IF ZAHHAK ASKS IF YOU'VE SEEN ME, YOU HAVEN'T.
SERIOUSLY, MY LIFE IS ON THE LINE HERE.
I MAY OR MAY NOT HAVE TOLD HIM TO READ 50 SHADES OF GRAY.
AND THEN LENT HIM MY COPY.
WITHOUT TELLING HIM THE REAL PREMISE.
BUT SERIOUSLY.
YOU DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING.

[Dave lets out a heavy sigh and drops his head back a little, before rubbing at his face with his hands. He still doesn't turn around, and it's a long, heavy moment before he speaks.]

Do you think it's unfair to Gretel?

[selfhatred]

[He shrugs, even though he knows Dave probably hasn't turned to look at him. He lifted a foot to rub the back of his shin, thinking the question over.]

Mmm...Gretel's a strong girl. She's not weak, or petty. She might get upset, but she won't hold it against Big Brother dickbear. She'll be happy for him and Hansel, even if it takes her a while. Because she loves them both regardless.

[Dave hesitates another long, long moment, staring down at his shoes.]

I think...I think Big Brother dickbear really could have been happy with Gretel. Picket fence, all that shit. He just. Wouldn't know until he actually gets shot down.

...If he hadn't, you know, caught on fire and died.

[Karkat gives a thoughtful hum.]

What makes you so sure he still couldn't have had that with Hansel?
