NEVER HAVE I THOUGHT THAT I WOULD BE CAPABLE OF HATING ANYONE MORE THAN THE PERSON THAT I HATE MOST.
TO BE ABLE TO DO SO REQUIRES DELVING DEEP INSIDE AND REACHING A BRAND NEW TIER OF HATE.
IT IS A HATE SO RANCOROUS THAT EVEN I CAN'T COMPLETELY FATHOM IT.
THESE SHITSTAINS THAT CONTINUOUSLY REMIND ME THAT I REALLY HAD IT EASY DEALING WITH TWELVE SHITTY, UNCOOPERATIVE TROLLS JUST HAVE TAKEN MY LAST NERVE AND HAVE SPLINTERED IT, SCATTERING THE REMAINS ACROSS THE VAST REACHES OF PARADOX SPACE.
YOU THINK YOU CAN FUCK WITH MY THINKPAN AND THEN SMOOTH IT OVER BY RETURNING WHAT'S RIGHTFULLY FUCKING MINE?
YOU'RE
MOTHERFUCKING
WRONG.
BE LUCKY I CAN'T REACH YOU, BECAUSE I SWEAR THAT I WOULD TAKE THIS SICKLE AND EVISCERATE EVERY LAST FUCKING ONE OF YOU.

[He opens his mouth to speak, but he finds there are no words. The troll advances and places both hands upon Karkat's shoulders. There is a moment of silence a small pause in his movements before he pulls the younger troll into an embrace. Sure he might squirm or turn away, after all hugging wasn't really something trolls did. But hey Signless wasn't like other trolls.]

Apology accepted, Karkat.

[papshooshing]

[ Karkat tenses... then gives a few pats.

which eventually turns into a hug. 8V

what do. ]

[iron_infidel]

[He continues to keep the troll within his embrace.]

Shooosh its okay, Karkat.

[papshooshing]

..I'm not crying or anything yet, you know.

[iron_infidel]

[He has to laugh at that.]

No, you are not. So you are to say I cannot offer coos of comfort?

[papshooshing]

...Do you have to say "coos?"

[iron_infidel]

Yes.

[papshooshing]

That is the very definition of human gay.

[iron_infidel]

[Wait what?]

Gay? Can you clarify please?

[papshooshing]

...Gay as in homosexual.

[ he's learned so much, papa Sign. SO MUCH. ]

[iron_infidel]

[And he knows nothing.]

I still do not understand.

[papshooshing]

Humans actually have a term for their same sex relations...

For some reason or another, it also works as a slur.

[iron_infidel]

[...What?]

That...is odd. Why classify something so pointless?

[papshooshing]

Don't ask me. Humans are weird things.

[iron_infidel]

You seem to know a great deal information about them, Karkat. I wish to learn more, but the books within the library only can provide so much information.

[papshooshing]

I know as little or as much as I do because some of my friends are human.

[iron_infidel]

Ah yes. I was fortunate to meet some humans they aren't all to pleasant at first, though I can see friends a possibility with time and patience. There would need to be an understanding from both sides. Never would think you were the type, Karkat.

[He chuckles.]

[papshooshing]

[ flatest stare yet. ]

...John, Dave, Rose, and Jade are all involved with the game session. In fact, our sessions and their success are terminally linked. How the fuck could I not try to bridge some foreign gap?

[iron_infidel]

[Your sass is ignored Karkat.]

Ah, yes Dave and Jade. I have met them. Dave was...definitely something and rude, just rude.

I am glad to hear that you are willing to improvise when faced with an alien species.

[papshooshing]

Dave's just... I mean yeah he's ruder than fuck, but it's because he has crippling insecurity issues.

[iron_infidel]

Yes, useful knowledge to know about. Perhaps I will see him in a different light when once again we meet.

[papshooshing]

...You saw me in a different light.

[iron_infidel]

[He pauses for a moment and smiles.]

That I did and what a bright light it was.

[Softly he places a hand on Karkat's shoulder.]

[papshooshing]

[ Karkat's cheeks do color a little, if only because HOW DO YOU TAKE PRAISE. ]

Okay, okay. Heart felt moments aside...

What's eating you. Or was.

[iron_infidel]

[The question causes him to look away for a moment. Quickly he sets his gaze back on Karkat and smiles.]

Eating me? Karkat I assure you I have nothing devouring upon my being currently.
