[ou] karkat vantas

(no subject)

Characters: Karkat and you guys
Setting: Halls, headed towards his room to dump off a bloody shirt; set immediately after this thread.
Format: Action brackets
Summary: Karkat is covered in blood! It's not his own, though. Bother him in the hall!
Warnings: Blood, Karkat.

[And here's our Knight now, just now picking himself back up off of the floor where he slipped and fell like a dumbass. Speed walking towards his room and hoping no one sees him like this: covered in red blood. A monster's red blood, but all the same, it's not a color he wants on himself. Specifically, there's a large splatter over the front of his sweater and some smeared on his face where he tried to wipe it off.

Next time, the damn newbies can defend themselves.]

[Welp.

Too bad Terezi is here to "see" him, huh? She realizes something is slightly off with the scent of his blood immediately, but the cherry red flooding her nose makes her panic, juuusst a bit.]

Karkat?

[Oh god of all the noses to pass by.]

Not now Terezi, I'm kind of in the middle of something!

[EXCUSE HIM! She frowns, looking pretty obviously concerned.]

What did you do, stupid?

What do you mean what did I do? I saved a perfectly innocent person today, without any fucking compensation except a bloodbath I didn't want.

Now I want out of this shirt before the smell of imp blood makes me vomit.

[Blink.

Oh. Imp blood. She grins.]

Jegus, no need to be so forward!

[Mixed in with a little of his own nosebleed BUT HE'S NOT TELLING HER THAT.

She can stop that grinning any time, also.]

Fuck you, you're not allowed to smell me change either. All shirtless-Karkat-smelling rights are hereby revoked.

[IS SHE WALKING WITH HIM? Because he's walking again now.]

[YES SHE IS, with her usual shark-like grin in place.]

Jegus, I just wanted to make sure my fearless leader was safe!

Uh-huh, tell it to his Honorable Tyranny.

[He appreciates her concern dearly, yes he does.]

His Honorable Tyranny wouldn't care, stupid.

[Still following yup yup yup.]

[They're on the dorm floor with his block on it already gosh he walks fast when he's being tailed by a blind girl playing puppy.]

You're right, we'd both hang for making such a big fucking deal out of it--

[Oh look, his door. Who needs to knock, he's just barging in.

Looks like everyone's gone, though.]

[She follows him inside, plopping down on one of the beds, and grins at him.]

Want me to cover my eyes?

[Woman he will fight you for his privacy when he needs it.]

Yes, please, my prudent lifestyle and your useless ogling eyes can never meet. By which I mean HA HA, very funny.

[He rummages through his trunk, growing frustrated when he finds pants and other garments but no other shirt.]

Oh my god please tell me I have a clean shirt somewhere.

[She's totally giggling.]

Oh, no! Whatever will you do?

[Aradia would have much preferred to have run into Karkat for the first time when he wasn't covered in blood very similar to his own but apparently fate had decided differently. She approaches, clearly concerned]

Karkat, what happened?

[Woah, is that his descendant covered in blood? He trots over, a look of concern on his face]

How bad is it?

_{[It's the second or third time today she's smelled blood and the smell is reminding her that yes, she is made to eat this and no, she hasn't had any in a long time. And she doesn't want to start today with this weird troll kid.]}

Dude, what happened to you?

_{[Just going to pretend that the smell isn't bothering her with a grin.]}

Be the dumbass wearing pants on his head I guess.

[I wasn't kidding when I talked about this.]

[As tempted as she is to allow this...]

You can wear one of my shirts!

[God, fuck the monsters in this tower for having blood like his. It's easy enough to explain away, but it's still a headache he doesn't want.]

Nothing much, you should've seen the other guy.

[He's trying to perfect the 'deadpan' expression now.]

Well I'm glad whoever the other guy is won't be a problem any more but are you okay? Do we need to get you to the infirmary?
