Since I discovered we had access to ms paint?

[windeity]

[So. Weeks.]

Cool. [Hrm.] Too bad the internet doesn't exist anymore. You could probably gain a new following here somehow.

[parodeity]

Oh, Okuyasu said he'd be my number one fan.

[windeity]

Of course he did. Are you the one who taught him the S thing?

[parodeity]

Nah, he taught himself that as far as I know?

[windeity]

Somehow that makes it even worse. [Click-scroll.] Have you shown anyone else?

[parodeity]

No. I don't usually like people handling my shit. For one thing, the one time I let someone touch that they posted a dumb comment in my name?

[windeity]

Wait what? When?

[parodeity]

Eh, day one or so. He used punctuation and a smiley face.

[windeity]

Neither of which I have seen you use in the course of our friendship. It's like they didn't even try.

[parodeity]

He didn't know me then.

[windeity]

Does he now?

[parodeity]

Not half as well as he thinks he does, nah.

[windeity]

Who was this anyway?

[parodeity]

Ryoji, first time I met him.

[windeity]

Oh. That's different, Ryoji's like one of the most cheerful and well-meaning people I've met. I am suddenly no longer surprised.

[parodeity]

Yeah, well. You done looking? [ at the comics he means ]

[windeity]

Oh, yeah, sorry. [He hands the laptop over but he doesn't move otherwise.] I've read all of them, so it made sense to catch up.

[parodeity]

False. You totally missed out on a few things while I was on the meteor?

[ he just settles the laptop back on his chest. ]

[windeity]

You should tell me about those then. I think I missed out on a lot while you guys were on the meteor.

[parodeity]

You honestly missed a ton of dumb bullshit. [ like karkat trying to schedule? a dating system? ] But yeah, I can try to catch you up. Since my own electronics with anything on 'em are officially dead as a bunch of disappointing doornails.

[windeity]

Tell me about it? [He suddenly perches on the top of the armchair like a shitty overgrown vulture but he's not exactly sitting. He's floating, mostly, and he's facing Dave with a look of sheer excitement.]

Tell me more about the meteor and I can tell you about the ship. We didn't get to catch up a lot when you guys crashlanded that first time. [After John aggressively ironed his pants, before John fucked around with time enough everyone got confused.]

[parodeity]

I mean... [ there were some hilarious hijinks inbetween romance shit and rose and terezi getting super fucking drunk on alcohol and soda respectively. ]

I spent most of my time with my best bro, the Mayor? And some with Vantas towards the end there.

[windeity]

[He asks, and his brain immediately flickers to the fact that those two are dead people now, too. But he pushes the thought away.]

Right. Cantown. Is the Mayor a better bro than the lobster? [Your best bros are quality, Dave.] I kind of miss Karkat. It has been too long since we actually talked.

[parodeity]

The Mayor is a better bro than anyone in any universe ever. [ LET HIM TELL YOU about his questionable love for the mayor like holy shit dave calm the fuck down what were those saving the mayor from lava panels? ]
