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? ]

[windeity]

[Somehow he takes the Mayor as less of a threat than the lobster.] What other stuff did you guys do together besides Cantown?

[parodeity]

[ ...???? john? ] Hopscotch and whatever? Sometimes I just talked and he would listen. Or movie night with Karkat.

[windeity]

Sounds fun. [And it does, actually.] We never played hopscotch or anything on the ship but we had other games and stuff. Otherwise we watched movies, too.

[parodeity]

Probably better movies than we watched. That dude refuses to watch anything but romcoms, pretty much.

[windeity]

Not really. We watched Con Air. And we played MMOs a lot but most of the players weren't that smart.

[parodeity]

...The denizens?

[windeity]

The consorts and chess people. And Davesprite, actually.

[parodeity]

Miss 'em?

[windeity]

No. [Almost an immediate answer.] It was fine and stuff but it wasn't the same. So no, I do not mind being off the ship now.

[parodeity]

Aw, John, it's almost like you care. [ dave sends the laptop into his sylladex and stretches. ]

[windeity]

Man, shut up. [He grins a little though.]

...we should go do something.

[parodeity]

Such as...? This isn't really a happening social scene, Egbert.

[windeity]

I hadn't thought that far ahead, really. But just going outside is nice sometimes? [Says John, who definitely spent more time indoors watching movies and screwing around online than he ever has outside.]

[parodeity]

Can I call doubt on that?? [ says dave, who like. SAME? ]

[windeity]

Have you even been outside lately?

[parodeity]

Why would I want to be??? But yeah sometimes.

[windeity]

I don't know. I like looking around to see if anything is regaining its color at all.

[parodeity]

Well...so, you want to go on a walk?

[windeity]

Kind of. Wanna come with me? [Like the implication is it'd be nice if Dave did so, but.]

[parodeity]

Okay. But you owe me. [ for going out and getting fresh air??? ]

[windeity]

Name your price. [He's up and waiting for Dave though. Apparently he meant right now.]
