karkat is almost as tall as average- okay not realy he's pretty short
he's also almost functionally illiterate due to his upbringing - he can read - - slowly - - but it's difficult
writingwise he knows his letters but spelling is a lost cause - those years with his bro, writing and reading and all that weren't really priorities, and the caracvan ahrper did what he ould but Karkat is easily frustrated and a difficult student for Harper Kankri
note 18: now for something COMPLETELY DIFFERENT, ie, my attempt at figuring out what Karkat used during his session for ectobiology
A= ancestor, D= Descendant
Whip (d) and cue ball shard (a)
Lance (a) and thimble (d)
claws (a) and cat hat (d)
chainsaw (d) and sewing kit (a)
bladecain (d) and red glasses (a)
eightball (d) and octet (a)
wrench (a) and unbroken bow (d)
club/pin (a) and bike horn (d)
crosshairs (a) and cape (d)
forks (d) and coronet (a)
because it's a normal session, Karkat has to aquire items and coordinates for each member of his party on his own instead of having them preprogrammed like John found them durnign HIS ectobiology session
a doomed aradiabot shows up and gives kk her stuff
and tells him not to fuck it up this time
which starts him on the quest of party ectobiology basically
He finds the meteor, puts in AA's coordinates, and gets an imprint
then he has to leave to find tavros because he's next
get's tavros and vriska at the same time and learns that he has to do it in a certain order when he tries to switch to Vriska right away
it goes in order of the zodiac
Kanaya, fef and sollux all give him stuff with no argument
Terezi makes him do a quest wiht her, mostly just to fuck wiht him
tavros gives him the lance and thimble without arguing but vriska is ornery about it
eridan's stuff was aquired accidentally over operation regicerp, as was one of nepeta's claws
she gives him the hat so they'd match
his future self tells him to use the pants and is very irritated that now their favorite pants are gone
high enough to cover their grubscars goddamnit, and now they're fucking gone
first time he tries to appearify aradia he gets a doomed roboradia who gets really pissed off at him then disappears
