( alright here. XD )

( teach me the ways over our vancest ;p )

(AHEM...)

(Ideas are piling up one by one. Please choose between: Snow, Aquarium, Power, Animal, Cliche, or Chibi :33)

(....Momooo)

( O: cliche sounds fun? but so doesn't snow Dx fuuuu .. we need a randomizer like your shipping generator... ovo cliche? )

(Hint: Cliche is reeeeeally cliche. Like. Humanstuck Highschool fic euuurghhh :33)

( ah :3 sure why not. )

(Huehhh... let's combine power, cliche, and chibi. That works soooooo cutely omf)

( O: Yes! Begin? :3 )

(Waitwaitwait XDD I gotta tell you what they mean so you don't get confuzzled uvu)

( QvQ' fine. Please do so then. )

(You already know what Cliche is, so now for Chibi and Power. Power is like... developing accidental telekinesis with the other person. Wait... forget chibi. We can mix that up real well with another idea of mine sometime else. ANYWHO. Basically this mixture is that the two brothers - YES BROTHERS. I WANT ANGST :D - go to the same highschool, Kankri is a Senior, Karkat's a Junior. They're walking home together one day because Kankri convices Karkat they don't spend nearly enough time together. Karkat is only thinking about his friends, I guess. Really attached to Sollux mebbe, who knows. Anyways, they're arguing the entire way home and both think one thought at the -exact- same time 'I JUST WISH I COULD GET INSIDE HIS HEAD TO SEE WHAT THE HE.LL HE'S THINKING!' and poof... next morning, telekinesis and much awkwardness -w-)

(Chibi would equal lonely Kankri by himself, maybe just a recent college graduate who's still looking for a job, and one day after picking up groceries or whatever, he spots an eerie building in between two buildings that he's walked by about a million times but never seen before. Curious, he walks in, and the shop turns out to be filled with mysterious looking antiques, as well as one singular woman (Disciple, the shipping queen >:33) covered in many veils so her face is concealed from him. She asks him why he's sad, and startled, since he'd been smiling not even a second ago, he replies truthfully 'I'm lonely, tbh' and he can hear her small giggle as she hands him a dusty golden egg about the size of a basketball player's fist, saying it will give him good luck. He tries to refuse, not having very much money, but she insists that it's free and pushes him out of the shop, giggling the entire time. Out on the street again, he puts the egg in one of his bags and walks home. ----

(A day later, as night falls, he begins to hear crackling noises and frightened that it might be a rat, grabs a broom and searches his room for any small creatures among his furniture, then finds the golden egg he'd stuffed in his drawer only shelled remains. Shocked, he hears more crackling and squeaking and finds mini-Karkat stuck in the crevice between his bed nd the wall :33)

( QvQ AWEEE! YOU ARE THE LORD OF RP'S. SERIOUSLY! )

( >'v'< I agree with what ever interest you most. )

(Shisa, I can't decide Q-Q)

(Halp)

( O: we could do one now, then save the other for another post? i suppose power? :p )

(Aight, power it is then ^o^ You start, because I described all that siht to you >u>)

(While you do the thing, I'm going to go take a five second shower. brb rly quickly)

( OvO ... Mwahahahayayay ) CG: SOD OFF! I'M NOT GOING TO LISTEN TO IT! * Karkat rages, kicking the school doors outward, rays of sunlight hitting the once dim lighted halls. Squinting, he takes two steps at a time. Escaping the olders new issue to preech(QvQ preach? ) about. *

(preach. like peach, but with an r.)
TI: //Kankri runs out the doors behind his younger brother, fast-walking at the twitchy pace he usually did when he's trying to convey something. He catches up easily, and continues talking, despite the other's protests// I jyst think we don't spend enough time together, is all! You're always 'hanging out' with your... buddy, what's-his-name-with-the-3D-glasses, and I never see you anymore! Walking home isn't that bad, Karkat, I don't understand why you're so angry with me for telling him that we were going to be going home from school together...

CG: * gritting his teeth, he strains his eyes to the other, Karkat huffs * It's Sollux, and what you did was just rude. Telling him that. You didn't even know him and I had plans to hang later! Let alone ask.

TI: That's the thing, though! You and him ALWAYS have plans! I don't even see you at the dinner table anymore, and it's frustrating to know that while I'm sitting at the table alone, you're out playing video games and horsing around with Sollux! Your grades are dropping, Karkat, and it's extremely worrisome to watch such an intelligent pupil fail their classes. I know dad isn't around much, but that's because he's working his b.utt off to support us and keep a roof over our heads! And how are you repaying him, exactly? Huh? //Throws arms in the air in a gesture of exasperation//

CG: Does it matter if you're home alone! Won't you be off to college next year? You'll be even more lonesome! Deal with it! And having 1! Maybe 2, 3; bad grades doesn't mean nothing! I could easily rasie them if I wanted. As for dad. I have nothing to say about him. * eyeing the ground, he speeds up his pace in hopes of ditching the other, towards a cross way. *

CG: * an headach already starts to form in the back of his mind. Really wishing Kankri would stuff a sock in it. Knowing there to be no available to use. Karkat settles for his headphones, fishing them out of his pockets as he sprints on *

TI: //Repulsed by Karkat's horrid attitude, but compelled to stick to his side if only to knock some sense into the younger boy// KARKAT VANTAS, YOU GET BACK HERE RIGHT THIS INSTANT! I AM NOT FINISHED TALKING TO YOU. IF I'M SAYING SOMETHING, YOU LISTEN FOR YOUR OWN GOOD! I'LL SCREAM IT TO THE WORLD IF I HAVE TO, BUT WITH THE WAY YOUR GRADES ARE NOW, MOST COLLEGES WOULDN'T EVEN *TOUCH* YOUR GPA! //Grasps his brother's shoulder once they reach the other end of the crosswalk, and spins him around, feeling like he was breathing fire// And I wouldn't be lonesome if you were there! When I go to college, I'd be happy to receive texts or emails from you, but at this rate, and with your recent history, you probably would throw your phone away the moment you see my caller ID on your screen!

TI: //Noticing the headphones and the glazed, angered look in Karkat's eyes, he hisses and rips them out, throwing it on the ground// I'm DONE with you! I GIVE UP! You're a USELESS WASTE OF SPACE, and I can't TAKE IT ANYMORE! //Slaps Karkat across the face, huffing and puffing, and then turns on his heel, heading for home without Karkat//

(//Smacks lips// Kankri is saucy! O:)

CG: YOU'RE JUST A SIBLING! NO MORE NO LESS! I DON'T CARE IF YOU'LL BE LEAVING. THIS YEAR, NEXT OR EVEN NOW! I. DON'T. GIVE A RATS ASES. * slaps his hand away, in no sort of mood for physical contact. * AND YOUR RIGHT. I WOULD EVEN TOUCH THE PHONE AGAIN IF YOU MESSAGE, CALLED, IM'S,VOICE MAILED OR ANYTHING DEALING WITH YOU! * he hisses the last sentence posion dripping on the words. *

(KK is so cruel :'D //Weeps at your awesome preformance and applauds//)

( ohhhh <3 ) CG: * seeing the Kankri storm off, rubbing his cheek, knowing it might end up as a swollen burise later. Karkat heads in a different direction. Glad to be rid of him. Knowing his way around he lets his own sense guide him. Heading anywhere but home*

(Okay. Now they think the thing <33)

( Kankri's out burst! <3 MY GOG LOVING IT! QvQ * huggles your face * )

TI: //Stomping off, his eye twitching, and furious tears springing out the corners of his eyes, he wipes his face with his bright red sweater sleeve and glares at the ground. 'I just wish I could get inside his head to see what the H.ELL he's thinking! Why's he being such a jerk this year?!' Kankri thinks as he shoves the key in the lock and twists it unnessecarily harsh, kicking it open and slamming it closed. He then locks it so Karkat can't get in, and drops his stuff on the floor before clenching his fists and scr3aming wordless wails. Then, he runs into his room and flops onto the bed, screeching into the pillow//

CG: * - Why the hell did Kankri seem so needy! Why couldn't just tell what he was thinking.. WHY THE F.UCK CAN'T I JUST KNOW WHAT HIS THOUGHTS WERE! - Huffing. Wanting to vist Captor, and share what just happened, he decides to not. Knowing he's probably spending time with his other best friend. Aradia. A bit overwhelmed, Karkat heads to the local park. Upon getting there, he climb a large pine tree, taking a place to rest, as he calms himself. Soon falling asleep till late. *

( o: too soon? )

karkat be like:
gettin' real tired of yo sh.it kankri

( 'XD )

(Dang it Maple, it hurts to laugh stoooppp XDD)

TI: //Come morning, Kankri's eyes flutter open and he rubs them lazily with a fists as he yawns and greets the day. He gets out from under the covers, and looks down to see he's still fully clothed from yesterday. Embarrassed at his own behavior, he changes into a dark green turtle neck with little white polka dots. The thing was da.mned ugly, but he was always wearing that bright red one, and guess what? It was way uglier. Shivering, he walks down the hall and sits at the table in the dining room, next to the kitchen, and stares into space, thinking about his poor actions last night. He'd been really immature, that was for one thing. Karkat was probably going through some phase where it was normal to avoid any family relations to protect their so-called precious 'reputation.' He exhales loudly, and buries his face in his hands. 'I'm so sorry, Karkat... I don't know what got into me,' he thinks to himself, as if mentally preparing to apologize to the boy in person. Not like it would---

TI: help, or anything, but you can't really change what you're thinking, can you? Getting up from the chair, he slips into his sandles and unlocks the door, planning to search for Karkat, but when he opened the door, he was surprised to find Karkat standing two feet away, eyes wide and expression just a little bewildered// Karkat? Would you like to come inside? //He asks, thinking at the same time, 'Wonder what his problem is. Now, eggs or bacon? Hmm...'//

( replied to CronKri. ^^' )

(Karkat was supposed to have heard Kankri's thoughts, yo XD But I guess we can say that Kanky developed the powers first >w> Karkat will follow shortly after, okay?)

(o3o Yay! //Replies here first then scrambles to other post//)

( O: OH! I'LL REWRITE THEN :3 )

(Are you sure you wanna rewrite? O: You don't have to)

( Yep, was in a rush when I wrote it. Never good. :p it's your rp. It should go the way you want it. And it shall be good o: )

(QwQ ....Thank you, kind sir- I feel bad now because I just finished 'improving' your Karkat picture)

(Woah, it must be long //Keeps waiting very patiently// :U)

( I'M SO SORRY KRISKA! I LOST MY REPLY TO BAD INTERNET. FOR THE LAST 30-60 MINUTES I SPENT LOOKING FOR AND SETTING UP A NEW ROUSTER QVQ -REPLYS NOW- * cries, sad yet happy to have better conect!on )

(//punches your interwebs//)

CG: * walking up to the pourch, a voice cries out in apologetic 'sorry' swarms in his mind. Strange. It couldn't of been his own thoughts. Karkat had done notging so far to have this single word pop out of no where. But now thinking about it he should take it as advice. To say sorry to his brother that is. Reaching for the door's kn0b, Close to knowing, a click of the door unlaching sounds. Coming face to face with his brother. Kankri greets. And then the qustion of eggs or bacon pops up this time. Karkat blurts out an answer for said qustion.* Bacon. * Feeling as if he's stood far too long in the morning wearther and , just being anti-social, not wanting to converse with the older one. Karkat dunks in past Kankri. Heading for his room to fullfill his purpose of return.
Entering the safety and comfort of his room, Karkat drops his backpack, un-zips it, and starts rumaging through the pile of clothes he had kept in his closet. His thoughts trail off to Kankri. The sweater. -

CG: * thinking, " The patteren. It's just horriable. Not even grandpa's would wear it, wheater it was hand made by their wifes. Most of Kankas's swearters are ratched. I already knew him and dad didn't have any taste in fashion but sheesh. Come on.. " * stuffing pieces of cloth after another into the bag, only to be starttled. By the growling of his stomach. pfft. Haven't of ate anything since last afternoon, he promises to get food after filling the backpack. *

( ... xD WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY IMPROVING... ARE YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT MY CHIBI KK? )

TI: //Baffled at Karkat answering his silent question, he watches in amazement as the younger one sulkily trudges down the hall and into his own room, closing the door behind him. Before Kankri can approach him and ask how he'd done that, a voice much like Karkat's muses on how awful his attire is today and Kankri bristles in slight anger, not realizing it's only inside his head since it sounds so real. He already knew it was ugly, but he wasn't going anywhere today, so it wasn't like he had to dress up! Loudly, he says back// I *know* it's ugly! No need for extra commentary! //'Jerk.' Sucking in a breath to calm himself down, he pads into the kitchen and starts up the bacon//
(How to bacon:
no)

(Ye, just check teh gmayl >w>)

( .... X'D )

(You're welcome bit.ch O:< Now I need to ruin two more b4 i get my nuuuuudddddeeesssss)

CG: * Hearing an inraged reply to his comment from a bit ago he tell it, " MHM. NEED NEW TASTE. NOW YOUR LIFE NEEDS COMMENTARY!" A little whiles later, the smell of bacon waffed through the air. Just the thought of its sweet juicy goodness made his mouth water. Picking his self up off the pile he was laying in. Karkat exits the room, following the scent of the fried piggy * ( Cannibalism! ;P )

( YOUR DOING IT ON PURPOSE IN THE SAKE OF NUDES?! XDDD THE HELL... )

( also :p do you use your L and R buttons on her? )

(Done with another one! ^o^ This one has a few things in it I'm not too proud of, but, here I go... //Goes to gmail and sends//)

(WTFH I NEVER KNEW IT COULD DO THAT HOLY FRICK. TRY PRESSING THE B BUTTON THO :D)

( ... B is the back button xD ? )

TI: //Only giving a bossy huff as a response to Karkat's sarcasm, he places the bacon onto two plates and sits down with them, setting the other plate in front of him so Karkat would sit across the table and then they would have to give direct eye contact at one point. 'Fu.ck me!' he thinks suddenly as he touches the bacon and gets slightly burnt. Sucking on his finger to cool it down, he watches with interest as Karkat nears the table, an almost delighted expression displayed on his face as he spots the bacon//

(yyyyESSSS)

(Kankri may not ever curse out loud, but inside his head, he's pretty d1rty O:)

( ythguan ythguan! XD )

(So true tho -u-)

CG: *"Hm? When and where?" Karkat eyes the bacon. Wanting to grab it and dash back to his room. But for the sake of bacon, he'd probably drop it on his way. Slowly, but surely, makes his way to the table. Taking the seat in front of the Kankri. As for the bacon, freshly cooked, right from the pan, seeing as hot steam whisps above, drools.*

TI: //Looking up from his own food, he narrows his eyes in sus.picion// When and where, what? //Talks around the finger still in his mouth, thinking, 'Karkat has drool... napkins... shi.t. Did we run out?'//

CG: * before shoving a piece in to his trap, he gives his attention to Kankri. * ..? I didn't say anything? * Karkat flinches when he actually notices Kankri's present state. A light blush dusts it's self across his face. Adverting the scene, Karkat wolfs down a few more pieces of the yummy meat *

( THERE ARE SO MANY RIDICULOUS WORDS THAT WE CAN'T USE XDDD )

(Brb kitchen)

( tyt :3 )

(Okay so I lied.. I washed the dishes, had dinner, and washed them again .-. //replies now//)

( tis okay ;p figured you were )

TI: ...Yes, you did. //Curious about his younger brother's sudden bashful attitude, he decides to try out what he's been suspecting all morning. The entire time, neither of their lips are moving, but they're hearing each other talk. At least, that's what it seems like. Point taken, Kankri lets go of his burnt finger with a slight -pop- and thinks in his head at the highest volume he can imagine, 'Karkat, can yOU HEAR ME?' After casually thinking such a disturbing thought, he returns to eating his now-cooled bacon, just in case Karkat couldn't hear him and he was being weird//

(Hey, would you rather Sarkat be Mage of Blood or Knight of Doom?)

CG: * Karkat's face colides with the table surface at the pop. Being a bit over dramatic. Not even daring to look. * Yes. I fu-cking can.

( o: mage I suppose. )

TI: //Kankri carefully finishes the bacon slowly so as to muse very quietly over this new discovery with patience before flipping out. Once done, he leans towards Karkat, and turns up the younger one's chin so Karkat can clearly see he is not moving his lips when he talks to him inside his head. 'What we are preforming is a very powerful ability called Telekinesis. It's the power to read minds, and possibly move objects without touching them, although I'm not certain we should attempt anything yet. We're new to this, and as crazy as it all sounds, we need to take baby steps. Don't tell anyone about this, alright? Not yet. It could go away in a day or two, perhaps even an hour. I have no idea. Are... you okay?' Kankri asks through their mind link, concerned with his brother's reaction//

(Aight! Mage of Blood and Thief of Blood it is, then. Kewl beans -w-)

( As an stupid question what chu doing? :3 )

CG: * No longer having an appetite. He listens to Kankri's explanation. Though it sounds uterly ridiculous and unbelievable as it sounds it does explain the issue. Giving a small nod to his order to keep silent of it. Karkat pulls away from the others hold. * I'm fine! * He shots back * Just not comfortable with you nosing around in my mind!

TI: //As Karkat's face slips from his light grasp and he yells a few thing, Kankri growls softly to himself and says with just as much of an attitude// Hey, I'm not feeling too comfortable, either! It's a two-way street. You can hear my thoughts, too, so it's fair, I suppose- although it's equally destructive. You can't lie inside of your head. //With that dismal last word, Kankri takes both their plates and places them in the sink, thinking, 'Well. We're fu.cked. Our strained relationship is already down the drain, thanks to me. Now we have this. Mmhm. Wonderful. Thanks, whoever's in charge of making people's lives full of bulls.hit,' forgetting, out of habit, that Karkat can hear every word he's saying. Obviously//

(Huh. What *AM* I doing? //doodles many things ovo//)

( xP wonderful then.. )

CG: Uhg! ... * Eyes widen, when Kankri complains to himself, somewhere in there finding a curse word, pointing it out, Karkat interjects - * Fu-ck? Really now? What's wrong with saying it verbally? Oh. Look. Fu-ck, fu-ck, fu-ck.

TI: //Twitches as he realizes what Karkat is referring to and bites his bottom lip anxiously, walking back out of the kitchen and past the dining room without answering Karkat. He may think the word, but that was entirely different from saying it out loud. His lips had never even formed the word. 'Well... except for that one time when I was 'experimenting' in the bathro- SHUTUPSHUTUPSHUTUPSH UT UPPPP NO.' He runs down the hall and into his room, humiliated that Karkat might have caught on to where his thoughts had been going. 'It was only once! And it wasn't even nice! It was terrible!- Ugh! Music. Think music.' He started humming in his head, rocking nervously once on his bed//
(HmmmM IM WONDERING WHAT KANKRI MEANS BY EXPERIMENTING OuO)

( * sits here fanboying to the max of what the 'experiment' could be. * oWo ... )

(yesh.. keep wondering, mister sir. //paps you carefully and then whispers// also check out the #mixturestuck tag it's so wonderful hhhhH)

CG: * quietly speaking outloud *The hell? This might not be so bad.* Since seeing a flustered Kankri was truely entertaining. Why couldn't this of happened sooner? * OH! * quickly covering the light bulb of an idea, he just had, with rememberance of old romcoms. The humming was a bit annoying, but getting up, he pushes in the chair, taking his time to reach the olders room. Karkat taps on the door. A small mischievous smile playing on his lips. He chims * Kankri?

( >.> ... Mixturestuck seems to be catching on here :p )

chimes*? >_<

(yES I KNOW RIGHT. and correct. chimes. Also kk, water u doing. stop bullying kankri u lil chinchilla's as.shole)

(( CG: FUUQQ NO. D:<B MOTHER GRUBBER BE PMIP SLAPPING. * will after completes new achivement Owo ))

TI: //Stops rocking temporarily, raising his head to look up at his locked door, the humming in his head paused as he hesitantly answers to Karkat's scarily unusual cheery voice// Yes...?

(achievement? What...? ono)

CG: When you were talking- I mean thinking of 'experiment' I presume you mean by that would be- ... ? * trails off the last few words *

( Nothing xD just being means to Kri. c: )

(Oml XDD)

( SHSSS! IT'S NOT WHAT YOU THINK! I SWEAR TO IT! XDD)

TI: //Blushes and buries self under the covers before screeching// I BET YOU'VE DONE IT TOO, OKAY? STOP MAKING FUN OF ME OH MY GOD KARKAT YOU IMMATURE PIECE OF GARBAGE! AAAUUUUGGGHH!

(It is totally what it seems)

CG: EH? Done what? Swich out your shampoo? Strange expressions in the mirror? Not sure what your talking about. Nice insult by the way. A lot better than your last. Well, laters then. * strolls off to his own room, retreving his pack, and a few other things *

(Also, gotta go to bed. I'll be up at like four though. I love you! Sweet dreams, my precious babbu <> //Huggles//)

( but tis not. implying something like that only to get a raise out of him. Also thank you. That was a perfect one at that )

(Haha... nope. Kankri was totes doing himself :p //morphs out of the room//)

( Why...? Aren't you still somewhat sick? * huggles * G'night love. Pleasent dreams. )

(well sh.it son you got dem genius in you //kicks self out rIGHT NOW GTG <> U BYES//)

( * facepalms * )

(//squeaks// yes i am but dont care bye love you too >//u//<)

( * follows out, snuggling in your bed, watching you sleep as per-usual * 0vo )

(I SET MY ALARM FOR THREE FIFTY FIVE I DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED! OMGF. //Kicks my alarm//)

TI: //Thoroughly embarrassed, Kankri is unable to stop himself frm thinking, 'None of the freaking above. What do most teenagers do when they're in the bathroom by themself, and home alone?' He inwardly snorts, then curls up and whacks himself on the head for thinking such an ugly thought. It had been a pretty quiet whisper, too, so he was desperately hoping that Karkat didn't hear anything. If he did, then, well... sh.it.

CG: * reorting to Kankri's remark. * " I don't know. Like to enlighten me? " * Karkat's grin never fading, after stopping by his room, he exits out the front door leaving Kankri alone once again.* " Maybe Captor's free today. " * once that sentance was completed he makes his way to the said teens house *

( Your body said, "Nope. I'm going to make you deaf for the time your clock rings. :D
Because, 'Hey!' I'm tired and sick. Let me be!"
Am Imright?xD )

(OOH YOU MENTIONED ARADIA BEING BEST FRIENDS WITH SOLLUX RITE)

(WELL)

(KARKAT COULD GET THERE AND FIND THEM MACKING OUT ON EACH OTHER)

(HuuuEEEHUEHUEHEEU)

(EntER: SAD KARKAT AND COMFORTING KANKRI >W>)

(oh sh.it this roleplay should get like really serious. like, one of them should accidentally tell or someone sees something, and then the fbi gets involved and they get sent to a scientific facility and have to go through many agonizing experiments because sadstuck wow and then one night they'll escape just using a really big burst of power, scaring off the government officials.)

(then the president will declare a secret plan of action, saying that they and other individuals like them are dangerous and must be put down, so we should like make them leave the entire freaking country)

(they should go to Germany.
Germany's cool)

( alright! We'll do ^^'! You want me continue or do you have an reply you'd like to put in? :p )

(I'll roleplay as Sollux and Aradia as Karkat calls Sollux first (Sol won't pick up) and then again as KK lets himself in, as per the norm for him, as Sol's house is like a second home to him, and approaches Sol's room to spot the two... sucking each other's faces :^D So yes, please continue.)

( .. xDDDD SO CRUEL... Also :3 does Kriska have an robotic arm like Vriska? I've been looking back at recent drawings you've done, but the sweater... Just want to make sure :p )

(Hmm! Interesting question. Actually, I'd have it so that only the upper half of her arm, down to her elbow, is robotic, while below the elbow is flesh. Re-attaching flesh to machinery is a pain in the a.ss, but it can be done. Robotic wiring must run through her lower half in order to function properly.)

So technically, she can't feel her shoulder or her upper arm or elbow, but the rest, she can feel.)

(Also, sorry I brb'ed. I had a bloody nose and my sister's been quietly stealing all of the tissues >_>)

CG: * Karkat digs through his pockets, pulling out an outdated cell phone. He press speed dial. The old device automatically calling Sollux's own cell. Putting it to his ear, Karkat listens as 'Discord' plays in the back ground. Sadly after a while the call goes to voice mail. "Must be gaming with his headset on. He usually answers when I buzz him. " putting the phone back in its place. Karkat proceeds his walk to the Captors home. Which wasn't a long walk, for most that is, but being the short grubber he is, it takes twice as long. Finally reaching the drive way, Karkat pauses to make sure he didn't look like a tottal slob, since he did sleep in a tree just last night. Feeling satisfid with his appearance, he heads for the door, ringing the bell twice. After a moment of pure silence, no signs of movement, he righs once more. Still no Sollux. Karkat wiggles the handle, finding it to be unlocked. -

( Ah! xD Thank you. And it's alright. Was working on the rp as you can now see. One more moment please )

CG: * scaning the living room, no sign of the teen. Karkat makes his way up the stairs, strolling to said latter's room. Nearing his destination, whispers, shss, and other ... uncommon sounds could be heard. "What the hell could Captor be doing?" An unpleasent feeling settles over him. Karkat reaches for the doors handle, ever so slowly twisting it, he peeks in, finding the boy. But not just him, also Aradia. *

(Bwahaha... //Evil planning// Keep in mind, however, that I'm not the best Sol or Ara RPer, please >n>)

( <v< yes yes. Understood. )

(Also, in this RP, I want Karkat to be slightly heartbroken, because he'd been developing redder feelings for Sollux even though Sollux- in this AU- has expressed feelings for only girls, so expect some disgust on Sollux's behalf if you decide to have Karkat confess his feelings in a burst of anger as a defense mechanism.)

( As you wish my pmip! ^^ )

(Sorry for procrastinating, but I should have you know- Karkat and Kankri's telepathic con.nection only lasts about two point five miles right now. As they grow stronger, the length will become longer. Same with the telekinesis. At the moment, they can only slightly wiggle any objects less than 20 pounds, and at a distance of ten feet.)

(Yeeesss I am your pmip)

( Good ^,^ Got some privacy in his mind :p CG: * thinks about the 'experiment' * HEY! QUIT THAT! X'DD )

( * on stand-by * 0vo )

TI: //The thought similar to '..-Wonder if-... -ptor's home.' strays through his mind, and it has that familiar feeling whenever it originates from Karkat- a thought Kankri is forced to think, deleting any current whispy thoughts of his own and replacing them with Karkat's most prominent ones. 'Karkat, have you left the house to go see that kid? What about... me...?' He wonders selfishly, then cups his hands over his mouth, as if trying to shut himself up, even though he hadn't uttered a word. He lays on his side after a while with no answer, which is weird, because ever since Karkat had been there on the other side of the door this morning, a faint buzzing of his brother's essence has been present in the back of his mind the entire time. 'Is it over? Did it end? Can you hear me?' He asks desperately, actually half missing the only link he had with Karkat, but glad for it, at the same time.// We're normal again, I suppose... //Kankri hums, staring at the wall.//

(Not finished. Still have Sollux to RP.)

(Oooh, in Karkat's show of fury -If you do it, that is... he could cry instead, idk, I don't roleplay Karkat- he should wiggle all dem objects in the room, but it's so slight, that the two others won't notice. It'll only add to the anger effect >u>)

( <,< good idea. Happens in all tele.- movies. It's a must need action. )

TA: //The two of them- Aradia and him, anyways- hear footsteps coming down the hall and Sollux presses a finger to Aradia's pretty red lips, shooshing her quickly. At her questioning tilt of the head, he motions to the door and mouths 'thomeone'th here.' Her own mouth forms an '0' shape, and she quickly straightens out her wrinkled clothes, then starts fixing her hair up in a rush. Sollux just stares at the door, waiting for the person, whoever they were, to enter. He didn't give two sh.its about the lipstick marks on his face, or his ruffled appearance. He'd just been making out with the girl of his dreams, and he feels accomplished, like the world should know. Then, he spots Karkat, and he laughs a little, giving a tiny smirk// Oh, hey there, KK. Wathn't eckthpecting you here ever thinth you left with your di.ck of an older brother yethterday afternoon. Did you chew him out? Ehehe.

( HOLY SIHT! GOT THE IDEA HOW THEY END UP WITH THE FED.. MEAN SOLLUX PAPA BE PART OF FBI, -reason for captor cop - ! AND SO SOL. TELLS HIS PA WHAT HAPPENED.. XDDD )

AA: //Smiles a bit nervously// Hello, Karkat. How are you doing? //Reaches for Sollux's hand, grasping it tight and squeezing to reassure herself//

(Aradia can sort of sense KK's feelings, so she's being protective... >:D)

(Oh yeah! That'll work awesomely. And it'll be Sollux's way of revenge >,> He's gonna be a ho.mophobe... unfortunately for the Vantas brothers)

CG: * Obviosly intruding on their recent activities. He could only guess what. Seeing that the red smears covering Sollux's face, and Aradia's clothes only a little creased with folds. A knot forms in the pit of his stomach. Karkat had thought the two were only friends, it never occured to him they'd feel more than that. Since Captor did spend more of his time with Karkat. As also counting that they didn't ggo overbthe topic of relationships much. * Muttering under hushed tones - *
Got to him, just a bit, but I did call in advance...
* Karkat stuffs his hands inside his pockets, clutching, and un-clutching his fist. Looking any where but the couple. *

CG: * in the corner of his eye, he sees Aradia take Sollux's hand into hers. He chooses to ignore her whole 'hello', The whole thing was starting to make Karkat's blood boil with vexation. Did Captor not see Karkat's feelings for the other? He had tried to show them. Right. As all those times you would get him little trinkets when ever he wanted. Had that not been enough without blurting out how he felt for the teen? *

(Aw jesus fu.ck... my kokoro is slowly giving out my dokis. This is sadstuck, right here. Mmm. //Weeps happily// I'm terrible for loving angst)

(Also, just drew the most hilarious thing. Go check gmail >u>)

( ... X'D )

TA: //He raises an eyebrow at Karkat's unresponsiveness to Aradia's small hello- Karkat MUST have heard it, there was no possible way he could have missed it unless he was suddenly deaf (also not possible, because he'd replied to Sol's own question)- and leans forward on the bed, towards his abruptly very solemn friend, seeing the frustrated little gestures going on inside the teen's pockets// Ah... I gueth I didn't hear. My phone'th in the living room, I think. If you want, thinth you're here, I could make thome breakfatht? Athuming you haven't eaten already, what with your terrible thibling not looking after you at all. Theriouthly though, KK, are you alright? You're not looking too hot.

CG: * Shaking his head no to all questions. Karkat thoughts become crowded. He's insulting Kankri? After just macking on Aradia? Why? Even though they would mock Kankri from time to time in the midest game, by using him for reasons of the colossal amount of fails. As if Captors system would freeze, they'd say Kankri had just preached, other times if it was the game, and say he was watching the two play. But right now was not the time to criticize. Now is good as any other. Karkat inhales, and speaks up so Sollux would hear clearly. * Captor. Do you care that I even let alone know... That I do like you more than a friend?

(ASDFGHJKLZXCVBNMQWERTYUIOP)

( 0_0 ... Too soon? Or fan-ing? )

(//Fangirling//)

TA: //Blinks. Blinks twice. Blinks again, for a third time. Inhales, exhales. Clears throat. Opens mouth, attempting to speak, but his voice comes out in a croak and he closes it before clearing his throat once again and talking in a wobbly, hushed tone// I... I'm thorry... you- you *what*?

AA: //Covers her mouth in surprise, eyes wide as her suspiscion is confirmed// Oh... Karkat... I'm so sorry.

CG: * Karkat's frustration only grows, with both of their reactions. Feeling as if Aradia was showing him piety, as to Captor gave a more disgusted look. He has to do this. Before he cowers, not only to the other guest, but also to the uncommon choice frowned upon in all of society. * I-I do! I REALY DO LIKE YOU SOLLUX!

(Sorry, dinner was thrown at my face and I was expected to eat it immediately)

( I know I know. ^^ Just as long as you ate it's fine. )

TA: //Feeling almost betrayed, he hisses, half interrupting his supposed best friend, whom he thought previously to have known everything about just a few minutes ago. He shakes his head, refusing to believe it, and growls// KK... pleathe tell me thith ithn't true. You're joking. You've got to be. You can't be g.ay, and you can't be g.ay for me! We talk about girlth all the time... I don't believe it.

AA: //Shoves her elbow into Sollux's ribcage, effectively shutting him up// He's telling the truth, Sollux, and that's the worst possible way to reject someone! Stop it.

TA: But we're *guyth*! He ithn't thuppothed to feel that way towardth me! //Glares at Aradia// What, do you *want* uth to get together?
AA: //Glares back// No, I never said that! Don't put words into my mouth. Just accept Karkat's feelings and think about them. You two need some time away from each other.

CG: * Despair hits the Karkat. He was certainly going down the road of rejection. Captors words leaving a vile taste in his mouth. As for Aradia, sticking up for him, it hardly eased anything though it was nice. Takes note for any future cases. Seeing her give Sollux an jab with her elbow, but Sollux still continues the forward rejection progress. It was begining to be a bit to bitter for his liking. On the floor, oppsite of the group, spawled cord controlers start to shake. Captors last words infuriate Karkat. Way beyond anger and mad. * I AGREE! * as Karkat roars those two words Captors only window adopts a new large crack. As soon as Karkat hears that sound, he takes off. Stoarmimg from the bedroom. *

(Curfew is surely one hell of a d.ickwad. I love you, Momo, and this time I'll be up early, I swear on my white nightgown! O:< Sweet dreams bby)

( >v< G'night! Love chu too. * follows you to bed once again, watching you sleep. * ovo )

(( Also XD You false ad. I'm not the MOMO. I'm M0M0. ;p )

(//Looks over profile// I don't see any 'the MOMO's anywhere...)

( o,o Hmm. )

(//Snuggles with you in my bed and uses you as a body pillow as I reply with the ultimate laziness//)

( Description. :p )

( Oh hello c: )

(Description for what? One of my paintings?)

( no the pro. desc. :3 )

(( * still as water, ish snuggled * o'v'o ))- while you do that I'ma shower -v-'

(I don't see 'the MOMO' anywhere on my profile desc...? And alright. Don't slip and fall and break your neck or I'll be really sad)

TA: //As Karkat's anger goes off like a fuse the way it usually does (this comforts Sollux, to know that not everything has changed), he notices in the corner of his eye that his game control wires are slithering with life, like snakes ready to wrap their coils around any near victim's throat and squeeze until they were dead. Shivering at his imagination, he jumps when Karkat shouts a couple words, and something in his room seems to break, but Sollux isn't sure what- he looks over at Aradia, who's slowly shaking her head in disappointment, and she gets off the bed, too, leaving him to his own devices with a small 'we'll talk later.' He punches his pillow, his day ruined. Was it his fault? Was he the bad guy the two were making him out to be? He lays there and ponders, before spotting a large five-inch crack in his window that wasn't there before Karkat arrived.//

AA: Wait! Karkat! //She calls out as they both exit the house, him in a frustrated rush, and her trying to walk just as quickly as he with a stubbier pair of legs. She brushes his arm comfortingly, and says// That was really rude and unfriendly of Sollux to act out in such a manner. I apologize on his behalf, and I hope you can eventually forgive him. As you know, he isn't all that bad. He has some good points, too. And, Karkat...? Good luck. //She hugs him, then walks off down the street in the opposite direction//

(AH SHOOT YOU'RE PROBABLY REPLYING TO THE FIRST ONE ALREADY OH FU.CK)

( no. I waiting xD )

( making sure your finished :p )

(Yup finished XD Thank goodness >u>)

(//Patiently eats imaginary fruit while I wait because fruit tastes delichus okay stfu and YES DELICHUS IS ON PURPOSE//)

CG: * Aradia catches up to him, giving words of comfort and forgiveness. Karkat only offers a disappointed smile in return. Before leaving, she hugs. Unexpectedly, Karkat hugs back. Really feeling the need of one at the moment. He knew there was a chance Sollux would deny his show of affection. He even perpaired for it. But Karkat, to his dismay, didn't expect it to be that bad. Aradia then leaves, just as he should be as well. Now all alone in front of his best friends house, he trimbbles a bit. Not sure what to think. An image of the two playing video games, and blaming Kankri for their problems with the game. Kankri. He might have something to say. Karkat dashes in the direction of home. Hoping Kankri hasn't left the house for anything just yet. *

( Hypacrital Gammar Nazzii! xDD )

(Bleh. My middle name is Hypocrite, so deal with it)
TI: //Having fallen asleep upon the new leaf being turned and him just being plain bored as all hell, he wakes up immediately when the buzzing is back inside the back of his mind and he shoots up out of bed, feeling Karkat's extreme distraught and inner turmoil. He swings the door open, and runs down the the hall as casually as he can before opening the door and throwing himself at Karkat, shooshing him and papping him even though he has no clue as to what happened while Karkat was away until he starts to listen to the other's small thought whispers. Something about rejection, and... and Sollux. Feelings. Oh, sh.it. 'Karkat, it's going to be okay. I'm here, and I love you. It'll be alright.' He cradles the younger teen with care, rocking them both rhythmically//

(And that is why I love angst, ladies and gentlemen. That is the ENTIRE reason. ^^^)

(So, I wonder who's going to fall in love first? Hmm. My bet's on Karkat. plsplsplsbekarkathhhnnng)

( DON'T KNOW. XDD we won't know till after classes )

(r u fkin kddn me rite nw >_> //Watches you leave and screeches// ur a crul monstr)

CG: * Once again back home. Kankri hurridly sprinting for Karkat. Automatically hugging him. Karkat embraces, burring his face in Kankris sweater. Kankri even paps him. Just like he use to when they were younger. It was always soothing. After being dissed by Captor, Karkat would accept any form of love at the moment. And brotherly love was fine. He sobs into the teens clothes. Doing his best not to begin blobbering like an even bigger baby than how he was acting now. Karkat squeezes the other tightly as he's held. Wondering where his bitterness towards his brother even came from. But he tosses that out for a later time. All he wanted right now was a small amount of affection. Kankri did just that. *

( Wish I was :p But school sucks man. )

(fffffuuu that's so kawaii >n>)

( <_< EVERYTHING IN MY LIFE IS MADE KAWAII JUST FOR YOUR EXISTANCE. )

(Well that's just simply delightful)

(Also I've coined a few ideas)

(I've read a bunch of Wikipedia entries when I was supposed to be writing an essay for my Rhetoric class XD)

( #Procrastination)

( .... KANKALS XDDDD )

( Pfft! Wanna share those ideas of yours? :p )

(Okay, so each of them could have a different kind of psychokinesis. There's telekinesis, pyrokinesis, cryokinesis, electrokinesis, terrakinesis, hydrokinesis, and so on, so forth. I actually just made a few of those up... obviously pyrokinesis is the power to manipulate fire with the mind, and credit goes to one of Stephen King's books. Cryokinesis is obviously 'freeze.' Think ice. Cryogenetics? When you freeze and preserve someone, hopefully effectively making them sleep for as long as they want and when they wake up they will be in the future, due to their organs and mind not aging.)

(Terrakinesis means motions of the earth through the mind. Electrokinesis... That one really gets me with Karkat. The wires in Sollux's room? MMmmmm yes. Hydrokinesis or pyrokinesis could go to Kankri. OOH. Hydro is water, and water conducts electricity- That's perfect for an escape plan! Hot da.mn, I am pure genius)

( O: gez. Didn't know there were varieties o.o )

( THE HELL YOU ARE! >v< )

(Yes. Many varieties. The most common heard is moving household objects like opening drawers and whatnot- AKA telekinesis.)

(asdfghjkl; What should happen next to lead up to such dangerous events like the FBI? Besides behind the scenes stuff. We need more plot besides cute fluff. We must give them many, many problems >u>)

(( Alright. Anymore New Info.? :p ))

(Like... adding more love interests? Or addressing Kankri's 'no friends' problem? Maybe KK will help Kankri out and they go to a club to go find some people who share Kankri's interests. KK, being the young a.ss.hole he is, will get drunk and Kankri will have to help him home. They show up, and Dad's home for once. Dun dun dun O:<)

( Er, Sollux speads rumor (-IDFHC-) around school of the two :p? Friends become distant? Causing the two to to be forced to hang out more? Cause hey! No friends. Grades drop? nearing end of school? Bullies trash their house cause they believe/encourage rumors? )

( ... GREAT MINDS THINK A LIKE )

( LETS DO THIS!! >:3 - your still at school aren't you? -)

(Meh, nah. I looked at other things such as clairvoyance, but that's too excessive and- oh my god it's perfect. We can add Terezi into the story temporarily as a seer, or one with a 'third eye.' You know? Retrocognition, prominitions? that kind of stuff. She could eerily zone out and tell Karkat what happened in the past.
Be like "Yo Karkles, Sollux told his dad you're a freak and his dad's contacted the FBI huehuehue"
Except way more mysteriously)

(OOH GOOD IDEA. BULLIES ARE GOOD. And yeah, still at school >->)

( ovo Great one! The more the marrier! )

(Kay, I'm at home now. Time to replyyyy -w-)

( ... #!!!!!ROUY 58008 LLAHS EB TCEFREP )

(...What about my b.oobs being perfect? XD)
TI: //Sensing Karkat's needs for yet even more affection, feeling and hearing the pain in his brother's mind, he keeps him arm wrapped around the younger one and closes the front door, leading them both to Kankri's room. Once there, Kankri wipes away Karkat's tears, kisses his forehead, and rips apart his overzealously organized room to create a pile of comforts on the floor. He drags Karkat down, and once again embraces him. They snuggle for awhile, and Kankri hyperfocuses on calming Karkat down. It's distressing to see him in such a chaotic state because of someone else, and he really wishes he could have kept unpleasant thoughts of him punching the ultimate crud out of 3D nerd out of his head so Karkat didn't have to experience thinking about him again, but unfortunately, it's hopeless. So he tries thinking about silly, stupid things- 'Karkat's ice cream truck goes 'vavurievyevoom' when it travels down the road. Kids gladly gtfo.', etc.//

( X'D YOU'LL SEE LATER... ) CG: * Not saying one word as Kankri guides him around. Even so he'd follow in suit, sniffling and muffling his sobs, it wasn't till Kankri destroyed his room to make a pile that he started to feel a bit better. Knowing Kankri wouldn't really do something like that unless it was completely necessary and for a good reason. Karkat would hold the others arm, right against his chest. As if it was a precious stuffed animal. Soon his tears subsided. Now listening to Kankri's nonsensical thoughts. * Pac-man as nothing to do with the zoo.. * Karkat mutters. *

( >0> I WANNA SEE YOU DARE TRY AND RUIN THAT! )

((OvO)/ Oooh. I'm curious now!)
TI: //When Karkat finally speaks, Kankri lets out a rush of happy air, glad that his brother was talking again. He kisses Karkat's forehead again, and does so sloppily just to get a rise out of him- make him act like his normal self. After achieving the sloppy smooch, Kankri laughs and buries them both deeper into the comfort nest. He hums and says,// Yes, they do. A zoo can be like a maze if you don't have a map. Pacman could be an escaped lion and the ghosts could be the people running away. Occasionally, the lion finds carnival foods like caramel apples and stuff that energize him, just like the fruit replenishes Pacman's three lives, or gives bonus ones.

(Just did. Suckerrrr >v<)

( ... Wait you ruined both popcorns in that time I commented? Gog. Your fast.. o-o )

(That's what she said >u>)

CG: * Karkat quivers at the child like kiss. Grossed out in the slightest of ways. He frantically wipes off the slobber. Narrowing his puffy eyes at the older. * The hell you doing? * Pushed further into the pile, Karkat some how ends up with his head on Kankris chest. Feeling the relaxing vibrations of his vocals, as he gives his analogue of Karkats earlier comment. * Okay maybe they are linked. But I feel as if you pulled that right out of your danmed sas..

(( QvQ why would you even try to ruin Nyt and the Vriska? ))

(Wait... Vriska? I only saw Nyt.)

(( OH! Shsss. Nothing you need to know then. ^^ 1 drawing rescued.. )

TI: //He pauses for a moment, then whispers in their minds- 'I kind of did, actually.' Then, he laughs more, and nuzzles Karkat, so wonderfully amazed by this beautiful, gently sweet physical contact. He'd yearned for something like this, and here he is, finally on the receiving end. Karkat's head lying on his chest, both their hair messy and full of static due to plenty of movement and friction inbetween the pile of Kankri's stuff- he has a right to be cheerful in this moment! And by being cheerful, hopefully Karkat would climb out of his pity party shell to come and join in on the fun. 'You're my favorite little brother,' Kankri teases, while brushing his fingers through Karkat's hair to make sure he's still recovering.//

CG: * Karkat gives Kankri a dumb founded look. Only to forget his retort when the other decides to nuzzle. As Kankri runs his hands through his dark locks. * " I'm your only brother.. * Feeling a bit better than before. Greatful of Kankris kindnness. * Thanks..

TI: //Planting one last lingering kiss on his younger brother's head and giving another affectionate nuzzle, he nods, silently letting Karkat know that there were no debts owed. This was automatic, and Kankri would drop everything to help Karkat if he's ever in danger. 'No problem. I love you,' He reminds the teen urgently, who seems to have forgotten saying such words ever since he grew out of childhood.//

(Omg We should skip Sunday because I have a good idea for Monday <33 Kankri's going to try and socialize with his brother inside of school -infrontofthestudentbody- to strengthen their bond... maybe even 'accidentally' hold Karkat's hand >u>)

( <,< Sounds good to me! Sundays suck anyway xD )

CG: * Letting Kankri get away with all these kisses. Karkat didn't entierly agree with it, but let it go. Then Kankri says the three words. When was the last time Karkat was able to say them? And truely even be sincere about it? Meekly replying, * Love you too.

TI: //Knowing that was just about the best he could get, Kankri smiles wide and rubs Karkat's back, then asks,// Are you feeling better? If you want, I could make us a late lunch. Then we could just curl up and fall asleep somewhere and watch some of your mushy romcoms while eating chocolate icecream. //'I'll have to make a quick errand to the store, if that's alright.' He adds in his head, and softly -boops- Karkat's nose, enjoying the extreme confusion that results from it, and finding the expression intensely hilarious//

CG: * Karkat stretches his limbs outward. Only to receive the most strangest display of 'love' his brother might ever give him. Karkat blinks, a slight flinch when he 'boops' him. Not even sure how he could respond, Karkat settles with plainly answering. * Much better, really. I'm not all that hungry, but sure. We could.

TI: //Stretching, Kankri leans into his brother before falling over and out of the pile, tumbling across the floor lazily. The pile comes crashing down with Karkat still stuck inside, and Kankri groans in fake despair// Oh, no! Poor princess Karkat is stuck inside the tall collapsed tower of stuffed animals and blankets! Whatever shall I do? //He grabs a minecraft sword off the carpet, and digs through with it, stopping once he's able to see Karkat's extremely unamused face. Kankri grins, chucking the sword away and pulling him out//

( posting your nyt O: now )

(Omg fluff <33 Also, when they watch sh.it on the Telly, Karkat should accidentally skip to a steamy scene with his mind. Win-win situation: Discovery of nature of powers, and deliciously awkward moment huehue)

(Not seeing it yet)

( QAQ cause it said i can't. Want me to send it to you through GM and you could save it to your sd? Then trace it when you've imported it to a new painting? /: )

(Oh! yeah, that'd work. Also, brb kitchen)

(Dang it. I wash the dishes and come back to no reply. NO REWARD FOR MY HARD WORK. //Cries)

(//Sniffles// ...Dinner >n>)

( <0< Good things come to those who wait -replys now- )

CG: FUUQQ! * Karkat shouts at the plushies and blanets tople on to him. Who knew that stuffed dolls would weigh so much! And the fact that Kankri had ALL of them in HIS room only made it weird. As to Kankri, he turned it into an role play. Seeing he was holding a toy sword by the time he reached Karkat. Taking the offer, Karkat is rescued from the moutain of plushieness. It was entierly hilarious, but Karkat didn't want to give Kankri that kind of satisfaction of being the cause of a smile. He nudges the other in the side. As if to say 'Seriously?' *

TI: //Shoves Karkat to the ground in a sudden jerky movement, and then an invisible force smashes him against Karkat, making the two of them kiss awkwardly. Kankri tries to pry away, but the force is strong in this one... They make out, swirling tongues and feeling each other up, and the both of them scream at each other in their minds, a jumbled string of explecitives popping out here and there//
(This is what I could do, but won't. Hehehe... So yeah. Enjoy this parody scene while I go actually reply!)

(Actual reply)
TI: //He smirks back, only slightly wincing at the nudge, and asks in a mockingly playful british voice,// Is your highness well now? Has she the ability to move her b.utt into the living room where I may then prepare a spectacular feast for the both of us in the royal kitchens?

(( * squeeee *!!! X'DDDDD -I spy that SW ref. >v> ))

CG: * raising a brow. Seeing that is how he's going to be. Karkat was going to milk this act for all it's worth. Angling his chin up high. * Don't you dare call me 'Highness'. You will address me as your 'Majesty'. * With his best posture, that he could manage, Karkat leades to the door. Stoping for effect. Karkat shakes his rear. * My dairy air is quite fine as you can see. Could even kiss it! * exiting to the living room as Kankri suggested, Karkat plops a seat on their couch. *

(Hell yes he could kiss it >//u//<)

(( 0...0 oh my. ))

TI: //His jaw drops about a mile down when Karkat picks up on his acting, then shakes his plush little rump at the doorway before sashaying into the living room with a few choice words. Always the one to have the last word, Kankri straightens his back as well, and follows 'Her Majesty' into said living room, where he sits down and looks up at Kankri expectantly. Kankri gives his brother- sorry, the Princess- a swift kiss to the back of his hand, and displays a smug half-smile with confidence written all over his face. 'Your Majesty is rather fetching. Could catch the eye of a prince one day very soon.'//
(Little do they know... it will be the Knight who wins the Princess's heart in the end. //Starts to screech really loudly, fangirling hard//)

(Right now, he's kissing it figuratively. Later on... Hehehe... totally different story.)

( oh my my my :p )

(Slightly confuzzled by Karkat's last thought. Is he hoping to fall in love with a girl next time? Idgi...)

CG: * astonished that Kankri would go to such lenghts to up his surade. Swiftly retracting his hand, Karkat silences. Only to look the other way. Not even eyeing the other. Kankri, with his new adopted high attitude, strolls off to the kitchen. Karkat's thoughts once again wondered to how his best friend, well possible ex- best friend, was doing then back to Kjankris last sentance. Prince? As if. Not many of those exist. And definitely not the ones he's looking for. *

TI: //Once done with his wonderfully preformed live action roleplay, Kankri struts into the kitchen and ponders on what he should make, filling his thoughts with different available food ingredients instead of reading Karkat's depressing ones. Throwing all fancy things out the window, he takes out the peanut butter and jelly, some bread, and a few spreading utensils. In a few minutes, he procures two sandwiches for Karkat- one is normal, with the crusts off, and in triangles; the other one is cut into a tiara shape just to make fun. Kankri stacks them on top of each other and places the plastic plate in front of his brother before settling down with his own normal sandwiches. He spreads a warm blanket over their bodies, his legs touching Karkat's, and he switches on the TV., turning to the romcom channel//

( fixed it :p )

(I see that XD Also, curfew. Good night, love <> See you bright and early! //Hugs and kisses your face then flops into my big pile of covers//)

CG: * given the plate, he sees the creation. Karkat look from his sandwich to Kankri. Once more for retake. "I want no more than the thrill of smearing this onto your face. Sadly I'm hungry." Karkat, bites into said sandwich, folding his legs up on to the couch, cozy as can be. Soon the romcoms begin. While Kankri was examining the movies description, Karkat high-jackes the remote. *

( idea for how the embrassment happens since they're watching cable and not dvd. :p )

( AW D: G'night! * follows, not wanting to freeze to ice * ^^

(Back! //Buries us both under my covers and types my reply under a tent of blankets, all nice and toasty// <33
So what's your idea for embarrassment? >u>')

( Idk forgot it QvQ i'll eventally remember )

TI: //Kankri slides a pouty expression onto his lips and blinks at Karkat pitifully// But... I worked so hard just to please Your Majesty. Is it not good enough? //As a little revenge, Kankri brushes his fingers along Karkat's sensitive side, knowing how ticklish his brother is, then slides his hand down, where it accidentally swipes at the waistband of Karkat's pants. Not noticing how close he'd been to doing something innappropriate (He's only trying to tickle Karkat- I mean, really) he laughs and whispers innocently// Maybe her Majesty needs a little lesson on manners! No worries- the Knight in shining armor will come to the rescue and save the day. //He snickers, then finally gives up tickling, as his arms are starting to hurt from the odd position. When he looks at the TV channel description, it isn't the right show he'd been looking for. He looks over at Karkat susp.iciously, but the remote is still on the table where Kankri had put it down before the tickling session.//

(Yay, se.xual tickle fights >o<)

(( Gog dman it X'D ))

(OuO yyyyyyes. //Patiently waits for Karkat's reaction asdfghjkl;//)

CG: * Karkat jumps in response. At the unsuspected intruder of space. Ready to send verbal attacks to the interloper of his personal bubble. Karkat now sees Kankri is being a lot more outgoing with finding reasons to touch him. He tenses up. * Manners? How is a knight to do that? They are a course of attack. Not of teaching? * Relieved when Kankri ceases. Glad to aviod an awkward moment. But Kankris face is set with a very questioning look. He shots one back. Glances at the remote, then back to the stare down. " OH! Heh.. " The remote clack ever so weakly on the table. * stare stare *

TI: //Raises an eyebrow at Karkat's fidgety attitude, more exprcting to have his ear ripped out of skull due to past treatment Karkat has given to him, but supposes he's gotten really lucky with catching Karkat just at the right moments. He notices Karkat's intense stare on the remote, and it begins to wobble, the buttons going crazy and the channels flipping each second. Kankri watches with interest, wanting to see what his brother has in store for the both of them to watch. 'Better be something with a good plot.' He concedes, and sits back.//

(Where's your freakin reply O:<)

( ... x'D was working on your Nyt. Just finishing him up. )

CG: * " Whatever. " A good polt does sound nice, right now. Back to the tv. Skimming through most of the romcom scenes, after watching most of them already, Karkat spots one that he hadn't. Bringing the channel surffing (-_-?) to an end. It starts out with a couple walking home, late at night, just chatting over about how their night was. Always a cute thing to see. Within a matter of secounds it skips, to a much darker sence. The camra moves along what looks to be a bed. Following up to the couple they just saw. Gasps and snaom came from the two. Karkats eyes widen. Flustered. Not meaning to have this playing. *

TI: //His eyes widen to the size of saucers at the same time Karkat's do, and he reaches for the remote to go on and switch the channel but fumbles when the man begins to thrust wildly and the woman screams- the remote drops to the floor and Kankri trembles, trying to pry his gaze away from the erot1c scene but failing miserably. He gulps, and slowly reaches out to Karkat's mind, saying quietly, 'Oh my god, this is not what I had planned. What were you thinking? Do you usually watch this kind of stuff?'//

(//Eskimo kisses you back, then continues snuggling lovingly// I missed you! One of my friends ignored me the entire day, so I just backed off and thought about you and Homestuck and potential roleplay ideas.)

CG: * " IT'S NOT LIKE I PLANNED THIS EITHER! N-NO, I DON'T WATCH STUFF LIKE THAT! IT WAS SOMETHING NEW IN THE CHANNEL SELECTIONS! " * The movie only gets worse. The two teens about had enough with this since Kankri seemed stunned. Karkat scrambbles, out from the blanket, to tople to the floor side ways. Grabbing the remote, he changes the station. *

(( Missed you too! Er, Maybe they were having a bad day? * fewls honored to be part of your daily thoughts * o: You alright? Was everything else okay? ))

(//Whispers I talk about you a lot. My friends know you <33// And maybe. But meh, other than my cough being a nuisance, everything's cool. Watch out for fluff in stores near you soon)

TI: //As Karkat topples onto the floor, Kankri catches a peek of more highly inappropriate things before being dragged down to the floor as well. It's a chain reaction; The blanket's not very big in the first place, and the two, being so tangled up together under it in the first place, are caught in a flurry of movement and flailing limbs as Kankri safely lands on top of his brother, hovering directly above him with his hands on either sides of the teen's head. 'Good job changing the channel,' is all he muster up in his thoughts besides tiny subconcious whispers telling him that Karkat's freckles are really attractive.//

(*and the two, being so tangled up under it, anyways- *all he can muster)

(( Ah great. You blew my cover. Now your friends know I'm gniklats them. -v- That's good you're alright. ))

(( FINALLY RP'D ON CRONKRI QVQ. ))

(Knowing Reagan, she's probably been stalking you since you were an eight year old and maybe even lent you an extra pair of socks at one point. She knows your troll design and finds Momo really cute <33)

(Replied to CronKri)

CG: Nothing like that should even be on public tv...
* Kankri was only inches from his own face. It made Karkat's heart skip a beat. Why? It hadn't done that when the two of them were snuggling in the ridiculous amont of plushies. Was it because this time they were facing eachother? "Why-.. would that-.. " A little red dusts Karkats cheecks. His thoughts go back and forth of whether to speak up or to leave it at that. * Kankri-.. Can we- I mean can you.. You know.. Er, let me?

(( QvQ awwe. Reagan sounds so nice. ))

(She is an extremely funny and witty and cool person. I couldn't possibly compare uwu //Buckles you to me, then takes you around places; Whispers you're my favorite person on Earth//)

(( Awe, don't be so modest. You've done out smarted a lot of people. I'm sure of it. * goes along with the ride * Wish we could of lived in the same area QvQ Would huggle the fuuqq out of you all day every day. ))

TI: //Feeling the tension easily, Kankri finds the best way to slice through it is to do the exact opposite of what his little brother expects of him. 'Time to be thinking outside the box!' he declares silently, and instead of getting off, he hooks his legs around Karkat's and stays there, looking smug at his dominant position, though his brain taunts him for only wanting a good excuse to count his brother's freckles.//

(Omg- I would huggle you wayyyy more. I survive off of hugs. Hey, would you mind moving to Illinois for me? XD)

(( Hell I would! Hows the weather there? Rainy? Snow much? OvO ))

(Actually, it's sunny -unfortunately for me- and there's a nice breeze. I think it's like 70 degrees? Idk)

CG: K-ankri?! Don't you think you're a bit too close?
* That look. It wasn't one that Karkat saw often. Looked like Kankri was way to pleased. Kind of irritated him for no piticular reason. Karkat huffs, turning his head away from the older. *

(( SOUNDS GREAT! * packs things without care * HERE I COMES! QvQ))

(Aight, we got a guest bedroom with two beds. I'll be waiting for the doorbell. We eat dinner usually around 6-7ish o'clock. :p)

TI: //Shrugs nonchalantly, and gets in a little bit closer, so their faces are barely centimeters apart from touching// Not at all. //He growls in frustration as Karkat turns his head so he is unable to count the really adorable freckles. He grabs KK's cheeks, and turns the boys face back towards him, making soft sooshing noises// Hold on a second... 35, 36...

(( Perfect! ^^ See you later then! XD ))

CG: * Baring his teeth, getting rather annoyed at this point. *
ARE YOU IN YOUR RIGHT OF MIND? SCRATCH THAT. YOU'RE NOT. KANKRI. I SWEAR, IF YOU DON'T. I HAVE THE RIGHT TO PUSH YOU OFF!

* Alright. He wouldn't go that far. But if he sounded peeved maybe Kankri would do as he was told. * (( o,o ... We forgot Troll jesus? XD))

(Sufferer works two jobs, remember? They're kind of poor, so dad's working all the time and they never really see him at all anymore)

(( QvQ oh yeah. Sorry. Forgot a bit. ))

TI: //Sighs, and lets go of Karkat's face, but decides to test the limits and stay on, continuing to count the little dots. When Karkat begins to move his head again, Kankri starts to gripe and whine until the boy faces him again and he can finish up the count. Once he's done, he smiles, flushed in the face slightly as he realizes how many of the darned cute things litter Karkat's entire face. Words stream out in muffled sentences, but Kankri doesn't pay attention, just thinks to the both of them: 'I really like you.' Then rephrases it quickly, adding, '-your face. It's nice. I want freckles.'//

CG: * Brows knitted in anger, as he waits for the other to finish what ever he was counting. Karkat shuts his eyes waitting for it to be done with. That is till Kankri speaks his mind. Surelly the older one had just been thinking without sense? *
I could say to same for yours, but if you like them so much why not get a sharpie and dot your self. * he retorts rolling his eyes. *

TI: //Snorts and lets his head fall on to Karkat's shoulder, thinking// Well, it wouldn't look natural on me, first of all. Secondly, I meant that I want your entire cute face. How do you suppose I go and get that? At a store? Hell, no. We can't even swap bodies like Freaky Friday. Life sucks. //Exhales loudly with a tinge of misery//

CG: * Kankri still not letting up on all the physical contact. Which was pretty odd, because usually Kankri disliked being touched, just as much as Karkat disliking people messing with him belongings. Not even going to try to persuade Kankri, he lets it be. *
Well, technically you could, with plastic surgry and what not. But like that's even possible for us to switch. Don't even like asian food.

(And I'll reassure Karkat that Kankri still hates being touched when they go to school on Monday. At the bus stop. You'll see >u>)

TI: //Kankri shakes his head, and then bravely reaches up and twirls a strand of Karkat's messy hair as his head rests on the younger one's shoulder.// Technically, I wouldn't be able to get even plastic surgery. We're not rich enough for a stunt like that. Besides, your face looks great on you. I would put your face to shame. //As Kankri says this, he inhales regularly and thinks softly, 'You smell good.' His eyes start to droop as he begins forgetting all about the ice cream plan. 'Karkat, you're really warm and comfy. Can I... just... sleep.'//

CG: * readied for giving Kankri a better explaination of what he could of done, but stops him self. Kankri basically just called him cute. Well, anything but ugly. That is. And smelled great. And thats when Kankri decides to have a slumber party on Karkat. *
Kankri? You're not asleep are you?
* sadly Karkat was wrong. His brother had surely passed out right then in there. Karkat would of moved him off, but that'd take a lot of effort. Seeing to Kankri being taller by more or less of a foot tall, it also came with more wright. Even though Kankri was as thin as he could be. And Karkat didn't want to waste time removing him. So he left Kankri be. Just studing the others features as he did his. Kankris hair, even though it was just as dark as night as his own, if one looked at it in the right light, it would give off a nice tint of red. Kankris eye lashes were quite long and lushus for a males, and his lips were-... -

CG: * Karkat dozes off. Unable to focus on Kankri any longer, as he lays there. Giving in to hid dreams, hoping not to find any nightmares for the night. He sleeps contently through out. *

(//makes suggestive slurping noises at Karkat, breaking the fourth wall for a few seconds//)

(( ... XD ))

(//screams// KISS ALREADY JFC)
---It's Monday. Kankri has spent his time bonding with his brother and Karkat dedicates his time to forgetting about Sollux, which leads to him learning new and different thing's he'd forgotten about his brother. They're now currently at the bus stop, and it's a very chilly morning. Usually, they stand on opposites sides, but this time, Kankri decides to re-arrange things.---

(Man.. I put so many grammatical errors in that, I hate it. Krill me now)
TI: //Kicks at the ground, pushing up a few blades of grass and dirt, which scatter in all directions and dirties his tennis shoes as he thinks very carefully to Karkat: 'Can we break routine? I miss you already.'//

(( NUPE NO KISS, NO K!LL XDDD ))

(you're so cruel D':)

CG: * Karkat being grumpy, not just because it's a monday, but because he woke up finding drool on his clothes. And he thought he was the only one. *
" No. Don't. "

(brb dinner)

(( o-o ... Very. But
1.Would you kiss your sibling after something like that?
2, I want you to live long and prosper. ))

( tyt :p )

TI: //Kankri slumps over, his backpack really heavy, and he just feels rejected in general. 'I'm sorry I slobbered on you last night. I must have been feeling really comfortable or something, because I don't usually do that... There, apology over. Can we socialize now or do I have to kiss your b.utt in order to get what I want?'//
(Now brb)

CG: * With his best british accent, lacedbwith sarcasm, * "You sure do you bloody git. No, don't. We could.. Apologie accepted. *

TI: //Growls quietly, giving up any facade of niceness, and tackles Karkat into the grass, sitting on top of him. He then proceeds to stay there, crossing his arms and refusing to move from his spot, just like he'd done on Saturday night. He huffs loudly, finally speaking out loud,// Well, I guess I'm not moving until the bus comes, and literally everyone will see you writhing pitifully under your brother. If I get a promise of social interaction, this will not happen. Choose wisely, the bus is going to arrive in exactly 4 minutes.

(Oh shoot I didn't see your thingy DX)

(Eh, it was like one sentence long anyways. We'll just pretend Karkat said apology accepted but still no :p)

CG: THE HELL KRI! YOUR SUPPOSE TO BE THE MATURE ONE HERE! * Karkat deprately tries to push him off, but his attempts fail * COME ON! I DON'T WANT TO HAVE TO EXPLAIN THIS TO EVERYONE!! * He cries out *

TI: //Mercilessly does nothing, only responding with a 'Say you'll hang out with me at lunch and we have a deal,' in their heads. Besides that, he remains stoically silent and taps his watch, signaling the time, which is counting down how long it'll take for the buss to come.//

CG: * He could hear the bus making its way down the road * FINE DEAL!! GET THE FUUQQ OFF BEFORE I GET PHYSICAL ALL UP ON YO SAS!! * Karkat snarls, really hating his brothers stubbornness. *

TI: //Loving how much control he's in, he tweaks his brother's nose just to get on the boy's nerves before jumping off and wiping away any invisible dirt that might have collected on his behind or front. He turns around, and helps Karkat up onto the teen's two left feet (what a clutz) just as the bus appears in view. He smiles, and grabs Karkat's hand, dragging the boy onto an empty bus but for the driver. There, as they sit down, he snickers evilly.// Guess you forgot there was marching band practice this morning and nearly everyone went.

(gtg, parents are bein weird. pls reply <33 I love you)

( AWE! BUT IT'S FRIDAY MAN ? QvQ okay. Byes love. Pleasent dreams. )

CG: * Karkat baps then hand away but misses as Kankri chooses to stand up at the time. Turning around Kankri offers Karkat a hand. He refuses to take the others with remorse. Forced onto the bus, Karkat finds it just about empty. Dragged along with Kankri, Karkat feels his ears heat up. Really furious he'd fallen for Kankris trap. * I'M NOT HANGING OUT WITH YOU. GOT THAT. * After the weekend events Karkat figured if he acted normal, everyone else would to. As for Kankri. Hw refused to do the same. To be hyper active was more like it. *

CG: * Karkat just couldn't believe Kankri had pulled a low dir.ty move on him. It was really so unlike the Kankri he had lived with the week before. It was peculiar. It was a drastic change. "Even so, I suppose it's a better change." slips through the mental bond they shared. *

(( O_o Dreams.. "You and I were in a lovely huge auditorium with thousands of other kids. We all had a toy, and placed them in neat piles all over the stage. After everyone had turned in a toy, we jumped off stage, free falling, then splashing into water. It was now a place of swimmimg partys and boat docking. But the boats were like toy ships, as well as for the dock. Everyone was having fun, Swimming, throwing beach balls and drinking soda. But some where near the end of the dock, a little boat catches fire, we swim to it, and toss water on it. Easy. But there was a cop, ... in swim trunks scoping out the boat, saying we can't touch the boat. The boy who owns it cries, and friends try to comfort him, And for some da.mn reason I declare it unfair that we can't tpuch the boat. We roar in asking all the kids to unite with us in rebellion. Then we were standing on the floor of the auditorium, shouting "WE ALL GO MARCHING ONE BY ONE! HONK! (x2) HONK HONK!! WE GO ALL GO MARCHING, DOWN, -

(( ALL AROUND!" Until you an I stand on the stage, surrounded by toys, kids, and a few mics. " (( That's it... O-o CreepsMcPasta then woke me up... ))

(Huh! That's strange. I had a dream about you last night, too .-.)

TI: //His plan having seemingly misfired due to his low blow, Kankri tugs on his brother's sleeve pleadingly, whining just a little in complaint.// But, Karkat, you promised! You said you would. I'm sorry for doing that, but I felt that I had to, otherwise you wouldn't hang out with me, ever! Turns out, it went down the same path even if I did force it upon you. //He sighs, keeping their hands folded together, and when hears Karkat's thought, he smiles bashfully. 'I love you, too.' He thinks, and he feels his hands tremble with anxiety as he waits for a negative response to his positive attitude on their newly reformed relationship.//

(( o-o share? :'D ))

CG: * A ping of guilt strikes him for being so harsh on his brother. After all Kankri had helped him recover from the rejection. Karkat should at least give 'kindness' a try towards the older one. He squeezes his brothers hand before softly saying, * Fine, we'll hang out.. I Love you too. * the last four words more hushed than a whisper. Today might be a long day. *

(Sh.it, I had to go eat lunch because parents were forcing me to, sorry D': I'm back now)
TI: //Kankri smiles widely, his pearly whites painfully obvious to see as he feels his stomach do a few flipflops. He squeezes Karkat's hand in thanks, rubbing a thumb over the boy's knuckle soothingly. 'Are you ready to face the day?' he wonders quietly, staring at the scenery outside as the bus zooms by everything, steadily coming towards school at a pace they couldn't possibly stop.//

( Tis fine ^^ )

(We were cuddling inside a locker room at my school. Idk why, but I was happy as a calm at low tide)

(( Awe fluff QvQ ))

CG: * Karkat stares blankly at the seats, if its texture some how had interest. giving a nod ' Not entierly. But I'll live. Are you? ' he leans on Kankris shoulder. *

(Yeah and then we stole an old man's iPad and everything went weird, but meh.)

(( O.o .. hmm did old man look like a white 'Papa' smurf ?))

TI: //Kankri feels his heart shudder as Karkat leans on his shoulder of his own will, and gleefully kisses Karkat's large mass of hair, chuckling, though his thoughts were taking a darker turn. 'Not so much. I'm scared for you. I don't want you to go to classes, I just want to keep you at home and shelter you from the outside world, despite how incredibly insane that sounds. I mean, look at us. We're communicating through our minds, and just last night the shower went crazy because I'd wished for warmer water. I'm afraid that you'll get hurt, and I don't want that to happen, Karkat. I'm just scared, in general.'//

(Nah, he looked like a hispanic version of Obama ._.)

(( ... yep pure weirdness... X"D sounds nice though ))

(We played Temple Run on the iPad and you got frustrated because you couldn't make it to the next level O:)

CG: * " When the did you have time to shower? Okay never mind that, but don't worry. Theres nothing at school thats going to be harmful. Unless you count everything that's even there. Do you have any idea how a book is considered a weapon? Besides you said it'd go away eventally. So it's not like we'll have it for the rest of our lives. " Karkat paps their joined hands in reas.surance. *

(( ... '>v> irony that I seriously can't... What about you? ))

(//Looks at you, pulls out the family iPad, and shows you highscore. It says 0.// AsdfgHJKL)

(( Ah, you don't play? xD Or that bad? ))

(Jk the highscore is like 83 but yeah my entire family just plain sucks. I rock at Fruit Ninja, though >u>)

(( <O< YOU UNLOCK EVERYTHING? ))

TI: //Kankri shakes his head in complete disagreement, knowing he'd be the darkness that consumed the light at the end of the tunnel in this conversation. 'I'm not talking about any plain old object at school that could be used as a potential weapon. I'm speaking of the people. People frighten me with their unpredictability. I hate them. It's why I don't have very many friends, and you know that. With you, though, you're special. I can see within the four so-called corners of your mind, and I can predict. Things, however, are still somewhat of a surprise, but I suppose that's the trade-in for overall predictiveness. And Karkat, I never said I was absolutely 100 percent certain about our powers being temporary. This could possibly last forever, or until we die. I'm not in control here.'
He shivers, the cool air from outside easily slipping in through the closed window panes on the bus, which is halfway to school already.//

(Yeah, actually. And I did it before there was starfruit >u>)

(( AH YOU SO PRO!! OAO ))

(//Bows//)

CG: * Karkat sighs, knowing Kankri was right about all. " Kids are merciless, but they are others to help. You know it. There are bound to be people to stick up for those in need. " sensing the trimer through Kankris hand, Karkat puts his arm around him. Thinking that'd help. *

TI: //The older teen leans into Karkat's embrace, trying warm up, and nods. 'That's not the reason why I dislike them so much, however. But I'm not afraid for *me*, Karkat. I legitimately do not want you at school for perhaps another three months. If I could make it so the law would allow it, then you wouldn't go. Unfortunately, life doesn't work that way and I, as well as dad, would get into serious trouble for keeping you away from any educational influences for so long. There are certain people that I don't want anywhere near you. At all. Every single person in that school has the potential to hurt you, and I hate that I can't protect you from it! I really do.' Kankri grips his sibling's hand firmly, then releases it and softly begins to trace the patterns in the boy's rough palms.//

(He's talking about Sollux hurting Karkat, in case you're not getting the hint uwu)

(( Is ' needed after names? Really because doesn't it stand for is? Or am I forgetting a rule;-? o: ))

(( I know :p ))

CG: * Kankri. It'll be fine. I'll handle everything with caution today if it's bugging you that much. I'll even come talk to you if it's urgent. Everything has potential, and you'd be doing the impossible if you tried to even protect me. Just let the subject be. We got classess soon. " Karkat tries to say this all, in the nicest way he possibly could to his brother. Since Kankris over protective instincts have highly increased. *

(An apostrophe paired with an s after a name or a noun signifies possesion. Example- That is Eridan's scarf.)

(If a name or a noun is without an apostrophe, like this- "Laylas vehicle died." You are saying that there were many people named Layla whose car broke down.)

(( Ah, thank you >.< ))

(Now read that out loud so you don't forget X'D)

TI: //Kankri, soothed by his brother's comforting voice inside his mind, finally lets go of his argument and shrugs a little, though is mindful of Karkat's head still tucked in the space between his neck and shoulder. He lays his chin ontop of his brother's hair, resting there until the school building comes into their line of sight. 'I don't want to get up, you're warm,' Kankri complains silently, hugging his brother as much as he can as the long yellow van comes to a wheezing stop.//

CGg: * " We have to. Come on. The quicker we get this over with, the sooner we could walk home, ride the bus, what ever way, as long as it's home. " Kart shakes Kankri's arm. When he doesn't dudge, Karkat takes Kankri's hand into him, gentlly pulling him along off the bus.*

(YES I FINISHED THE LINEART I AM SO PROUD HHHNNGGG)

(( Yay! :3 Now proceed! ))

(( o_o i think i'm in deep doodoo now... I reported my own comment when i meant to delete it :'D ))

(Oh my god Momo XD You dingus)

(( I know. I know. x'D But in my defense the buttons are too close for spam clickers QvQ ))

TI: //Dragged off the bus by his little brother, whom he found he was starting to love more and more with each second, he knew that he was in deep trouble. The only other thing he loved with a passion as bright was his studies, and he'd always thought it'd be like that forever. Apparently he was being proved wrong, even as they walked inside the main entrance, students bustling here and there, busy like a beehive due to the marching band activity going on later that day. Karkat's hand slips from his hand as he heads to class, and Kankri's heart squeezes painfully in its cage. He reaches out again, grabbing it and petting the back of Karkat's hand, thinking warmly, 'I love you! See you later!'//

CG: * " Gugh!! I hate throngs!! " Making his way through; not trying to shove anyone blocking their path. Karkat soon reaches the point where Kankri and him would have to go their separate ways. Letting go of Kankri's hand, only to have him catch it once more, telling him his 'Love'. Turning around, Karkat does as well " Yea, Love you too. " with a quick smile, before heading off. He was dreeding his classess. Specially with Sollux. Even so, if Karkat had any issues he did promise to tell Kankri. Seems like he's been making a lot of them with the latter. Karkat shooes the thoughts away, right as he enters first period. *

(Alright, I have a choice: RP only Kankri, RP only Sollux, or RP both, which'll be a bit longer.)

(( All up to you :p Your RP, Just say when ever you need help, and I'll take on others the KK. ))

TA: //Sollux flops into his seat, the class room mostly empty since he's here early, but his lower half drops and he's left with a sick feeling. He honestly does not want to see Karkat's face. It's all Karkat's fault- that's the conclusion he's come up with- that Aradia refuses to kiss him anymore. If Karkat hadn't of barged in without notice, and then RANDOMLY told them his 'feelings' (if he even had any and was just saying that so Aradia wouldn't go out with him) Aradia would have maybe continued to kiss him, and maybe he would have gotten to second base Saturday afternoon. But noooo, of course not. He breaks his pencil, then grabs another from his pencil case and snaps it in half again, imagining it belongs to Karkat. Then, speak of the devil- he walks in, along with another string of nameless students Sollux didn't care about. Karkat slides into his charted seat- which is beside him, and that used to be a good thing, but now? No way- and fumbles with his stuff as Sollux glares.//

TI: //Kankri carefully sits down in his seat up in the front, where he'd asked to be seated in the beginning of the year because he could focus his best up here, and silently reassures Karkat that he'll be fine and that if Sollux does anything, Kankri will bolt from his advanced Calculus class and beat the sh.it out of him. Mr. Zahhak walks in, and starts teaching, and Kankri automatically absorbs the information while tuning in to Karkat's thoughts. Multitasking is easy and comes naturally to Kankri, thankfully.//

(( Ovo! STILL ALIVE! -replys- ))

(Replied on grub RP -w-)

CG: * Hundreds- No thousands of knots tie their selfs together to make on unbelieve knotted ball inside Karkats stomach. He knew exactly why. " I can feel his glares, they're worse compaired to mine.. They seem cold and so full of hate. Why? Does he really hate the orientation that much? Maybe. It might also be dealing with Aradia sticking up for him. But why? For all I know they're still in contact with eachother. I really won't be for sure. But his stares are becoming really nerve racking. Please. Get this over with. Or someone. Oh mighty teachers call one of us to the da.mned office. Or even a random seating change from the teacher! " * Karkat just about slams his head into the desk out of being hopeless. Knowing none of the would happen. So he sits through class, doodling in his notebooks. *

TA: //He snorts at his neighbor's pathetic behavior, not relenting in his cold stare until the bell rings, in which he whips his stuff on faster than one can blink, and shoves past many others to get to his next class, not caring if they fell down or gave him nasty looks.//

(( done? :p ))

TI: //Hearing his brother's distress call, he grips his desk to keep himself from literally standing up in the middle of class and finding Karkat's just to hug him. Instead, he continuously asks different questions about what Karkat's drawing, or learning, or if he can help with Karkat's schoolwork, acvidentally letting some of his calculus problems leak through the con.nection occasionally as he learns at the same time. Once the bell rings, he's the first outside, and tracks Karkat down like a hunting dog. He snags ahold of him in the hallway, and pulls them both behind the vending machine, where he drops his books and pins the other against the wall, just hugging him. Knowing he's acting crazy, he makes up for it by saying quietly, outside the link,// I can walk you to your next class, if that's alright.

(now done)

(Kankri's intense, man. Like. About anything he actually loves. He's passionate about his speeches, his studies, and now Karkat. His attachment is going to be extremely unhealthy, let me just warn you now.)

CG: * After helping up Nepeta, from Captors inconsiderate mood, Karkat apologizes for him, then leaves for his next class. Taken off his coruse, to be pulled aside by Kankri and hugged tightly. Karkat does the same back. Inhaling his brothers scent. Glad to be away from the Sollux. About to refuse Kankri's offer, he changes his mind. * N-. Yeah. Please. It'd be nice of you if you did..

(( That's like the best kind of love. The kind you " Can't get enough. " :P ))

(It's frustrating, though. 'Cause Kankri will never have his fill. It will always just not be enough. >o<)

(( Awe ovo poor Kri. ))

(( Destained to crave love for the rest of his life. >v< ))

(Woah, you're online? Well, I replied on the grub RP XD)

(And yeah, poor Kri. It's my fault, since I make him that way >u>)
TI: //Feeling Karkat take his scent in, Kankri shudders unnoticeably, then presses his lips against Karkat's forehead, breathing in and out, trying to calm himself. 'I heard how much trouble you were having during the entire class period,' he whispers in their minds, then parts from the tight embrace, his heart aching. He hold Karkat's hand, picks up his fallen books, and starts off in the direction of his brother's class, the throng of students unrelenting. Once they reach the door, Kankri ruffles the younger one's hair affectionately, then pats his back, urging him into the room with a small,// Only four more periods until we get out of here. //Then, with one last longing look, he heads to his own class room.//

(( Oh, no. I'm still sleeping as to my new bot is typing for me. I just wish it'd quit elbowing my sides. :p ))

(....What? XD)

(Omggg just got an idea ouo Wanna hear?)

CG: * " Sorry. I didn't interrupt your class did I? I'll try to keep it to a minimum. " He tells, but Kankri objects, as he's walked to class. Trailing right behind. Kankri shooes him into his second period. Stumbling in Karkat holds his head, where Kankri had just had his own hand. An impression was left behind. He didn't want to get rid of it, but it'd look weird if he didn't. So Karkat messes with his hair, then takes his seat, as others fill the empty desk. *

(( You know I'll listen to all your ideas. XD Spill the bucket, now tell. ))

(Okay, basically, during lunch, a bunch of jerks approach Kankri and Karkat's table, calling them fa.gs and whatnot, and Kankri just ignores it since he's used to it, though Karkat had no idea Kankri was being bullied, so he tries to stand up for them, but gets punched in the stomach. At that exact moment, the fire alarm goes off, and the sprinklers in the ceiling spurt out in waterfalls, as if attempting to drown the guys for what they did. The bathrooms throughout the building go crazy and flood, and Karkat has to calm Kankri down, then they ditch school and head home 0w0)

(Now imagine how dangerous that water would have been if Karkat had used his electrokinesis eue)

(( O,o oh my word. Genius!! ))

(Not really... o-o I just get ideas sometimes. Don't you?)

(( yeah '-' but yours are a lot better. ))

TI: //Time flies by, and soon, two classes are over with, signaling it to be advisory, the only period that held different grades in one room. It's the only period he shared with his brother, and usually, they sat on opposite ends of the class.room, since Sollux and Karkat would hang out while Kankri studied. But Kankri's very certain things will be different this time. He steps in, finding Karkat sitting in his seat uncomfortably, fidgeting in his spot. He fastwalks over to the boy, and instead of embracing him like he'd done earlier since they didn't have the cover of a vending machine, he just brushes their hands against each other in greeting. 'So I see you're sitting with me todayand it's not even lunch yet. Eager to study, I suppose?' he teases lightheartedly, then pulls a chair up, sitting next to his brother and pulling out his Chemistry book. Thankfully, Sollux was still on the other side of the class room, pestering Aradia, it appeared.//

(*today and)
(Also I bet your ideas rock. I mean, just look at your dreams and your art! Wow o:)

CG: * as the bell rings, Kankat is te first one out, but sured not to cause anyone harm as he makes a dash for the next class. Upon getting there he was the fourth out of a few other students who'd already came in. He takes his brothers seat. Waiting for his arrival. No longer than that Kankri comes in. Already pulling his belongings out for his daily study. Karkat resist the strong urge to glomp, thinking
' Heh, as if. ' he says with a faint smile. He too then pulls out his mathmatic text book, but for compeltelly different reasons that Kankri. *

TI: //Curious, Kankri eyes the textbook and then Karkat. 'If you're not going to study, then what are you doing with a Geometry book out? Are you going to tear off the corners of the paper and throw spitballs?' he wonders incredulously, blinking. His knee accidentally-on-purpose bumps Karkat's, and he tries to hide the smile with a palm, masking the snicker as a small cough.//

CG: * 'What? No. Have you any idea where this books been before it was as.signed to me? No. ' * he opens it, revealing folded papers, enough to curve the books insides around it. Making it hard to completely close it. Karkat unfolds a few. Showing that the were notes from pervious classess, but with doodles scattered around. 'No reason to keep things if they're of no interest. ' He marks, when Kankri evidently coughs. *

TI: //Kankri takes Karkat's notes, staring at the doodles. 'You're pretty talented,' he thinks, and traces a drawing of Karkat himself with the pad of his finger, liking that he's following the exact path Karkat was going at one point. Then he snaps out of his trance, and sighs.// You'll never get good grades if this is all you're doing in class besides listening to the teacher. How are you not getting caught? //He looks over the writing, wincing at the scrawl, but thankfully is able to read it, anyways. Now knowing what chapter Karkat's on in his class, Kankri scoots his chair closer to his brother and begins to re-teach him very carefully. One-on-one always seemed to help Karkat, so this is good. At one point, he somehow is able to get their legs intertwined without the boy complaining.//
Now are you getting it? The principle of it all is within the equation.

CG: * shugs to the question. * Don't know, don't care. The guy's a bore. * Karkat listens to Kankri, taking him step by step on the geometry. * Yeah, so a squared plus b squared would equal c squared, then we root it to simplify? Easy enough. But was if there is no a or b? * Karkat already knew how to use the formula. He only asked to have Kankri explain. A sort of his own way of teasing Kankri, even if he doesn't know, Karkat had purposely begain failing just to listen to Kankri blabber on. Karkat leaves his thoughts, shaking his head 'yes' to what ever Kankri was saying. *

TI: //Kankri shakes his head, amused by Karkat's antics, but completely serious about the math.// You learn the Archimedes principle in eighth grade, Karkat. But just where did you hear about rooting the problem to simplify it?
Your teacher's an idiot... //He mutters, and starts directing Karkat onto the right path again, and right as he's starting to understand it, the bell rings and it's lunch time. He gathers both of their things neatly, and hands Karkat his things after he picks up his own stuff. They migrate with the others to the cafeteria, and Kankri settles in his usual spot, patting the space on the bench next to him, signaling for Karkat to park his behind right there.
Kankri unzips his backpack, taking out a ratherly large lunchbox stuffed with food contents. 'I packed lunch for us since dad wants us to refrain from consuming school food.' He informs through the link, and right after he says so, three jocks strut over, and hover intimadatingly above the short---

(*intimidatingly)
TI: Vantas siblings.//
J1: Haha, what a fu.ckin' f.ag. What now, Kankles? You got your baby brother, f.ag junior, to come and defend you? Wow, G.aylord Nerdfu.ck is gathering followers! Who would've thought. //Laughs//

CG: I know. * he grins, Kankri telling him the proper way of the problem. Bells chime, when Kankri scopes everything up. *

Thank you. * Karkat takes his things appreciativelly, and the move out of the room. Arriving at Kankri's usual seat, he motions for Karkat to have a seat. The brother pulls out the most largest lunch contain, he'll probably ever see, he doesn't remember seeing the thing any where in the kitchen when he went on snack raids. Before he could ask Kankri about the container, he could feel another towering over them. The guy throws insults at Kankri. It was rather irratating because who'd want that during whats supose to be a non-stressful period. Being lunch. " Kankri. Why's he being such a dou.che? It's not like you'd fight with anyone to cause problems? " *

TI: //Kankri smiles weakly at Karkat, and answers in a trembling thought-voice, 'Just ignore it. It happens everyday. I sort of forgot, so I apologize. I don't know where else to sit, though. Every other seat is taken.'
He takes out a sandwich, and squeezes his eyes shut as it's ripped from his hands and slammed to the floor, then stepped on by the second jock as the first continues laughing at the both of them. He sighs, and leans against the table, really wanting to feed his brother but afraid the food will be wasted once he takes it out of the box.//

CG: Every day? You forgot? * his tone suprised with concern.
* 'This is just down right stupid..' As that was thought, the jocks pursue to mess with Kankri. It was already starting to pi.ss Karkat off that his brother had forgotten about them. How was that even possible if it happens everyday? It needs to stop. Now. Karkat jumps up from his seat getting into the two's personal space. *
To be picking on the innocent. You're worth much less than a piece of sh.t. You don't even deserve to even have human rights with that attitude! * His rage builds with each word, coaxing them with vinum. Like a shaken up soda bottle, it pops, when they continue to laugh at his brother. Karkat clenches his fist. Socking the secound jock in the jaw. *

TI: //Kankri holds out his arm to stop Karkat from what he's about to do, but his brother's too fast for him to get a grip on, and he watches in horror (and slight satisfaction) as Karkat punches one of the jocks straight in the jaw. He inwardly congratulates Karkat, but then tries to coax him back over immediately so they can get away with the hit without any aftereffects.//
J2: //Wipes his mouth, glaring at the tiny squirt who'd dared even lay a puny french fry of a finger on his face. He notices his friend stop laughing, and then he glances back down at the seething little fa.ggot who forgot where his place is. He pops his knuckles threateningly, and not saying a word back, he grinds a fist into the boy's midsection, watching on with a smirk as he coughs up blood.//
TI: //As he sees this, his mind automatically darkens and something inside him snaps when he catches sight of the blood. The fire alarms wail loudly in distress, and the sprinklers blast searing hot water, the---

TI: //jetstreams mostly aiming at the jocks until the temperatures reaches boiling and the jock starts screeching from the horrible pain. His buddies run away, leaving the guy to fend for himself, and the cafeteria is deserted within minutes. Kankri lets up on the water, glaring at the jock, who's unconscious with welts and burns all over his body. Seeing red, he doesn't realize the kitchen sinks are flooding, filling the entire area with more than a foot of water. He stands there in the middle of the mess, and then finally attends to his injured brother, hugging him and starting to cry. He's hyperventilating, and his tears aren't from sadness, but from intense anger.//

CG: * Glares, at the baboon of a human, like daggers. Gifted with a strong blow to his lower half. Catching droplets of crimsion in his hand. Karkat wouldn't of hit the guy if he didn't believe it was a reasonable choice to make. Knowing that getting the sh.t pummled out of him for even doing so, was surely worth it. All because it was for Kankri's sake. Karkat kneels, holding his self, welding his eyes shut, bitting his own tongue to silence his cries. Hearing the girlish screams of the group sound in the distance. He gets to his feet, hunched over, when Kankri starts to weep. Karkat pats Kankri's back, embracing the hug. * 'Sorry. I didn't quite handly everything with caution like I said... Want to skip the rest of the day? ' He hushed.

(Karkat isn't affected by how much Kankri hurt the jock, or the state the cafeteria's currently in? Lol, Vantases.)

(( Shsss!! ))

^* drenched, he's to the bone his movements are slowed as his sweater soaks up the water

TI: //Kankri trembles with fury as Karkat paps him to calm him down, asking if he wants to just ditch school and walk home. Clinging to Karkat's soggy sweater, he nods vigorously, grabbing their stuff and hauling it all while grasping the other boy's hand, leaving this stupid place behind. The exit with other panicked students, and head off the school grounds, towards the crosswalk and nearing home. The entire time, Kankri can't stop from sobbing occasionally in anger, or scre.aming a little.// (gtg... till summer)

(( What! QAQ But! I thought they forgot?! D: Byes Kriska.. :/ ))

CG: * Being drenched to the bone, was very uncomfortable. Specially when Karkat simply wanted to get Kankri home. Sadly that'd be a long while. The water their clothes had adsorbed, made it difficult to move. To add, the had trudged through about knee high water just to leave the school. Once outside it only mad it worse. The wind blew, and Kankri had beome really on edge. Leaning a bit on his brother, right before crossing the road, he gives Kankri a kiss. It was one or sheer inappropriate affection towards the other, it was only a small one at that. Out of graitude that the brother had helped him get through the horrid day. *

(HUE HUE HUE *CHEATS ON THE COMPUTER* THEY'LL NEVER KNOW)

(OMG THEY KISSED?! HFKJDHSKAFHDSKJHFJKDSHDJKSHFAJKSDHAFJKDSHAFJKDSHKFADHSAFHJDKSAFKLDSHJHFDJKSHJKFDHSKALHFKDJSAHFKJDSHAFJKDSHALKFDJSKHFJKDSAHFJKDSAHFJKDSHFKDLSAHFDSAHJDHFAKDLHFAJSKLHDJKSLAHFHAFKDSJALHFLKDSAHFJKDSHAFJKDSA)

(( >v> Mhm. Now you have something to come back to. ))

TI: //Standing there, being kissed by his brother, Kankri feels his heart burst with affection. He drops their things, overwhelmed, and holds out his hands- not sure what to do with them at first- but finally just wraps them around the younger boy's waist, bringing him closer. He's not really sure what they're doing, especially since Karkat had only confessed his feelings for Sollux on Saturday morning, but Kankri likes it, and notes that if he's only an experiment, he doesn't give a flying fu.ck. He'll be the one to mend Karkat's heart until Karkat doesn't need him anymore, and he decides then and there that his brother is his most important thing in life. It might be the worst time to mention it, but...// I love you, //he breathes between the kiss, opening his eyes and looking directly into Karkat's.// I don't know what you're planning, but I'll do it. I promise I won't leave you, and I won't hurt you. Just... what was that?

(hhhHHHHHHHHHHH YOU'RE THE BAE)

(( THEY NEED TO PUT A FORMAT ON HERE FOR WEB COMMENTS >:p ... O///O ))

(Shhhhhsss I know you like it >:L)

CG: I-I love you, too. * Karkat breaks for air. Coming closer to Kankri for a tight embrace. Mubbling only loud enough for only he could hear. * Gratitude. Well, maybe not. There's a better word for it-..

(( *pap* <v< you know nothing! ))

(Besides everything :>)

TI: //Kankri inhales deeply as Karkat hugs him tighter, their bodies flush against each other within the embrace. Warm, he strains his ears to hear what his sibling has to say for himself, and shivers at Karkat's declaration of love for Kankri, as well. Then he continues, talking of gratitude. Kankri hums, thinking otherwise. He pets his brother's hair, liking how Karkat's wet sweater is soaking his own between their chests.// What are you thinking of? Describe the word, and I'll give it to you. //He softly kisses the boy's cheek just for the sake of it. 'He kissed me,' Kankri thinks giddily, and although he's majorly confused, he's happy at the same time. The butterflies are almost too much to handle.//

(( .. Another example of your smarts. x'D ))

(What smarts? //Looks at the chicken wrap in the fridge and shrugs// I need to eat... but I don't want to...)

(Make me want to eat in that special way of yours. Just. Somehow. Idk)

CG: It's an intense feeling of deep affection. Fondness or liking. Maybe even agreeable? Enjoyable? Satisfacory? No.. I heard that. * Karkats freckles are soon blended by cherry hues and shades. Maybe straight out kissing Kankri wasn't the most rational thing to do, but it seemed reasonable at the time. He lets go of Kankri, picking up the belongings, claiming it to be his turn to carry them, waiting for him to say it's alright to cross. *

(( ... ? xD The wrap, siys in the fridge. Chilling to the fridge's temperature. It sings out calling for someone. Anyone to come feast on it's insides. It's juicy chicken making it the best kind of wrap in the world. It's song was as sweet as a siren. ))

lays*

(//Slowly walks into the kitchen and takes it out// Alright, I have it. Now I gotta eat it O:)

(( Then do so? :p ))

TI: //Smiling, Kankri laughs as he hears Karkat describe the feeling, knowing exactly where it came from. He takes a binder from Karkat, sharing the load because Karkat looks hunched over from carrying too many things. He's already short, no need for him to appear shorter. 'What you just quoted was the exact definition of love from the American Oxford Dictionary, Karkat. Are you trying to tell me something?' He teases, then gestures at the other side of the street once no cars are passing. They both run over the crosswalk, and continue to stroll along the pathway, nearing their destination.//

(//Stares at it// ...)

(( CW: eat me please. ;p I've been waitting for you all day. Only for you. I've rejected everyone else. Do you not like me? Want me to bed for you to feast upon my chicken goodness? Please, won't you give be a sweet bliss? )) (( XDDD ))

CG: * Opps. Busted. Karkat should of known Kankri would spot something like that. Karkat had skimmed through one in his morning class, and the word happened to catch his eye. Since Kanri always had his own mini-hard back cover of that book. He could probably rummage in his brother backpack and seriously find it tucked away neatly. Meekly, *
No.. nevermind.
* Only a few yards from home. Great. Then he could just lay. For years to come. *

(AHA CAUGHT YOU)

(Okay I'll reply now >u>)

(//Saving my chicken wrap and going to eat it for lunch today hhhHHHHHH//)

TI: //Kankri sticks by Karkat's side the entire time they're walking home, inwardly laughing at his brother's antics. He felt so nice and toasty inside- that had truly been his first kiss. Karkat had been his first, and wow- the feeling is amazing, honestly. 'Karkat,' he wonders idly, 'was that your first kiss like it was mine?'

TI: //They reach the doorway, and Kankri feels his face become hot at the delay in reply on Karkat's part. He starts to think about his behavior at school, and how he was acting very clingy to Karkat, and just very strange in general. What was it about reading his brother's mind that made him love the other so much? And perhaps even more than family... how would their relationship work, anyways? Would they have to hide it from the world? Move to another country, and lie and say that they're only g.ay fa.ggots? Countries besides America aren't very accepting of these kinds of relationships, already. They could go to Tibet, he supposed. People there have third genders and all that jazz and nobody really gives a flying frick whether you're with the same se.x or not.

TI: //In all this time that he is thinking, Kankri has unlocked the door, walked in, put down his stuff, take off his shoes, and sit in the middle of the living room, thinking. Occasionally his eyes will dart to Karkat, and he'll admire those freckles once again. They *are* very pretty, after all. What's not to love about those dusty, darker bits of skin that stain red so easily?//

CG: * Karkat could tell Kankri was grining from ear to ear. Just from the new vides Kankri gave off. All bubbly and over joyfull. Karkat was happy to of been able to cause those sort feelings. And that was when Kankri popped in a qustion. It had caught him off gaurd. He never would of something after the events that happened in the past few days. Only feet from the door he figures it wouldn't effect much? Right? But for being Kankri's first he had a surge of incitement. Remaining calm, - * ' It was. ' Was the only thing he could come up with. Karkat could of said "No," playing it off as if it was a normal every day thing to kiss someone. To bad it wasn't for him. Mimicing Kankri, Karkat grabs a pillow, takes a seat on the couch, and rests his face into it. Since this afternoon, after the blow Karkat'd taken from the dastards, he's felt ill. Only to brush it off, in hopes Kankri wouldn't pay no mind. There'd probably be a large bruise later. ---

CG: * Certainly Kankri would continue to think he's fine. Unfortantly the phrase "Just walk it off." is totally BS. Karkat, closing his eyes, could only now think of Kankri's cheerful face from moments ago. Allowing some peace of mind, that even if the day was awful, that was enough to brighten it. *

He never would of thought* -_- first rep.

TI: //Hearing his reply about it also being his first, Kankri starts to warm up to impossible temperatures, just thinking about Karkat's first in many other things, too. But just as he begins to turn an entirely new shade of red that has yet to be discovered, he sneaks a look over at his brother and notices how pale he looks, and the way he's clutching his stomach, as if in pain, or feeling ill. The phrase 'walk it off is bull.sh-it' comes to mind, and Kankri shoots up out of his seat, then relaxes. There's a reason why Karkat is hiding this from him, and his overprotective nature is part of it. If he's calm about it, maybe Karkat won't be so hesitant to tell him things in the future. Kankri, instead of dashing into Karkat's arms and papping the sick one, runs into the kitchen and fills up a cup of water, then some asprin, because he honestly forgot whether it was tylenol or that one other thing that made pain go away, so asprin's the answer, he supposes. Karkat can always correct---

TI: him later, anyways.
Kankri lumbers out of the kitchen, and sits up all snuggly next to Karkat, unabashedly showing his affection by kissing him softly on the corner of his mouth (a cheek kiss, but really close to an actual one ^u^), and then offers the water and the medicine. 'You could tell me you're feeling bad,' Kankri points out. 'Then I can take care of you the right way. Or, at least, in the best way I possibly can. But hiding it will only make things worse.'
After that, he leans his head against the boy's, wrapping an arm around his waist and pulling him close.//

CG: * Doomp, doomp, doomp. Kankri sent large vibrations through the floor. Rushing of water, and plop of little splash. Kankri had found a place next to him. Gifting Karkat with a kiss. They are getting more common than he thought. The movement of the cusions, had made Karkat a bit more nausous. Looking to the glass, it hissed with the desolving asprin. He takes it, glupping the concoxion down while Kankri informs him. *

CG: * he nods 'Mhm'ing that he understood. Laying against Kankri's chest, he sniffles in to ghe damp cloth. Appriciative of having his brother around. Yet also a ping of guilt for treating him so poorly the last few years. Their relationship building, growing, into more than brotherly love. Karkat's ears burn at the thought. Could they? Even? *

TI: //Not knowing Karkat was carefully approaching the idea within his own mind, Kankri soaks in every opportunity that he can with Karkat's now soft personality. All it had taken to improve their relationship was just to get inside the other's mind and see their viewpoints- perhaps Sollux had "helped" them get closer by being a humongous jerkface to his little brother. Little factors here and there had contributed, and honestly, no matter the negative consequences, there were surely some good results, too. Kankri's never felt like this towards any person before; a burning passion of... of, well, emotion, and *want*. He *wants* to get as close as he possibly can to Karkat's heart and meld it within his hands, imprinting his name and making the boy belong to him. It's a foreign concept, but it's one that he can deal with, perhaps make it come true and satisfy that want, little by little in the future.

TI: //Making a daring move to conceivably show what he's feeling so intensely towards Karkat, and maybe finish what Karkat had started earlier, Kankri gently upturns his slightly ill companion's face, leaning in for another kiss. Their lips meld, and shape one another's mouths to their pleasure, then someone (can't remember who) sticks out their tongue and Kankri mo.ans in absolute bliss at the wonderful feeling he's receiving and offering to Karkat. Finally, they part for air after what seems to be an inhuman amount of time to not be breathing, panting in deep breath chants. Loving the dazed look on Karkat's face after such an occurrence, he nuzzles the boy's face and practically purrs.//

(YES I DID WHAT YOU THINK I JUST DID SO SUCK ON IT)

(( GOG NAMB IT, KRISKA!! XD ))

(( >_> That an invatation? I gladly accept. When and where? ))

CG: * Blinking at the unexpection of Kankri's outgoing surpirse. Karkat, grasps his brother's shirt, moving closer into it. Karkat couldn't even comprehend, let alone care if this was truely happening it was. Wheater it was just his imagination flying around over head from the sudden drowsiness. The two breaking away, he couldn't catch his own breath, even after minutes they've parted. It was just that good of a feeling. One that he hadn't wanted to end so soon. Karkat nuzzles back, curling up on the couch. *

(Aight meet me at ------- on ---- --, in the back of the -----, so we can ----.)

(>u>)

(( * fills in the blanks * All right so, the corner, your mom, shop, copulate. <v< ))

(Shhhssss I put blanks there for a reason so strangers wouldn't see our secret language! Spolier alert, omgf >:U
But yes.
Exactly owo)

(//Snickers immaturely at the word copulate//)

(( Quite you, Shakespear didn't create the English language to have people mock him. :p ))

Quiet* -v-

(( Nabit. You left c': ))

(Well it's a lot easier just to say fu.ck ... I mean, I even put four dashes just for that purpose XD)

TI: //Enthralled by his brother's positive response, he wants nothing but to pin Karkat against the couch cushions and ravish him, but a relationship takes time to build, and he has to be realistic about this. There are many reasons at the moment not to have se.x with the boy, and all of them have good arguments behind them. He sighs, and curls up against Karkat; though the mood is intensively se.xual, and he quivers now and then from the leftover excitement, Kankri tries his best to relax for Karkat 's sake.//

CG: * Karkat could feel the little trimners rippling through Kankri. It was amusing really. Knowing why they were even occuring. He believes this would be a good time ti interrogate the other. " Kankri. How are you feeling? You never explained wh-hy those guys were picking on you? " It was serious to ask. Maybe if he knew a bit more he'd be able to rid of the do.uche bags. *

(Awwww. Protective KK, how sweet <33)

(( * waits for decades to receive an reply * ))

TI: //Distracted by Karkat's question, Kankri sighs and shakes his head with a now sad look on his face. He just knows that the reason won't be good enough for his potential partner. 'I went to the lunch room everyday. Nothing was particularly good, or bad, either. It was all normal, really. And then, on one very unspecial day, this guy comes along and notices my sandwich.'//---
