[Action; inside 1338 Benny]

[Some people deal with teenage drama and fights with their best friends by drowning their sorrows in ice cream and shitty movies. Gamzee, on the other hand, drowns his sorrows in pies. Unfortunately, the human pies don't work half as well as his sopor ones do when it comes to making him feel better, plus his stomach starts hurting after he downs a whole tin for some reason. This hasn't stopped him from baking dozens and dozens of them, though.

Anyone who comes into the kitchen of 1338 Benny will find Gamzee covered head to toe in flour, as well as what looks to be a minor explosion of various ingredients all over the countertops, including several that have no business being anywhere near a pie. The table, meanwhile, is stacked with piping hot pies. If this were one of Karkat's paleromcoms, this would be the incredibly pathetic scene where Gamzee starts wailing the lyrics to "All By Myself (Don't Wanna Be Culled Anymore)" at the top of his lungs.]


[Action; outside 1338 Benny]

[Having been scolded by both drone parents because 'boys shouldn't be doing girly activities like baking', Gamzee has relocated his table of pies outdoors and is currently munching on a slice. Taped across the table is a large sign that reads:



Gamzee looks kind of lonely, come share a slice with him? There's three different types of pies to choose from:

1) Regular pies: through the power of miracles, Gamzee has actually managed to bake pies that most people would be familiar with, like apple and banana cream and cherry.

2) Stoner pies: the ingredients in these are kind of weird! You might get a strange but nonetheless delicious one, like peanut butter chocolate potato chips pie, or a pie filled with ice cream and soda. On the other hand, you might also get one with hamburger meat and strawberry syrup.

3) Pot pies: they look like normal pies, but Gamzee's added a special ingredient that the greasers at the high school said would make miracles happen. He's not sure how a bag full of what looks like grass is supposed to accomplish this, but humans can be pretty weird sometimes! Don't worry, there isn't enough pot in these pies to get anyone sick, just high.]

[He's quiet for a long time, not sure what to say in response, but he paps him on the shoulder a little.]

You're right, I've been keeping some things to myself that are big things, and I don't have any intention of changing that, and you're right that you should trust me that you don't need to know.

For one thing, it's fucking awful to talk to some of us knowing exactly what's going to happen to them and that nothing anyone can say will prevent it, and there's no reason why anyone who isn't there by virtue of timeline needs to join those of us who are.

For another, it's not really relevant to the current situation because I have no intention of letting us leave and pick up where that timeline left off. Not that I can promise anything when it's so evidently beyond my control, but that is where we stand.

[He doesn't notice it, but he instinctively leans into shoulder papping, the tension visibly seeping out of him.]

Yeah, okay. Guess it doesn't really matter as long as we're all alive in this miracle town. And there ain't no point in worrying about shit happening in the future if we can't be changing it.

[glances at Karkat] ...you're all right, though? Back home too, I mean.

As far as I remember, I'm still alive.

[smiles in relief] That's good. And hey, maybe shit ain't as bad as it seems. A miracle could be happening, just like with Sollux.

[He's getting the vague sense that he probably died in Karkat's timeline, but he's alive now and Karkat told him not to worry about it, so he puts it out of his mind.]

whoops only half a tag

If you say so, but we're not going back to find out.

[He's quiet for a moment and then adds:]

I'm not angry at you.

[Ugh, way to make him feel bad! Glaring at him.]

Don't act like it's such a big surprising thing. Although considering how I usually feel about you, maybe it is.

[HE JUST CAN'T WIN, CAN HE...]

Soooooooorry. I'm just all real motherfuckin' glad you ain't fronting any nasty shit my way no more. [big eyes] Does that mean you're coming back?

I don't think I'll be gone for a long time. I just don't know how much longer.

I'm not angry with you but I'm pretty bent out of shape about this whole situation and I'd just rather be alone for a little while. Especially because I keep saying shit I really wasn't planning on saying.

[a-awww, a little disappointed, but at least Karkat's not mad at him anymore!]

Sure, best friend. Whatever you need, you just tell me and I'll be all over that shit like a laughsassin over unfunny business.

Okay. Whatever that even means.

I should go. But if you need me for something, you can call.
