ugh shit my head feels like it got smashed up against a couple of walls
if this is what a hangover feels like that noise can skip right off somewhere
i dont even care where just somewhere??
ahahaha that was not a witty sentence at all
f minus for dave strider and his attempts to sort himself out
speaking of that why does it feel like im in a vice thats
[There's a rustling sound from the gear followed by a sharp inhale of breath.]
is this for real seriously
i cant even decide what to think about this because im not getting enough air in this two sizes too small shirt get up
i mean it makes my ass look incredible
this is so stupid i cant even lift a leg without my pants threatening to give up the ghost
who the hell decided to shrink my sweet gear thats just a traversity
well its not exactly sweet its something out of a renaissance fair
how the fuck am i going to get out of this stuff its pasted onto me like glue
who the hell would do that though that just seems dumber than spending all this time remarking about this
[There's a growl that echoes before Dave keeps going.]
what oh hey
i remember you
feels like its been a year since we shared the sky together and went darting around like we lost our minds
why did i give you shades that just seems so dumb in retrospect like trying to pay homage to something when the real deal is around
but between you and me this doesnt feel like my life anymore
i couldnt really believe it when i had it because its so picture perfect straight out of some fantasy a lonely guy might have

--RRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH-- wait what the fuck?

[Dave's soliloquy about his ill-fitting clothes is brought to an abrupt halt by the tail end of a very loud, very aggravated shout. It might be hard to tell exactly who the voice belongs to at first, since it can be a little difficult to judge nonsensical yelling. But once he starts speaking, it becomes clear that the voice belongs to John Egbert.]

Where the hell am I? [A slight pause, during which time we can only assume that John takes survey of his surroundings and discovers...] DAVE!!!! Oh my god, it's great to finally see you again! Wherever here is!

[There's an array of vague bumping, stumbling, and rustling noises that we're going to assume is John getting out of his own bed and moving over to Dave's. Because that's exactly what it is. Unfortunately, he still doesn't seem to have remembered how to use his indoor voice because he's still kind of yelling.]

I missed you so mu-- where are my sweet god tier pajamas? What the hell is this, it doesn't even fit!!!

[There's a sound almost like laughter but it's a bit muffled.]
ok ok lets remember not to bellow like some beast
were in a hospital here
what if you woke some poor old lady or something

Why are we in a hospital...?

[It's quieter, but...ultimately, not enough. Because before Dave gets the chance to answer another growl can be heard, but it's decidedly not of the Pokemon race.]

Jesus fucking Christ will the two of you SHUT THE FUCK UP?!

[It sounds like something fluffy and soft hit at least one of them at a rather high velocity followed by a second one and then more from the now recognizable voice of Rose Lalonde.]

I swear to god neither of you know how the fuck to be quiet do you? Is that a hard concept? I thought not but apparently you both still know how to surprise me! Jesus fuck my head feels like it's splitting open ugh. Fucking asinine Skaia-vexing addlepates I swear to GOD.

Well. Some of your current clothing is probably salvagable with alterations, if you should send me the things you wish repaired through the computers and I will do what I can to see about resizing them. And we'll have to take measurements, of course.

Are Rose and John in the same predicament?

Yep. John finally had a growth spurt. He is the little engine that could. [He laughs a bit, glancing back at the other two before facing the gear again.]

I'll dig through my stuff and see what I want to try getting altered and send it all to you. ...it's funny, not so sure I want the godtier jammies sized up. Kinda want to craft my own image that doesn't reek of the game. That weird?

How does that even work, you go to sleep and dream things, but they're real things, and you can wake up older?

[He's been trying to get his head around it ever since he found out and it's all so strange and should seem impossible, if not for the fact that they were already in an alternate dimension with no chakra and magic animals.]

Hey, you should get her to talk to Granny Tsunade, if anyone knows good hangover cures, it's her.

Oh, nah it's just something that happens here sometimes. You're minding your own business and doing your own thing then suddenly BAM! You're unconscious for a week or so and then you wake up and remember a whole bunch of shit from back home and you're starving because you haven't eaten in a week.

But yeah, it's actually normal. Though sometimes you don't wake up with new memories? You just don't know until you wake up.

So you just guaranteed the mystery will be solved?

[ There's clear amusement in her voice; it would be nice, anyway. ]

Why does that sound familiar?

[Unfortunately, since John doesn't remember Tenten yet, he can't seem to remember that she's mentioned Naruto to him before.]

Eh, whatever. Anyway, nice to meet you. And that was partially a lie on my part. Because I haven't completely forgotten everything, it's just coming back to me kinda slowly? Like all my memories from here are fuzzy but all the ones from back home are sharp and clear in my mind. So yeah, dream is probably the best way to put it. But right now, the dream feels real and I guess what was actually real feels like a dream? Urgh... never mind, not even going down that road.

[ ......

............really, this is a thing?

Rin needs to give up expecting normal answers. ]

Oh, well...in that case, I'm glad it was nothing serious? [ She thinks. Possibly. ] I hadn't realized that was something I had to, you know, look out for.

[ She'll have to keep a close eye on everyone she knows who isn't dead, since she assumes the dead don't have to deal with that nonsense. ]

Is there anything else I should be warned about that wasn't in any of the guides? I'd think that periodic passing out might be mentioned, but...

[[Rose doesn't jump, but she does look up. And then there's water and aspirin and she's taking them gratefully. Even if she did already have some of both already. Never hurts to have more.]]

Are those for me too?

[[Sun glasses. Jesus thank you for sunglasses.]]

Blame Dave. [[Grumble grumble.]]

[ n o p e, Aradia's pretty sure it's a problem, but she wanted to at least let him know that. In case, you know. He worried. ]

I now have three prehistoric flying dinosaurs on my hands! I think I could start a museum at this rate.

You know, if living fossils were an acceptable substitute for actual fossils. Which I haven't been able to locate any of since I go there! Did you know that fossil types were apparently revived from fossils, though? I think that sounds like a fascinating process, but I haven't been able to track down who does this or how, which is slightly maddening!

The one who talks a lot?

[ Since the other one said Dave, that probably means he is Not Dave, right? ]

Well that sure wasn't cryptic at all. Nope, does not require any further delving into whatsoever, we are just going to ignore it and move on!

So how are you, Karkat? Man, it feels like I haven't talked to you in forever but I'm going to assume that that isn't actually the case. Anything exciting happen during my apparently week-long siesta that I didn't plan on taking?

Yeah. He has a habit of rambling to himself. And rambling to anyone who will listen. And I'm pretty sure it was his gear that posted all that.

I don't think that is strange at all. Frankly, there is little about Sgrub I would wish to hold onto, at this point. I miss being myself, but that is hardly specific to the game.

You should send them to me anyway, though. You never know when you may change your mind.

I think he's the first voice i heard, and it looks like that ID is the same one that responded to me first, so.

[ YEP, IT WAS DAVE. She has identified one of the mysterious voices! Though if she reads the other conversations, it shouldn't be too hard... ]

But I was apparently mistaken about what was going on. ...Which, honestly, I should have expected.

Did you assume that the two boys are a couple of idiots? If so, you were completely correct.

I... [Breathe, John. Breeeeeaaaaatttthhheeeee. Nope okay, more laughing for a minute.]

[Any second now.]

[Okay, there we go. Calming back down and doing the deep breath thing.]

Hoooooo... okay. Sorry I just... that was a good one and I'm just really glad you're back, okay? Even if for me it's really only been like a couple of hours since I last saw you.

We're good now though. It's all good. So how many days ago is "a few," exactly?

[[What no why is it gone? She wanted that kiss. She glances at the pizza, then at Dave, then at John. And now she's sitting down, wiping at her eyes.]]

Thanks Dave.

[[Rose is more than willing to take the guiding, laying down as is obviously suggested by Jane.]]

Mm...thank you. [[Who knew laying down could feel so good?]]

Ah, I didn't know that. He hasn't told me anything yet, so...I don't know why he'd find you unsettling.

[[...she's going to laugh. Laughing hurts her head like something fierce, but jesus christ that's great.]]

I will make sure I am right. And no, I don't believe so. I'm fairly sure I remember everything.

[[Can't help but chuckle.]]

Nag, nag, nag Karkat. I have pizza. I promise I am eating enough.

Yeah. Well, somewhat. Dave and John obviously did before me. But yes, we did. I suppose we also fell asleep at the same time as well.

[Let's not even get started on the moirail thing. That's going to be a whole different emotional crisis when it finally hits him. Probably in the middle of dinner or something else laughably terrible.]

Shhh, you will jinx me! I really don't want to get stabbed again it sucks big time. Like, I don't know if Meenah ever got stab happy on you during PirateQuest, but it's a terrible way to go and I really don't advise it.

But yeah, I get what you mean. It's kind of hard to really explain the differences in a way that doesn't come off as offensive one way or the other. We're just very different species when it comes to certain topics. And killing is one of them.

[He waves a hand dismissively.]

And I have kind of had enough of that topic for now, personally. So instead, what was you mentioned about having new pictures to show me?
