Hello everyone! It's been a long time since I've been on here, my apologies. I realize some of you may want to kill me for dropping of the face of the Earth, but I'm back again! Basically I've had to deal with school stuff. I still kinda am since finals are coming up really soon for me, but I'll be out on summer break June 14th. So we all have that to look forward to ^ ^. Wish me luck in math!
Not only that, but I've been trying to concentrate on comics and original stories. I'm most likely gonna make a Tumblr page soon so I can post comics and character art and shit of the same nature. Also, I believe Tumblr is a newer way of keeping in touch with friends (sort of) and since most of my friends all have Tumblrs and I don't, it's time for an upgrade. Adding on to other ways to get in touch with me, a new Flipnote Hatena page is gonna launch really soon. If you have a 3DS, go to the internet store and you'll see in the coming soon page something called 'Flipnote Studio 2' (I think. It's something like that!) I was a part of the original Hatena community, but I then stopped because I came across fanfiction, this. Since there's a new Hatena coming out, I wanna try it again! As soon as I can get that set up I'll post a link for it on my profile (same thing with Tumblr). Look out for it over the summer!
Also, I'm currently fifteen turning sixteen (this November), and it has come to my attention that I can learn to drive and get a part-time job—two things I really want to do! Of course if that happens there will be less updates with stories and the Tumblr thing if I get it done. However if I DO get the Tumblr thing done I'll have that AND Fanfiction (and Hatena, which definitely is going to happen) to update for you guys' internet viewing pleasure. This entire thing will be a slow process, but it will all be coming along sometime in the future.
Anyways, this story I think is coming along slowly. I've thought of different ways to go with it, all those ways coming out with the ending I want, but it'll take a while. If I work on it like I did with "The Problem with having a Seadweller Girlfriend", it should take a good part of my summer vacation. Not all of it, but a good chunk. I don't mind! I like fanfiction, it gives me something to do. All I'm trying to say is this story is gonna take a while the way it's currently going. I think it's probably uninteresting the way it is now, but don't worry—it's gonna pick up soon. I don't wanna rush this completely, but some chapters will probably be rushed. I know that rushing is a habit for some authors here (no offence to ANYONE), I also know that drawing on a story for FOREVER is a bad habit, one I have if I'm paying WAY TOO MUCH attention to details. I don't know—for me it'll probably feel like I'm rushing, but I guess it really depends on what YOU guys, the viewers, think. But I'm trying to get better!
Moving on, I don't own Homestuck or the characters. Enjoy the chapter! And go check out MetaGiga's profile cause she's awesome :]

"Here, one of you two, drink this." Kanaya holds a bottle of some weird liquid in front of me and Eridan. It's green and thick, looks like it has lumps in it, and smells disgusting.
"Kan…are you tryin' to fucking kill uth?"Eridan stares at the bottle in disgust. Can't blame him, that shit looks like some sort of poison.
"Please. If I were trying to kill you I'd simply hack you to pieces with my chainsaw." Well that's a pleasant thought. "This is a temporary antidote." Oh shit, really?
I grab it, "Are you serious?"
"Yes Sollux, I'm serious. All you need is for either you or Eridan to drink the entire bottle and you'll be temporarily returned to your respective bodies for precisely twenty-four hours. It's rather easy to make as well, I've already made a few doses should you need them. See, it seems finding the true antidote is going to take longer than I anticipated, and I figured you two would want to be able to go about in your bodies and not have to go through the ordeal of trying to pretend to be each other." Oh my god, Kanaya is fucking amazing! "However, if you use it you can't use it again for twenty-four hours, you have to wait."
"Why do we have to do that?" I ask, feeling stupid. Why didn't I just keep my mouth shut? Eridan looks at me like I have two heads. I glare at him back; what the fuck are you staring at!
"You have to wait because this is very powerful. If you drink it too much without giving your bodies time to rest and recover well…well, let's not think about that. But you do understand the circumstances now, correct?" Kanaya tells me. I nod at her. That sounds just plain bad from the way she said it, so I don't want to try it.
"I figured you knew at least that much, Thol." Eridan says. You wanna go motherfucker?
"Oh yeah, why don't drink it if you know so much then, asshole?" I shove it at him. Hey, I don't wanna drink this shit. Kanaya said only one of us has to drink, I'm not gonna do it. Eridan takes the bottle out of my hand.
"I will thank you very much!" I'm glad this guy is such a dumbass. He drinks the whole bottle and looks at me all proud. His grin then falters into a frown as he holds stomach and starts groaning. "Oh god, what the fuck ith IN that?"
"Don't reject it or else it won't work." Kanaya tells him. He starts moaning like he's dying or something, and then he collapses on the ground. Did he pass out?
"Is he alright?" KK asks. I look over my shoulder and see him standing behind me looking completely normal. Where's he been? He looks fine, so I guess the spell he cast on himself by accident has finally worked out of his system due to the antidote Kanaya gave him earlier. Well I'm glad he's okay. KK doesn't deserve weird shit happening to him, he really didn't do anything wrong. And he's not a bad guy. He really doesn't deserve it. I open my mouth to say something…
It feels like I was just smacked in the back of my head with a rock. The sudden shock makes me fall on the ground. Everything is black, and I want to try and push myself up but I have no strength. Everything hurts, I can't see anything, I can't even open my mouth up to say something…what's happening to me now?
Then everything suddenly comes back to me. I have a headache and this really bad taste in my mouth, but I'm fine. What the hell was that? I slowly open my eyes and sit up, readjusting my glasses. I notice my arm looks different; I'm not wearing long sleeves anymore and it looks thinner. Wait a sec, I look down at myself. Holy shit!
"It worked!" I smile at myself. What is that taste and why does it make me want to throw up? I look up at KK but he avoids my eyes. Is he alright? I thought he would be happy about this, wouldn't he? There must be something wrong.
"Oh for the—couldn't you have fell somewwhere more fuckin' comfortable, Sol?" Eridan groans as he pushes himself up. Oh thank god. I don't have his voice, his body, thank GOD. It might be temporary, but at the moment I'm back to normal! Oh yeah, I just remembered…
I get up, "Here, get up." I hold out my hand for Eridan. He looks up at me with big eyes.
"Thanks Sol," he takes my hand and I pull him up with a dumb smile. This is gonna be good. I glare at him and sweep my leg in a swift motion in the 'darkest place', making him fall to his knees. "OWW, SHIT!" he screams. Is it just me, or does his voice sound higher? "What the fuckin' hell, Sol!" Ha, he has tears in his eyes. Priceless.
"That'th for cathting a thpell on me. And if you didn't like that I've got plenty more for all kindth of different reathonth. Tho shut the fuck up, fish fuck." Ah it feels good to be back. Seeing this asshole in his rightful place just makes me feel good, you know? "Now get me a breath mint or thomething, I need it." I tell him. He stays in his fetal position softly crying. Okay, now this is just pathetic.
"Here, for both of you." Kanaya gives a small bottle filled with what looks like soda to me and him. Drinking it takes that head ache and bad taste away completely. I needed that. "If you want to go back your hive I'm not stopping you. Just make sure I can contact you. I'll be here for the time being, alright?" she tells me.
"Yeah that'th fine." I say. I look back to KK, "Are we going?" he finally looks at me. Wait…what is that look? That's…I don't know what to make of it. Is he…I really don't know. He walks over to me, almost runs, and latches onto my arm.
"We'll be back later," he says. He pulls me out of the underground part and out into the entrance. He shuts the door behind us and takes a deep breath.
"KK, are you alri—" I'm cut off by him pulling the collar of my shirt down to his height and him pressing his lips on mine. What the fuck? He…why is he kissing me? Now, of all times? Something must have happened. I start to pull away but he pulls me back down. Hey calm down, it's hard to breathe, KK. He finally lets me go and he wraps his arms tightly around my waist, burying his face in my shirt. "KK, what'th the matter?" I ask him. His response is he grabs my wrist and starts to pull me somewhere, running the whole way.
He pulls me into his hive, which is strangely close to the shore. We go up to his respiteblock and he locks the door behind us. I don't hear his lusus or anything. We're alone.
"KK, what'th wrong? There'th thomething weird about you today." I ask again.
He hugs me again. "I missed you," his voice trembles. Wait, he isn't… He pulls me back down to kiss me again. He doesn't let me go, even puts his tongue in. I accept it. It's not like I haven't been thinking about things like this, but we haven't done anything like this. Anything this deep, I mean. Hell, when was the last time we just kissed? That was a while ago. This, now…it's like a shock.
I finally pull away to catch my breath, "What'th wrong, KK? You can tell me…" I notice something weird. KK looks away in some attempt to hide it, but I catch before he does. He's tearing up. Not only that but he's blushing, two things I've never seen him do. But that's not the point. The color is…weird. It's kind of like AA's, but a lot brighter. I hold his face in my hands and gently pull him to face me again. Bright red… He's bright red.
"I know. I'm a freak." He's trying so hard to hold back the tears but they don't stop. "But, I've missed you. Really missed you, Sollux. I'm-I'm losing it, I can't pull myself together…and…god, I've fuckin' missed you." He hides his face in my shirt and starts crying. KK…
I wrap my arms around him and hold him. "You're KK, not a freak." I tell him. He pulls away to look me in the eyes. I feel myself blushing as I pull him closer and say, "I've missed you too." We kiss. It's deep and…I want more. I can barely breathe, but I don't care. Right now, all I care about is KK. I want him, and nothing else.
~oxoXoxo~
