A/N: Just a little obligatory trolls-purring-because-I-can drabble. My first Homestuck fic.
Disclaimer: Not I, said the cat.
Karkat is your matesprit, and when Karkat purrs, you purr.
You're positive Karkat's soft, knitting purr sounds just the same now as it did when he was a grub. Your own purr has deepened with your voice, which isn't much, you know, but it has. Your purr rumbles up through your chest and catches in the back of your throat. Karkat's goes up into his nose a little. It's just a tad nasally.
You think it's cute.
You used to tease him about it, but you stopped when he started trying to stifle it. As much as you teased, it made you happy. Because purring meant Karkat was happy
Now Karkat is curled up against your side. One of his shitty romcoms is providing background noise and you can feel the soft beginning ticks of a purr in his chest. His eyelids droop.
"Go to thleep, KK"
"Shut up, Tholluks." He nuzzles into your side despite himself, shutting his eyes and purring quietly.
You snort softly and squeeze him a little closer with the arm around his back. Then you start to purr too.
