ok here I go!!!

the first few panels are incredibly sloppy and I apologize.

A young Alternian conqueror is hit on the battlefield. Injury is common, and death even more so. Thankfully, while painful, whatever hit the soldier isn't quite enough to break his armor; he fares better than some of his fellow trolls. His FAUX CARAPACE does well to protect him.

The soldier falls back, shouting for his comrades to mind their business and cover him. They respond irritably. He's sorry, he swears this is the last fucking time, and he swears someday, it'll be their ass and he'll be the hero.

They don't have the time or mind to argue with him.

But today isn't and wasn't that day.

The injury isn't serious, and his allies are well aware of this fact. Regardless, this soldier had to fall back, and this isn't his first time doing this. If only his skin could be made of some kind of incredible titanium stronger than his insecurity or paranoia. He may as well be culled on principle of this predictable behavior. But somehow, he still survives.

Unfortunately, he can't risk the alternative.

It just so happens that today, the 16th bilunar perigee of the 9th dark season's equinox, is the day of this troll's larval awakening, also known as his wriggling day. This day never mattered, and it matters especially less today.

Sometimes, though he'd never admit it for fear of having an embarrassment aneurysm, he wishes he would die on those fucking battlefields since he can't afford to pull his own weight. But he knows that's theatrical over-worked nonsense; this maturing troll still has hope, fiercely in his bloody clutches. The odds of his survival grow more slim with every day he matures, but his hope and desire to live both somehow remain.

Do you recall the name of this troll?

Your name is KARKAT VANTAS. Just Karkat Vantas. And for the record, you are and have been doing fucking terribly since the day you had the misfortune of hatching. Thanks for asking.

Today is a MONUMENTALLY DISGUSTING DAY you wish you could cleanse from your hideous memory retention sponge so you wouldn't have the displeasure of acknowledging it. Despite the gravity of this terrible day, it barely weighs as significant enough to be worth mentioning. It is an anniversary, if anything, to lament the faults of your existence, of which there are assuredly plenty.

Equally plenty, and somewhat related to that topic, are your INTERESTS. You still have a passion for RIDICULOUSLY TERRIBLE ROMANTIC MOVIES AND ROMCOMS. You STILL should really be EMBARRASSED for liking this DREADFUL CINEMA, but for some reason you still are not. You still like to program computers, but you are still NOTORIOUSLY PRETTY AWFUL AT IT. In fact, you haven't TRULY GOTTEN ANY BETTER. Your programs still invariably damage the machines on which they are executed, which is just as well, since you still like to believe you specialize in COMPUTER VIRUSES. You've matured, and you still aspire to join the ranks of the most lethal members of your society, THE THRESHECUTIONERS. And yet, here you are: a foot soldier. That you were drafted without POST-EXAM CULLING for your inadequacies is a fucking miracle. Except not at all, because it was a complicated ordeal you had to orchestrate yourself with the help of a friend. In the near future, you will DO THIS AGAIN.

Unfortunately, your hideous HEMOCASTE MUTATION has prevented you from easily climbing the ranks to your desired position, but you are still trying. As you've grown, it's become INCREASINGLY DIFFICULT TO HIDE YOUR SECRET and thus SURVIVE. You were incredibly naïve to believe you could make it as a Treshecutioner by now. Today, you're an ADULT TROLL. Today, by standard of troll society, you've OFFICIALLY MATURED. This means a lot of terrible things, but ultimately, it means in the figurative eyes of your FROTHING DIPSHIT OF A PAST 6 SWEEP KARKAT, you are A FUCKING FAILURE.

Somehow, you still like to chat it up with some of your other troll pals, most of which who still drive you BATSHIT UP THE FUCKING BELFRY. You don't talk to everyone, though; you've lost touch with a lot of your idiot chums, but they gossip enough for you to get a glimpse into a badly drawn full picture. Your trolltag is still carcinoGeneticist and you still speak in a manner that STILL BELIES YOU AS A COMPLETE FUCKING DOUCHEBAG ALMOST EXCLUSIVELY AT ALMOST ALL TIMES.

This is real life, and it's not a fucking game.

You are a grown man, which is way harder than being a kid and growing up.

All of your childish dreams are retconned today. All of your furious ambition is put to a nervous halt. Your life, at this moment, is on a terrifying, hazy stand-still. It hits you all at once as you sit and bleed in your assigned JOINT RESPITE BLOCK, and later, you will surely be reprimanded for falling back so early.

You don't want to think about it.

What will you do?

That is the stupidest fucking thing you can recall thinking in a really long time, and you hate yourself a little more for it. Your ROMCOM posters hardly deserve such a fate! Besides, even though it's a big mess right now, the bleeding seems to have stopped.

You return back to your HUSKTOP and restore your chump's window. You are patched up, but the bad news is that the wound is bleeding again. Thankfully, it is only letting with a lazy fury. You can just keep an eye on it, you suppose. The good news is that you also decided to put on a pair of pants.

I, for one, am enjoying Sollux in this adventure, and I think the vulnerable/dangerous friendship he has with Karkat is really interesting. Sollux is literally saving Karkat's life, but Karkat can do absolutely nothing in return. I think that if I wasn't a Homestuck fan but was reading this with no knowledge of the two, I would still, by reading their pesterlog, be able to tell that they've known each other for years and have a lot of history. ANYWAY. Sollux is a cool dude, and you wouldn't hear me complaining about his presence in fan adventures, especially in this one.
Also, as an unrelated side note, I'm really pleased with the frequent updates and obviously thought out plot and setting! You're obviously a really talented artist, and the pesterlogs so far have been super duper in character.

um...? no? AHAHA I actually just had a weird dream that everyone was grownups, looked like tron, and Karkat was a yellowblood. I've been talking about doing this adventure for a couple of weeks, and I think I posted some of my AU conceptual things before/right around when sA's painting was posted. besides, I could never hope to match that caliber in any way. *q*

That's ridiculous. You're fine. You're totally fine. You can do this. You can talk to her. You can deal with it. She bugs you all the time. So what if you're currently stressed out of your chitinous cranial confines? So what if you're having a life threatening crisis?? So what????????

Your keyboard looks a little fucked up. Keys are crooked and some of them are missing. Both Sollux and Terezi are still talking to you. You take a deep breath and try to simmer down a little. If only you had better control over your anger.

Okay. You're faced with a conflict of interest. And by conflict of interest you mostly mean a conflict of contempt. Is it going to be Sollux or Terezi?

You'd think! But that's not quite the problem. After all, Karkat could have befriended a vermillionblood with that MO in mind--it's really more like screenings and tests and physical exams that would get him in trouble. The reason why his uniform is mustard and etc is because he's in the system as a yellowblood, for example.

first of all, thank you guys for your kind words!! I don't want to go through the thread and individually respond to them because I don't want to clutter the thread too much (with my responses specifically; by all means, you guys can go as crazy as you want), but I want you to know I do appreciate them a lot. I saw some of the responses on my phone while I was at work and your collective excitement made me happy enough to get through the shift, haha. <333

also, I thought I might give a heads up about Me In General: I work full time and only have a few hours to actually work on this a day. if I have the off (like when I first started this adventure and updated ten million times in a sitting), updates will be more plentiful. otherwise, I will probably only update once a day because of STUPID OBLIGATIONS.

You are now SOLLUX CAPTOR.

As already implied by the former conversations, you are still unsurprisingly apeshit bananas at computers, and you still know ALL THE CODES. All of them. You have learned every new code that's been made now since you were 6 to ensure your OMNIHACKING LEETCRED. You are the unchallenged authority on MAINFRAME NETWORKING and ARMADA DESIGNATION PROGRAMMING. And though all your friends still recognize your unparalleled achievements as a TOTALLY SICK HACKER and your superiors value you as an IRREPLACEABLE GENIUS, you feel like you could be better. It's still one of a number of things you still SORT OF BEAT YOURSELF UP ABOUT for NO VERY GOOD REASON during sporadic and debilitating BIPOLAR MOOD SWINGS, which you STILL HAVE TO DEAL WITH EVERY SHRIEKING SECOND OF GOD'S MISTAKE KNOWN AS YOUR EXISTENCE. You still have a penchant for BIFURCATION, in logic and in life. Your mutant mind is still hounded by the psychic screams of the IMMINENTLY DECEASED. Your visions foretell the deaths of your comrades and kin by the fleetful, and yet unlike the typical sightless prophet of doom, you are still gifted with VISION TWOFOLD.

For now.

A little less than a week ago, you agreed to a COMPLETELY INSANE plan suggested by your COMPLETELY INSANE FRIEND. In hindsight, you CAN'T REALLY BELIEVE YOU'RE GOING TO DO THIS, and the daunting prospect looming over your shoulder is a little HORRIFYING. In fact, you DON'T REALLY UNDERSTAND YOURSELF. But you've bailed him out before and done equally CRAZY SHIT which turned out okay. If it entails the salvation of your BEGRUDGINGLY ADMITTED good friend, you guess you're okay with that. Your trolltag is obviously still twinArmageddons and you 2till tend two 2peak wiith a biit of a lii2p two no one2 2urprii2e.

You've just been released from your duties and you are feeling listless.

What will you do?

You consider that, and for some reason, some HUGEHORNED WOOBIE irrationally comes to mind. What the hell, you guys aren't even really friends. Well, you are, but you aren't close. You don't really talk. The last time you talked to him was probably before you checked on Karkat and embarked on your IDIOT MISSION.

And even then, it was really more for a FRIEND'S CONCERN rather than your own, if you can even label your abstract relationship in such a way. And the concern was definitely understandable. Not everyone survives THE GREAT BROOD.

OK THIS POST DOES HAVE TWO PARTS but it's 5:30am so I am going to sleep. The second part will be up tomorrow; prompts between this post and the next will probably be unused, so save them! Unless you just want to make hilar suggestions just cuz, then by all means, troll away.

All of this running around and forcing yourself to GIVE A SHIT is frankly rather exhausting. It's not that you want anyone to die, but this isn't exactly something you're known to do. It's almost as if you took the place of a particular ICEQUEEN MCBITCHFANGS as TOP MEDDLER. Her long discarded FUSSY TIARA metaphorically sits snuggly around your horns. You do not like it.

Alas, in this case, IT IS THE LEAST YOU CAN DO. You probably should check on TAVROS NITRAM. He's in a situation that's similarly sticky as Karkat's is and faces threat of culling. And, like Karkat, it's a miracle he saved himself from getting culled before he made it into the exam screenings.

On the other hand, it's NOT REALLY YOUR PROBLEM. Neither is Karkat's, but that's different.

An eerie creak of metal resounds through the hall in which you currently stand. This is followed by a metalic groan, titanium straining, and the lights down the hall flicker out in a shower of sparks.

You are now enshrouded in darkness.

This is your cue to MAKE IT YOUR PROBLEM. Despite the threat, you only feel MILDLY ANNOYED.

You resolve to retreat to your PRIVATE RESPITE QUARTERS and troll Tavros Nitram.

I don't know about that!
but obviously, you're free to keep solid on your own headcanon, because this is just my interpretation; I'm not looking to refute it or anything!

if it's any consolation, Tavros gets to win in a big way later on. I do agree that some good rompin' is the least of what Tavros deserves after everything he's gone for, but I think what he ends up getting is a lot more important than sexuality and its given nuances. :>

My defence of that is
1.) Aradia got the metal skirt/possibly entire dress
2.) if you were Hussie would you make a completly different sprite or just recolor the pants?

I mean Equius gives pants to his robots so why not people with robot parts?

but ill stop arguing now

>> No. 1775
>>1766
LMFAO AGH IM DYING

>>1769
LOL IT'S COOL and that's a good defense to defend your headcanon! but I don't know, Hussie's redrawn sprites plenty of times. I think he probably just didn't think about whether or not Tavros gets to keep his dick, frankly; I'm just going by what I see haha. removing all of my bias for Tavros as a character, I just think it makes the most sense.
>> No. 1776
I understand where you're coming from, and I have no problems with this fanventure, but I personally think that there's no way they could have chainsawed Tavros clean in half. He must have just had his legs cut, but then either metal pants were added or a casing needed to be put on to hold the legs to the body or something IDK. It's not cause I'm all LOL HE NEEDS A DICK but WOW WHAT HE SHOULD BE DEAD.

That said, carry on my wayward parfait.
>> No. 1779
>>1776
I thought about that too! like ever since I first saw robolegs. it kinda makes me afraid to know how intimate the workings of his legs really are with his body! it makes me feel like they're a lot more interconnected (Tav's legs and the robolegs) than it even appears. but Hussie doesn't always make a ton of sense with these kinda things himself so it's hard to say or even justify analyzing it so much, fff.

that said, a casing to hold the legs to his body makes sense! and alas, it's too late to go back! cannot retcon. I'll just have to research and justify my horrible and cruel decision.
>> No. 1788
>>1776
>>1779
I agree that Tavros was not cut in half because cutting around the pelvis would mean that his intestines would pretty much spill out, buuuut yeah, it's not really a big deal, and I am more than willing to roll with whatever the cannon of this adventure is. :D Plus the plot regarding Tav and how he's going to avoid getting culled is keeping me in suspense, and there wouldn't be this story line if you took a different stance on his body. Your decision is cruel but exciting! :D

thanks! also, for the record, he's not missing his entire lower half. as he said, just from his hips down, which would still be incredibly damaging to his guts regardless, but not as detrimental as half of his entire torso. I've met half a person (less a person than BR!Tavros), man, but I don't think Tavros survives the same way. either way, it is possible!

also I'm a little conflicted on which prompts to take for this update and I didn't get home until late, so have this shitty INTERMISSION NUMBER TWO. I have Friday and Saturday off, so I hope to do a lot of shit in those times and get a post done for tomorrow.

Equius built a fully functioning circulatory system; I'm pretty sure he could compensate for any organ damage done to Tavros.
>> No. 1793
>>1790
that's kind of what I was going for regarding Tavros's legs being more infused to his body than a mere attachment but aaaa I didn't really think of a way specifically for the two parts to be linked, which, as I mentioned above, I might research a little to figure out how specifically this would be working out (but I don't think it'll ever even really come up in Baserapt).

also wtf, re: Equius's genius--wtf did Equius even make Tavros's legs out of in Homestuck canon?? miracles.

Looking at his legs in Vriska's chest in Alterniabound, it seems his legs were indeed cut off individually. Doesn't matter, though: this is an alternate continuity. Maybe there were complications that required more things be removed. :D

guess I better plot up some stuff.

I did intend from the beginning that both Karkat and Tavros would face danger from the coming brood, and Tavros's dilemma is intended to shed some light on a plot-point. so I was gonna roll with an inability to reproduce but hmm. I mean obviously I still am going to/have to roll with that, but I guess I gotta get into some meatier specifics now! oops.

I guess Vriska got over her terrifying crush on Tavros, then, if he's got nobody in either of the mating quadrants. I thought for sure she'd be in one of them. But then, Karkat was probably right about Tavros' inability to hate.
>> No. 1818
>>1802
Easy-peasy. His genitals could have easily needed be removed for practical reasons regarding the metal case that would go around his lower body, but perhaps in a different scenario, you can say that because the surgery was done in a makeshift manner, he got an infection that rotted off a lot of his flesh (and he miraculously didn't die; I'd call some troll biology bullshit on this one) including genitals and that's why he can't breed.

Tavros's legs don't work, in canon he's basically a paraplegic from a troll-equivalent spinal cord injury. Depending on how and where he's injured, it could indeed affect the nerves and sensitivity of genital function. Quoth wikipedia, impotence, and varying degrees of continence and problems with the bladder/bowel muscles are common.

Realistically, chainsawing off Tavros's legs would just be the beginning. Some degree of internal work to interface with/replace/augment the nervous tissue would be necessary. Going in from the legs up to the spinal nerves, etc.

So depending on how this particular Tavros's injury happened, and what his robot prosthesis is, and how well it works...you've still got wiggle room.

Tavros's junk didn't work right/well/at all after his accident, he wasn't all that interested/cared much before hand (Tavros as asexual is pretty easy to buy), and trolls don't got replacement bone bulge technology...

It all works out.

Goddamn my question would not fit on Formspring, so I hope you don't mind me leaving this here:

How did Karkat grow/change in the offscreen time you aged him up? I know BR isn't running long enough to see the other parts of his personality, and given that you can't say he's only REAG just yet (Altough it seems that way)- but specifically, I want to know if he finally ditched the whole IMPOTENT BRAVADO and PETTY ANTAGONISM thing (Ala that last Jade log), or is it still sorta there? How has me matured, or regressed? Or is he sill the same- and why? I'd like to hear your take on him after all those off-screen sweeps. (I am obsessed with characterization and I have a total boner for analytical jargon likesakhfhaskdfsforgiveme)

LOL no worries notAnon!! it is interesting and a lot of stuff that came up was valid, it's cool! I just wasn't anticipating to get such an uproarious reaction from people, it's cool! I didn't think you were trying to impose that I change anything for a second, ftr.

>>1859
IT'S OK MAN, I LOVE ANALYTICAL JARGON. Why are you even apologizing, that is silly. You are silly. This kind of thing will from now on go in the /gen/ thread that Katie made, but I'll answer this here since it went up before the thread did!!

Karkat has both grown and regressed. He still has a ton of IMPOTENT BRAVADO and PETTY ANTAGONISM, but the latter is a lot more subdued; he mostly just kind of holds capslocked grudges but acts a lot less on contrary stupidity (for example, regarding Hivebent canon: compiling THO2E FUCKIING FIILE2).

In the ways he's matured, he buries his emotions a little less in his angry hyperbole. He still does it a lot as an insecure reflex, and he's doubly insecure now that he's actually entered the fucked up empire of troll society, but this is probably more deflective to strangers; to those who've known him since he was a kid on Alternia, he might be a little less frothy under the right circumstances.

As for how he's regressed, his fear has replaced a lot of his ambition he had as a child, and he calls that former aspiration something of a defect of his past self's dipshit naitivity because little Karkat had no idea how hard being an adult was going to be. He thought he knew, but he really didn't. He's also too insecure about his caste to really get seriously involved in any relationships, at the risk of his genetic material making a freakish showcase of his mutation.

He also saddles a lot of guilt for relying on his friends so much, particularly Sollux. His thrive to become a hero is still there, but he's having trouble placing in what way he intends to go in that regard: a hero in the eyes of troll society as a bloodthirsty killing machine without fear or remorse, similar to how he felt as a child? Or a hero in that he gets over his fears enough to man up and pay his friends back? Terezi is gunning for him to grow into the latter and she's been encouraging him in his own way, which we might see a bit of. Ultimately and presently, Karkat wants to outdo his friends in tipping the FAVOR SCALE, mostly so that he doesn't have to feel like he owes them any damn thing. This may be subject to change! It depends on the story's evolution.

I hope that was satisfactory. ' u '

That actually isn't a bad idea. You've already done some work on that, but you could have done better. You could have done more. You could always do better on account of you are KIND OF A USELESS SACK OF SHIT.

You definitely weren't kidding about the FREAKBRAIN MIGRAINE. You are never kidding about those migraines. Never.

This is all starting to STRESS YOU OUT a little, which doesn't help the problem of your splitting head. You're pretty good at keeping your cool like you're a refrigerator full of ice inside a freezer, but that's only until you FLIP THE FUCK OUT. You like to think you're more STABLE than you used to be. You've been WORKING ON IT. It's a PERSONAL ISSUE that's really none of anyone's fucking business, so you'd prefer it if we BACKED THE FUCK UP OFF THE CLIFFSIDE OF A VOLCANO.

You have no idea what to do about Tavros. There's nothing you can do. You can barely keep Karkat alive. And what an UNGRATEFUL ASSHOLE he is sometimes! He can just go and SAVE HIS OWN HUSK. The fact that you're always keeping him alive is ENABLING him, coaxing him to your SAFETY SHOULDER. You should have listened to Terezi. She's always right. You should have listened to her. But you CAN'T STOP YOURSELF. You'd never admit it, but you're TOO AFRAID that the ONE TIME you don't try to save is ass, it'll really be the end and you'll be the worst friend ever.

In fact, you already ARE THE WORST FRIEND EVER. How could you even think about abandoning Karkat? Saving his ass is the least you can do to make up for what a fucking horrible HORRORTERROR SHITMONGER of a freak you are. You're always FREAKING OUT ON HIM.

Additionally, you AREN'T SURE YOU REALLY HAVE THE GLOBES TO PULL OFF THIS OPERATION. Your earnest desperation had you ACT TOO QUICKLY.

The pressure is immense. You are scared. You are irritated. You are far too many things at once.

A voice reassures you.

It will be fine, it says.

You resolve to do just that. Hacking into the system undetected is something more than even simple. You go over the respective DOSSIERS in the SYSTEM INVENTORY. You've appropriately altered them already.

In the past several days, you've studied each form as needed. You've formulated with your ACCOMPLICES. You think you have A PRETTY STEADY PLAN.

There's still the issue of securing a CRUISER CRAFT to yourself and Karkat. A cruiser is theoretically ideal for its size, but actually getting to the cruiser without rousing suspicion is tricky.

Wait, they aren't. Actually, your kismesis would probably be able to assist you, but like fuck if they would want to. Besides, it would only rouse suspicion--more than you have already, anyway. You have to be as independent in this operation as you can afford.

Contacting your ROMANTIC PARTNERS is a little daunting, if a little pointless. There's a heavy guilt that twists and coils in the pit of your gut, but you've already come to terms with it. You can't tell them WHAT YOU'RE UP TO with the risk of being found out. As a result, despite the short notice, you've been encouraging them at last minute to FIND SOMEONE ELSE. If all else fails, you've even suggested the PAIL EACH OTHER OUT. thank you anon way early into this adventure for inventing this term. I lol'd heartily.

The things you do for friendship. You still wonder a little bit about WHAT IN THE FUCK YOU ARE DOING, but you don't want to tread in that darkness for too long, lest you FREAK THE FUCK OUT again.

This is all very stressful for you.

It's nothing too unusual. Her profile, like the profiles of many other trolls, goes on for pages more even yet--there is classified information you are also privvy to. It feels a little invasive and not your place, but you have no choice.

The red text entails Terezi's title as CHIEF COMMANDER OF THE DISCIPLINATRIX, specializing in INTERRORGATIONS. Her profile first reads her age and the general rundown of the empire's thoughts. Additionally, she is still studying to join the ranks of the LEGISLACERATORS. She seems to be a valuable asset.

If not a tricky one.

There have been reports about her dangerous cunning, but you know that she is too cunning for anyone to believe that. You also know who's responsible for these multiple reports. We all know. Everyone.

Her cunning and EXPERTISE WITH PULLING COLONY-SPREAD STRINGS is exactly why she must remain at base while you and Karkat retreat. You've even located an ideal planet, hopefully far from the VICIOUS SCOUTING of the IMPERIAL DRONES. Either way, you're certain they won't think to look.

As everyone knows, your LIFE SUCKS AND IT IS HARD. Mostly, you manage to DEAL WITH THIS. But right now, you are having a hard time DEALING WITH IT. It'll pass and you guess you'll be okay, but you're presently a little freaked out about your maybe looming death and Karkat's also maybe looming death, as well as the fates of those involved in rescuing him. It's HEROIC and you ADMIRE THAT, but it also kind of SCARES YOU. You are just FUCKING SCARED.

Still, it's hard keeping up your various INNER PILLARS of SELF ESTEEM and WHATEVER SUPPORTS YOU FROM SPIRALING INTO AN ENDLESS ABYSS OF DESPAIR, especially lately. Despite Sollux's assurance, you remain afraid. His cryptic words are hard to believe and sometimes you think he is a little crazy and kind of a jerk (even if mostly well intended and um, stuff, you're sure).

The fact of the matter is that sometimes, you still need a little help. You're just that upset, and you don't particularly want to call anymore attention to yourself than necessary.

Hey, Tavros, why the long face? Oh, the Great Brood? Oh, you're going to get culled? Why's that?

You don't think needing SUPPORT in hard times is necessarily STRANGE OF ANYONE, but it's probably a little weird that you prefer most to go into the RECESSES OF YOUR COLORFUL IMAGINATION whenever you HIT ROCK BOTTOM.

Yes, even still.

But only sometimes, because you are SELDOM THIS DOWNTRODDEN. You're a lot less reliant on your imaginary friend (if that's even accurate anymore) than when you were 6, and you don't mention him. Mostly, you tried to believe in his fakeness rather than the VERY REAL AFFECTS HE HAD ON YOU and boldly declared his stupid fakey fake make believe existence in the face of those who MOCKED YOU. Now, you just pretend YOU DON'T BELIEVE IN HIM, THINK ABOUT HIM OR NEED HIM.

But you think about him every now and then, and your IMAGINATION's since altered him. You get more and more pumped every time you think about him. You're feeling better already! You deserved this. Dang he is so cool.

You are now POISON PARFAIT, also known as the AUTHOR OF BASERAPT. You probably shouldn't be awake, because you are A LITTLE SICK. You are made of RESPONSIBLE DECISIONS.

You are sitting on your bed with your TABLET on your lap, as you have no DESK. Your laptop is a failing piece of shit and you went to bed at 8am and got up at noon. To reiterate for stern clarification, you are made of GOOD DECISIONS and you are also a RESPONSIBLE ADULT, which is why you are drawing this fan adventure instead of doing everything you need to be doing like RENEWING YOUR STATE IDENTIFICATION SO YOU CAN LEGALLY DRINK BEER and also BOARD PLANES, both of which are HIGHLY RELEVANT TO YOUR INTERESTS.

You aren't sure why the spotlight has suddenly shifted onto you for an obligatory SELF INDULGENT ADVENTURE SELF INSERT and you feel a little SELF CONSCIOUS because you look like a HOBO IN A WIZARD'S ROBE. You totally weren't prepared for this. You look and feel like death. You also are vaguely aware that you are responsible for the spotlight being on yourself, which is some kind of weird abstract TRANS-META you don't want to get into.

Oh, an introduction gimmick for TAVROS.

While you appreciate your reader's enthusiasm, you feel the need to MAKE A NOTE that you don't want to EXHAUST THAT ROUTINE. There are a lot of characters to introduce and YOU WEREN'T REALLY SURE WHAT THE HELL TAVROS WAS DOING WITH HIS STATUS until like three days ago, after you already posted his introduction because you COULDN'T PUT OFF THE UPDATE ANY LONGER, and Tavros was due to appear with certainty. For this, you are sorry, but you promise to reveal that information LATER IN THE STORY when it is appropriate. You hope it suffices to explain that Tavros still has all his same INTERESTS, and if there are further questions, you created your formspring just in case you HAPPENED TO FUCK UP IN A MANNER SIMILAR TO THIS (or were dragging ass too hard).

Well okay.

You are now TAVROS NITRAM once again.

Revisiting your comforting and silly habits, you find yourself wondering what Rufio would do in this situation besides be a total badass and pinnacle of TROLL MANLINESS. You wonder what it would be like to CONSULT RUFIO for advice for such a heavy subject, but you decide that might be tricky. For one thing, you don't know if Rufio, as an extension of you, still has his genitals, so you aren't sure he would understand, but maybe he would, because he's you, but then, he probably couldn't tell you anything useful. It's a weird thing to think about. Your brain is becoming an uncomfortable place fast. Quick do something else.

You decide to do something else. Something else that doesn't involve DWELLING ON THE STATE OF RUFIO'S PELVIC REGIONS. You scoot up to your desk on your GRUBSTOOL, thus accessing your HUSKTOP. You open TROLLIAN and decide to troll someone real, someone with a personality, like a JUGGALO.

Gamzee gives pretty much the SHITTIEST ADVICE EVER, so you aren't going to ask for that. His company tends to assuage your wounds.

>Tavros: Given how shitty the conversation with your "best bro" went, ponder your relationships with your troll friends and decide who you can talk to about your emotional troubles.

You wouldn't say your conversation with your best bro went SO shittily, actually; you weren't looking to tell him about what was happening. You want to try to stay on the DOWN LOW, but it's hard keeping such a big thing a secret. You were more worried about his well being, and talking to him has adequately lifted your moods.

You're not sure if you could afford to talk to anyone about your emotional trouble. Honestly, you're not sure who would care. Besides Gamzee. And you aren't sure you want to disclose it. You don't want people STRESSING USELESSLY and FLIPPING THE FUCK OUT about your situation.

But maybe you can talk to someone all the same; the distraction would be nice, certainly… You have some time to kill before YOUR SHIFT, and maybe you can DO SOMETHING USEFUL with that time.

There's a handful of people you can talk to. Some of them are OFFLINE. A few names come to mind. These are people you ACTUALLY TALK TO, save for ONE PERSON. You know lots of other people but they aren't exactly people you'd like to get in touch with.

Strangely, your MOST CURRENT CONTACTS are people you MET AND BEFRIENDED ON ALTERNIA. Perhaps it's nostalgia that rules you, but you find comfort in these connections with OLD ACQUAINTANCES.

You don't talk to KANAYA MARYAM a lot. She doesn't talk to anyone a lot, you don't think. You two talk sometimes, because you suppose you have an AWKWARD BOND OF SORTS, but your AWKWARD BOND is, unsurprisingly, kind of AWKWARD. Talking to her is a little UNCOMFORTABLE and she isn't much of someone you can exactly SHOOT THE BREEZE WITH. She also kind of INTIMIDATES YOU with all of her SUCCESS and ICINESS. Boy it sure is pretty crazy you knew this girl since you had your legs because she sure is a huge deal.

There's also... Oh god. Right. EQUIUS ZAHHAK.

This guy is incredibly OLD FASHIONED and gives the most esteem crushing not-advice. He's generally is into LORDING HIS CASTE, especially since entering the armada and MAKING HIMSELF A NAME. You don't care too much about CASTE CLASS, but his attitude's a little OFFENSIVE regardless. There's also the fact that you do kind of owe him--your highly functional and structurally sound AMBULATORY LIMBS are a product of his mysterious and twisted genius mind. You literally owe Equius for COUNTLESS UPGRADES and thus IMPROVING THE QUALITY OF YOUR LIFE. His understanding of biorobotics is always expanding and he almost treats you as a PERSONAL PROJECT.

This sort of CREEPS YOU OUT, but hey, it's free maintenance on very sophisticated machinery that makes your life so much easier.

Despite all this, you suppose you actually GET ALONG OKAY. It's just incredibly UNCOMFORTABLE talking to him when you don't ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO.

Okay, well, there's NEPETA LEIJON to be considered as well. You actually still talk on a semi regular basis, whenever time allows. Even though you're both A LITTLE TOO OLD for it, you still ROLEPLAY SAFELY. She's also nice UNEXPECTEDLY GROUNDING in the face of SERIOUS ISSUES. You think that people tend to UNDERESTIMATE her intelligence because of how silly she is, but SHE GIVES YOU THE BEST ADVICE. You like her. She is nice and EMOTIONALLY INTELLIGENT, unlike your GREAT MANY OF ACQUAINTANCES.

Okay, so TEREZI PYROPE. Your relationship is KIND OF HARD TO DESCRIBE. You don't TALK OFTEN but she seems to like to CHECK UP ON YOU. Sollux is similar in this way. You like her more than you like Sollux or Karkat, because when she does shit that is KIND OF MEAN, it's usually OUT OF AFFECTION. At least in your case. Her INSANE CLEVERNESS actually kind of spooks you. Terezi is spooky. But you guess she's also quirky and nice in her own weirdass way.

Talking to her mostly CONFUSES YOU. You figure this is actually JUST AS PLANNED.

hile you're always up for talking to NICE PEOPLE, sometimes it's pertinent for you to put aside PERSONAL DESIRE in favor of BEING A MAN and doing brave shit like talking to people YOU DON'T REALLY LIKE out of necessity. People such as KARKAT VANTAS.

You have never really gotten along with Karkat. You don't dislike him, but you also don't like him very much. Still, what Sollux has mentioned has you pretty WORRIED and admittably A LITTLE CURIOUS.

You wonder just what Karkat's deal is. He has no partners, but he's going to be fine? You wonder if he managed to find some last minute partners to fake the ritual. But more importantly than that you're not sure why Karkat's going to be okay. You wonder if the stress of THE GREAT BROOD is making Sollux KIND OF LOSE HIS FUCKING MIND and go into denial. You'll be okay, Karkat'll be okay.

Anyway, you're not sure if Karkat's away from his computer or not, but trying couldn't hurt.

Well, even if it ended a little terribly, that wasn't a completely useless conversation. You still have QUESTIONS, but the DISCIPLINATRIX'S DISSENTION RADARSQUAD has many eyes and no log is really safe UNLESS SCREENED. Which you probably aren't even aware of and if you were you wouldn't know how to do that at all. Gosh. Still, whatever Karkat's up to, it's serious if he can't go into detail under the eyes of AUTHORITY and it's probably better that you drop it for now. You wonder what Karkat's going to try to do for you specifically, and mostly, you feel whatever he comes up with be futile.

Regardless, a part of you feels kind of strangely reassured by his concern, despite all the flaming invective. Nothing's changed, but somehow, you feel just a little bit better.

>Tavros: Troll Nepeta for advice.

Odds are if anything could be gained by talking to Equius, she'll know about it and can pass it along instead of needing to talk to Equius directly which would be STRONG AWKWARD.

Hey, I couldn't help but wonder, are you going to show any of the non-main trolls? Like their kismesises and matesprites, superiors, other friends, or their superiors?

Just a thought. I keep imagining some great (hilarious) relationship combinations, like Nepeta with a mild-mannered, professional soldier-type or something.

you should ask on my formspring! I will answer here but for future reference, that is the place to go. :>
I actually have been asked this a lot and the more I am asked the more I am tempted, but I don't want this to become a case of gb2/oc/; if they make any kind of appearance, chances are that they're going to be incredibly brief cameos. Or maybe I can fashion up some separate meta profiles to satisfy people's curiosity without actually including the characters in Baserapt's actual telling?

IDK AAAAAA

OH GOD OKAY THAT'S RIGHT, YOU HAVE A FUCKING SHIFT TO CATCH OK and for the record your commander isn't someone you've known since you were six. You're a pilot and right now you have work to do and you're going to go do it and it won't be very interesting.

So you are now a cockroach somewhere on THE SHIP, within which resides to our knowledge insofar: Karkat, Sollux, Terezi and Tavros. But you don't know who any of those assholes are. Fuck man, you're a cockroach. Shit. You don't give a fuck.

Today is just a fuckin' day in the life. You have jackshit to do with the brood. You mate whenever you want and have ALL THE BABIES. Yes, all of them. Obviously.

Being a cockroach is actually pretty gangsta. You think your species gets a BAD REP, or you would if you were actually SENTIENT ENOUGH TO THINK SO. Mostly you are a dumb piece of shit. That considered and aside, you're feeling antsy. Or perhaps cocky.

What will you do?
