[It is nearing curfew and Nepeta is neither in the training center or in her dorm. She is, in fact, in someone else's dorm.

Nothing strange there, sans for the fact that the owner of said dorm is not there with her. How she managed to get in is anyone's guess, but there is a reason she earned the title of Rogue in the trolls' session of SGRUB.

She had been waiting for Vriska to return for a while now, but it was only in the last ten minutes that she became distracted by a fly. Those buggers had a habit of doing that, and she was now engaged in an unspoken competition with it. Both were perched on the windowsill, she behind Vriska's venus fly trap and eying it beadily.

Neither moved--neither would forfeit this match.]

[...that was kind of a cute reaction there, Friska.]

They do? Where can I get it?

[SHHHHHHHH.]

The infirmary, duh. Have you slept at all yet?

[moirailcompass]

I've tried. I've gotten a teeny bit but I always wake up when things start getting real bad.

[betwixttocks.livejournal.com]

Well that's just something you'll have to get used to. Not all of us are Vantas and run on almost empty.

[No surprise here that Karkat isn't sleeping either. She curls up on the floor now]

I use to be okay without it. I didn't have a recuperacoon in my cave but the nightmares got worse after everything that happened in the Veil.

[Leans against the counter and stares down at her.] What was the last thing that happened to you?

[moirailcompass]

...I come furrom after Gamzee lost it. He was trying to kill me.

[Funnily it came out a little easier than when she told Karkat. She knew that was mostly attributed to Equius.

Even though they hadn't really talked much, and even though Nepeta was far from getting over everything that had happened (she wondered if she ever really would) it spoke wonders about just what her moirails presence, knowing that he was nearby did for her.]

Big surprise there.

[She remembered having an (almost) showdown with Makara and Ampora until Kanaya came in and broke it up. In a few pieces, but still.

Suddenly there is the sound of a cup being knocked over on the counter by a small cat (http://www.gingerbreadtearoom.com/a/cats/kitty6.jpg). Vriska hisses and moves around the counter to catch it.] No! Bad Noodles!

[The cat just stares up at her, head cocked to the side.]

[moirailcompass]

Oh hey! Hi there buddy, I remember you!! Where have you been hiding all this time? [All attention has now been taken away]

[betwixttocks.livejournal.com]

[Noodles just meows and falls on its side, limp, when Vriska picks it up. A defensive measure, she was sure.] Probably trying to eat my damn plant again!

You gave me a defective cat, Leijon. I know this. Look! [She holds up poor Noodles, limp and looking oddly at ease in Vriska's hands.]
