SO LET ME SEE IF I'VE GOT THIS RIGHT, BECAUSE AFTER AN INFODUMP LIKE THAT MY THINKPAN IS THREATENING TO SPLIT APART FROM THE SHEER FORCE OF HOW BULLSHIT THIS ALL IS.

MY FRIENDS AND I GET DRAGGED SCREAMING AND FLAILING INTO AN EXISTENTIAL CRISIS-INDUCING BID TO LEAVE EVERYTHING WE'VE EVER KNOWN BEHIND IN THE HOPES OF MAKING SOMETHING BETTER, GET BLOCKED ON THAT AT EVERY TURN, DIE OR COME CLOSE TO IT A WHOLE FUCKING LOT, SPEND THREE EARTH YEARS ON THE SHITTIEST POSSIBLE ROUTE THROUGH PARADOX SPACE TO THE BIG FINAL SHOWDOWN, COME THROUGH THAT WITH OUR MORTAL HUSKS MORE OR LESS UNSCATHED, AND *NOW* YOU'RE TELLING ME I'VE BEEN SHOOSHED TO YET ANOTHER NONSENSE-INFESTED CORNER OF REALITY?

TO FIX THINGS?

IS THERE ANY END TO THIS OVERTORQUED CAROUSEL OF MADNESS, OR ARE WE ALL SUPPOSED TO HOLD ON UNTIL WE'RE FLUNG TO OUR DOOM OR COVERED IN OUR OWN VILE STOMACH CONTENTS??

Kick some ass and show everyone else who's the baddest.

[There's only a moment of hesitation on Karkat's part -- he talks some big game, but he sucks at fighting and he knows it.

But hell if he can resist a statement like that. He actually grins, even though the effect is sort of diminished by his dumb pointy teeth.]

Hah, fuck yeah, that's one way to look at it! What's one more universe-consuming douchebag of a villain, right?

Totally. I mean, I've already killed one of those before. Shouldn't be too hard to do it a second time, you feel me?

Really? You too? I mean, shit, how many of these power-starved bulge-swilling assholes can there even be?

Don't know too much about that, really. I just kind of shoot anything that tries to eat my face. You know?

[That gets an eyeroll.]

Oh yeah, I know. I fucking know.

I'm more of a sickle guy myself, but it doesn't look like the bastions of good judgement that decided the best solution to this problem is to chuck teenagers at it until it yields remembered to pack any for me.

Are you freakin' serious? That totally sucks. You get any cool powers at least?

Well, I mean, um.

[Useful? Sure. Cool? No.]

Sort of? It's useful, anyway, and I can think of ways to make it work.

Yeah? That's cool. I'm still trying to figure mine out.

Like... ugh it's hard to explain.

So's mine. Actually, less 'hard' and more 'embarrassing enough to piss me off a little.'

What did you get saddled with?

See, the thing is, I don't know. At first I just thought "these bunch of noobs with their crappy equipment couldn't a diagnose a corpse with death" but they keep testing and the tests never finish. So I'm like, yeah.

Really? So what can you do, draw something terrible out interminably?

I really hope not. It'd be kind of lame if that was the case.
