> BLUEKAT: 8E THE CRIPPLE

[romcomedian.livejournal.com]

Characters: Karkat Vantas (AU) and YOU.
Setting: Infirmary
Format: I'm gonna go brackets, because I'm lazy.
Summary: Karkat's still healing from Vriska's attack, and now he's feeling even more paranoid than usual.
Warnings: Karkat's paranoia is also pretty crippling, give him a minute to calm down

[Being in the infirmary for a week has really done a number on Karkat's psyche. Truthfully, sitting still for this long is really starting to get old, but considering the hospital staff won't talk to him, he's unbelievably afraid of getting up and walking around. So he simply stays, staring like a zombie at the ceiling, pupils slightly shrunken into their sockets.

He has to get out of here. What if Vriska snaps again? Or worse, what if Terezi snaps? WHAT IF THE WHOLE TOWER WANTS HIM DEAD, WHY THE FUCK IS HE STILL HERE.......

Pull it together, Karkat, you're being a nooksucking idiot. Keep calm and lay still.]

It is still better than the Veil!

[Barely.]

Are you feeling any better?

[romcomedian.livejournal.com]

Kind of, I guess. Not a whole lot, but its an improvement.

[She grins, ignoring the barely there shuffling noises she hears in the corner.]

It's because my visits are making you heal faster!

[romcomedian.livejournal.com]

Yes, obviously. Why didn't I see it before?

[foretolds.livejournal.com]

Because you are dumb and stubborn and won't admit how amazing I am.

[romcomedian.livejournal.com]

Wow, sure are flattering yourself.

[foretolds.livejournal.com]

[She giggles.]

You do it all the time!

[romcomedian.livejournal.com]

Except I am amazing. The most amazing.

[foretolds.livejournal.com]

Maaaaybe.

[romcomedian.livejournal.com]

No, definitely. What the fuck do you mean 'maybe'?

[foretolds.livejournal.com]

[She smirks, poking at his nose. HEAL FASTER SO SHE CAN MESS WITH YOU PROPERLY.]

Maybe I need more convincing!

[romcomedian.livejournal.com]

[Snapping his teeth at her finger.]

Yeah right. Nice try.

[foretolds.livejournal.com]

[She laughs, yanking her fingers away.]

It's true! What have you done that's so amazing?

[romcomedian.livejournal.com]

[Making a face -- it gives him a snaggletooth appearance.]

You mean aside from existing? Terezi please, let's not even start.

[foretolds.livejournal.com]

[Too bad she can't see it! She's leaning forward like a creeper.]

No, we are starting! Why are you so special?

[romcomedian.livejournal.com]

[Terezi stop, he's already laying down, he can't lean away!!!]

Wow, way to have no faith in me.

[foretolds.livejournal.com]

[Nope. Now she's just laughing at him.]

[romcomedian.livejournal.com]

[He can't shove her either, this sucks. DEADEYING HER SO HARD.]

[foretolds.livejournal.com]

Don't be a grump!

[She flops down on her stomach beside him.]

I have lots of faith in you.

[romcomedian.livejournal.com]

I'll get right the fuck on that.

[He lets his head flop sideways against the pillow so he's looking directly at her, eyelids still half drawn in an unimpressed fashion.]

[foretolds.livejournal.com]

[She just sticks her tongue out at him.]

You are no fun!

[romcomedian.livejournal.com]

Considering I'm still stuck here, no, I'd agree.

[foretolds.livejournal.com]

[This time, she pokes at his cheek.]

When are they going to let you leave?

[romcomedian.livejournal.com]

Don't know. I guess once my ribs heal a little better?

[Closing the eye nearest her finger. Not going to mention he's kind of nervous about trying to stand.]

[foretolds.livejournal.com]

Lame.

[She rolls over on her side to face him.]

You must get so bored.
