"I don't understand it though!" Karkat complained as he desperately tried to figure out John fucking Egbert. Kanaya was offering her help, as was Rose, but currently their help was just a string of vague comments. "Why does he insist on speaking to me of all trolls! Hell, he has Vriska here!" Kanaya hums and runs a hand through Karkat's hair, his head was rested upon her lap as he laid down on the couch.

"You don't have to understand it, Karkat." Rose replied as she looked up from her spot on the comfy alchemized recliner across from them. She was reading a book on quadrants that Kanaya had lent to her. "Just accept the fact that John has a great desire to be your friend. I accepted it and now he's one of my closest friends, best friend I should say. Simple really."

"But I don't want him to be my close friend! I already have enough of those! Sadly they're all insane or dead or both but those are the only numb skulled bastard's that I will consider my close friends!" The frustrated cancer troll groaned and pinched the bridge of his nose, the glowing hand running through his hair was actually soothing his current little tantrum. It didn't soothe him enough though, because he went back at it. "Why does he even want me to be friends with him anyway? I'm pretty fucking terrible. It's like I'm a regular at the universe's bad luck ice cream parlour and they keep serving me "Fuck You" sundaes with nice big "I hate you" cherry on top. I just get one shit storm after another." The glowing hand running through his hair momentarily paused its action to gently boop Karkat's nose. "What, is true!"

"True or not," Kanaya started as she went back to running a hand through his hair. "I really believe you should start thinking higher of yourself. Perhaps put yourself on the high pedestal John has seemed to put you on."

"John...put me on a high pedestal?" Karkat had to admit...it was nice. It was nice hearing that John had put Karkat on such a high pedestal. Karkat never thought of someone thinking so highly of him. It was...it was different. It was nice.

"Well not that I know of. But if you believe all of these negative things that have happened are your fault or you get all the supposed 'bad luck' of the entire crew than he must've put you on some sort of pedestal to look past all those negative things." Karkat sighed in frustration. He still finds it hard to believe that John of all people on this meteor is practically pissing himself to spend time with Karkat.

"Listen Karkat." Karkat craned his neck to face the Seer who had put her book down and leaned forward. "John has always harboured some liking towards you. He once commented how you were his favourite out of all the trolls, though that may be because of your funny rants that you're oh so famous for. I suggest that since Terezi and Vriska have gotten so close since the beginning of our three year long journey and how I most likely bore you to death and how Kanaya may not always be there for you, it's best that you swallow that tremendous pride of yours and become best goddamn pals with John Egbert." Karkat growled and looked back at Kanaya who merely shrugged and nodded.

"She's correct you know. It might be fun to have someone to pal around with. You can't be constantly clinging to my leg or Terezi's leg the entire sweep we're here. You know Terezi still needs some space after your...uh...little falling out. And I will need my space eventually too. So suck it up and befriend him." Another frustrated growl was heard from Karkat and a moment later he rolled off the lap of the rainbow drinker.

"Fucking fine. I'll go befriend the shithead that rejected me. But if this ends up in a bad time I will blame both of you witches for this shit, go it?"

"Actually Karkat, I'm a Seer and Kanaya's a Sylph. Jade is the one in our group that is a witch. Oh, and the lovely Miss Feferi as well." The cancer troll rolled his eyes and stomped out the room, he wasn't about to further an already dead conversation.

He stomped his way down the halls, his mind trying to formulate some sort of scenario where he and John could have any sort of chance where they become friends and Karkat doesn't unload all of his pent up feelings of his rejection. Of course none of the situations created in the very depths of the troll's mind showed that he wouldn't scare the poor human away with horrible, fucked up feelings that were left to marinate in hatred. Oh well, John would just have to deal with Karkat's unavoidable feelings dump.
