NYANYA????? HEY ARE YOU ON THIS STUPID SHIP TOO If you are there's a bunch of us in some room together. Aki's here too because I must be punished every single goddamn day of my life for some sin that I must have committed in a past life. Seriously though, I'll come find you.
WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK
I have no idea what the fuck is going on. Are you okay??? You're obviously not here. Shit I hope you're back home with everyone else. Every time I think the shit we go through cannot get any more fucked up, something like this happens. This isn't even like Weird memory shit What the hell is going on??? Don't do anything stupid ok!!!
Ok it's pretty obvious at this point that you're not going to respond. Whatever I'm not surprised at this point. Just You're my best bro, right? Be careful.
Ok anyway so Aki and I had to fight this weird slime thing earlier? That's what the healing thing was about, the dumbass tripped and fell on a stick or something, I don't know, she's fine so it doesn't matter. But there's also like some weird octopus thing around apparently and we've been debating on the pros and cons of turning it into sushi. I think the ship we're on is like sinking or something equally as predictable so we're probably going to have to get out of here soon somehow. But where the fuck is "here" anyway? Jesus fuck. Do you ever wish we could just... go back to how things were before? I hate remembering these things and wondering what's even real anymore. But I met a lot of people because of this dumb app so who the fuck knows what would be for the best. I miss you.
[ there's the sound of the ocean in the background, as well as a few voices, like a group of people are having a conversation nearby.
when karkat talks, it's faintly. he's trying to not be overheard. ]
Hey. Did you go over a waterfall? There were like, these weird seashells that had people on them, and I am pretty sure one of them was you going over a fucking waterfall? That is the opposite of staying safe goddammit Anya. God, why the fuck did you and Yuri have to be dragged into something like this? He was in the shells too.
[ there's a pause. more ocean noises. ]
My phone's dying. We were in the ocean earlier and all our shit got soaked, but we got gills and shit so we didn't drown? It was weird. But somehow we got brand new phones now that we're not underwater, but they still aren't charged because fuck us, am I right? Seriously though. Fuck us, and fuck all of the crap that we're being forced to do. This isn't fair? You deserve to be happy and get your career off the ground, not to be doing-- doing this. You don't deserve that, Anya.
[ he sounds angry at this point, his voice raising, but then karkat catches himself and lowers it again. ]
If I never see you again, I just want you to know that you're my best bro. Always. Thanks for always sticking up for me even when I don't deserve it.
