Honest question: how serious are you with this? I've sort of had guys who I felt "black" for at times (particularly one of my exes) but it wasn't really a serious thing, just something I played around with in my head. I also describe my relationship with one of my best friends as a non-romantic moirallegiance of sorts...but that also doesn't make much sense if you stop to think about it.

I don't think troll concepts of romance are actually healthy applied to human relationships. I hope you're not applying them really seriously, or if you are, maybe you should re-evaluate and work on it.

Yeah. From what I know about Homestuck troll romances, I'd definitely not want a friend to be in this kind of relationship.

have you read the newest updates? Karkat pretty much defines it as much healthier than any example we ever got in canon. there's even canon John<3<Terezi.

Haven't caught up, no. I keep meaning to but it's a bit overwhelming; I lost track on one of the last big hiatuses and now there's a lot of content to read.

I will eventually. Definitely want to catch up before the finale.

ah, I hope I didn't spoil it too much for you. it has some good bits, including the kismesis stuff, dave & dirk, vriska and so on.

I hope Vriska gets better.

He says "it's supposed to feel fucked up", which doesn't sound like a good fucking idea to me.

I personally think it's just hard to write a healthy romance. A lot of the time most writers don't even think to try.

I was talking more about IRL romance.

OP here: What the other anon said... You should catch up. Vriska is has been absolutely amazing lately, and Hussie says it might be finished 4/13, I think he's 100% done with Arc 7 and 30% on the remaining Arc 6. I'm planning to re-read the whole thing when Mars starts.

Here I uploaded Karkat's explanation for it, it's fairly spoiler-free now since you've been told 'bout Terezi.

I mean, that makes sense. It's one way of sorting through the kinds of feelings and relationships it's possible for people to have; it doesn't have to have any sort of abstract, categorical, empirical truth to be useful as a way of understanding things.

I don't know why you'd want to be black for a person when it is written as so unhealthy in most cases in the comic.

Some of the others I can understand, like the dedicated friendship that comes with a moirail.

most cases of morails aren't written as healthy either though.

Equius<>Nepeta is supposed to be the prime example of it and it's cute enough, but Equius makes everything slightly awkward and creepy, even if Nepeta brings out good in him.

now that we have canon John<3<Terezi there's more appeal to a respectful "rivalmance" than to a over-controlling friendship. although I'm sure that Hussie inserted their relationship exactly his writing was so vague before that fandom thought kismesis HAS to be abusive.

(Anonymous) 2016-02-07 10:58 pm (UTC)(link)
You don't, because that kind of relationship dynamic is unhealthy at best, abusive at worst, and not anything you should actually be seeking out.
