A.N. I love you all. And, if you want, post ships you want to see in this story in the reviews, and I'll see if I can make em' happen (If they fit in with my plans e.e) Okay I need to post this before it dissapears from my brain. School n stuff started, n' now I'm scrambling to find time to write. So here's a short one just for you guys while I try to find time to write some large sizeded ones. The next chap will come in either 5,000 words, or I'll post two in the same day. Either way, SORRY!

"uhh... why... Why am I chosen as the... uhh... weakest?"

The stares that were shot at him after his comment were enough to have him flinch back. "Oh... uhh... Right..."

Tavros was chosen.

And he was terrified.

But not because he had to go into this blind and alone. Oh no. that was far from the truth. He was terrified because he WASN'T going alone. It was a unanimous decision that the game would be played with a few rule bendings, thanks to Gamzee and his "rule book." One of those bent rules was that only half of the people were going to be client players, and the other half was going to accompany one of the clients to their world.

So, in short, they paired up.

Kanaya Rose.

Karkat Dave.

Sollux Eridan.

Equius Nepeta Terezi (These three would enter last).

Gamzee Jade.

And Tavros Vriska.

THAT was what he was afraid of.

It was like they drew straws to pick the pairings, and only a few got what they wanted.

Which… is… Kind of exactly what they did. What a coincidence that everyone seemed to be paired either Perfectly…. Or… The exact opposite of perfectly. Tavros was one who got the short end of the stick, there.

So, now, as he stared at the trolls with frightened eyes, Vriska standing above him with an evil sneer on her mouth, he could feel his brown blood draining from his face.

Rufio. Rufio, help me! If Rufio was here, he would stand up, and demand that he had a different partner! He would! And so should I!... Yeah. I'm going to do it! He looked up into the trolls faces, the boundless determination he just gained quickly draining from him once more. "Uhh..."

"Let's get started!" Vriska almost shouted over him, pushing down on the handles of his wheelchair, causing the front to lift off the ground. She leaned against it, causing his seat to wobble up and down constantly, threatening to tip. Fortunately, if it tipped, Vriska wouldn't have an arm rest, so she kept it upright. For now.

"Wait, hold on, fuckass!" Karkat shot Vriska a look. "Don't you think we should PROBABLY think about this some more before we throw you both into the Land of Shit and Fuck?"

"Nope!"

"I, for once, side with Vriska on this endeavor. I believe the game should be instigated promptly. We can continue discussions once the duo is inside the game. Communication should, and will not be cut between those in the incicosphere, and those not." Rose crossed her legs, sitting on an old tree stump next to Kanaya, looking up at the group with her purple eyes. Kanaya nodded curtly, blinking once.

"Uhh... Can't we... uhh... at least wait for Jade and... uhh... Dave to get back?"

"Whyyyyyyyy?" Vriska wailed, leaning closer to Tavros with a grimace and a whine. Tavros flinched slightly, frowning.

"So they... uhh... know what's going on?"

"Hmm... Tavroth theems to make a point there. We need everyone to be on the thame page before we dive headfirtht into thith."

"Uuuuuuuugh fiiiiiiiine!" Vriska let out an exasperated sigh.

"FLOWERS!"

"yes."

"TREES!"

"Yes."

"GRASS!"

"Yes."

"ROBOTS!"

"Broken ones, yes."

"GLASSES!"

"Yes."

"ISSSEDUUFLLEMMMUH!"

"Uhh... Yes."

"WHOO!"

"Yes."

"Okay. I'm done waiting. Let's get going." karkat let out a sigh. "It's not like they'll be too confused. We'll just explain it when they get back."
