[To begin with, their is an adorable kitten scurrying about Rose's bed. Previous to switching on the feed, Countess Belladonna has been making it her business to use Rose's hands as chew toys. Laughing, Rose turns the device up towards herself and smiles. It is a smile of a girl who is up to no good. It is the smile of a girl who has found gold at the end of the rainbow.

It is the smile of a girl who has recently been made aware of something both hilarious and utterly baffling. Bless you, Gamzee Makara, and your no brain to mouth filter. ]

Good afternoon! If you'll forgive this intrusion into your day to day lives, I have recently come across some information that has had me in a conundrum for the last couple of days. I hope none of you will think me a gossip, but curious minds are eager for answers after all.

[She clears her throat. ]

Just who let Gamzee and Eridan come together in romantic union in the past? I almost couldn't believe my ears.

[Questions to be asked later: how often did they make-out and why this.

A couple of minutes after this question, she switches to private:]

Tavros, Nepeta -- are you busy at the moment?

Well I Cant Really Speak To It Since I Dont Know Him But By Reputation
Though He Does Seem A Little Weird

[nitidus]

He is a little eccentric, I think.

[glowsferatu]

I Imagine He Would Have To Be If The Rumors Are True

[nitidus]

And which rumors are they?

[glowsferatu]

You Know
That Whole Thing With Nygma
Its A Little Baffling Because Most Humans Dont Even Understand Romantic Hate
If Its Even True I Mean

[nitidus]

You're kidding.

[glowsferatu]

You Mean You Havent Heard That Yet
Thats Surprising
If It Should Be Revealed Only To Be A Rumor I Would Expect You To Be A Primary Suspect For Its Origin

[nitidus]

Perhaps it was my predecessor.

[glowsferatu]

Yes Thats What I Meant
The You That Wasnt Entirely You
Im Sure You Had Stories On The Topic Somewhere
Though I Was Never Given Opportunity To Read Them

[nitidus]

I'm afraid I may have to go and find them now.

[glowsferatu]

In Doing So You May Even Locate Some Hidden Storage Space
Depending On How Youd Have Preferred To Keep Them From Prying Eyes

[nitidus]

Well this sounds terribly exciting.

[glowsferatu]

I Cant Even Imagine
It Must Be Akin To Plundering The Deepest Caverns Of A Life Long Past
Only To Find A Collection Of Your Own Thoughts That Youve Never Had
Both Familiar And Alien At The Same Time

[nitidus]

I bet they are very interesting.
I shall begin searching at once.

[glowsferatu]

Do Keep Me Posted On The Progress
In Case You May Need A Um
Proofreader Or Something

[nitidus]

Yes, absolutely. I will absolutely need you to double check I have their characters pin pointed to perfection that they resemble reality as closely as possible. It wouldn't do, if, for example, Edward found himself wearing frills to work.

[glowsferatu]

I Could Imagine Edward In Ruffles Without Much Strain
Osborn Is Another Matter

[nitidus]

Perhaps if we imagine hard enough. I could ask him.

[glowsferatu]

Do You Think He Would Comply
He Seems Too Stern A Fellow To Care Much For Any Dalliance With Frills

[nitidus]

If I told me it was for science, maybe.

[glowsferatu]

It Will Have To Be A Dramatic Redefinition Of Science Of Course
Something More Befitting Your Purpose
Center It Around Curiosity Probably Science Has A Lot To Do With That
But It Should Only Be For Internal Consideration Anyway
He Probably Doesnt Need To Hear It

[nitidus]

Admittedly, I can't say that my personal tastes equate to older men in frills. Science it will have to be.
Perhaps the relation between those over forty and their need to let loose?

[glowsferatu]

Well You Were The One Who Mentioned Frills To Begin With
But Would They Really Serve As An Indication Of Letting Loose
I Suppose They Could Signify Luxuries That Are Otherwise Unnecessary
But Could One Scientifically Translate That To The Literal Adoption Of Such A Style In His Wardrobe

[nitidus]

To be honest, I really cannot imagine Edward letting loose in such a way. Perhaps with a feather boa? Or a lot of fur? Maybe even a thong with a lot of question marks?

[glowsferatu]

Only In the Most Private Of Contexts
And Osborn Would Ache To See Him Lean In Such An Array
