Hi guys! This is my first Homestuck fanfiction. SolKat is my otp, but expect mentions of other pairs.
I don't own anything but the story and some original characters. Enjoy!
Humanstuck. :D
I was walking through the streets with my usual attire on. Black hoodie with a Gemini symbol on it, red scarf, my jeans and a pair of black old converse.
"Fuck!" I cursed silently. I never expected it to be this cold. I should have worn something inside my hoodie. Like some sweater or shit. I found myself shivering to the slightest touch of wind. Since when did I-the fucking magnificent- Sollux Captor, become this vulnerable to cold? How annoying. I feel like an as-
"Ow!" I heard a small squeal beneath me. I looked down and found a small girl cupping her head. I must've bumped into her. She's about six or seven. I don't really care, but I still apologised, of course.
"Sorry... Uhhh" I reached her arms and helped her stand up.
"It's okay!" She grinned. "Can I ask you something mister?" Her face filled with curiosity. I raised a brow for a second then nodded. "It's past seven pm, and you're still wearing those blue and red sunglasses. why?"
I was strucked. I opened my mouth but it closed on its own. Luckily though, her mother picked her up saying she's been looking for her everywhere. She then looked at me and gave an apology before walking away.
Why do I wear this glasses you say?
I'm heterochromic.
It's some sort of shit I don't even plan on researching about. The doctor told us, me and my mother, that I am experiencing complete heterochromia in which my other pupil is blue and the other is red. It's caused by lack of melanin or whatever. I forgot.
It's pretty funny cause it freaks people out. But sometimes, it freaks them out too much to the point where I got bullied back in grade school, someone rarely talks to me and people keeping distance from me. Hey, it's not like my eyes would eat the ever living shit out of you.
People are like that. If you're different, you're always wrong. You're always... Unaccepted. I know a lot of popular icons with heterochromia, but theirs isn't as obvious as mine. Hazel and brown is the common combination. There is a woman in Russia with half heterochromia... green to blue iris. But it wasn't obvious. I wonder why mine had been so goddamn obvious? I laughed as I walked through the streets. Muffling beneath my scarf and keeping my hands to my pocket.
Blue and red? Seriously? What combination is that?
I shook off every thought about my eye condition and grabbed the door keys from my pocket.
I live in a two-storey apartment with two roommates. One being that foul mouthed, messy haired, height lacking prick and the other being the rapping guy with a shaved hair on both sides. Heh. I grinned at the fact that we three have something in common... Hair problems. Mine sticks out too much at the sides.
I opened the door and, as always, was greeted by empty bags of chips thrown around the living room and my other roommate watching some romcoms. I never knew how he dealt with those kinds of movies. It's all lovey dovey and.. Uh. Gross.
"Good evening fucker. Did you bring anything for me?" He looked pass his shoulders and gave me a glare.
"No Kk. Why would I? I bent down to pick the pieces of trash. These guys never learned how to clean. God. It's annoying. I feel like I'm raising eight year old kids. Why? Well, lemme tell you.
I do the cleaning.
I do the cooking.
I wake them up, because they sleep like twelve to sixteen hours a day.
I am the one who is working for their asses.
Karkat's in college. Despite his height, which is incredibly short, he's 19. His studies are funded by his parents. But every appliance in this apartment is paid by me. How goddamn awesome.
Tavros, the rapping guy, is also in college. He's 20. Pretty short but not really much. He's a bit responsible unlike Kk. But whenever he brings his boyfriend here, the room just... Explodes.
Sometimes I regret living with them, but they entertain me. Kk seems to like gaming as much as I do, so we play every once in a while. Tavros, being a senior, helps Kk with school works and I dunno... he just gives this peaceful feeling though he's a little asshole. He's kinda used as a messenger sometimes. Kk and I both have short tempers. His is worse though. Whenever we would fight, we use Tav as some sort of communication.
But I still hate them. Two fucking wimps. Can't even wake up on time.
"Sollux! Hey you fucker. Listen! " I blinked my eyes. "Jesus. You doze off While talking to me."
"No I did not"
"You did, you ass." he groaned and signaled me to come near.
"What?" I asked without moving from my place.
"Throw that trash and get your 3D eyes here." he started teasing me that about a year ago. After my lisp had gone, he didn't know what to call me anymore. He didn't want 'Sollux' because I had like, three or four names for him.
"What're we gonna do? Make out on the couch?" I grinned. And no. I don't like him. It was a tease.
"God fucking dammit. Just throw that shit." He crossed his arms. Face slightly turning pink.
"Okay okay." I scratched the back of my neck while searching for the trash bin. After throwing the trashes, I returned to Karkat. "Now what?" I sat beside him.
He turned the television off and grabbed something from a paper bag.
"Look what I got. You wimpdick!" He brought out a small rectangular case and shoved it to my face "Assassin's fucking Creed 3"
My eyes were wide open. We've been excited ever since the game's release, but I'm short on budget and he won't even use his money for it. He says because the Xbox is mine, I should buy the games. Meh. Whatever. "So you bought it with your own money?" I asked
"I had to save money for a week just because of this game, dumbass!"
"Hah. Really amazing. Tell me how hard that is when you started paying for electricity."
He groaned, then glared at me. "At least be proud or happy or shit." His face turning pink again.
I smiled at him. "Fine. Honestly, I was a bit happy you bought something you like without bugging me." I wasn't lying.
Since it's saturday tomorrow and I have an afternoon shift, I decide to join him. We played the night through. It was nothing but two boys fighting over the controller. He kinda sucks at stealth games so I always ended getting the 100% synchronization for him because he flips every shit if he fails or gets 50% sync.
We didn't mind the time. For all I know, it was midnight and it was raining. Hard
"Where's Tav anyway?" I asked while running my fingers along the controller's buttons. Heck, as a gamer, I'd say mashing the controller is better than pounding some bitches in the ass.
"It says press 'A' fucker!" He shouted. We were fighting a bear and it was annoying
"Kk you didn't answer my question" I imidiately pressed the required button.
"Press 'Y'! Press 'Y'! And Tav's at Gamzee's. Some rapping bonding. I dunno. I bet Tav's getting laid by now anyway."
I laughed at his statment. It's true. Gamzee Makara's a junkie. He'd touch Tavros whenever he can. But as I heard from Tav, Gamzee's a little shy about his feelings and he can only express them during sex.
Weird. I don't understand lovers.
I gazed back at Kk while the game is having a cutscene. His eyes glued to the monitor while my eyes glued to him. This man had been my best friend for as long as I know. But I don't really understand our friendship. We fight often. Throw curses at each other. But we always did crazy shit together. Even though he's the grumpiest prick ever.
"What?" He gave me a confused look.
"Nothing." I felt a bit embarrassed about getting caught staring at him. "You go play. I'm sleepy" I gave him the controller and went upstairs after saying Good Night.
I changed to some comfortable clothes and let myself completely fall on the bed. The ruffling of sheets filled the quiet room... I was staring at the ceiling...
My eyes were getting heavy... I was about to close them and have some good night sleep until there was a loud boom and the power lines went off.
"The game fucking autosaves" I grunted. I am not going through the same hard missions again. Dammit.
There was a loud sound again. This time coming from downstairs.
"Kk!" I quickly get up and rushed to the door.
Thanks for reading! I wrote this on TA's perspective because I find it hard to be the narrator.
Sorry for a glubload of swearings. Hahahaha. Kinda felt natural for me.
I don't know how long this will go, but I hope I can continue it even I'm pretty busy. :)
ChApTeR tWo Is CoMiNg JuSt WaIt! :o) hOnK.
