This fic features Nepkat, EridanxEridan, and Erisol. Enjoy!

You are now Karkat.

Alternate Karkat that is, you sigh deeply as you lean against the hull of the ship, the ship bobs rhytmically on the ocean and the salty scent carried by the wind makes you sigh. You have no idea why your on this shitty voyage in the first place, but something compels you to be in the frontlines of some freaky dangerous suicide mission. Why the fuck would you want to die twice, you miserable little shit? Nevertheless, here you are on a navy manned by the big bitch herself and that Meenah chick.

Since tons of your alternate friends, plus yourselves, somehow willingly joined into this suicide plan for who the fuck knows what reason, everyone's tried to sort out all the alternate selves based on the time periods they have died, which isn't easy, pretty fucking impossible actually, because people lie or don't know or just don't give a damn. That was just a lame rule set up by Kankri, because Captain Mindfang couldn't give a damn about any of the alternate selves. Hell, you don't even know who your own friends from your time are anymore, so you stopped giving a fuck. To be honest maybe this suicide mission will be worth it, you can stop worrying your nubs over this confusing...

Just then Nepeta walks over tentatively, she seems kind of nervous but speaks

:33 - Um, hello Karkat, you s33m puretty grumpy. What's on your mind?

WHAT'S ON MY MIND? WE'VE BEEN ON THIS SEA VOYAGE FOR DAYS WITH A MILLION DUPLICATES OF EACH AND EVERY ONE OF US HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO KNOW WHO'S WHO, HELL I WONT EVEN KNOW MY OWN SELVES ANYMORE

I MEAN, WHICH ONE ARE YOU? DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHO I AM? HOW COULD WE EVEN TELL EACH OTHER APART?

:33: It's not so bad,

What do you have do be so angry fur?

Sure we all look the same and all but inside we're a bit diffurent

Even our other selves have something that makes them unique. Purrhaps you're special in a way no other Karkitty is.

You just n33d to find it.

WELL, I GUESS.

I'M SURE YOUR PROBABLY RIGHT, IT STILL BLOWS MY FUCKING MIND LIKE A GOGDAMN EXPLOSIVE,

BUT WHAT THE HELL,

FOR ONCE LET ME JUST SUBMIT TO THE POSITIVE REASSURANCE OF A FRIEND AND DROP ALL MY PARANOID PROBLEMS THAT WILL PROBABLY BE THERE FOR ETERNITY

...WAIT A FUCKING MINUTE...

KARKITTY? DID YOU JUST CALL ME KARKITTY? WHY WOULD YOU GIVE ME SUCH A JUVENILE NICKNAME, WHAT's THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN?

:33- Oh...um...sorry, it's pawbably best if I

Maybe I should...

Karkat...Even befur I died I wanted to tell you this

/.../..Meanwhile../.../

You are now, of all people, Eridan. You stand against the doorframe as you watch those two lowbloods chatting it up. You shake your head in disgust, you can't even go outside to enjoy your ocean turf without a few trolls engaging in some rom activities. It makes you sick.

You go back inside in a huff, stomping your way through the ships creaking wood floors, you probably disturb the four other trolls from your "time period", but who glubbing knows who these guys are. You force your door open to your cabin and gasp, staring at two of your alternate selves. They are both sitting at the edge of a recuperacoon together and gaze at you wide eyed.

Eridan 1: Wwhat the actual fuck, me's!

I'm the only one allowwed on this ship, wwhy did you twwo evven decide to stowwawway?

2: Quite honestly, its none of your damn business Eridan! Wwe'vve been wwanting to get awway for some time, and wwe both decided it best to run awway from both our respective parties,
