❄ sixth reminder

[ morning ; 1338 benny road ]

[ Jade can't help but feel something is wrong this morning when she wakes up. She feels like she's missed something, almost like she's been asleep for a long time. She stumbles out of bed, feeling a little fuzzy, noticing the changes to her room. The window's been repaired, there's a backpack that she didn't have before with half finished homework on the desk. She doesn't really start to feel concerned until she looks at the calendar on her wall, which has been flipped over to October.

That can't be right.

She grabs it from the wall, bursts out into the hallway still in her nightgown and clutching it to her chest. ]


Karkat? Gamzee?

[ phone ]

Hi Mayfield! Long time no talk! Or maybe we did talk, but it wasn't me me, it was creepy drone me. I'm not really sure what happened, I can't remember anything since, hmmm, a couple weeks ago, I think, after the zombies. I don't remember going home, or being here, nothing! It's kind of scary, but I'm glad that I was a normal creepy drone and not a murderous creepy drone. I really hope that doesn't happen to me again. Have you ever had something like that happen to you? Not even just droning but, I don't know, something reeeeally creepy where you almost... don't exist. It's kind of scary.

Oh, and apparently I'm a girl scout now, hehe.

[ afternoon ; your front door ]

[ There is some pretty persistent knocking at your front door right now. If and when you get around to answering it, you will find Jade on your doorstep, wagon stacked high with boxes of cookies behind her. She is looking particularly adorable right now, all dressed up in a girl scout's uniform. ]

Hi!! Do you like cookies?

[ phone; fail filter to eridan ]

Eridan? Hi, um... how are you?

There's more to it than that. This isn't just some whim I had when I woke up one night to try to corral a bunch of demented hoofbeasts. This is literally the entire reason I exist, so yes, I should be in control of everything that happens, but I am just not good enough.

I hope you don't mind me asking, Miss Jade, but why were you droned in the first place?
worstvikingever: (welp)

Crap.

[Serious face really serious and trying not to laugh really because this whole conversation is ridiculous]

I'm sorry I was ever evil and promise never to do it again.

[Gamzee.

And.

Karkat.

Ahaha- ahahaha.

You might want to run this through them first.

I really like it, as well! You look very nice in it! [[nia's whole shtick is incredible kindness. expect more, jade, because it'll be comin' your way!]]

By chance... Is there anywhere I could buy one for myself, here?

[He takes the change.]

Alright.

[He opens the box and opens the bag inside of the box to take out a cookie and take a bite into it.]

I gueth they're not that bad but they're not thomething I would eat all the time. I'm thure John would like them though.

They might be, but I would feel a lot more comfortable around your house if I know they are both in agreement.

[And not armed. Look, she made peace with Karkat, but she can't just face Gamzee right now, can she?]

That...does seem to severe. Well, I'm glad that you're back; it must not be very pleasant to be a drone.

[identity profile] crusthatecean.livejournal.com 2011-10-03 02:09 am (UTC)(link)
You have no idea what you're talking about. If I told you everything you'd agree with me.
worstvikingever: (that's pretty cool!)

[personal profile] worstvikingever 2011-10-03 02:20 am (UTC)(link)
[Hiccup bursts out laughing and throws his hands up in the air.]

Oh no! I can never outwit you!

...can I have another cookie.

[identity profile] spiraldoll.livejournal.com 2011-10-03 02:25 am (UTC)(link)
... Me?

I could be a girl scout? You think I could? [[she looks a little surprised. but it is a happy surprised!]]

[identity profile] crusthatecean.livejournal.com 2011-10-03 02:29 am (UTC)(link)
[He's quiet and looks conflicted briefly.]

I can't.

I've never told anyone. And you know, I can see that maybe you won't think any less of me, humans are fucking strange, but I can't stand to think that you would.
