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.

[Quietly pushes his plate in your direction.

You've always shared forks with her, dude. Chill out. :|]

[grigoriwings.livejournal.com]

[And without a second thought, she's doing just that; taking up his fork, tugging off a bite, and putting it into her mouth. She holds the fork there for a moment, looking thoughtful, before she pulls it out and sets it back on the place.]

It's good. [She leans over a bit to look at the selection on the table.] I'd still rather have ice cream, though.

[hesgotsoul.livejournal.com]

Maybe they've got some here.

[grigoriwings.livejournal.com]

Hm...

[And then she spies some, chilling in a tub of ice to keep it cold. She takes a few bouncing steps over to it, grinning.]

Yes, awesome!

[hesgotsoul.livejournal.com]

Oh. Guess you got lucky.

[Puttering off for a bit to fetch a bowl for you.]

[grigoriwings.livejournal.com]

[She's managed to scoop some out by the time he comes back, and she takes it from him when he returns.]

Thanks, Soul!

[And she's being overly nice, because, what the hell, you're still being weird. 8|]

[hesgotsoul.livejournal.com]

[Uh.]

No problem.

[...She never really thanks him for anything and that's cool, so why now? o_O]

[grigoriwings.livejournal.com]

[Yes, she's totally overcompensating.]

Did you want some, too?

[hesgotsoul.livejournal.com]

I can try it, I guess.

[grigoriwings.livejournal.com]

[And so she scoops some extra into the bowl before walking back over to stand beside him. She scoops up some, looks like its chocolate, before holding out the spoon.]

Here, we'll share.

[hesgotsoul.livejournal.com]

Oh.

[Taking it, popping it into his mouth. Ice cream is always nice...]

[grigoriwings.livejournal.com]

[She takes the spoon back when he's done, putting a spoonful into her mouth, too. Maka then taps it against the bowl thoughtfully before speaking.]

Hey, Soul...?

[hesgotsoul.livejournal.com]

Yeah?

[grigoriwings.livejournal.com]

Um, I saw a mission on the board today that we could take. Did you maybe want to go?

[Ugh, why did that sound so awkward?]

[hesgotsoul.livejournal.com]

[Thankfully, he's too awkward to notice HER awkward.]

Sure.

[grigoriwings.livejournal.com]

Cool.

[Ugh. What? Just...going to busy herself with her ice cream, now.]
