[Video] | January 29th

[The video is slightly shaky in Tavros' hands, and he's looking down into the camera with a pleading stare.]

Gamzee? You're still here, right? Did you get lost, do you need help? I can, come find you, just, answer me, okay?

Gamzee? Come on...

[He rubs one eye with the heel of his hand before setting down the communicator with the feed still on, now a bland view of the ceiling. There's some rustling sounds, and when he picks up the comm again he has his coat on.]

Okay, um, if you're busy that's fine, just let me know if you see this, please, if that's okay with you...

[He stands there a moment, stare going vacant, before he shakes himself out of it and ends the post.]

Oh my gooooooood.

[She sighs.]

Suck it up, Pupa. He's gone.

No, no...

[Not challenging, just... conversational. Distracted, almost. He doesn't even seem to realize who he's talking to, really.]

He'll turn up, I'm sure he, will.

Alternia to Nitram, Alternia to Nitram, this is your better speaking. We've located your denial and its busy running rampant!

[You can almost hear the eyeroll in her voice.]

Seriously, you're embarrassing yourself way more than usual.

...Vriska?

[Oh look, one of his synapses is working. There's a long pause.]

This, isn't a good time, I'm, busy.

Busy being an idiot, you mean. Newsflash, the sky is still blue and I don't care.

Do yourself a favor for a change and accept it.

Not now.

[Whether he's restating that he's busy or saying that he'll accept it later, who knows.]

[UUUUUUUUGH HE MAKES HER SO MAD. Maybe she should just go find him and his partner and inform them that he needs better upbringing.]

When are you ever gonna grow up?

[Another pause, just some faint sounds of breathing on his end.

Then he ends the feed.]

[Rude.

Hmph. Whatever, she was gonna cut it if he didn't. Somehow, grinding Tavros' confidence into the dirt isn't as entertaining as it used to be. Probably because he's still doing the same old thing.

Stupid.

Wh8tever.]

... [Oh Tav...]

Want help looking?

[He stops two seconds after Masaru spoke, turning his head to blink at him for another couple of seconds.]

Uh... I, don't know.

[He looks forward, seeming to lose his train of thought from there, before turning away to head for the apartment door.]

[Yep, he's going and you can't stop him Tavbro. You are too spacey to be left alone]

His place first?

Uh...

[He keeps walking in silence for a few seconds.]

No, Karkat already said that, he wasn't there, so...

[Tiny nod... and he just walks along silently next to Tavros. He knows there's nothing he can really do to help other then... be here]

[He wanders out of the apartment building and on into the streets, aimlessly, silent the whole time. Once in a while he'll suddenly stop and look around or just stare at something, then move on again. Really, he doesn't seem to be searching at all so much as just putting one foot in front of the other.]

[This is something Tavros has to do, Masaru knows that. He might as well not be there for now. But not being there, even helpless, is something he can't do.

He'll wait till the truth hits, and then do his best to help]

Tav...

[He looks up at Masaru as he walks, still with that delayed reaction time.]

Huh...?

Maybe we should take a break.

Oh...

[He slows down a bit, stops....... then resumes walking again.]

No, I can't stop, yet.

UN BE FUCKING LIEVABLE.

I MEAN WHAT

DO YOU WANT TO COME OVER TO MY HIVE AND STARE AT THE EMPTY SPACE ON THE FLOOR WHERE HIS STUPID USELESS PILE OF HORNS USED TO BE?

hE COUL HAMVED T

[Typing is not agreeing with him right now. He switches to voice.]

He could have, moved them somewhere...

[Karkat wasn't going to show his face on the network, he's pretty upset right now.

but there's been a new development, so.]

Okay, first off, no he didn't. He's not bright enough to get rid of all his disgusting sugar swill and hide the horn pile and leave notes, and why the blazing fuck would he do that anyway?

And, uh. He left you something.

[the camera shifts, then tilts as Karkat films this. there's another paper with a similar drawing next to it, but once he realizes it's in the frame, Karkat swats it off the table.

there's a long pause before Karkat says anything.]

Sorry.

[There's a hefty pause on Tavros' end.]

...

I, uh, need to get going, to look for Gamzee, so...

[...]

[annnd back to text. these fickle kids.]

FINE. IT'S NOT YOU ASSHOLES EVER KNEW HOW TO MAKE ANYTHING EASY EVEN FOR YOURSELVES ANYWAY.

DON'T LEAVE THE CITY WITHOUT YOUR PARTNER, DUMBASS. JUST DO ME THIS ONE MINOR SOLID AND I'LL LEAVE YOU TO TURN THE PLACE UPSIDE DOWN.

[oh he remembers you. and you're looking all sad again. you need to stop doing that bro.]

Is a friend of yours missing?

[Oh hey, it's Sara. But he doesn't take much notice of that right now.]

Karkat said that, he was sent back by BREW, but, he could still be here, he, has to still be here.

What makes you say that?

...has something happened to him?

[She has a sneaking suspicion, of course, but...]

Karkat said he's gone, but, I'm sure he's just, uh, somewhere... I'm sure he'll, get back to me soon.

Gone? You mean... he has been returned by BREW? Karkat said that?

[ see, this is where Sollux would normally fire off some kind of cripplingly barbed insult regardless of the delicacy of the situation. normally. as it is, he's just left listening and thinking for a long while, digging up and ultimately discarding a whole minute's worth of failed conversational starts and bad beginnings. ]

All depends if he can even use his communicator like everyone else.
