[ dave turns his hand over under rose's, lacing their fingers together on automatic. he's not as touchy-feely as, say, roxy? but he's more than comfortable with his siblings being in his space and sharing it. and maybe the offered comfort is necessary. ]
Twice. [ unless i go drop in a request WHICH I WILL SHORTLY MAYBE. ] With Jade, we were just sitting there. And we both independently had a little moment with our brains havin' an acrobatic pirouette off the handle of sanity? Then Bro and I were just talkin' and he had a moment like that, followed by tellin' me about it, which...led to me havin' a moment, and then I told him about that and then he had another moment.
[ ... ]
It was really fuckin' stupid and those ones happened all one after the other really quick. But that was hours after Jade and I had our whatever. [ he's stalling and he knows he is and maybe he understands the part where dirk might try to protect him from this in the future. still, he'll answer rose, because she asked and he trusts her more than anyone else and she's the strongest person he knows: ]
The second thing, the one you were at. It was...weird as fuck. It was like, all rainbows and hyperactive bullshit. Everyone looked weird? Except you. You looked nice, you were in a tuxedo. But Bro's hair was like bright orange and he looked - ok he looked really calm and stoic but everyone else looked like they were high on life, and by life I mean drugs, and Rox had like teal hair and everyone was wearing candy as accessories and they all had maniacal grins - except Bro, he was chill - and we were liftin' you up on like, a chair? I think it was a wedding. Your wedding? You were in a tuxedo??
[ he's not sure if this is better or worse than the crocodiles. it feels worse, if only because hallucinating your sister's hypothetical drugged out wedding is possibly really fucking sappy and that might make it Worse on automatic. maybe dave is sappy, maybe that's true, but having to doxx himself on it will never not be terrible? ]
I think it's possible I'm goin' crazy, except Jade and Dirk are too so I'm not sure that's exactly it. Are mass hallucinations that happen all at different times a thing?
