Summary
The flower—the flower, it's . . . it's delicacy and strength. There's an imperceptible fragility to the boldness of the color. It looks loud, out there and brave, it looks like passion and heat, but a cooler, more human kind of heat. It's striped with a paler version of itself that emanates an ethereal kind of refreshing springtime feeling. It is, to put it in a nutshell, fucking beautiful.
In which you only see color once you meet your soulmate, and the first color you see is the same as your soulmate's eyes.- Language:

Summary
At three in the morning, you wake from a comfortable slumber beside your husband and bolt into the bathroom to throw up, shaky and sweaty and fucking miserable. You shouldn’t even be awake right now and this is already the worst day of all time. You have about a thousand prayers and apologies you need to toss at various nonexistent gods to make this end quickly.
“Oh my god,” Karkat says from the doorway, apparently having woken at the sound of your distress. One look at his face tells you he is somewhere between passing out and screaming. “I’m calling 911.”
---
Or, the fic in which Dave gets the flu for the first time since before the game and Karkat takes care of him.

Summary
Karkat used to think a lot about destiny, or about fate. Grand purpose, or untimely death. He was always anchored, as if by a rope, to some nebulous point in time, dragging himself forward, hand over hand, to reach it.
Worrying about the future comes naturally to him. Loving the present, though.
That's what Dave is for.

Summary
Karkat's head’s tilted back, his hair the neatest it ever gets. You can’t see his face from here, but you can imagine his expression: still composed, still calm, his eyes closed and his mouth shut with his breath rising and falling just a little faster than usual, the tiniest of blushes whispering across his freckles. You grin to yourself, taking a silent step forward. You’re going to wreck him until he can’t even speak.

Summary
*Dave/Karkat* The closeness with Karkat meant everything to Dave, in ways he could barely explain to himself, let alone voice out loud, and it was enough to have that, to have Karkat’s friendship and his trust, that to have anything else, to want anything else, sounded almost greedy. The thought had never even crossed his mind, so he hadn’t even realised how much he’d wanted that something else.

“Manage to escape?” Ronan drawls, melting out of the crowd to join them. “Sargent’s stuck talking to that asshole about climate control,” he says gleefully, jerking his head towards the back wall where Blue is gesturing wildly up at a man with a goatee and a grimace.
