After everybody settled down, Kanaya decided it was time to get down to business. Everyone sat on the hospital beds where John and Nepeta lay as Kanaya stood up front to announce.
"So, i have observed that Karkat does indeed still have a need for a place to occupy officially," Kanaya began. "Karkat has been traveling between his own home and the Strider's. I purpose we make one of the places his official residence,"
"Huh?" You say. These words are so purpendicular and high class, you don't know what it means.
"Sis here is sayin' you need to stay in one house for good," Gamzee explains.
You almost make a glare in his direction. Gamzee understood that?!
"Yes," Kanaya confirmed. "Who else agrees that Karkat should stay vacant at his own hive?"
Some of the trolls mumbled to each other as John remained silent. You half frown. This is slightly unfair concerning how Kanaya didn't inquire of your own opinion.
Okay, she's obviously rubbing off on you. Stop thinking in a high class manner, will ya?
"Hey, why can't i choose?" You almost yell over everyone.
"Well i considered this variable also," Kanaya nods. "Yet i came to the logical assumption that you can not decide for yourself. You have made my conclusion quite crystal clear concerning your own actions,"
"I still have a choice, don't i?" You whine.
"Karkat's got a point," John speaks up. "I think he deserves some part in this,"
You stare at him. "So now you defend me? After all this crap?"
John shrugs. "I can't hold a grudge forever..."
"Aside from the blossoming platonic relationship," Kanaya sighs, crossing her arms. "We need to come to a desicion."
"I wanna stay," You immediately sputter.
"Yes, we all have knowledge of that," Kanaya says patiently. "Yet we need to make an analytical choice that provides closure for everyone, instead of our current unarranged visiting hours."
"I think Karkitty should go home." Nepeta purrs. "After all, we made his hive brand mew,"
"Nepeta, are you sure you want him around?" Equius utters.
"I heard that." You snarl.
Equius ignores you and continues to whisper to Nepeta. You huff, rather annoyed. Equius seems to be hiding something you haven't figured out yet. Maybe he just hated your past self and can't get over it.
"I say Karbro does whatever he feels like." Gamzee speaks up. "We can't restrain a brother from his wishes,"
"Indeed, we all would love to do that." Kanaya intrudes again. "But as you can see, that problem solver is not as efficient as we'd hope to observe."
"We can't just force him away." Gamzee beings to argue. "We just did that, and look where he got Nepeta and John."
"It's not my fault." You hiss.
"Gamzee, i would prefer it if you let the rest of us debate rather than just you and i," Kanaya inclines.
"Yeah, cause like, we need to all participate." Vriska butts in. "I mean, look what happened to John when Karkat tried to make a desicion. Isn't that what aaaaaaaalways happens when he tries to fix stuff?"
"What are you talking about?" You complain, frustrated.
"Whenever you try to take the lead, somebody gets hurt." Vriska rephrases sharply.
"Leave him alone, he doesn't remember." Sollux reminds edgily. "This isn't his matter to discuss anymore, he can't even think straight."
"That's what i'm tryyyyyyyying to prove," Vriska carries on. "But nobody wants to listen to me. Nobody ever listens to me."
"Nobody listens to you because you're annoying as ever." Sollux suddenly gets more agressive in tone. "You ruined a lot for us too, especially for me!"
"Sollux!" Kanaya interrupts with a snap. "We are off subject, and it is not your concern anymore."
"It's not my concern? I don't think you realize how much of a pest your friend is." Sollux retorts.
"Oh, Iiiiiiii'm the pest." Vriska bites back.
"Guys, shut up!" Dave suddenly yells.
Everyone stops and stares at Dave. Even you do, surprised he could be so loud. Dave huffs.
"I think that Karkat should stay at my place until he gets his memories back. It's only fair for him to enjoy himself for the last few days he doesn't remember any of his problems." Dave says.
Everyone quietly whispers to each other. You nod and give Dave a thumbs up for making everybody stop and listen. Dave gives a casual nod back.
"I think we have come to an agreement." Kanaya sighs, seeming tired. "Dave had a valid plan, which we all agree seems about fair. Karkat shall stay with you both until his memories are back. He will most likely remember this conversation, and know where to go."
You don't say anything. Kanaya's wrong, remember? The doctor said you won't remember your amnesiac expiriences. You'll forget the entire time since your re-awakening. You'll be your old self again, like nothing happened. You bite your tongue on this one. You don't want to make anyone feel sorrowful. It would crush Nepeta, knowing all you shared with her. Dave would also be fairly hurt. You wouldn't share another single pancake with that boy. And John...
Who knows, it might even depress John.
