004 ♐ text : Fail to screw in lightbulbs.

[musclebeast]

D --> Are there STRONGER light bulbs somewhere in this e%ecrable place
D --> These terrible orbs of shattering pain are e%temely insufficient
D --> Or perhaps just, assistance with getting these into their sockets might be enough

No, I don't think I will.

Jutht pretend I'm not here.

[Action]

[musclebeast]

Impossible. I won;t even try, it'd be foolish. Get out.

[Action]

[biwinning]

No. I'm waiting to thee if you can piece two and two together.

[Action]

[musclebeast]

Please don't bring your number based obsession in here.

[Action]

[biwinning]

They're part of the package deal. Tho no, I can't.

[Action]

[musclebeast]

I never ordered this package deal.

[Action]

[biwinning]

Thurprithe delivery.

B.T.W. your handsth are pretty fucked up.

[Action]

[musclebeast]

...You.

[His eyes slim. And yeah, his hands are pretty 'effed up'. They're dripping blue and have a good deal of glass shards embedded here and there. Though his sudden surge of anger does well to help him ignore that piercing pain.]

[Action]

[biwinning]

You're finally putting it together now, huh.

[and boy is he grinning.]

[Action]

[musclebeast]

Wh- ['Why,' but he knows why, and he feels a little dumb for thinking to ask. Equius moves a hand up to punch the bridge of his nose, digging his shades in a little.]

Nevermind, just get out. You've done enough, you-

Did you really take the effort to unscrew all of those light bulbs? [Because he can barely imagine Sollux wanting to put out the effort to unscrew one, let alone five.]

[Action]

[biwinning]

[The grin suddenly sobers a bit, and despite the nonchalant pose of crossed arms and leaning against the doorframe, he's definitely serious when he says this:]

Yeth.

[Action]

[musclebeast]

I find that surprising. [His eyes slim, flicking blood off his hands.]

Normally you don't have so much drive. I find it to be extremely frustrating that you now suddenly feel so impelled and for something stupid.

[Action]

[biwinning]

I have drive when there'th thomething I'm trying to accomplish.

[He narrows his eyes in return.]

Which I have. It wathn't pointleth nor thtupid, from my perthpective.

[Action]

[musclebeast]

It was entirely pointless, my hands are in shreds because of you!

[Action]

[biwinning]

That wath partially the point.

[Action]

[musclebeast]

Really? You do realize I can't exactly work like this, not until they heal Was that the rest of your petty 'point' you despicable cur?

[Action]

[biwinning]

...

Ehehehe.

[Hehe, Equius is calling him names again.]

Yeth.

[Action]

[musclebeast]

Hey! Why are you laughing? GET- ugh, GET OUT. [Wow don't fucking laugh at him!?]

[POINTING! So much pointing! His face is going blue as he starts to really get angry.]

I do not need your childish meddling and fatuous snickering, trot off!

[Action]

[biwinning]

Trot off. I haven't heard that one before.

[Sorry Equ, you're just getting more hilarious. Cue more snickering!]

[Action]

[musclebeast]

Tr- you- ugh. Well you will hear no more of it because I am done here, and you are done here. Everyone is currently done as far as this extremely pointless situation is concerned. Now leave before I take revenge for this foalish hoofbeast play. [His teeth are in a tight grind, making his jaw muscles bulge, lips pursing tight infront of the clenched fangs.]

[Action]

[biwinning]

[And he's still grinning...

Up until the point where he hears those teeth grinding. Then he begins to look actually a little angry! Uh oh.]

Maybe I want you to. It'd give me an excuse to knock more of your teeth out.

[Action]

[musclebeast]

Like you have the STRENGTH to do something like that! Not that I'd be against- something- so aggressive... [Sweats, hands clench.] Your silly pranks give me reason enough to better your own dental debacle! Perhaps I'd actually feel threatened by your words once you pronounce every letter correctly.

[Action]

[biwinning]

At leatht I have all of my teeth. I'm honethtly thurprithed you can even thay anything right with the sheer number of malfunctionsth going on with your mouth.

[Sollux steps back a bit, but not in an attempt to get away from Equius. Rather, it's him getting better footing, sorting out his balance to one of a more fighting stance.]

Come on, ponyboy. Yeth or no. Fight me.

[Action]

[musclebeast]

All your teeth and more, at least mine do not grow back in copious, unnecessary amounts like some kind of land jawbeast, if you could even be that magnificently menacing.

[Fight... him, ugh this is the second time this has happened, but he certainly feels like he would enjoy beating the snot out of this little brat.]

[His hands clench, wincing a little from the cuts and small shards still embedded in his skin. He wants to but he shouldn't, how would he calm down? And this... disgusting lout isn't worth it, even if he certainly did manage to really tick him off.]

No, just, just stop it, I, I will not be played for a fool!

[Action]

[biwinning]

Backing out again, huh?

[Although his words keep full of spite, his postures slumps just slightly, and his hands drop from their position.]

Tho it'th true. You really are jutht a huge coward.
