I don't own Homestuck or any of the characters.
This is just a shitty AU I came up with after I was inspired by this fic-

I apologize for the shittiness of my fic.
BTW, Kieran is non binary, so I'll be using They/them pronouns.
And the title is just some random crap put together and literally has nothing to do with the story.
During the conquest of Earth, a new heiress appeared and challenged Her Imperious Condesension. This challenger, known as Feferi Peixes, was hailed as victorious after slaying the Empress in the succession duel, and was immediately crowned as the new Empress.
This new Empress began pressing for a new empire, specifically one where culling no longer occurred.
As such, new practices were brought in, but they proved to be defective.
Then, a scienterrorist proposed a novel idea.
Originally, the new practices involved newly hatched grubs to be selected by lusii, and cared for, as opposed to newly pupated trolls being selected by the lusii.
Obviously, this did not work out well, for lusii had no idea how to raise these grubs, and would often end up accidentally or purposefully killing them.
However, studies on the alien species, humans, from the conquered planet Earth showed that humans acted as lusii for their own young.
Therefore, this scienterrorist proposed that humans be used as lusii.
The Empress agreed to this, and had it enacted immediately.
While deciding this, something was brought to her attention.
The Orphaners, violet-blooded trolls who were tasked to kill lusii to sate the hunger of Gl'bgolyb, were now no longer necessary, as the Emissary to the Horrorterrors had been slain through unknown means by an unknown killer.
The head of the Orphaners, Orphaner Dualscar, now had nothing else to do, but answer for the deaths of the young trolls whose lusii he killed.
It was not his fault, as that was simply the task that he was required to perform.
Nonetheless, something had to be done.
The scienterrorist, however, seemed to have helped the Empress with her decision regarding the Orphaner.
One of the ideas of the scienterrorist was to have adult trolls live alongside the human lusii, in hopes that maybe they would learn how to care for the young of their own kind.
Such a fate was deemed suitable for the Orphaner, so he was given his new orders.
He was to live alongside a human lusus, and learn.
To be safe, only a few humans and trolls were selected, as a trial stage, to see if this theory could work.
It was to be one troll and one human living in the same hive, with a maximum of five eggs each hive.
Those in this experiment were given a briefing by jade bloods on what to expect from the grubs, including care of sea dwelling and land dwelling grubs, and the pupation of the grubs into young trolls.
There were a total of five groups, one had five eggs, one had four, two had three, and one had two.
To insure the safety of all involved, the hives were built close together, in what humans would call a neighborhood.
The hives were outfitted to suit the needs of both the troll and the human residing in them, and each group was monitored, as to insure that the humans or the trolls did not attack each other or the eggs.
The experiment was to start now, with the human-troll pairings in their hives, awaiting for their eggs to hatch.
In one of the hives, which was a very large hive built to house a sea dwelling troll and a human, as well as five little grubs, Orphaner Dualscar was brooding.
He was not pleased with the current unfortunate events that he found himself in.
The human, Kieran Childs, could care less, or at least, they appeared as such.
Beneath their stony calm exterior bubbled a cocktail of emotions, with anxiety being the only feeling they could really pick out.
They were staring down at the five white eggs, waiting for them to hatch.
According to that pretty lady troll, Kieran wouldn't know the blood color of the troll until it hatched.
Not that the whole "hemospectrum" made any sense to them.
But apparently it did make a difference in biology, so there was that.
Nonetheless, they vowed to treat each grub equally.
After all, it wasn't the grubs' fault that Kieran's planet was conquered, and his people pretty much made into slaves.
No need to vent such rage against these little ones.
As for the adult troll living with Kieran...
The at least 9 ft. tall, brooding sea dwelling troll that looked as if he could easily snap Kieran in two at any moment.
Yeah, no.
Kieran wasn't going to take their chances with him.
For now, they'd just have to wait, and hope.
