[Guess who's been in the park practicing his wicked skateboard moves? This guy.

Guess who fell off said skateboard and fell asleep in the grass in the park? Also this guy.

Mituna's lying under the shade of a tree, one arm tucked up under his head, his skateboard upside-down with the wheels slowly turning a few feet away.

===> Disturb the yellowblood?]

Nepeta likes visiting the park! It's a wide open space and has lots of lovely green grass for a kitty troll to roll around in playfully. It's also a good place to bring her two little kittens out for some fresh air, tiny bells on their collars to make sure she'll be able to track them down if they try running off.

And one of them certainly does! Fluffy white Pounce has scented out Mituna and runs closer, accidentally bumping into his side and falling over with a pathetic squeak.

[helmetdoesnothing]

It hadn't taken Mituna long to decide he liked the park. Enough to fall asleep in it, at least. When a small and fluffy something bumps into his side he jerks up onto one elbow in a sharp movement of gangly limbs, and stares for one long uncomprehending moment at the small meowbeast that just assaulted him.

Then, he rolls onto his stomach and tucks his hands under his chin to stare at it.

[bestestfurrend]

The kitten doesn't seem to know what to do with all this scrutiny! It makes another tentative squeak, and then reaches out to place its paw on Mituna's nose.

A certain kitty-troll is also watching from a short distance away, the other kitten in her arms, not making the slightest sound so as not to disturb this cute scene.

[helmetdoesnothing]

Mituna doesn't move, but scrunches his nose up, and makes the slightest sound as he slides one hand forwards to place the tip of one long finger against the kitten's nose.

He hasn't seen Nepeta yet, but he's never seen such a tiny meowbeast before!

[Someone had mind to use the park as well. Disciple had nothing planned for the day, so she thought to have a little self-picnic and catch up on some books she had been distracted away from.]

[She arrives to see a yellowblood she does not recognize. Too small to be Psii, and too large to be Sollux. So then who was this, and why did he look hurt?]

[Disciple opts to disturb the yellowblood, walking over and gently nudging him on the shoulder.]

Hey there, are you alright?

[helmetdoesnothing]

[The reaction is instant. Mituna rolls away from the unfamiliar touch on his shoulder with a snarl of spluttering expletives, and lifts widened eyes to the adult troll in front of him when he finally scrambles into a sitting position.

He presses his back firmly to the tree he was resting under, watching her from behind the visor of his helmet.]

[feralfanatic]

[That was not what she had been expecting. At all.]

[The oliveblood carefully sets down the basket she had been holding, and takes a step back. Her arms are up in a nonthreatening posture, showing what she hopes he interprets as no signs of hostility. Those claws tipping her fingers sure look sharp, though. ]

Sorry, I did not mean to frighten you. I do not want to hurt you, I just wanted to make sure you were not hurt with the way you were lying there.

[helmetdoesnothing]

[Once the initial surprise wears off - which is quickly - his shoulders relax. He sounds relatively cheerful when he speaks next.]

I wath thleeping.

[His fingertips dance lightly over the blades of grass beside him.]

[Well, that is not something you see every day. Gamzee sips his bottle of faygo idly, staring down on the sleeping yellowblood. Seems kinda fuckin' miracle like how even more of them are showing up. This one is like Sollux and Psii, just like how the short loud one was like Karkat and Signless, and Kurloz was like him and the motherfucker what he didn't like to think about. Real amazing, really.

Some people might be tempted to wake Mituna up.

Some people.

Not Gamzee.

Wow, what kinda motherfucker do you think he is, waking up a dude obviously really enjoying his chillitude? Way harsh.

He sips his faygo a bit longer, before he finally moves to actually plop his ass down by the sleeping yellowblood, letting himself fall back onto his back then. His arms end up mostly spread out, as he idly watches the top of the bubble. Or what he can see of it through the leaves of the tree.]

[helmetdoesnothing]

[It's a while before Mituna stirs at all and when he does it's somewhat groggily, with a dull fizzing sound located somewhere around his temples. He lifts his head as if the helmet has made it unwieldy, and finally focuses his gaze on the troll next to him.

At first, he thinks it's Kurloz. Then he remembers that they're not that young anymore, and Kurloz never really dressed like that, but something about this troll gives him the same kind of feeling. Similar, but fainter. He squints, not quite able to grasp onto it.

Slowly, he pushes himself up to a sitting position, and cocks his head to one side. He looks up, to the top of the bubble, and his attention lingers there for a long few seconds before it strays again, back to the purpleblood.]

... Hey. Hi.

[420]

Yo.

[Gamzee raises a hand from where he is sprawled out. He actually got a good chill here going now. It's real nice to just take a minute and relax, feel all that ground under your husk like it is holding you up, and the grass tickling against his arms like a thousand tiny little hairs.

Man, that's deep.]

Hey, you ever thought like... grass is like fuckin' hair for the ground?

[helmetdoesnothing]

[Mituna looks down at the grass, considers, then ducks his head slightly to pull his helmet off. His hair puffs up, and hell knows how he actually fits it all in there. After a moment, he lies down next to Gamzee, and tucks his hands under his head.]

That'th thome ff-fucking thponge-thtirring thhit.

[One day he'll have to get something to do about that lisp. One day.]

[aim_exorable]

[ ===> Drop blanket on sleeping yellowblood ]

[What? The weather as of late has been fairly cold, although it's mostly been restricted to the surface. One can never be too careful, especially with yellowbloods who don't seem particularly there sometimes.]

[...Or maybe he's just making excuses to fuss.]

[Regardless, after that, Darkleer just goes a few steps away to another tree to sit down and read his latest puzzle-bought book on other world's technology. If he's too close, he's worried he'd scare the kid.]

[helmetdoesnothing]

[Mituna twitches under the blanket as it's dropped on him, but it's soft and warm and gradual enough that it doesn't shock him from sleep. Spending over a week periodically freaking out over fish, over getting lost, over there being too many people and over the sound of his bloodpusher beating in his ears has been more than enough to tire him out.

Presently, he rolls over, gets himself tangled and struggles in a somewhat pathetic fashion for a moment, until he opens his eyes and realises there's a blanket on him. There's a long, quiet pause while he sits there, rubbing his thumbs over the soft material, then he looks around for the culprit.]

[aim_exorable]

[Well, he's not too far away at the next tree, and looks up when he hears the struggle.]

Are you alright?

[helmetdoesnothing]

[Stare. Staaaaaaaaaare.]

... Yeth.

[More staring. Wow it really looks like he's concentrating.]

What are you doing.

[paladaddy]

[Well that certainly is a thing. Shiro will just go over there and prod at Mituna with the tip of his boot.]

Hey kiddo, you okay?

[helmetdoesnothing]

[Wow rude. The sleeping troll flails away from the prodding, in the most inelegant way imaginable, and stares up at Shiro as if the man had grossly offended him somehow.

When he's speaks it's a mess of stammering and trying to get his sibilant sounds around slightly-too-long sharp teeth.]

Wh-what the fff-fuck do you want?!

[paladaddy]

[So he's testy and possibly cranky. Good to know, Shiro will approach with some semblance of caution.]

It looked like you took a fall, I was just checking to see if you needed help.

[zipperlips]

[Always disturb the yellowblood.

Or, not disturb, exactly, since he isn't going to wake him up. Instead, he picks up the skateboard, sets it down by the tree, and takes a seat himself, idly tracing the pattern of finger bones on his gloves.]

[helmetdoesnothing]

[Presently, Kurloz will get a fluffy-haired head plonked onto his lap, one red and one blue eye looking up at him. He grins.]

Hi.

[zipperlips]

[That gets a grin and a wave. And, after a moment, Mituna's hair will be fluffed back over his eyes, then combed away again. Because look at those miracles that he can see for once!]

[boarderpatrol]

[ He'd been watching the grey-skinned-whatever for a while, getting almost progressively angrier the more he watched the guy wipe out. How could anyone try so hard and fail so bad?

And that last one-- ouch.

...Wait. Was he unconscious now? Oh god tell him he wasn't unconscious.

Yata dropped his own board to the ground and kicked himself over to the prone alien, hopping off at the edge of the grass to go nudge him with a foot. ]

Oi. You're not dead or nothin', are you?

[helmetdoesnothing]

[He does try so hard, and to be fair most of the moves he pulls would be pretty damn impressive if he didn't lose his balance and fall off his board at the end.

It's an unfortunate habit of this particular troll to throw a temper tantrum at himself and then nod off, so when Yata nudges him, he's fast asleep, and twitches violently before rolling away from him, scrambling up into a half-crouched position. With the arrangement of awkwardly gangly limbs, he probably couldn't look less graceful if he tried.]

... Not thinthe I wath here.

[boarderpatrol]

[ Oh good he got up.

Uh... sort of? Yata isn't exactly entirely sure. But at the very least, he knows the guy's alive. ]

Not since-- oh you were dead before you got here.

[ He's used to that by now. Thanks, Mikoto. ]

You new to boarding or what?
