[There's a lot of clunk sounds suddenly and a lot of angry muttering on the other end.]

THIS TASTES METALLIC AND GROSS AND NOT WHAT I SIGNED UP FOR. MAYBE MY TONGUE TURNED OFF? IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE? HOW DO THESE BUTTONS WORK? WHAT IS THIS THING? WHERE IS MY CANE?

WHERE AM I? [That mumbling has turned more into yelling and it sounds like she isn't even aware that its recording.] THIS WORLD SMELLS LIKE NOTHING. A WHOLE LOT OF NOTHING.

WHAT'S GOING ON?

[If you're in New Bark Town, you'll probably see a girl sitting on the ground with her Dratini. She's shaking her Gear like that will actually do something. Otherwise, she looks really upset right about now. She keeps patting the area around her whenever she tries to pet her Dratini. Honestly, she keeps missing that damn thing completely. How do function in real life?]

I...

[ he is struggling with that really. Karkat isn't sure he wants to go back. No benefit for him. He isn't really needed or anything. Well Dave says he is but that was an opinion more than fact. ]

I don't know if I do or don't. It's complicated.

I'm useless here, Karkat. I can't do anything on my own right now! [She's already ran into a door for Pete's sake.]

Other than the prospect of having dragons like Pyralspite, what am I supposed to do? On the other hand, everyone seems to be here and we don't have to deal with the meteor or anything else that will happen.

I know and that part I don't like any more than you do.

If I might suggest something? Get a psychic type. They can talk in your head... I don't see why they might not be able to give you mind pictures of your terrain. Won't be completely blind then, right?

[ just... throwing that out there real quick. ]

We'll go back though, eventually. Time stops when we leave and resumes its course when we return... And almost everyone returns one way or another.

Someone is researching and getting me one. [She's already at her tricks, Karkat. Way ahead of you.

It does pay to have a disability here at least.]

It seems nice here. I mean, the meteor wasn't that bad by any means, but here seems legitimately nice. Minus the human female parts that I am not going to talk about at all!

There's nothing good on that meteor though either.

[ not for him anyway. the only thing that he had been okay with is meeting dead alternate friends. ]

Also please don't bring up that weird female human shit. I was creeped out the first time because of John talking to me about human puberty.

There wasn't a lot good about what happened to us in general, looking back. We were all kind of fucked up. We still are!

I'm not too happy about it and I am pretending it isn't a thing until it has to be.

Exactly. There's still a chance of success though, and that's cool. I can respect that. People have important shit that they need to do. I can get behind that too.

[ but he's just kind of there. on the sidelines. there's nothing special or necessary about him. 8V sort of... Dave might have helped a little, but not enough to completely change his mind on the matter. ]

A-anyway. Just do yourself a favor and lock yourself up in some kind of small fortress when that "event" occurs.

It makes me wonder what we're trying to win. We never got to see what it was.

[It had to be worth everything they went through right?]

Do you say that from experience? Now I really don't want it to happen.

I have no idea anymore. Is it even fucking worth it...

[ MOVING ON. ]

Let's just say, I heard Rose just have at the public.

I am automatically apprehensive about this monthly human female problems now!

Because we all know Rose can be very scary when she wants to be.

She'd put any subjuggulator to shame.

She could have them wrapped around her little pinky finger! I'd pay to hear that!

What... Wouldn't pay to sniff or lick it?

Not here! Everything here kind of tastes gross. I mean, I licked my arm earlier out of curiosity and it was not that great.

Back home would be a different story though.

I was kind of talking about back home. What are the chances that a subjuggulator would ever arrive here?

Most of us got dragged here? I don't think it's exactly out of the question.

Could you imagine one ending up here as a human? [Haha, that would be funny except they would probably try to go on some murderous rampage.]

I can imagine and I would want front row seats with grubcorn in hand.

I hope it happens now. Someone will have to give me a play by play. Down to the expression of their face.

Might want Rose in on it too, if that's the case. She'd give a decent description.

Rose could write an entire book about it by the time everything blows over!

Not really. I don't think she's been writing any tomes in this universe.

That's because everyone here is catching pokebeast and trying to be the very best.

And aren't you going to do the same?

Probably! I want a team of dragons though. That's the only team worthwhile for me.

[She'll probably end up having more than just dragons though.]
