You are now KARKAT VANTAS.

Right now seems to be a good time to introduce Karkat to our readers, doesn't it?

Karkat Vantas was born in that supposedly unknown country called Alternia. Before he moved to this stupid country, aka the United States of America, he lived in Alternia with your dad. His parents are divorced.

But just because his parents are divorced doesn't mean his mother doesn't love you. She shoots him like ten emails a week, but because of his constant crabbiness he only bother to respond to one—two or three if he's in an exceptionally good mood.

Anyway, she found out about this foreign exchange program that several of his "friends" just so happened to be enrolled in already. And apparently he met all the requirements for it, and there were enough people enrolled for it to work out, so…that's how he got to this hellhole.

Karkat plopped his Styrofoam lunch tray full of shitty cafeteria food down on the table across from that John kid. He glanced over at the other three kids with him as Terezi sat down next to him.

A dude with blonde hair and sunglasses. Wannabe, he thought. A goth-looking chick with the same shade of blonde hair. Standard goth. And another chick with dark hair and glasses. Nerd. Damn. This John kid's friends were pretty standard-looking. At least he thought so.

"Hi!" The dark-haired girl introduced herself. "I'm Jade."

"Jade…" Karkat repeated her name with a slight expression of disgust.

"Is something wrong?" John cocked his head at the exchange student. Karkat bit his lip, in attempt to fulfill his mother's wishes. Stop being such a crab.

"No."

He turned to Terezi, who continued to pick at her food. She looked up at Karkat, her eyes filled with loneliness.

"Hey, Terezi, why do you wear those sunglasses? You're obviously not blind." John looked back to you, hoping for an answer.

Terezi answered before Karkat could even open his mouth. "I have severe glaucoma."

"Oh." John looked away, clearly embarrassed.

Karkat noticed that blonde dude checking Terezi out. It made him kind of nervous—he's had a crush on Terezi for a while now, but hasn't told her yet.

"Well." Karkat awkwardly coughed and finished choking down his lunch. Note to self: Bring your lunch to school. "I have to go find my…friend."

Karkat: BE TEREZI.

You are now TEREZI PYROPE.

Her friend Karkat just left her here with a bunch of almost strangers…but, hey, the blonde dude's kind of cute. But so is Karkat. I'm screwed, she thought.

Of course, she's only assuming that. Terezi can't make out much other than their standard facial features, because of her glaucoma. But they both smelled nice. Smelling nice is always a plus.

Terezi pulled out her phone and squinted to look at it. One new message from her older sister, Latula.

h3y! it reads. just w4nt3d to ch3ck up on my l1ttl3 s1s!

She was no help at all, but whatever. She's cool. Terezi was sure she's never be as cool as she is.

The cute blonde looked pretty cool. Terezi turned to him. "I'm…Terezi," she somehow managed to get out.

"Dave." He didn't even turn to look at her. Oh well.

"Oh, and this is Rose." John gestured toward the blonde girl sitting at the table. She nodded politely.

"Um, well…" Terezi could barely finish her food. She was pretty sure it was fake. "I think I'm going to go with Karkat."

"Talk to you later, I guess?"

"Sure." She got up to throw her tray away.

"Karkat!"

Karkat turned around. "Terezi, you're going to drop your books."

"Oh." God, I'm stupid, she thought. But Karkat didn't mind.

She had her next class with him. Art. Terezi loved drawing things, especially dragons. She didn't care what other people said. Dragons were her favorite animals. Dragons were real.

Terezi accidentally bumped into someone and looked up. "Oh, Dave…"

"Terezi, right?"

She blushed. "Mm-hm."

"Hey, you've gotten your schedule, right? Do you have music next?"

"Oh, um, no… Art…"

"Oh. I'll catch you later then." Dave flipped back his hair as he continued to walk down the hallway.

Oh no, Terezi thought. She's liked Karkat for so long…but she feared she liked Dave more. He was so…cool and mysterious. Karkat's just…Karkat.

Is that good or bad?

I CANNOT FANFICTION AT 2AM I AM SORRY

As mentioned in the last chapter (I think) I have no idea where I am going with this...maybe writing as I go along is a bad idea. I don't really know, still. I know this has potential but I haven't gotten really good ideas for it yet.

I'd appreciate your reviews and comments (and maybe ideas please?) so I know what I can do with the next chapter(s).

Oh, and I know you don't really know what the pairings will be at this point. Right now the main pairings I have planned are

-Karkat/Terezi

-John/Vriska

-Rose/Kanaya

-Nepeta/Equius

-Gamzee/Tavros

-Sollux/Aradia

-Dave/Jade

So yeah. I hope you enjoyed.
