[[OOC:
no subject
[ she's going to just offer him her own drink - some sort of clear, sparkly liquid - as she peers into his and tries to give it a sniff. because she has no boundaries, i guess. ]
no subject
Not yet. Wandering unchaperoned into a bunch of rooms that look like a bird cage when I'm a bird just kind of seems like asking for it. What if they don't let me back out.
[Totally serious concerns over here.]
no subject
[ she takes a sip of the drink, making a face that's almost offended, before hooking her arm in his - whether he wants her to or not - and leading him in a purposeful direction. ]
Surprised you're not cutting a rug.
no subject
[He continues to be melodramatic for comedic effect, before he decides to risk tasting Jade's drink. Is it Sprite? It looks like Sprite.]
I could probably make a shitty cannibalism joke about a sprite drinking a Sprite right now. It's way more topical than any rugs I could cut, even if I'm pretty sure no Sprite ever tasted like that. Jesus.
no subject
[ it's probably a weird, alien knockoff version of 7-up if anything, tbh. jade seems to be leading him toward the game room. ]
Some of the parties in Asgard were kind of like this - the big ones that the gods used to throw. [ yeah, jade. davesprite lived there, too. ] You think the city's okay without us?
no subject
[Or does it. In any case, he lets her keep tugging him along, too distracted by their drinks and the prospect of (more) food to resist. And the fact the game room has to be vastly superior to the dance floor.]
Anyway, let's be real, Asgard had better food. That's an automatic point in favor of its survivability, with or without us.
no subject
[ tbh jade would probably be dancing at some point, too, if she knew how to do more than something that was kind of like a rusty, clanky version of the robot. she mostly just plans on challenging davesprite to pinball now.
man how hard would it be to shrink a pinball machine down and bring it back onto the ship... ]
I don't really think that's actually relevant, though, Davesprite.
no subject
[He freaked himself out with those pickles.]
A couple of them looked ready to walk off my plate any second.
no subject
There were pickles?
no subject
[He says it so very solemnly.]
There were so many fucking pickles. There were enough pickles that you could fill your whole dress with them and have enough left over for a dance partner.
no subject
To feed a dance partner or to make one?
no subject
Both, probably. I bet someone brought in a pickle big enough to dance with; I already saw one like this fucking long.
[Measuring stick time with his fingers, troublesome as it is while holding a drink.
There's a dick joke in here somewhere.]
It's out there on the dance floor somewhere, in a suit and mask.
no subject
[ why would someone bring a pickle in, wtf, that doesn't make any sense. and anyway she is pretty sure she would smell the brine, thank you very much!
when she stops walking, she has landed him directly in front of a pinball machine, and she releases his arm from hers before looking expectantly at him. ]
no subject
[But ok. Pinball. He looks from the machine to Jade and back to the machine again. And then he takes a slurp of Jade's drink, because getting his own back from her is one step too many right now.]
So. You're gonna go first, right. [While he continues to feel acutely out of place, tyvm.]
no subject
[ her surprise here isn't 100% her being an asshole, ok. she moves to stand to the side of the pinball machine, holding her hand out for the drink. ]
I thought crows ate roadkill. And no way! I need you to show me how to play. I've never played one these before. [ as if it as at all complicated. ]
no subject
See, the roadkill is exactly the fuckin' problem.
[He gestures a little, grossed out by his own inclinations towards carrion.]
I don't want to eat roadkill. Or maggots. I want to have a diet that's roadkill and maggot free. But apparently that's too much to ask on this swamp-assed moon, where you can find maggots the size of a soda can. It would be like me asking if you ever get the munchies like dogs do and delivering a steaming pile of literal shit to your door.
no subject
[ the phrase 'maggots the size of a soda can' by itself seems to gross her out a little bit, but when davesprite makes it to 'steaming pile of literal shit' her nose crinkles unhappily. ]
People actually eat maggots. On purpose. I think it'd be fairer to say this is closer to snausages. [ the look she gives him is pointed. ]
no subject
[But he returns her pointed look with one that is as pointed as sunglasses can get. Which is not very.]
But see. Totally equivalent.
no subject
[ jade just sighs and tries to gently nudge him to the side, leaning in to examine the spring-loaded plunger meant to launch the silver ball in the machine. ]
The trolls existed first, right? I always kind of thought of our similarities in culture as funny kind of parallels, but I guess we're just the copy-cats, huh.
no subject
[His voice is so dry. The Sahara is damper than this. Which pretty much sums up his feelings on trolls and any discussion relating to them; his fucks have evaporated into the ether.
ANYWAY, he amicably moves out of the way.]
Pull the lever. [It's free, so who cares if it takes Jade a while to get the hang of it.]
no subject
[ 'who cares,' he says now, except jade is going to as innocently and convincingly terrible as she can - which isn't that hard, because she does kind of suck, but the controls aren't exactly confusing. she's just trying to get a rise out of him. ]
no subject
[It's more curt than he intends, but Karkat can keep being Dave's friend and Dave's friend only as far as Davesprite's concerned. It was bad enough that he had to talk to Terezi (god does he hate Terezi).
He's only half paying attention to how much Jade sucks. Not enough for it to legitimately bother him, but enough for him to helpfully comment:]
You really suck at pinball.
