FORGOTTEN
ARADIA: PONDER
BY unnoticedTurmoil
Sigh. Today you and Sollux had been planning to go to the beach. Just the two of you. but Sollux hadn't wanted to leave Karkat alone, and hadn't been able to find anyone to watch him. She hated that. He wasn't even Karkat anymore. It's like he just vanished. Like some wizard snapped his fingers and did a magic trick. Snap! Small, angry, petite Karkat. Snap! Short, empty, boney Karkat. But no one had the heart to cull the poor troll. And Sollux… no one wanted to admit it, but Karkat was important. He was loud, he was obnoxious, he was rude. But he was close to all of them. He might have liked to think he hated you all, but then why had you talked to you? unknown to anyone in your little group of friends, he was the one troll you could vent at, the one troll you could imagine caliginously then move on. none of you really hated him though. He was also the one troll you could talk to. Really talk to. Have a heart-to-heart feelings jam, but not one you'd want a morailance with. He was the kind of troll you could imagine in any quadrant then not have the reasons to put him in one. Or was. That was before he.. changed. Nobody even knew why. Then Gamzee disappeared. And then Karkat disappeared. Eridan found him though. He found Karkat in a cove playing with little crabs. They all thought Gamzee put him there, but you know better. You suspect Karkat's lusus did it. Even though they had all believed his lusus abandoned him when he.. changed. You don't think that anymore though. You should have known better from the start. You had gone to the hive he'd been sharing with Gamzee and heard this gog awful screeching. You had collapsed to your knees with the pain, wanting to tear your ears off your head with the agony. But then the screeching stopped. You had blinked the tears from your eyes and looked about in fear. That's when you noticed crabdad run –running? Uh.. scuttling into the woods. A few days later Eridan found Karkat in the cove. You think crabdad did it. Putting Karkat there. Maybe that was where crabdad was staying, with all the little crabs. You think maybe crabdad didn't know what to do with the now silent troll. How would you deal with someone you'd spent their whole life with and then suddenly they're not that person anymore? A ghost is floating up to you, snapping you out of your thinking. You look at it.

You troll Terezi to see if she had hand in this matter. Then you troll Vriska, sending your curse after her. A while later you hear a noise. You glance out the window. Sollux! You rush outside to hug him and tell him off for leaving Karkat alone. The you notice the tell-tale wisps clinging to him. Vriska was controlling Sollux.
