Characters: Karkat Vantas (AU) and YOU
Setting: Descending from the Cathedral
Format: Starting in action, but I'll match.
Summary: Karkat is being brought down from his small bout of insanity today -- do you find him before that happens?
Warnings: Flirtatious little demonic troll. Mind control. If Karkat feels cornered at any point during the encounter, there is a good chance he will either control your character to get them away from him, or to put them to sleep.

[Controlling Minato had taken a lot out of Karkat. By the time the other Persona users had arrived to take him down, he was already starting to feel the stress from the encounter. But never before had he enjoyed such a rush of power, and he found himself almost drunk off of it. He had paused to take a breather a floor or two away from the cathedral, one hand pressed to cover his vision eightfold to rest it.

He couldn't begin to understand why he didn't do this sooner, what with all the powerful beings trapped in the Tower. Maybe he could get them to fight each other. That would be fun, and definitely hilarious.

But first, he needed to get back to his room and rest his head while it was still early and his roommates were out.]

[It had been a rough past month for all of them, and the days since their return hadn't been easy either. This was obvious.

David had tried his usual escapes--literature, music, writing, fencing--but none of it was working as well as it should. So he found himself wandering the halls more and more, for lack of anything else to do.

It was thus that he came across Karkat. He's...wary, as he is more and more often these days, but he doesn't play avoidance.

Advance or abscond?

[...yeah, that's definitely off.

David takes a few steps back, trying to play off the action as best as he can.

My presence in the open requires a special occasion now? My word, I must have been holed away for far longer than I had thought. In any case, what can I say? I simply saw it best to attempt to get whatever passes for fresh air in this damnable place.

AND I AM STILL WORSE

Is it now?

[aaand that sure is mildly unsettling.]

I do what I can, though I'd guess that we have two rather different ideas of what constitutes usefulness in this case.
