❄ 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?

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?

And come on, who thinks crows are cute? We eat carrion and roadkill, fucking adorable.
no subject
I do; when the crow is also my friend then of course they are cute!
no subject
Even when I'm eating carrion and roadkill? [
Or... trying to peck out your eyes like a zombie?We're putting that behind us]no subject
Maaaaaybe. I would probably look away though because that might be a little gross.
no subject
Yeah, see, not adorable. You're fucking lucky I eat pizza instead.
no subject
Is pizza good for a bird's stomach?
no subject
Well, not any worse than it is for a human's stomach. Hasn't killed me yet.
no subject
Okay, but maybe you should think about switching to a healthier, bird oriented diet.
no subject
Like what? I'm not gonna eat birdseed, Jade, that stuff sucks.
no subject
Birds eat things other than birdseed, like worms!
no subject
Oh man, how could I forget worms, wow, thanks Jade, I am totally hungry now, the idea of sliding a wriggling invertebrate that came out of the dirt from eating shit and decomposing corpses is totally helping me get my hunger on, you don't even know, I was all "fuck nothing sounds tasty" but then along comes you all "hey dave, eat slimy wrigglers" and I was like "oh man how did I live without you i fucking love slimy wrigglers wriggling down my throat goddamn" holy shit this is like an epiphany.
no subject
Now you are just being silly! Even if worms are a little gross they would be very good for you and sometimes even people eat bugs.
no subject
Like, starving people in terrible places like Africa or Louisiana. I'll start eating worms when you start, okay?
no subject
no subject
Wait, fuck, you better not start eating worms.
no subject
no subject
Okay, obviously the only solution to this situation is to rope Egbert into doing it too.
