Wow. Two chapters in one night. This is exciting. It's two thirty in the morning, though, so I need to get some sleep. I'll update again tomorrow, hopefully. I'm really feeling this story right now. Anyways, I hope you like it. Enjoy!
Chapter Twenty-Six
"What're you motherfuckers trying to say?"
"We want you to host a party," Kanaya said with a smile to the red-eyed teen. "You see, Karkat and I do not have the ability to throw this party, but you would! And it would be very fun, don't you think, Gamzee?"
"That's pretty true, friend. Parties are very fun," Gamzee said, removing his beanie and fluffing up his mess hair. "I'll host your party, Kanaya, but you've got to promise to bring the fun, motherfucker!"
Kanaya smiled. "I promise."
"Uh, are you going to make this a drug-free party?"
"Keep the drugs and drinks isolated and away from any involuntary parties and we'll be fine," Karkat said.
"Sure thing, best friend!" Gamzee went to hug Karkat.
"Do not touch me; you smell like rabbit piss."
The plan was set into motion. Kanaya had spent a few hours hand-making invitations (with the help of a certain purple-haired boy who happened to have very nice cursive writing). Gamzee got the booze and the drugs, not that Kanaya or Karkat cared about that. Karkat worked with Dave to create a good, long list of music to listen to. Everything worked out perfectly.
Vriska chatted John that night.
AG: so have you heard a8out the party yet?
EB: yeah! i'm super excited!
AG: sounds like it. weird that Gamzee is throwing a party though...
EB: he throws a lot of parties

She sighed and leaned back in her chair.
AG: a party sounds nice actually. fuck shit up and all that 8usiness. think someone will call the cops on him this time?
EB: they always do! i have to go. see you tomorrow night!
AG: 8ye john
John got up to answer the knock on the door, knowing who was behind it. "Hey, Dave."
"Did you get my message?"
"Of course," John said. "You were able to delete the footage?"
"From the camera," Dave said, sitting on John's bed and shutting the blinds for good measure. "I have no idea if she has it on her computer."
"Maybe I can ask Jake to talk to Aranea about it?"
"Do you really want to get Jake and Aranea involved in this?"
"If it involves getting that footage back, yes," John said. "I'm not ready to be a child porn star! I have so much to live for."
"You sure you don't want to be a child porn star?"
"Dave!"
"Sorry, sorry," Dave said, leaning against the wall. "If you want to talk to Jake, talk to Jake. I know Bro is having him over today, so if you want to head over and try to catch him…"
"I'll just chat him tonight," John said. "On another topic… How do you feel about the party tomorrow night?"
"I'm not all that excited. It'll just be Gamzee with some weird LSDs sitting in an empty room covered in his own bodily fluids and gargling soda." Dave shrugged. "But Karkat says it's going to be a super epic party. I guess I have to go so I can watch it blow up in his face."
John laughed. "It's supposed to be great. Everyone's going. And I'm going to drag you with me whether you like it or not."
"Great," Dave said. "Is Sollux going to be there?"
"Probably," John said. "And I hear Eridan is going with Feferi."
"Really?"
"I know," John said. "That could've just been Nepeta being crazy though. Like how she said she was going with her brother."
"They're related? I thought they were dating."
John paused a moment. "I don't even know their relationship. They're just inseparable. So let's leave that alone."
"Agreed," Dave said, shaking his head. "I'd rather do what I came over here to do."
"Watch lame movies in our underwear and eat foods with trans fats?"
"Pretty much, yeah."
