[Hey there, Vatheon! Time for a homely little broadcast of a cozy looking ...  stable? Since when did Vatheon have horses? Must be new. The screen pans slowly, revealing a vast open field, bordered by a rickety white fence. Sora's voice speaks off screen:]

Hey guys- check out what showed up at Nostalgia Nook!

[And then woa! Fluffy yellow feathers invade the screen. The SFC shakes as the person holding it begins to laugh. Sora swivels the SFC on himself. His hood is caught in the beak of a rather large bird. Behind him are several more, nearly twice Sora's height and scattered throughout the field.]

They're called Chocobos. Some are pretty friendly. The guy at the stable? He says I can have one if I take good care of it! [Another Chocobo head bobs into the screen, nibbling at the end of a spike of Sora's hair. He doesn't seem to mind.] You can even ride them, but you gotta train em' first.

Oh. And when you sing, sometimes they'll dance. Watch!

[The screen swivels around, squaring on an unassuming Chocobo several yards ahead. Sora clears his throat, and begins to whistle a tune. The bird in question quirks its head at the SFC and surprise, surprise, it actually begins to dance! It bobs, sways, rolls its head, warking rather excitedly, drawing attention of other ones nearby who more or less begin to do the same.]

[Just when things start getting interesting, that's when it all stops: there's a loud, irritated wark right behind the SFC. Sora has halted his musical performance and the screen has wandered away from the dancing chocobo as if Sora has become distracted offscreen. Could be trouble...]


Uhh.... hey there... You want some greens, is that it?

I'm sure I've got some around here. Hang on a sec....H-hey!

Wait, what're you - Oh no!!

[The screen finally jerks around, catching a flash Sora being tugged backwards, his hood caught in the beak of a rather irate looking bird. The broadcast stops.]

[Still not getting why it's such a big deal. In fact, Sora's starting to just think he's just paranoid. Now Sora's feeling a little testy too.]

Oh yeah? You know what? I'm calling your bluff! If it's not that bad, how come you're still hiding it, huh?

What part of this being none of your fucking business don't you get?! I'm not fucking bluffing; I just don't want to show you whether I'm bleeding!

[A pause.]

[That's not... that's not what he expected. It kind of also diffuses Sora's anger.]


... Whether you're... bleeding?

[He's still off kilter from that little revelation. He thought it'd be something a lot more serious with how he's acting.]

What're you, scared of blood or something?

Everybody bleeds, Karkat. It's not like it matters whether I see or not.

I'm not scared of blood, asshole! I spent the better part of a month on a planet covered in the stuff! But it is too a big deal since I just don't like showing other people, alright? Would you quit your fucking prying?

[First: Blood planet? Gross.]

[Second:]
Okay, okay, geeze. If I knew you were gonna get all crazy about it I would've just...

If I turn my back and heal it, would you settle down already?

Will it leave any scabs or marks or anything?

[Gotta cover all the bases, yo.]

Not really. It never left any on me, anyway.

Good. Then do that. Turn your back, heal me, whatever, and then we can get this whole ordeal over with.

[Sora just exhales loudly and does so. He summons his keyblade and casts curative magic on Karkat. Sparks of magic and petals of light rain down around him and mend whatever injuries he may have sustained. And then the magic fades.]

[Karkat peers curious over at the keyblade, not familiar with weapons of that sort, but he doesn't complain. Making sure Sora's back is still turned, he steals a glanced at his hand after--and it's fine now, if it was even scratched in the first place.]

[Grudingly]
... Thanks, I guess.

Don't mention it.

[He turns back to Karkat when it seems like he's not about to start cursing again. And then scratches his cheek as he peers over at the hand.]

What're you gonna do now?

I'm leaving. This whole thing was pointless and stupid.

[And just like that, he turns to climb on up over the fence and hop down on the other side. Not that Sora can't call out to him or the like.]

Hey wait! [Sora strides after him.] That's it? You're leaving already?

[Turning around to glare.]

What do you want from me? I fed the damn Chocobo, nearly had my fingers bit off, and embarrassed myself massively. Do you want me to do a stupid dance or some shit too or can we finally end the idiot fest?

I dunno... Just seems like a waste to come all the way out here without doing it right.

[He scratches his head. He reaches inside his pack, pulling out another batch of greens.]

Come on. How about we give it one more shot. With a good Chocobo. I'll even do it too this time.

Sora? No. You feed the damn things all you want but I am not going to get bit again. I've got no reason to put up with this shit when I don't even like these fucking flapbeasts. If they were crabs, maybe, but not these feathery pains in the ass.

You won't get bit, really!

I know. You wait here. I'll bring over a good one!

[And suddenly he's running off into the field.]

[If only he hadn't gone through that whole ordeal earlier. It was hardly the worst that could have happened, but at this point Karkat is just plain pissed off with the Chocobos, and not too eager to give them a second chance. He's an angry guy like that. And so, while Sora runs off? The troll's just going to turn around and head back the way he came, if he doesn't get stopped again.]
