[video via webcam] backdated to before the earthquake, sob

So...s-someone mentioned something about ghost jackets a while ago, right? What about ghost, uh...outfits?

[Danny cringes a little as he says it, and steps back from the camera to zoom out from his face and instead give a view of his clothing.]

It's--I don't know what this is--other than really tight--but every time I take it off, I just wake up with it already on under my PJs the next morning! This has been happening to me every day this week so far--look at this. [He swings the camera over to a view of his closet, where there is a pile of identical suits spilling out onto his bedroom floor.]

Has anyone else had this problem? Okay--I'm pretty sure someone else must've had this, at least with the ghost jackets, but I. [sigh] I just don't know what I'm supposed to do with this.

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

You are welcome. But fortunately for everybody, I don't think the clinginess demonstrated by your outfit was mandatory! We were all over the black shit with weird-ass symbols, though. All over it.

[ ... ]

Is your symbol a D. Is that what it's supposed to be.

I...I think so? I don't know why, though--or why part of it's missing on the bottom.

Why, what symbols did you have?

No idea, dude. But I remember a guy with an orangey browny... circle thing? Like a little face with horns, I guess. And a girl with a pink H. But that ain't important! What is important is that you got The D.

The D, Danny.

THE D.

Oh my god. Oh my god, I got the D! [He's pulling at it again, trying to get it off TO NO AVAIL.]

I don't even want the D! Why do I have it?

You don't just have the D! You have all the D. Your stockpile of the D is constantly mounting. Reproducing, if you will!

Your superpower is summoning-slash-producing the D, Danny. You may not want the D, but the D definitely wants you.

[ SHRIEKY CACKLY LAUGHTER IS GO ]

[every time he thinks his life has reached a new low, it gets even lower. He is hiding his face in his hands.]

I can't even get rid of it...

I don't even--why is it a D anyway?! That--that doesn't even make any sense!

Getting rid of the D would be super unwise, duh. And of course it makes sense! D could have been the first letter of your name. Sometimes it stays the same! Like Karson was Karkat, and Travis was Tavros, and Soren was Sollux and stuff. Maybe some of us had the first letter of our names as our symbols or som--

Wait.

Oh my god.

Oh my god no.

If that's right, that means I had the V.

[NOW WHOSE TURN IS IT TO LAUGH

THAT'S RIGHT, THIS GUY'S

Give him some time]

[aaaalright, and he's done now.]

I'm not sure if that's worse than the D or not!

Okay, okay. So--if you had the V, what was your name? Because Octavia definitely doesn't start with a V.

Of course it ain't worse! Or I would be insisting that we trade. And I am absolutely not asking you to give me the D.

[ OH LOOK THE CACKLING MADE A COMEBACK. Maturity all up in here. ]

But, uh. Right. My name was Vriska! But I guess I used Mindfang as like a secret pirate name sometimes? So maybe I had an M instead. Whatever.

Oh my god. Believe me, I wasn't planning on it. I do not want to give anyone the D. I just want to get rid of it. [Pointing to his DUMB STUPID FILTHY LOGO again.]

Maybe I had something like that too, though, the secret name thing. Because the name I remember...definitely doesn't start with a D. Or, uh. Have a D in it at all.

Maybe that's why there's a bit missing? You have no urge to use the D. You didn't hit puber-D yet.

[ ba-dum-tshhhhhhh ]

So what name do you remember? Is it super lame?

[It's bad enough that she just made a pun, he's already snickering as it is. So saying the name takes a few moments for him to steel himself, so he can say it without laughing. He ends up saying it so quietly, it's almost a whisper.]

It's...Inviso-Bill.

...Inviso-Bill.

[ staaaaaaaare ]

Bill is short for William, which can also be shortened to Willy which is yet another term for the D. BAM!

Wow. You really put some thought into that one.

Maybe you were the one who came up with that weird fake name for me in the first place.

Making insanely roundabout dick puns does sound like me--

[ Oh, excuse her while she zones out for a second

~*IT'S ECHO TIME*~

When she's done with the usual weird-ass hollow sensation, she's aware of another feeling. One that makes her pull at her collar to look down the front of her shirt. ]

HOLY SHIT YOU SHOULD SEE WHAT I'VE GOT DOWN HERE.

[ Because this conversation was just not innuendo-laden enough ]

UH

Tavia I-I'm not so sure that's a good idea--!

NO, LOOK, CHECK IT OUT.

[ WHIPPING OFF HER SHIRT

To reveal another shirt. A black one with this on it.

WHAT A SHOCKING TWIST! ]

Called it!

[As soon as her reply starts playing, Danny shouts and throws his arms up over his face to shield his delicate virgin eyes.]

[But then he peeks out through his fingers, though, he notices there are no boobs, only more shirt.]

Wha--Why do you get a T-shirt with your weird logo-symbol thing and I have to wear a spandex suit?!

[ So much eye-rolling at the flinchy face-hiding shit. DANNY PLS. ]

First? Not a weird symbol. It's an M, right? With a little fang on it! Mindfang. And secondly, Iunno. Because your past self was as terrible at keeping his pants held up as present you is? So the best way to stop your pants falling down is to eliminate the pants element entirely by giving you a fetching little all-in-one number?

[wow rude he didn't know you had another shirt on underneath!!!!]

H-hey!! I've totally got that under control now, my pants haven't fallen off for like months! [Danny actually knows the exact number of days it's been since it last happened. His sister started a "DAYS SINCE LAST PANTS DROP" counter for him, and it used to never go above 2 or 3 until now. He's about 56 days clean.]

...why is yours blue, anyway?

You think you've got it under control. You can always relapse, dude! And mine's blue because like. That was my blood colour. I guess?

[ plucking at the shirt ]

Man we were. All about the coordinating-with-blood-colour-shit, huh.
