Try to explain what the hell is going on ====

So before you all complain let me get this out of the way. I have wings, go ahead laugh your asses off, but as far as I know, it was caused by a genetic disease that gives us a bit of its origin hosts DNA. For the 32 of us, it was birds that were the original hosts. Some of us have a mutation that allows them to grow even more fucked up mutations. Terezi for example has dragon like wings with feathers on the bones to keep the blood in the wings warm. Nepeta has cat ears and to sum it all up Jade has dog ears. All in all when we were born the government decided to flip their shit and take us all captive. We were tested on, not harshly, but just to see what we were, but other than out the windows of our rooms, we were never saw the outside world.

We at one point or another escaped.

It happened on that one fateful day…

Flashback

"Karkles, can you get Kankri to shut up for us?" Terezi begged you, you could try, but you only managed to do that miracle once.

"Can I finish my fucking food!" You shout, you were about to go on when the officer steps into the dining hall, calling for attention.

"Now as you see your 'condition' is genetic. English, not your friend but his namesake, decided the best idea was to get you all 'fixed'." Officer Spade said, your mouth drops and Kanaya bites the bottom of her lip.

"And we you are going to just take away the one thing most of us look forward to," Kankri started and you just knew he needed to shut up. "What makes us different, is it our wings? If so please do come up with another answer, so you can at least explain this triggering situation?"

"Enough! First in line for surgery is… John Egbert," Spade says, enjoying Egbert's unsteady walk to the exit.

Dave had different ideas.

Explanation break from flashback.

Now I will explain something about wing colors, the government wanted to know in the case of needing to 'put us to sleep' what order to go in. So they created a spectrum. I was considered a mutant, I should be dead but they took pity on Kankri and me. Dave is not a mutant, he is just on the line of being mutant but not there yet.

Back to flashback.

He whipped out his rust-ish red wings, and yelled.

"Sollux, Psionics, the window, DO IT NOW!"

Sollux used his psionics to then blast a bad ass hole where a window used to be.

You knew he wouldn't use them before because of how the guards would kill him, but desperate times call for desperate measures. You all read books on fling but never got to try it ourselves. So Dave went first, letting his instincts take over and took off, dragging John behind him. The Lalondes took off second followed by the Maryams and the second Strider. Then the rest of you took off in formation, being shot at, watching your cages shrink into the background.

But life likes to make your life hell.

The turbulent winds and thick clouds separated you all. The last thing you remember is managing to stay with Kankri as he vowed celibacy until he found his family, and heart again.

End flashback.

"Karkat, wake up, you know how triggering it is to me to have to spend an average of 20 minutes a morning blah blah blah." Kankri made it hard for me to keep on sleeping, but I did have homeschool and a night job to attend.

"Alright, let me fucking get dressed!" I yelled giving in to his lecture.

Little did I know, being late to the class video chat would have helped this day
