The interesting thing about it is that at the first glance it really seems like Kankri’s losing it over nothing. Which, to be fair, he kind of is. Porrim was just being nice to Karkat. But his reaction becomes... actually understandable, given later on we find out that Porrim has no respect for Kankri’s personal boundaries, like trying to touch him, which is the only real instance of us seeing Kankri lose his composure.

And of course the nickname thing, as well as the sweater thing.

And then acts pale toward him at the first opportunity:

An idea he finds uncomfortable. Like any other potential romantic relationship with her.

So while he is overreacting in that one conversation with Karkat present, he’s also doing this, because Porrim apparently never took his “no” for an answer, so he clearly has to repeat himself over and over again.

#it's 2k23 can be finally stop pretending that Porrim is somehow better than the rest of her team?#she's just less openly annoying #and the more attention you pay to her dialogue the worse it gets #like i do think she means well but that doesn't justify harrassing somebody #in case somebody wondered what to call trying to be pale with an unwilling person #you know. pale. that romantic quadrant.#seriously what the fuck is wrong with her #she really saw the guy pretty much have a panic attack and proceeded to do another thing he finds uncomfortable #then again we're talking about Porrim 'HIC did nothing wrong' Maryam #so what do I expect...#kankri vantas #porrim maryam #homestuck #harrasment mention #btw is somebody wonders: everything but the one with 'Sho+o+sh!' is from the 1st openbound #and the 'Sho+o+sh!' one is from ministrife #porrim maryam salt #tho idk if it can be rly called that #i only get to real complaining in the tags #so i guess the tag is for the tags
