Who: Karkat & Sollux
Where: Chez Trailblazers
When: Shortly after this
What: Various Issues
Warnings: Gross rude troll kids. Gross rude SAD troll kids

Karkat's been kind of quiet lately. He'd been holding off on telling any of the other Trailblazers about the guy who broke into their dorms just due to a bad feeling about all of it, but after finding out what happened to Starbreaker he's decided it might be best not to get them involved in it at all. He's told CONDOR, and security on the base has been increased, but apart from that he hasn't told anybody besides the Disciple, and Sollux, and Feferi. Alternian business, he figures.

He has to admit, he'd feel a bit less concerned about all of this if Feferi was still here. Partially because he's not sure how Sollux is going to deal with her being gone and the idea of the maybe-the-Sufferer on top of everything else, but also because he's fairly sure he could trust her to be able to fight this guy.

Gloomily, Karkat makes his way to Sollux's block, to knock on the door. He really hopes he's actually there. He tells himself it's because he's worried about Sollux but mostly he just doesn't want to be on his own right now, or to have to pretend that everything's okay.

"Yeah, I've got a working knowledge, basically. I met this chick that showed me a lot of things about human computers. The interesting part is going to be trying to integrate the technologies." He pauses for a moment. Given the shit Karkat just said, this feels like an awkward detour to take.

"You told people about that guy, right?"
nitrodamus: (okay yes)

[personal profile] nitrodamus 2014-04-13 04:47 am (UTC)(link)
He blinks, and then raises an eyebrow, obviously pretty dubious about that.

"What? Like dumb about it when some dude who looks like you shows up in their hive with a gun? Because that's something they might like a heads up for."
nitrodamus: (gemini)

"What, lure him out of here so that he can murder you in the fucking street?" Sollux says, ears coming to full alert. "KK, that's fucking stupid as hell."

Sollux narrows his eyes, obviously dubious of CONDOR's effectiveness in that regard. He knows there are limits. He also doubts that the other people in this house are less secure than Karkat - he now has the leisure of a small amount of arrogance again. It feels great.

He groans. "Look, does this guy need to go down or what? Are we going to murder him or something?"
nitrodamus: (i don't like it)

[personal profile] nitrodamus 2014-04-13 05:08 am (UTC)(link)
Sollux tilts an ear in confusion.

"Confused like how? Like he wasn't sure if he was going to?" he asks.
nitrodamus: (okay yes)

[personal profile] nitrodamus 2014-04-13 05:17 am (UTC)(link)
"Okay...so, you clone guy is hiveshit. This much we know. That doesn't really make him sound less likely to fuck you up. The fuck did someone even want to clone a crazy dude and send him after you anyway?"

He pauses.

"...We're sure he's like a clone, right?"
nitrodamus: (okay yes)

[personal profile] nitrodamus 2014-04-13 05:24 am (UTC)(link)
He frowns. Him being a confused lab experiment doesn't really make killing him feel very karmic.

"So like...they brainwashed him into thinking he's this guy?" He pauses. "...Like I mean, there's obviously a bunch of stuff that only the actual Signless could know, if it was that long ago."
nitrodamus: (okay yes)

[personal profile] nitrodamus 2014-04-13 05:30 am (UTC)(link)
Sollux rolls his eyes. At least that's probably what he's doing. It isn't super clear.

"I mean, for the future, jackass! We have the fucking Disciple who was like his matesprit or some bullshit, if she can find him then she'll know for sure whether or not there's more to it than him just being a clone."
nitrodamus: (i don't like it)

[personal profile] nitrodamus 2014-04-13 05:38 am (UTC)(link)
"Yeah, I guess..." he says. "Not that I actually know shit all about the guy. This whole thing is fucked."
nitrodamus: (i don't like it)

[personal profile] nitrodamus 2014-04-13 05:41 am (UTC)(link)
"Probably," he replies, without really questioning it. He falls silent for a few moments, hesitating. He can't really decide whether to bring up his conversation with the Disciple. "Aren't you like...into it, though. Or something."
nitrodamus: (okay yes)

[personal profile] nitrodamus 2014-04-13 05:50 am (UTC)(link)
"Yeah. Duh," he says, uneasily, frowning at his friend. "But if you were just some asshole reading this book and there wasn't this whole deal where you share blood and horn size with Alternia's spiritual savior...would you like...want to be a Sufferist or what?"
nitrodamus: (okay yes)

[personal profile] nitrodamus 2014-04-13 06:05 am (UTC)(link)
Sollux nods a little. Like, he kind of gets it. Even if he isn't really disposed the same way to this kind of thing as Karkat. Karkat was just kind of a dumb motherfucker in some ways, and him being at all passionate about something like this still kind of astounds him.

"Which is probably most people, I guess." He pauses again. "...So do you...like this guy then, or whatever? Who the Sufferer is actually supposed to be, I mean. Like besides the clones and death threats, do you like being related to him?"
nitrodamus: (fuuuuckkthhh)

[personal profile] nitrodamus 2014-04-13 06:14 am (UTC)(link)
"I don't know," Sollux shoots back abruptly, "why are you being so pissed off about it?"
