Third person POV
While a certain shaded cool kid and a certain movie nerd are playing ultimate truth or dare, consisting of truths like "who to bang?" And dares like "kiss me." And gay things like that. A knock is heard from the door. Scrambling, they put their clothing back on, which was due to a dare of "bathe naked in ice water" for John and Dave's was the opposite, being "Bathe naked in almost boiling water".
John scurries to the door, slamming it open. "Yes?" Instead of seeing Vriska, who said that she'd come over and join in on Truth or Dare, he saw a blonde girl, with a chipper expression, arguing with Karkat, who was being surprisingly emotional compared to what John knew of him (which wasn't much).
"HELL. NO." He screams, red in the face. "I AM ABSOLUTELY *NOT* GOING TO ROOM WITH THOSE TWO MORONS!"
John begins to talk "um... Hello may I help you?" Absolutely ignored, the argument continued.
"Come on Karks! Itllll bees perf! Like, think of allz of zhe gayness!" The blonde says, slurping all of her words together, like she'd been drinking recently.
"NO. NO. NO!" Karkat says.
That's when he notices John standing in the doorway, utter confusion plastered on his face. Almost immediately, Karkat's angry face switched from raging to guilty.
"Sorry for the noise." He says quietly, looking away.
John looks at Karkat, a feeling of nostalgia welling up within him.
"Um, did you need anything?" John asks, trying not to ask Karkat any personal questions.
"Rite." The blonde says, turning to John. "Karks is now rooming w/ u nd Davey. My nameses Roxy BTW." She then skips off, leaving John and Karkat alone in the hallway. There was also Dave, shouting from the other room about how busy he and John were, and how he was going to bathe in Apple Juice if not for the interruption.
"So." John says "you wanna play truth or dare?"
It was Karkat's turn to dare John, and Karkat decided to do something devious and cruel. I mean, if he knew John once and it pains him now, he should be able to use this to his advantage. Keeping his innocent, and introverted persona on, he looks at John. "I dare you to eat 10 Betty Crocker cakes without drinking water or vomiting it up after."
John's happy expression turned to a dark one as he stared at Karkat, glaring hideously.
"You are a terrible person!" He says, but he thinks differently 'how did he know about my weakness?'
After consuming the 10 Betty Crocker cakes, John felt sick. And Dave was rolling on the floor laughing like a maniac. While Karkat sat at the table, rubbing some dust or whatever, and smiling faintly, as if he was remembering a good time that wouldn't come back.
Dave notices this expression, and takes note of it.
After playing truth or dare, Karkat gets up, and moves to one of the soft beds in the double bedroom, playing with a fold in the silken sheets. There was a double bedroom and a single one. You hoped for the single, because you already had to suffer through three years of rooming with Dave, the fourth year consisted of an experiment cage, shared with 11 others.
