[Karkat's really only seen people smoke in movies and such, so he quietly observes the other two for a moment. He's rather surprised Tavros even knows how to, but then again he puts it up to Gamzee's influence. He takes a drag for a moment before exhaling, coughing just a little bit but not splutters like it had been with the vodka. This was stupid, but they were teenagers and they were hurting. It was the only reason for being this stupid.

The alcohol is starting to make his head a little fuzzy, given he's almost done with his second drink and he sighs deeply, letting the potion glass dangle between his fingers.]

Shit, what was I even thinking, trying to date Harley? Past me was fucking stupid.

[Tavros coughs as he takes a drag from the cigarette. It's not nearly as bad as when he first smoked, but it still burns his throat quite a bit, and then he takes another drink from his vodka- which makes him cough a bit more, because the burn from both combined was pretty intense.]

K-Karkat, no-cough- don't, uh...I-cough-, I mean we came to get away from all that, uh, st-stuff. Don't talk about her!

[Another drink from the vodka because Jade. And feelings. And he's just a little too happy that they actually broke up- which makes him feel bad. But also oddly proud because he had sort of caused it. But mostly bad. And then he's coughing again because he took another drag from the cigarette.]

[Wow, like a one-two punch right to Gamzee's brain. First, because he'd encouraged Karkat to go after Jade, had genuinely thought they'd work out. Second because now that she's free, that means Tavros can go right on thinking he has a chance with the girl, and focusing all his time and attention on her.

The older boy throws back the rest of his vodka, pours himself another shot.]

Fuck that shit. [declares suddenly] Fuck all a that motherfuckin' shit right up the motherfuckin' arse with a spiked motherfuckin' dildo.

[That reaction makes Karkat snap his head up a little from where it was lowered, blinking just a little before he remembered the reason why he'd worked up the courage to ask Jade out in the first place. He downs the rest of his own drink to avoid his suddenly dry mouth and the anger he can feel boiling in the pit of his stomach among the guilt and self hatred.]

Fuck it with a fucking rusted wrench and take it dry up the fucking arse.

[Tavros freezes up. Oh god, he had to think of something to say, because they were totally expecting him to play along. Weren't they? They totally were. Oh, but it was just so mean...And, he didn't really understand what they even really meant. Uhhh.]

...Bull horns!! Uh, I mean. Um, that'd totally hurt, a lot- uh, e-especially in the, uh...eye?

[Gamzee blinks at Tavros ... then bursts out laughing. Not the mocking kind, but genuine pleased amusement.] Hell yeah, my brother! That would fuck a motherfucker's shit up!

[He hops off the table, and then does his peculiar dancing walk behind Tavros, so he can loop an arm around the Hufflepuff's shoulders from behind, and press his forehead into the younger boy's mohawk.] You always know how to say this shit. Both of you motherfuckers. You always got the right motherfuckin' words.

[The bullhorns comment makes Karkat blink a little before he laughs right along with Gamzee. It's actually more of a chuckle than an outright laugh, the Gryffindor certainly not loose enough for that yet. He hasn't laughed since...shit, probably when he was four. It's still certainly weird to hear Karkat laughing, given he hasn't in his whole three years in Hogwarts.

He takes another drag of his cigarette, coughing before shaking his head.]

Never thought you'd be one for skull fucking, Tav, but that's pretty good.

[Tavros was okay with the laughing, totally fine with Gamzee putting his arm around him putting his forehead in his mohawk. Sure that was a little awkward, but they were laughing- Karkat was laughing, it made him feel included! It definitely made him feel happy and he chuckled along with them- until Karkat's comment. He froze and his eyes went wide.]

Nooooo! No, no, no, uh! No! I didn't, I...no! Shit-! I-I...aaaaahhhhh.

[And then for lack of anything else to do he just brought the cup up to his mouth and chugged the remaining vodka because he didn't know what else to do.]

[Gamzee kept cackle/honking, and then he raised his head and kissed Tavros soundly ... on the ear. Which really, could probably easily be written off as just Gamzee weirdness.]

You need some more, Tavbro. [He tells the smaller boy solemnly, and then snags the other bottle (this one of cheap rye whiskey), and pours Tavros a generous measure.] Okay. So. My finest of fine motherfuckers. Who wants to play a motherfuckin' game?

[Okay, so maybe that hadn't been the smartest thing to say but fuck if Tavros wasn't cute with the way he stammered. Wait what? Where the fuck did that come from? Karkat immediately sobered up that thought by taking another drag of his cigarette, glancing away slightly before looking back at Gamzee with a raised eyebrow.]

Like what? Spin the fucking bottle?

[Tavros drew in a small breath when he felt Gamzee kiss his ear. And a shiver definitely didn't go down the part of the spine he could still feel. And his ear was definitely not tingling once Gamzee pulled away. And he totally didn't let out a nervous little laugh.

He allowed Gamzee to fill his cup back up, while he took another puff of his cigarette-cough- and at Gamzee's question, he was about to answer until Karkat spoke. Spin the bottle... Wasn't that something you played when girls were involved?? Or was he remembering wrong? He was probably definitely remembering wrong, because Gamzee had definitely assured them not making out would be involved. So it was pretty much okay to play spin the bottle, then.]

Uhhh, sure! Okay, um, let's play that, yeah! [After he speaks, he drinks some more.]

[Gamzee blinks, his wide indigo eyes puzzled.] Uh, I was gonna say Murder, Fuck, Kill. [pauses] No, wait a motherfuckin' minute, that ain't how it goes. Marry, Eat, Fuck? No! Marry, Fuck, Kill, that's it!

[He grins widely, briefly enormously pleased with himself for remembering the name of the game. Then he looks back at Karkat.] But we can play Spin the Bottle if you want, bro. [There was some reason that was a bad idea, he's remembering, but he can't for the life of him think what it is. Oh, well, it can't be that important, right?]

[Karkat doesn't even remember why he suggested Spin the Bottle, but there was definitely a bad idea about it. He raised an eyebrow, taking another drag of his cigarette with roll of his eyes.]

Fuck no, why would I want to kiss either of you fuckasses? [Never mind the fact that he'd already kissed Gamzee once before. He closed his eyes before leaning back on the musty old bed.] It was a lame suggestion anyway.

[Tavros laughed for some reason at Gamzee trying to remember the name of the game. He didn't know why it was funny, but it definitely was. He was taking a drink when Karkat spoke and it caused him to swallow it wrong, resulting in more choking.]

I-cough-, uhh, didn't know that-cough- it...I mean, uh...No,-cough- I wouldn't want to kiss you either, Karkat... [He tries to recover, tries to sound teasing.] Uhh-cough- you're a fuckass too... Um, I'm kidding-cough- by the way! Errr, -cough- about you being a fuckass...

[Gamzee takes a long drag off his cigarette, narrowing his his eyes at Karkat in a cool look. He almost says something nasty, almost lets that side of himself out, because he's drunk, even though he knows that's just Karkat being Karkat. The words are on his lips, Yeah, I guess I'm motherfuckin' shit compared to Jade, Dave sure seems to be thinking so, stung and mean, but then Tavros speaks up, and it all smooths away again.

He giggle-honks instead.] You motherfuckers couldn't handle my sweet lips! But I ain't gonna hold that against you, bros. So let's play the other one!

[It's probably a good thing Gamzee didn't speak what was on his mind. Even though he was well under way to being drunk off his ass and high as a kite, it would have still garnered some kind of reaction out of him. He opens his own eyes just in time to catch Gamzee's gaze before it vanishes, blinking a little before tilting his head in a shrugging motion.]

Who goes first?

[Tavros blinks, because at least he sort of knew how to play spin the bottle. This one he's not familiar with.]

Uhhh, how d'you play?

So, right, check it. [Gamzee jumps up on the table again, settling himself cross-legged.] One motherfucker be getting his think on, and he comes up with three other motherfuckers what everyone all knows what's playing. And then all the players in the room gots to make their decision - one they got to get all hitched up to, one they just got to get it on with, and one they got to do a low-down nasty to and end that motherfucker's life. And then they say it! And then it's some other motherfucker's turn!

[He grins at Karkat, slow and knowing.] You go first, pick the motherfuckers for me and my bro to all be analyzing our prospects with.

[Karkat raises an eyebrow at the grin sent his way before he sits back, crossing his arms loosely over his chest. He takes one last drag of his cigarette before he snuffs it out, turning his attention to Tavros.]

Okay. Fuck, marry or kill...Azula, Cassie...Graham.

[Tavros thinks hard about the rules of the game, tries to comprehend them as best he can when his mind feels kind of weird, as if it's hard to really cement anything in there fully. He feels a little lightheaded from the cigarette, but he takes another puff off of it before he then sets his mind to Karkat's question.]

Uhhhh... Um. Kill...Graham, uh, I guess. Marry Cassie and f- wait! No, oh my god, no. Um...Uh, I- uh-... Kill Graham, Marry, uh... Azula and...fuck Cassie. Because, uh... then Azula and I could divorce! I-I hope...

Marry Cassie, because she seems like a sweet little woman, and she probably makes bitchtits pies. Fuck Graham, because that motherfucker needs it, and kill Azula. Because same. [taking a pull directly off the whiskey bottle]

Now you pick who won, bro, and they go next!

[Jeez who to pick. Karkat rolls their answers over in his head before shrugging and glancing at Tavros.]

Your turn, man.

[Tav's eyebrows shoot up in surprise.]

Oh, uh... I-I won? Cool! Okay, let me think...

[He drinks more while thinking, running through everyone he can think of.]

Let's see, uh... Marry, Fuck or Kill, uh... Jude, Xion, Feferi!

Edited 2012-03-24 01:55 (UTC)

[Huh ... that's harder. Gamzee doesn't really want to kill any of those girls. Jude's kind of bitchy sometimes, but ... and anyway, he's sort of distracted by Tavros.]

Marry Xion, fuck Jude, kill Fef. Hey. [reaching out one long leg to lightly poke Tavros in the thigh with his toe] Bro. Bro. Say 'fuck' again.

[Tavros shrinks down slightly in his seat, eyes widening a little.]

U-uhh...F-f-fuck...! [And he can't help but giggle.]
