The HS cast living as disguised normal people in Earth C au is so funny to me because, I think most of them could come off as just some guy, maybe a little weird or really excentrict, but nothing that could make you think ''Oh, theyre actually the disguised gods of Earth C!!!'' (maybe with the exception of Calliope, rip)
But then they would drop the most insane shit out of nowhere, Jane is talking with her coworker and how one time she was checking out the mail and it exploded because an assasin planted a bomb on it and her coworker would look at her horrified, only for Jane to go ''HoHoHo Joking :B!'' and just go about her day and the coworker
Or Karkat takes his kid to a doctor check up because he has to be up to date in the vaccines and he would be like ''I DON'T GET WHY WE HAVE TO COME UP ALL THE WAY HERE FOR THIS, WHEN I WAS HIS AGE I PUT ALL THE VACCINES BY MYSELF!'' and the doctor justs freezes and be like ''Sorry, could you repeat that?'' and he would and they just stare at eachother in silent
Karkat tends to be very private about his life, but not mentioning that he became a foster parent to his friends until they came to visit him was another level of bullshit
Though in hindsight, him asking for parenting tips and what kids like for their rooms make more sense now
LOOK look i know it would probably be never in character but the idea of Karkat being a spoiling father is just SO funny to me JFJSJD like he is this 40th year old douchebag with the biggest frown on his face and getting early grey hairs from all the stress he gets and you think you have this dude pretty read on
Then he presents you to his kids and he is like the biggest Teddy bear to them, he fucking spoils them so much, he fucking loves them so much he will not take criticism THOSE ARE HIS BABIES and the "babies" are in fact two teenagers and a kid
Karkat getting banned by his kids from checking their height in the wall because everytime he gets teary eyes and goes 🥺 and is starting to get annoying for them lmaoo
Why’d Dave leave in your au? What are the kids reactions to him?
He had an
Okey Dave leaved like, three/four years before Karkat fostered Luis, basically, Sburb trauma/Becoming a God at 13 and realizing your semi-immortal trauma is what happened
Dave and Karkat had a pretty good relationship for the most part, but Dave was starting to feel uncomfortable about being a God and he was starting to wonder if he was even human anymore, it didnt help that he found out that Karkat wouldnt want to become immortal with him and everything went to trash from there, Karkat's unresolved guilt and trauma also started to affect his attitude and their relationship starting to went downhill over the years
At the end Dave decided he needed to be left alone and think about what being a God meant and left, he cut contact with almost everyone because he just wanted to think for a while
Anyway, 6 years passed since he left and he wanted to apologize to Karkat for just, leaving out of nowhere and
They dont really care about Dave at first, they didnt really find out that he was Karkat's ex until much later, they saw him as ''aunt's rose lame brother'' and the babysitter and make his life hell lmao
I always imagines Karkat as one of those adults who says stuff like "IN THE OLD DAYS HE HAD TO HIDE IN THE DIRT TO SURVIVE" and how "HE USED TO HUNT FOR HIS FOOD LIKE A REAL TROLL" or whatever and his kids obviously think that he is exaggerating or lying about some stuff but then they found out he is from Alternia and theyre like "Wait"
