#king gamzeebug

((She'd just, smack him upside the head and guilt trip him with an obnoxious amount of fish puns until he changes his mind or something. [I don't have the best grasp of feferi's character.] It /would/ be really sad if Karkat died, not only would he be gone for good, everyone else would probably be screwed too, considering how important he is. Urgh, the feels -and the chaos- man would gamzee be /pissed/.))

((Haha, I’d say she’s the “Team Mom” kind of gal, but with fish puns! I’m thinking the only alternative to death would be that his coding gets patched back together, but it’s so corrupted he can’t leave Sugar Rush… My heart can’t take this. :c

Gamzee’s just all over the place: maybe to get them separated, Sollux has to merge their code one last time, and Gamzeebug has the hardest time wanting to beat up Candy but NOPE. CAN’T. YOU’RE THE SAME PERSON.

Though Gamzee might be unhinged to the point where he doesn’t really care if he bashes in his own skull as long as Candy’s feeling it, it’s worth it.

Too many feels. Not enough space. Hhhh. Once Candybug’s separated, they’re not exactly sure what to do with Gamzee, seeing as he’s raging pretty badly at the moment. And we’ve learned what happens when he starts flipping out…

If we did go with the alternate timeline where Karat DOES manage to get his coding unscattered, I think SOllux would be the one to do it. He’s just floating in the preciiou2 code when he finds bits and pieces of red binary coding floating around and decides to throw ‘em together. Terezi’s the first to smellt he familiar mutant blood’s return  Cue, once glitched back, Nepeta POUNCE-TACKLE!, Vriska arm-crossed “HMPH” accompanied by eyerolling, and various other reactions.

But when they try to walk out of Sugar Rush… well… you know.))

((It'd be rather funny if he used Gamzee's nose as a springboard, complete with comically misplaced honking sound effect. I can imagine Sollux measuring the two options up while trying to make a decision. Crazy bug man, or crazy Gamzee? Bug man? Gamzee? The Bug man, most definitely. We could hope Karkat would be ok, but considering how things tend to go, it's unlikely.))

((I’m only, like, 3 weeks late. ;_; I have failed the one person who wants to discuss KGB. *Cries gently*

All of King Candy’s motions to avoid Gamzeebug would be, like, RIDICULOUSLY cartoony: just bunches of squash and stretch, haha!

He’d probably comment on all this duality in his life. “Alway2 two choiice2, ALWAY2.” He even thinks of the possibility of just LEAVING Gamzeebug there, maybe. Feferi snaps him out of it incredibly quickly.

Oh gosh, can you imagine someone’s holding him, not sure who yet, but then he just… glitches away… Says some sort of meaningful last quip and... pixelates. :’c))

[kingcandybyday]

(Some of the Trolls would be pretty pissed, with all the timing down they have to rush through while their game is being played. Terezi's updates would probably be hilarious "TH1NGS 4R3 ST4RT1NG TO SM3LL RE4LLY 1NT3NS3. 1T R33KS OF C4NDY 4ND D34TH UP H3R3." Gamzee'd be flailing his arms, trying to get thaat much closer so he could grab KC, buzzing his wings angrily and gouging big holes in the ground with his legs, until he glitches out long enough just to fall flat on his face or something.)

((Haha, definitely, If only Dave was there with his time shenanigans! >:T

I nearly spit out my drink at the line “IT REEKS OF CANDY AND DEATH UP HERE”. YES. HAHAHA. THAT IS A PERFECT DELIVERY.

After unclipping his wings, he accidentally LAUNCHES himself through the trees only to smack face-first right beside a petrified King Candy who skitters to his feet and runs past him. Either that, or Candy jumps comically up on Gamzee’s head as he smashes onto the ground face-first and slides down his back a la Flintstones, haha!

I think Amy and I came to the conclusion that eventually, Sol figures out that SOMEONE has to be merged with the cybug or the whole game will mess up with terrible coding. So he inevitably has to leave KC as a bug, because out of the two options, WHICH WOULD KILL LESS STUFF?

Karkat, though, I’m wondering if he’ll be okay…))

[kingcandybyday]

((Gamzee could swear as much as he wanted because the game sure as hell wouldn't be child friendly anymore, not that KC would even care since again "Haha, thith ith MY body now!.. Not that it wathn't before but, whatever!" *Gleeful laughter* My heart, oy. It'd be so hard for poor Karkat -and the others too probably "We want to help you but we can't!" He's got like an entire tree or something clipped through the middle of his body like "What the mother%^$& is this?! I'M STUCK!"))

((Dang straight it wouldn’t be kid friendly anymore. You know what would also be suspenseful? If this was getting timed down. Like, one hour until the arcade opens again… 59 minutes… 58… [Though I’m sure KGB wouldn’t pay ANY mind really] What’s a little potty mouth in comparison to being the greatest virus ever?! HEEHEE! 

And Terezi’s just reporting what’s happening to Feferi via non-existent earpieces like the Avengers. She gets all motherly and tries to tell Terezi to coax Karkat into standing up but from what she can see of his temporary coding in SOLLUX’S NEW DOMAIN FOR HIS EMPIRE the room, it’s not looking too good for him. Ugh, my heart.

HA. And King Candy can’t help but scream and laugh at the same time as he scrambles underneath a tree, just a little out of reach.

“DON’T MESSTH WITH THE KING!”

“*RoArS*”

“*High pitched screaming*”)) 

[kingcandybyday]

(Mmm, probably. Gamzee would be really upset/angry about the damage done to Karkat for a while, until KC uses the instability to get control again? Accompanied by some general jerkish big bad quip "We/I don't need him, we/I don't need anyone!" *Insert unhinged giggle/maniacal cackling here* -Which would give someone time to drag Karkat off to wherever they dumped Tav or something?- 'Whoop2' indeed, a few seconds later and KC'd probably be squished, or sent flying half way across the field.)

((Possibly, which raises the question who in the world would Gamzee be angry with. It’s not like he can fight King Candy or anything, what with being in the same body of course. *Stop hitting yourself!*

And that sounds awesome, yes. :0 I love it! He goes on a small villains rant, too as Gamzee’s just fighting against Candy, just frothing with anger. Occasionally his villainous rant breaks into screeches of profanity, but he doesn’t mind because “Wow, I’m in control because I’m better than you.”

You know what would be sad? If they couldn’t even touch Karkat: he’d have to get himself out of this situation. Just bite through the pain, like he usually has to do.

There’s this whole moment of clarity when KC realizes that they’re not the same person, and he just kinda… pauses for a moment. “Sthomething… Sthomething’sth not right…” *Insert Benny Hill chasing theme* Eventually, Gamzee’s just so glitchy, just so terribly programmed that he ends up clippign his wing on a tree branch or something and can’t move, but he’s still snarling and trying to grab KC while he’s just FREAKING OUT LIKE GET AWAY FROM ME OH AAA WHAT DID I DO TO DESTHERVE THISTH OTHER THAN ALL THE TERRIBLE THINGSTH I’VE DONE???))

[kingcandybyday]

((Pfft probably, kinda like a "Eww, thath grothh-ey... it actually worked." kinda thing. Nepeta would, be startled for a moment maybe, and then proceed to jump right onto his face or something? I was thinking about the shooshpaping myself yesterday and I don't think it'd work either, it MIGHT a little bit, but I recon it'd be pointless with all the other stuff going on like you said. Which would probably be really frustrating for Karkat, with it not working when they really need it.))

((I apologize, my weekend’s been hectic. :0 Anyways, yeah, like, the prissy, pompous part of him is completely disgusted while the Gamzee/cybug part of him is just “DO IT AND MOVE ON. SURVIVAL.”

And yeah, Nepeta just pauses - I MEAN paw-ses - for a moment before leaping onto his nose and trying to claw his face off or something, haha. Thank goodness Equius is busy holding back KGB or he’d probably scold her. BUT NOW IS NOT THE TIME.

Karkat might try at least once to pacify him, like when he’s down or something and he paps him, but King Candy starts fighting against Gamzee’s papification and even more hell breaks loose. [This may be the time when KGB starts glitching hardcore and KC swats him away, perhaps messing up his coding?] Or maybe after a second or third time that happens. The first is just a general “HITS YOU INTO SOMETHING HARD AND KNOCK THE BREATH OUT OF YOU” type of thing.

Oh, and I found the pic that Amy did where Sollux separates them, but in the wrong way.

WHOOP2.))

[kingcandybyday]

((KCB grumbling to himself while trying to buff the scratches out of his exoskeleton just came to mind, it'd take forever too because the buffer would probably be so darn small compared to him. Anyway, focusing on distraction first would probably be the plan, with extra help from Equius via many rocks to the head. Maybe Equius would be best at the tripping, along with Aradia, if they could punch/levitate KCB's legs out from under him when he tries to move?))

((He’s much too pristine to keep the scuffs on: royalty does NOT tolerate imperfection. And the Gamzee part of him might instinctively make him spit-shine it rather than formally buffing it out, haha. Once he kinda snaps put of that mentality, he’d just retract in disgust and be surprised it actually worked somehow.

Yeah, yeah, like he it keeps going back and forth from shots from the interior of the castle and down in the code room to the epic fight sequence going on. At one point, Equius might directly try to grab KGB’s leg and yank him off his feet. Maybe he was going for Nepeta and he just went NO! *STRONG GRAB* *STRONG PULL* And KGB just falls flat on his stomach with a loud OMPH, his teeth snapping just a few feet away from her face.

Aradia would probably have a fairly simple hold of him when he’s in the KC mentality but he might get so frustrated at all of this “m0th-3rfu—1n fl0at11n BuSiNESS!” that Gamzee starts to break out of her grip.

Karkat might, at some point, try - keyword try - to talk some sense into him, or at least calm him a bit. With all that’s going on with him, however - KC mentally fighting him, cybug telling him to kill, eat, multiply - I highly doubt shooshpaping it would work.))

[kingcandybyday]

((Agreed. That makes sense too, since he "uHH, lOOSES ENOUGH BODY PARTS, dURING ARCADE HOURS, tHANK YOU," Kanaya would probably expect that to work too, considering what she's been able to get the chainsaw into in the past -her own lusus' exoskeleton being one, though it was never said to be armored- Someone, maybe Eridan or Vriska? Might complain that "This would be easier if we were god-tier." at some point? With most of them being stuck on the ground without floaty powers, or a STRONG JUMP.))

((Haha, poor Tavros. :C And true: it might make a dent, or at least scuff up his “beautiful shine!”, accompanied by some sort of pun. Something corny like “I’m one tough cookie” or “a hard nut to crack”. Vriska would probably be the one complaining: Eridan might be down accompanying Fef and Sol to keep a close eye on them. *Side-eye* Don’t wwant any funny business.

They’d probably have to launch themselves off of each other [mostly Equius] just to get CLOSE with any weapons they had. Or maybe they just try to sweep his feet with quick attacks to make him lose his balance or something? I have no idea the effects of claws or sickles on cybug feet.

They might have to rely on the power of distraction while waiting for Sol to separate them rather than brute force with the size and powers of that thing. :O ))
