[color=#ff0000]KANKRI: The last time he felt like this toward another person was Latula, a long time ago. He must've been in denial previously, not wanting to think about it or come to terms with it consciously. Now that it's here though.. it must be true, within him. Porrim's excitement and reciprocation, assuring him that it was genuine, made him feel a bit excited as well. Giddy, perhaps. "This feels like a dream, like it isn't quite [i]real.[/i] I never thought I would break my vow of quadrant celibacy.." He murmured aloud as Porrim nuzzled him, and rubbed his chest to his cheek. The physical gesture made his body subtly shudder, a measure of intimate satisfaction and discomfort entwined. He's coming to terms, though, slowly.. "Slow.. yes. That sounds good." He almost squeaked out when she feathered kisses along his cheek.[br][i][/i][br]"Haha.." He nervously lets out a small chuckle, sheepish and shy. "So.. we are matesprits then." Not a question, but a statement. Said aloud to the both of them, as if to seal the deal. He takes in a deep breath, face a tomato, before then slowly exhaling. After that he turns his body, greeting Porrim with a half-hug. "I don't believe I am ready or capable of.. [i]all[/i] the physical or emotional intimacies you may want yet but.. I wish for us to be together. Please be patient with me." His voice was low as he rested his head on her shoulder, eyes mostly shut.[br][i][/i][br]He was curious about those accessories, though.. 03:48:00

Amidst the chaos of being forcibly poofed, Kankri shifted uncomfortably, "This d9es seem t9 6e quite the dilemma.." He spoke to himself quietly. In that same instance, Kankri pushed himself up with his arms, coming to his feet and dusting off his sweater. He adjusted his collar in another moment before taking a moment to survey his surroundings. He'd just continued to stand around and talked to himself as he continued to examine the room. 04:46:33

He was curious about those accessories, though.. [url=https://imgur.com/a/porrim-maryam-05UgcLV][color=#008141]PORRIM:[/color][/url][color=#008141] It may feel like a dream for Kankri, but this whole interaction felt like it could simply be some wild fever dream. “I never tho+ught yo+u wo+uld, either. Let alo+ne with me.” She laughed softly, doing her best not to get too over-excited. Considering her status as a rainbowdrinker and a jadeblood, she was often stronger than those lower on the caste. It’d be bad if she accidentally hurt him so early on.[br] [br] His statement was more forward than she would have expected. She would have expected him to ask, or have her need to be the one to ask. But she certainly wasn’t going to deny it, either way. The blush on her own face was more vibrant than any may have ever seen on her, but her expression made it obvious just how giddy she was, even if she was doing her best to remain calm. “Yes, we are. #<3” As he turned to give her a half hug, she took in the shade of his face, cuddling him closer once he leaned against her. “I’ll do+ my best. As lo+ng as we can be to+gether, that’s all that matters right no+w. We can wo+rk o+n the rest when yo+u feel like yo+u’re ready.” Porrim shifted herself slightly so that she could wrap the blanket around the both of them, no longer concerning herself with covering up her risque sweater any longer. It was mostly hidden between the two of them, anyhow. A shaky breath left her pierced lips, her sud 04:49:53

[color=#ff0000]KANKRI: She could probably bench-press him, couldn't she? :sweattowel:[br][i][/i][br]Seeing Porrim fluster so much over these heartfelt confessions didn't help his composure at all, but it made him feel [i]good.[/i] A warmth in his bloodpumper, being able to make her react in such a way. He gave a little smile at her agreement, then let out another sigh as if he was holding his breath. "Good. #<3. I greatly appreciate your willingness to be patient with me, as well. Thank you Porrim." He said, relief and admiration in his tone. He might've sweat a little bit when that blanket was thrown around him though, remembering what she was wearing last..[br][i][/i][br]When she suddenly moved to claim his lap, though, he almost [i]squawked.[/i] "Mo- [i]Porrim[/i]-" He freudian slipped before quickly correcting himself, now feeling that the doomsday timer has been set. "My goodness, at least warn me first.." His scolding this time was less stressed, since they were now in a quadrant. He was just taken by surprise. His arms take a few beats before they slowly enclose around her, and he [i]carefully[/i] rubs a circle into her back. "... It's a good thing you made that jade-accent sweater already, isn't it?" A little bit of dry, sheepish humor. 05:08:31

Honestly he wasn’t really buying that many people changed their minds about him; or at least this version of him. As she was listing off potential suitors, he was kind of off in his own world. He was still listening, but he was more or less daydreaming about the possibility of drowning in ladies and fellas alike. So many options, so little time. “hopefully they come around y’knovw? id lowve to giwve it a shot if anyone wvants to step up to the challenge.” 05:12:55

[url=https://imgur.com/a/porrim-maryam-05UgcLV][color=#008141]PORRIM:[/color][/url][color=#008141] Being patient was most certainly going to be a challenge for her, but she was more than capable of putting in the effort. Especially for Kankri. It was already difficult to keep herself under control, but she thought she was doing a pretty good job, all things considered. Of course, his little slip did cause her to quirk a brow. There was some curiosity about what he’d nearly called her, but it didn’t take her long to recall him once chiding her about not being his human mother, whatever that was supposed to mean. Maybe he was into that sort of thing? Seemed like she would have to learn about what human mothers do, later.[br] [br] “So+rry, I co+uldn’t help myself.” She spoke with a soft giggle, shuddering slightly at the feeling of his warm hand against her bare back. This sweater didn’t cover much, after all. “Mm. Indeed. And it lo+o+ks so+ go+o+d o+n yo+u.” She had to stop herself from making a more perverse joke, but she leaned in to nuzzle her nose against his cheek again gently. “Kanny… [sub]May I kiss yo+u?[/sub]” Her voice was breathy, showing her excitement, but it made it equally clear that she was doing her best to respect his boundaries. 05:21:58

[url=https://imgur.com/a/aradia-megido-dJVXCsL][color=#A10000]ARADIA:[/url][color=#A10000] “well i guess how patient he is could be debatable but considering the group of trolls he had to deal with i might be inclined to agree despite how he acts” But she also couldn’t blame Karkat for running to hide upon encountering Cronus, considering what she knows about the Ampora’s history in the bubbles. “hes much louder than your vantas but id have to say he doesnt get on other peoples case to the same degree. people would probably mistake him for being much more grumpy than i think he really is! but its not easy to get him out of his shell”[br] [br] 05:35:22

[color=#A10000]It was definitely difficult to recommend suitors for someone else. That sort of thing never really was in her wheelhouse. “maybe kanaya or nepeta would be able to make better recommendations than me considering they know more about quadrants” Although, the majority of Nepeta’s ships were often doomed to fail. “im sure someone will come around eventually though! there are plenty of fish in the sea after all” He didn’t seem too bad to her, but perhaps she was desensitized towards the less charming sides of various Cronus’ and Amporas in general. “you dont seem as bad as people make you out to be in my opinion but i guess i havent known this version of you long enough to have a definite opinion” She pressed her lips together into a line as she thought for a moment. “have you met anyone else from my session yet? i know they usually tend to keep to themselves but did you maybe find any of them interesting?” 05:35:22

[color=#ff0000]KANKRI: He's so glad that Porrim didn't question him about what the fuck he said. Those human movies have been a bad influence on him.. His hand flinched when it first touched her back, having forgotten that it was so exposed, before tentatively coming to a rest and rubbing softly again. He chewed on his lip. "I suppose I shouldn't scold you for it so much, now that we're.. together." He relented, before flustering from the compliment. "...Thank you. It [i]does[/i] look nice, but you've always been good at making clothes and other fashionable assortments-"[br][i][/i][br]His words cut off when she leaned in and nosed at him, and he gave her back another little rub with his thumb. He fidgeted awkwardly, quietly swallowing, then.. "..You may. Please- don't over do it." He agreed, warily. "Not that I think you intentionally would, I just do not want to ruin the moment by getting uncomfortable and/or lecturing you needlessly and causing you undue stress which then might make you distance yourself-"[br][i][/i][br]He's rambling.

[url=https://imgur.com/a/cronus-ampora-homestuck-LiA41][color=#6A006A]CRONUS:[/url][color=#6A006A] Cronus listened to the ram continue her small ramble sesh before getting his word in again about his thoughts on Karkat and Kankri. “im sure he is, not that i got to talk to him much at all, but thats not really here or there.” He shrugged again, moving his cigarette back to his lips, but not letting it go. “i can see it though, him not being nearly as ranty as kankri i mean. i think it wvould be a newv vworld record if anyone could break the wvord count that spills outta that guys mouth in half the time. i can see grumpy though, he looked pissed the fewv times i did get to see him.” He was decent friends with Kankri, but he definitely still had some opinions. 06:49:16

Honestly, if nepeta tried to help him I think she’d fail miserably. As for Kanaya, I think she’d rather double die. “i dont think i really evwer met either of them y’knovw? maybe they vwould knowv somethin’ but vwhos to say. youre right though there is absolutely so many fish in this vwast sea vwe call livwin’. vwell. not liwvin’ per say.” Cronus furrowed his brow, how tf does he follow this up. “vwhatewver dont think too hard about it you knowv vwhat i mean.” He pursed his lips, closing his eyes defeatedly; way to cramp your OWN style. “thanks for thinkin’ that though, its not evweryday a guy like me gets to hear that he doesnt suck all of the time.” Cronus was far too used to people telling him how much of an asshole douche he was so this was a nice change of pace for once. “cant say i havwe. i hawvent been here too long but i did talk to a guy vwho wvas pretty huge, gold, probably has somethin’ to do vwith tuna but wvhos to say. nothin id knowv about. im assumin’ youvwe seen the guy once or twvice.” 06:49:19

[bgcolor=#e61515][color=black]KANKRI:[/color][/bgcolor] He has his own means of getting around the bubbles, his powers lend themself well to it, but he predominantly still uses his active memory to navigate around. He likes to keep his senses faithful as not to rely on his powers too much; turning what is meant to be a beneficial enhancement into a grotesque crutch simply is not his 'style' so-to-speak. He glanced over at Aranea- had she gotten closer? Or was his depth perception still a bit jank from all the bubble wandering? In any event, the Serket's subtle movements went unmentioned, Kankri focusing more on hear words rather than her body. A slight grimace of disdain crept over his features: a mild tug of a frown, a slightly avoidant head turn, and the soft knitting of his brows.[br] [br] "Yes, I 6elieve I kn9w [i]as much as I need t9[/i] as it pertains t9 Karkat and his 9wn Amp9ra." For once, Kankri did not jump at the chance to hear more about Karkat in any regard- not that his interest is gone for the smaller crab, but a lot had happened since last they were even remotely around one another and he didn't wantto have a pusher palpitation at whatever shenanigans someone may have roped his dear star pupil into. His ears slightly perked at her question, "My curi9usity? Hm. I have n9t 6een c9nci9usly curi9us 9f any9ne, s9 it may require s9me slight th9ught."[br] [br] 08:19:37

And think he did, overwriting his previous prerogative of suppressing his search for what he was meant to remember in favor of thinking about what genuinely piqued his inquisition. A soft sigh came from him and he would meet Aranea's gaze as he spoke, "Well, I may wish t9 recant 9n such an ask, 6ut I supp9se I am m9st curi9us 9n any I have n9t seen much 9f; under the assumpti9n that y9u have c9me int9 c9ntact with them y9urself.

It’s very important to establish them early, actually.” She paused for a moment, a soft smile on her lips when she felt his hand flinch away briefly. “Of course, I can’t say it doesn’t make me happy to receive some special privileges from you.” Being able to be so close to him, be it physically or romantically, was most definitely a massive privilege in her own eyes as well as likely many others’ in spite of most saying otherwise. He [i]was[/i] undeniably attractive. “Yes, and yet I feel the model truly does make the outfit work.”[br] [br] His rambling was a bit funny, but she could understand his concerns. Presumably, he had no experience in any of this, so she already knew she shouldn’t let herself get [i]too[/i] eager. But he showed no signs of ceasing his rambling, so she decided instead of waiting for an end that may not come anytime soon, she decided to just move in. She cut him off by pressing her lips against his, sliding her hands up his back before pulling one back so that she could cradle his cheek. Porrim started off gently to test the waters, albeit some little nibbles to his lower lip proved to show that she couldn’t entirely hide her eagerness. 11:30:55

His breath came out in a small hitched gasp when her painted-black lips came into contact with his in a kiss, and his rambling stopped dead in its tracks like a train crash. It would take a few moments before he started kissing back, and it was apparent that he had no god damn idea what he was doing. It was a hesitant and slightly uncoordinated press, eyes lidding then shutting, and his mouth parted subtly when she nibbled his lower lip. Not intentionally, but on a subconscious reaction.[br][i][/i][br]While they kiss he squeezes her gently in the hug, his fingers slowly splaying out over the bare of her back. Rubrubrub.

The powers coming from her blood were harder to ignore, since she couldn’t exactly just turn them off. She had to always be acutely aware of the feelings of those around her, at the very least, whether or not she wanted to be. It was truly a blessing and a curse to have, albeit she would never complain about them.[br] [br] It was rare for Kankri to not jump for more information when Karkat was brought up, but she supposed that what she had mentioned was more akin to gossip about him more than anything. If Kankri wanted to know something, he usually had his own ways of getting information. “It’s not particularly difficult to find information pertaining to Vantases, it seems. I suppose one should expect nothing less from the 8loodline tasked with uniting trollkind.” Her hand lifted to fiddle briefly with the cancer necklace before resting in her lap.[br] [br] 02:50:22

[color=#005682]When he listed off some people who he may be interested in, she brought her hand back up to cup her chin in thought. She hadn’t really seen much of Rufioh or Horuss in a while, but she knew there was a fair share of Damaras wandering about at any given time. Meenah, however, would probably not want Kankri of all people finding out about her whereabouts. “There have 8een a fair amount of different iterations of Damara, 8ut I don’t 8elieve I’ve had any close encounters with them. As for Rufioh and Horuss, I think there might have 8een one or two of each recently, 8ut I haven’t seen or heard anything regarding them since then… Meenah, as always, is as hard to track down as always. I’m sure if you are determined enough you could 8ump into her. I know you have your ways of appearing in the least expected places. As far as I’m aware, though, she has, indeed, 8een up to her usual shenanigans.” 02:50:22

[bgcolor=#e61515][color=black]KANKRI:[/color][/bgcolor] Unifying Trollkind. Right. It's not like Kankri could do that now- this stasis of afterliving is permanent. His right to try is forfeited. Was he jaded about that? Maybe, maybe not. He certainly wasn't going to unpack that again-- come to think of it, the first time he truly sifted through those irritating feelings was with Aranea on that little history trip.. In any event, she was correct; finding out information on a Vantas of any sort wasn't very hard: They Were Bold And Outspoken (commonly, anyways). As Aranea recounted her knowledge on their comrades, Kankri silently did the same, finding that their reports mostly matched: He had yet to see Rufioh, there was one instance of a passing Horuss—but the Crab was too preoccupied with being angry at Kurloz and Meulin to take much note of the Indigo—and a run in with... a [i]couple[/i] of Damaras had been had.[br] [br]He scoffed with a slight laugh at the Cerulean's words as it pertained to Meenah, "I'll 6e sure t9 keep my active eff9rts t9 a minimum then, 6est n9t t9 intrude up9n her dilly-dallying. 9f c9urse, any distur6ances in the 6alance 9f integrity and equality will 6e met with my swift arrival t9 mediate. With any luck, Meenah's picked up a few m9re manners s9 such a thing will n9t 6e needed t99 s99n; I have quite enj9yed 9ur recent talks." 03:16:31

[url=https://imgur.com/a/aranea-serket-nT9dH][color=#005682]ARANEA:[/url][color=#005682] Kankri may not have played an active role in unifying trollkind, but just the fact that he had lived on Beforus was enough to ignite his alternate self’s passion. Even if he felt like he may have been shorted on something or other, it was never part of his Beforan self’s destiny to play an active part. There wasn’t much to unify on Beforus, after all. In the same vein, in order for the SGrub game to be successful there needed to be a much more violent society to raise the next generation of players.[br] [br] 03:51:45

[color=#005682]She couldn’t blame his reaction in regards to Meenah, though. There was no way for her to confidently say whether or not Meenah had picked up any manners since the last time she had encountered Kankri. Meenah wasn’t the rudest of their friends, but she certainly had a personality that was uncommon to find where they were from, not to mention her obvious selfishness. “Whale, I can’t say I know whether or not she will 8e causing any issues anytime soon. At the very least, I can’t imagine her managing to do anything too 8ig to worry a8out anytime soon. (Ignoring the irrelevance of time, here) I imagine we might see her again at some point if something interesting happens! You know how she is a8out, and I quote, ‘snooze-fests.’” As she spoke, she subtly scooted herself closer to him once again. “All of that aside, is there anything interesting you’ve 8een up to? Any interesting encounters? Any… 8ig decisions you’ve had to make?” She leaned forward slightly, an expectant look behind her ghostly eyes. 03:51:49

[color=#a1a100]MITUNA: "W3'R3 FR13ND5H? C00L! 8P" Coming from him that could either be insulting or genuine.. He hasn't forgotten how Kankri likes to talk about him, his issues, [i]and[/i] his fine ass H4ML37. "N4H, YU0 D1DN7 5C4R3 M33. 1M JU57 PL4Y1NG 50M3 G4M35! 1 D0N7 KN0WW WH3R3 D4M4R4 0RR 7LU1P W3N7 4ND 1 D0N7 W4N7 70 G37 L057." He then raises a controller in his hand. "D1D Y0U W4N7 700 PL4Y 50M3?" 04:18:44

[bgcolor=#e61515][color=black]KANKRI:[/color][/bgcolor] As far as Kankri was concerned, the overt lack of violence may have done well to cultivate a reasonable amount of non-aggressive problem solving on Beforus, but even with thatwhat he saw was a system still built upon the idea that the weak—and by extension the lowerborn—were inferior in some way and thus the power imbalance was obvious-- at least to him, but then again, he had a wholly unique view considering his off-spectrum hue. It was weird to think about it now and- wait... what? Were his ears deceiving him, or did Aranea just say [i][u]WHALE[/u][/i] as opposed to the non-pun-oriented supplemental word known as 'Well'? He turned his head to look at her, brows quirking a bit as slight scrutinizing squint came to his eyes... Surely not, right? [i]Right?[/i] What reason would Aranea have to [i]lie[/i] to him of all trolls? Maybe she just said it... oddly drawn out. Yes. That makes sense. He thinks?[br] [br]The scrutiny is swiftly dropped at her questioning, now a bit more cognizant of how close The Spider had crept upon him. She was rather invested in his response, huh? Just look at the enthrallment in her eyes! "Hmm.. well, in terms 9f enc9unters I met y9u- the elder [i]miscreant[/i] 9f y9u that sailed many seas, that is. I have 6een w9rking t9 make her m9ve that g9df9rsaken 69at, it's a 6it 9f an appallment t9 the eyes, 6ut as 9f n9w we have reached s9mewhat amica6le gr9und. Y9u w9uld have 6een quite the tall w9man, 04:25:14

[br] [br]He brought a hand up, gently prodding at his temple with a pair of fingers, "The last 6ig thing t9 happen was a c9stume party that I helped plan in c9njuncti9n with the y9unger Megid9- it was unf9rtunate n9t t9 see y9u, I was sure y9u w9uld have had quite the 9utfit picked 9ut. As f9r decisi9ns..." Did THAT have something to do with what he was forgetting? Hm. Maybe he was supposed to decide on something? Like their next trip out? He DID say they should hangout more often, "Well... 9ddly en9ugh, quite a few. I... 9pened up my quadrants rather recently-" Ah, here it is! "-and even further than that, decided t9 take 9n pale r9mance. I was graced with a m9irail- it was unexpected, especially the fact that she is 9ne 9f the humans. And-" now here it is, for real this time, right? "-I... [i]may[/i] 6e in an 9dd kismesisstude with Kurl9z and Meulin- th9ugh, after their latest... [u]infracti9n[/u], I am unsure 9n where we stand."....that's it? 04:25:36

[url=https://imgur.com/a/aradia-megido-dJVXCsL][color=#A10000]ARADIA:[/url][color=#A10000] Well, she wasn’t sure that he was less ranty than Kankri. At the very least, his rants were of a different genre, if she had to put it into words, but she wasn’t too concerned about trying to explain it. “im sure its in their genetics or something but karkat would probably be best described as the angrier one out of the two. he can definitely be very wordy though! there were a lot of memos that he forced us to read” A soft laugh left her lips as she said this, her cheeks dimpling further in the process.[br] [br] The majority of her friends would probably be less than inclined to help with an Ampora’s romance endeavors, let alone one they didn’t even know personally. Another little laugh escaped her as he tried to recover from something of a fumble. She raised a hand to gently poke the furrow of his brows. “well this is the afterlife so you arent too far off! this place gave people a chance to continue existing in some form after their demise!” It was certainly a better alternative to wandering the planet aimlessly, especially if the rest of their race was to be wiped out regardless. “but youve been pretty good to me as well so maybe youre just worrying too much” Aradia lifted herself up to press a kiss to his temple before settling next to him again.[br] [br] 06:02:08

[color=#A10000]“hmm… if i had to guess that was probably the helmsman. if i had to borrow some information from the general aristocracy of alternia that would be sollux’s ‘ancestor.’ but we never really believed in that ancestry stuff since theyre nothing more than someone from a really long time before us that shared enough in common with us to share the same sign” Aradia shrugged her shoulders, looking away from him. “im not sure if ive interacted with him directly or not but i never would have had the opportunity to see him up close if the dreambubbles didnt exist! the empress and, by extension, her ship were hardly ever on alternia” 06:02:09

[url=https://imgur.com/a/kankri-vantas-homestuck-Jd8R7][color=#FF0000]KANKRI:[/url][color=#FF0000] “I w9uld h9pe y9u c9uld c9me t9 see me as an acquaintance despite all y9ur a6n9rmalities. S9 yes, I’d c9nsider us friends 9f s9rts.” Kankri was just a tad confused by Mituna’s questioning of their relationship status, but that was no matter. “9h I see Damara and Latula are here as well hmm…” He crossed his arms, placing a hand on his chin in thought. “Yes I supp9se it w9uld 6e rather pr96lematic f9r every9ne if y9u were t9 g9 9ff 9n y9ur 9wn. I mean, wh9 kn9ws what c9uld happen.” Backhanded as always. He’d uncross his arms, letting them fall to his sides as Mituna offered him the controller. “N9, I’m quite alright, thank y9u Mituna. I 6elieve y9ur games f9r wrigglers t9 6e a tad t99 intellectually understimulating and frankly a 6it triggering in nature.” 06:04:21
