#thinking abt sollux not giving a shit for the hemocaste order again#on one hand it makes his dynamic with eridan and feferi funnier knowing he'd only been gauging them by their surface-level personalities#but on the other. yknow when you're the audience following along our main stumbleboy karkat#knowing his over-the-top reactions and neuroticisms stemmed completely from his entire complex around his blood clr#there's something so remarkably pretty abt hussie giving us that hint of sol's stance on the hemospectrum hierarchy#like. *we* know this about sollux bcs hussie gave us that crumb. but its left unclear whether or not karkat does#and so the natural progression of that turns into fanworks portraying karkat revealing his blood to sollux on his own volition#with subsequent sol's reaction of ok alright good to know whatever idc.#it cldve been funny if there were portrayals of sollux actually weirded out or even casteist about it. but. how could that be?#he'd shut down that possibility the moment he wondered what clr was below yellow.#mumblings#idk. its always little things like this that make me weep for them#their relationship is so contained in bits and pieces of high intensity moments#what u see is what u get its just so straightforward. never got the chance to be dragged out longer than it needed to be#their friendship served its purpose well both narration-wise and character-wise. and wrapped up quietly as it finished#i cant help but appreciate that. it feels very preserved and compartmentalized as its own entity#there may not be much but i can hold that memory of them in a little box and revisit that box anytime i wish#the same way ppl get excited when sollux reappears onscreen from the void#the same way ppl get excited when slkt gets an interaction post-canon#the same way karkat gets excited when he sees sollux again#sigh. wish i could write a Thing like theirs. but i cant ill get teary
