Karkat retreated to his grotto. He had gathered a lot of human stuff since he was only five sweeps old. He gathered enough to fill the entire cavern. "IF ONLY I COULD MAKE THAT OLD F**K UNDERSTAND! I DONT SEE HOW A WORLD THAT MAKES SUCH WONDERFUL THINGS COULD BE SO BAD...."
"LOOK AT THIS S**T.
ISNT IT NEAT?
WOULDNT YOU THINK MY COLLECTIONS COMPLETE?" He swam over to a large rock and sat on the ledge.
"WOULDNT THINK IM THE CRAB?
THE CRAB WHO HAS EVERYTHING?" Karkat laid down and started inspecting his Dinglehopper.
"IVE GOT GADGETS AND GIZMOS APLENTY
I'VE GOT WHO-ZIT AND WHAT-ZITS GALORE.
YOU WANT THING-A-MA-BOBS?
I'VE GOT TWENTY." he smiled and opened a box to show Nepeta some of his treasures.
"BUT WHO CARES?
NO BIG DEAL?
I WANT MORE... -"
Kankri burst in, ranting like usual. "Karkat, 6a6y, listen t9 me. Y9ur lusus is very unhappy. D9 y9u kn9w h9w angry he is? 9h my signless he w9n't st9p screeching at me. Next thing y9u kn9w, I'll 6e 9n a platter c9vered in 6utter. N9w, y9u g9tta listen t9 me.-" He noticed all the human treasures around the cave. "What is this?"
Karkat sat up, "I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF A F**KING SOLILOQUY. DO YOU MIND?"
Kankri rolled his eyes and crossed his tiny crab arms. "I am quite aware 9f it. Y9u need to get y9ur head 9ut 9f the f9am. D9wn here is y9ur h9me! Life under the sea is 6etter than anything they g9t up there..."
Calypso music started pouring out of no where. Karkat and Nepeta looked around; one clearly more excited than the other. "WHAT THE EVER LOVING F**K IS THAT?"
":33-Oh boy! A song!" She clapped excitedly and sat on the end of the rock opposite Karkat.
Kankri started singing, but Karkat leaned over to Nepeta before he could really even start. "Let's go before he gets really into it."
Nepeta pointed upward and gasped. ":33-Look! It's a butt!"
Karkat laughed and ruffled her hair. "No, it's a boat."
They swam up to it together, abandoning Janitor and his band of crabs and other sea animals.
But mostly crabs.
