[....Boy, it's a bit early to be making a video, isn't it? But it would seem someone's set on it, the way the feed settles on the open window of a room before it's turned around to show... Rakka. She seems rather awake, despite the early hours, peering down at her gear with those big eyes.]

Look at this.

[Quiet voice, Rakka. A simple thing to ask before she moves the screen again, jostling it but actually making it clear that they're going to the window and the gear is heading riiiight through it.

Outside the window was Violet city, obviously quiet and dark at this hour, though not so much now as it used to be. The street lamps provide decent illumination, but that's not what Rakka wanted the gear to see as she turns the gear around so it's facing upwards. Pointed into the dark night sky, you get an impressive view at the expanse of twinkling stars up there.]

They're beautiful, right? ...But at the same time they also seem strange. The stars here remind me of the ones back home. I was wondering if any of them are the same, or if I would even be able to tell. [Off-screen, Rakka breaths a quiet sigh.] Maybe not...

[She pulls the screen back into view of her again.] At least I'm getting used to this world now. It's been... [yaaawn] easier then before... Huh?

[Now is the perfect time for a couple of sleepy Doduo heads to poke their heads into the frame and seek attention via tenderly and repeatedly nudging their trainer. Absolutely. It helps sleep-deprived Rakka notice them.]

H-hey, what's wrong? I'm not doing anything...! [Wait, unless she... oops. Whisper time should still be in effect uuhhh] I'll go to bed soon, really...

[And the feed is cut there. Pleasant dreams, Route.]

FUCK I FORGOT ABOUT THAT. YEAH A YEAR ISN'T LONG ENOUGH TO LEARN EVERYTHING AT ALL.
WHAT ABOUT THIS PLACE? HAVE YOU FOUND ANY REALLY HELPFUL BOOKS OR ANYTHING?

well there's a few books stores I've looked at. And I found some books in the pokemon center here about Sprout tower.

oh yeah! I watched one of the movies you recommended!

YOU DID? WHICH ONE?

[Was it Hitch please say it was Hitch. Or not. Whatever. And yes, this is clearly more important than books, romance > all, etc.]

The
the one about the guy that teaches people how to date I think?

[So probably Hitch. And yes, this is more important then anything else.]

... AND? WHAT DID YOU THINK?

[oh shit better answer this one carefully]

I liked it! I thought it was kinda funny

uh there were some jokes I didn't get though.

[Mostly the references... and the swearing. mmh.]

In the end I don't think it was too bad. so, thanks for recommending it to me.

OH. YEAH SOME OF THE HUMAN REFERENCES DON'T MAKE A LOT OF SENSE. I ASKED DAVE ABOUT SOME OF THEM BUT HE DOESN'T ALWAYS GIVE ME STRAIGHT ANSWERS. HE MIGHT TELL YOU THOUGH.
ANYWAY YOU'RE WELCOME. I'M GLAD YOU LIKED IT.

[Normally, he'd press for more details, but he's getting the distinct impression his usual ~~foaming at the mouth~~ impassioned analysis might go over her head? Maybe? That and he'd. Find it really hard to restrain himself from snapping at her if she disaahhaha okay no he'd be able to restrain himself but god would it hurt.]

THE TROLL VERSION IS BETTER, BUT OBVIOUSLY THEY DON'T HAVE IT HERE. HUMAN WILL SMITH OR WHATEVER THE FUCK HIS POKÉQUIVALENT IS ISN'T TOO BAD THOUGH.]

Thanks. I'll try to ask Dave about it then. there has to be something about it that he understands better then I do.

[Or maybe he'll just laugh about the fact that Karkat's gotten someone else into romcoms. This is the kind of life they have, but somehow Rakka was lucky enough to not be deserving of the blunt of it.]

Huh? You have a troll version of this movie?
and a troll version of will smith?
or uh this actor? Really?

[... this is true. Also, uh. Fuck. Wait, maybe he can. Fudge a little?]

SOMETHING LIKE THAT?
IT'S SORT OF FUCKING COMPLICATED. LET'S JUST SAY THE TROLL VERSION EXISTED FIRST.

it does? is that real?

[....]

Are there Troll versions of other humans?

[god

DAMMIT]

LOOK IT'S A REALLY LONG STORY.
THE SHORT ANSWER IS YES? BUT IT'S REALLY FUCKING COMPLICATED AND I DON'T THINK WE SHOULD GET INTO IT.

uh

oh okay. it's pretty late anyway. another time!

[...]

YEAH. NEXT TIME, MAYBE

[....]

I probably shouldn't be awake so long. I'll talk to you later, Karkat

YEAH, OK.
LATER.

[Rakka, please don't ask again, he does not want to tell you about Homestuck.]
