Description Your name is (full name) and you are heading for the ectolab to hang out with your best friend John and your flushcrush Karkat. You were running there because you were late as of 10 minutes ago.
Damn sleep! If you didn't need it you'd be there on time. And don't forget getting dressed, since you were in a hurry you threw on your usual fluffy grey turtleneck, some blue jeans, and a black headband. Although the headband probably wasn't neccisary considering you had your (H/L) (H/C) tied in a ponytail. Your hair flipped around as you ran, almost tripping on your own smooth black boots. You ran in just in time to see a flash of light and Karkat screaming something about the ectomachine and John being an idiot.
When the light vanished you blinked and rubbed your head,
"Aww what the fucking hell happened?" They stared at you dumbstruck. You never cussed! Eh, probably just a side effect.
"What?"
"You never cuss, (Y/N)!" John said in a bit of a shocked tone, and Karkat slightly nodded with a scowl.
"I-it was probably just a side-effect of whatever that god da- thing... happened just now." You corrected yourself and walked toward them.
Karkat immidiatly frowned and turned to John "THIS nooksucker had to press every GOD DAMN botton on the fucking ectomachine!" "AGAIN" John cringed at the volume changes but soon regained his derpy smile.
"But no one got hurt!" "This time." You remarked.

You yawned as you slugged out of bed, you still had a terrible headacke from yesterday. Damn John and his fucking curiosity. AND you still feel like little miss potty mouth!
You groaned and flung your pajamas across the room and threw on the same outfit as yesterday, because you stocked up these clothes in your closet cause I freaking said so.
You don't bother to go to the restroom to brush your hair since you already had your hairbrush here with you. You brush out your (H/L) (H/C) hair and decide to leave it down, though you DO brush in behind your shoulders.
You still aren't fully awake so you rub your eyes and head to the bathroom to brush your teeth.
You take out your toothbrush and your toothpaste and look up into the miror to start brushing.
Wait a minute, humans don't have grey skin. JOHN!!!

-Tiime thkip-

You are now on egbert's front step and are furioisly pounding on the door. How nice of you.
"JOHN OPEN THIS GOD DAMN DOOR BEFORE I BREAK IT THE FUCK DOWN AND SHOVE IT UP YOUR FUCKING ASS!" You screamed while pounding on the door. John soon opened the door, though he was still in his pajamas with his eyes only partially open.
"Geez Karkat do you really need to start cussing this early in the-" John stopped and rubbed his eyes then stared mouth a gape and eyes widened at you.
"(Y/N)! Y-you're gre-" you cut him off with a scowl on your usually smiling face. "Grey? Ya, I fucking noticed!" You felt enraged! But you weren't sure why. John didn't MEAN to make you grey! But still you were, and it was his fault! He HAD to fix this.
John looked a bit nervious and cringed at your un-(Y/N)-like behavior. "I-I really can fix this! I was planning to meet Karkat at the ectolab anyways so we can go now and fix this!" He smiled again.
You rolled your eyes and crossed your arms "you goin' in your PJ's?"
He looked himself over then told you he'd be right back. He better be. He has to fix this.

*--TIMÉ SKÏP--*

You walked into the lab a few seconds after John, you had avoided looking at anyone and everyone. They wouldn't know it was you if they didn't see your face right? Or at least they'd think it was just make-up. Yeah.
Karkat wasn't here yet, that kind of dissapointed you. You at least wanted to see your- excuse me... Karkat first thing. But nope he wasn't here. You looked at John for the first time since the house, he was at the ectomachine trying to fix it from the previous explosion the day before.
"Well, this might take a while to fix actually, uhm. Heh" he laughed nerviously "guess you're stuck like this a while"
You sighed. Perfect news! You get to be grey till your fucktard of a best friend can fix that god damn machine. Juuust perfect. Might as well take a nap, maybe Karkat will be here by the time you wake up. Or better yet, what if the machine is fixed!
"Fine, John. I'm ganna take a nap." You murmured and shut your eyes for some well deserved sleep.

+(holy hell batman! Another time skip!)+

You softly groaned and opened your eyes, only to see your flushcrush standing there, staring at you. As soon as he relized you were awake and he saw you his eyes went wide and he turned with a slight pink on his cheeks to John.
"I thought you said she only had grey skin fuckass!" What was he talking about?
"She doe- GASP!" John dropped a wrench and looked at you. What the hell are they gawking at?!
"JOHN FUCKING FIX THE DAMN MACHINE!" Karkat yelled at John
"I'm trying!" John turned and went back to the machine.
Wait, what were they looking at?
"HEY, what the fuck were you nooksuckers looking at?" You snapped. They turned to you, both expressions of shock spreading across their faces. Then you relized, when did you start talking like Karkat?!
"(Y/N), look at your eyes"
"I can't do that very fuckng well without a miror, John" you hissed, then you saw your reflection in a part of the machine. No. You had troll eyes! And they weren't your normal (E/C) either! They were grey tinted-red eyes!
"W-what the?!" You went wide eyed. Why is this happening?! HOW is this happening?!?!?!
You don't see Karkat coming over to consol you, you ran away too quickly. Running to your house. You could be safe there.
You dove into your covers hoping this was all a dream.

-wake up you lazy ass, time skerp be huuurrrrr-

You opened your eyes and smiled, walking to your miror. Ah, everything would be back to normal now you just knew i- WHAT THE HELL?!?!?!
You have horns! Nubby horns! They resembled Karkat's horns, small, nubby, cute.
You gulped and looked at your once (H/C) hair that was now a dazzling black. You were a troll... NO! THE MACHINE, JOHN MUST HAVE FIXED IT BY NOW!
You ran out your door with warm red tears rolling down your face. You ran smack dab into somwone though.
"S-sorry" you stood up quickly about to run again until you looked up at the stranger who now had their hand on your shoulder. But it wasn't a stranger. It was Karkat, your flushcrush, the last person you wanted to see you like this.
You were about to run when he stopped you and pulled you into a tight, loving embrace.
You sobbed into his chest as he shooshed you and stroked your hair.
"Shhhush, it'll be alright, (Y/N)"
"N-no! No it w-w-won't! I'm a tr-troll now..." more tears seeped into Karkat's sweater, but he could care less. You needed him. And he wouldn't leave you.
"And? What's wrong about being a fucking troll?"
"I-I don't know... n-no one will e-ev-ever look at me the same. M-my friends on e-e-earth will think I'm pro-probably hidious now." You sobbed louder and hugged Karkat closer. You really needed him.
"Why would any nooksucker think that? You're the funniest, nicest, sweetest person ever! Anyone who's met you could tell you that. And you aren't fucking hidious! If anything you're the most beautiful troll I've ever seen!" A bright red blush flood across your face at that last comment. You looked up at Karkat wide-eyed.
"R-really?"
"Yeah! I swear if anyone even fucking ever called you anything less then beautiful, I'd fucking kill that nooksucker myself! Anyone that loved you as much as I do wou-" Karkat stopped and his face flushed bright red to match yours upon realizing his sudden confession.
"Y-you love m-me, Karkat?" Pure wide-eyed joy was present on your face.
"No! i mean yes! I mean- ah fuck it... yeah (Y/N)... I'm flushed for you. I understand that you don't feel the same thou-" you cut him off with a tender lingering kiss, and after the initial shock he kissed you back.
This was the best day of your life. Your flushcrush loved you!
Karkat gingerly brushed his tounge against your bottom lip. You moaned and allowed him to explore your mouth.
You ruffled his hair, carefully avoiding his horns. And he pulled you closer. But alas! A useful demon named air had to fill your lungs!
You broke apart and leaned your head into the crook of his neck. "Flushed for you too, Karkitty"

IN THE DISTANT CORNER OF THE HALL!

John was silently chuckling to himself.
"Guess I'll tell them i fixed the machine later"
He smiled and walked off to put some purple hair-dye in Karkat's shampoo.
