[It's understandable why they might have made that sort of mistake, but it's still never pleasant to see someone carried off by a facsimile of a friend or loved one.]

Sorry.

He'll probably be back, just keep a watch for him.

im going to
i already asked the admin where his body is so im going to head there and wait
just didnt want to let it be a surprise is all

[Not that he thinks they're close or anything from whatever amount they may have spoken, but when he's the one responsible for it in the first place, it felt fairer to warn him.]

[Not that he's going to tell Davesprite as much, but they spoke for all of a few sentences and he wouldn't have been too upset to see the other boy dead except for how it would affect Davesprite.]

Sounds like a good plan. I'm with John at the moment, but if you need me then let me know.

[The name hits him like a punch.]

dont call him that
not when youre talking to me
john is the guy that just ate karkat
i cant see his name and think watson it just doesnt work that way

[advanced]

I'm sorry, but I didn't know and other people won't know either, they're going to call him John because that's his name.

[As sympathetic as he is, that's one thing that he thinks Davesprite needs to learn to deal with.]

damnit bucky
i know they wont
theyve called him that before
and usually its fine but this happened just earlier today
it wont kill you to just use his surname for now

[advanced]

Fine. I'm with him at the moment, but if you need me then you can call.

[Davesprite sighs. He's spent tonight in shifting moods, trying to keep a lid on his grief in a way that's done little but make him irritable and huffy at relatively mild provocation. Bucky's advice, good and appreciated though it is, isn't enough to have prevented that.]

sure
later

[He just doesn't like feeling powerless, is the thing. He hangs up here.]
