Technology.

Nothing fun about technology, when it consistently malfunctions.

When you consistently have to fix it.

I feel that way all the time.

Everyone in my family, all my friends, everyone just says

"HEY FIX MY SHIT."

Not everyone really says that, just Karkat.

But someone's always asking.

I don't even get paid man.

"HEY, get a life and stop bugging me. I'm busy with other peoples shit dude."

"LIKE WHO? IT'S A SUNDAY."

"Your mom. Go away."

I turned up the volume on the TV as my fingers continuously repeated memorized combinations.

Smash bros. Was my shit.

Especially Project M.

Karkat came in and sat on the couch with me.

"YOUR A FUCKING DORK, YOU KNOW THAT?"

"Your a fucking ass, you know that?"

And then I heard it.

That ringing in your ears, the noise was dreadful

"FAILURE" was heard from the game.

"FFFFFFUUUUUCCCKKKKK"

I said, failing to keep my cool.

I threw my controller.

"You messed me up!!!" I yelled

He proceeded to laugh at my failure.

"Fuck you!!!!"

"HAHAHAHA!! YOU NEED TO GET A LIFE (L/N)"

"I don't want a life. I have you and my shitty family, that's enough for me."

"YOU NEED SOME MORE FRIENDS."

"No I don't I'm fine Karkat"

"YOU KNOW, I HAVE A FRIEND THAT IS JUST LIKE YOU. I SHOULD INTRODUCE YOU TO HIM."

"If he's just like me I probably wouldn't like him"

"YEAH YOU WOULD. IM COMING OVER AT NINE-ISH TOMORROW. SO GET YOUR ASS UP AT SEVEN."

He ran out of the door.

What the fuck.

"Gee thanks. New friends"

Fucken hell.
