Karkat grumbled as he shut the door behind him. Taking in the view of Porrim's hive as he sat down on the coach in the living room. It was what he expected to say the least of her taste. The walls where white and the furniture had a mix of colors that complimented each set. Propping his arm under his chin his mind be can to wonder back to the events that led him here.

He had just died from his last encounter with Gamzee. Then he found himself back in the dream bubbles feeling pretty fucking frustrated. Unfortunate for him the first person he was greeted by was Kankri. Needless to say there was too much that he had to say to Karkat. Trigger warnings, inquiring about what he had plans for later, and more, so much more talking. Karkat had enough of it, an blew up the regularly schedule lecture. First he took a deep breath and exhaled. Second he puts his two index fingers together then closing his eyes he pictures everything he hates in paradox space. Last step, opens his eyes, swing his hands to the side into curled up fists and shouts.

"SHUT!"

"THE!"

"FUCK!"

"UP!"

Kankri was not just speechless but was cupping his ears from the sheer volume of Karkat's voice. Though Karkat didn't stop there, he went on to yell about all the bullshit that Kankri had him listen to since he met the wind bag of a dancestor. Giving his own lecture at last about how much he regrets ever wasting his time on him. Then preceded to throwing swear words at past Karkat for being such a waste of genetic material. His face slowly turning into a candy red apple as he goes back to insulting Kankri. Using every insult known in paradox space and when he was done going down the list he invented new ones on the spot.

After he was done he fell to his knees panting. Kankri inched away until he turned his head around them to see that a group of onlookers had formed around them. A gold trident had been tossed over by Karkat's legs.

"Finish him!"chanted Meenah.

Which was then met with a hand to the back of her head.

"Ow!"she grumbled as she turned her head to a very angry Porrim.

Making her way through the ring of spectators into the center between the two mutant bloods. She had her arms crossed and she was glowing like the Rainbow Drinker she was. Then she glared at the group sending them the message to get lost. They took the hint pretty fast as they all ended up stampeding their way out of the scene. Leaving behind a trampled Cronus and Tavros who helped each other limp to safety.

Porrim leaned over Karkat and asked, "Are you alright?"

He sighed, "I'm sorry, I just wasn't in the mood to put up with him."

She turned to Kankri who was still in shock at the events that had transpired.

"Well I'm waiting Kanny."

Snapping out of it, he remarked, "Why are you looking at me in such a way? I had done nothing to warrant such a reaction as I had before in the beginning stated all trigger warnings. Even asking in advance that should such a topic arrive to give such a grievance, that one could simply speak up. Then by that verbal solicitation, the subject would be given it's respected tag."

"Fucking fine then, you ready for round two!? Of my solicitation!?" Karkat bellowed as he be can to rise back up from the floor.

Kankri shook his head.

"Oh glob no-" He had then put both his hands over his mouth and was panicking after remembering that Karkat had told him to not so nicely be quiet. Porrim was rolling her eyes at Kankri, if you can believe it. Then she looked back at Karkat, sighing but then smiled.

"What?" he spat.

Porrim still smiling replied "You need to calm down dear and I have just the plan."

"Bullshit."

"Come to my hive tomorrow, to see for yourself." She chimed.

"Why would I want to?"

"Well you can stay here with your favorite person in paradox space and talk all about what triggers you, again." She said as she wrapped her arm around Kankri's shoulder. Who would be shouting himself at Porrim to stop touching him now. If he wasn't so scared of Karkat getting angry again if he chose to utter another word.

"Or I can take him off your hands. Letting you get back to whatever you had planned to do."

Karkat was rolling his eyes at this point, if you can believe it.

Then grumbled," Fine. Take him away, I'm absolutely sick of this fuckass anyway."

"Then it's a deal." She smiled.

Porrim then led a very silent Kankri away. While Karkat decided he would take Meenah's trident back to his place to dump into his trashcan. Ironically he never really bothers to use the damn thing in the first place but figures it would be the best home for the fish bitch's shit til she comes looking for it.

Karkat heard the bedroom door open and sure enough it was Porrim walking in. Before she came into the living room she decided it would be best to help the mood with a cold glass of tea. Handing one off to Karkat before taking a seat on the other side of the couch.

"Care to explain what caused such a episode?" she asked. "Don't worry though, what happens in my hive stays in my hive dear."

Karkat looked back at the glass of tea in his hand. Placing it on the coffee table next to the couch. "Where do I fucking begin?"

Next few minutes he began to recount all the events that had happen after his first visit to the dream bubbles. How everything just escalated out of hand as soon as his group entered the new session.

How all he had accomplished was dying once to a random female John and then after being revived, getting killed again by who he thought was his "best friend." His hands balled up into fists again while thinking that not only did he fail as a morail but he fail to help anyone.

Porrim moved a little closer to him as he went on. Until she was right next to him, holding her tea with her hands over her lap. "It's hard to make a difference, but you shouldn't be beating yourself up about it."

"It's my fault."

"Your not the only one who messes up and even though you believe you didn't matter. Can you say that your friends would say the same thing?" she said before taking a sip of the tea.

"No." he whispered.

"After we all died in our session. We didn't blame each other for what happen, and some of us even believe we still effect what happens to the living." Porrim then placed her glass on table in front of the couch.

"Trigger warning right?"Karkat scoffed.

Porrim broke into a smile. "You know he thinks he hasn't done enough too."

"Well I think he has done more than fucking enough." He said while leaning away from Porrim.

"Hey come back here I'm not going to bite." She chimed.

Karkat turned his head to look back at her. "Does it matter?"

"Well I guess so, if you just started to relax a bit more." she replied.

He decided to lean back to where he was, only to take in how there was little space between the trolls. His eyes wondered for a second in her direction before he swung his head towards the table in front of them. Porrim chuckled when seeing that his face can turn red even when he is not angry.
