The Words "Best Friends" Becomes Redefined.
After near a century of abandonment from their home planet, aliens known as “Trolls” have blended perfectly into Earth’s everyday life. They go to school, work, play, and even some mate with humans. The troll society (typically violent, contradictory, and hemophobic,) has mellowed out exponentially, leaving behind the majority of the old customs, despite a few Purple and fuschia bloods clinging to “highblood” titles.
Karkat Vantas, a small troll born with mutated blood (just like the rest of his family), is bullied mercilessly by a group of highblood indigo trolls until one of the indigos’ brother, Gamzee Makara, stands up for him and they form a moiraillegence that lasts well into the highschool years when both of the trolls feel as if they are flushed for one another.
Having progressed their relationship exponentially; Gamzee and Karkat are the happiest they’ve ever been, living together and cherishing the time they have. But what will happen when Karkat’s tormentor, Kurloz decides that Karkat isn’t worthy of his brother and takes it into his hands to make sure Karkat and Gamzee are never happy together ever again?
