viiru2alert | eleven (video) ♊ vacation's where i wanna be

[Good evening, friends. Sollux kicks this feed off with a shot of four baby Pokémon -- a Dratini, Bulbasaur, Venipede, and Larvitar -- all kind of napping or something together. The Gear lingers on them for a second, and then twirls back around so everyone watching can get an eyeful of Sollux's hideous glasses. Oh god they're awful.] So, since Team Megido has now touched base in Olivine and I have nothing to do because, oh look, I already have my motherfucking Gym Badge [this was directed towards someone off-screen], I decided that now would be a great time to dick around a little on the PokéGear.

So, it's getting damn close to summer. The weather's getting warmer and it's fucking fabulous, I literally couldn't be happier with the current state of the thermometer right now. Unfortunately, all of the springtime fun and allergies and shit also meant that I have four freshly-hatched little asswipes crawling around all over the place. I think everyone's kind of sick of them by no-- oh, wait, did I say four? Sorry, meant five. [And the screen moves AGAIN, to a picture of an adorable baby Vullaby picking at her feathers.] Look at that bitch. Found her wandering around in the Safari Zone. Do you people know how long I've been looking for one of these? Way too fucking long.

[And then the feed goes back to him. Maybe he's done gloating about his altogether unremarkable accomplishments... maybe.] And now I'm going to get back on topic. Summer. Back on Trollplanet, the Dim Season didn't mean much except the night-time got hotter, and the day-time got... well, also hotter, but the sun also kind of scorched all of your skin off if you walked out there anyway. There weren't any of these... festivals or holidays or shit. In fact, there weren't any festivals at all.

So, what's the difference between a festival and those godawful parties? Please tell me they're at least bigger. I've been dragged to several holiday parties now and all of them have had too many people in not enough room.

Oh, it was not. You're being overdramatic!

[Grumblegrumblehiss]

...Well, now you're being a wiggler. Use your words!

[ or not she doesn't really care, she's mostly teasing now. ]

gofuckyourselfonarustyironstick.

Rude!

[ JUST LAUGHING AT YOU... ]

[HMPH]

That's no way to treat a friend, you know!

Did you expect anything else?

Not really, no, but someone in this team has to be optimistic sometimes!

You're fighting a losing battle, AA. [Sollux shakes his head at her. Poor, innocent, eager Aradia.]

Am not! Kanaya's fairly optimistic in her own way. You're the one who's outnumbered!

Uh, wrong. There's four people in this group. You, Kanaya, me [he points to the left side of his head] and me [he points to the right side of his head].

I think we still outnumber you, because if we count multiple selves, I outnumber pretty much anyone!

[ SO...THERE... ]

But for each one of your selves, there was a timeline that contained everyone else, including me and also me, right?

I'm counting all the iterations of me, too, from alive-dead-frog-robot-fairy. So I win!

No, I win, 'cause not all timelines have you in all five forms. But there's two of me EVERYWHERE.

But I'm in at least two forms in all timelines, therefore I win!

[ At least, she normally dies. :T Her life is questionable. ]

But I was half-dead at one point, too. [Or so he heard.] That's another bunch for me.

Do you really think you have a time player beat in selves, Sollux? I think there are more Aradias and Daves than anyone else!

I can pretend.

I know what this is about - you wish you were a time player, like us.

[ that's not it. ]

No, I just want to feel superior in some sick, twisted way.

Say that again, but this time try to be more smug about it.

No, I just wwant to feel superior in some sick, twwisted wway.

[ ....pffffffffffft hahahaha okay Sollux, you win this round, Aradia can't actually do words through laughter. ]
