Super Mighty Rumpus Guild Take 2 | Open
Date: April 13th, 2016
From: Kanaya Maryam
To: Feferi Peixes, Terezi Pyrope, Nepeta Leijon, Eridan Ampora, Jade Harley, Sollux Captor, Tavros Nitram, Aradia Megido
Hello Everyone
Last Night Those Of Us Who Belong To The Golden Kingdom Were Summoned By The Queen To Hear Some Heavily Mysterious And Rather Alarming News
Previous To This Occurrence Feferi Terezi And I Discussed A Possible Meeting To Better Ourselves By Raising Our Skill Levels With The Hope That Doing So Will Increase The Chances Of A Favorable Outcome When Confronting These Otherworldly Creatures
Whatever Is Transpiring It Is Imperative That We Be Prepared And Personally I Would Be More Disposed To Practice In The Presence Of Prospective Partners
In Addition To Showing Signs Of Potential Powers My Dear Friend Karkat Is Currently Training In The Army And Has Agreed To Instruct Those Of Us Willing To Learn In Self Defense Techniques
I Request That You Do Not Bring Weapons As They Will Be Too Conspicuous In A Public Space But That You Do Bring Comfortable Clothing And If You Have Met Anyone Else That You Believe To Be Involved I Highly Encourage You Usher Them Along As More Perspectives Will Only Serve To Supplement Our Understanding Of The Situation
Karkat And I Would Like To Meet Tomorrow At 4 In Central Park Between The Fountain And The Elderly Flash Dancing Lesson
Please Contact Me Presently If You Will Be Late Or Cannot Attend

Bag packed with her sketchbook, raw meat, and grapes, Kanaya found herself ready for the journey to the park. The walk from her new place was a bit longer than before, so even though she lingered while choosing a workout outfit -- a simple white shirt and roomy ankle-length red skirt -- she overshot the timing and arrived nearly twenty minutes early.
She tucked herself beneath a tree near the upbeat dance class, pulling out her sketchbook. The wispy hair, flabby arms, and neon leotards would serve as good drawing subjects and an easy-to-follow beacon for her fellow superpowered peers to home in on.

Until it came to Dave's turn. One minute he was beside Dirk, next he was behind him. Then even after that, Dirk's reaction was...awesomely fast. Like damn!! Whoa nelly and hoochebaba too! He almost wanted to hoop in excitement for his bro kicking some ass, but he stopped himself, nudging Jane with a raised eyebrow.
"Did you see all that? That was...some not regular stuff. I mean Dirk must be working out, but what just happened...this is real, Janey. There are some real deals going on here."
no subject
"Jake... We're the 'real deal' too. We're sitting in a tree that fashioned a bench for us." she smirked.
Karkat's screech reached them with ease atop the tree, and Jane winced a bit, clearing her throat. "... Glowing aside, I think he could give the Canary a run for her money." But her eyes quickly returned to Dirk and Dave, sensing the tension that crackled between the two. When Dave spoke up, she nodded, giving a little shake of her head in shock. Dave Strider could stop time? Sweet goodness, you think you know a guy.
no subject
He looks to her, not thinking on his own words and emotions. He was hoping for the best. Hoping for a better future for the city. Hoping to meet new people, make new friends. His usual green eyes were now fully yellow, grin wide and bright.
Jane Pay Attention You're 15 Feet In The Air
"... I am very glad that I decided to tell you what has been going on with me." she said softly, admittedly leaning towards him a bit more than was entirely necessary. "Just yesterday I... I didn't know what do do about all of this, and now..." Fuck it. She took his hand, her thumb giving a gentle rub along his palm as her heart pounded. "... Now I get to share in this with one of my best friends."
She was too wrapped up in Jake's eyes to notice that their altitude had dropped by a few inches, her control over the tree beginning to slip.
OPERATION: DON'T GLOW IN THE TREE (FAILING FAILING)
His eyes warmed as she spoke, feeling his breath catch as she took his hand and her thumb brushed against him. "...oh Janey. I'm so glad we shared...I'm so glad we told each other. To feel all this out in the open...to not worry anymore about what it could mean...to know you'll be there...and..."
And what they could be. What the two of them could be together. He began to lean in, letting the hope swell within him...not even noticing the fact that he was starting to glow quite brightly.
Kiss, Kiss, Fall... Out of A Tree
This was not her first kiss, she supposed. There had been a boy once, in elementary school, who had called her behind the jungle gym and planted a messy slop of a smooch upon her lips. He had then stumbled away with a messy slop of a busted lip to match his advances, courtesy of the young Miss Crocker herself. Nonetheless, this felt like her first kiss, and she was beyond overjoyed that she would be sharing it with Jake.
Jake and Jane were mere centimeters from contact when her hold upon the tree's life force was lost completely. With a mighty crack, the limbs snapped back to the position they had been in moments before, leaving the two hopeful friends with nothing beneath them save for the earth 15 feet below.
