Chapter 11; Video/Filtered Video to Karkat

[tentacletrainer]

[[The feed flicks on to a view of four Pokemon. The first three are likely familiar to anyone who knows their trainer.

An all-too-cool Wooper, who currently seems rather put out and a little scratched up.
A primping and preening Pidgey, who seems quite proud of itself.
And a rather irritated looking Eevee, ruffled somewhat and glaring in the aforementioned Wooper's direction.
The fourth Pokemon, sitting quietly and watching the three with interest, is a Mareep.

From off camera comes the voice to confirm that yes, this is indeed Rose's team.]]

I am pleased to say we are finally making progress in level. Surprisingly, Dave has been putting forth a great deal of effort into his training. I am unsure as to why, but not complaining.

Woop!

That was a compliment. You should accept it as such.

Pilcrow, the Pidgey you see before you, has also gained a few levels of her own. Guillemot has earned the most, however. I am highly proud of her. I also have a new addition, of whom I have just caught. Halos the Mareep. He is quite the energetic one, and I am sure he will make an excellent addition to my team.

[[And now you get a view of the girl, who looks like she's recovering from a cold.]]

I have doubts of challenging the gym here before we leave, but I suppose that is not my duty as a breeder anyway, is it?

[[For everyone else, the feed ends here. However, Karkat gets one soon after.]]

[Filtered to Karkat]

...Karkat. Would I be able to ask a favor of you? It concerns living arrangements, as I have been unable to work for the past week due to both my illness and the incident with Dave, and therefor can no longer afford room and board.

Of course I intend to find work as soon as possible, but until then I have no where to stay...

[[Well just because he's removed his arms doesn't mean she's doing the same.]]

I am well aware you don't do it often. I'm surprised you'd be willing to give me one at all.

[[You're getting one final squeeze before she sits back and respects your personal space. Note to self number two: Never mention that he's hugging.]]

[Now have a swat to the arm.]

Special circumstances!

I'm not complaining, Karkat.

[[And her retaliation?

Purple kitty hat in your direction, Karkat.]]

[Frown.]

Stop throwing your damn hat at me, damn flighty broad.

[He plops it back on her head.]

Well if I had a pillow, I would use that instead.

[[Tugging it down on her head and playing idly with the earflaps!]]

Well, if we are done hugging, perhaps we could try movie number three, provided you are up for watching it.

May as well give it a shot. And no fucking derailing it this time, or I'm going to grab my pillow off the bed and smack you with it.

[[Careful Karkat. She is actually sticking her tongue out at you. She never does this, who knows what that might mean.

Getting up with a chuckle, she obediently moves to change the movies, sitting this time without comment, and doing her best to refrain from commenting.

Movie enjoyment time.]]

[Yeah, he's gonna gawk at that. Did her face break?]

[But now is movie time! Movie time is always good. He settles back against the couch, feeling more content now.]
