Shipping is Very Serious Business.

[Nepeta couldn't say that she was particularly fond of the lab, but she knew she was hardly alone in that sentiment. She was a girl who had grown up in the wild, surrounded by dirt and forest--a cold, dingy, mechanical place like this made her feel particularly restless and alienated. That was probably why she didn't often stay in the computer lab where the others spent so much of their time. As nice as it was being with the others, most of the time they were just busy clack clack clacking away at the computers and trolling one another or the humans. Honestly, they might as well not even be in the same place the way that they insisted on still using computers as a way of communicating. Computers were nice, certainly. She was grateful for her tablet which had kept her in contact with others when she lived in her cave, but back there they had at least actually needed them to be able to keep in contact. You would think that with a moirail like Equius she would have a bit more appreciation for electronics, but she could not help the way she had been raised.

She had left the lab, basket of paints under her arm quite some time ago and gone to the small room she had claimed as her own respiteblock. Here she had been recreating the Shipping Wall that she had lost when her cave collapsed. It was only in its beginning stages, so there were many squares ready to be filled with a pairing. She was starting mainly on the ones she actually shipped from each quadrant, and she gave a small hum of satisfaction as she finished up another pairing in the ashen quadrant. That one was always the trickiest to find pairings for--after all you had to take into account the feelings of three people, not just two. She knew a lot of people considered it the boring quadrant but they just couldn't see the complexities that it brought like she did. Sigh. Oh to be a shipper amongst people who just didn't get it.]

Yeah. It's a bit... complicated. [But, well, when wasn't it? He sighed and watched as she scored them off her wall.] Nothing official yet, but just... watch them. Kanaya completely blows her off when Vriska tries to talk.

[He shrugs.] Not that I can blame her. Vriska is one smugass headache walking these days.

[So it was Kanaya doing the blowing off, interesting. Typically it was the other way around, but good for her.]

You mean she isn't always? [Nepeta giggle a bit, but then put a hand to her mouth to stifle it and looked towards the door as if she half expected Vriska to burst through it. She quickly moves on, cheeks tinging a little.]

I think purrhaps it fur the best. I mean it is a little sad, but only beclaws they've been together fur so long it's kinda hard to think of them not being moirails anymore. But their relationship always seemed....kinda one-sided.

[He looked surprised that she said that, but nodded.]

Yeah. Kanaya did all the work. Vriska... okay, I'll be fair. I don't think she realised that she wasn't holding up her end of it, but the intention doesn't matter in the end. She fucked it up with her lack of empathy.

[That seemed like a very Vriska thing to do....but it was kind of hard to Nepeta to realize how someone could be that out of tune with the person who was suppose to be your moirail]

Makes me wonder how they even got together to begin with. Seems like they have been moirails furever.
