MOVIE NIGHT

[carcinogenetics]

[ WHO ]: Karkat, YOU, WHOEVER YOU INVITED.
[ WHERE ]: Room 315, or Karkat and poor, suffering Shirou's flat.
[ WHEN ]: 6:30 on the Wednesday after Karkat's last post here!
[ OPEN/CLOSED? ]: TOTALLY OPEN.
[ RATING ]: PG-13 for language and movie content idk.
[ WARNINGS ]: ROMCOMS. That might turn into HORROR MOVIES. Who knows.
[ NOTES ]: This post is totally open! I'm going to turn off comment notifications for this entry, so feel free to have your own threads independent from Karkat. You can find a description of the apartment in the apartment listings page.

He's going to be playing 100 Days With Mr Arrogant first, then My Girlfriend Is An Agent. Others can come up later in the thread. The movies will be interspersed by audio and clips from Ju-on: The Grudge every now and then.

Bring your own food since Karkat will get pissy if you eat his, but feel free to come and go through the night. The whole point is Karkat's tsundere for leadership way of trying to boost morale after the doll event, so you're all invited!

... Unless you're Vice or Visi, but you can show up too :>

But we're the hosts.

["We." Shirou has claimed this apartment as partially his by now; sorry, Karkat.]

Even if I disagree with your choice of movies...we're still the hosts. We should be providing food.

[carcinogenetics]

I'm the host. Me. This wasn't your idea.

[He puffs up like an aggressive kitten - but seems more possessive of the idea itself, rather than the idea that he shares an apartment with this guy now.]

You're the volunteer caterer.

[youlostme]

I live here too. Maybe I'm not the only man of the house like I was at home...

[Actually, he's not sure about that. Is Karkat even really a "man" if his species's approach to romance and sexuality is so strange? Shirou puts that idea aside for now with a faint frown.]

But I still can't wash my hands of a gathering and say, "I'm not the host at all."

[carcinogenetics]

[Karkat throws his hands up in the air.] Fine, fine! But don't expect me to help you out with food and shit like that when you have people over.

[youlostme]

That's okay. I don't even know if you can cook.

[So it's not like he's going to trust Karkat in the kitchen. In fact, he gives him a bit of a suspicious glance.]

[carcinogenetics]

What the - of course I can fucking cook!

[His scowl is pretty indignant this time, rather than just contrary.] My lusus had crab claws, how the shit was he meant to use the food preparation units?

[youlostme]

That's right...

[And Shirou's expression relaxes a little. He even might smile a little.]

My dad didn't have crab claws, but I had to cook for him too a lot. We learned in the same way, huh?

[carcinogenetics]

What was his excuse? [But maybe he doesn't say it as gruffly as he's said the other things.]

[youlostme]

[An uncharacteristically pensive look passes over Shirou's face.]

I think...he was probably sick.

[And then he forcefully tries to cheer up.]

But sometimes he was just kind of a lazy guy.

[carcinogenetics]

[Karkat squints at that forcible cheer.]

... Right.
