The oh-so-OPEN housewarming party assault log

[spandexisyouth]

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.

[So he heard about this party over the network. Does he know anybody? Nope. But the food is pretty good. And goddamn, free booze always tastes amazing.]

TROLL TAG TEAM GO

[Yeah okay so Phoenix was supposed to be in the clinic, but a bit of fresh air was always good... and besides, there were talks of free food and Phoenix can never say no to free food.

So here he is now, helping hmself to a plate of noodles somewhere nearby and slurping rather noisily. He's not in the Watch, yes, but anybody was welcome, so~]

WHOO!

[silvershamurai.livejournal.com]

[Oh? What's that? Somebody who looks as much like a bum as Gintoki feels. Something familiar about the guy though...]

Hey, keep it down over there, pretty sure the chef isn't here to listen to you thank him for the meal.

[Is what he says in between his own noisy slurps. This is how Gintoki socializes though.]

[not getting involved, just.]

[dungenessmaster]

[Karkat side-eyes you both suspiciously. who the fuck are these douchebags; did Gai just invite the entire city?]

YEAAAAH also hello Karkat : >

[thirteenthace.livejournal.com]

Oh, he isn't? [Sounds vaguely disappointed, althought he doesn't lessen his slurping.] These noodles are quite delicious though.

[Not as good as China's, but still good.]

[silvershamurai.livejournal.com]

The noodles haven't got a thing on the spring rolls. You tried those yet?

[thirteenthace.livejournal.com]

No, not yet. [Slurps a bit more.] I'll get to them after this then, I suppose.

[silvershamurai.livejournal.com]

I know this sounds crazy and all, but forsake the sweet and sour sauce and go for the barbecue. Trust me.

[He's eyeing that beanie pretty suspiciously now though.]

Your daughter give you that hat? Looks terrible.

[thirteenthace.livejournal.com]

Barbecue, huh? [Small grin.] Thanks.

[Gives himself a moment to eat up more of his noodles before glancing abck at the other to reply.] You think so? I think its wonderful, personally.

[silvershamurai.livejournal.com]

I'm sure it's nice by itself, but with the tracksuit? Nah.

[He pretends to think.]

It could also match a nicely pressed suit. Maybe a blue one.

[thirteenthace.livejournal.com]

[Amused chuckle.]

I'm not much if a suit guy these days.

[silvershamurai.livejournal.com]

I knew it!

You're Phoenix Wright. The Apollo Justice Phoenix Wright. The one who speaks in riddles in comparison to the first three games and gives me headaches!

[thirteenthace.livejournal.com]

[Blinks.]

Excuse me? [He knows his name... and he knows about Apollo? o3o]

[silvershamurai.livejournal.com]

You are Phoenix Wright, aren't you? The one who-- [He lowers his voice.] The one who lost his job? Adopted a daughter?

[thirteenthace.livejournal.com]

[Another blink.]

I am. How did you know, though? [He doesn't mention it too often, so...]

[silvershamurai.livejournal.com]

[Might be trolling here.]

You're from a game. Figure that one out, brother.

[thirteenthace.livejournal.com]

[o3o]

A game, you say?

[silvershamurai.livejournal.com]

Yeah. For the Bentendo TS. Your current self? From the fourth. People say that's when you got smart. But I guess you had to in order to play mentor to Apollo.

For the record, I didn't like Apollo.

[conheir]

[he's on his way to get some food and-- oh hey, he'd recognize that hair anywhere! the guy who got him the awesome Little Monsters poster!! what was his name again...]

Sakata! [still got the name order mixed up from last time, whoops. he gives a wide wave with his free arm, the other resting snug in a sling.]

[silvershamurai.livejournal.com]

[He looks up, mouth stuffed full of noodles. Look! There's a stray one hanging from his mouth before he slurps it in.]

Well. John, wasn't it? My first client. It's just Gin, by the way. [His gentle smile is then reconfigured into a frown when he sees the sling.]

Someone hurt you? [He gets a sneaking suspicion it happened sometime during all of the recent chaos, but he figures he'd ask anyway.]

[conheir]

[he looks down at his sling, instinctively looking almost surprised. oh, right, that's there! he's quite used to having two arms that are not in a sling, actually.

then he glances back up at gin with a sheepish smile and a weird one-shouldered shrug.]

Just a kishin! It was kind of my bad though, durr.

[silvershamurai.livejournal.com]

[So he's a Meister? Gotta badtouch the kids, don't you BREW, you bastard.]

Just a kishin? [his smile's just the smallest bit sad.] You're tough for a little guy. My partner was in the clinic for days 'cause he got messed up real bad. He's about as old as me, but as fragile as a newborn giraffe, apparently.

[That's Gintoki-ese for "I'm glad you're alright now."]

[conheir]

Oh jeez, baby animals aren't strong at all! Is your friend okay??

[Gintoki-ese, meet the air above John's head. Have fun flying right through it!]

John you are too cute. T^T

[silvershamurai.livejournal.com]

[He almost chuckles. Almost. This kid...]

He'll be fine. He has this outrageous hair that protects him magically. I've always assumed it was from the mass hair products he uses.

Don't you get into too much trouble. You don't want to wind up in the same clinic ward as him.

NO U GINTOKI SLDKJFDSF TnT

[conheir]

Pffft. Man, I don't know if I want to call bullshit on that. Because that would be kind of hilarious.

[and he just gives a cheeky grin in reply] Haha, I'm fine, Gin! This is going to get better soon, and then my shrugs will look totally not lame anymore, heh.
