[Hello Pokémon World. It's almost 3 in the morning and who all is still awake at this hour? Aside from John, who hasn't slept (save for occasionally nodding off for a few hours here and there) in nearly five days now. But unlike the past three nights, apparently tonight he's feeling kind of chatty.]
[Too bad he doesn't really have anything worthwhile to say...]
ok so i know there's a shit ton of stuff here that doesn't make a lot of sense.
you know like... how everything lays eggs, even the mammals?
and ghosts? ill nrver get that one at all, even if i pride myself as somethign of an ectobreeder.
and don't even get me started on fly just...
that's dumb.
SO DUMB.
but w/e, do you ever just like...sit there adn really think about some of this stuff?
like zubat.
what is even the deal with those fuckers?
they don't have any eyes. but for SOMW REASON they learn mean look.
how can they give ANYTHING a LOOK, MEAN OR OTHERWISE????
it's like how wooper can learn ice punch.
WIHT WHAT ARMS, I ASK YOU??? i am like 1000% sure you need arsm in order to punch someting.
maybe even over 9000% sure of that.
it is not possible to be more postibve of anything than i am right now about needing arms for punching.
no ok i lied we're gointo talk about the flying thing.
like how does that even work you get the hm and you use it on your bird or dragon or whatever is it just like
OH SHIT SON.
IT'S THAT THING I ALREADY KNWE HOW TO DO.
THE THING I DO BASICALLY EVERY DAY BECAUSE I'M A BIRD AND THAT'S HOW I GET AROUND.
BUT NOW I CAN *CARRY YOU*. YOU AND *ALL OF YOUR CRAP*.
what an astounding revelation your pokemon must be having.
okay, all you lucky ducks out there who can read your pokemon's minds or whatever i gotta know.
what's going through your bird/dragon/giant automaton ghost's mind when you crack the fly hm over their heads.
someone get back tome on that.
goddamn i wish i was a poketelepath.
like that would just be the coolest fucking thing. be able to talk to them in your mind and stuff.
crzy mind conversations all day, everyday. with ALL of your pokermon, not just the psychic types.
so.
cool.
only vaguely related, but i miss being able to fly on my own.
i liked it better when i didn't knoe i had powers so i had no idea what i was missing out on. :(
now it's just like "man, john, remember when you had super strength and could do the windy thing and it was basically awesoem? NOT ANYMORE, BUDDY, SORRY."
oh well, i guess.
that's the way the cookie crumbles!
speaking of cookirs, i wonder if it's possible to make literal pancakes.
like using cake batter insread of pancake batter.
but making it ina frying pan on the stove instead of in the oven.
holy shit.
i think i know what i'm goign to do once i'm done watching ghost eraser 3.
dave. dave if you're reading this you should totally come over to my room and help.
we'll do it for scinese.
wait no.
fuck science.
i forgot that science blows and is basically completyl inferior to magic in every way.
let's make kitchen magic, dude. it'll be great.
jade, you can come too even thouhg you think sciende is cool. i won't hold it against you.
even if you're still totally WRONG about that particular issue.
oh but rewind for a sec, let's talk about ghost eraser.
these are actually pretty okay as far as johto moives go. not as good as ghostbusters, sure, but not terirble either.
it's much less of a dissapontment than con dragonair, which is not even close to ebing the same thing as con air which is BASICALLY THE BEST MOVIE EVER, just saying.
i mean they fight a haunted janitor in the first one, pretty damn sweet. in ghost eraser, i mean. not con dragonair, we're not talking about that disappointment anymore.
nope nope.
but it's pretty much impoddible to be a better ghost hunter mobie than ghostbusters.
i m p o s s i b l e
holy shit when did it get to be 3am?
doing the time warp over here or something because i swaer it wasn't that late last i looked at the clock.
ahahahahahahahahahaha.
fuck.

[Except that one look at him is more than enough to make it obvious that this isn't the case. Were it not for the blue-ish light of an off-screen TV casting a spooky glow on John, he would be sitting in complete darkness. He's sitting on the bed, surrounded by pillows with the blanket pulled up over his head like a hood. His eyes have a hollowed look to them, dark circles already beginning to form from the days' worth of neglected sleep. He's smiling, but whether it's the lack of sleep or the TV-light or some weird combination of both, it's just seems wrong. It's forced, and altogether too fragile of a smile for John.]
[Aside from John though, there doesn't appear to be any other living thing in the room. Which is weird considering he always has at least one Pokémon hanging off him or at his side at all times.]
Everything is hunky dory, Karkat! Nothing to be embarrassed about!

John I am legitimately concerned for your well being.

no subject
Anyone is going to be worried.

I wish I hadn't fallen asleep. Memory sleep, I mean. I was happier not knowing things. Or...not experiencing them I guess. And I think Rose feels the same, which just makes everything worse.

The truth of the matter is that these things did happen. They happened because they need to happen. I don't know why and believe me when I say I'd rather scream "fuck you" to the universe instead of being bent over the table like one of your Japanese school girls in those animus or whatever it is you call them...
You still have friends, though. We still have each other and I know that's pretty damn cheesy and it doesn't help at all, but things will work out. Granted, I'm not really sure how they are going to and I admit that I will fly off of the handle a few more times in a paranoid fit before it does. But it will work out.
It's like I was telling Rose. This shit we're going through? It's all apart of growing up. It doesn't matter what happens, but how we choose to deal with it.
private
[But John doesn't mention any of this because he's too busy being caught up on that one particular statement.]
...Karkat what kind of anime have you been watching?
[John takes away only the most important of points.]
private
IS THAT SERIOUSLY THE ONLY THING YOU GOT FROM THAT?
private
[Eventually they'll get back to the point..........]
private
...And listening to what his tone deaf spongeclots derive as music.
private
Like, okay the stuff he mixes is really good. But his lyrics are totally the dorkiest thing and no matter how much time passes I really just don't think that will ever change.
private
...And don't you ever tell him what I am about to relay to you, Egbert. I swear, if I find out otherwise, you will suffer for the duration of our travel time together. I know where you sleep.
private
But alright, hit me my lips are zipped. [Assuming his sleep-deprived brain doesn't forget the information by tomorrow.]

But it kind of required having friends and knowing people, which I didn't as a kid so there you have it. No need to enforce the honor for me.
private
private
But wow, rude. Are you saying I don't have what it takes to be elite?
[So offended rn, Karkat.]
