Okay but listen.

What if when someone got to the dream bubbles, they were blind for a few days.

They'd just died and their eyes turned white. Makes sense to me. Right?

Okay so what if... Karkat. He dies. He goes to the bubbles and is terrified because he can't see shit.

He stumbles, nearly falls, before a pair of big, strong arms catch him.

"Easy motherfucker, I got ya." He hears. His heart pounds.

"Gamzee?"

"Close enough."

He's carefully sat down, he hears someone sit beside him.

"Call me Grand. You're Sufferer's lil one, ain't ya?"

"Yeah... Are you Gamzee's ancestor?"

"Yeup."

"I can't see."

"That's normal. It'll come back in a day or two."

"Where are we?"

"My bubble. Dunno how you got here, but I made this one myself."

"Is Signless here?"

"Nah. He's in a bigger bubble. It's just me here."

"Just you?"

"Yeup."

He stays with GHB until his eyesight returns. It takes two or three days. By then, they've gotten comfortable with each other. Grand reveals that after he'd gotten to the bubbles, he'd admittedly run away, unwilling to face the other ancestors.

He finally did, though, and apologized for, ya know, slaughter. They forgave him. They're been dead long enough to come to terms with it. He still needed time alone, so he went back to his personal bubble. He made it look like his home on Alternia. He'd been there, all alone, for who knows how long.

Then suddenly this little cherry motherfucker pops in and sticks around. They talk about their ancestors/decendants, share stories from when they were alive.

Karkat gets his vision back, but he starts having nightmares. True, they don't need sleep, but he's making up for all the time insomnia robbed him of. He comes crying to Grand, visably shaken.

Grand doesn't know what to do, so he just holds him and pats him and shooshes him. It's enough, though. Karkat passes out against him, and Grand realizes he is painfully pale for this lil loudmouth, who barely even reaches Grand's stomach.

He takes him back to his bed and tucks him in, then sits beside him until he wakes up, to make sure he's okay.

Random Thoughts About Birchbow's "The Price of Forgiveness"

I think what draws me in about The Price of Forgiveness that HIC and GHB seem more responsible than most versions? They are still horrible, but HIC and GHB seems to have more of a vested interest in a united, functional Empire. That is, HIC cares about a united society. (GHB cares mostly about his religion and his faithful, and killing heretics. HIC cares about aiming GHB where his murderous tendencies will be useful for the empire.)

Another thing I like about this GHB and this HIC is that they are apparently deeply fucked up by what they did to the Signless, and the way it shows up in the narrative and the storyline. GHB keeps flashing back to the Signless, and has deeply fucked up thoughts about false child-prophets. HIC makes a few statements indicating that they should have kept him. Both seem to regard the entire situation as a mistake on some level, in some way. (I'm not sure what quadrant it might have been for the Empress, but GHB seems to tend toward the pale.) And that's an interesting take. You don't tend to see HIC or GHB regretful for anything.

Karkat's position as a chief threshecutioner is pretty interesting. On the surface it seems like the plot device/idea that HIC is keeping him around as a form of revenge against the Signless. "Hey, I totally have the Second Signless as my pet attack dog/brainwashed stooge." Except he seems to have agency, and a very detailed idea of How Things Should Be and How Things Are and they do not necessarily go along with the HIC, though he does seem to feel she's an effective empress who is worthy serving. He also feels that she is the Bad Touch Empress when she starts making his life sexually awkward. (His attitude about seems to be more "please don't play with my heart here," and less "I am being pressured into having sex with the Fish Queen, Halp,") though. The Very Clear Idea shows up in the way he interacts with those under his command, and how those threshecutioners under his command in turn interact with others. (And how GHB is low-key disturbed by what he's seeing.)

HIC interactions with Karkat seem to be the same kind of quadrant smearing shenanigans she gets up to with GHB, With an added dollop of "I am literally fucking with you." (pale/pitch with GHB, red/not sure what with Karkat.) At the same time, it's very clear she has some kind of strong feelings for him, and that she cares about him on some level. (Particularly when he almost doesn't make it through his molt, so she decides to take matters into her own hands.)

I am really, really hopeful we find out what the deal is about HIC, GHB and what happened to the Signless. *IS* Karkat's position as a threshecutioner mostly because HIC wanted revenge? Or is it because HIC is trying to make up for what happened to Signless to his Descendant? Are GHB and HIC going to renew the subscription on their issues, or talk about it?

There is so much interesting backstory here, and I'm as strongly intrigued by the little hints of what went down and how it affected GHB and HIC as I am about the current tangle of relationships between GHB/Karkat, HIC/Karkat and Karkat/Gamzee. (And GHB/HIC and GHB/Gamzee/HIC, and Karkat/GHB...)

For your thing, could you do GHB/Karkat, black? You know why ;P Thanks!

don’t you give me that winky face you hooligan how dare you encourage this. >:V

this time it’s less a kiss than both of you trying to bite the other one’s lip first, all clashing teeth and growling and then you’re kissing again and you feel like your insides are boiling.
