PJTHGTBBTFANATIC73:
Aweeee! That was such a cute ending with Dave and John. I feel bad for Gamzee in the tale cause only Karkat was close to him. I'm really glad he met Tav too. Then Neputa and Equis have been through a lot also. There's a lot of background for each if these characters and its wonderful. I'm ecstatic to see the development between Dirk and Dave. Another great chapter.
Aw shit my face is getting warmer than LOHAC. Thanks again for reviewing dude. I hope you like the rest to come and I want ya'll to know your reviews are what inspire me to dish these white hot chapters of kawaii out. So thank you.

On to the dadadaduuuuh: 10th chapter of Ironically Sugoi:
Dave I-just-confessed-my-old-feelings Strider here, sitting with a piece of choice Japanese cookie-crack in mouth and a choice piece in front of me. Who's giving me a one eyebrow up stare down.
"Really? You wanna take me on again after last time?" He smirked
"Man, last time was a draw. This is high stakes shit now." I bite into the pocky and smirk at him, "scared?"
"Nah, just wondering 'bout your boyfriend's feelings." He murmured
"Never my boyfriend… He shot me down" I shrug, "He's not a homo" I get up and grab my drink, "except maybe for Nic Cage… total homo for that guy." I laugh
"You okay?" Dirk asked softly, touching my shoulder as he stood next to me with his drink in hand.
"It's fine, I'm… moving on well."
"You just told him and you're moving on?"
"Nah, I've moved on dude. I knew he wouldn't be with me forever ago, I've never even met him in person." I smile, "Crazy right? But no I moved on, I just pitied myself and never told him. Now I did and I got closure or some shit." I rant, "I'm a free man now."
"Hmm… well then," He leant in and bit the other end of the pocky and broke it in half. He backed away and smirked, "this calls for a celebration." He grabbed my hand and we left the coffee shop and walked down the street hand in hand.
Some girls honked at us as they passed so I swung our hands back and forth and shouted, "That's right, IN YOUR FACE LESBIANS RIGHT HERE!"
"Dude, I'm not sure about you but I have a dick." Dirk smiled as he swung his hand with mine.
"So do I man, c'mon get rumored with me." I chuckle, "Let's tear shit up."
"Kay" He nods and steals my drink, I grabbed his knowing if he's like Bro my frap is about to be smeared on my face. Instead Dirk just takes the lid off and licks off some of the whipped cream. "I'm all out…" He sighs dramatically
I look and see he did eat all the whip off his, I smirk; grab his hand and lick the caramel he got from the lid. "s'okay, but this is still my drink." I chuckle lowly
"Come take it back." And he flash steps away to the park again.
"I'll get it." I flash towards him and drop my bag by the tree, I flash around the playground with Dirk until I'm standing on the top of the tower thing about to descend onto his back. I jump and tackle him down. He turned and caught me but we fell and the frap spilled all over him. "Heheh, got you." I laugh
"You were supposed to get the drink, fuck that's cold." He laughed, I quirk a brow and lean in to him. I lick from his shirt collar to his chin getting a big glob of whipped cream and strawberry goodness. I sit up and swallow it.
"Got it" I smirk and lick my lips. He sat up with me still in his lap and licked right under my bottom lip.
"Got some too…" He whispered
9:9 1 for me cause of the tackle, 1 for Dirk with the licking whip off his fingers and 1 each for the licks I count in my head. I sigh internally; this game is getting too feeling-infused. Time to wrap it up soon… I stand and hold my hand out, "you need a shower." He smirks and pulls me back down so I straddle him again.
"Wanna join me for one?"
"Maybe… I'll think about it." I shrug and wiggle my eyebrows ironically
He grins and points up, "Time's up sir knight." I look up and it starts to drip, then rain. "If you don't want to get drenched, better run." He flashed from under me and held his hand out. "Well?"
"Guess we're going home." I took his hand and stood up but didn't let go. He held on tighter and swung our arms like I did earlier. I felt my mouth pull up in less of a smirk and more a lopsided smile.
"Why're you smiling?" He asks
"I gotta say, with no sarcasm here: I've never had this much fun before." I shrug, "My old school, they don't like anyone 'different' and they didn't understand the awesomeness of irony."
"Didn't you have some friends?"
"Not in reality. Rose, Jade and… John. That's it. All pesterchums." I explain
"Damn, well what about now?"
"I like it… although those guys… I'm gonna call your whole group 'trollers' dude. They're pretty cool as a group but more complicated than a 12-way Mobius double reach around." I smirk
"so all those guys are 'trolls' huh? That makes sense… and they are complicated. They're only human." Dirk shrugs
"Nah they're trolls, from some crazy-ass planet." I say, "but… I think I understand why Karkat was all pissy at lunch."
"Why?"
"Well, he felt guilty about Gamzee… what if he thinks that if he's with Terezi Gamzee will go crazy again?" I guess, "So maybe seeing all his friends together but him alone but too scared to change it just adds to his pain?"
"Whoa… that makes… sense… all of it even." Dirk sighed, "You're pretty amazing… you see all this shit."
"You look through a lens, and shit seems clearer… especially when no one can see you watch." I shrug, "That's how Bro described me…" I recall
"You should talk to Karkat, he won't like it at first… but he'd be grateful in the end I bet…" Dirk mentioned
"Maybe" I looked at the sky and smirked as I saw the apartment complex near, "race you!" I dashed forward without flash stepping, and in this rain it'd be dangerous. I get into the building and take the stairs 2 at a time I feel Dirk behind me gaining. I finally think 'fuck it' and flash step. I slip on the last step and fall.
"DAVE!" Dirk yells, all I think as I fall is "pchoooooooo" I land and there's something in my hand
I don't feel hurt… I open my eyes and see Dirk's holding me, face pink and eyes orange.
Orange… whoa, they're like burning amber… I look and see his shades in my hand, I don't give them back yet I just stare into his eyes.
"You must drink too much orange #12 to have those eyes…" I joke softly
"You're welcome… I shoulda warned you about the stairs bro, sorry." He smirks, "shades?" he nods his head to my hand.
"Not yet…" I say
"Well then…" He sets me down softly and takes my shades into his hand. As he pulls them away I shut my eyes quickly. "hey, no way man; let me see."
"Mine are freaky, not like yours… give them back…" I cover my face with the hand not holding his shades. I feel his hand tug mine off my face and hold it. "Dirk… give them back…" I ask
He kisses my hand, the top of it all princely, then each finger; and finally the palm. I feel his breath on my face as he breathes, "These can't ever freak me out Dave." He kisses each eyelid, "lemme see…"
"I-" I start
"Please…" He asks
"Well shit since you said please…" I start before he grabs my chin softly.
"Dave" he whispers again. I shake my head no. He kisses me lightly and I can't help my eyes opening. His eyes are open; looking at me and I see them widen when he sees. He breaks away with a gasp, "whoa…"
"Yeah, I'm basically albino… now give me the shades bac-" He cuts me off with another light peck.
"Dude… they're awesome." He smiles, "relax Dave." He grabs my free hand and hooks my shades onto his shirt.
"I-uh… kay." I shrug trying to grab my remaining dignity that just absconded. My face is burning red now I bet, and without my shades I know he can see. I glance at him during our awkward silence and see his ears and cheeks are red too. I still have his shades so I hook them on my shirt and follow him to his place. He unlocks the door and he gives me a once over. I kick my shoes off so there's no mud and follow Dirk to his room.
"You wanna borrow some clothes? You're… wet." He asks
"just some shorts, I guess I'll hang these up."
"Give 'em here, I'm gonna hang mine up too." He strips out of his shirt and pants and I stare for a sec before copying him. I'm left in my boxers while he hangs the shit up. My shades are on the desk and I put his on the night stand next to me. The photo frame is still down and my hand twitches but I shake my head. I notice there's still water on Dirk's shades and wipe them off since they're electronic. I put them on to check, and I smirk a little remembering when I wore ones like this from Bro… Suddenly the shades lit up, I look for a sec to see what was happening and call Dirk, but his name dies on my tongue as I read.
gutsyGumshoe [GG] began pestering timaeusTestified [TT] at 4:53 PM
GG: Gadzooks dirk, this has been an adventure trying to reaching you!
GG: I just wanted to give you a jolly bit of news
GG: Our wedding's going to be bumped up!
GG: Because…
GG: Jane and I are expecting a baby!
I rip the glasses off and my mind's going fucking light speed through the window. It feels like 3 years until Dirk comes back with a glass of AJ and a soda. His smile drops when he sees me.
"Your shade-pesterchum thing went off when I was drying them…" I explain and hold them out for him.
"Oh thanks dude… I turned AR off earlier since he was being a little shit… guess he opened pesterchum to get me back…" He sighed and took them from me. He put them on and I saw his eyebrows go up and then his lips get pursed tight.
"You okay?" I ask
"Yeah…" He sighs and pulls them off, "I just didn't want to talk to him or even know that shit…"
"Wanna talk about it?" I offer
"In a sec… there's something I want to do first." He sits next to me and holds my hand.
"What?" I ask
"Nothing much… just some sloppy makeouts." He holds the back of my neck and leans in…
