[Oh, here's Michael! For those who may have seen him this month, it seems like his corruption has receded quite a bit. He's lacking those fangs and claws, and he mostly seems kinda withdrawn and sheepish. Honestly, he'd rather not be doing this publicly at all; there's simply too many people he needs to say it to, and he doesn't even know who all of them were.]

Hey. I, um. I just wanted to apologize to everyone I may have chased through the streets with weapons or...otherwise caught in a booby trap...this month. Things got a little bit weird there, for a while...

[He seems sensible of the fact that this is potentially not a great apology, but he also doesn't seem to know where else to go from here? There's a moment or two of awkward silence.]

So, yeah. That's my bad. Let me know if there's, ah...anything I can do, or whatever. Shop's gonna be closed for a couple more days.

HEY MAN. IT'S OKAY. WE ALL GET BLOODTHIRSTY SOMETIMES. ARE YOU OKAY?

(Karkat, no.)

[eudaimonikos]

[Usually he might look askance at that, but...well, Michael was in Deerington for a year. It sure seems like we all do get bloodthirsty sometimes.]

Oh, I'm all right. Didn't really get hurt or anything. I was a little...

[Vague hand gestures because he's still getting used to the concept of corruption as applied to himself!]

But it seems to have passed. [.....] Are you alright? Sorry, I have no idea what blood type you are.

[I know enough to know that this is sort of a Loaded Thing to Say to a Homestuck, but Michael probably doesn't! He's really just thinking about how Warmbloods and Vilebloods were being targeted by basically everyone just now.]

BATSHIT BONKERS?

(Eloquently put, Karkat.)

I AM FINE. IT'S FINE. I PREFER TO KEEP BLOOD TYPES PERSONAL AND EVERYTHING. IT CAN BE A VERY REVEALING QUESTION.

(Karkat just barely restrains himself from dying at the question but only just barely. He's trying to remember most people here are unfamiliar with troll norms. )

[eudaimonikos]

...can it?

[This lines up with none of his experiences in Trench! But whatever, it's not like he needs to know or anything.]

Well. Glad to know you're alright, anyway. I haven't really been keeping up with anyone since I went "batshit bonkers". Didn't even open the shop the past couple weeks... [Oh well, no biggie?]
