[Since the castle changed everyone back from being on the pirate ship, Kanaya parrot has been sleeping in her garden on the castle grounds (it's all looking great, thanks for asking). Why? Because it's warm, and on the warm summer nights in Paradisa she doesn't have a thing to fear! It's a far cry from the wilderness of Alternia.

That was all fine, at least until Kanaya suddenly changed from being a light, small parrot to being a larger and rather heavier troll perched in a bush. The journal conveniently sheltered beneath the branches picks up crunching and a startled, displeased cry.]

Oh, really?! Honestly, if this shrub has come to any harm...!

[Annoyed, and rather unusually flustered, when it comes to one of her plants being harmed... and then rustling noises as she picks up the journal, dusting some stray specks of dirt off the pages, and sighs.]

But of course. There really is no possibility of escaping these while we're here, is there?

I seem to have missed various proceedings again. My apologies to my fellows and any others who might have wished to speak to me.

[Karkat]

Are you all right? I heard all of those explosions.

[Vriska]

Who went home?

All I'm getting from that are hints that I should go all out with the transgressions that I continue to get shit for if it means that most of us will get hurt. And that you will be okay with it, even if others aren't.

[You digress, alright. It takes every ounce of Vriska's strength not to say that much.]

That and you really want an excuse to fire up the chainsaw again.

[unironically.livejournal.com]

Vriska, it is not the same. Gamzee is a definite threat, and I would not necessarily face him without reinforcements. I suppose alternately we could force him onto sorpor again, and restore him to his old self - if the castle will provide us with the means.

Attacking Gamzee is not like attacking Tavros.

[thiefoflight.livejournal.com]

It's not like slime is hard to come by! Don't forget, we sure got fucked up when "good" Gamzee was still around!

Anyway, you sure are being careful about all these threats looming over your heads, Kanaya! Which reminds me, what about Eridan, huh? Why wasn't anyone this insane over him when he was around?

[Ugh. You just had to bring that up. There is a glare and a faint growl at the journal when she hears this, but Vriska is keeping her cool.]

And what about me, then? Clearly, I am a loose cannon that is just as volatile! Ain't that right?

[unironically.livejournal.com]

Why don't you explain why you moved against Tavros in your own words?

[thiefoflight.livejournal.com]

Why does it even matter? It's not like I'm after his blood here!

[unironically.livejournal.com]

It seems to matter to you to be judged a loose canon and a danger to the group. Why are you so hostile at a chance to express yourself otherwise?

[thiefoflight.livejournal.com]

Again, I'm finding it real hard to understand why it's going to matter whether or not I tell you my deepest, darkest secrets. What is that supposed to change? Really.

[unironically.livejournal.com]

Your reasons for attacking Tavros are now deep, dark secrets? Really?

[thiefoflight.livejournal.com]

[Ugh!]

Stop taking everything so literally! Either that, or step away from the oncoming condescension. Like that's really going to make me share.

[unironically.livejournal.com]

Why did you do it, Vriska?

[thiefoflight.livejournal.com]

You know damn well why I'd give that wiggler a good smacking around!

[But then again, the impaling... Sure is avoiding spilling the beans here!]

[unironically.livejournal.com]

I have reason to believe that it may have gone farther than mere fisticuffs.

[thiefoflight.livejournal.com]

Well, yeah! It's not like he didn't know what was in store for him, after all!

[unironically.livejournal.com]

His death, then?

[thiefoflight.livejournal.com]

It was his own damn fault!

[unironically.livejournal.com]

[So it is true.]

Vriska, why?

[thiefoflight.livejournal.com]

Why not? He was the dumbass who challenged me!

[unironically.livejournal.com]

So you killed him? Was that really necessary?

/goes to bed, sob ;;

[thiefoflight.livejournal.com]

[There's a low growl, and Vriska's seething.]

What's done is done, okay? It's like I said, the wiggler's not in any immediate danger from the ravenous spiderbitch here, so you might as well just lay off already!

me too, no tears

[unironically.livejournal.com]

The question of why is what still drifts over the parley platform like a falling autumn leaf. Vriska, you insist that you are not a loose cannon, but with a history of actions such as this, what are we meant to think? You refuse to explain yourself even now!

/casually sneaks one more tag in

[thiefoflight.livejournal.com]

[Kanaya, you and your lyrical loquacity! Gosh.]

And you continue to fall into this stupid pattern of pestering me like you're so good at analyzing my every move. Meanwhile, all I want to do is forget about this stupid shit! But no, you just keep on pushing!

The motivation doesn't fucking matter! Get over it.

baby baby baby

[unironically.livejournal.com]

The motivation does matter. And your reaction here gives the lie to claiming that you wish to be respected and not regarded as a dangerous live wire by our group. To be trusted, you must at least try to explain and justify yourself!
