( the context is relatively ridiculous. Yuri is standing there, showering, as people who enjoy cleanliness and possess hot running water at no extra cost to their monthly bills might do. there, under the stream of blessedly warm water, a thought occurs.

a remembrance.
he jolts forward, pulling back on the shower curtain and racing across linoleum and swept (but not recently polished) wood floor to the counter, dripping water as he goes. this is fine. he probably needs to mop anyway, and he just remembered what the hell he'd been planning to send to this guy earlier that day.
which is how it comes to be that Yuri Plisetsky is idly thankful he doesn't have a roommate at the moment, considering he's standing buck naked in his kitchen dripping all over the place and frowning as his phone half fails to recognise his finger tapping on the surface when he's texting Karkat the following: )

[ On the morning of the 13th, one day before Valentine's Day, a sudden text message appears from a Souji Seta. Perhaps you've talked to him before. Perhaps you haven't. Perhaps you're wondering why the hell you are receiving a text at six in the morning but look, let's not sweat the small details. Pay attention to the larger ones, like the contents of this very important message: ]
Hello.
Through the tides of fate, you have been chosen to participate in this year's Valentine's Day event: Blind Dating. It is believed that no one should be alone for such an important day and as such, you have been paired up with another lonely soul.
Your match is with Yosuke Hanamura. Please contact them to plan out your date for tomorrow.
However, if you and your partner do not know what to do, there will be a booth in Recollé Square for the sole purpose of assisting unsure or confused participants of the event. There will be date suggestions, booklets of pick-up lines, and refreshments.
Happy Valentine's Day.

[It's February 14th! Early enough before the blind dates have started, Anya was busy.
By the time Karkat makes it to class, his gift will be sitting at his desk. He'll find a little pouch filled with heart-shaped macarons, about 6 or 7. There's a neat little card written in Anya's neat and short hand-writing:]
Happy Valentine's Day!
Please know that I adore you too.
- Anya ♡
[The macarons have their own little messages instead of the classic Sweetheart Conversations, customized based on whoever Anya's giving them to. This batch reads:]
FRIEND
LOVE
KIND
THANK YOU
[There's an extra one that she was definitely giggling as she painted since the lines are just a little less clean:]

Turns out vomit takes off spray tan.
[Who the hell had that been intended for anyway? There was a solid chance she'd been trying to text either Emilie or Arlene, but god only knew. Either way, whether because she'd been drunk on Mardi Gras or thanks to the app, this was now Karkat's little problem.
Enjoy.]

[ it's around 11pm when karkat's phone buzzes with a text from an unknown number. This Is Fine ]

I took a long moment to reflect on this message and wonder if I should just delete it and pretend it never happened.
Instead, I am going to throw a few questions out there. Feel free to pick and choose which ones you want to tackle.
1) Who the fuck is this?
2) A quart of mac and cheese??
3) Why are you even surprised that someone would want you to elaborate on that???
4) Seriously what is with all the wrong numbers lately????

[Did Karkat have a mental image of his kendo instructor as a stern young woman with no sense of humor, never smiles, and basically is a human version of a sword? Because if they've exchanged numbers at any point, he'll get a text from her number. She only ever texts him if the dojo is going to be closed for some reason, so this is... probably? important??]
もふもふワンチャン！！
[If Karkat can read moon runes, it literally just says "fluffy puppy."]

( Strange. Haven't people been talking about getting these? You'll find a delivery from Retrospec at your home, or at some place you often frequent. Thank you, says Retrospec. For all you do.
Inside the box there is a single feline plushie. Tied around its neck is a bit of ribbon with a note: ♥ From Yuri's Angels. There is nothing else. The box from Retrospec, the plush kitty, and that note.
Congratulations. You are the lucky mistaken recipient of a Yuri's Angel Cat Plush. What a wonderful day this must be!!! )

[ after all of the furry discussions this kind of feels like a call out post tbh??
karkat stares at the plush and then at the box. he considers that this might just be another weird retrospec thing, but he does not feel that odd sense of attachment to this small cat like he did the last time he got something from the company. huh.
he then squints at what's on the ribbon. HUH. he only knows one yuri. ]
He is such a fucking furry. [ he says, while filming his cats swat at the plush's tail. he's going to send the video to yuri. ]

A sexy babe was home alone bc her parents fucked off to the movies and didnt take her because movie tickets are fuckin expensive and she walked downstairs to go and get some midnight snacks because FUCK YEAH midnight snacks like she did every night bc it doesnt matter if youre home alone, midnight stacks are ETERNAL. Nothing was there, but she made herself a sundae like two feet high and covered it in whipped cream and chocolate chips and cherries and those sweet tapioca balls that burst in ur mouth and went back upstairs to eat dessert in bed like the slob she is, basically sending out an embossed in gold leaf invitation to all ants in the universe to come n get it. At six am she woke up to find a little girl standing at the foot of her bed. The little girl was like sis why the fuck did you do this who the FUCK eats a sundae in bed there's choco syrup on my CAT oh MY GOD denise you ALWAYs do this i FUCKIN SWEAR, and then some ants with machine guns bust through the door and started shooting laser beams and they had to dive out the window in their jammies while their mom screams that its a school day and they start their sci fi action video game saga that can be bought on steam for 99cents during the holiday sale. Send this to 3 people or else around 6am in the fuckin mornin you'll become allergic to sundaes and then murdered by giant ants who fuck aliens and their LASER CANNON.

A bit of advice, in case your refrigerator's contents have begun to dance for your horrification. Bananas, pineapples, grapes, kiwi, plums, these will not smile at you when you try to eat them.
If you are lucky enough not to understand what I am talking about, be prepared for your next grocery visit to be interesting in the produce aisle.

[ a package is delivered to karkat's home, wrapped in cat-themed gift wrapper. inside it are an array of cat toys, especially the ones he was looking for the last time they discussed this. they're all of good quality and guaranteed to last a while with his fluffy overlords. hopefully.
its from ainsley, judging by the address on the package. and the fact there's a note found among the items. ]
Hope this is purrfect for you! Pawlease forgive me for the delay but I had to make sure the things in the package are just meownificent for you and your cats. Well that and I have a bad habit of procatstination hitting me. If you need anything else, let me know. I'm always happy to help.
Take care!
Ainsley Meowodora.
P.S. Did you get my puns? I did my best to make sure they were pawsititvely funny! :3c

[ he actually face palms when he reads it, and then does it again because of course aisnley had to add that last part, as if he would somehow miss all of the puns otherwise.
god.
why is she like this.
she will get a text an hour after he gets home that is literally just a picture of a few of the kittens playing with the toys. ]

Alice Penelope Drake I'm told you're the person to talk to about the RH prom.
Alice Penelope Drake I'm signed up as one of the chaperones so I thought I'd text and ask if there was any help needed beforehand or if I just need to show up.

Karkat Vantas I mean technically you could just show up if you want and just do whatever the fuck it is chaperones do.
Karkat Vantas Shake your fist threateningly at students standing too close??
Karkat Vantas I won't say no to any actual help though.
