You, your wild hair flicking in the breeze and your hood flying behind you, are John Egbert.
You decided to visit Dave's apartment. You heard that the Strider's home had been abuzz with activity lately, all sorts of people coming in and out and joining and... And and and.
His house was interesting. You heard he was getting married soon. To who? Jade Harley. He didn't even talk to you about it.
You sigh as your DAD silently allows you out of his car. You stumble slightly, confused by the amount of heat and wind that roll about Dave's house.
You look at it. You could parcially own his house, as he was marrying... Oh God.
You tried to push that from your mind as you walked into his home.
Your blue clothes were warm, and you were happy for the most part. You had missed Dave! You hadn't seen him in a while. And, you heard something about them finding his sister in a forest or something. Interesting, a sister? How many lost siblings might he have?
You walked up the steps and knocked on his door. You swore you had been here before... And was that... Numa Numa playing in there?
Dave open the door and looked down to you. "Sup." He said simply.
He was in his pajama-clothes. The red ones with the gear on the front. His God Tier clothes. They were comfortable... Well, your's were, at least. His cape fell down to his side and bunched up on top of troll horns. Terezi was hiding behind it. You laughed and bent down to talk to the troll. She pulled the cape from her face and you were greeted with her large teeth.
"Hi, John!" She said. She then licked your face.
You wiped her slobber off and waved to her. "Hi, Terezi, Dave!"
You stood up and held your hand out for a fistbump. Dave returned it and mumbled something about irony before tunring and letting you into his home. You walked in.
My God was it a mess.
There were people EVERYWHERE, to say the least. To list, you saw Gamzee and Karkat talking on the couch, Terezi and Dave before you, Rose and Roxy talking in the kitchen, Davesprite and Jade talking above the crowd, Nepeta and Equius on a hornpile in the corner of the living room, Jane and Dirk whispering to one another (they looked serious, which worried you), Eridan... Eridan?!
You looked to Dave for an explanation. He shrugged.
"Lots of doubles have been showing up here. I guess we fucked something up when the Doc came."
"The Doc?"
"The ninth one."
"...Uh, okay?"
Terezi grinned up at you. "There's another you here! He's in the backyard!"
"Oh, really?" You were instantly interested. "Can you show me?"
Whoops. Bad choice of words. Terezi frowned at you. "No way in hell, now."
"Oh, I'm sorry... I forgot." Oh no. You did it again.
Her frown increased in length. "How do you just forget that type of thing?!"
She pulled away from Dave's cape and walked away, tapping her cane down occasionally.
Dave turned to you. You flinched under his hard gaze. "Dammit John, you've been here, what, three minutes and twelve seconds, and you've already pissed someone off?"
He watched for your reaction. You went silent. He sighed and walked into the kitchen.
You jumped and proceeded to fucking bash your face into a wall after you felt a tap on your shoulder. You turned back, rubbed your now-sore nose, and saw a small girl who looked rather cat-like to you. She was bending down a bit, like a scared kitten, her short hair swaying slightly as she muttered an apology. Her brown eyes (which you thought were black at first) were wide, and her pupil size was changing too rapidly for you to describe. Her purple shirt and long jeans made swishing noises.
"It's okay..." You mumbled in response. You offered her a smile... Till someone fucking pushed you back into the wall.
"Hey, wait! Meow!" You heard the girl say, and your heard her swishing clothes move. Was she defending you? "Zephyr, he isn't hurting me!"
"But he just made the blind one upset..." You heard another person say behind you. "He looked like he was about to hit you! ... Un!"
You didn't turn around in case anyone else wanted to shove you into a wall. Of course Jake wanted to help out with with the pushing. You hadn't even noticed him here! How and WHY was your grandfather at your best friend's house?
"He isn't too violent, madams." He said. "Why don't you allow me to man-handle him?"
"Don't hurt him!" The cat girl yelped. "I hurt him, not the other way around! Meow!"
Finally, you turned and spoke. "It was my fault. Ignore me."
You tried to rush from the scene, but the second girl stopped you with a hand.
"Wait! Aren't you going to go apologize to the blind one...?" She asked. Your body shifted to see her better.
"Uh, sure!" You said. Her eyes made you uneasy. There was something... Mad hidden in there. You were sure.
She watched you expectantly. You saw her hair, which curl up at her shoulders, make way for her curled horns, which went behind her head. She had a long black sleeved shirt and skinny jeans. with lime green outlined black all star sneakers. She had two chains with blades at the tip one on each hip, she has short boy cut hair, which fell into big bronze eyes. Her horns are spheres bit a little bit points at the top in the middle, they are on the smaller side. She also has fingerless gloves made out of black cotton. Her clothes were held down a bit by a satchel. A rather large one at that...
The hair around her horns looked like down feathers on a baby duck. Her lightning-blue scarf made her adorable level increase ten-fold.
Aw... You thought. She looks cute!
You didn't mean that in any weird ways... Uh...
You assured yourself of this. The cat girl looked cute, too, but you wouldn't date either of them.
...Right?
Okay stop. You were making the situation awkward.
"S-So," you stuttered, starting the conversation again. "Where did Terezi go?"
"I didn't see... Un..."
"I saw!" The cat-girl started slinking past you, and then broke into a run. You cast a glance at the troll and ran after the human, your feet kicking up a storm. You heard the troll follow swiftly. You all left Jake in the dust.
While running, you trip over what you think was one of the Eridan's legs and hop up, trying to righten yourself, and fall face-first into a mound of blonde.
Is this hair? You wonder. It feels soft and you're quickly caught up in it. You flail and make it worse.
"The hell are you doing?" You hear from the owner of the mountain growl at you. Oh God no. She whipped around, her hair perfectly removing itself from you, and tackles you down. She hisses behind rectangular shades and holds you down. She's obviously shorter than you, and her hair is fucking coating your everything. It's a miracle you can see her pale face around it.
The cat girl rushes around you, trying to calm the blob of yellow down. She didn't move. She just watched you.
Your eyes darted around her hair as you looked for an opening. You saw her exposed stomach and short shorts. How could she wear that comfortably?!
You took a chance and headbutted her. She recoiled and held her forehead as you scrambled out from under her. You grit your teeth as your head throbs. Dammit...
You hit the back of your head on something firm. You turn and see Dirk Strider towering above you. His shades are blinking with hints of red. His auto-responders..?
"Did you just hit my sister?" OH, FUCK. Your hands shook and you yelped. The entire room went silent. Shit got serious when Dirk got mad.
You felt hands on your shoulders. A ruffle of feathers told you it was Davesprite.
"Whoa, bro. Let's just calm down." Davesprite soothed. "This is Egbert, after all! He probably just fucked up."
"You don't fuck up that bad. Even for an Egbert."
"Bro, give the poor kid a try." The blonde-haired girl spoke up, rubbing her head. "Let him strife."
Are you serious right now? You thought in annoyance.
"Strife?" Dirk turned towards you. You instantly forced yourself to stand tall. "You up to that?"
Like I have a choice. "Sure."
The blonde ran at you in a hurry, pulling out a scythe and bringing it down on you.
You took the completely logical option.
You did the windy thing.
It certainly pushed the blonde away. You saw Karkat hit the wall with a gasp. Dave had walked through the kitchen just in time to be pulled into your tunnel of wind. Gamzee honked as he was flung across the room. The cat flew onto your head and latched onto you. Jake was slammed into Dirk. Jade was holding onto Davesprite and not letting him go. Eridan clinged to Eridan and a third character (however you couldn't see him), weighing them down. Terezi soared by your face, riding Tavros's wheelchair. You didn't want to know where Tavros himself was.
You had only been at Dave's home for maybe ten minutes, and you had already destroyed his property and hurt just about everyone there.
Amazing.
Well, your name was John Egbert, and you wondered how you were going to survive a day like this.
