TT: Sucks to be you I guess.

TT: Or sucks to be your phone more like.

TT: Sorry it took the metaphorical nose dive. Well, literal nose dive right into the pavement pool that’s the sidewalk.

TT: Or whatever it hit.

TT: Should have beat that guy up like you did me. You can do a number on someone after all.

"Fine, I’ll go with you" he sighed and relented, following her along and down the hall to their class. He shrugged when the teacher asked him for a pass and sat down at his usual spot. "So why exactly did we decide to come to class?" He raised a blonde eyebrow at her.

sleepygnostic

She turns on her heel, starting down the hallway with purpose in her stride. Once asked for an excuse she sighed and an explained her fall from grace, in the center of the hall. After she was done offering up her story, she slid into her seat, pulling out her supplies for the class.

"We came to class because, I for one, like school!" she grumbles.

Lesbians. (@lilliesandrifles)

A certain tuxedo-clad Rose Lalonde is perched on a chair near the photo booth, waiting rather impatiently. Dances aren’t her most prized activity to go through with, especially on such a ‘romantic’ holiday - in all truth she’s probably just being selfish. It’s a habit she’s picked up uncomfortably well when to came to Jade, making anniversaries and holidays times that she’d rather experience with her and only her.

Nevermind that, though - at the moment she actually spots her date in a light green pantsuit congruent to her own lavender one. A grin breaks out on her face slightly and she gets up, heading over to meet her halfway. “I take it you got held up with your botany homework?”

sleepygnostic

Jade ducks in, a purple corset on her wrist and sneakers on her feet. She fiddles with a box behind her back as she scans the room for Rose. She blinks, not quite used to the lack of glasses on her face, or the contacts in her eyes. Once she catches sight of her date, looking totally smashing in a lavender pantsuit, she snickers and waits for her to head over.

She leans over, kissing her cheek and handing her the small box, which contained a small purple collar. The tag read 'Mr. Whiskers' and was actually for a cat Jade had adopted for Rose as a gift. Honestly, she was really not looking forward to cleaning cat hair off of her clothes but she was sure Rose's reaction would be worth it.

CG: ALLOW ME TO TELL YOU WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS WHILE YOU ARE SLEEPING, ESPECIALLY IF THE PERIOD FO TIME YOU DESIGNATE TO ATTEMPTING TO REST ENOUGH TO KEEP YOURSELF FROM GETTING SICK.

CG: OF COURSE, I WILL FIRST NEED TO ACTUALLY THINK OF SOMETHING.

CG: …

CG: OH LOOK, IT SEEMS THAT EVER TIME I TRY TO THINK UP A REASON WHATEVER WRITING SLATE MECHANISM EXISTS IN YOUR THINK PAN KEEPS COMING UP AS BEING COMPLETLEY BLANK.

CG: THIS MUST BE A COMPLETE COINCIDENCE THAT HAS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH THE POSSIBILITY THAT NOTHING EVER HAPPENS AROUND HERE, ESPECIALLY DURING THE SLEEP CYCLE.

He slid them on her face with a bit of an amused grin “I’m pretty sure you’re already late.” He then pointed up to the clock showing about thirty seconds to get to class. “Wanna skip with me instead? We can just say we got sick … you know the cold’s been going around recently.”

sleepygnostic

She frowned at him, sticking her tongue out in distaste once she could see. "We're not that late! If you actually wanted to make it, you could, but, you don't, I think!" she grumbled, hopping up on her own. "We're transplanting in botany, today, though!" she pouted, tapping her foot and crossing her arms.

CG: HOW IS SLEEP SUPPOSED TO BE BORING?

CG: LAST TIME I CHECKED, WHENEVER I DARE TO FALL ASLEEP, I GET MORE SO-CALLED “EXCITEMENT” THAN I WOULD IF I JUST STAYED AWAKE

CG: AND STARED AT MY LAPTOP SCREEN FOR HOURS ON END AS MY EYES GRADUALLY DECAY UNTIL THERE IS NOTHING THERE

CG: ATTEMPTING TO FIND SOME FORM OF ENTERTAINMENT THAT IS EXCITING BUT POSITIVE AND NOT HORRIFYING IN ANY POSSIBLE WAY

CG: UNLIKE THE “EXCITEMENT” I GET WHENEVER I HAVE TO AUDACITY TO ATTEMPT TO REST MY THINK PAN

CG: IF I FALL ASLEEP AT ALL.

sleepygnostic

CG: FINE.

CG: I GUESS IM JUST SURPRISED THAT SOMEBODY MANAGES TO GET ANY SLEEP IN THIS PLACE WHEN IT IS SO LOUD IN THE DORM ROOMS AND IMPOSSIBLE TO SLEEP WHEN TEACHERS DECIDE TO ASSIGN SO MUCH WORK AND GIVE SO MANY TESTS INSTEAD OF GIVNIG STUDENTS TIME TO ACTUALLY GET THIS THING KNOWN AS REST

CG: WHEN MOST STUDENTS WHO WEREN’T BLESSED WITH THE ABILITY TO SLEEP ANYWHERE HAVE DIFFICULTY SLEEPING ANYWAY.

CG: WHY DON’T YOU PASS OUT A FEW OF THOSE EXTRA HOURS OF PEACEFUL SLEEP YOU’VE BEEN GETTING, HARLEY?

CG: MAYBE THAT WOULD IMPROVE THE MENTAL CONDITIONS OF MOST OF THE HUMANOIDS IN THIS PLACE.

sleepygnostic

GG: maybe you should try doing it earlier karkat!!

GG: i dont really *know* your work schedule but i do most things right when i get them!!

GG: and i do a loooot of other things! which would make that more difficult!

GG: id totally send you this crazy amount of sleep if i could :( i could do so much stuff if i wasnt sleeping!!

GG: not that sleeping isnt super great or whatever!! but it gets boooring!

Out of the corner of her eyes, a petite girl struggling with her baggage, weighing her down and causing her to take quite the spill. Kanaya moved through the bustling crowd, wincing as someone knocked into her. Not on purpose, or at least she hoped. Her thoughts lingered to the disorderliness of the whole system. It was like a conveyor belt, in a way, one side goes only one way, the other side moves in the opposing direction. Its difficult to travel in any other direction than forwards or backwards.

She meets up with the girl, sharing a similar eye color, the fallen maiden being one with a lighter shade. The elegant auxiliatrix squatted down, her red skirt falling to the ground, curtaining her legs as they curled underneath her bottom. Kanaya gracefully swept up some of her books, the ones she hadn’t found. She eyed her round spectacles, grabbing them as well. They were a little bent and askew, which created a frown to her face, it was really a cruel system for those lower on the hierarchy. Well, at least the ones not as familiar with it. The runts.

She collected the girl’s things and briskly rose from the ground, offering her belongings for her to take, the lady’s glasses in a different hand, placing them on her nose as she tilted down to do so. She suspected that she couldn’t see clearly without them. She looked distraught and lost at the disappearance of them.

"Are you okay? That was quite the spill." Kanaya spoke, finally asking about the victim’s state of health. She always ended up helping someone. Which was one of her weak points. Though nothing made her happier than aiding a damsel in distress, whoever that may be.

Jade quickly slips into a panic when she has most of her books, but not her glasses. She swears up a storm under her breath, every word out of her mouth ending up a 'Fuck!'. She sighs to herself, grumbling something about her clumsiness and what a jerk that douche who laughed at her was.

She doesn't even notice the girl in her year tracking down her glasses and she sure as hell doesn't notice how damaged they are. She was still trying to shove books back into her messenger bag when the other swept by.

"Thank you!" she says, smiling slightly at the return of her glasses. She notices they don't fit quite right, so she takes them off again to inspect them. "God damn it!" she whispers, before putting them back on with a shake of her head.

"I'm alright! No blood, no foul, right?" she jokes, laughing under her breath. "Just took a little tumble, nothing major! Thank you for finding these, though," She points to her lenses, grinning. She hops up, brushing her skirt off and nodding to herself.

"You're.. uh.. Kanya right?" she asks, glancing down at a green reminder on her finger. "Rose said something about you joining us at Crocker this year!"

Dave happened to be striding down the hall, hoping that if he was two minutes late to bio that the teacher wouldn't hammer him on the important of plant pollination yada yada. In any case, this happened to be when he saw jade trip over her own feet and her glasses slide and land in front of a couple of idly chatting people that obviously weren't from this planet. He scooped them up with a wave and then reached for a frantic jade "hey. hey. Yo. Chick. I have your glasses. Calm yourself Harley"

sleepygnostic

Jade sighed inwardly, still scuttling around after her textbooks. Half of these were actually hers! What class would need an advanced botany book at this school? Hell if she knew, but she was pretty sure such a course didn't exist. She reached up to rub her eyes, noticing the lack of glasses. "Fuck!" she mumbled, gearing her valiant search towards her lenses. Jade froze up, prepared to jerk away when her cousin's boyfriend strolled over. "Oh, uh, thank you, Dave!", she said, shrugging. "D'ya think I could have those glasses, so I can get to physics on time?"

Jade sighs to herself as she again readjusts her stack of textbooks and tries to stretch her hand. She shakes her head as if clearing it as she strides down the hallway, trying to hustle for her next class. It’s a decision she quickly regrets as she trips over her own feet and goes tumbling down. The first thing she hears is the loud thud of her text books scattering, then the sound of her glasses sliding across the floor. Jade instantly freezes and begins scrambling for them, running into several other students.
