You open up your laptop, and pull up TrollTube. You open up your account, and hit the necessary buttons to change your username.

For on this day of extreme badassery, you are going to actually get around to changing your TrollTube name to Karkat Vantas, instead of just calling yourself Nubbyhorns23.

You aren't really sure what you were thinking when you made the account. You had been rather tired at the time.

Username: Karkat Vantas is taken.

What.

The.

Fuck.

You are pissed. You are beyond your usual state of pissed-offedness. You are seriously, royaly, pissed. In a "Kill someone with a rusty spork" sort of way. Not a Kissimestitude. Just pissynesss. I mean, some freak was pretending to be you, and now you can'teven use your own name on Trolltube- oh sweet cod, there was someone impersonating you. There was someone impersonating you. There was some fucker pretending to be you right now.

If that doesn't make a troll paraniod, then nothing else will.

You sigh angrily, before switching programs to Trollian.

This is suspicious. Both you and Gamzee are being impersonated.

Someones going to die painfully.

It will probably involve sporks.

Still, best find out just how many of your friends are having the same coddamn issue.

CarnicoGenescist ceased trolling twinArmageddons at 2:19 AM

Right, that is probably the awesomest TrollTube name you have ever heard. Not that you'll ever admit it, but still. Epichackercaptor.

Epic.

Hacker.

Captor.

Brilliant, just brilliant.

You will never speak of this again.

But still, his actual name was being taken. That is a worrisome fact. Then again, Gamzee, Sollux and yourself are probably the only trolls worth impersonating on Alternia. The only thing to do now is to check with someone that everybody hates, that nobody with a functioning thinkpan would ever want to impersonate. The troll that will never fill a quadrant (or a bucket).

Eridan.

Fucking.

Ampora.

Cod, you hate your life.

Cod you hate talking to him! Not is a kissemis way. Just in a plain old hate sort of way. At least he doesn't know your blood colour. If he found out, that prick would never stop bitching about your mutant blood, and how it made him superior. Friggen douchebag ocean-prince.

But still, this is a worrying fact. Even finface is being impersonated.

Wait, maybe it's a matter of blood caste? Gamzee and Ampora both rank up at the very top, and you and Sollux are both just that freaking awesome that trolls might want to pretend to be you. Only one thing left to do. Check on lowest blood, apart from yours. And by that you mean Aradia.

So, it's not a matter of blood castes, or sheer awesomeness. Maybe they were all just being impersonated blindly? But who would want to do that? You really aren't sure who could be so bored as to have nothing better to do then impersonate a bunch of troll kids, and- Nepeta.

It's probably Nepeta.
