admire your swag posters and reflect on the important people in your life


FIRST THINGS FIRST: the posters.

Your collection of posters is just about the only personalization you can afford to display in your room; any more and Dad would get a little antsy. In light of that, you made sure to display allegiance to the films and television shows that inspire you the most and mean the most to you: THE TROLL DARK KNIGHT, its title truncated for the purposes of this post, a gripping action-romance film following the doomed blackrom between Troll Bruce Wayne and a Highblood gone mad; THE THRESH PRINCE, the classic tale of an up-and-coming Threshecutioner; you think you’ve even got a tribute to one of Troll Nicholas Sparks’ books-turned-film around here somewhere.

You have exquisite tastes. Only the finest of Alternian productions, both from the Homeworld and from elsewhere in the Empire, touch your refined cinematic palette; even fewer manage to woo their way into your cardio-muscle and on to the walls of your respiteblock.

That’s why you treasure one poster in particular.

Wherein a mobster is ordered to kidnap the mentally challenged (and therefore scheduled to be eventually culled) lusus of a legislacerator in an attempt to save a mob boss from being killed by the hands of His Honorable Tyranny; but the troll who hired him does not trust him to get the job done, and an attractive female assassin who expresses exclusive interest in other female trolls is hired to assist; romantic tension ensues; several cringe-inducing lines are uttered; a turkey is briefly mentioned; …

The title is far too long to recite (although you feel it’s important to note that you definitely have it committed to memory). Most everyone just calls it TROLL GIGLI.

You’d be hard-pressed to name any given work of media your favorite, per se, but Troll Gigli definitely resides in the upper echelons of your heart. You had long found yourself unable to resist the exploits of the heroic J-LOBLOOD as she fought her way up the blood caste, be it through romantic comedies or her own take on the ancient Alternian arts of slam poetry, but it wasn’t until she entered the red quadrant with a highblood of all things that she truly secured her place in your heart.

You really love that movie.

shave



NEVER. If your extensive FILM COLLECTION has taught you anything, it is that facial hair makes you look not just RUGGED but also like a BORN LEADER. Your newfound facial hair is one of your MOST PRIZED POSSESSIONS. You would never part with it so easily.

Meow like a cat and pee in the corner.



NO. That’s DUMB. Whoever thought of that is DUMB. You do, however, consider meowing like a cat in the future — no, wait, no you don’t. You don’t do any of that IRONIC STUFF, and plus Nepeta would FLIP HER CATNIP and that is probably one of the last things you need.

You are KARKAT VANTAS. You are something like EIGHT SWEEPS OLD, and you spent 6 of those sweeps in the care of one SPADES SLICK.

Yeah, that’s right. THE SPADES SLICK.

Of course, you hardly spend any time with your dad nowadays. He’s too busy doing IMPORTANT MOBSTER STUFF. The only times the two of you talk at length are when you are discussing CRITICAL JOBS and planning PROFITABLE HEISTS.

Your dad just stalked off to the docks to prevent a mutiny. Standard day in the life of the carapace who runs Midnight City. You are going to become JUST AS RUTHLESS as him some day, and some day soon, at that. You already spend most of your time prowling the back-alleys, learning the ins and outs of the scum that feed off the underbelly of the city. Some day it will be you who keeps the streets in check, you and you alone who reminds them to whom the city belongs. Nobody else could do it, besides maybe your old man. YOU and YOU ALONE have the incredible swath of PRIORITIZATION AND COMMAND SKILLS required.

You are a HATCHED LEADER and you KNOW IT.

Right now, uh. Well. It’s your DAY OFF or something, you guess. Yes, it comes only once in a blue moon, a rare day of leisure, a sparsely-savored moment of relaxation from the tough job of being THE PRINCE OF MIDNIGHT CITY.

At least, that’s what you tell everyone, anyway.

What will you do?

It seems you have chosen GREY as the next chapter to play. Before we embark, there are a few things you should know…

First off, from now on every post will be tagged with its appropriate chapter number as well as other relevant tags. There will also be a tags page linked to in the sidebar sometime in the next day or so, serving as a handy table of contents.

Secondly, and more importantly: since this is indeed a FAN ADVENTURE, there will, from time to time, be chances for you, the readers, to participate! Just like how you voted on the chapter color, you may occasionally be called upon to give our narrators a bit of guidance.
So, if a post ever has replies enabled, feel free to offer your advice, whether it be in replies, reblogs, or even an ask!

Chapter 1 will begin shortly…

Congratulations on completing the PROLOGUE CHAPTER of NIGHTCHARGED!
In doing so, you have unlocked the ability to PEER THROUGH THE FOURTH WALL for a brief moment and receive a MESSAGE from the author(s)!

Hello everyone! The prologue chapter took some time longer than we had originally planned, mostly due to unforeseen real-life circumstances, but now things should be moving forward at a more predictable pace (key word: should). We apologize for any delays, of course!

How quaint!
