my heart's not fluttering or anything
Who: Hamsteaks,Team RWPY, & Dipper
Where: GOLDENROD INN, specifically Dave and Karkat's room but possibly others as well? It depends.
When: 3/5, afternoonish/evening/well into the wee hours of 3/6
Summary: A certain travel party largely consisting of traumatized teenagers initiates a team building exercise, AKA sleepover. This is clearly the best idea ever and will in no way backfire at all.
Rating: PG-13 for, uh. Homestuck vocabularies.
Log:
[Despite having been in their immediate vicinity for three weeks, Karkat had somehow managed to avoid talking to most of the people in their group for any significant length of time. A lot of it was personal preference because yes, he was still intermittently freaking out about being a human surrounded by humans, but the fact that he'd blown up at two of the other party members and probably guaranteed that Jade or Dave or both would be auspisticizing between them for the foreseeable future (oh god please no) didn't help matters. He'd rather stay in his damn room or hide in the local bookstore than deal with any of that bullshit.
Unfortunately, maintaining his busy schedule of staying the fuck away from other people as much as possible was untenable, especially when his best friends were also their friends and he literally had no excuse to keep putting it off—unless he could say he needed to take his Pokemon on a walk? Do people even take Pokemon on walks? Would Dave even buy that when neither Merope nor Sharru have shown the slightest amount of interest in going on walks? Well, okay, no, Dave might not even care, but Jade...
Either way, the moment his roommate decides on the impromptu movie night, sends out texts to inform the others, and begins putting together a Sweet Throh and Hella Sawk flyer for their door to mark the occasion (why is he friends with this moron again) is the moment Karkat's fate is sealed.
They're going to have a sleepover, and everyone is invited.]

[ The need to bong with and make up for Bad Shit with Penny overrode any common sense response. Yang turned and smiled. ]
Sure, as long as you're careful! [ Look even if the hair isn't linked to her strength here, Yang would never want anything bad to happen to it. Having manhandled it herself to get it into those obnoxious pigtails was bad enough. ]
no subject
[How hard could this be, ha ha ha.]
[She picks up an extra brush.]
Your hair's so beautiful, I'd hate to do something bad to it! Just long strokes with the brush, right?
no subject
[ She begins on the other side from Penny, since this will go faster if it's done cooperatively. Plus she can lead by example this way. ] Start from the tips, actually, and work your way up in sections. That way it won't tangle while it's this damp.
no subject
[And doing as instructed, carefully. Even without knowing about Yang's personal aggro-button, she meant what she said. Plus she does know by now how much yanking on a snag can hurt.]
Do you do this every day? I can't even imagine. I mean, well-
[Her voice drops to a bit of a whisper.]
It. Wasn't exactly something I had to worry about. Back home, I mean.
no subject
[ She turned her head a bit to enable glancing back Penny's way. ] Huh. You mean it didn't. Like, get tangled or anything? I guess I never questioned how you managed to keep a cute bob like that in perfect shape all that time.
