anyway karkat is gonna walk over and like... hold out his note... it is nicely folded. he only decided to give up on the gossip girl quiz book idea because hsm made him believe in communication and not giving up on your love and all that although it SEEMS TO BE GOING REALLY FUCKING BADLY RIGHT NOW ACTUALLY ]
[ it was two times without i love you!! coming after the whole, you know, dave sharing thing. he doesn't want to break up in person? he'd rather this be done online??? ]
What is it.
[ like he's pretty sure he knows, but also, he is wrong ]
[ because even though it's not a breakup karkat has no idea how dave will react to all of these Feelings dumped on him so he like. did not want to be around in case dave reacted super badly to it. ]
[ ok great dave has the note now he just has to like.
open it.
shit he really wants to grab rose and make her read it to him but that is probably not a thing he can do.
also oh my god karkat it's a huge ass note so this will take a while and of course dave's expression will be the studied neutral it usually is when he's censoring himself. ]
ok shit dave should...have something to say. right. mostly he pretty much wants to reiterate that karkat doesn't have a reason to apologize since he still thinks his feelings were Pretty Bullshit despite rose insisting they weren't, but. the note says not to say that? even though he thinks it. also he needs to work on his brain to mouth filter by just. not saying the immediate thing.
shit what the fuck does he say. ]
Did you mean to say I always look like a model, or did you just do that on accident like with your lip obsession?
The point is, they're not ill-fitting by nature, you just don't want to cop to that shit.
[ he rolls his eyes. ]
I don't think you think being happy means we don't fight and everything is always perfect. I think your definition probably means we fight less than we have been and I mostly think y'all think happy should involve being happier than I usually have been recently. I...
[ he starts folding up the note, matching the creases perfectly. ]
...Won't argue about the shit you said not to, I guess, so. Yeah. Thanks?
[ he kinda just kicks at the ground, embarrassed. ]
Also I thought I made it pretty clear that I have no intention of breaking up with you? So. Next time don't leap to that conclusion even if I'm angrily seething over the fact that you wouldn't open the fucking quiz book.
[ he has no idea what to do with this note. is he supposed to keep it? he kept john's birthday note years ago though it wasn't on him when he got here. but this is different.
after a moment's deliberation he drops it into his sylladex to worry about Later, whenever later comes. ]
If you aren't doing anything, you can help by putting up like, decorations in other locations. Dirk gets all judgey if I do the loop thing, so. Rose is supposedly helping me but I'm not sure if she's actually helping or just flirting with Kanaya.
[ and he is not asking because rose can do what she likes tbh as long as she seems content. ]
[ he says it a little too quickly which makes this all the more embarrassing? but he is still pretty sure he did something very badly here( other than making dave think he was getting dumped), so. helping decorate might help make things a little better. maybe. ]
Uh, ok. Do you have a preference on where you decorate, because we need like streamers and cobwebs and shit in a lot of rooms still? Rose is supposedly taking the library and most of the living areas, I was doing the first floor...
Rec room? Do you got space in your 'dex right now?
[ for decorations, he means. ]
Most of the shit's in the dance floor room, so just grab what you want and go with it is what we have been doing? ...We...probably could be more organized about this, couldn't we. Oh well. It's more or less gettin' done?
Ok, I dub thee sir in charge of the rec room and apparently throwin' shade at the entertainment overlord?
[ rude ]
Anyway we'll meet up later for dinner or whatever when we actually, like, work our way to finishing all of this. Or today's portion. I guess we still have tomorrow, too.

If it was well organized than it wouldn't be a party planned by you. But sure, the rec room is fine.
