Your name is Dave Strider, and you just moved to a new city.

You look around, and it seems cool enough. Though you've never heard of Skaia before, this city is actually pretty urban. Bro has started a new club here with an old friend named Roxy. He's the DJ and she gonna manage the bars though Bro keeps saying she's gonna drink everything in sight... So to make it easier she and bro moved to the same complex. Your apartment is right above hers. As totally rad as it is, this Roxy chick happens to be your pesterchum friend Rose's sis, so now you get to be psycho analyzed all the damned time. Plus now you have to go to a new school. Your last one was so uncool in a not ironic sense that this can't be any worse.

"Hey lil man we're here." Bro nudges you

"Cool. So all our shit's here right?" I nod to the apartment complex

Bro nodded "Yeah, Roxy grabbed it and threw the boxes in our pad."

"Sweet."

"But you're gonna have to order take out, too late to buy and cook shit." Bro yawned and fixed his anime shades

"It's 4 Bro."

"Don't take that tone; I worked the final gig last night." Bro smirked in an ironic fatherly voice

"Pizza or Chinese?" I grunted pulling out my iPhone to find some online menus

"Pizza" Bro says while grabbing his bag and lil Cal from the backseat

"On it" I nod and call the place up, after placing the order I turned to Bro, "20 minutes"

"Cool, get your shit from the trunk and let's check this place out."

"Yeah yeah…" I yawned I sent a pester to Rose letting her know that we'd gotten here

turntechGodhead [TG] ceased pestering Tentacletherapist [TT]at 4:17 PM

I made my way up, my bag only had my music book and some AJ for the road, gotta have that shit ready at all times. All times…

"Hey" I hear someone call for me, whoa, it's a younger Bro…

"Sup?" I nod

"You Strider numero dos?" He doesn't sound like he's asking but I go along with him

"As if anyone else could be so lucky." I smirked, I got closer to the dude and saw his hair was spikey but more so and he wore a black tank with an ironic hat on it. His hands had gloves too but his black jeans looked like they were covered in oil.

"Ladies are waiting upstairs." He gestures, "So hurry up knight boy" He smirks

"Well forgive me, princess." I smirked

He just ironically curtsied at me.

Touché dude…

"So y'all got a name or you gonna be princess?" I ask

"Well I might like you to be my knight in shining armor…" he smirks back

"So y'all a Lalonde huh?"

"Sorta. All kinds of crazy shit in the family might as well have been made in an ecto-lab test tube or some shit." He shrugs

"Damn straight…" I agree

We cruised up the stairs silently, I decided to flash step the rest of this flight, but the dude did it the same time as me!

Only Striders flash step…

"Huh, you're pretty fast dude." He smirked

"Not too slow either..." I almost wanted to call him bro. Even his voice was deep like his, just not as low. More smooth... shit what's his name…

"Name's Dirk" He said putting his fist out

"Dave." I nodded bumping his fist with my own

"Let's race, if I win... Rose gets to put black lipstick and a bow on your hair." He smirked

"If I win, you get the same and gotta wear one of her dresses" I smirked back

"Deal..."

"1" I started

"2" he went

"3!" We flash stepped, even trying to trip the other at a point or two, dude's fast…

"I win" I smirked as we burst through the door, I looked around and saw Rose had actually put flower petals on the ground and a red carpet was at the door

"I won" Dirk denied, Rose I guess and Bro stood up and looked at us.

"It was a tie, so what'd you bet?" Bro asked

"Loser gets a dressed up by Rose..." I told Bro

"Well you both lost, so you both do it." He smirked

"No, hell no. Fuck n-" I got cut off by Dirk's chuckling.

"Sure. Fair's fair" He nodded

"If it's a tie, we can both not do it." I shrugged

"Nah, I wanna see you all made up lil' man" Bro smirked

"As would I enjoy doing said 'making up'" Rose smiled holding up a makeup case and a few dresses, "this way brother and Dave..." She just had those ready?

"Fine" I sighed, this better be fucking ironic...

This was so not ironic; Dirk was smirking, watching me get layer after layer of makeup, and hair bows; while he just waited for his turn. I kept my shades on, no getting those off.

"Looking good lil' man… I'm gonna take a pic for my site." Bro smirked

"Fuck no" I growled

"Watch your damn mouth." He stared at me through his shades. I could just tell.

"I would watch these lips if I could but my mirrors all break. I'm so damn hot it's unlucky." I smirked

"The mirrors break because you break them." He smirked back

"Don't leave plush rump in the shower." I grunted, he knew why I broke the mirrors

"Right, Rose lemme know when they're all pretty." He waved and went toward the kitchen, "Rox, get sobered up girl…"

"I will let you know as soon as they are presentable." Rose smiled as she responded. She stood and grabbed a red dress with black lace. "This will fit you Dave." How'd she get one in my size and color? I saw all hers were purple, pink, and black.

"Why do you have a red and orange dress?" I asked

"I had a… feeling… and my good friend Kanaya made these to my specifications." Rose smiled her creepy smile

"Gotta say, this orange seifuku outfit is sugoi." Dirk smirked, well geez him and bro are going to get along fine with all this sugoi shit.

"Right, is this the 'friend' you engage in sloppy make outs with Lalonde?" I asked as I stripped to boxers. I slipped the dress on and sat on the bed next to Dirk, "Your turn dude." I waved to the chair of girly demise.

"Cool, make me all pretty Rose." He said leaning back in the chair with his arms behind his head; like he wasn't just about to get all made up.

"As you wish." Rose smiled, she started to work on his face, keeping his shades on and adding blush.

"Looking good Princess." I smirk

"You too, Lady Knight." He smirked back, "Nah… you're a squire."

"Oh snap, you've dishonored me… we're gonna have to strife later. Defend my honor and shit."

"Sounds good, I'm tired of fighting my robots anyways." He nodded

"Cool, I'll ninja up on you." I smirked

"It's a date." He smirked back

"Swoon, I'm getting all 'doki doki' here!" I fanned myself

"Psssh you're bru's getting all 'dirki dirki' bro…" I turned and saw a taller, drunk Rose.

"He's looking pretty kawaii too" Bro just smirked

"Shut up, you're just jealous I'm too sexy for my shirt, and pants, had to ditch all that shit and get a sexy dress up on here…" I ranted; I swear I saw Dirk crack a small smile. He stood up and he was all prettied up with an orange bow and the school girl outfit. He looks better in the tight tank top.

Shit, no didn't just think that. Nope.

*wrrrrrrrr click* A camera went off, I turned and saw Bro with his cell phone.

"BRO!" I shouted

"Say hello to plush rumps boys. That cool with you dude?" I glanced at Dirk who just shrugged.

"No." I said

"Lil' man, ya don't get a say…" Bro smirked

"Oh bullshit!" I pulled my sword out of my strife specibus and launched, I leapt to the hallway outside Rose's room and slashed towards Bro, he just flashed to the side and chucked Cal at me. "Jegus fuck!" HATE that puppet.

"Aaaaand, uploaded. Too late now lil' man. C-man and I win again." Bro had him back in his hands and walked out with Roxy snorting after she smiled at us.

"WONK!" I heard her yell, Rose followed them out with a small smile.

"What the actual fuck?" I sighed

"Yeah, that's the Lalonde guardian…" Dirk chuckled as he left Rose's room.

"That's the Strider's…" I nod smirking

"So… wanna chill in my room?" He nods across the hall.

"As long as I can take this dress off." I sigh

"You can wear whatever you want, or don't want dude." Dirk smiled, I swear I I could feel him winking at that.

"…cool." I grabbed my clothes from Rose's room floor and followed to Dirk toward his.
