♎ S33R: R34D TH3 HOROSCOP3S

( phone )

It's Terezi and my auricular sponge clots are still frothing teal from all of those alarms, and I guess everyone is still in a big panic about it but I just wanted to let everyone know that Dave Strider- hard cherry candy red Dave, not delicious orange creamsicle Dave- is gone. Back to... to our universe, I guess, and I mean, I just-...

[Terezi actually sounds pretty miserable about it. ]

I bet he will be back soon. I mean, that's just like a coolkid, to get himself panscrubbed ironically. He will be back in a few days, won't he, I just know it, he's going to swagger on in and be like 'Hey, TZ, hey, everything's totally cool and I was just seeing what it was like to be a drone for a while.' Yeah, that's what's going to happen. Blargh. I think I am going to give him a good hard drubbing the moment he snaps out of it. He's leaving me hanging and-

[Her voice shrinks.] ...Anyway, um. That's all.

Oh, except, by the way, can I ask if there are any people out there who were born between the human calendar dates of... September 24th to October 23rd? [She sounds a little bit hopeful, curious.] Let me know!

( filtered to castmates but easily broken )

I discovered this thing! [She seems to perk up a little bit, although she still sounds a bit tired. There's some rustling on her end of the line.] It's called 'the zodiac'! Humans have this wheel of 12 signs based on the stars in the sky and the way they're laid out and... There's a machine that dispenses something called a 'horoscope'. That's how I figured it out. I don't know how we didn't ever learn about this sooner!

[She gives a huff.] I'm going too fast, but it's pretty exciting! They're our signs, if you haven't figured that out yet. All 12- they're ours. And they're all based on real star patterns. We really did have an influence on this universe. Apparently all humans born on this planet fall under one of our signs. Amazing, isn't it!

The machine's at the comic shop. But I found a book on the zodiac, too! Here, for example, I'm going to read about my sign. It's called 'Libra'. [She pauses for a moment to lick the paper.] 'Diplomatic and urbane, romantic and charming'- hahaha- 'Easygoing and sociable, idealistic and peaceable'... They're all qualities that are supposed to represent our signs, I think! Naturally I am incredibly sociable and romantic and diplomatic and peaceable so this is all one hundred percent absolutely undeniably true.

But the coolest part is, [she takes a breath-] the coolest part is that my sign represents the scales. Equality and justice. And the rest of the signs, are, um, well, you'll see! I think it's all kind of amazing. You should go to the comic shop if you want to see! It's just... I guess even here, it's kind of encouraging to know that we had an impact on things. Somehow.

( action; the comic shop )

[Terezi, dressed in tribute to a certain coolkid, is standing before a rusty machine mounted to the wall. It has a number of different options on it, and after inserting $0.05, it dispenses small tubes of paper containing horoscope information. Terezi is basically choking the thing with nickels and stuffing a bunch in her pockets. She has a lot of Libras and Cancers. Once she amasses enough, she sits down on the curb of the sidewalk and begins sketching on the ground in chalk.]

Caprihorn is most definitely a name I can all be rocking my bad self with some sick rhymes, honk honk!

[wow it is almost bizarre how this is exactly the opposite of Gamzee...not that he can tell] You think so? I dunno, I think I can all be a pretty patient motherfucker.

I like Caprihorn better, though. Hooooooooooooonk! [SORRY IT IS NOW CAPRIHORN FOREVER]

I just got a full appreciation for all the miracles around us, chica. They mention that anywhere in the signbook?
miraculls: (huh | do i look like an idiot to you)

Uhhh...you sure you're all done reading from the right one? I mean, I guess I can eat pies and type with one hand on the husktop at the same time, that might count as being real motherfuckin' organized. [sadly this is about as organized as he can get...]

Really? Like my lusus? Haha, that's pretty cool. Maybe it's all supposed to be describing him instead. [yes, practical about never showing up and ambitious about avoiding the fuck out of his kid sounds pretty accurate here]
miraculls: (hopeful | not clowning around here)

Where can I be buying this book again? I wanna show it to the old goat once the town all up and brings his bad self on over here. [just gonna take that knife of empathy and stab you with it...]

Thanks, chica! Where you at now? [did he already forget why yes he did]
