TWO HUNDRED THRITY NINE: STRIDER!

"What are you doing back?" Dimentio demanded to Red who had knocked on the castle doors rather than barging in.

"Don't act as though I'm an enemy." Red scolded, "Without me, Acro wouldn't have been."

"Been what?"

"Been anything." Red answered, pushing past him, "As it is, the change was a bit more dramatic than previously thought, is that Homestuck cosplay supplies?" She pointed at all the face paint and candy corn colored horns smeared and scattered everywhere.

"Apparently." Dimentio at least had a name to the thing annoying him. "How do you mean more dramatic? How much more dramatic are we talking?"

"Well the warehouse is nearly destroyed," Red commented, picking up a pair of shades that Ewtad had dropped as he scurried up the stairs. "Acro is knocked out." Red chuckled as she slipped the shades on, "And in a very un-ironic way."

"That makes no sense. Do you even know what ironic means?" Dimentio asked.

"Does it matter? Asking about it just makes it un-ironic." Red shrugged. "Look, just be Strider about it. Let the irony fill you in an ironic way and slam out some sick jams to calm down."

"That makes no sense!" Dimentio shouted after Red who went to the kitchen.

"In a purely ironic way," Icefox mentioned, hurrying down the stairs in a red and white shirt and shades. A record disc was on her new shirt and that was the only thing that decorated it, "It does."

"No, it doesn't-why are you dressed like that!?"
