Did someone say skull cracking?
"Did somebody say crackin' skulls?! Woo! FUCK yeah!"
Heads turn, as they so often do when Gamzee says something that Gamzee would say. Valerie gives a polite little wave in the troll's general direction, beaming just a tad at his new acquaintance. Judging by the apprentice mage's tone, one could only assume he had already overcome the little practice trial Valerie had assigned him, and in such a short time as well. Strazio always had a habit of keeping colorful company, but this boy had proved to be a significantly intriguing character. They made quite the duo indeed. It seems that today was ripe with cliches, for the planty magician sincerely hoped that they would not lead each other down their own separate paths of ruin. They must stick together to have any hope of quelling their respective rages.
"Just in time, Gamzee, though you missed the existential crisis bullshit," Strazio says with a nod in his apprentice's direction. "Don't suppose you know what Dante's Abyss is?"
Gamzee nods vigorously.
"Nope!"
Strazio opens his mouth to say something, thinks better of it, and sighs before continuing. "Well, the easiest way to explain it would be to call it a combat tournament type thing. You'll probably die. I'll probably die. Hell, we might kill each other. It'll be great practice."
"But we'd respawn right?" Gamzee asks. "No hard feelings?"
Strazio shrugs before responding, "Not between me and you, no. I'm using it as a lesson, but I can't speak for the other combatants. I won't lie to you, Gamzee - you may make some powerful enemies."
"Sounds like a good motherfuckin' time, bro!" The alien crows, stressing the 'i' in time.
The Avatar of Rage smirks. It's little banter like this that reminds him he and Gamzee do actually have a similar approach to life despite their differences in demeanor, and keeps him from regretting taking on an apprentice.
"That's the spirit," Strazio echoes.

Okay, so a juggalo, a suicide bomber, and a plant walk into a bar, except that bar is actually a registration terminal for Dante's Abyss.
