Enjoy please =3
The small troll sighed, rubbing his gloved hands together as he headed back to their group hive. After his matesprit's death about a sweep and half back, he had grown more cold and quiet, even to his friends. He got involved with a gang, getting into stealing and killing and all kinds of other crimes like it would bring him peace for the one time he hadn't been there for the only person he truly wanted. He was filled with anger and grief over his matesprit and aimed his emotions on whatever he was told aim at by his superiors. Over the past sweep and half he had risen quite high on the gang ranks and held power which he rarely used on the newer recruits of the large gang.
He was just returning from a very successful job, ready to go home and sleep for a while. He just hoped no one would bother him when he got there. Despite the fact he had such a high rank, he lived with a friend instead of the rest of the gang for now at least. He just didn't want to sleep there with so many people, especially with many of them lacking morals.
It was a pretty quiet night, probably because of how late it was. He was passing by an alley when he heard a pathetic whimpering noise. He stopped, glancing inside and staring at what he saw. At first glance it looked like a tall troll with long horns and raggy clothes. Then he noticed more beast-like ears poking out of the troll's messy raven locks and a twitching tail on the ground as well as many cuts and bruises littering the taller's form. The oddest part, though, were his long legs, covered in fur and bent like a mewbeast's leg, even having paws on the end rather than feet. Glowing purple eyes focused on the troll in the opening of the alley. The beast like troll let out another whimper, begging for help without real words. When he got no reaction, the creature tried whimpering louder and moving towards the entrance, only to hiss in pain by aggravating his wounds. He laid back down and whimpered defeatedly.
The small troll frowned before slowly making his way into the alley, he could see purple blood all over the place. "Ummm hey," he stated softly to get the taller's attention. He received a hopeful look, and the creature pushed himself up into somewhat of a sitting position. The small troll sighed, crouching in front of the creature to look over the damage. Some of the markings looked like knife markings as well as some bite-marks and claw-marks with bruises speckling his face and arms. The creature tried to pull himself closer to him but he whimpered and stopped.
The other groaned quietly, knowing he couldn't just leave the thing out here but he would have a horrible time trying to get the twice his size creature to his apartment. The thought of giving his roommate a call to help crossed his mind, but it was pretty late and he didn't want to deal with the yelling at this hour. The creature whimpered again, and he sighed. There wasn't really any choice in the matter with how pathetic it was acting. He placed a hand on the creature's head to calm him, hoping it would help as he dug through his pocket to call his friend.
The phone rung a few times before a groggily, annoyed voice picked up with a mindless mumble of words. "Sollux, get out of bed and throw some clothes on. I need your help," the small troll commanded, trying not to speak too loudly since it might scare the creature currently nuzzling his stomach. He felt the creature rest his head on his thigh and purr, bright purple eyes staring up at him. The troll gave a small smile before looking out of the alley to give his grumbling friend a street name.
About 10 minutes later, another troll enters the alley and stops. "... you didn't thay it wath a troll with beatht parth KK," he muttered unhappily at the creature as he entered the thin space more. The injured creature growled at him and clung to the small troll. The smaller blinked at the creature as his friend approached them. "Why'th he growling?" the slightly older troll asked, arms crossed. After a moment the creature huffed and buried his face into his stomach. The other troll put his hands on the creature's shoulders to shift him off of the smaller so they could help him up. He got growled at and nearly bitten, but the pair managed to shift the creature off of the smaller with no injures.
Then they slowly encouraged him to stand with their help. His legs shook as he stood, almost in a crouched position so he was at eye-level with the smaller troll. The pair then worked on trying to get the creature to walk with them without him putting too much weight on himself. It was hard and took a while, but they got to the apartment. They were thankful for having a first floor apartment for once. They laid him down in the front room, the shorter going to the bathroom and getting their first aid kit. He came back, opening the kit and starting to disinfect the wounds. After he finished that he started to wrap them all up, surprised at the fact the creature didn't make any noise at all. He yelped however when he was pulled into a tight embrace, held against a bony, yet warm chest. "What the hell are you doing!? Let me go. Wait, you are going to aggravate your wounds," he exclaimed. The grip on him was loosened, but he was not released. The smaller tried to push him away without hurting him, which wasn't working too well. He sighed before giving up on trying to get away. The creature seemed to be half asleep so the smaller followed his example and went to sleep too.
The small troll blinked his bright red eyes open and groaned softly. He frowned when he felt the floor he was sleeping on vibrating. Then he remembered it wasn't the floor. He shifted slowly to look up at the sleeping creature's peaceful face. He sighed softly, trying to unwrap the arms from his waist, unsuccessfully. The creature's eyes slowly opened and slid down to look at him. "Can you let me go now?" the troll asked, trying to look annoyed. The creature shook his head and hugged him even tighter. "Okay it's not a question anymore, let me go," the smaller growled. Slowly those long arms slipped away from around his back, and a baby-barkbeast look was directed at him.
The smaller ignored the look as he got up, checking the time before going to make something quick to eat before he had to go to work. The creature got up and followed him, still in a crouching position since if he stood up he would probably hit his head on the ceiling. He was still a bit taller than him, however, even in the crouch. The troll blinked at the creature who was walking, despite the pretty serious injures cleaned and wrapped less than 12 hours ago. He shook his head before digging through the fridge for something to just throw in the microwave. He nearly lost his balance as he looked through the fridge when the creature's head was set rather unceremoniously on his shoulder.
"Can you not lean on me?" the smaller asked, eyebrow twitching. His cheek got nuzzled before the large creature crawled to the other end of the room to watch him. The troll sighed, rubbing his temples. "You are probably hungry too, right?" he asked. He got a grin and a nod. "...Do you eat normal food?" the troll asked, hoping it was yes since he didn't know what this thing would eat if not normal troll food. Another nod. The troll sighed, turning back to the fridge and digging through it a bit. He and Sollux really needed to talk about not having so many fucking leftovers in there, it made finding real food hard. Finally he found some fruit, squealbeast-meat, and some pastries. He put the meat and pastries in the microwave and cut up the fruit a bit.
A few minutes later, he put two plates at the table, waiting for the creature to join him at the table before he started to eat. "...Can you speak?" he asked a moment later. He only got a grin as he sat down rather awkwardly in the chair, legs stretching out all the way through the underneath of the table. "... I'm gonna take that as a no," the smaller sighed. He continued to eat for a little bit more. "I'm Karkat by the way," he added. There was another grin and a purr. The small troll, Karkat only rolled his eyes at the very possibly small think-panned creature and continued to eat. He finished eating before taking his dish to put in the sink to be washed later. He left the kitchen to go to his room to take a quick shower and get dressed for work. He had to make the creature stay in the kitchen since he tried a few times to follow him to the bathroom.
After he finished his shower and got dressed, he came back into the living room where the creature was now waiting for him. Karkat frowned and stepped around him to go to the door. The creature was right on his heels. "No, you can't come with me!" the troll growled. All he got was a stupid grin and the creature purring against his feet. Karkat tried to step away from him and close the door before the creature could follow but to his dismay, the other figured out how to open the door. He gave up trying to get the creature to stay and simply headed to work. He was followed of course, at a distance maybe but followed.
Hope you enjoyed... there is more.
