WHO: karkat and you!
WHERE: various locations, two prompts are at the high school though.
WHEN: forward dated to monday (4/10)
WHAT: guess who has two thumbs and just regained his troll horns? THIS GUY.
WARNINGS: none at the moment except for explicit language from karkat!
a; morning at recollé high
[ if you share a first period 12th grade english class with karkat, you will notice that at one point he gets up to go to the bathroom, leaving his backpack at his desk. you will also, eventually, notice that he just never comes back. it's almost like he just suddenly decided to skip altogether, which is a little weird considering all of his stuff is still at the classroom? he misses the rest of the class. if you have his phone number maybe you text him to see what's up?
likewise, if you enter one of the boys bathroom, you might spot karkat fussing over himself in front of the mirror. when he sees you come in, he will immediately stop what he's doing to rush into one of the bathroom stalls. you might catch what looks like two, small orange shapes on his head?? weird. anyway, karkat has made this bathroom stall his home and he is just camping out in here for whatever reason. ]
b; afternoon at recollé high
[ or it's his home until security kicks him out of the bathroom.
so now you might run into karkat frantically speed walking through the halls. he seems to have acquired a hat, which is fine, except for whenever a teacher makes him take it off in which case karkat goes back to covering his the top of his head with his hands.
whether you spot him while he's wearing the stylish hat or while he is trying to cover his new nubs on his head, he is not going to look very happy. ]
The "what the hell are you looking at?" line is really goddamn cliche, but I swear to god I will unironically use it if you don't stop staring.
c; late afternoon, all around the city
[ while karkat would love to just run home the second school ends, he unfortunately has shit to do today. you might spot him returning books to the library, or maybe at the freshens, buying pet food for his army of cats. maybe you run into him in the streets! no matter where you see him, though, he is going to be nervously tugging down his very fashionable hat and glaring at anyone who looks at him for longer than two seconds.
at one point you can even spot him inside the retrospec building! if you're on the outside, it'll just look like he's talking to himself. if you pop inside, you will discover that he is, in fact, talking to himself! well. he's yelling. at the nonexistent staff. ]
-- and hey, maybe next time you can turn my fucking dick into candy corn too, so that way when you're choking on it it'll be more pleasant, you shady, poor excuse of--
[ maybe you should just shut the door and walk away tbh. ]
d; evening, grub mart
[ finally, late at night, you can find karkat at his job at grub mart, a convenience store in tisse. unfortunately, due to dress code, karkat is not allowed to wear his hat, so his horns are just out there. he keeps trying to hide them like he had been earlier, but at this point he more or less has completely given up on life and is ready for death.
seriously just end him. ]

[ weird. very weird?? karkat wants to remember a trip to the beach. ]
no subject
[He can't say he's surprised, considering what he's heard from some other people and their regains, but it sure does suck still. Bless the few who actually managed to escape without becoming anime.]
no subject
[ their lives stopped being normal on founder's day. ]
no subject
Maybe one day they'll try to trip you up by giving you something totally normal. Like, you'll have dealt with so many weird things by then that something normal will be the new weird.
no subject
[ he quickly looks around, as if a memory is going to suddenly burst through the wall or something because that's definitely how it works. ]
no subject
[He's cursed it now. Somewhere in the city, someone's probably going to remember their best friend dying tragically on the day they went hat-shopping together.]
no subject
[ i honestly hope with all of my heart that someone regains a memory like that. i will app an oc and make that their tragic backstory. ]
no subject
[or the poor oc that's apped in with the world's most specific tragic backstory.]
no subject
[ dibs definitely does not work that way at all. ]
So if anyone is most likely to get it now, it's going to be you because you didn't call dibs.
no subject
Wow, too cruel! I thought we had something here and now you're just throwing me under the dibs bus...
[He's so hurt, so hurt!! Or he's just a giant annoying ham... Hint, it's option B.]
no subject
[ dibs destroys friendships. ]
no subject
[HE GUESSES. If he actually has any nightmarish hat-based flashbacks, he's coming after Karkat first, though.]
no subject
[ the nice thing is that karkat did just imply he definitely plans on hanging out with kashuu a lot in the future?? ]
no subject
You're assuming I'm waaay more generous with giving out points for consideration than I actually am.
[No, he actually is pretty generous with giving out points for consideration... Even if it's over dibwars.]
no subject
Well am I wrong or am I right though?
no subject
In the interest of maintaining at least a tiny air of mystery, I'll have to say no comment.
[As if he had even the tiniest air of mystery to preserve in the first place.]
no subject
[ karkat isn't even going to play along there because that is too much of a blatant lie even for him. ]
no subject
[CRUSHING HIS DREAMS!! His nonexistent dreams that he held so dear...]
no subject
[ with that, he's exiting the dressing room, one of the hats covering his horns. ]
no subject
[THUMBS UP, as Kashuu simultaneously compliments Karkat and pats his own back for having such clearly great taste in hats.]
no subject
I should go pay for this.
no subject
[How generous...]
no subject
[ HE SOUNDS VERY UNCERTAIN BECAUSE TECHNICALLY THAT'S AN INSULT??? ]
no subject
[Kashuu's great ability to be both insulting and helpful in the same breath strikes again...
BUT AWAY HE'LL GO to buy hats for Karkat so Karkat won't have to go back to the dark hat age again, good work team, mission success.]
