Why you?

Summary
It feels too much like another end in a long string of ends, and John wonders if he’s going to make it out the other side alive or not. Maybe it’ll be like a butterfly, and he’ll just shed everything he knew and loved about his life and wake up one day as someone other than John Egbert.

In which five years, 200 miles, and all the complexities of not being the same species aren't enough to keep Karkat from falling in love.

Summary
In a gust of wind, all her dreams come true, and suddenly John is sweeping both of his human friends up in a hug, all teeth and smiles and miles of ridiculous blue hood. His face is moving too fast for her to study as he squishes her awkwardly against Dave, who is fighting a grin and losing, but he smells like that first crisp wind of autumn that stirred the drying leaves and fills her with energy and joy and peace.

Summary
Later, he'd try to dismiss the whole incident as some coolkid version of a midlife crisis (at 22) or a drunken decision (no one could outdrink a Strider), but the real reason was a lot simpler.

Summary
He thought he'd had everything under control.
Of course, he'd thought that many times throughout the course of the game. Every last instance, without fail, had occurred moments before disaster.
But each one had been salvageable. There had been hope. But not this time. There wasn't anything left.

Summary
Your name is Karkat Vantas. Today is a Wednesday, your least favorite day of the week (if that's even possible), it's raining and you are flat on your back on your roomate's bed waiting for him to come home.

Summary
There was neither time nor space, just endless, effortless flight that had all the thrill of being paralyzed.
Once, she had spoken - barked - in an effort to convince herself that she still existed. She didn't try it twice.

Summary
There are only two ways to die as a God - Heroic, and Just.
No matter what, your lasting death must mean something good - something righteous, monumental, and for the betterment of all.
But can a death really be as meaningful as a life?

Summary
So he coaxed a battle out off his little brother, treasuring the knowledge that Dave was still just young enough to value vertical sports over horizontal ones, and he flash-stepped around him. Their feet made the sickest of rhythms on the still-hot concrete, a song composed of the clash of steel and punctuated by the occasional caw of a crow as Bro Strider tried to stop time.
