should ask him? I have to admit I am terribly curious about his universe.

[moveslikestrider]

ugh come on leave it be buried under soft peat moss to eventually become oil
or something

i think were going to see and i really hope i dont have to step in and stop him or maybe i should
i mean were supposed to be figuring things out and leaping at people doesnt seem to fit that bill
even if it is hilarious

[nitidus]

You know I can't do that, Dave.

Were you paying attention? From what I can gather, her pre-scratch self will one day destroy his world. I think he got a little over zealous? There is a lot going on.
Karkat seems rather quiet in this whole exchange too. How unlike him.

[moveslikestrider]

come on were on the twelve step program now you can wear the patch no one will think less of you
im already way ahead of you but ill wait
we can descend down the stone pedestals in a timely fashion that means leaving the past behind us
hakuna matata man

i sort of checked out once it became clear they were going to girlfriend fight over shit but i got that part technically it is her scratched self thats doing it
pay attention to the details rose you can do it just like hunting down blues clues
look for the bright blue john colored paws
yeah but for once i agree with him how does this shit even matter to us except for you know crazy space alien queen that needs a boot in her tamborine

[nitidus]

How long have you been seeing yourself as my gentle caretaker, Dave?

He doesn't seem to realize that, however. Perhaps you should interject and tell him.
I can't really see how it matters to us personally, but I can see why it would mean a great deal to Terezi. And any information on our future foe we can is no bad thing. Besides, aren't you in the least bit curious?

[moveslikestrider]

do i have to set the date
because ive been poking at you and nudging you all this time to stop that crazy talk
also pleading but thats diff

i dont know what hes thinking and spider girl seems to have it handled
but if it gets too hot ill be vaulting in to whap him with the newspaper and go down boy
dont bite the mailman
yeah uh i think its been a shock even to her all things considered
but i think our best idea is for you and spider girl to go talk while we mingle then you come back to filter all that crap through so we know the important shit without wanting to fall asleep inside a dream bubble which would that form a bubble in a bubble
would that work

[nitidus]

Dave, this is incredibly interesting. Perhaps I can pencil you in for a more in-depth discussion on how you view our relationship.

I'm going to need a pen and a very large tome to write notes in.

[moveslikestrider]

what

hahahah good luck with that

[nitidus]

Now, now. Don't be shy.

[moveslikestrider]

what shy this is getting back on topic
like what if we had been raised together by a drunk and an ironic ninja
thesis on it go

[nitidus]

I don't imagine we would be any different.
Perhaps I would eat a lot more pizza.

[heritier]

you guys are being such dorks!
what is with that jake kid? geez, he's a little high-strung!

rose, also ... some images should be burned.

[nitidus]

The resemblance between you both is uncanny.

Excuse me?

[heritier]

only on the surface! i'm not dumb enough to go leaping at some random troll.
i think karkat would feel morally obliged to be the first i friend-tackled down a flight of stairs, anyway.

the picture! you know the one, auuuugh.
incest shenanigans are rampant over there, aren't they? i am so apprehensive of arriving and disturbing some kind of mad sexy party!!!
bluh.

[nitidus]

I'm sure he would completely and platonically enthralled by such a thing.

Oh?
You're right. This meteor has been simply rife with vague incestuous shenanigans. There have been rare instances of sleep as we all so up in each other's grills.

[heritier]

i know you are pulling my leg but i still think i will exit stage left now.
for my own sanity.

[nitidus]

Come now John. What's a little incest between friends?

[moveslikestrider]

dude run while you still can
run
while
you
can

[heritier]

bluh!!!!!

[heritier]

i'm so glad jade doesn't have the hots for me!
dave, maybe you should tell rose you like another girl on the meteor...
or something.
anything to stop your future babies having five heads and only two fingers on each hand!!
i get so worried about you guys, i swear.

[nitidus]

Are you feeling quite alright?

[heritier]

you can't marry dave, rose!
it's like in back to the future when marty almost makes out with his mom, you just shouldn't do it to family!
oh my god.
no, that's a bad comparison, i can't even think straight!

[nitidus]

As entertaining this could be to keep this farce going, I am mildly concerned that you're taking this so seriously.

Perhaps you're worried about the Mayor being Dave's best man rather than yourself?

[moveslikestrider]

what
oh god no
shes lying man
On my end theres just been can town
