Characters: Sollux Captor and open
Setting: Starting in room 2-06, but you can assume he's wandering the halls anywhere, since he'll go out exploring.
Format: I'll follow your lead.
Summary: Sollux has just arrived (~~again~~) and he's confused and Unhappy about it.
Warnings: None yet.

Sollux didn't remember falling asleep, but he definitely remembered waking up. He fought the sleep paralysis for the full thirty seconds, and then shot up from the bed the moment his eyes opened, his teeth bared in a snarl.

He'd been dreaming...something. Something bad. He always woke up badly when he dreamed about his own death, but the specifics were fading like wisps of fog in the morning, and he couldn't be sure if it was a vision or not. The voices were sure loud, though. Fuck were they loud.

He was distracted from the question of the dream, though, as he looked around the unfamiliar room in confusion. "What the actual fuck?"

[Molly is walking down the hallway when she stops and visibly stares at him]

You have four horns! That's so cool!! Are you the bestest troll because of that?

[He pauses and stares back at her through his glasses] No, it maketh me a mutant.

But that's so cool! I'm a mutant too! [CAN'T YOU SEE HOW PROUD SHE IS?]

[Wow. What the hell] You are?

[she puts her hands on her hips] I'm pretty sure I know that I'm a mutant.

[He gives you a good. Long. Look. He doesn't have much experience with humans, but he knows generally what they look like]

You don't look like a mutant. What'th your mutation?

I have super strength and I'm invulnerable! Wanna see?

[If Sollux agrees, he'll be lifted and possibly carried down the hallway at top speed. She's gotta prove it to him!]

[How is being strong and invulnerable a mutation. He growls a little] Sure, show me your horrible fucking mutation.

[And then he yelps, as she grabs him. She gets a few feet before red and blue sparks erupt from his skin, breaking her hold and lifting him up into the air, so he hovers a few feet back from her]

Watch it!

Hey! Don't curse!

[she likes giving people ride, once she gave a pony a piggyback ride!]

Whoa! You can fly? I wish I could fly!

I can thay what I want.

[Well, at least she doesn't seem inclined to grab him again. He lowers himself to the floor warily]

I'm pthychic. How ith being thtrong a mutation?

[she blinks at him] I thought psychics just read minds and told fortunes! Can you tell me my fortune too? And I'm REALLY STRONG! Like, much stronger than everyone else is.

I thee the future thometimeth, but nothing controlled, and I can't read mindth. [He's still skeptical] I sthtill thay that'th not a mutation. Two ekthtra hornth ith a mutation. [He sticks out his two tongues momentarily] That'th a mutation. Thtrength ith a thkill.

Aww it would be cooler if you could read minds. Are you sure you can't? What am I thinking! And it is a mutation! I just woke up one day, well actually it was nighttime and lotsa people were in my room and my eyes started to glow pink and BAM I was super strong! I broke part of my room though.

Thorry. Just the mindth of the imminently detheathed. I hear almotht dead people, that'th all, and they mothtly only thcream. [He still has no sympathy for you, Molly. Sorry]

That must get lonely.

[Woah. He wasn't expecting that. Have a mutant troll blinking at you in confusion, Molly, and then blushing a rather sickly yellow colour]

Uh, yeah. It doeth.

But that's what friends are for! To keep you from getting lonely! Mine aren't here in this tower so I've been making bunches of new ones. Do you wanna be my friend too?

[then she notices the yellow blush]

Are you gonna puke?

[He's even more confused about this, and the blush isn't going away] I guethh tho? I mean, about being friendth. I'm not going to puke. [And from his expression, it's obvious he has no idea why you asked]

Yay! I have a lot of friends in the tower so if you get lonely you gotta come find me and maybe we can have a party or something! Those make people happy.

Your face is all yellow and the only time I see that is when someone is gonna puke but usually that's green and I know you can breathe because you're talking and not turning blue!

Oh yeah...that thoudth awethome. Thankth.

My blood ith yellow! I'm not thick or anything.

Oh! I forgot that trolls have different blood colors? Yours is yellow? What flavor is it? Dave told me that blood has flavors too.

....Well, according to tz it tathteth like muthtard.

Eww I don't like mustard, ketchup is better! [pause] But you're still cool!

Yeah, I'm sure my blood ith pretty dithguthting. Who'th Dave?

Uhh, Dave is Dave! He wears sunglasses and makes those comics and it kinda confusing.
