So, for the costume ideas, I'm using the ideas of NigNig and Team Valdez.
Also, all your reviews make me tear up! Everyone who has anything nice to say is amazing :3
"Tada, Karbro!" Gamzee grinned widely and flourished the outfit for me to wear.
My jaw dropped and my eyes widened. After a few seconds I spoke.
"Are you out of your god damn mind, Gamzee?! I am not wearing that." I snapped at him.
He was holding out a hanger with a little black dress on it. It had white frills and came with a hat. It was a maid outfit.
Oh hell no.
Gamzee took one look at my face and burst out laughing. Growling, I jumped on his back and we rolled around on the couch for a few seconds before I pinned him down and spat in his face, "Burn the stupid outfit."
"Nope." He said, flipping me over so I was on the bottom. I struggled and spit in his face.
"God dammit!" I hissed angrily at him. "Die in hell!"
"No can do, Karbro. It's you outfit and you gotta wear it." Gamzee grinned lazily at me. I felt my eye twitched and I sighed deeply. There was no way out of this, unless I knocked him out. And given the state I was in, that wasn't a good possibility.
"Ugh, I hate you!" I shoved him off of me, grabbed the outfit, and flew into my bedroom, spewing curses. Gamzee trailed after me, chuckling.
Three hours later, I was ready to go.
Meaning I had a lot of makeup, my nails were done, and I was dressed in the horrendous outfit. I had second thoughts about it halfway through the process, but Gamzee had gotten some baby pictures of me to blackmail me with, so absconding into the sun wasn't an option, as tempting as the option sounded.
Sigh. How I hated life.
"Let's get this over with." I grumbled as I headed for the door. I had on heels, which made me very wobbly. Gamzee grinned. He was going as the Joker, with the full creepy makeup and dyed green hair. I glowered at him.
"Carry me to the car." I demanded. He did as I told him, dumping me in the shotgun seat. I adjusted myself as he climbed into the front and started the engine. We drove in uneventful silence. My stomach was hurting terribly at the thought of seeing Sollux again. I dreaded it.
Sighing, once we got there, I got out and nearly fell over as we climbed the steps to the clubhouse. Inside, people were milling around and chatting, smiling to each other. Eridan and Rose were dressed like wizards in long black robes. Once Gamzee spotted Tav, donned in a Peter Pan costume, he ran off. As people caught sight of me, they smirked. I responded by flipping them off.
No, I was totally not looking for Sollux. What are you talking about? I sat down at one of the tables, and immediately, John and Dave rushed up to me.
John was dressed like a bunny (I'm sure Dave took that the wrong way) and Dave was some kind of vampire (I could tell by his pathetically fake fangs) being in a dress. Probably for ironic purposes, but it was still a dress, and a tight one too.
"Don't even talk to me about him or I'll kill you both." I threatened upon seeing Dave's smirk and John's devious smile.
"But have you seen him yet?" the blue-eyed male asked, adjusting his bunny ears.
"He's here?!" My eyes widened when Dave's smirk broadened and he nodded.
"Oh god. Where?" I self-consciously looked down at my outfit and cringed.
"Ehehe. He's talking to Eridan." John pointed, and I groaned.
"Why did you run anyway?" Dave asked. I could practically hear the smirk in his voice.
"Do me a favor and die in a slow, painful way Strider." I spat as I stood up. The dress barely came to my knees. I silently swore at Gamzee as I headed over, still wobbly in those damn heels, to get a drink. Perhaps some water would calm my nerves.
And guess who was standing with his back to me at the drink table?
Of course it was Sollux Captor.
From what I could tell, he was a police officer. He even had a blue and red Taser stuck in his belt. I swallowed hard and backed up, but Vriska, who had been talking to him caught sight of me.
"Karkat! How delicious you look!:
Oh, I was so screwed.
It was too late to run, so I forced a smile, shooting daggers at her. I stepped forward, and he turned around. His mismatched eyes locked with my nervous ones, and I could feel him look me up and down. His gaze was incredulous for a second before he abruptly turned and walked away.
I felt like doing the same, just in the opposite direction, but Vriska was still smiling smugly at me.
"So you like him, hm?" She laughed a little, twirling a lock of black hair around one finger and shooting me a small smirk. I gritted my teeth and glowered at her. I was probably going to punch her in the face but Gamzee sauntered up to us, laughing lazily. Tavros trailed after him, looking guilty. I looked between the two, smelt vodka on Gamzee's breath, and groaned.
"You couldn't watch him for even a few seconds?" I snapped at the brunette as I grabbed the stoner's arm and dragged him towards the door. He laughed lazily, stumbling after me. I shoved him into the car, locked the doors, and turned back to go inside.
And came face to face with Sollux Captor.
