♑ > I'm forever blowing bubbles, pretty bubbles in the air.

[420]

Who: Gamzee (420) & you
Where: The plaza
When: Afternoon
Style: anything goes
Status: Open!


[Anyone that might visit the coral today might notice that the plaza is really... bubbly. And not in the happy cheerful mood way. Well, maybe that too, but really it is literally bubbly, filled with big fat bubbles floating lazily on the air until they eventually pop in mid air. Or against buildings. Or people.

Or are eaten by a busily honking goose wandering around the plaza. There is that too.

The cause of all the bubbles is sitting calmly, contently, on the edge of the fountain, one leg tucked underneath him, an army worth of bubble wands and soap water next to him. Bubble wands are really not an Alternian thing at all --what battle-focused, cut throat society would go through the trouble of discovering bubble wands?-- and this new discovery has left Gamzee pleased as pie. Occasionally he reaches up, popping a few bubbles with his claws, before adding more to the air.

Anyone, of course, is free to join him. In fact, if Gamzee happens to be your buddy, he might very well have send a text earlier stating nothing else but 'BuBbLeS! MoThErFuCkIn bUbBlEs **eVeRyWhErE**!'. Today is exciting, ok?]

[ Feferi only needs to read the world bubbles before she's off at a sprint for the plaza to go play. And sure enough when she gets there, there are bubbles everywhere. There was never any hope for containing all the glubs that ensue, as she plays at trying to 'catch' the bubbles, each one popping in her palm as she grabs at them. ]

[unconchonable]

[Eridan knew he should have stayed away from the plaza today, as if that insistent honking wasn't enough to discourage him from showing up, the bubbles should have been. He isn't even here because of a message he may or may not have gotten, hell he hasn't even looked at his SFC today, why he's here could be nothing but coincidence, or misfortune.]

[He doesn't even notice Gamzee or Feferi at first, too busy mean-mugging all these damn bubbles, but then there's all that glubbing among the goose honking and he sends a look in its direction, expression softening when he sees his moirail. Naturally, he heads on over, but then he takes notice to the clown--the cause of all these obnoxious bubbles.]

Fef, what are you ewen doin'?

[And then to acknowledge Gamzee.]

What's with all these fuckin' bubbles Gam? Some people like to walk through the plaza without bein' obnoxiously bombarded by these spherical annoyances, y'know.

[420]

[Gamzee had been blowing more and more bubbles in Feferi's direction, delighted at the glubs, and when Eridan shows up to meanmug and complain, he lowers his wand again, giving him a look.]

Awww, brother, no need to be sassing or to get all up in your harsh at. Just chill, yeah? Take a fuckin' load off at your fuckin' hooves and be letting these lil' miracle bros charm your tits off.

[replicatedcourage]

[If Gamzee happens to look up for a moment in the middle of all his bubble-blowing he might happen to catch a glimpse of a black-clad Hylian, standing mesmerized by the floating soap. He's carrying a medium-sized brown box, just carting some things from point A to point B for someone who'd asked, but the bubbles have him thoroughly distracted. They're kind of like the ones that floated around at home and he feels a bit nostalgic seeing them here.

At length, he makes his way over to Gamzee, setting his box aside with a grin.]

Can I blow bubbles too?

[420]

Sure, brother.

[Gamzee indicates the left over bubble wands and soap water with a swipe of his hand. This kind of stuff is there to share with other people. Besides, he had all gotten it for free from one of the store owners who had come to realize that he'd be totally into this stuff.]

What kinda motherfucker would I fuckin' be if I weren't all over sharing a beautiful miracle what like this?

[replicatedcourage]

[With a pleased grin, Sola bends to pick up a wand and puffs his cheeks to blow through it. He gets a few that way, but not nearly as many as he would from waving the wand around. Still, he seems delighted at the result blows a few more before popping it back in the soapy water for a refill.]

This is really fun! It's like the ones in Hyrule but they don't hurt you.

[aim_exorable]

[Of course Darkleer had gotten the message, but it's only now that he's coming back down into the city so that he can get some food. Working all day through the rain on a certain little spidertroll's home takes a lot out of him, even with the help of his robots. Still drying out his hair- he hopes Summoner appreciates its length because this is something of a bother- he wanders into the plaza only to stop. It takes a moment before he remembers Gamzee's message and he gives a small, tired smile as he walks up to the boy.]

It is good to see you're having fun.

[420]

Motherfucker, check it. This shit's off the motherfuckin' hook. Fuck, the hook and the shit ain't even being anywhere near each other, it's all that fuckin' far out.

[During his babbling he had brought his bubble wand up again to blow more bubbles before finally realizing how tired Darkleer looked and he lowers it again.]

You look beat.

[aim_exorable]

Yes, it's very interesting.

[Also simple science, but he won't argue against anything that makes Gamzee happy. That tends to be generally everything, but that's okay.]

Hmmmm I've been busy. I'm working on something up on the island.

[tinypinkmenace]

[Yachiru decided much earlier to take in the all of the sites of Vatheon. Well, she is just really wandering around and finding all the "important" shops. At first, she is caught off guard by the bubble that burst against her cheek. Looking around, she spots the horde of bubbles and runs towards. For the most part, she giggle while chasing after the bubbles which pop when she "catches" them]

So many bubbles!

[420]

[Gamzee laughs, before he stops adding more bubbles, instead rummaging for something besides him, calling over to her. He has clearly recognized a fellow bubble connoisseur in her.]

Hey, lil' sis. You wanna see something real fuckin' awesome?

[tinypinkmenace]

[She stops chasing the bubbles when she hears someone calling her. Spotting him, he did look pretty odd, but she immediately dismisses it because BUBBLES! She cheerfully walks toward him]

Are you making the bubble? I've never seen bubbles this big before! [Awesome? She likes awesome stuff] What?

[withoutasign]

Oh man, these are the greatest things ever! Signless practically dances through the bubbles filling the Plaza and takes a seat next to Gamzee.

"Need some help?"

[420]

"Wanna join? This shit's great."

He holds out a bubble wand to Signless. See, maybe Alternia would be a better place if they had a few more of these things back on their planet. Who can stay grouchy and gruff when you got bubbles blowing everywhere.

[withoutasign]

Nobody, man. Signless is convinced.

Enthusiastically, he takes the offered wand and blows a few small, tentative bubbles of his own. They're not as big as Gamzee's, and they don't go as far, but hey, he's a beginner.

[hypervision]

That's a lot of bubbles... [Though Reisuke wasn't too concerned about the bubbles at first, at least until he spotted a somewhat familiar face--we remember you, you were one of the trolls with the cupcakes some time ago.]

Oh, it's you again! [wave wave] Did you make all of these bubbles yourself?

[420]

[Gamzee squints at him for a while. Yes, he does look familiarish. He has met him before (probably) but remembering where is proving to be somewhat of a-- oh. Cupcakes.]

Ah, it's you again too.

[And then back to the more important thing here. Bubbles.]

I did. Ain't it something to fuckin' be in beholding of?

[bufudine]

[Hm? What is this? Bubbles aren't usually found outside of water so... how...? Serph reaches out to touch one of the bubbles with his finger and it pops! exploding in a burst of water and soap on his finger. Clearly the next thing to do in this impromptu investigation is to stick his finger in his mouth to taste it, soap water residue and all.

...Gross. Not doing that again.

The bubbles are coming from somewhere, though, so he tracks their movement with his eyes before he heads off in the direction of the coral, carefully stepping around the goose along the way.

And sees Gamzee.

Ah... He hesitates a brief moment before he approaches, ducking under a few stray bubbles before they can pop on his face. Gamzee gets a nod in greeting.]

Is this a game?

[420]

Naw, not a game. It's a motherfuckin' miracle all getting its happen on right here.

[Or, you know, it's just a silly, chill way to spend the time. But Gamzee classifies those things as miracles too.]

[trust_the_fuckhead]

Not today, you fucking bastards!

[Oh my. There seems to be a crazed man attacking those poor bubbles with a stick. He pops a few of them with some unbalanced swinging, causing him to fall over himself. he flails his stick while prone, and one bubble manages to break through his haphazard defense, popping on his face. ]

Come on then, I'll take you all to hell with me!

[420]

[That's... well, what does one say to that. There is a weird man popping all his bubbles, spazzing out like they are made of lava rather than soap and magic. It's... well, really. What do you say to that.]

Uuhhh... You aight?

[bethehugejerk]

[When Karkat first receives the message, the response he sends back is, 'GAMZEE I DON'T CARE', then he shuts off his SFC.]

[When he makes his regular trip into the Plaza, however, he sees what the fuss was about: Bubbles. Motherfucking bubbles everywhere.]

[It doesn't take him too long to wend past the harmless, iridescent invaders, touch a hand to the coral, and finally make his way over to his moirail.]

What the most useless hell are you doing?

[420]

[Gamzee, having been caught right in the middle of adding more bubbles to the air, sends another stream of bubbles floating, mostly accidentally aimed at Karkat's face, before he gives his moirail a sunny, chill as fuck smile.]

Bubbling.

[savemegermany]

[ Texts about bubbles is all Italy needs to get distracted. He arrives, smelling like fresh bread, and starts blowing at the bubbles, watching them scurry around each other. ]

Bubbles!!!!

[420]

Fuck yeah!

[Aww yeah, these bubbles are motherfuckin' sweet. Here, let him add some more to the air.]
