> Nepeta: Quest





You are Nepeta Leijon. Although you find this current turn of events to be SUDDEN and SHOCKING, and even though you are preoccupied at the moment, you guess you can give us a good self-description.

Admittedly you are a bit of a THRILLSEEKER - whether it be he five-second crunch at the end of a Street Fighter match of a high-speed chase through a BURNING forest. You love ARCADE FIGHTING GAMES, obviously, even though your strategy is BUTTON MASHING. However, theree is a precise and powerful rhytm to your buttom mashing which no others could hope to achieve. For a short time you were involved n the BASKETBALL CLUB with Feferi, but of course that was before Chuck E' Cheese's added the machines you love so much and those Korean kids started hanging around them every so often. Someday you will learn whose mashing is truly better.

You have quested yourself right into a forest slowly being engulfed in flames. You also don't really know what you're trying to do. Your friend is bleeding his way toward perma-death. His cousin pulled you between worlds. And you have a really crappy sense of fashion in this universe! Couldn't you have at LEAST made yourself blonde in your spare time? Alas you digress, because it is no use arguing to yourself if you are not the you you are trying to argue at.

Do you even know which way you're going?

> Nepeta: Take an Alternian stroll.



Aw dam (as in the Hoover) it! Just what you need. MORE obstacles. You had better take your time and think this through.

========>



Does this even matter when you don't know where you're going?

Oh, if only your T. Hawk was here! Then he could throw you high over the forest, where you would run on some indigenous birds, roll into Sollux's apartment (likely to be on the top floor or something if he's got a ROOFbeast), give'm a quick peck, and skydive outta there back to your honey, landing by kicking a bear in the face! MMM! SO actiony.

All this exciting action is somehow reminding your of the good old days...

> Nepeta: Drink from ye flask and remember the good old days.





You remember the last time you talked to Equius. It was second grade. A balmy arts-and-crafts kind of day. You were making a bird house together for an assignment out of a milk carton.

EQUIUS: No no no what are you doing
NEPETA: i just put in an electrical plug! :3
NEPETA: is that so wrong?
EQUIUS: Birds don't need electricity
EQUIUS: It would kill them
EQUIUS: That's how fried chicken is made you know
NEPETA: then how would they play VIDEO GAMES, equius??
EQUIUS: With their nonexistant thumbs
EQUIUS: Which is to say they can't
EQUIUS: They can't play video games Nepeta
EQUIUS: They would stay up so late playing them that they would starve because a bird woke up earlier and ate its worm
EQUIUS: Bird eat worm world out there y'know
NEPETA: thats so dumb and sad!
NEPETA: i refuse to believe that 3:<!!
NEPETA: animals can do more than you think mr. smartysmartsmart! some chimps can take a stick and make a fire.
EQUIUS: Not really otherwise they'd kill us
NEPETA: yes, and yes they can!
EQUIUS: Chimp fire is a lie
ERIDAN: aand that's how planet of the aapes happened
ERIDAN:
EQUIUS: Eridan don't talk to someone so DUMB[/STRONG] it's bad for you
NEPETA: then in that case dont talk to someone so STUPID!!
ERIDAN: u-u-aa-a-uu-u-aa-a-uh who do i talk to now??
JOHN: teacher! she said the s word!
NEPETA: well equius said the D word!!!

Then you both got out-of-school-suspension for vulgar language and you know what, this WASN'T a good old day. Why would you even try to remember it? You guess it was to re-verify how much you hate Equius for dragging you all into this crappile in the first place. You sure don't like THAT guy!

Anyhoo which way do you go??

[Naristar]

Did she just kill her lusus?

Did she just kill her lusus?

Nah, just the lovable tannish-blooded Oshawott lusus, and we'll explain why some guys like these are going crazy further down this page. But, then again I'm just assuming that Lusii have the same blood as their trollkids. Somebody make me a sarcastic "CANON" picture I can use in these circumstances.

> Nepeta: Time to jet! Sollux is DYING.



Hmm... when you come to a fork in the road, the most logical decision is to go...



Left!





Hmm.....



Left!













Four lefts, stupid?? What were you THINKING?! UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGH

Meanwhile...



Far off, but not too far, a CHOLERBEAR, stricken with grief, has just killed and eaten its troll child, who died in a tragic meteoric accident. The accident in question has driven this poor, poor lusus, like so many others tonight for all intents and purposes, crazy. All it feels now is a need to fill the void in its heart with more nutritious CHILDMEAT (not innuendo).

She spies a Nepeta and waits to strike. But first, she needs to find the right moment to do so. We'll come back to this guy later.

Why thanks! I'm really happy everyone's enjoying the stupidly long length of it! We waste too many hours on this project...

And everyone else stop posting forever. I don't want this to be like Be The Lowblood Seadweller where you get two pictures and a paragraph of story every seven pages I mean weeks or whichever

> Nepeta: Dejectedly enter hive.



Yeah, wow, what a cruel joke this place is! I mean, how did this even happen? You guess it could just be a sign that you need to gather supplies.

> Nepeta: Spot cat.



That guy's sitting right where you left him. Such a loyal guy. But seriously, why's everything got to be about cats with Nep?

> Nepeta: Place hat on cat.







Yes. Because HE DESERVES--

Oh. Wait. This presents a problem. How's the guy gonna see!? The hat is simply too large. Well, he seems content for now. Let's cross that bridge when we get to it.

> Nepeta: Retrieve tablet.



Oh right! You should probably take it along, but you can't imagine it fitting in your coat pocket.

Who's that on Trollian? Whatever. Doesn't look like Troll Vriska at any rate. You'll just ignore her for now.

> Nepeta: Give the cat your computer; a name.



Ghengis Cat will take great care of your posessions while you're gone.

> Kid! Kanaya: Feel upset.



Nobody likes being ignored. These are the kinds of things that resonate across universes.

You weep. But only because it makes the audience laugh.

> Nepeta: Flash-step and chat simultaneously.





Your phone has been vibrating this whole time! What kind of kid doesn't notice that sort of thing? No more word from Kanaya, but you've got messages from both John and Rose. But you need to get a move-on, too.

PS: nah, sorry, just message us if you need to say anything at all! there is something i really want to tell you and equius, too!
PS: so, when you can spare a moment.
PS: i'll just leave my phone on all night...
PS: okay, we just had breakfast. jade didn't want me on the phone before then, so i wanted to make sure you weren't worrying or anything.
PS: we're going off to school now! i'll tell all the kids i'm trying to message you!
PS: okay, so there was a problem on the way to school. my dad ran over a dog! thankfully, it was not davidson...

PS: okay, i just need to stop thinking about this right now... i feel really terrible about all this... so how are things with you?
PS: we made it to school! i saw a pregnant lady at the sidewalk with a baby in a stroller. it really made me think about life! it's fragile, right? this whole adventure of yours, sollux's and equius's has really brought us all together.
PS: i feel really great now. i had a big talk with gamzee, and we just decided that sollux is going to be okay! otherwise, why would he say he's gonna die twice if he dies only one time? that would be really bad writing on andrew's part. what are your thoughts on this? do you think he's gonna come back to life?
