General Threading Mischief

[ognesperanza]

[how hard can it be to find one son of Hades who makes it a habit of hanging in the shadows and disappearing for days at a time?]

[maybe he's in the caves, getting his level up on]

[or perhaps he's hanging in the Black Forest, being cool and dark and myste--or just being Nico di Angelo]

[but maybe today he's actually in his room in the Stationhive, floor 2, room 1, Karkat's old room. gray walls, a few knickknacks, an unmade bed, clothes everywhere, and his laptop on his desk. oh, and he has a black electric guitar. suck it. or you know, enjoy the wrinkly puppy running around excitedly]

[or he's in the Dead/Undead HQ that Norman and he have called their own. not too far into the caves, before the medium monsters' territory begins, there's a hallway in a wall that didn't have one before. at the end is a good sized living room, rectangular and comfortably furnished. and yeah, there are probably zombies hanging out in it]

[hell, maybe he shadow-traveled somewhere he didn't mean to. oops, my bad! THE OPTIONS ARE LIMITLESS, MY FRIEND]

You just have to look deeper.

[boogerman]

Let's not trade pets, whatever we do do to each other.

[ognesperanza]

No, you can keep your . . . seahorse.

[boogerman]

And your raisin.

[ognesperanza]

A handsome raisin.

[sets Shadow down. puppy wants to explore the roof!]

[boogerman]

[animals probably fear me just standing here.]

I remember the days when dogs were tough. Wolfish.

[ognesperanza]

[Shadow's going to be wayyyyy over on the other side of the roof then. he can handle my vibe, but yours is a little much. still, sniffing things dubiously]

How long ago was that?

[boogerman]

More than a couple dozen millennia.

[ognesperanza]

[that would explain that]

Very well. Next time I see a hellhound, I'll point it your way.

[boogerman]

Now that you've said it, it's bound to happen.

[ognesperanza]

I hope so. I mean, most hellhounds aren't friendly . . . but I can handle them.

[boogerman]

Really.

[ognesperanza]

Haven't had to fight a hellhound since the Battle of the Labyrinth. You can distract them easily.

[not pride, just...fact]

[boogerman]

Dogs, right?

[ognesperanza]

Stupid and smart at the same time.

[boogerman]

Vaguely. Yours knows enough to stay away from me.

[ognesperanza]

Seems he just gets restless. His tolerance for darker aura is pretty high.

[boogerman]

He's afraid. Which you should have expected.

[ognesperanza]

Gee, you don't say. I thought the whole Boogeyman thing was just a clever trick.

[boogerman]

Witty. Good thing I didn't touch him when you shoved him in my face.

[ognesperanza]

Why? Would something have happened?

[boogerman]

A little puppy accident.

[ognesperanza]

As in you would have puppy piss all over your cloak?

[boogerman]

Probably you, not me.

[ognesperanza]

I move fast when I need to.
