video ☀ backdated to the 18th

What the fuck!

[ This alien-looking chick with the freaky white eyes looks, somehow, very harassed and deeply offended at once. ]

Talk about rude. What the fuck was up with those guys? And why the hell am I here?? I am still not entirely clear on that part. That video was a joke. Was that supposed to be educational? Because it was worse than completely useless, if you ask me. Bluh!

[ She shifts the communicator in her hand, jarring the feed and making it tilt slant-wise, somewhat nauseatingly. ]

And what is up with this crappy replacement cutlass? I mean, at least I still have that, unlike the rest of my powers! Holy shit, pretty much everything about this is awful and terrible and bizarre. What kind of power in paradox space could possibly bring me to a place like this?

[ Something seems to finally occur to her, and she stops moving -- and stops jabbering -- and peers suspiciously at her communicator. ]

I'm talking to someone. Who's out there, and what's really going on?

[ whhhh.

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

ttttttttttt. ]

Uh.

[ what. ]

Tavros? You're here too? What the hell! What is going on here.

[ not sure how he feels about this.

That's actually a lie. He doesn't really care, they made up. But Vriska? Here? That's bad news. ]

Hi, Vriska. Uh... Apparently, we have been drafted, from being dead, and are now in an army.

What! Bullshit. We're busting out of this joint if I have anything to say about it! Where the hell are you. [ Recognize that tone, Tavros? That is her commanding "Tavros you're about to do whatever the fuck I say" tone. Hop to it. ]

[ SI

GH.

he doesn't think he has a choice. he really doubts he has a choice. ] I think that, the better question would be, where are you?

I just got out of the town with all the angry humans in it. Where am I supposed to be going?

The other one. It's called, Orsun, and it's where we are. We, as in, uh... The John human, Dave, Davesprite, Dave's descendant slash, ancestor, myself, and Kanaya.

John's here? [ She seems to brighten somewhat at that. ] Too many Striders for my tastes, though. Hey, come get me! What are you waiting for??

[ kanaya ends up staring at the video for a while without a word. this is...certainly not what she was ever expecting. she ends up broadcasting empty air by accident as she tries to think of something to say, before the content of the message really sinks in beyond its the identity of its source. ]

[ that just gets Vriska to tap on the device irritatedly. who the hell is broadcasting empty air and wasting her time. ]

Uh, hello? Aaaaaaaanybody there?

You... [ how does she even... is vriska whining about all of this? everything they've had to deal with and she chooses this to whine about?

finally, kanaya switches the video on, lips drawn tight but her eyes still wide with uncertainty. if there's one thing she can manage in this situation, she will tolerate no whining. ]

Get used to it.

[ Well.

That shuts Vriska the fuck up real fast. She pauses in her tracks, ceasing all her fussing and fidgeting and bitching and really just everything that isn't openly staring, her eyebrows shooting up. ]

... Kanaya???

[ Of course it's Kanaya. What a stupid question. After a second and a blink or three, she starts to grin. ]

Fussyfangs! Holy shit, it really is you, isn't it? I haven't seen you in forever. Basically eternity! Even in a bizarro shithole like this it is pretty nice to see you. Wait, where are you??

We found shelter after being sent to the town of nonconformity to a narrow, human physical ideal. The whole thing is stupid.

So, uh... [ how's death been treating you? no fuck that. it's been a while? you've been dead and that wasn't so great? maybe there isn't a way to address the passage of time that isn't terrible. maybe she shouldn't try. ] ...You look well. All things considered.

Is that what their problem was? I was wondering why a bunch of strange humans seemed to be really pissed at me for some reason.

[ Lifts her eyebrows. And then breaks out in a cackle. ] Look well? Please. I was kicking ass right up until I got here! You'd be surprised how useful it can be to be dead. I was getting shit done! But no. Now I'm stuck on some backwater alt Earth doing basically nothing I guess?? Uuuuuuugh, I'm still so irritated about that.

Yes, yes, I'm sure you were having a marvelous time. I heard a small story about becoming an abomination somewhere along the way, but I'm sure neither of us want to really examine that one too closely.

As I said before, you would do best to get used to it. Returning seems to be well beyond our current means without learning more about how we were brought here, and our supplies are limited enough to make simple survival quite an undertaking on its own. Most of our efforts have been put in that direction.

[ ah. more dead trolls in the hood. he gives the feed a long look. ]

Welcome to the party.

[ the fuck.

she remembers that guy. ]

... Dave??

[ a single solitary eyebrow waggle. ]

Sup?

Yours was not a face I ever thought I'd see again! Honestly, I'm surprised I even remember your name. [ Her expression shifts into something vaguely speculative, but largely just calculating. ] You know what a stupid question that is, right?

No way. "Sup" is never a stupid question no matter how obvious the haps are. In fact, it doesn't even have to mean "what's up" anymore, not in this day and age. "Sup" is a stand-in for pretty much any greeting, like "hey," and "how are you," and "what it do."

So the ball's still in your court on that one.

A cutless is like a fencing sword or somethin' innit? Better'n what I got.
