Who: Karl and anyone and everyone
When: Day 15, all day
Where: Hallway, outside of Apartment A
What: The statue is resting after his gigantic battle with Muppet. Care to talk to him?

[Karl just sits, eyes closed against the wall. He has his usual smile on his face with Arma perched on his head, watching people come and do. He isn't moving anytime soon. Come speak with him perhaps? Poke at him? Call him names? You're choice.]

Comments

[pencilpremonition]

Yeah. He's really great.

[Have a derpy grin of her own. She likes him so much.]

[dearyme]

Do you love him?

[pencilpremonition]

It's too early to say. I like him, though. A lot.

[dearyme]

Well be careful. Love can blind you.

[pencilpremonition]

...What's that supposed to mean?

[dearyme]

Let me tell you a story!

Once upon a time, there was a man who was in love with a beautiful woman. And he would do anything for her. Even saved her life once. He wanted to be close to her and would have changed anything and everything in his life for her. And was very understanding when she had to leave his company.

It turns out this woman was trying to woo another man, though. And she did. Then one day, she brought her new lover to meet her friend. And the lover didn't like the friend at all. So he tried to kill him, claiming he was a monster. The man was crushed and died that day.

Love can trick you into seeing things that are fake or no seeing what is in front of you.

Be careful~

[pencilpremonition]

[Oh Karl. If only Becca had the good sense to put two and two together. Guess what! She doesn't!]

Don't worry! I'll be careful. I promise.

[dearyme]

Good. And remember. If anyone ever hurts you. You tell me okay? And I'll make sure they never do it again.

Life is painful enough without people adding to it, right?

[Oh, he was planning on it. Becca is his human as far as he is concerned. Kind of like a pet!]

[pencilpremonition]

Oh, Karl. You're so good to me.

[Here, have a hug. A totally innocent, completely unwary hug.]

Most everyone is nice. It's just the colour-coded crazies that aren't. Especially that bitch that hit me. Did you see when I had that bruise?

[dearyme]

I know what you mean. I'm not a fan of them either.

She hit you? Deary me! I thought you fell!

[pencilpremonition]

I did fall. She hit me so hard I fell over. And Aella. Aella's always mean to me.

[Snugglesnuggle.]

But you'll take care of me? You're so nice.

[Becca kind of gets that he might do something nasty to people that bother her, and she's all too happy to encourage this. Morals what? She'll probably enjoy being his pet.]

[dearyme]

I'll have to have a talk with Aella and this other girl who hit you. Tell me their names and I'll find them for you.

And I'll always take care of you Becca. You're my friend. My first friend in a very long time.

[He would hug you back if he could move his arms at the moment. But he is resting for a reason. And any excuse to hurt people? These two are a wonderful fit.]

[pencilpremonition]

I forget her name.

[She draws him a nice little sketch of Excel, though.]

She wears orange and lives in apartment E. They were all pretty nasty to me and Kidale when we were looking for a room. But now we live in apartment H, and we have a room all to ourselves!

... ... ...

[Blush!]

[dearyme]

Apartment E...

I see.

[Oh don't worry. He doesn't care. His gears are turning. All the little problems seem to be in one apartment. And fire spreads~]

[pencilpremonition]

[Idly sketching Excel getting murdered with a scimitar... It's not a vision, it's just a wish.]

Kidale tried to make them promise not to hurt me again, but they wouldn't even do that. They're so mean.

[dearyme]

[Karl looks at it and smiles.]

Cutlasses are better~

[pencilpremonition]

What's the difference? They're both curved swords, right?

[dearyme]

Arma doesn't turn into a simitar. She turns into a cutlass~

[pencilpremonition]

[erase erase erase edit edit edit cutlass instead]

[dearyme]

Muuuuuch better.

[And he giggles.]

Trigger Warning

[pencilpremonition]

[She giggles as well, and when she's finished, turns the page. She starts drawing herself at home, in her closet, dead from slitting her wrists.]

This was my favourite thing to draw back home...

Re: Trigger Warning

[dearyme]

Drawing yourself escaping the pain?

[pencilpremonition]

Yeah. I kind of wish I'd done it, really. If I knew I was gonna come here when I died... I wish it'd happened sooner.

[dearyme]

Now now. Think of it this way.

You experienced all of that pain and now are stronger. You can deal with more of it now.

And here you found a boy you like and friends!

Sure you have enemies. But we all do. And enemies can be just as easily killed as we can.

[pencilpremonition]

That's right. And now I can keep living.

[She draws lines through the picture of her dead body, then draws a picture of her and Kidale and Muppet and Karl all having fun together, and Excel nursing a black eye in the corner.]
