Jade nods to Rose and starts circling Dave again. "Hello human who weaves through the trees, what brings you into my land smelling so delicious. Do you perhaps have a treat for me?"
Dave glances out into the audience then back at Jade. "I've got this shitty ass excuse for soup here I'm supposed to give to cougar grandma to make her feel better."
Jade giggles a bit. "Soup you say? To grandmother in the woods? That's such a long way! Why don't you leave the soup with me and I'll take it to her myself! I'm a wolf you see, so I'm much faster than you!"
Dave snorts and leans in close to Jade putting his lips right next to her ear. "I'll race you to the finish line, wolf. The winner gets the prize."
Jade grins putting her hands behind her back. She leans back on her heels, then forward to her toes before slowly moving around Dave. "A race it is. See you at the finish line." With a wave she skips off stage.
Dave turns to raise a brow at Rose.
Red knew he'd have to use his brains to defeat the wolf in a race.
A snort sounds from the audience.
Rose glares out at Bro, her angry purple gaze pointed right at the camera.
So Red took a small detour to the bird's n-
"I'd rather just race her and skip all of this."
"Dave it's in the script!" Rose scolds her hand on her hip.
"We all know that no matter what I do the wolf will still be at the house first so let's just get to grandma so I can give her some love." Dave wiggles his brows.
"John worked hard on this the least you could do is let us-"
"No its okay." A boy peeks around the curtains at Rose. His hair is tousled in an obvious attempt at mastering the 'bed head' look. He is wearing thick framed glasses and his blue eyes sparkle in the stage lighting.
"See that Rose, he doesn't care. His care for skipping ahead is even less than the pants he's not wearing." Dave's smirk is smug as he watches John's cheeks turn bright red.
Rose raises a curious brow and steps around to see behind the curtain. "Oh my goodness John. You're in your underwear."
John wraps the curtain around himself, flashes of bare chest now visible to the camera. "I was in the middle of changing into my costume!"
"I like this costume you should keep it all the Egbert." Dave grins and lifts his shades up to wink.
John's eyes widen his whole face bright red.
"Oh my god this is so fucking stupid!" Karkat's curses ring through from backstage. "Stop hiding like a woman and get some damn pants on John if we're skipping ahead that means your scene is coming up lets go! Sollux shut off the lights! Tavros close the damn curtain. I can't believe we're changing the whole fucking story just for him."
The curtain starts to close, the part wrapped around John clung tightly to his chest until Karkat walks out and rips it out of his grip.
The curtain closes completely, and everything goes dark.
