[The feed cuts in at the Heimdall Welcome Hall, and a troll that may be familiar to several individuals appears on the screen.]

WELP.

THIS SURE IS GREAT.

I LOVE BEING UPROOTED FROM ONE SHITTY SITUATION TO ANOTHER, MORE ASININE ONE. MOST DEFINITELY MY FAVORITE THING IN THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE. ASK ANYONE.

SO, WHAT? I GUESS I LIVE HERE NOW?? WHATEVER. I THINK I'M SUPPOSED TO BE SAYING HELLO TO EVERYBODY, BUT I REALLY DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO SAY.

[Karkat probably doesn't have time to actually say anything because there's suddenly a shout.] Karkat? Karkat! [The video feed is probably a blur of motion with lots of greys, blacks, and reds. There's a face that hasn't been around recently. Aradia has bounded over to Karkat and is basically invading all his personal space.]

When did you get here? Have you talked to Sollux or anyone else? A lot of our friends are here you know! You have to tell me what point of the timeline you're from.

[Aradia had lost her bracelet and is pretty much oblivious to what's been happening as of late.] I guess we got here at the same time! I mean I was here earlier but I lost my bracelet hehe.

ARADIA, STOP. I ONLY GOT LIKE HALF OF THAT--

HANG ON.

[The feed is cut.]

(( Grey is Karkat, Red is Aradia.))

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

OH YEAH. ARADIA REACHED GOD TIER.
I GUESS YOU KNOW THAT NOW THOUGH. HUH.
WAIT SO
YOU DRAW STUFF, AND IT JUST APPEARS?
THAT'S
SOMETHING.

D --> Is that what happened
D --> I had not yet been informed
D --> This means that the Maid is actually more powerful than me
D --> Does it not

D --> How much more powerful

[Warning will robinson. Equius is focusing on the wrong topic.]

I THINK YOU'RE KIND OF GETTING OFF TRACK HERE MAN.
THE IMPORTANT THING IS THAT SHE'S ALIVE, RIGHT?

D --> Absolutely
D --> It is e%traordinary to see her again
D --> I cannot e%press the emotions I feel upon knowing she lives
D --> It would be improper

YEAH, YOU SHOULD DEFINITELY KEEP THOSE TO YOURSELF.

D --> Precisely
D --> It is always g00d to have you around
D --> You understand proper conduct
D --> Such as how inappropriate it would be
D --> To speak of just how scandalous her being a god is to one of such pure bl00d
D --> Where would I be without you
D --> I might be openly speaking
D --> Such a scandal to be ordered
D --> And such gratitude for a lowbl00d's return to life
D --> I am supposed to have higher and purer thoughts
D --> Am I not

[He's still doing it, though.]

OKAY, EQUIUS?
THAT THING WE JUST TALKED ABOUT YOU NOT DOING?
YOU GOTTA ACTUALLY NOT DO IT.

D --> Ah
D --> How terribly inconsiderate of me
D --> I should be chastized
D --> And castigated with e%treme prejudice
D --> There are far more pivotal topics
D --> This is not the time

YEAH
LET'S STAY ON THOSE PIVOTAL TOPICS.
IS THERE ANYTHING YOU CAN TELL ME ABOUT THIS PLACE?

D --> I have only just arrived myself
D --> I am concerned that I have lost STRENGTH since I lost consciousness at the Highbl00d's hands
D --> I am dedicating my free time to prototyping t00ls and physical training
D --> It is a very strange place
D --> The sun is positively mild

YEAH. IT'S KIND OF WEIRD TO SEE A SUN AT ALL. A REAL ONE I MEAN.
SO, YOU'VE LOST YOUR INSANE SWEATY STRENGTH POWERS THEN?

[Wait what was that other part about losing consciousness? Oh hell.]

[Yep, someone had no memory of dream bubbles, and therefore did not know that they were dead. They just remembered being shot in the leg and choked with a bow garrote. He kind of knew he was dead, but he didn't really want to admit it.]

D --> Actually
D --> I could use a towel
D --> I was perspiring earlier
D --> I may draw several

YOU DO THAT.
PRETTY WEIRD TRADE-OFF THOUGH. I WONDER WHY THAT IS.

D --> If what the faceless peasant said is true
D --> I have this power from Freyr
D --> Who is dead
D --> I was chosen for the purity of my artistic gifts
D --> And the glories of my most pristine and perfect masterpiece
D --> And my appreciation of the most beautiful and gorgeous of artworks from ancient Alternian culture

[Yes. He was chosen for his fascination with muscle builder posters and his creating a creepy Aradia body masterpiece.]

WOW.
YEP.
THESE SURE ARE COMFORTING QUALIFICATIONS FOR GODS TO CHOOSE FOLLOWERS.
TOTALLY.

D --> Absolutely a testimony to the taste and artistic comprehension of this Freyr
D --> It is truly a shame that he is dead
D --> I would speak with him about the glories of ancient Alternian artwork for days

SOUNDS LIKE YOU TWO REALLY DO HAVE A LOT IN COMMON.

[In his mind.]

D --> Indeed
D --> I am honored to have so much in common with a god this brave
D --> He apparently killed himself to fight the enemy
D --> Quite impressive resolve
D --> Who are you tied to

HEIMDALL, WHATEVER THAT MEANS.
APPARENTLY I USED TO LIVE IN THIS PLACE CALLED HEL? NOT THAT I REMEMBER ANYTHING PAST ME HAS DONE.

D --> This conversation reminds me of something
D --> I believe it would be wise
D --> To maintain the rules of that Jade human
D --> No more memos

NO MORE MEMOS?
RULES?
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

D --> Your open discussions and announcements
D --> I think conversations with our past selves would prove fruitless here
D --> They tended to devolve into filthy and inappropriate topics anyway

OH YEAH. THAT.
DON'T WORRY.
I HAVEN'T TALKED TO MYSELF IN A WHILE.
ANYWAY WHAT WOULD BE THE POINT RIGHT NOW?

D --> In truth
D --> I am unsure there ever was a point
D --> Other than a self-fulfilling prophecy
D --> As the lowbl00d Sollu%% might babble about

WELL, Y'KNOW.
I GUESS IN THE END THEY WERE GOOD FOR IDIOTS TO VENT THEIR EMOTIONAL FRUSTRATIONS ON.
OF COURSE THAT'S NOT WHAT THEY WERE FOR. LIKE AT ALL.
BUT WHATEVER. THE POINT IS WE'RE NOT DOING MEMOS. I DON'T REALLY KNOW HOW WE COULD DO THEM ON THIS NETWORK ANYWAY.
