yeah. dave just. suggested they. talk about something. granted his voice sounds strangled a little but. feel special since this is the only time so far his haphazard attempts at doing the Talking Thing with dirk have carried over to anyone else at all. it's not at all going to be a regular thing, although he's offered to talk about other shit with karkat before - just. usually karkat's shit instead of shit that is relevant to both of them or related to solely dave. ]
[ the moment of silence that follows is telling, because karkat is so surprised at dave actually. offering to have a Discussion that it shuts him for for a couple of seconds there.
again, karkat is thankful that dave can't actually see him right now. ]
Nnnno. Don't you have more important crap to be worried about? I'm just being my usual dramatic self, it doesn't matter. You should try to figure out how you're going to explain your sexuality bullshit to John.
[ karkat will probably regret not accepting the offer later on, since he is all about feelings jams, but tbh it took him by so much surprise that his immediate reaction was to say no.
they are so good at this. ]
Ok why don't you practice on me? Pretend I am John Ebgert. Imagine that I am doing that stupid face of his, you know the one.

[ forget about john for a second actually. ]

[ he's not pressing the discussion angle because lmao just offering to have one without being badgered into it is a pretty big thing, but. ]
But ok yeah I should probably make a legitimate game plan so I don't say something dumb.
[ spoiler alert he'll be saying something dumb ]
