( text; ) Karkat is the one that fell down a hole this time
OKAY SO YOU GUYS KNOW HOW EVERYONE GOT COOL STUFF AFTER THE THOUGHT FISHIES WENT AWAY AND I HAD TO PUNCH A SHARK AND HOW I GOT A MUSTANG (LIKE THE ACTUAL HORSE NOT THE CAR)??? WELL I DID! BUT IT WAS WILD SO I HAD TO BREAK IT IN. AND I FINALLY MANAGED IT WITH ONLY A COUPLE KICKS TO THE EVERYTHING.
CAN'T USE SHIFT CAUSE I'M PRETTY SURE I BROKE MY HAND CLEANING HIS HOOVES. TYPING WITH THE OTHER.
OH AND I GOT SOME COOL OUTFITS TOO! I DON'T KNOW WHAT ALL OF THEM ARE BUT ONE HAS A WHIP AND A HAT AND ANOTHER LOOKS LIKE A POLICE UNIFORM AND A SPOOKY ONE AND A COUPLE OTHERS. I LOOK REALLY GOOD IN THEM!
GUYS MY HAND LOOKS REALLY GROSS LOOK AT THIS:
HOLD ON I'M HAVING TROUBLE TURNING ON VID
( video; english )
--oh, there we go!
[ America grins, then turns the video to his hand. It's swollen, one of the fingers is blackened, and the nail has fallen off. He has to show everyone his gross injuries always. He turns it back to himself; he's wearing his Indiana Jones outfit, minus the hat. ]
Sick, right? I'm gonna splint it up and stuff, so hopefully it won't take too long to heal! And then I can get to work making a saddle to fit him and Namine's pony! The plains should be thawed enough to graze them this spring. Man, I'm excited to finally get to ride again!
And if anyone has some pain meds or anything, that'd be cool.
[ America gives a thumbs up with his non-broken hand before shutting off the video. ]

... Five hundred years! Or four hundred. Four to five hundred years since proper knights on horseback.
no subject
But still.
You're British.
You've gotta have knights. Or pirates!
no subject
Their hygiene was awful but people are a fascinating bunch. Except for the killing and war. I'm not so fond of that.
no subject
Coooool! I was knighted by Chopin, but that's not the same thing as being around in the age of dragons and plague, ya know? Luckily I was the one with cowboys and the pony express and all that cool stuff!
no subject
Knighted? Good on you! And yeah, railroads and cowboys and the wild west. Definitely love that. Except the gunfights.
But especially Stetsons.
no subject
The gun fights are fun though! Everything else is great and all too, of course! I had a Stetson for a while but it kept flying off my head when I had to make a get away, so I traded it for a saddle pad.
no subject
That's why you get a string! A string, Al! Like a thing, attached to the hat, and then you tie it so it hangs down and it'll sit on your back when you don't want to wear it.
no subject
I always forgot about the string...
no subject
You could get a new one here. But that's okay; people forget about a lot of things all the time. It's usually the things we don't want to remember that stick around.
no subject
I've got a cowboy hat left over from Isaac and Miria! The string broke on that one, though, and I haven't really used it since I went crazy with the chip getting out.
And... yeah, I get that.
[ His smile strains a bit at the truth in those words, but he manages not to falter.
...Even though his string is broken ;n; ]

All right, I am the best uncle ever, I'm like everybody's favorite uncle combined into one brilliant, handsome bloke in a bow tie.
