Characters: Karkat Vantas ( OU ) and any lovely people willing
Setting: Media room!
Format: Action spam
Summary: Best way to nurse anything is by sitting down in front of a movie, huddled in a blanket, right? Well of course that's right.
Warnings: Swearing should be standard by now, right?


[ curled up on a couch is one Karkat Vantas, blanket around him like a cocoon and stiffing every few minutes. he had started to feel a little tired and drippy around the nose area a bit ago. honestly, even though he had told Feferi the other day to stay in her room, he doesn't feel safe in his own. something about sharing that small of space with those humanoids just rubs him the wrong way. it's not like he's going to ask Gamzee if he can tuck into that recuperacoon of his either...

so there's really only one other option and he's taking it. taking the entire couch, that is. some romcom is playing on the screen. Karkat even has his collar pulled over his mouth, just to keep the air from being contaminated. one side of him sets a water filled bottle. the other has a box of tissues and a bag to toss them into.

honest to god he's just playing a movie to fall asleep to. he definitely needs it. ]

No, I seriously don't hear anything but the rumbling in my own chest and the sorry excuse of wind passing through your vocal chords that you deem to call a voice...

[ but he might have said that a little too loud. he's coughing now. ]

[ghostytrainer]

Maybe your ears are stopped up...

[That can happen when you're sick, right?]

Oh well. [Sniffle.] So 're you the Karkat from my universe or some kind of Altkat? Guessing you aren't the same one who's been with me in Johto for the past year or so.

[papshooshing]

If you're coming from a different reality, doesn't that make you the Alternate here?

[ excuse him while he takes a long drink from his water. anything to make the irritation in his throat go away. ]

I got here right after the whole Green Sun fiasco.

[ghostytrainer]

Well I don't know, I mean there's a chance we come from the same reality. At least originally. [Cough.] I have kind of done some universe hopping, you see. Played SBURB for a while, then got universe nabbed to this place called Johto, spent two years there, and now I am here.

But technically, wouldn't everybody be an alternate to somebody else from a different reality?

[Jeez, Karkat, be more considerate.]

[papshooshing]

No shit, John. It took you this long to figure it the mighty fuck out?
