[wwistful]

WHO: Murdoc Donoghue and YOU
TONE: Fun, WHIMSICAL, horrifying
RATING: PG-13 and onward
WHEN: September 7th
WHERE:  The Lake.
WHAT:  After this Murdoc realised the children (and staff) of Hogwarts were in dire need of swimming lessons.
STATUS: Ongoing

[GATHER AROUND CHILDREN it's a warm summer day and the lake is perfect for diving into your sudden but inevitable deaths. You should all be dressed in your swimming trunks (which you clearly have don't even lie) because Murdoc sure is. He's determined to conduct this in the best manner he can, though he wasn't quite expecting the turn out to be so large. People who can swim are welcome to become his assistants because he could probably use the help.]

[Gamzee dips his head and presses his forehead to the other boy's, so only the Slytherin's long face and indigo eyes take up Karkat's vision.] Neverever. You gotta be trusting me.

[selfhatred]

[Panicking rust red glances up before Karkat shuts them tightly, taking a deep breath to calm himself down. His legs felt like they were going to fall off from so much kicking, but he knew if Gamzee did let go of him they'd be the only thing keeping him afloat this far out in the lake.]

[The taller boy's hands start to gently slide down Karkat's body.] Okay, bro, I'm gonna flip you over on your back. You keep hanging on, yeah? Then you can float.

[selfhatred]

[Karkat keeps his hands in a tight hold on Gamzee's arms, body jerking a bit in surprise when he feels the other's hands starting to move down.]

I can't.

Yeah, you can. Trust me, I got you. Promise I won't let you go under. [calmly] I'd never let you be sinking, you know that.
