More Than Your Average Dare {Homestuck}

Truth or Dare?

((Yes, I did change Duke's last name. His name is no longer 'Duke Rich'. He is now 'Duke Danes.' the reason for this is because his name was almost identical to someone I know and I thought I should change it. Also, I have errors to fix, as I have been spelling Danni in a medley of 'i's and 'y's. Also, I changed Julie's class. She's now the Seer of Space.))

"Do you think we'll see the trolls on Monday?" Julie asked. "I sure hope so! Equius is sooo hot. I mean, that's probably a little weird since he's probably older than I am, and he's also sort of with Nepeta. But you know it's definitely worth a shot. But if you think about it, I may not actuall-"

"Julie! Shut up!" Duke yelled, his mouth half full of pizza.

Julie sure liked to talk, hence her chumhandle, verbalDiarrhea. It got rather annoying but we'd managed to deal with it.

"Okay, how about a nice game of Truth or Dare!" I suggested. I already knew what I was going to dare Duke. They probably all were thinking the same thing. "I'm starting!"

Julie and Danni agreed with big, devilish grins, and Duke hesitantly agreed. I immediatly stood on the bed, pointing down at him, who was sitting on the floor. "Truth. Or. Dare," I asked with a piercing glare, saying each word like it's own sentace. We all knew what this meant; pick Dare or prepare to die.

"Dare," he answered with a sigh.

"I dare you to ask out Mr.Dave Strider tomorrow. You will pester him, and then ask him on a date."

"Hell no."

"Hell yes."

"Hell no."

"Hell yes."

"Hell-"

"Just do if for Jesus sakes!" Danni yelled, getting annoyed.

Duke let out a reluctant sigh. "Fine." We all cheered and wooped and then went back to eatting pizza. "But now it's my turn."

Duke stood and mimicked my intimidating truth or dare 'pick dare or die' position. It was something we all did.

"Ceana. Truth. Or. Dare."

"Dare."

"I dare you to download a copy of the sburb beta."

We all stopped and looked at him. Our faces all contorted to the 'dafuq' Jane Crocker face.

"Do you have a fucking death wish?!" Danny finally yelled. "If the trolls and kids are real than sburb is bound to be real!"

Duke laughed. "Yeah, sure and pigs shitting rainbows are suddenly going to fly out of my ass. The online sburb download is just a virus. Merna's a computer genius so she'll get rid of it no problem."

I gave him a wary look but then slowly nodded. "Yeah, he's right. No harm in that." I pulled the computer into my lap and opened up a web page, quickly searching up the beta. And there it was, a download link.

I clicked it.

Ping.

Pesterchum alerted me of a new message.

carcinoGenetisist [CG] has begun trolling kickingCageass [KC].

CG: STOP.

CG: STOP RIGHT THE FUCK NOW.

KC: Karkat?

"Guys holy shit it's Karkat!" I couldn't fight the giddiness in my voice. I loved Karkat. Always have. Always will.

CG: YEAH HOW THE FUCK DID YOU KNOW THAT?

CG: JUST. FUCK NEVERMIND.

CG: CLOSE DOWN THAT PAGE YOU'RE ON.

KC: What? But whskofsklclwlclel

Julie was suddenly in my lap, her foot in my keyboard. Ugh what was up with her.

"Julie! What the actual fuck?!"

"I protecting you!"

"From what?!"

"Listening to this guy!"

Julie had always called herself a seer. We all thought it was a homestuck joke but then she told us it was totally legit. I still don't really believe her, but the others do.

CG: WHAT THE FUCK JUST HAPPENED?

CG: ARE YOU OKAY?

CG: IS SOMEONE TRYING TO KILL YOU?

CG: SEE THIS IS WHY I TOLD YOU TO CLOSE THAT PAGE!

KC: What? No I'm f;ne.

KC: Sh;t Duke changed my qu;rk.

KC: Okay they're off now.

KC: It was just Julie kicking my laptop.

CG: WHY?

KC: To protect me from you?

CG: FUCKING SEERS.

My jaw dropped. This had to be a joke.

"You're actually a seer?!" I blurted, wiping my head to stare at her. "How?!"

Julie shrugged. "I'm the Seer of Space. Why do you think I love astrology so much. I can see into space. I know parts of our future. And one part is, you have to download that file."

KC: As great as you are Karkat, I think I'm going to have to go with Julie here.

CG: YOUR CORPSE PARTY.

KC: I think you mean funeral.

CG: FUCK.

I closed the log and opened the Internet page again, finally shoving Julie out of my lap. I hit download.

.1% of sburb_beta_setup downloaded. 47 hours and 58 minutes remaining.

I gawked at the numbers. Julie just shrugged.

"You'll understand."

((A cliffhanger motherbrothers! I actually wrote the majority of this at school which is why there isn't much swearing at the beginning. Shits unfolding. I've been waiting for this scene for forever! next chapter is going to be super light hearted (hint: Davie and Dukie's date ^u^) and funny. Don't worry, starting it right now.))
