Or: In which Karkat Vantas finally gets to leave his miserable life behind to attend the prestigious Salem University for magical studies.

The Calm Is Terrifying When The Storm Is All You've Known by HappiKatt

Summary
There were two kinds of trolls who went to Earth: rich shitheads with too much money and free time, and desperate assholes who couldn’t survive on Alternia, even with the best efforts of the young Condesce. Karkat hated the planet almost immediately, but with his home planet too dangerous for mutants, he really didn’t have any choice but to hide out on this weird little diurnal planet. At least he’d be safe. Or so he thought, right before blundering his way into an accidental friendship with the son of an anti-troll terrorist.
Slow burn, shifting perspectives; romance really isn't the focus here but it'll still play a significant part; extra content warnings will be posted with each relevant chapter.

Summary
Karkat is a breeder troll, a fate to those who were previously seen as freaks and culled. Now, being born with bright red blood makes him destined to give birth to grubs in place of the extinct Mother Grub. He resents and rebels against his fate. He finds an old decrepit castle which he makes his home and eventually turns it into an orphanage. But trolls were never one to take differences lightly and are determined to put Karkat in his place. They won't take change lightly, especially in times of desperation.
Includes panels. The panels that contain gore are censored with a link to the uncensored version. Also a few NSFW panels that are not censored.Series

Summary
Things are going pretty good for Dave Elizabeth Strider, until his sister sends him a link to a video of an angry boy that basically ruins his chances of being the token straight kid. Meanwhile said Angry Boy is working on juggling irrational homophobes, his future of preaching (or, better yet, just screaming), and dealing with his flustered, clearly gay soulmate.
