Day 296
[After a strange and painful day Karkat woke up in the dark.
He should have been used to it. He woke up in the darkness of Alternia for six sweeps. But as soon as his sponge cleared and he remembered where he was, this new darkness was very disconcerning.
It took him a few blinks to realize he was blind.
After frantically calling out for Terezi, he fell off the bed he was sleeping on. His arms were shaking and he almost laughed with the irony of the situation. Maybe he had contracted her blindness.
He fumbled at his bracelet, managing to press a button. He was hoping for an audio post; he got it on the third try after repeatedly pressing what he assumes was the text post button. The network better know what's going on.]
Okay so I'm blind. I think. I can't see for shit. Someone could be literally stripping naked very silently like a stripper who majored in mime and I would have no fucking clue there were dangling bags of meat in front of me. Fucking blind as fuck! I don't know what happened or what the fuck to do or really how I'm going to reply to any of you fuckers. Maybe one of you will be helpful and come save me from the latest wretched horror that's descended upon my existence before I fall down a flight of stairs and knock my teeth out.

However, was it necessary to paint a mental image of quite so sallacious a nature? It does not improve the mood of the situation, and invites scandalous response.
[Not... probably the first person he wanted to talk to him.]
Audio
And thanks for telling me to use the only fucking form of communication available to me. Real helpful.

[Because Sir Smells a Lot is just who you want to play knight in shining armor, Karkat.]

vidya? Just as a reflex, really.
Should I come try to heal you?
not that he can tell haha
You can heal?? Well then, by all means, come on down! As much as I enjoy being a cripple, I don't think the image really suits me. I'm more of the 'cool guy with the anger problem' than the 'sensitive quiet blind one'.
And I don't know how it happened!! I could see fucking clear as crystal last night. My eyes were sore all day, though I thought that was a side effect of seeing too many dull-ass fuckers.
o Karkat
Wait, you don't think... seeing too many gray people makes you blind, do you?!
no subject
But I've heard a lot of people are getting sick, so maybe my theory, in all it's excellence, isn't sound.
Uhh, well I'm in a park in the Loki district. I may or may not be lost.
(please, please find me.)
no subject
Eh heh, okay! I'll be there in a moment! You're pretty easy to find!
no subject
I'll just wait here, then. [He fummbles his way to the ground, sitting against what he really hopes is a tree. It felt like a tree when accidentally smooshed his face against it, earlier.]

[There's a snuffle and a snort as Pounce gently chastises her for worrying herself when she's not well. She's been fussing over Nepeta all day.]

[There's a small, disapproving growl.]
I'm sorry, Karkat, Pounce doesn't want me to go out. [She may or may not have just sat on Nepeta.] Equius said he'd help you, right?
no subject
...How are you feeling, though? Are your eyes hurting? Fuck, I hope it's not contagious!! Fuck my shitty ass existence it probably is and I will be once again the cause of the fall of another civilization. Fuck I'm so sorry Nepeta we'll learn how to deal, maybe we can call up Terezi and she can give us blind lessons. She's so far ahead of the game she'll probably be our new leader in this forming dystopia.
no subject
No, my eyes are fine. Calm down, Karkat! I'm just sick, not blind. We'll get you home and then you can relax here until we find a way of fixing things. You didn't do anything, this isn't your fault.
no subject
I sincerely think I'm dying.

Everyone's sick. Just - try to relax, okay? Go slow. Don't run into anything.
Re: audio;

Karkat. Shut up, seriously, we're going to be fine, people don't even stay dead here. Shush. Shuuuuuuush. Do you want me to bring you some soup? I could probably manage that.
no subject
[If you were to see him, you'd notice he was facepalming] of course we're not dying! I'm not stupid! I was just making sure you felt better. Since I know you were probably losing your shit. Humans have unfortunately small shitcapacitors in their think pans, I know. Don't worry Jade, we're going to be okay.
no subject
[ She's already climbing clumsily to her feet, seeking out some sort of jacket or shoes. ]
And I don't really give a damn if we die -- we'll just come back if we do. D'you want me to look for you or not?
no subject
[secretly it's made him feel a lot better. He feels even better when he hears Jade's offer.]
Yeah, it'd be nice if you could just spin me around and point me towards Nepeta's hive. I'll just keep walking straight until I hit it.
