(Karkat)

"Hey fuckass, wake up." You gently shake the sleeping beauty beside you. Her mouth was slightly open and you lean a bit closer until you could feel her breath on your nose. You softly trace her pink lips with your finger, careful of your nails. One of your curiosities is that human lips are pink, while yours are black. Pink lips look much more appealing.

She shifts and you pull your hand back and you jerk back a bit as if you got electrocuted or something. She blinks her beautiful green eyes and she smiles widely at you. Dammit.

"Good morning Karkat!" she says with excitement and you nod at her. You just know you're blushing. You're blushing so hard for a human girl. How pathetic could you get? You don't even know what quadrant you're feeling for her. Do humans even have quadrants?

She stands up and walks out of the room and you try so hard not to notice what she was wearing. You never noticed it last night, but whatever she was wearing looked comfortable as fuck. It made her look small though, which makes her even look cuter to your frustration.

You grumble some incoherent Alternian curses as you walk back to your room. Terezi was blocking your path, grinning at you. You frown at her.

("Looks like Karkles has a type! Hehehe, isn't that cute?") she tells you, and you frown even more.

("I absolutely do not have a type. Your thoughts can just screw itself for being such a screw-up and your next thoughts could just screw its own fucking ass while it's at it.") You tell her and she just cackles at you. Hmph, ex-matesprits.

(Jade)

You were about to greet Rose a very loud morning, but you see Kanaya sleeping on the bed. Rose was nowhere tobe found, but the water in the bathroom was on, so you assume that was her taking a bath. Kanaya looked really…tired. You hear noises from the other rooms.

You remember that the trolls had difficulty switching their body clock because they only sleep during the day. Karkat even hissed at you for waking him up and attempting to take him with you outside.

They slowly adjusted though. Maybe their planet's sun was too much for their skin? You made a mental note to ask Karkat that.

You hear the bathroom door open and Rose comes out, her body draped in a bathrobe and her hair wrapped in a towel. "Good morning. Where did you sleep?" She asks you and you chuckle.

"In the kitchen. Sorry! I went to have some tea and Karkat kept me company." You reply and Kanaya awoke, and her skin looks like it's glowing.

She moaned like she was in pain. Rose stiffened and looked at you with an expression of alarm. You immediately walk towards Kanaya and you could swear her fangs looks a little longer than it normally is.

"Kanaya? Are you okay?" Her only reply was a groan. Worried, you ran outside. Rose wasn't finished wearing her pants, so she hopped right behind you while pulling it up.

You search the corridor for the first troll you see. Target spotted. You see Vriska up and about. She was stretching peacefully, until you grabbed her arm.

("What the hell?") Vriska says in Alternian.

"There's something wrong with Kanaya!" you tell her with a loud voice and almost every troll's head showed right out of their doors. They all ran out, most seem to be dressed but Sollux was half-naked. What are those marks on the sides of his torso?

"What's wrong with her?" Karkat asks, his voice dead serious.

"I don't know but I think she's in pain. And her skin is glowing." Rose said, and you can tell she's trying so hard to calm down.

The trolls' faces went from anxious to calm. Vriska and Terezi even chuckled. Rose looked like she wanted to stab them with needles.

"Do not worry. She must be thirsty. We'll take care of it." Vriska says, leading towards Rose's room.

"What's all the noise about?" Dave asks, also half naked, and he was wearing his SB&HJ pajamas. Rose didn't look amused though. You think she's just as confused as you are. You have no idea what the hell is going on.

"Kanaya seems weird this morning. And the trolls said they'll take care of it." You tell Dave. There was some sort of a red handprint on his cheek. "Um, Dave? What's that?"

"Oh, Egbert just fucking gave me a goddamn morning greeting of slaps and kicks. He didn't even thank me for putting him in his PJ's. Ungrateful shit." Dave said, his tone just full of annoyance. You just smile apologetically at him, and you see Rose hurrying back to her room, following after the trolls. You follow her and Dave does as well.

(Kanaya)

You can feel an unbearable dryness in your throat. You can't even sit up straight. When was the last time you fed? You don't even remember. You can hardly concentrate on anything apart from your throat. It feels like you swallowed a bucketful of needles.

("Kanaya?") You hear someone calling your name. You try to open your eyes. It was difficult, but you could do it. You see Vriska sitting on the edge of the bed beside you. You can almost smell the wonderful scent of cerulean blood in her. You groan and you mentally slap yourself for doing it. ("It's time to feed you.")

You feel her hands going around your waist and lifting you up until your nose could touch her neck. You sniff and she smells really delicious. You slowly sink your teeth in it, and you start drinking…

You feel someone pushing you away, but you can't help it. It's been so long since you drank any blood you don't want to stop.

Then you feel someone pulling you away. Your teeth unclamped and you hiss at the one who was pulling you. It earned you a hard slap on the face.

You blink your eyes to focus and you see a horrified Rose staring wide-eyed at you. Everyone was. You see cerulean blood all over your blouse and you turn your head to Vriska. She was being cradled by Tavros, and it seems like she collapsed.

You inhaled in horror. You fed too much off of her.

("Oh no…Vriska? I'm so sorry!") You tell her, and you could see your hands shaking. You were always good at holding it all back. Now you feel guilty for getting too much.

You cover your face with your hands and you can feel tears streaming down your face. You feel someone patting your shoulder. ("It's all right. I just need to get some sleep.") Vriska tells you, but that wasn't enough to ease the guilt that you feel.

Suddenly, there was someone hugging you. She smells wonderful, but apparently it's a new scent of blood and you remember you smelled this last night. You lay your head to her shoulder as everyone decides to give you a moment. They left in silence while Rose continues to sooth and calm you.

"I'm sorry for hitting you. I didn't mean to do it." Rose whispers as her hands pat your back gently.

You should be thankful for that, but you can't bring yourself to say anything. You continue to sob. You did something terrible to a friend and she nearly died. You feel awful because of that.

(Dave)

You pull at Terezi's hand and she turns her head to you. She had a serious look on her face. Witnessing the bloody event must have switched her mood.

"What happened in there? Why was she drinking some blue liquid." You ask her and she gets a little annoyed at you for some reason.

"The blue liquid is blood. Kanaya is a rainbow drinker."
