Karkat and Gamzee sat together, snuggling. They had decided to hang out together because they were bored, but their boredom had only gotten worse. Eventually, Karkat caught an unpleasant smell on his nose. He leaned over and sniffed Gamzee, then immediately sprang to his feet. "GAMZEE, YOU'RE TAKING A BATH" Gamzee immediately looked up at Karkat in bewilderment and horror. "WhY!?" He exclaimed. "BECAUSE YOU SMELL LIKE A SHIT INFESTED WRIGGLER NOOK NOW COME ON" Karkat said, grabbing Gamzee's arm and dragging him to the bathroom. "NoOoO dOn'T mOtHeRfUcKiNg Do ThIs To Me BrO!" Gamzee screeched, clawing at the wall as he was dragged.
"YOU'RE GOING TO TAKE A FUCKING BATH GAMZEE, SO STOP COMPLAINING" Karkat snapped as he opened the bathroom door and dragged Gamzee in. "NoO kArBrO, dOn'T mAkE mE tAkE a MoThErFuCkInG bAtH! iT's NoT nAtUrAl! BaThInG's NoT nAtUrAl!" Gamzee yelled, grabbing the frame of the bathroom door. "IT'S COMPLETELY NATURAL, NOW GET YOUR SORRY ASS IN HERE" Karkat roared, tugging at Gamzee's shoulders. Gamzee lost his grip and fell backwards, landing on top of Karkat. "SoRrY bRo!" Gamzee said, nervously getting up.
Karkat didn't respond, instead he lept over and locked the bathroom door before Gamzee could reach it. "YOU'RE NOT LEAVING UNTIL YOU TAKE A GODDAMN BATH" He said, leaning against the door. "BuT i DoN't WaNnA" Gamzee whined, giving Karkat his best puppy face. "TOO FUCKING BAD" Karkat said. Gamzee pouted, feeling completely defeated. "AwWw ShIt, FiNe." He sighed, taking off his shirt and tossing it onto the floor. Karkat turned to face the door. "ALRIGHT, GO AHEAD AND TAKE YOUR BATH, I'M NOT LOOKING" He said, covering his eyes with his hands.
Gamzee quickly filled the bathtub with water, and got in. He bathed in awkward silence for a while, Karkat still staring at the door. "KaRbRoOo, I cAn'T rEaCh My MoThErFuCkIn BaCk, CaN yOu GeT iT fOr Me?" Gamzee asked. "FINE" Karkat said, rolling his eyes as he walked over to the bathtub. As soon as he reached for the soap, Gamzee splashed some water on Karkat's head. "WHAT THE ACTUAL FESTERING DISEASED NOOK LICKING FUCK DID YOU DO THAT FOR!?" Karkat roared, trying to squeeze the water out of his hair. "If I gOtTa TaKe A mOtHeRfUcKiN bAtH, tHeN yOu Do ToO!" Gamzee laughed. "NO I DON'T, BECAUSE I'M NOT THE ONE WHO PUTS OFF BATHING UNTIL THEY SMELL LIKE A SPEWING FOUNTAIN OF TOXIC FUCKING WASTE" Karkat said, sticking his tongue out at Gamzee.
"AwWw CoMe On, It'S nOt ThAt BaD!" Gamzee said, handing Karkat some soap. "IT'S EXACTLY THAT BAD GAMZEE, SMELLING YOU WHEN YOU HAVEN'T HAD A BATH IS WORSE THAN SMELLING A LOAD GAPER ON A HOT DAY" he said as he grabbed the soap and started rubbing it on Gamzee's back. "BuT yOu'Re SiTtInG oN a LoAd GaPeR" Gamzee said, pointing at Karkat. "STOP MOVING DICKWAD, I ALMOST MISSED A SPOT" Karkat said, turning Gamzee's head away with one hand. Once he was done scrubbing Gamzee's back, Karkat leaned forward and sniffed Gamzee again.
"GOD DAMMIT GAMZEE, YOU DIDN'T WASH YOUR HAIR YET DID YOU?" Karkat snapped. Gamzee smiled, and shook his head. Karkat sighed and grabbed the shampoo, pouring some directly into Gamzee's hair. Karkat began massaging the shampoo into his moirail's scalp, and Gamzee purred with quiet contentment. Once he was done, Karkat scooped up several hand-fulls of water and dumped them onto to Gamzee's head. "ALRIGHT, YOU'RE GOOD TO GO" Karkat said, grabbing a nearby towel and handing it to Gamzee. "ThAnKs KaRbRo" He smiled as he took the towel, wrapping it around his shoulders, and got out of the bathtub.
"HEY GAMZEE" Karkat said, standing up. "WhAtS uP aNd BoThErInG yOu-" Gamzee went silent as Karkat pressed his lips against Gamzee's forehead. "I WASN'T MAD AT YOU OR ANYTHING, BUT YOU SERIOUSLY SMELLED LIKE A PILE OF ROTTING SHIT OK. NOW PUT SOME GODDAMNED CLOTHES ON, IF I SEE YOUR BULGE ONE MORE TIME I'M GONNA FUCKING PUKE."
