Honestly? Used to it. It's harder without sometimes.

[sharplydressed]

What, like you've become part bat or something?

[Except for the part where bats can barely see in any lighting but An Attempt Was Made.]

[parodeity]

Like...for twenty-one plus years in my other life I took them off basically never? From birth on, literally. [ SHOCKINGLY...this doesn't help your eyes adjust to strong light ] ...I literally do not even know.

[sharplydressed]

...Okay, pretty weird. Still not the weirdest, but that's definitely up there. Why's it always you with the weird stuff?

[IT'S ALWAYS DAVE. He's so concerned about Dave all the time, honestly.]

[parodeity]

I don't know, I feel my previous universe was gunning to win stupid awards? Like, awards for bein' stupid, not awards that are stupid, although I suppose both actually apply.

[sharplydressed]

Yeah, it definitely sounds like it's making a super solid bid for gold. Like, out of anyone, I'd believe you first if you told me the weirdest thing I've ever heard of.

[What a great... honor.....]

[parodeity]

My boyfriend can probably give me a run for my money, but he understands the mechanics way less.

[sharplydressed]

Eh, really? Does he come from an equally weird place or something?

[LITTLE DOES HE KNOW all of the weirdest places are still Homestuck.]

[parodeity]

Same place. You know when I told you about the AJ thing...?

[ the STUPID PRANK john pulled in a past life ]

[sharplydressed]

Oh my god, yeah I do. Is this going where I think it is?

[Because he's ALREADY SNICKERING what a great couple.]

[parodeity]

He's my roommate, and yeah. [ can kashuu really talk

some people's boyfriends punch them in their sleep, some people's boyfriends RUIN A PERFECTLY GOOD THING OF AJ ]

[sharplydressed]

[At least a broken nose is fixable, okay. Ruined AJ is just ruined for life.]

Congrats! Is this a congrats thing? Like, is it new or is it old or is it old-new?

[Questions one can only ask in Recolle.]

[parodeity]

New. I mean...I won't say I didn't have too-intense friendship feelings back then, but it was never like that. And it's new since December.

[ when will dave use john's actual fucking name when he talks about his boyfriend ]

I'm pretty sure you'd like him?

[sharplydressed]

[Kashuu does the exact opposite thing where he talks about Yasusada by name but never mentions that they're dating, so together they'd make one whole normal couple. Good work, team!]

Wow, that is new. Double congrats, then! You'll have to tell me all about him and show me all the embarrassing pictures you can before I meet him, okay?

[Why must he be a punk.]

[parodeity]

[ ONE WHOLE, FUNCTIONAL COUPLE. ]

I would, but he's like, disgustingly photogenic? [ HERE, JUST LET HIM...scroll on his phone he has like an absurd amount of pictures of john saved because he has seriously problems. have some icons of a nerd with an overbite and really blue eyes. ]

Oh, but I also do have this. [ THIS IS MORE EMBARRASSING ]

[sharplydressed]

[Instead they just get to be NERDS with their NERDASS BOYFRIENDS.

That said, Kashuu has met John before and that's probably going to be immediately apparent when he leans over to get a look at this disgustingly photogenic dude.]

Oh! It's John! ...What's even happening in that last picture?

[parodeity]

Genuinely couldn't say. Thirteen-year-old John was a whimsical fuck. [ he hasn't gotten...less so, but dave can usually figure out what he's doing kind of. ] Apparently battling imps with shaving cream while riding a pogo thing, but like. Why, Egbert? We just don't know.

[ how can you feel so much exasperation and fondness for one person. why doesn't once cancel out the other. ]

I didn't know you'd talked, though - he's chatty, so I'm not that surprised, but.

[sharplydressed]

Sounds like the two of you are a perfect match, honestly.

[This is both a compliment and a friendly diss bundled into one neat package... But really, he knows that tone of mixed fondness and exasperation, so He Knows.]

Anyway, yeah! I bumped into him back when things were nuts and he probably thought I was a weirdo for running around with a sword and all. He seems like a pretty nice guy. Good sense of humor, too.

[parodeity]

[ an embarrassed smile but yeah. ]

I think he's used to weirdos with swords. Or most people should be, with the amoun tof us there are?

[sharplydressed]

By now? For sure. It'd almost be more weird for someone to be here for months and still think someone walking around with a sword is weird, y'know?

[He doesn't even get weird looks when he walks into bars with his bokuto bag anymore.]

[parodeity]

Why don't we have a club with like, eating out together nights or something. I would join that club? We could all trade tips and jokes and like, look cool together.

[sharplydressed]

We could totally put something like that together. It'd actually be worth going to now that we could offer snacks that don't taste like packing pellet air, too.

[parodeity]

I'll vote for you for president?

[sharplydressed]

Thanks! I'll make sure everyone gets the good snacks and pick out the spots with the best lighting and wind so we can look photo-ready at all times.

[parodeity]

Honestly it does sound fun. I wish we all did more like...fun shit as a group? Like network users in general.
