Pesterquest: Kartkat Vantas [NO COMMENTARY]

So, Karkat DOES have a living lusus. Well, not anymore after this.
Edit: My bad, his lusus does show up in the comics
Oh shit its the Signless!

spoilers in one of the bad endings he straight-up guts you. honestly that caught me off guard since hes NEVER done anything like that to a person in canon, but when you think about it it makes sense that even karkat had to learn to be violent to survive on alternia

[@Blitz-tk4jh]

like sure he kills the prototyped sburb imps but that barely counts. i dont remember him ever actually hurting someone, like, physically, idk i just didnt expect that to happen

[@Light-ro5bp]

I don’t understand, what did he do after that? It says he hunches over himself, what happened?

[@sergeantmituna6260]

like its bad enough that we were told that his existence was a cullable offense in canon, but the whole routine check thing was fucked up

You know, seeing Karkat in a more natural setting (See: not dealing with the humans or sburb/sgrub) is pretty relaxing. Like Nepeta, this is a side of Karkat I would have appreciated seeing a bit more of in Homestuck proper.

[@genesisfrog]

"there is no way any of us is descended from anyone who did anything important" both a bit of dramatic irony bc we know that the ancestors did do important things on alternia and a jab at the alpha trolls. Nice.

[@Blitz-tk4jh]

in case you couldnt tell he is very high up on my list of favorite characters.

[@mayor3767]

karkat makes me so emo FUCK spoilers like before all else karkat just CARES for people. he wanted to save mc from the sun, he refused to let sollux grt dragged into his own shit, and theres just this underlying feeling of frustration and resignation for alternia's shitty system. he freaks out in gamzee's closet BECAUSE he's a lowblood and gamzee's in the second highest caste. like he talked abt gamzee so affectionately before but as soon as he gets there, he is overcome with crippling fear. if he wasn't a mutant, there is an implication that karkat wouldn't be so reserved with his friends and would be an outwardly affectionate person. karkat just wants to make connections with people and outwardly care for his friend but his own self preservation gets in the way of that and you can see him struggle with that the entire route. ALSO WHATS UP WITH THAT IMPLICATION THAT SOLLUX IS PITCH FOR KARKAT

[@voxicwaste]

Holy fuck this made me feel so bad for Karkat

[@TissueSkittles]

can anyone explain why karkat was scared of Gamzee?

[@chaoticbliss4169]

Well Gamzee is a highblood and highbloods with his blood color are known to be violent and are supposed to kill lowbloods. Maybe Karkat just panicked because he didn't know what Gamzee would assume and do to him and MSPAR since they randomly teleported into his hive without him knowing. He probably thought Gamzee, a highblood, wouldn't take too kindly to Karkat, a lowblood, and MSPAR, who Karkat at that time still probably thought was a blueblood or a jadeblood or was a different species all together which no matter what would still be lower than Gamzee, being in house without his permission, especially since in Alternia you could get instantly killed for that.
