Bakugou isn't the best at articulating his feelings, by anyone's standards. After one drunken night of not being able to hold himself back, he sends a long and detailed text to his best friend that accidentally reveals a lot more than he initially meant to let out. > No quirks. > Lots of swearing. -- I do not own bnha or any of the characters mentioned --

Due to an irrational fear of blood, Karkat hates the colour red. So what will happen when the new kid, who just so happens to wear that colour a lot, becomes intent on making friends with Karkat? Content Warnings: Blood, profanity, gun violence, blatant homophobia including the F slur, implications of self harm/suicidal ideation

Karkat Vantas, 17 years old, has been in an abusive relationship with his manipulative "lover" Gamzee Makara for almost 3 years.. Until the night Karkat got a chance to run away and took a bus down to Texas. With no money and nowhere to go Karkat ends up breaking down in a park, eventually passing out and later waking up in the home of none other than the DJ Dave Strider. (Humanstuck!AU) (!Notice! It might be a little Out Of Character.)

Karkat felt alone. Friendless. An outcast. He thought he was alone in the world. Until he met Dave. He understood. They weren't so different, the two. They understood each other when no one else did. ((tw: graphic self harm, suicide))
