"Hello there Horrus, Equius, how are you boys?"

Equius waves at me and Horrus flashes his lightweight creepy grin that I've adjusted to.

"Oh, hello Kankri, I honeighstly wasn't expecting you to be here of all places." Horrus said, pushing his goggles up on to his forehead as he spoke, revealing his friendly blue eyes.

"Yes, I wasn't planning to be here. Gamzee practically begged me to come with him, and I couldn't say no anymore."

"Ah, I see." Horrus said with a light nod.

"G-Gamzee?" Equius asked, a light sweat falling over him.

Equius and Gamzee… don't get along very well. Once he noticed Gamzee over on one of the horses waiting patiently, he ducked a bit behind the controls. At least the Leijons or Pyropes weren't here… I might have had some problems then. I assured Equius that everything was fine, he was on his medication again, and he was calm. I then said goodbye to them and went back beside Gamzee, as people were beginning to get a bit testy because it hadn't started yet.

"What were you up to Kankbro?"

"Oh, I just saw some friends of mine and thought it polite to say hello and see how they were doing."

"Oh. That's pretty motherfucking cool bro."

He smiled at me lightly and I smiled back as the ride began. It was ridiculous and childish but… it was ridiculously fun. Once it stopped, Gamzee and I were both laughing.

"See, now, what'd I tell you Kankbro?"

"Yes, I guess you were right Gamzee." I said and smiled lightly as we moved to leave the ride.

"Oh, Kankri, wait!" I heard Horrus call. I turned to find him moving towards me.

"Yes Horrus?" I asked once he was in front of me.

"If you see Nepeta, Meulin, or Rufio running around, could you tell them to stop around here? I haven't maneaged to locate them." He said his awkward smile still present.

"Oh, if I happen to run into them I most certainly will. Alright, if that is all, I'll see you later Horrus."

"Ah, yes, thank you." He said smiling once more then going back to let the next round of people in.

Gamzee and I then left the ride. He grabbed my hand again, but this time we just walked, the Carousel's music fading again. We were soon making our way through a slightly crowded walk way lined with game and sale booths. The Lalondes and Maryams teamed up on booths. Roxy and Porrim were running a rather packed kissing booth. I tried to hide my face from Porrim, but she had already seen me.
