[Why look, it's our favorite nation!! Looking just a bit more tired than usual.]

So what, is everyone going to this party? Dammit, I thought I finally got away from those stuffy formal gatherings...!

Not like I'm unhappy that the victims are back! Or... something. [... hmph, puffs cheeks a bit totally not tsun] But still... a party? I--...

THE COLORS ARE A CULTURAL THING, I THOUGHT SOMEHOW MOST OF YOU WOULD HAVE PROCESSED THAT EXTREMELY SIMPLE FACT BY NOW. STOP BEING SUCH AN INSENSITIVE FUCKING FRONDSHITTER.

[And no he doesn't realize that you're that one troll he met earlier.]

One of the most annoying cultural things I've seen!

But whatever, I'll just shut my mouth and ignore it if it's not going to be changing anytime soon. [Because if anything, he understands complications of cultural differences.]

Yours is basically normal though, what's with that.

[Oh, Karkat knows it's you, Romano. To be fair, since the symbol on his chest is the same shade of grey as his text, to him it's BLINDINDLY OBVIOUS that he's the asshole from the lobby, I mean seriously how could you NOT pick up on such an obvious cue, idiot.]

WE CHOOSE SYNTAX THAT MATCHES OUR PERSONALITIES. SOME TROLLS NEED TO GO OUT OF THEIR WAY TO BE AS ANNOYING AS POSSIBLE, BUT I HAVE BETTER THINGS TO DO THAN SPRAY SYMBOLS AND NUMBERS AND SHITTY EMOTICONS ALL OVER EVERYTHING.

[text] LOL was about to post this as John :|;;;

[W-WELL MAYBE THE GROCERIES WERE BLOCKING IT, OKAY. YOU AND YOUR ASSUMPTIONS!!!]

Thank God for that.

Then how the fuck do you explain the colors??

[text] that sure would have confused me AND Karkat!

[dungenessmaster]

[MAYBE KARKAT HAS GROCERY-DISAPPEARIFYING SKILLS LIKE ROMANO. HANDY FOR RUDE GESTURES AND IDENTIFICATION PURPOSES!]

WOW, YOU MISSED THOSE EXPLANATIONS TOO? YOU'RE GOOD AT THIS. I DON'T KNOW WHY THEY DON'T LET YOU RUN THINGS AROUND HERE, BECAUSE HOLY SHIT NOTHING GETS PAST YOU.

I'M NOT EXPLAINING THIS MESS AGAIN, SO LISTEN UP. FOR TROLLS, TEXT COLOR USUALLY EQUALS BLOOD COLOR, UNLESS YOU'RE ME AND YOU'RE SMART ENOUGH TO NOTICE THAT THE SYSTEM IS BULLSHIT AND YOU WANT NO PART OF IT. THERE WAS A TIME WHEN IT WAS USED TO SHUFFLE US INTO CASTES AS SOON AS WE HATCHED, BUT IT WAS ALWAYS STUPID AND POINTLESS AND WE DON'T DO THAT ANYMORE.

[middayitaly]

[YES, THEY ARE MASTERS OF GROCERY-DISAPPEARIFYING. MIRACLES, MAN.]

Oh fuck you! Because annoying colors and syntax REALLY make me feel like reading, goddammit!

Wow, you guys must have some really crazy blood, what the hell?! And castes are Middle Age stuff, seriously pointless and outdated.

[spoilers for the end of Homestuck: Gamzee was right all along!]

IT'S NOT THAT HARD TO READ, DUMBASS. ANYONE WITH BASIC LITERACY SKILLS CAN FIGURE OUT WHAT THEY'RE SAYING.

AT LEAST YOU KNOW HOW TO MAKE SENSE SOMETIMES, SO I'LL GIVE YOU A LITTLE CREDIT. DECIDING SOMEONE'S STATUS FOR LIFE BASED ON SOMETHING FIXED BEFORE THEY'RE HATCHED WAS ALWAYS RAVING FROTHY BULLSHIT, AND THAT'S NOT HOW WE DECIDE THINGS ANYMORE.

[middayitaly]

[And they all become juggalos. HAPPY END.]

Anyone with basic sense can see that it's annoying to read either way!

Of course it's bullshit, sounds like the whole racism thing we had back home or whatever.

And you guys HATCH?

[text]

[dungenessmaster]

OF COURSE WE HATCH, WHAT THE FUCK ELSE WOULD WE DO? MAAAGICALLY COME INTO BEING BECAUSE SOME SHITBAGS FROM THE PAST BOUGHT SOME CHUNK OF ROCK OR WON A WAR?

[text]

[middayitaly]

[OKAY HE IS DEFINITELY SCOWLING AT THAT >:(]

Fuck, I just thought you guys would be born like humans!!! You look enough alike to be, I don't know!

[text]

[dungenessmaster]

[you're fun to troll, Romano. this is going to keep happening]

THAT IS THE BIGGEST LOAD OF MUSCLEBEAST LEAVINGS I'VE EVER SEEN IN MY SHORT, ANGRY LIFE. WE DON'T LOOK ANYTHING LIKE HUMANS!

[text]

[middayitaly]

[AND HE DESPISES IT sobbb]

I never said you looked a LOT like them, just ENOUGH! I mean you guys don't really look like some bug or bird or whatever that would normally HATCH, bastard!

[text]

[dungenessmaster]

THAT'S BECAUSE WE'RE NOT BUGS OR BIRDS, BRAIN HERO, WE'RE TROLLS. AT SOME POINT PEOPLE ARE GOING TO FIGURE THAT OUT, BUT HOLY SHIT. IT'S LIKE YOU'RE GOING OUT OF YOUR WAY TO ENSURE THAT TODAY'S NOT THAT FUCKING DAY.

Not really here. Maybe.

[eltercio]

[ Thinks it's so adorable the way these two seem to get along so well. ]

Also not here.

[middayitaly]

[OH SHUT UP SPAIN and also why do you know all of the loudmouthed jerks around here]

SO very not here.

[eltercio]

[ HEY! He's only looking on lovingly! Spain got an earful from Karkat and was adoringly reminded of Romano. ]
