Chapter 4
Strange posters, Nepeta thought. Clowns covered his walls, he seemed quite obsessed. To each his own though. Looking over her shoulder she noticed Gamzee staring at her. He turned his head away, pretending to be extremely interested in a bottle of Faygo nearby. She opened her mouth to speak, her tail falling out of her mouth subsequently as she spoke.
"Gamzee?" she asked.
"Yeah Nepeta?" he replied, wondering wait she was about to ask. All he wanted was to listen to her speak, her voice was so smooth and feminine.
"Do you think Karkat will ever like me?" she felt a bit bad for bringing Karkat up, when she saw Gamzee's face flicker with sadness. It was so fleeting she thought she had imagined it. But she knew Gamzee and Karkat were close, she wanted his opinion. Sliding off the table, she sauntered over to where Gamzee stood, still playing with her tail. She looked up into his eyes, awaiting a reply.
"Well I don't motherfucking know honestly." He was torn to whether he would answer her question truthfully and risk hurting her feelings. After a moment of silence he decided it would be best for her, and somewhat advantageous to him.
"To be truthful, I don't think he will. At least not in the way you want." he finished. Nepeta looked crestfallen.
"If its any help to you, there's other trolls around." he said this thinking of himself mostly. "And in the sea too if that motherfucking floats your fancy." he grumbled to himself. However, Nepeta overheard this sentiment.
"Eww no, if all seadweller males are like Erifin I don't think I could go for one of them." she said grimacing, much to Gamzee's satisfaction. He's so creepy, she thought shuddering. Continuing she started thinking of Feferi, the only other seadweller she was acquainted with.
"And I really ship Feferi and Sollux so I could nevfur get between them." she finished. Nepeta thought she saw a glimmer of hope flash in Gamzee's eyes. She had been noticing these slight expressions, actions, and mannerisms that he had been displaying somewhat patently. The way he seemed uncomfortable when she mentioned Karkat's possible affections for her, how he stuttered trying to compliment her, and how he had been looking at her whenever she wasn't looking at him. Could Gamzee possibly like her? Nepeta was good at deciphering other troll's affections for another, whatever manner an affection. Flushed or dark, red, pale, black, grey, she knew all the signs.
