CEB: wait… CEB: are you saying that vriska is interested in me? CEB: like, romantically?
I think she thinks she likes you, the same way she thought she liked Tavros. In her eyes, you're a potential replacement for him, which is a dangerous position to be in.
In short: yes. But watch out!
CTG: do you like her CEB: well, like i said, i thought she was pretty cool… CEB: kinda bossy! but also pretty friendly. CTG: yeah ok CTG: but i mean CTG: anything more than that CTG: like CTG: if earth wasnt destroyed and she werent in some other universe on a planet full of unspeakable frothing dipshits CTG: and she was on earth visiting your town or something CTG: would you want to ask her to go see one of your dumbass movies
Dave is actually helping John talk through his feelings, which is sweet as all hell. His instincts around this are surprisingly good, too - it probably would help John to separate his feelings about Vriska from his current situation.
Try to divorce yourself from the session, just for a second. You're not John the Player - you're John the teenager, and a girl likes you.
What do you think about her?
CEB: i don't think i have ever actually liked a girl before in that way, so i am not really sure what i am supposed to feel or do…
Grew up in a small town in Suburbia, USA.
Raised by a single father who struggles to relate to him.
No extended family to speak of, unless you count the ecto-sister he learned about an hour ago.
Has a social circle consisting of three online besties, and never mentions any IRL friends.
Uses stilted phrases like 'not a homosexual', and is so confused by his own feelings that he can't identify a crush.
John Egbert is a very sheltered kid, is what I'm getting at. I wouldn't be surprised if Karkat and Vriska were the first people who ever had crushes on him. This is all completely new to John, and I don't think has the slightest idea how he's supposed to respond.
Dad's great, but if John asked him for relationship advice, he'd tell his son to get a decent aftershave and a well-pressed suit. He's flying blind, and things will only get more complicated from here on in.
CTG: did one of the human ladies reject you ?CG: OF COURSE NOT. CTG: how did it go did you stand in a quadrant like you were playing four square CTG: holding a bucket full of flowers or slime or whatever and jade was like no thanks bro
I mean, he might have started with John, but he seems to hate Jade quite a lot, too.
We now know this was after his confession to John. Maybe it was a rebound?
CTG: or maybe it was a guy who rejected you ?CG: FUCK OFF. CTG: haha wow bingo CTG: see how i look right now thats a poker face might want to take some notes ?CG: I SEE NOTHING BUT A COWARD BEHIND DARK EYEWEAR CLEARLY DESIGNED FOR WOMEN AND A PAIR OF IMPUDENT LIPS PURSED SO TIGHT IT'LL SOUND LIKE AIR SQUEALING OUT OF A BALLOON WHEN I PUNCH YOU IN THE GUT.
Pursed lips?
Karkat. No, Karkat, look at me. Do you have a little crush on all the human kids?
You do, don't you. Oh my god, you do. Just stay away from Rose, or Kanaya will chainsaw you in half.
?CG: AND JOHN, PURELY HYPOTHETICALLY, IF ONE OF US IN THE FUTURE DOES MAKE SOME SORT OF SOLICITATION YOU DON'T QUITE UNDERSTAND… ?CG: BECAUSE OF PERHAPS SOME CULTURAL DIFFERENCES ?CG: I MEAN NO ONE IN PARTICULAR HERE ?CG: MAYBE TRY TO UNDERSTAND THAT PERSON MIGHT NOT BE THINKING TOO CLEARLY AT THAT MOMENT
Karkat, you're killing me here. I'm dying. You don't get any Boondollars from killing a liveblogger, Karkat.

Certe notti sono fatte per la tortura, o la riflessione, o il sapore di solitudine.
bágoa de luz
@noor-kazem: Os ríos brancos do sol, os ríos negros feitos de noite, fermosos e terribles, fluíndo ao seu longo a pel dun sono profundo, un verso fermoso -da poesía infinita do tempo, escrito nas marxes dos meus muros e no medio. dos soños e da vida,...
@henricoudoux: Le coeur humain ne peut contenir qu'une certaine quantité de désespoir. Quand l'éponge est imbibée, la mer peut passer dessus sans y faire entrer une larme de plus.
