Summary
Karkat sang the last chorus all on his own. His stance grew tall. The line of his shoulder was wide and for a second you felt like he might grow wings. Vocally he'd already flown high above the audience. You couldn't lie, even from behind, he was beautiful like this.
You finished the song accompanying him with a final, "Am I trying too hard?"
The crowd roared, you assumed Feferi and Jade's influence on them was strong. Still, you threw yourself over your drumset and lifted Karkat off his feet in a hug. Normally he'd kick you and thrash out of your grip, but today he just beamed. Dave was scrambling up onto the stage and throwing himself into the huddle, both of you working to keep Karkat balanced despite your jarring height difference.
You swore you could feel your trajectory in the universe starting to shift.
A Humanstuck story about Sollux, Karkat, and Dave starting a band to escape the epic highs and lows of high school bullying. Roughly set in the late 90s/early 00s.

Summary
Dave and co. figure life out, one quiet moment at a time.
or
A story about some kids who find their place.

There it is quiet, forget the violence
You've tried so hard to ignore -

Summary
Karkat always assumed that his life would be over as soon as the Empire caught wind of the cherry-colored sludge pumping through his vascular system. No muss, no fuss--just a good, clean culling fork to the chest. Little did he know that there was something far worse in store...
"Please tell me my auricular sponge clots are failing me here. Tell me I did not just hear you say that you are sending me to some shithole alien planet where I will be nook deep in squishy hairless monkeys.”
Meanwhile on Alternia: the political tides are shifting and the disappearance of a certain mutant blood sets into motion a revolution which could entangle Alternia and Earth together forever--or destroy them both.
