Us plus Dirk and Karkat, I suppose. J-J-D-D-K? Geez, that's a lot of letters, how are we going to make a clever homophonic acronym out of that.
[The advantage to having Grass types in abundance is they're always on standby to sprinkle some Sleep Powder around for the more rowdy creatures like the bull Jade is currently handling. Once it's asleep, she passes off carrying duties to Sirius and turns back to Dave.]
Hehe, you need some help there, pard'ner?
[Jade is this really a good time to be making fun of your friend's accent.]
[He makes no move to got this. Or to come down. Dave could stay in this tree for the rest of his life, he's pretty sure. Could raise some kids in this tree. Could grow old and retire in this tree.]
J-J-D-D-K. Shit, I don't know. I've been reliably informed the leader's gotta have the first letter, too, so we can't cheat and make it DJ something-or-other. Like, DJ Jacked. Because we're all jacked as hell.
[He flexes a bicep, up there in the tree. Maybe. It's sort of hard to tell, since he doesn't have much bicep to speak of.]
Yeah totally, Dave, I am swooning as we speak at your levels of swole.
[See, she's even putting a hand to her forehead to imitate the most artful swoon these cows and Dave have ever seen.]
Well...Weiss's name makes up the U part in the "ruby" sound...even though W is not a single U trying to make it on its own. So I don't think anyone will penalize us for not making a perfect transfer. "Jacked" seems like it would work for our J-J-D-D-K needs, except the connotations are a little awkward considering our history.
[They all got Jacked one way or another.]
If we rearrange it to JJKDD maybe it can be "Joked"? John would probably enjoy that.
[Ah. Yes, she has a point about the whole Jacked thing, and he is going to acknowledge that point by running as far away from that topic as he can in the least possible amount of time, which means not addressing it at all. You win, Jade. You win.
The Miltank is getting bored, so he swings his legs down and leans forward from his perch a bit, letting his feet dangle.]
Man, if we could add extra letters in we could be Team Jim-jam Kiddos. Apt and adorable. Or maybe we could make the J's be I's, like weren't they the same letter back in Latin. Team...I Kidded. JKJDD. That sounds dumb.
There's always fudging it and calling it "Jinxed." You know, since you have twins, one a prankster and the other a witch, two knights, and a prince. We're quite a mixed bag.
[She comes over to pat the Miltank and gently guide them to Sirius for herding.]
Though I don't know where that leaves Rose in the equation whenever she comes.
[Dave hesitates, caught in the moment just before jumping down. You think she will? It'd be too babyish to ask, too clear how much he misses his sister, so he just hops down lightly as soon as the way is clear and brushes himself off.]
Well, then we're team Jerked, obviously. Fucking amazing.
Yeah, I think that sums us up very well, Rose would probably like it. She might even be able to relate it back to some repressed psychological trauma we are all experiencing.
[That's not exactly a joke so much as stating a fact.]
Speaking of trauma, are you okay post being menaced by a cow?
Pfft--no! I learned about it when I was working at the diner, you have to have equal parts ice cream and milk. Though considering Pokemon, I wouldn't be surprised if somewhere down the line there was an evolution of Miltank that produced milkshakes as a healing item.
Okay, because if that were how milkshakes worked, I'd have to have one. A Miltank, I mean. Just steal a dogie right off the ranch. I have principles but not that many principles.

Happens all the time. [Poor Tavros.] Thanks for the rescue, though. Swoon, swoon.

I think you've done given me a case of the vapors, Miss Harley. My hero.
