[mrcreamsicles]

because i want them
cant a bird guy wants eggs for no special reason

[quadrangle]

[Just to reiterate, what.]

LIKE TO BROOD OVER THEM OR WHAT?

[mrcreamsicles]

[He considers.]

maybe?
seppucrow stole my entry egg and did that for hours straight
where do i even find good nest materials in this hellhole

[quadrangle]

OK IS THIS SOME INEXPLICABLE SPRITE THING OR IS THIS PLACE GETTING TO YOU THAT MUCH?

[mrcreamsicles]

i dont know dude
being half crow makes you think about stuff
i dont get on your case for your weird troll stuff that much do i

[quadrangle]

I'M JUST CONCERNED OK? AND MILDLY WEIRDED OUT. AND YOU DO TOO GET ON MY CASE ABOUT WEIRD TROLL SHIT DON'T EVEN PRETEND OTHERWISE.

[mrcreamsicles]

sometimes i wonder what your horns feel like

[...]

uh
ignore that

[...]

what i mean is troll culture is weird and i havent had three years to get used to it
not like dave and rose did
but im pretty sure the eggs arent a problem so dont worry about it
just let me know if you find any

[quadrangle]

[...???]

THEY'RE HORNS. WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU THINK THEY FEEL LIKE? *HORNS*, DUH. HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN THINKING ABOUT THIS.

[Not that he can... really judge, considering certain thoughts he may or may not have had about dem wings tho, but still. Oh god, this probably really is Davesprite's loss, isn't it? Shit. Quick, change the subject, UH—]

AND I HAVEN'T HAD THREE YEARS TO GET USED TO YOU, EITHER. JUST PUTTING THAT OUT THERE.
AS FOR THE EGG THING, UH
SURE, IF IT'S THAT IMPORTANT TO YOU? BUT I DON'T THINK I'M LIKELY TO FIND ANY REAL ONES. DOES IT HAVE TO BE A REAL EGG?

[mrcreamsicles]

since i saw them
i mean you say theyre horns but how many horns do you think ive felt in my life
spoilers its a fuckton jades grandpa had all kinds of weird dead stuff in her house
and theres different ones depending on the shape and junk like that
plus
youre a space alien from another universe
so i dont know how yours work plus youre alive and not dead
so i gotta wonder are they smooth or rough and how does it feel where they grow up out of your head
like does the skin gradually get harder or are the bases all soft
and what about the ends do they have any kind of tangible point at all
can you feel anything with them
its hard not to wonder
as for the eggs
i think as long as it looks the part its better than nothing

[quadrangle]

[.......... shit.]

OK I'M
THE ONLY REASON I'M TELLING YOU THIS RIGHT NOW IS TO MAKE THINGS FAIR, OK? BECAUSE IT SEEMS MORE AND MORE LIKE THIS REALLY IS YOUR LOSS AND IT DOESN'T SEEM RIGHT TO HAVE YOU SPEWING ALL THESE INNERMOST THOUGHTS AND SO ON WITH NO FILTER. I MEAN LESS OF A FILTER THAN USUAL.
SO UH

[...]

FUCK, NEVERMIND. I GUESS YOU CAN TOUCH THEM? WHEN WE MEET UP AGAIN. AND AS LONG AS YOU WARN ME AHEAD OF TIME AND DON'T MAKE IT WEIRD.

[mrcreamsicles]

dude
vantas
you already made it weird
what were you going to admit because now im going to keep wondering until you spill it

[quadrangle]

YOU MADE IT WEIRD FIRST!!
AND FINE OK SO I WANT TO TOUCH YOUR WINGS??
OR JUST KNOW WHAT THEY FEEL LIKE I MEAN THAT'S THE SAME THING BUT FUCK OK THERE I MADE IT WEIRD ARE YOU HAPPY NOW

[mrcreamsicles]

karkat it wouldnt have been weird if you just said "you can but only if i can feel your wings"
but you made a big deal about how you were only saying it because of circumstances and then didnt say it at all until i asked
you made it way weirder than i ever did
if you promise you wont literally explode from your own straining anxiety complex you can touch my wings
and ill touch your horns
and it will be as normal as two weirdos getting a palmful of each others nonhumanity can get

[quadrangle]

LOOK UNLIKE SOME PEOPLE I'M NOT FEELING STRANGELY COMPELLED TO CONFESS MY INNERMOST DESIRE TO GROPE SOMEONE'S SKULL PROTRUSIONS SO YOU CAN JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP. IT'S HARD TO SAY ANY OF THIS.
AND FINE, SURE. YOU TOUCH MY HORNS, I TOUCH YOUR WINGS, AND THEN WE MUTUALLY PRETEND THIS CONVERSATION NEVER HAPPENED.

[mrcreamsicles]

dude stop talking about it like im going to be fondling your knobs
any touching is going to be very minimal and to the point
thats it
the end
lets stop talking about this before it gets worse

[quadrangle]

NUBS, KNOBS, WHATEVER.
AND YES, CAN WE PLEASE? IT'S BAD ENOUGH WE'VE GONE THIS LONG ALREADY.

[mrcreamsicles]

your knobs are nubby

[Sorry, did you mean stop trolling? He had to get that in first.]

[quadrangle]

HEARD IT. TRY AGAIN.

cw: internalized homophobia??? just in case

[mrcreamsicles]

nah
if we go any deeper its just going to sound like im insulting your alien dick equivalent more than it already does
and i dont need yet another weirdly gay sounding conversation with you

[quadrangle]

OH. WAIT, WHAT? THAT'S WHAT YOU WERE TRYING TO SAY? UGH WHY IS ALIEN ANATOMY SO WEIRD.
AND YEAH OK I'LL STOP.

[mrcreamsicles]

no
fuck
your horns are kinda shaped like weird knobs and you were the one calling it groping
so it turned into a stupid joke
lets just both shut up now

[quadrangle]

ARE YOU LITERALLY INCAPABLE OF NOT RESPONDING?! OR TRYING TO EXPLAIN YOURSELF.
WHATEVER, I'M DONE. TALK TO YOU LATER.

[mrcreamsicles]

feels like it
bye
