i’m so thankful to the davekat girlies who shipped it when it was a crackship. they’re like the silent generation who like fought in wwii so the next generation could have mcdobalds or something. i didnt even realize davekat was supposed to be romantic until the very very very very very last karkat line when he says “i hope he’s ok” or something??? and then i was like ohhhh andrew hussie work. the epilogues is what broke my brain and made me davekatted for life ALDNSKD ITS SUCH..A BEAUTIFUL LOVE STORY!!! the fact they had to wait so long and the fact that dave literally DIES without karkats love is so romantic AHHDAJHD ITS SO DRAMATIC AND ROMANTIC STOP!!! idk how early hussie planned davekat but i’m just glad bc i thibk without karkats love dave would be like… such an irritating bitch ass character
