I break through the barrier reef Cut through the carbon sea Approaching the shore
I’m here for the tenderness (is that even a word?) and soft kisses and cuddle! And for Dirk’s tattoos. And soft hair. And Jake’s green hands… And, and, and…
stop me. And go read this fic (you know the one, you can’t be here by mistake now…)
Of all things, the only criticism I have is that feferi->sollux was arguably a romantically loaded corpsesmooch as well. More of a sleeping beauty vibe than a princess bride one there, much less dramatic, but not unromantic
The fef/sollux corpsesmooch was romantically loaded, but it was foreshadowing of a potentially romantic relationship, not confirming an already established one.
The distinction Dirk and Jake’s corpsesmooch draws is that by the point of the kiss both characters had already clearly stated they had feelings for one another, and those feelings had been building up between them for at least three years.
It’s presented as analogous to the Rosemary kiss BECAUSE it has all of this pre-established romance behind it, whereas Feferi and Sollux’s kiss, while romantic, is build up to the reveal of their eventual relationship. See what I mean?
since some people don’t have submission boxes open ( @stormsbourne ) and also criticize high fashion ( @stormsbourne )
oh my fucking god I’m blessed?????????????????????????????? I’m so blessed???????????????????? I don’t know what a submission box even is but I’m blessed. thank you so deeply, from the bottom of my heart, for these boys
i just woke up but what a good day to remember that dirkjake is canon and they got married in a small private ceremony surrounded by many robots and lizards
and that rose absolutely demands they let her plan a REAL wedding later
rose finds out about their private lizard wedding and sends them a handmade over the top Congratulations On Your Nuptials card and inside she’s just drawn a single hand flipping them off

karkat and rose forge a bond made under the harsh, terrible fires of “how do we make this wedding a celebration of our dweeby boy in-law fatherbrothers WITHOUT subjecting everyone to fucking puppets and na’vi”
