[The first text John sends will be arriving mid-morning.]

so it's been getting really cold outside.
well maybe not really cold.
but cold enough to notice!
which means winter and the holiday season should be coming around soon, right?

so asgard, my question to you is: what holidays do you celebrate around this time? or do you choose not to celebrate at all?

[The second follows a few moments later.]

oh, i guess i forgot to ask in my last text there. does anyone know where i could possibly obtain a job? i think i've sat on my rear end for far too long.

who is to say that i don't or do give a shit?
i mean it could go either way.

it's not like i did anything outside of being myself.

ii thiink that2 really all iit take2 wiith karkat.
everythiing pii22e2 hiim off, iit2 liike a complex or probably more liike hii2 defen2e mechanii2m, liike iif he get2 mad enough nobody wiill notiice that he actually giive2 a 2hiit about anythiing and he can pretend two be a bada22.
you miight al2o be exceptiionally iirriitatiing, but ii dont know.

[longwinded]

he's just defensive over everything i guess.
maybe he's a control freak.
i don't think i'm irritating, but i don't know how other people really view me so....

[Except he is actually pretty irritating.]

[biifurcatiion]

[He knows, this isn't even his first John.]

both are logiically po22iible and probably liikely, giiven the compo2iitiion of team2.
ii am pretty 2ure beiing eiither one, iirriitatiing, or two, a blatant a22hole, are probably requiirement2 for playiing the game or 2omethiing.
but yeah he ii2 a control freak.
he al2o ha2 two have a target for hii2 angry iimpul2e2 2o that he can actually functiion 2ometiime2 and keep hiim2elf from turniing on hiim2elf.
not that that2 liike 2ome kiind of biig 2ecret, he2 pretty 2pectacularly bad at keepiing anythiing hiidden.

[Might not even be his last.]

well you certainly have the asshole part down pretty well.
i mean that in the best way possible.
maybe being a shouting idiot is karkat's way of showing he actually gives two shits.
then again i'm already pretty uneducated on troll culture.

[He never did fully understand the whole freakout over cleaning supplies. Even after it's been explained to him....]

[Buckets is not a conversation that Sollux is willing to have, so it's a good thing John doesn't bring it up. Though he might be shameless enough to actually clarify.]

iit2 pretty culturally unacceptable two admiit that you actually liike 2omeone.
liike wow diid you not realiize we were a 2peciie2 of p2ychopathiic a22hole2? you hang around wiith vrii2ka, how diid that e2cape your notiice.
