Look... I know this is sad... but it has come to this...

I will need to start skipping some reviews.

Oh noooooooo!

Oh yes. Unfortunately, I'm not writing as fast as I was anymore. There are over 70 reviews people, 70! Please, don't feel insulted if I don't use yours! There could be various reasons why!

It may contain lots of things I simply do not understand.

It may contain lots of god awful singing, no offense.

It may repeat dares that have either happened recently or happened a lot.

And although I hate to do this, I may skip a review simply because I don't like it. Sorry!

Please don't use this as an excuse to re-write your review so that I will use it, because that's what I'm trying to fix here! So ya. Can you believe we're on chapter 15?! It hasn't even been one week! Insanity. Absolute insani-

A storm rages outside. Yes, thunderstorms are possible in winter. (Wait, did I just cut myself off up there?) It's the next morning, and Jake and Dirk came down seeming quite satisfied with their feelings jam. Unfortunately, the author had no idea if it ended in sloppy make outs or not. The power hasn't been cut off yet and everyone is watching TV. It's kinda one of the only things to do around here, other than pranks and stuff. There were various suggestions on what to watch, and they were just going down the list. Right now they were watching My Little Pony.

Karkat: WHAT EVEN IS THIS? WHO SUGGESTED THIS?

Jake: I can check...

Dirk: No, no, that won't be necessary.

Nepeta: :33 i think this is pawsitively adorable! we should watch some more!

Vriska: That discord guy seems pretty interesting.

Meenah: Rig) (t?

Dave: this show is stupid.

Jade: you don't have to watch it!

Dave: i do have to watch it. for ironic purposes.

Jade: how is that ironic?

Dave: you wouldnt understand.

Jade: clearly!

Author: I hate to break up the pony-fest over there, but how about we get some more reviews in?

Karkat: PLEASE!

The cast pauses the show and sits in their seating chart. Kanaya's wearing a hat and changed her outfit a while ago, but Gamzee hasn't really done anything about the pink dye yet. He clearly stone-cold does not give a fuck.

Author: Alright, reviews for today!

Are you all enjoying the pranks and lack of 8's? No? Good.

...I need help. :I

Karkat - Dare: Whenever you wake up, I still want that 10 minute rant.

Author/Terezi - Dare: Author, paint a bucket 'cherry' red, and give it to Terezi. Terezi, lick it.

Gamzee - Truth: How do you feel about the miracle known as the double rainbow?

Rose - Dare: Act like Patrick from the Spongebob Squarepants cartoon for the rest of the day.

YES, I'M GETTING BETTER AT THIS.

um, i just read all of this in one sitting, and its so great, so funny, i love it! and, uh, if you allready have too many dares and stuff its fine, but:
Terezi- have sloppy make outs with dave
Karkat-do something cute! (not that you aren't allready!)
Author-give Eridan ten empty buckets as a present. :)

Author: Cool. Cool. Good list of dares. Starting right away, Karkat! You may do a ten-minute rant about how much you hate everyone and everything, and we all just have to sit here and listen.

Karkat: FAN FUCKING TASTIC, I HAVE SOME THINGS TO SAY.

Author: We know. Aaaaaaaand... start!

Karkat, as expected, begins to yell at pretty much everyone. Everyone sits there with bored looks on their faces, some not even paying attention at all. It doesn't matter to Karkat. He seems to avoid even talking in Nepeta's direction, as after the last chapter she admitted her feelings for him and he hasn't really talked to her since. Toward the end of the rant, some characters even start to fall asleep, such as Meenah and Tavros. Jake falls asleep leaning on a table, and Jane falls asleep on his shoulder. Dirk is not a happy camper.

Author: Alright, time's up! Sit down, Karkat, and then we can *yawn* move on.

He sits down, fairly pleased with himself.

Author: Okay, next... one sec, I'll be right back.

She gets up and leaves, making her way to their store of buckets and paints one red. She returns and hands it to a happy Terezi.

Terezi: WH4T 1S TH1S?

She licks it.

Terezi: 1T T4ST3S 4W3SOM3!

Author: It's a red bucket.

Terezi: OH, 3WW, 3WW!

She throws it across the room.

Author: Haha, sorry! Had to do it! So Gamz, have you heard of a double rainbow?

Gamzee: THOSE THINGS...

Author: ...

Gamzee: ... are motherfucking miraculous, man.

Author: Yes, yes they are!

Gamzee: MIRACLES EVERYWHERE...

Author: Good for you, Gamz. Hey Rose, have you ever watched Spongebob?

Rose: Yes.

Author: You need to act like Patrick for the rest of the day.

Rose: I don't know if I'm capable of acting that stupid...

Author: Well you can try, right?

Rose: I suppose...

Author: Fantastic! Make an honest effort now. Actually, you could help me with the next dare. We need to make a bucket pile in the corner.

Rose: Alright!

The author and Rose abscond, then return with all the buckets in the house. They both dump them in a nice, large and quite uncomfortable pile in the corner. Rose, in an attempt to be stupid, places one on her head but the author just shakes her head and takes it off.

Author: Karkat! Fish boy! Get your asses in this pile and start making out!

Calliope: why is it that eridan seems to be doing all of the kissing?

Author: Right?

Vriska shoves Karkat into the pile, and Eridan gets in after him. Although Karkat flails around and resists, they still make out.

Author: (Now Kar, tell him you have red feelings for him.)

Karkat: (BUT I DON'T!)

Author: (Lie! But say it like you mean it!)

He does. Eridan blushes but looks pleased.

Karkat: JUST KIDDING, ASSHOLE, THAT WAS MY DARE.

Eridan: r-right! i kneww that...

I fucking love hugs!

The author hugs Homestucker.

Love ya!

Author: Oh yay! Feelings jam time! Oh Jade and Daaaave!

Jade: we have to go?

Dave: at least i dont need to do it with karkat...

Jade: should i be insulted?

Dave: no! no! lets just go...

Jade: woof!

Dave sighs and starts to head upstairs, with Jade eagerly following.

Author: Now if you'll all excuse me, I have some appearification to do...

The author absconds, and the cast continues to watch My Little Pony while they wait. A while later she comes back with Jadesprite and Becquerel, then heads upstairs to get Dave and Jade.

Author: Yo, you guys done?

She opens the door to find them, surprisingly, just talking. Huh. She tells them to finish up, and the three head back downstairs. Jade's eyes widen when she sees Bec, and she runs over and hugs him.

Dave: fantastic.

Jade: oh dont be like that! becs a good dog!

Dave: sure...

Author: Jade, head back upstairs! You need to have a feelings jam with Jadesprite!

Jade: shes here?!

Jadesprite: ...

Author: Yes! Go!

They abscond, although Jade has lost all of her enthusiasm.

Author: Okey dokey, next! Terezi and Dave, it's sloppy make out time!

Dave: i just got back from a feelings jam!

Author: So?

Terezi: GOOD PO1NT!

She tackles him and ensues sloppy make outs. Karkat sits there watching in horror.

Author: This is going well! Don't you think this is going well?

Karkat: NO.

Author: Glad you agree! Now Eridan, I have a present for you!

She hands him a box. He looks quite surprised, then opens it excitedly. When he sees the buckets he screams and falls over backwards, much to the enjoyment of everyone else.

Author: Well, that's all for now! Sorry for the short chapter! Farewell!

Look, I know this chapter was pretty short and pretty much sucked, but I've just lost all interest, people! Don't be surprised if there aren't any chapters for a long time, but I really just need a nice long break from this story. Don't blame me now, you're all sending in a shitload of reviews and I've written a lot of chapters in just a few short days! Not to mention the chapters just seem to run together. I'm getting bored. So yeah. Be thankful I'm telling you this instead of leaving you in the dark, and I hope you understand.

Not to advertise, but if you need something else to read, I will be updating my other story fairly regularly, so... hehe... yeah. Love ya!
