Gam...zee?

[Rei is alright with this. She was never human to begin with. Never even had a real human shape to begin with. Which is why she's pretty glad that her wire frame at least looks like her.]

[Even though she knows that everyone else is sad over being reduced to wires and souls, she almost feels like giggling. It's actually pretty fun to try to tell everyone by their silhouettes alone.]

[hystericull]

[He was so bad with voices. The fact that all the humans looked pretty much the same when made of wire didn't help at all, either. As such, he had no idea who the fuck was calling his name, but he turned to the vaguely female frame in front of him, at a sudden loss for words because he wasn't mentally prepared to engage in conversation.]

...What!?

[Sorry, give him a chance to process this.]

[terreifying]

Just checking to see if you were okay.

[She points at the chip that can be seen through the film of his head.]

What's that?

[hystericull]

[Gamzee does halt, but he's a bit fidgety as he stands still. When Rei points out his modchip, it dawns on him that it is, in fact, visible to everyone here, now. Not that it really bothered him, but it was just an eerie sensation.]

Makes me motherfuckin' tick right.

[The bundle of wires making up Gamzee shifted uncomfortably.]

I don't like tickin' right.

[terreifying]

[She can remember him talking about not wanting to be sane before.]

So that's what the thing in your head looks like. You still don't like it?

[hystericull]

[There was a pause before he responded again.]

It's motherfuckin' complicated, and what's also - none of your fucking business.

[He grunted in discomfort, waving a hand dismissively.]

I ain't never was one for such quietness what it bring to me.

[nottheonly]

Then why did you ask for it to begin with?

[hystericull]

[Exasperated, he threw his arms out before him.]

THIS REALLY THE MOTHERFUCKIN' TIME FOR THIS!?

[Before long, however, the chip had sedated him once more, and he found it in him to answer.]

Thought I all didn't have no motherfuckin' choice on it.

[nottheonly]

[She shrugs.]

You're right. It's the wrong time. So what are you gonna do now?

[hystericull]

[He growled. It was a short, curt noise, and it left him staring at his wirey hands.]

A motherfucker never all know on what all it is he is got to fuckin' be at doin' til it all presents its fuckin' ass at him like the miracle it all was meant to motherfuckin' up and be.

[terreifying]

So you're gonna wait until Ruana bares her bum, and then kick her there?

[hystericull]

[Gamzee laughed most heartily at this, honking in delight at the image it projected, and in the twisted way his words were misinterpreted.]

Fuckin' all exactly what I'm motherfuckin' meaning to be doing, dog.

[terreifying]

[She gives him a thumbs up.]

Let's make her really howl.
