31 // video ; backdated to earlier in the day, like.. noon?

[shadowdive]

[Today's feed takes place in the dark, or at least, it's dark until the curtain opens just enough from the breeze of the open window, to blind viewers. The light didn't blind just those watching though, because there's a tired, cranky sounding groan emitting from someone nearby. Once the light meter in the screen peters out to normal, it's easier to see that the gear is on the floor, and there are a couple bodies nearby.

Sure, the Pokemon had gotten up and left their trainers by now to sleep, but... well. This is the result of a Swablu being told to sing to put Vanitas to sleep. There's a hand groggily patting around until it lands on the gear, and it's dragged slowly across the floor.. until lifted and there's Vanitas, one eye closed tight and the other squinting.

Needing to pull it back to actually see what time it is, it reveals that there's a head of dark hair tucked at Vanitas' shoulder. With his thumb over the red light, unfortunately, Vanitas is none the wiser to the feed recording.. but then again, he still looks a bit disgruntled when he see's what time it is. Shoving a bit at the sleeping figure on him, Vanitas drops his hand with the gear back to the floor.]

Karkat.. wake up. It's freaking noon..

[While it's hard to see, there's a disgruntled sound coming from the once troll, an arm lifting and a middle finger extended. Growling, Vanitas lifts his hand with the gear in it and lightly smacks Karkat in the back, ending the feed.]

We weren't! He fell asleep on me, that's all! [He's more embarrassed at this situation being caught on camera, rather than that he was cuddling with Karkat. That isn't the point though-]

[video]

[machinamonkey]

Vani? That's cuddling.

[video]

[shadowdive]

[Nghghghghh going to hold his face some more; even his ears are taking a pink shade.]

[video]

[machinamonkey]

Why're you so embarrassed?

[video]

[shadowdive]

I didn't know till now that this was plastered all over the network for people to see. Not so much that we were sleeping, but being seen like that is.. [Pausing, he wants to say 'private', but Vanitas is caught in a moment of wondering why he wants to say that. They were just sleeping, and it's not like it's anything else.

Cuddles aren't bad.]

... I don't know.

[video]

[machinamonkey]

Did you guys just start really dating or something?

[video]

[shadowdive]

No. I don't know what 'dating' is. I just know the crap that princes and princesses did together because it was a recurring thing on most of the worlds I went to.

[video]

[machinamonkey]

Oh! Dating's, like, being romantic but not necessarily sappy with someone you like.

[video]

[shadowdive]

[Rikku, you are present and accounted for witnessing Vanitas' derpy expression.] Romantic? [They never do anything like from those romcom movies Karkat watches all the time.]

[video]

[machinamonkey]

Yeah, like holding hands for no reason, kissing sometimes, going out to a private dinner, cuddling, that kinda thing!

[he's adorable]

[video]

[shadowdive]

Never done that stuff other than the.. cuddling, I guess. [Eating together for meals is so normal that what is supposed to be private about it?] We ate breakfast together? He made pancakes. [Somewhat asking if that counts because so unsure about this dating thing 8( he just got used to the idea of having friends, what is this next level you speak of.]

[video]

[machinamonkey]

That would be a dating thing most of the time! Not all the time, since dating and romance is mostly emotional and how you feel for the other person.

[video]

[shadowdive]

He's my best friend. [And?]

[video]

[machinamonkey]

Is that all he is to you? D'you, like, ever wanna kiss him or just...be near him?

[video]

[shadowdive]

Never kissed anything in my life. I like being near him though.

[video] so the mun is a relationship fail bomb and hopefully it doesn't show XD;;

[machinamonkey]

Have you ever blushed when he touched you, even if it was on accident?

[video] IT'S OKAY IT'S STILL BEAUTIFUL.

[shadowdive]

Not really. [Though there was the wake up call and being perfectly content to stay that way.. quiet a moment, he shakes his head then to correct himself.] No, thinking about it more.. I feel warm sometimes. My face feels warm, like it's doing now. [He doesn't know it's called blushing really, or that he's doing it to such a degree that his ears were colored too.]

Or when we woke up and got up and stuff, my shoulder was warm where he had been laying. [Mumbling that last bit, it was kind of a detail he.. wanted to keep to himself, somehow.]

[video]

[machinamonkey]

[She grins a little]

I think you might have a tiny little crush on Karkat, Vani, if you guys aren't already dating.

[Which...kinda sucks. She likes Vanitas!]

[video] SORRY TO BREAK YOUR HEART RIKKU BAWW kfljgksjh

[shadowdive]

[Shaking his head gently, he's really stuck on the word 'crush', and it shows in the derp in his expression again. After a few moments, he grunts and hunches his shoulders a little, thinking.] Not already dating.

[video] sadly this is a usual thing for her ;o;

[machinamonkey]

Maybe you two should talk. It might help you get things straightened out.

[video] /pats

[shadowdive]

Yeah, maybe. [Or he can keep his feelings to himself for a bit longer, not sure how to even bring this sort of thing up.]

[video]

[machinamonkey]

Lemme know how it goes, okay?

[video]

[shadowdive]

Why? [He's all but tucking his face into the collar of his shirt, at the moment.]

[video]

[machinamonkey]

Because I wanna know! If it goes well, I wanna congratulate you guys, but if it goes bad, it's my duty as a friend to kick Karkat's butt.

[video]

[shadowdive]

You don't have to do any of that. [Though lol seeing a skinny girl flip Karkat around might be kind of funny. That isn't the point though, he wouldn't really want Karkat actually getting hurt.]
