[Text] Journey start
really
is this really how this is going to go down
this feels a little like dejavu but without the hey ive been here before
like the circumstances feel somewhat passingly familiar
me and some weird pony just hanging out and waiting to see whats up
maybe ill name her black beauty not that shes black
youre a she right
im not looking to check fyi
you do that on your own time
were new in town and too cool for school or so someone calling herself my mom seems to think
ive seen my mom shes way hotter than that
there is a clear path of how did this dude came to be when you look at mom
not so much here sorry lady
but you can keep thinking whatever thats cool
now seriously what the hell is going on
[ooc: Color text opt out over here.]
Text
ill drop over here out of shock
what
it took them long enough
take it youve run into them a few times
Text
they pulled a train heist at the end of last year.
which on the one hand, obviously sucked because there was a bomb on the train and we could have died.
but on the other, how many people can say they've been part of a train heist?
but other than that, i haven't really had any run-ins.
been on the receiving end of some of the things they've done though, everyone has.
exploding bugs, crazy wireless broadcasts that make the pokemon go nuts, ridiculous amounts of garbage, pokecenter explosions, and my personal favorite: airborne mutagens.
most of these didn't exactly work the way they planned but they still managed to wreck some havoc.
Text
speaking of which what part of heroic kill makes game over did you not get
this means pushing people out of the way and taking hits is not going to be a pop back up for us
you could have just yanked mom down or out of the way and still got what you wanted done
not that im not glad you helped her but still
seeing as i doubt youll ever be offed for just reasons only thing to avoid is the hero kaput
Text
ohhh you mean that god tier stuff or whatever?
rose and vriska told me about that.
you must be from after you and rose set up the bomb or whatever then, right?
hate to break it to you, but none of that matters here.
i guess you haven't noticed yet, but this world has a staunch no-powers policy.
though for the record, supposedly nobody can die here.
so i guess you sort of got to keep that perk. without limitations this time though.
Text
but what do you mean told
are you saying were all from different points in our timeline thats straight up crazy talk
anyway yeah it dont matter dick here but youre from the past ok
no dude the whole godtier thing is different you die but you come back
pending the two conditions but who gives a fuck
tell me what pokemon youve netted
im at the edge of my seat waiting for what magic little monsters youve got on your roster
Text
yeah, that's exactly what i am saying.
timeline consistency mean jack dick to whatever magical force it is that brings us here.
i hadn't even gotten jade into the game yet before i wound up here.
when rose first showed up she was waaaaay behind.
then she passed out for a week and woke back up with a whole bunch of new memories.
i have like forty pokemon though at this point though dude, do you really want me to list them all?
Text
come on get with the listing john
Text
though i guess technically i can cross krookodile and murkrow off that list since you're back now.
seppucrow still holds a torch for you and only you, bro.
i would hate to come between that.
Text
and hahaha sure ill take seppucrow back and giveem a yo im back
i got saddled with ponyta this go around
he can also have nakodile if you want. john taught him how to nak b/c he is such a good friend
the list just keeps growing.
she will be overjoyed, i'm sure.
hahahah that's perfect. He'll take the nakker.
now for the hard part
where are you
he really does love you, dave. promise. best bros 4 lyfe.
rose, jade, vriska, tavros, and i are staying at the other house for now.
we can come and get you though because fly is basically the best move in existence.
in fact, rose will probably insist on that since gamzee just got back too.
and he's kind of nuts this time around.
He loves you too, bro. Best bro. He's going to find a pokemon that will cling to your face.
hes sort of following me
yeah hes nuts and really taking offense to my charming personality i cant imagine why im such an awesome dude
yes do it.
any chance your ponyta will let you ride it?
maybe you can ditch him.
because it's going to take us a while though.
we're like...three cities away and while fly is great, it's not instantaneous like it is in the games.
let me go find rose and jade and see what they want to do.
He'll figure out the perfect name for it and send it. Then sit back and watch.
but im only a bit smaller than she is
i can stall him as long as it takes for you to pop over
john deserves it, tbh. this is the second time he's done this. it was shuppet the first time.
just gotta go get the gaggle of fliers out of the pc.
just do what you can, because it's probably going to take at least 16-20 hours.
which, before you say anything, was better than how we used to have to do this meetup thing.
jdsakjd that's beautiful
hes getting really handsy
its getting creepy
this is what i missed when he was in hiding i am cool with him going into witness protection again
it's what dave gets for leaving him all the time :T
on the meteor or whatever, you mean?
why was he hiding?
wow rude not like he can help it.
held by glowing broads with an urge to settle things in a messy way
he knows but it's still sad and frustrating and he is the pranking master. JUST LET HIM COPE.
that means absolutely nothing to me but i can understand chainsaws.
getting cut in half might suck.
but with how he's acting now i can't really blame whoever this glowing broad is for wanting to give it a try.
He's down with that but he will so counter it in that bro way. Which is being a troll.
and from what ive heard yeah she has a legit reason to do it
so i heard about mutations happening here
what did you get
he wouldn't have it any other way.
i had electric powers when it first hit, but those went away after about a week.
which was actually a good thing because electric powers actually suck balls to tell you the truth.
like you think they would be pretty cool until you find out that you can't touch people without shocking them and you fry every electronic device that comes into your hand if you're not careful.
it's all fun and games until you accidentally blow up a bathroom.
there were some physical side effects too and they're kind of starting to go away but nowhere near fast enough.
you know what, it's probably easier to just show you.
it's not like you weren't going to find out soon enough anyway.
[And with that, he flips over to video. It should be pretty obvious why Karkat suggested John as an example of what exactly happened to the infected people. In the three months since the outbreak, the only side effects that have gone away were the golden yellow splotches all over John's skin. The stripes have dulled though they're unfortunately still visible.]
[The curly horns, fangs, blue lips, and cat-like pupils though...not so much. John swears the saber-fangs are shrinking but "shrinking" isn't "gone" and he still can't talk without drooling or lisping.]
[After about thirty seconds and a thumb's up though, it's back to text.]
like i said: this has been my personal favorite rocket scheme.
[sarcasm.avi]
perfect
wow dude
[Then video comes on and Dave raises an eyebrow at all the changes to his best friend's person. Karkat hadn't prepared him for this. He gives John a thumbs up before it's back to text.]
any idea when it will wear off
Re: perfect
but you know, i wasn't exactly expecting to see all THAT when i looked in the mirror.
no idea. it started wearing off a little bit at the end of last month.
i had all these big yellow splotches on my skin before.
hopefully the rest of it will go pretty soon though. am getting tired of having to write or type everything out so that people can actually understand what the fuck i'm saying.
no subject
or even someone elses place
that seems like going way out of line
too bad these things dont work on our thoughts then it would be easier for you
