If you can't handle something just chewing on your hair I have no idea how the fuck you survive any of the actual dangerous shit out here.

[ i'm sorry he won't stop bringing it up because he refuses to let marinette have the last word. stop saying shit, marinette. ]

Also why the fuck does your human dad want you to model?

[missmaladroite]

[She was going to let it go. She was going to let it be. She was going to move on]

[But he had to pull her back in]

It's not about surviving dangerous-- stuff [let Marinette say 'shit'!!] It's about common decency!

[she's gonna fight you]

[monsieurchatastrophe]

[he's going to die in this conversation. why is this happening.

HE HATES TALKING ABOUT MODELLING BUT HE JUST WANTS THE SUBJECT TO CHANGE SO BADLY]

He's a fashion designer, so... [and, because he is desperate:] Um. Why "human dad"? Do you ... not have "fathers" in your culture?

[NO ADRIEN DON'T ASK ABOUT HOMESTUCK]

[alienates]

[ he opened his mouth to continue telling marinette how WRONG and DUMB she is, but then adrien does it

he asks about homestuck ]

No. We have lusii. To explain it simply in terms that you would understand, we basically have monsters look after us when we're young. As we grow older, it becomes more of an even exchange between us and our lusus. We help them, they help us.

[missmaladroite]

[honestly, what's worse here]

[She's still pretty mad, but Adrien talking does a good job of distracting her. Hubba hubba.]

[So she asks resentfully:]

How is that even supposed to work?

[monsieurchatastrophe]

[THIS IS SO MUCH BETTER THAN AN ARGUMENT ABOUT BIRDS, adrien thinks, unaware of what he might've unleashed]

It sounds like it's a symbiotic relationship. [and he sounds like a fuckin nerd who thinks thats Cool] Is that why you're taking care of those birds?

[adrien you can't just ask someone if a random bird is their make-up dad?????????]

[alienates]

[ karkat was about to say that adrien more or less got it, and FUCKING THEN ]

What? No! Do you walk around with your eyes closed all the time? Have you not seen how many animals are just running around base because everyone cannot stop adopting every furry shitbag that flutters its sight hairs at them? No, that is not why I am taking care of them. I'm not even taking care of them! I just brought them here because it's safer than where I found them.

[missmaladroite]

[Don't mind Marinette sarcastically handflapping and imitating Karkat's faces and talking when he's not looking]

[SHE'S NOT PETTY OR ANYTHING!!!]

Oh, let me guess. You rescued these poor things from the depths of the ocean, where they were chewing on eels.

[Don't be mean, Marinette]

[monsieurchatastrophe]

[what's worse: accidental xenophobia or karkat's sudden ranting or marinette's apparent capacity to be a giant dick

okay that last one he is kind of amused by even tho it seems ODDLY FAMILIAR, SOMEHOW, but also how did he get back to fighting between marikat why is this]

He did say they were endangered? [then to karkat:] I'm sorry. I shouldn't have assumed anything, that was rude.

[alienates]

Yeah, I did. It's nice to know that you do not give even half of a fuck for something endangered though! I'll make a note of it so I won't trust you with anything important.

[ flips!!! marinette off!!!! ]

[missmaladroite]

[Sticks out her tongue at Karkat while he's not looking.....]

[But rolls her eyes while he's flipping her off!!]

He could be lying to try to make himself look better.

[Marikat is the new Marichat]
