Who: Karkat and Terezi
When: Backdated to right after Valentine's Day
Where: 2235 Stevens Road
What: Make up date!
Warnings: Children kissing?

[After he acted like a complete asshole on Valentine's Day, Karkat really needs to make things right with his hopefully-still-girlfriend. (On the other hand, she totally went for the black kissing just so she could lick his blood, which is a completely nauseating thought, and she made out with at least two other guys. He's trying very hard not to be bothered by either of those things.)

Humans in movies apologize with flowers and normally some red roses would seem like a good idea, but for the time being plant life doesn't seem like the best pic. Instead, he picks up some Valentine candy hearts and spends some time trying to make her a card, going through several drafts until he stumbles on a design terrible enough for her.

With that done, he'll go to her hive and knock.]

I haven't ever seen one, what happens in them?

[Cartoons just make him think of Gamzee watching them and drooling all over the couch, gross.]

[foretaste]

Humorous things! Shenanigans! And violence except never any blood.

[crusthatecean]

I guess that sounds okay...

[foretaste]

Also most of the characters are animals. [they make it back to the main hub with the theaters, and she sniffs around at the posters.]

[crusthatecean]

Yeah, I know that much. I think Gamzee and Jade watch them.

[Looking as well, but he doesn't really have an opinion, he'll let her sniffnode pick.]

1/2

[foretaste]

This! This looks good!

[pointing to the poster for Peter Pan.] Wow, get a noseful of his leggings. Delicious.

2/2

[foretaste]

.............Doesn't this seem kind of familiar.

[crusthatecean]

[Wrinkling his nose.]

This is this stupid lusus tales for wigglers Tavros likes.

[foretaste]

Oh, god, it is! The humans have a movie about it, too!

[doesn't seem thrown off the movie by this. actually, she just seems more excited now.]

[crusthatecean]

[Oh, great...she seems to want to watch it. He's not even remotely interested in this, but he probably won't be much more interested in whatever else the theater has to offer, so why not.

There's like a rom story in this, right? Captain Hook and Pupa were totally kismesis or something, that's what he's gathered from his brief, mostly romantic counseling the mess of Tavros and Vriska's relationship knowledge of all of this. There'd better be a rom story.]

Amazing, of all the things humans would have, too.

[foretaste]

[Karkat may be wanting rom, but all Terezi wants is to sniff out that pea-flavored rump wiggling across the big screen.

she is a simple girl with simple needs.]

Isn't it great?

[pretending to be totally unaware that Karkat does not find it great.]

[crusthatecean]

[He has a sense she knows he does not find it great...

But that's really okay.]

It looks fine. It probably doesn't suck completely.

[foretaste]

It looks like an amazing tale of fantastic friendships and stuff.

[DRAGGING HIM IN]

[crusthatecean]

[Following bluh bluh bluh.]

[foretaste]

[plunking herself down in the seat! shoving her hands in her pockets for her licorice now. yes, she just stuffed it all in there when they got up. when she pulls it out, it's all half-melted and covered in lint. appetizing.]

Want one?

[crusthatecean]

[Ew.]

No, I'm good. Popcorn?

[foretaste]

[opening her mouth]

Feed me.

[crusthatecean]

[Making a face...

But he'll pick up a kernel of popcorn and sort of toss it into her open mouth. So romantic...]

[foretaste]

[yes so romantic

bites his fingers as the movie begins]

[crusthatecean]

[Wipes his fingers off on his shirt.]

[foretaste]

[idk what happens in the Peter Pan intro because it's been years but whatever it is is making Terezi have a color-related conniption it's all so beautiful]

Oh god.

[crusthatecean]

[It's basically the story of three wigglers who all have the same barkbeast lusus but also these adult human assholes who are all getting in their business.

It goes beyond his cultural comprehension of human family relations but just sighing and eating popcorn.]

[foretaste]

[when Peter Pan shows up on screen for the first time, Terezi stands up from her seat. popcorn and licorice go flying everywhere, and drones behind her begin shhhhh-ing her and telling her to sit. she does not listen.]

I... I...

[she stands there, transfixed by the green-clad rump on the screen.]

[crusthatecean]

[No...they're just drones, but he's still really embarrassed. But they're also just drones and he's trying to be on a romantic date, so he'll turn around and glare at them.]

Wedge that licorice in your noise hole until it's sealed shut, we're trying to enjoy this fucking wiggler movie and we don't need to be hissed at for doing that.

[foretaste]

[Karkat you are the best boyfriend, enabling Terezi to basically go catatonic with frozen-peas-flavored-rump-euphoria.]
