WE ARE MAKING THIS HAPPEN [CLOSED TO KANAYA]

[shoutypersonified]

Karkat sat bolt upright from where he had face-planted on his desk, a piece of loose-leaf paper stuck to his forehead. Although he constantly danced on the edge of a seriously unhealthy lack of sleep, he was very good at not accidentally falling asleep when he didn't want to. In fact, he was a natural at not sleeping. Passing out randomly did not happen to him. But here he was, waking up from one of the weirdest dreams he had ever had. First of all, it featured a giant group of people, of whom he knew maybe two (notably, one of those two was someone he had only ever met in a very similar dream). Secondly, it contained the information that they were all apparently some sort of gods.

The main thing Karkat got from all of that was: there would be more monsters to fight, and no they did not have a choice. So it looked like Karkat was going to be joining this monster fighting team after all. In that case, they had to get started as soon as possible, because who knew when that weird queen person or whoever was in charge would send them more "trials"? Karkat intended to not get mercilessly shredded any time in the near future.

He turned to his computer and erased the "de:$%YTL""""""""""""""""""""" from where it had appeared on the word document he had open as his elbow had landed on the keyboard. Assuming Kanaya had actually had the exact same dream as Karkat (she had been there after all), she would most likely be awake too, right? Unless afterward the people who had already been sleeping just went back to the regularly scheduled dream broadcast. He switched to the pesterchum app and opened a new message to Kanaya.

CG: KANAYA IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY AWAKE, WAKE THE FUCK UP.
CG: I JUST HAD ANOTHER ONE OF THOSE FUCKING GOLDEN CITY DREAMS.
CG: EXCEPT YOU WERE THERE SO I AM ASSUMING THAT YOU HAD IT TOO.
CG: AND THAT QUEEN PERSON OR WHOEVER THE FUCK IT WAS TOLD US WE WERE GODS OR SOME SHIT.
CG: BUT ONE THING WAS AS CLEAR AS A FUCKING GLASS-LESS WINDOW.
CG: THERE WILL BE MORE MONSTER FIGHTS AND WE ARE GOING TO HAVE TO SURVIVE THEM.
CG: OR AT LEAST THERE WILL BE SOME OTHER POTENTIALLY LIFE-THREATENING "TRIALS".
CG: SO IF WE ARE GOING TO CREATE A FIGHTING FORCE OUT OF THESE PEOPLE NOW WOULD BE A FUCKING SUPERB TIME TO BEGIN.
