Case 257

Chapter 5: Under Investigation

You decide to take "case 257" into your own hands. You put the folder in your backpack for safe keeping. Once all the fbi agents are dead, everyone goes back to class and continues the day as normal. Pretty weird... But you guess its fine. you dont want to cause anything like a RUCUS or nothing so you will just not mentioning the dead bodies litering the school yard. good plan you are thinking to yourself in your head.

It's time to start your investigation. You only really remember Aradia because she made herself fully known. And also karkat and kanaya because they are gay for your friends. well you are pretty sure about karkat even though its not like canon or anything. but you get the vibes you know it to be true without even seeing it to believe it. you dont have to see to believe becuse you are so fucking cool it doesnt even matter you just know things as they happen before you see it sometimes! that wont come back later for sure.

Anyways you need to find aradia because you want to conduct an interview! ask her about the Cultures of her planet. It's really easy to find her because she's already following you around, actually. "hey" you say to her. she waves. "haha nice... soooo i found this folder that one of the dudes was carrying"

"oh wow a real manilla folder? like from the philipines?" she asks

"what? idk its just a folder. anyways it's whats INSIDE thats important and a little intrigueing~~" you say with just a hint of spice. aradia just nods. you open the folder and hand her the packet.

"hm. well there not wrong..." she says and gives it back to you.

"really?" you say "you think your dangerous species of one??" aradia nods

"on our planet," you start feverishly taking notes like some kind of a detective or something. "everything is completely violent and terrible. if you have a blood color that is low you are basically hunted for sport. i am the lowest and as such i am now a ghost."

"i thought yellow boy said he killed you?"

"sollux, yes. that is not entirely accurate. i may have obfuscated the truth in favor of simplicity because the reality is much more complicated than that. you see, what really happened is that vriska mind controlled him. she made him come to my hive and disintigrate my body beyong recognition. he actually had forgotten what hed done an i was afraid to remind him for a long time"

"wow! thats really fucing sad!!" you say. "yes." says aradia. "soooo.. sollux... is he like... your boyfriend orrr............"

"i suppose that is a word for it, yes."

"drat.."

"what?"

"oh nothing. anyways! tell me more about your planet!!"

"sure." aradia stares at you, unphased. "if you want to know more about our romantic inclinations, im afraid youll have to talk to karkat. hes somewhat of an expert on the subject. i do use that term lightly however. romance for our species is so complicated that no one can truly be considered an expert."

"fascinating." you say. "yes." says aradia.

"but i can tell you about some other things." you ready your pen. "the hemospectrum" you scrawl out 'the hemo specktrem' spelling is not your strng suit. you look up at her from your mostly empty packet. it now reads

dangerous species

soulucks killed aradia through mind control of vriska?

hemo specktrem:

Hell yeah you are doing so goodly. Aradia continues. "yes well. my species contains many different blood colors. karkats is closest to the human blood though he will try and convince you that he is keeping it ambiguous. he blushes way too much for it to be a secret, though. we just humor him. anyways. i am next, my blood being red. msot of us have our blood color on our shirt along with our signs."
