it seemed all creatures did the second time i was alive for unexplaina6le reasons. it was very stran9e.

[riseup]

well, there are a lot of humans.
maybe more than there are trolls?
i'm not sure about that, actually.

[ihateyouetc]

i meant all the other creatures as well, 6i9 and small, human and not-human.
i'm 9lad humans don't have to worry a6out silly thin9s like the hemospectrum.

[riseup]

oh yeah, animals and stuff too.
the way i see it is that even if our blood was a different color, it is made of the same stuff.
just with a little different food dye.
it does not make anyone different, or better, or worse.
haha, but what do i know?

[riseup]

but that is actually not what i wanted to talk to you about!

[ihateyouetc]

as much as i know, if that's how you feel.

[ihateyouetc]

6ut i won't distract you. what is it you wished to speak with me a6out?

[riseup]

uh, i guess my first question is kind of weird.
how are you so nice?
i mean, karkat's nougaty center is not a secret to anyone, but you are nougat on the outside too, it is crazy.
yeah, that was definitely weird.
whatever.
does that mean karkat is going to grow up to be super nice?
haha, somehow i can't picture that.
or maybe you grow up to be a super jerk.
nope, still not picturing it!
i am rambling.

[riseup]

but i guess the blood stuff is important to talk about too, since i am still trying to wrap my head around it.

[ihateyouetc]

i 6elieve he inherited somethin9 i lost
6ut that would 6e a 6it hard for me to explain any further.

[ihateyouetc]

i can only speculate, 6ut it seems our vast differences in attitude may 6e circumstantial.
he and i had very different up6rin9ings
and i'm afraid his may have 6een more difficult than mine.
as i understand it, he had a lusus, while my custodian was a troll
i was very lucky.

[riseup]

so it's like you had a human parent relationship.

[ihateyouetc]

i 6elieve so, althou9h without the male parent fi9ure.

[squidissension]

wwho wwas it thats not in the books either

[ihateyouetc]

insofar as the hemospectrum, you and i share the same pro6lem.
6ut if you have 9uestions, i'll answer them as 6est i can.

[riseup]

all of my questions pretty much start and end with why, which i bet would make them pretty hard to answer.
it is why i haven't bothered any of the trolls i know with it.
also because i know the douchiest ones would jump in and make it weird.
i just don't understand why it needs to exist?
i get that social order is important, that is why we have laws and stuff, but...
it just seems like prejudice and that never ends well.
i have not heard of anyone using it for good reasons, just to make someone feel worse or to justify their shitty behavior.
i don't get it.

[ihateyouetc]

you've addressed several pro6lems i have with the hemospectrum.

[ihateyouetc]

it se9re9ates and 6reeds contempt; sews dissension and discontent.
there's no lo9ical reason for it to exist, yet it persists 6ecause of those who'd rather perpetuate an old tradition rather than discard it like the 9ar6a9e it's worth; no 6etter reason for it aside from "it has always 6een this way" and "it should continue to 6e."

[ihateyouetc]

i'm not certain where it 6e9an, 6ut it 6e9an lon9 6efore my time.

[chainsawed]

Instead They Have A Homosexuality Thing To Worry About
Or So Rumor Has It

[ihateyouetc]

i'm afraid i'm not familiar with that term.

[riseup]

it's not important.

[ihateyouetc]

only a rumor then?

[riseup]

no, definitely not a rumor.

this is really confusin9. humans are confusin9.

[ihateyouetc]

and it's not important?
