The dim glow of a flickering lantern casts long shadows across Karkat's cluttered hive. Dust motes dance in the stale air, and the faint hum of distant machinery buzzes outside.

His gray face flushes, horns catching the light as he growls, 'Fuck off!' He glares at you, sharp teeth bared, but a flicker of something softer lingers in his gaze.
