The oh-so-OPEN housewarming party assault log

Characters: Karkat, Gai, and anyone and everyone who drops by!
Location: Karkat's new 'hivething.'
Rating: PG?
Time: Afternoon
Description: Karkat is moving. Gai wants to cheer up his perpetually grumpy friend. Anyone can have seen Gai's post on the network and drop by.



It didn't take many stealth skills at all to plan this party. The filters on the devices made things very easy, and with the labor as greatly divided as it was Gai didn't even have to haul a whole bunch of stuff to where Karkat would be moving in.

Picking the lock was the work of moments and then Gai was in the apartment, starting to set up. Soon others would join him to help prepare, and hopefully Karkat would be slow enough in returning that he would only come when everything was ready. Gai would hope, at least.


[ooc: Feel free to set up more headers/threads than the three I've put here for convenience!]

Cheshire arrived early to the party he decided to crash so that he could be very helpful.

Helpful in driving the people actually trying to set things up crazy.

He pounced on balloons, popping them, sat on the folded table cloths, chased people's feet, and even tied a few shoelaces together. Aren't parties fun?

[ Good thing Jade doesn't wear shoes with laces! She grabs one of the table cloths before he can sit on it. ]

Behave!

[Cheshire sits anyway, wrapping his tail around his feet. Who's not behaving? I'm a perfectly behaved cat.]

The bee has what?

[identity profile] memorymodus.livejournal.com 2011-06-16 12:39 am (UTC)(link)
Behave, it's a word...oh jeez, you're not going to listen, are you?

[identity profile] nocathere.livejournal.com 2011-06-16 05:42 am (UTC)(link)
I seem to have that missing!

[Nope, not listening at all.]

I thought this was Karkat's hive!

[identity profile] memorymodus.livejournal.com 2011-06-16 07:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, it is! It's Karkat's house, or hive, or whatever.

[Hey, hey! That's not nice at all! He likes bowmeows but this one is too mischievous. He tries to shoo him away.]

Hey, you can't play in here! Go outside!

[identity profile] nocathere.livejournal.com 2011-06-16 03:52 am (UTC)(link)
[But he is a Cheshire cat, not a bowmeow! He's not budging either. He just rolls over on his back and stretches out his paws. While laying on a tablecloth the young boy probably needed.]

I'm not playing, I'm trolling.

[Really, Karkat only has himself to blame for that one.]

[identity profile] portal2thestars.livejournal.com 2011-06-16 04:30 am (UTC)(link)
[Geez the animals here are sure a handful! He's going to gives him his best "I'm Serious You Better Stop That Right Now" stare, eye-to-eye.]

Well, go troll outside. We're setting up tables here.

[identity profile] nocathere.livejournal.com 2011-06-16 11:35 am (UTC)(link)
[Cheshire's tail flicked in a bit of annoyance, but he rolled back over and at least got off the tablecloth, if not outside.]

I couldn't be very helpful outside, could I?

[Cheshire batted at the ribbon as the balloon was saved from his claws. His tail lashed about but he kept on smiling up at Gai. He nodded]

They're not about to pull a Cheshire!

[identity profile] nocathere.livejournal.com 2011-06-16 10:47 am (UTC)(link)
At home I'm known for leaving just my smile.

[Cheshire keeps grinning up at him, sorely wishing that he could show the technique. He had found while training with Vriska that doing that as a blade felt much the same as it did at home. It was unfortunate that it was limited to when he was transformed.]

[ANNND John's realizing that putting up streamers with one arm is a bit of a challenge!!

With some thinking, he's managed to make do by donut-rolling the tape and sticking it on before he steps on the chair to hang the streamers up. With his arm in a sling, he probably should have just let someone else do this while he set up food or something, but now that he's started, it's almost FUN seeing how many he can get up with just one arm. As his dad might say, it builds character!!

[Cue Katakura Koujurou, zipping in to help you out.]

Perhaps I can be of assistance.
conheir: (Examine laptop.)

[personal profile] conheir 2011-06-15 01:52 am (UTC)(link)
[And he blinks down at the man from up where he's standing on the chair. He sticks the streamer he's currently holding to the ceiling, then plops down to sit in the chair with a grin, sticking his available hand out as an introductory offering.]

Hi, I'm John! I am doing okay, but you can help if you want to. What's your name?

[identity profile] forbearanced.livejournal.com 2011-06-15 02:05 am (UTC)(link)
[Blinking at the hand, then taking it. Awkwardly.]

I am Katakura Koujurou, of Oshu. My life and blade are sworn to Date Masamune.

Well met, John.
conheir: (Behold puffy oracle.)

[personal profile] conheir 2011-06-15 02:47 am (UTC)(link)
[He shakes the hand with enthusiasm!!]

Whoa. You sound really classy! Like, you know, James Bond or something.

[Letting go of the handshake to reach down, pick up a streamer, and hand it over to him]

[Yugo's here with the food! He's brought fruit and some sandwiches and all that good stuff. Right now he's setting up the tables, arranging everything to look nice and neat.]

[identity profile] portal2thestars.livejournal.com 2011-06-16 04:32 am (UTC)(link)
[He beams back.] It's okay, Gai! You don't have to repay me. Right now, we have to focus on making this the best housewarming party ever!

[identity profile] portal2thestars.livejournal.com 2011-06-17 12:19 am (UTC)(link)
Super! I'm sure Karkat will be really happy to see everyone here!
