Hello.

This is The Knight.

I wish to talk about families.

What is your family like? Do you have siblings? I have many siblings. More siblings than there are moonblessed. One of them is here with me. They are also a knight. They were one long before I was, and they are very good at it.

I have a child. They were not born by mating, as humans do, but by a dance with myself and my friend Grimm. It was part of an important ritual.

My Father is a King. My Mother is a Tree. Also a Queen.

That is all of my family. Please tell me about yours.

IT SPITS IN THE FACE OF EVOLUTION.

FIRST OF ALL.
THEY ONLY FORM SINGLE BREEDING PAIRS.
BECAUSE THEY ONLY FEEL ONE KIND OF ROMANCE.
NO, NOT ONE KIND OF MATING FONDNESS.
ONE. KIND. OF ROMANCE.
AND THEIR REPRODUCTIVE ORGANS ARE GENDER SPECIFIC SO THEY ARE BOXED IN.
I GUESS HALF OF THEIR POPULATION CAN EAT SHIT AND BE PERMA-VIRGINS.

ALSO. HOW GODDAMN STUPID IS THE PARASITIC PREGNANCY THING????
IT IS ONLY USUALLY ONE CHILD AND IT ABSOLUTELY WRECKS THE FEMALE.
DID YOU KNOW THAT THEY DIE SOMETIMES TOO????
AND THEIR GRUBS DON'T EVEN HAVE TEETH SO ALL THEY DO IS SCREAM AND SHIT THEMSELVES AND BE HAND FED BECAUSE THEY WOULD DIE.

HUMAN MATING IS A FUCKING JOKE.


[ Clearly he has a lot of Feelings about this particular topic. ]

CONSIDERING MY RACE IS COMPARABLE TO INSECTS THAT MAKES SENSE.
I HAVEN'T MET ANY OTHER SPECIES WITH THE REPRODUCTIVE EFFECIENCY OF OUR BROODING CAVERNS.


[ Oh. That comment was... Kind. For reasons this stranger wouldn't even know. It gave Karkat reason to pause. ]

YOU DON'T KNOW ME WELL ENOUGH TO SAY THAT BUT THANKS.
I HAD SOME PICTURES OF MY LUSUS ON MY HUSKTOP SO.
