Summary
Trying to climb out of a hole that your past dug for you is exhausting. The rocks that you thought were steady crumble beneath your feet, and you fall back down into the dark mud. You don't imagine that you could ever escape. Karkat has been trying to get his life together for two years, but he's been at the same job doing the same menial tasks that he's always done. He's completely resigned to living his life without too much invested emotion. And then, of course, he meets John Egbert.
