DAY 113

I'M STILL KARKAT. YOU'RE PROBABLY USED TO THE GAPS IN DAILY UPDATES BY NOW.

I COULDN'T HELP BUT NOTICE THAT TODAY'S TECHNICALLY MY WRIGGLING DAY? AT LEAST AS CLOSE AS YOU CAN GET TO IT ON THE CALENDARS WE'VE GOT AROUND HERE.

SO... THAT'S COOL, I GUESS. I DON'T PLAN ON DOING MUCH TO CELEBRATE IT THOUGH. IT'S JUST NOT THAT SPECIAL, TO ME.

I DID BAKE A CUPCAKE THOUGH? WHICH I'VE NEVER DONE BEFORE, SO IT'S REALLY BY SOME MIRACLE THAT IT CAME OUT LOOKING FINE.

I WASN'T REALLY GONNA DO EVEN THAT, BUT I RECENTLY FOUND AN OLD MUFFIN TIN AND THREE AND A HALF CUPCAKE WRAPPERS (HALF BECAUSE ONE OF THEM WAS RIPPED IN HALF?) LYING AROUND THAT I DON'T REMEMBER BUYING, AND I DIDN'T HAVE MUCH TO DO WITH THAT SHIT, SO I MIGHT AS WELL USE IT FOR THIS.

HAPPY 612 TO THE OTHER KARKATS OUT THERE.

[casey-egbertnumber1]

hhalpy burfday!!!!!!!!! :DDDDD i wil mak a cake!!!!!!;

[casey-egbertnumber1]

(birthday cake GET!!!)

(suddenly, a cake shaped into a particularly angry troll is thrust into view by a very proud salamander. the icing is a little too sweet, the horns are made out of ice cream cones covered in colored frosting, and the eyes are yellow gumballs melting already into the frosting. it was very clearly, made with lots of love.)

hereh ere here!!!!!!!!!! itis vanillu dony woru :)))))

[unbecomingkarkat]

?.?? W? HUH??????????WHAT ??/ ?

?????????? OH MY GOG THANK YOU???

THAT'S ACTUALLY REALLY WELL MADE, DA-...RN. I DON'T KNOW WHERE YOU GOT ENOUGH ICING OF THAT MUCH COLOR VARIETY. I'M NOT A HUGE FAN OF CAKE IN GENERAL, BUT...

(UHM ROLEPLAY ACTION DESCRIPTION THING: CAKE SLICE GET. YEAH.)

YOU SHOULD PASS IT AROUND SO THE OTHERS ALSO GET A SLICE, IF THEY WANT ONE.

IT FEELS LIKE EVERYONE'S TEN TIMES MORE EXCITED ABOUT MY WRIGGLING DAY THAN EVEN I AM RIGHT NOW. I MEAN, IT'S TECHNICALLY NOT MY REAL WRIGGLING DAY SO IT'S A LITTLE POINTLESS.

THANK YOU, THOUGH.

[casey-egbertnumber1]

( ooc ) hey been a while sorry about that still not davesprite yet

but hey its my 100th day in the amiyetsphere congrats also to all the others who started during that same wave as me not to get too sappy here but this community means a lot to me and i feel kinda insanely lucky to have met yall

cough anyway blink comic and other happenings on the rp front should be continuing soon

i guess i should do this too while were here

day 100: not yet

[amijasproseyet]

Hi. This is my likely final message. I am Jasprose.

Anyways, I've completed this goal, and will only keep up this account as an archive/if I want to come back to it. I've met lovely people in this community, and obviously I would love if any of you interact on @im-going-insane87.

I would also like to mention another sideblog of mine that is active, @antiqueflorist , my oc blog.

[amijasproseyet]

I JUST REALIZED I ENDED THIS ON THE HUNDREDTH DAY!!!!

[amipipefan413yet]

(action description follows:

Pipe climbs the stairs to the second floor, heading towards the bathroom where he and Casey left the cherub. They're nervous. Their hands are sweaty. He's not sure what he'll find when he opens the door, but he has to be strong and he has to be brave, for Casey and for John and for everyone else.

He has to make the right choice.

Pipe opens the door and stops dead in their tracks. This is not what they expected.)

what the... calliope???

@amicalibornyet

[amicalibornyet]

(Description: Indeed, it is Calliope who Pipe is seeing, indicated by the green color of her eyes and the green swirls on her cheeks. Though, she of course has the same scar and is wearing the same botched Lord of Time outfit.)

oh. Uhm.

(She stares straight back at Pipe with a blank expression for a long, awkward silence. Then, she coughs to the side before smiling at him in a sort of polite-looking way. She seems tense.)

...goodness, i was hoping i'd have prepared something to say by now. do forgive me, i only woke Up an hoUr or two ago. u_u

yes! i am, in fact, calliope. and if i am not mistaken, yoU go by pipe!

i sUppose yoU have... qUestions. please go ahead.

[amipipefan413yet]

(Pipe is taken aback for a moment and stares at her before his brain processes what's going on.)

Wait, how do you know that? And why on earth are you pretending to be Caliborn? And why are you still here? If you could get out of the restraints so easily, you can get out of this house without much difficulty at all.

(Pipe stops for a moment before adding:)

And... sorry for knocking you out earlier? I guess? Maybe?

[amicalibornyet]

(Her most immediate reaction is at the question of "pretending". Even at the idea of such a thing her smile immediately drops into a concerned and confused expression.)

pretending...? what makes yoU think i woUld do that? no no no no no, yoU mUst be confUsed.

(She points at one of her own cheeks, emphasizing the swirl present rather than a circle.)

UnfortUnately, he is still with me. i coUld never harm any of yoU in the ways he has so far!

please don't ever accUse me of being similar enoUgh to him to go throUgh with any of what he's done.

(...She quickly composes herself again.)

bUt, as for yoUr other qUestions, i have read some posts on yoUr blog! enoUgh to know yoUr preferred name, at the very least.

and, i am still here becaUse i recognize this hoUse! since caliborn has been pretending i do not exist anymore, i figUred staying long enoUgh to clear some things Up may be wise.

[amipipefan413yet]

(Pipe blinks. It's been so long since he's seen Calliope - or Caliborn for that matter!! - and it takes him a second to process. Right. Swirls. )

Sorry, I didn't mean to offend. I know you wouldn't do that. Just... confused here I guess?

Can you tell me what exactly is going on and what he's up to?

(He wasn't sure how he knew it, but it felt true: he could trust Calliope. Thinking about it too much made his head hurt.)

[amicalibornyet]

...what he's Up to... that woUld be a bit complicated to answer. i'm not entirely sUre myself.

last i recall, he was going to go meet an ally of his, a void player, for some sort of exchange?

he keeps information from me, bUt i can still theorize that mUch from what notes i have been able to read.

really thoUgh, i hope we are both on the same page that he is definitely not Up to anything good. as he always is.

[amipipefan413yet]

Well... that doesn't sound very good. What do you suggest? I'm happy to work with you but what happens when he's back?

This Void player sounds like trouble.

(Something tugs at the back of Pipe's mind. Something about another Void player he once knew. He blinks, and it's gone.)

[amicalibornyet]

i...

(She looked off to the side.)

i don't know. he has been planning this with them for mUltiple months now, and he doesn't seem to be wasting any time now that it is in action.

we coUld set Up some way to track him, maybe? a way to know where he is going, withoUt him being aware of it?

i coUld also simply offer information when possible...? thoUgh i have been trying to do that, believe me! i jUst have no way to contact anyone online at this moment.

yoU'll have to excUse my shortage in ideas. that mUst have been qUite the pUnch yoU dealt, becaUse my head is still killing me. bUt no offense to yoU, of coUrse!

[amipipefan413yet]

Oh um. No offense taken! I think tracking him is a good idea but I don't really know how we'd go about doing it? But we can think about that while you recover, provided you can stay in control.

When was the last time you ate? I don't think there's any raw meat here but I could probably get you candy!

(Their stomach feels a little queasy at the thought. They never really did understand the cherub diet... what?)

[amicalibornyet]

...hm! maybe! candy does soUnd qUite good right aboUt now. ^u^

i think yoU're right. i shoUld have no problem staying on the sUrface Until i fall asleep again, so we shoUld have plenty of time if approximately somewhere between 12 to 24 hoUrs proves to be enoUgh for Us to think of something.

are there others downstairs...? i know john's daUghter lives here. i hope i will not frighten her.

[amipipefan413yet]

I hope it's enough time. Um... it might be best if I let Casey know you're here first just so it's not a surprise. We'll also need a contingency plan for when you sleep or in case something happens and you lose consciousness.

(Pipe, still fairly close to the doorway, calls downstairs.)

Casey? It's not Caliborn up here! It's Calliope, and she's a friend! We're going to come down now if it's alright?

@casey-egbertnumber1

[casey-egbertnumber1]

(a very quick pitter patter is heard coming down the hallway, and casey emerges on all fours to run.)

(almost as immediate as her appearance, she leaps onto the cherub, hugging and squeezing her as tight as her little arms can.)

calliiiiiii!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :DDDDDDD i miis you i miss yuu!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[amipipefan413yet]

(( reblogging mostly to save; next move for calliope))

[amicalibornyet]

eep!

(Calliope is VERY startled by Casey's enthusiastic greeting. She only barely stops herself from flinching away. Quite hesitantly, she reaches to pet her on the head in response.)

y-yes, it is... good to see yoU as well, casey. i am flattered to know yoU missed me this mUch.

(Her expression seems sad and distant, but she's smiling anyway.)

what a relief it is that yoU are still in high spirits despite everything that has been going on! please hold onto that hope, i think things may be looking Up from here.

(She turns to look at Pipe. Her expression stays the same.)

...now, shoUld we all head downstairs? there is mUch to discUss, after all.

( @casey-egbertnumber1 tagging you so that you can keep track)

[casey-egbertnumber1]

(pulling calliope by her hands, casey tugged her around down the stairs, clearly not planning on sleeping any time soon)

howbave you een???? :)))))) do youuwanb to hav sleepovet?????????? whyu is caliiborn wit yu????? why ajr yiu soo s mall?????????? wgere havb you been!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(casey threw questions to the poor cherub faster than she could respond, clearly curious why her favorite sleepover partner is so much more different than usual.)

[unbecomingkarkat]

DAY 100

I'M STILL KARKAT, BUT I THINK I'VE MADE A LOT OF PROGRESS IN *NOT* BEING KARKAT SINCE I STARTED THIS BLOG.

I'M A LOT CALMER THESE DAYS, I DRAW (SHITTILY), I CAN ACTUALLY SOMETIMES AVOID SWEARING AND GOING ON LONG RANTS WHEN IT USED TO BE AND MOSTLY STILL IS SECOND NATURE TO ME, AND ALSO I HAVE A SLIGHT OBSESSION WITH EARTH CRABS. THAT'S WHAT I CALL PRETTY FUCKING GOOD PROGRESS!

I WAS GOING TO TRY TO BECOME ONE OF MY OLDEST SUGGESTIONS ON THIS DAY, BUT THAT'LL HAVE TO WAIT BECAUSE RIGHT NOW TIME PLOT SHIT IS PREVENTING THAT, BECAUSE TECHNICALLY SPEAKING I'M STILL AT PIPE'S PLACE AND THIS POST IS IN THE FUTURE.

^ I MEAN WHAT? THAT SENTENCE MEANS NOTHING TO ME. IT'S NOTHING. IT'S STUPID. IT'S NONSENSICAL BULLSHIT FOR IDIOT GRUBS AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT COMPELLED ME TO SAY IT. IGNORE THAT.

ANYWAY, MOST OF WHAT I PROBABLY WOULD HAVE SAID ON THIS POST HAS ALREADY BEEN BLURTED OUT ELSEWHERE (<- CLICKABLE TEXT), BUT I'LL SAY PART OF IT AGAIN: THANKS. AS A MATTER OF FACT, I'M GONNA LIST A FEW OF THE PEOPLE THAT WERE HERE IN THE EARLY DAYS OF THE BLOG AND THANK THEM INDIVIDUALLY.

THANKS BECOMINGJADEDAVEKAT, FOR BEING THE FIRST TO FIND THE BLOG AND THE FIRST TO GIVE ME A SUGGESTION OF WHO TO TRY BECOMING, AND FOR MAKING THE DISCORD SERVER MANY OF US HANG OUT AND GAMBLE IN NOW. ALSO, I NEVER ACTUALLY FINISHED THAT PSYCHOANALYSIS OF YOU, SORRY.

THANKS AMIDAVEYET? FOR PISSING ME OFF I GUESS??? NO BUT ACTUALLY, THANKS FOR INTERACTING A LOT. I PROBABLY WOULD'VE HAD TROUBLE ADMITTING THIS A WHILE AGO BUT IN HINDSIGHT I THINK OUR EARLY INTERACTIONS WERE PRETTY FUNNY. A VERY INSINCERE FUCK YOU FOR THAT. IN A NOT-ASSHOLE WAY.

THANKS IAMYELLOWVRISKA, FOR MAKING ME YELLOW AND ALMOST KILLING ME. THAT MIGHT SOUND WEIRD, BUT YOU DID ACTUALLY HELP ME BE A LITTLE LESS KARKAT. I THINK THAT WHOLE EXPERIENCE FLIPPED A SWITCH IN MY BRAIN OR SOMETHING.

THANKS UNBECOMINGJOHNEGBERT, FOR PRETTY MUCH SOLIDIFYING "UNBECOMING" AS A CATEGORY OF AMIYETS. AND ALSO WHATEVER THE WHOLE TRICKSTER MODE THING WAS? THAT WAS SOMETHING.

AND OBVIOUSLY THANKS AMIJOHNDAVEYET, BECAUSE NONE OF THIS WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF YOU HAD GIVEN UP ON YOUR GOAL EARLIER LIKE THE REST OF THE AMIYET GENERATION YOU WERE FROM.

THESE AREN'T THE ONLY PEOPLE THAT MADE AN IMPACT OBVIOUSLY, BUT I DON'T WANT TO MAKE THIS POST TOO OBNOXIOUSLY LONG.

MAYBE THIS IS A LITTLE EXAGGERATEDLY SAPPY FOR THIS KIND OF POST? I FEEL LIKE MAYBE I SHOULD'VE WAITED FOR THIS BLOG TO REACH 1 YEAR OR SOMETHING TO DO THIS. BUT OH WELL, I'M MAKING THE POST NOW ANYWAY, SO WHATEVER.

AND, AGAIN, I'VE ALREADY SAID IT ELSEWHERE, BUT I LITERALLY WOULD NOT EXIST IF IT WERE NOT FOR THIS BLOG BEING MADE. SO, THE AMIYET COMMUNITY IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ME EXISTING. YOU COULD EVEN SAY THE COMMUNITY HAD A BABY AND THE BABY IS ME. TERRIBLE REFERENCE NEVERMIND SORRY.

I'M OBVIOUSLY STILL GONNA KEEP TRYING TO UNBECOME KARKAT, THIS IS JUST A VERY LENGTHY THANK YOU POST FOR BEING AROUND LONG ENOUGH FOR ME TO GET THIS FAR. IT GIVES ME HOPE THAT MAYBE ONE DAY I'LL ACTUALLY ACHIEVE THE GOAL.

TL;DR I'M A FUCKING CORNBALL AND THIS IS DAY 100, THANKS EVERYONE.

(:B

[amipipefan413yet]

HEY, PIPE? I'M NOT SURE IF YOU CAN HEAR ME KNOCKING BECAUSE *GOG FUCKING DAMN THIS STORM IS LOUD,* SO I'M TEXTING YOU THIS TO LET YOU KNOW I'M HERE.

— SIGNED, @unbecomingkarkat

(P.S. OOC, SORRY FOR THE DELAY. DAVE AND REZI WANTED TO DO SOMETHING ON THE CALIBORNYET BLOG FIRST.)

Oh! Thank you, I can't hear a thing over all this. Just a second.

(Pipe lets Karkat into the house.)

Thank you for coming. I hope the storm didn't make the journey too rough on you...

@casey-egbertnumber1

((also no worries!!! i feel insane))

[unbecomingkarkat]

IT'S FINE, I HAD AN UMBRELLA SO AT LEAST I'M DRY.

DID ANYTHING HAPPEN WHILE YOU WERE WAITING? I MEAN, I HOPE NOT, BECAUSE THAT'D MEAN SOMETHING BAD HAPPENED PROBABLY, BUT THAT'S WHY I'M ASKING.

[casey-egbertnumber1]

(DESCRIBED ACTION IN TEXT OR SOMETHING (IN THIRD PERSON): KARKAT'S COMPLETELY CAUGHT OFF GUARD BY CASEY'S SUDDEN APPEARANCE AND STUMBLES BACK A LITTLE.)

WHATHUHWHA-

OH.

HEY AGAIN CASEY.

(HE CROUCHES DOWN. PAT PAT.)

IT'S NICE TO SEE YOU AGAIN, TOO. I CAME HERE FOR EXTRA HELP WITH THE WHOLE... UH... CALIBORN THING, TO HELP PIPE MAKE SURE HE CAN'T CAUSE THAT MUCH MORE TROUBLE.

[casey-egbertnumber1]

hihihihihi!!!!!!!!! now wr cann havev a real ttea party!!!!!;!!!!!!! :))))))))

(almost immediately she hobbled off to the kitchen, making large happy bubbles on the way.)

🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧!!!!!!!!!!!

[unbecomingkarkat]

(HE WATCHED HER LEAVE WITH A VERY TINY SMILE, BEFORE TURNING TO LOOK AT THE STAIRS LEADING UP, AND THEN TURNING TO LOOK AT PIPE.)

...SO, CALIBORN DIDN'T ATTACK YOU OR CASEY, RIGHT? I DON'T THINK I EVER ACTUALLY GOT THE MEMO ON WHETHER OR NOT HE DID ANYTHING TO EITHER OF YOU.

I WOULDN'T PUT IT PAST HIM TO BEAT UP A CHILD.

( @amipipefan413yet <- TAGGING IN CASE THIS DOESN'T APPEAR IN YOUR NOTIFICATIONS.)

[amipipefan413yet]

He didn't, no. He said he didn't even know this was John's house. Who knows if that's true... but we're both safe.

(Pipe smiles fondly after Casey as she heads into the kitchen.)

It seems like a tea party is in order, but I'm a little bit worried about Caliborn upstairs...

[unbecomingkarkat]

IT'S GOOD THAT YOU'RE FINE, AT LEAST. BUT... YEAH.

...WE COULD GO CHECK ON HIM. IF HE'S AWAKE AND SOMEHOW BROKE FREE, THEN WE CAN BOTH EASILY TAKE HIM DOWN AGAIN.

WAIT, ACTUALLY, DOES CASEY KNOW HOW TO MAKE TEA SAFELY? LIKE, IS SHE AT RISK OF BURNING HERSELF DOWN HERE OR DID JOHN TEACH HER HOW TO NOT BURN HERSELF? UHM.

SHIT, ON SECOND THOUGHT, I MIGHT NEED TO STAY DOWN HERE TO MAKE SURE SHE DOESN'T DO THAT IF SHE DOESN'T KNOW.

[amipipefan413yet]

Casey's a pro at tea! We've tried to have tea parties but it's not the same with just two people cause it's not a party. i guess john taught her??? or maybe she taught him

But you can stay down here with her if you don't mind! It definitely can't hurt.

(Pipe calls after Casey:)

I'm going to check on Caliborn really quickly!! I'll be right back for tea!!

Day 100: I am still not Lil Hal yet.

Looks like the day is finally here. It's crazy to think it's already been so long. Sorry I couldn't do too much to celebrate, but I hope this little gif and my sappy words suffice.

I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who's stuck around this far, whether you're a fellow amiyet blog or an unaffiliated follower who decided to give my little blog the time of day. I've never actually ran something like this before, but I'm glad I gave it a try. This community has been so welcoming and fun from the very moment I initially joined, and it's been really cool seeing how it's grown over time. A lot of other blogs have their 100th days coming up as well, so I hope everyone can cheer them on too.

And of course, this by no means implies my journey is over, far from it I bet. But let this be proof that I can carry on and maybe, just maybe, someday I'll make it. But for now, cheers to 100 days of trying to become Lil Hal!

HEY, PIPE? I'M NOT SURE IF YOU CAN HEAR ME KNOCKING BECAUSE *GOG FUCKING DAMN THIS STORM IS LOUD,* SO I'M TEXTING YOU THIS TO LET YOU KNOW I'M HERE.

— SIGNED, @unbecomingkarkat

(P.S. OOC, SORRY FOR THE DELAY. DAVE AND REZI WANTED TO DO SOMETHING ON THE CALIBORNYET BLOG FIRST.)

Oh! Thank you, I can't hear a thing over all this. Just a second.

(Pipe lets Karkat into the house.)

Thank you for coming. I hope the storm didn't make the journey too rough on you...

@casey-egbertnumber1

((also no worries!!! i feel insane))

[unbecomingkarkat]

IT'S FINE, I HAD AN UMBRELLA SO AT LEAST I'M DRY.

DID ANYTHING HAPPEN WHILE YOU WERE WAITING? I MEAN, I HOPE NOT, BECAUSE THAT'D MEAN SOMETHING BAD HAPPENED PROBABLY, BUT THAT'S WHY I'M ASKING.

[casey-egbertnumber1]

karkar!!!!!!!!!!!!! :000

(casey runs [and trips] after karkat, launching herself at his leg and hugging him.)

yuuare oksyyyy!!!!!!!!!!! i miss yiu!!!!!!!!! :)))))

[amicalibornyet]

After hours of walking, you've (yet again) found yourself in what might just be the most bland human neighborhood you've ever seen. Each house seems nearly like an identical copy of the next, rows and rows of soulless homes scattered at large like a maze.

You're certain this was marked as part of your path somewhere on the map, but you haven't had the chance to look at it since you left the cave. Sooner or later you'll be lost, you figure.

Luckily you've been here before. You have some mental notes about some of these homes, the few that you can remember visiting in a past rendezvous not too long ago.

You can't be sure any of these homes are safe to invade for a short while, but by process of elimination (and not wanting to walk much further), you decide on the least risky location in your general vicinity.

Of course, least risky in this case means you have no idea if there is a risk inside. This is a survival strategy you like to call Fuck Around; Find Out.

With each passing minute, the storm grows more powerful. The rain pours harder and faster. The thunder strikes louder and brighter.

You'd like to get away from this chaos for a minute. Even just to get your confirmations on where to go next.

And maybe also reapply your face paint. It's nearly all washed off.

The sound of shattering is loud as you bash in a window at the back of the house. You could have used the potentially unlocked backdoor right next to it for a quieter entry, but this option is objectively more badass and you know it.

(OOC: This might alert @amipipefan413yet and @casey-egbertnumber1...)

[amipipefan413yet]

(Pipe jumps, awoken by the sound. His first instinct is to check on Casey. They'd taken to falling asleep on the couch with her since the storm had been so bad, and only growing worse. She still seemed to be asleep, thankfully. He gently extricated himself from her grip and covered her back up. After waiting a moment to make sure she hadn't woken up, he began to head down the hall towards where he thought the sound had come from.)

what was that...

(He stopped in the dark hallway, listening for more sounds. It could have just been the storm, after all.)

@casey-egbertnumber1

(( your tag got interrupted by the ... i think! or it looks like it did on my end. unsure))

[casey-egbertnumber1]

(casey, who was skilled in pretending to sleep to stay up, had opened her eyes just slightly. keeping quiet, or as quiet as she could with the sound of her salamander feet padding down to follow pipe. she was smart enough to know something was wrong.)

[amipipefan413yet]

(The sound of paper could be heard from the utility room. Someone was definitely in there. Pipe took a deep breath; he wasn't letting Casey get hurt. Time to be brave. They opened the door to the room quickly and stepped in.)

Stop right there!!

[amicalibornyet]

...uHM.

HHHHEEEEEEYYYYYYYY! HEY. HELLO THERE. WHAT'S- WHAT'S uP. NEIGHBOR THAT I DEFINITELY LIVE NEXT TO. HI.

PAY THIS NO MIND. I AM HERE FOR ABSOLuTELY MORALLY CORRECT REASONS. I ASSuRE YOu.

[amipipefan413yet]

oh hell no

(Pipe crosses the room in the time it takes Caliborn to breathe after his last word.)

you picked the wrong house to break into

(They grab Caliborn's arm, intent on not letting him get away.)

[amicalibornyet]

(Text Action Description: Caliborn yells as he is grabbed, dropping the map.)

NOW JuST WAIT A FuCKING MINuTE. I DON'T WANT ANYTHING FROM YOu! HANDS OFF!!!

(He equips his crowbar, ready to strife if needed, but uncharacteristically, he doesn't immediately retaliate. He does still try to pull his arm away very aggressively though.)

[amipipefan413yet]

!!

(Pipe doesn't let go. He tenses at the sight of the crowbar.)

Now listen here. There is a sleeping child in this house, so I would appreciate it if you would calm down. I would also rather not fight if we can help it but I will if it comes to that.

What are you doing in John's house, Caliborn.

[amicalibornyet]

HAHA! YOu'RE TELLING ME TO CALM DOWN. WHEN THE FIRST THING YOu DID NIGH-INSTANTANEuOuSLY IS PuT YOuR HANDS ON ME.

(Caliborn keeps trying to pull his arm away, but it doesn't seem like he's strong enough.)

I WAS JuST MAKING A PIT STOP. TO CHECK MY LOCATION AND FIGuRE OuT WHERE I AM. BuT MY MAP WOuLD GET WET IF I TOOK IT OuT IN THE RAIN!

AND THIS HOuSE HAPPENED TO BE PRACTICALLY ASKING TO PROVIDE THE BRIEF SHELTER. I HAD NO IDEA IT WAS HIS. SO I MADE A STRATEGIC CHOICE, GET IN, READ MAP, GET OuT. THAT IS ALL.

WHICH IS WHY YOu SEE. I HAVE NO ILL INTENT HERE. PRESuMPTuOuS MuCH??? IF ANYTHING I AM VERY DESPERATE RIGHT NOW. SO LET GO OF MY FuCKING ARM ALREADY!

[amipipefan413yet]

I'm concerned for Casey's safety first and foremost above all else, and I've heard about the goings on online. I think accosting you is more than warranted.

What are you trying to accomplish? What is this map for?

(Pipe cranes their neck to get a glance, but doesn't reach for it out of fear of tearing it. It could provide key intel for John and the others.)

[amicalibornyet]

(At a glance it seems like a map of almost the whole country. In purple sharpie, there is a path lined out and multiple locations circled with notes written beside them. It's hard to see much else besides that.)

YOu SHOuLD CONSIDER THE POSSIBILITY THAT. MAYBE. JuST MAYBE! IT ISN'T ANY OF YOuR BuSINESS.

WHERE I AM GOING HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH YOu OR THE ADOPTED CONSORT. IT IS A MORE PERSONAL MATTER.

WHICH IS WHY ONCE AGAIN. I SAY. IT IS NONE OF YOuR FuCKING BuSINESS.

(Caliborn shoves his crowbar back into his sylladex and tries to reach for the map on the floor, but he can't quite reach it with the way Pipe is holding onto his arm. He's visibly frustrated by this.)

IF YOu WERE HOPING TO GET MORE INTERESTING ANSWERS OuT OF INTERROGATING ME. THEN MAYBE I'VE DISAPPOINTED YOu.

I GENuINELY DO NOT HAVE JACK SHIT PLANNED AGAINST YOu. OR HIM. OR HIS FAKE DAuGHTER.

GO AHEAD! DOuBT ME AND PRY. IT WON'T DO MuCH FOR YOu.

[amipipefan413yet]

she's not a fake daughter.

( Wind from the storm blows in through the broken window, the breeze sending the map closer to the door Pipe had entered from.)

You hurt several people, John included, while lying about the details of your kidnapping of Davebot and Rezi. And I'm just supposed to believe you? Give me a good reason to let you go and I'll pretend to consider it.

(( @casey-egbertnumber1 in case you need it ! ))

[amicalibornyet]

...MAYBE YOu AREN'T AWARE OF IT. BuT THIS ALSO COuNTS AS KIDNAPPING. WHICH MAKES YOu NOT MuCH BETTER THAN ME. AND ANYWAY. YOu HAVE NOTHING TO GAIN FROM KEEPING ME HERE.

BuT REALLY. HOW AM I SuPPOSED TO CONVINCE YOu TO LET ME GO. IF YOu ARE COMPLETELY SHuTTING OuT ANY REASON I VOICE? SO IF THAT ISN'T ENOuGH. THEN LET ME MAKE THIS SIMPLE: I WILL NOT BE NEEDING YOuR PERMISSION TO GO. ONE WAY OR ANOTHER.

YOu SAID YOu WOuLD RATHER NOT FIGHT. ESPECIALLY BECAuSE OF THE LIZARD IN THIS HOuSE. SO SPARE YOuRSELF THE TROuBLE!

(As he talks, Caliborn is cautiously inching closer to the window he broke, what little he can while still being limited to where his arm is held. It's not really clear what his goal is with that.)

[casey-egbertnumber1]

(casey, very loudly sneaking, inched closer to the laundry room. she peaked over through the door, squinting to see the two shapes in said room better.)

(she already knew one of them was pipe, it was clearly obvious to her with his tall stature, but what was that other short green shape? was pipe talking to a tortoise?)

blub blub...

[amipipefan413yet]

(Pipe was about to respond when they heard something behind them: the softest wet slap. His grip on Caliborn's arm tightened. He needed to do something fast.)

There won't be much of a fight.

(Hand still vicelike on Caliborn's arm, Pipe pulled his hand back, made a fist, and sent a punch flying with all his might.)

[amicalibornyet]

(Caliborn barely got a moment to realize what was about to happen, and the only reaction he could manage in time was a shocked expression and a flinch before the punch landed.)

(It was strong enough to send his head backwards alongside tiny drops of blood and make him lose his balance. He'd have fallen to the floor right then if Pipe's grip on his arm wasn't preventing that.)

(He stumbled left and right and failed to plant his feet back onto the floor, holding his head in his free hand. A pained wheeze is heard.)

Y... WH... HOW COuLD... I HAVe...

(Caliborn just barely looks up at Pipe.)

...pre...ve...

(He goes limp and his eyes fall shut. Out like a flickering light.)

(Turns out Pipe was right to say that there wouldn't be much of a fight.)

[amipipefan413yet]

...jegus i didn't think it would be that easy!!

(Pipe stared down at the unconscious cherub, unable to help but feel a little bit bad. He'd do it again, though, and he knew it. Now where to put him? And what about...)

Casey? I know you're back there. It's okay, you can come in; he's not gonna hurt you.

[casey-egbertnumber1]

(she waddled over, looking about now that she was much closer.)

isthat that gyy whi hury dad? >:(( whu ishe here!!!!!!!!

(very slightly, she kicked at his side to make sure he wasn't going to wake up any time soon)

..blub blub.......

[amipipefan413yet]

Yeah, it is. I don't know what he wants, but we'll make sure he doesn't hurt anyone else, right Casey?

Now, you know this house pretty well... where should we put him so he doesn't escape?

[casey-egbertnumber1]

hmmmmmmmmmm......... mnayve bathroom!!!! ogr msybe dadsroom? wevan take his stuuff out so hge doesnt beeak stuff!!!

iistill doht likebhim >:(

[amipipefan413yet]

I don't like him either, Casey... this guy sucks. The bathroom might be good. I'm worried about the window, though...

(Pipe crouches down and takes Caliborn's weapons. He captchalogues the map for safekeeping before lifting Caliborn off of the ground, a little bit lighter than he expected the cherub to be.)

We should let someone know we've got him, too.

(Pipe began to tote Caliborn towards the bathroom upstairs.)

[casey-egbertnumber1]

(she padded quickly after pipe, scurrying to her room to grab party streamers she had lying around. thankfully she thought of bindings though, neither of them i believe really know how strong a cherub of his size was.)

blub blub blub blub blub!!

[amipipefan413yet]

(Once in the bathroom, Pipe tied Caliborn up with the streamers and stepped back to look for a second. After a moment, he rummaged around in the cabinet until finding gauze; it wasn't going to hold Caliborn for long, but it was something.)

That oughta do until someone else can get here. I'm going to call some people.

...thanks for your help, but please be more careful next time, okay?

(Pipe patted her gently on the head.)

[casey-egbertnumber1]

ytayayaya!!!!! iweilll kkep watch :))))

🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[amipipefan413yet]

Do you think he's secure enough? I'm asking Karkat to come over, too, just in case...

[casey-egbertnumber1]

mmhmm!!!!!!!! nyy strwmers are made of threwds not paper!!!!
