Perfect tone match. Do exactly that.
...except everyone is a knight. That's important.
Which characters were you going to focus on? Your shorts were all over the place. (By which I mean short fiction, not little pants.)

But they're comfy and easy to wear!
Karkat is the intended main character. I was just about to list him as the protagonist but I'm not sure that word actually applies in this case. He's pretty much the only character I need who I haven't written at all yet. Worrying for me.

I found Karkat incredibly challenging when I tried to write him in my Western. A lot gets lost in his tone when you don't have all caps to lean on. He can't actually be yelling everything he says. The dialogue tags get repetitive.
Is he going to be mostly isolated, or interacting with a specific set of people, or rotating around, or what?

He interacts with the larger subset of people. I think the smaller subset is a separate story that would prefer to be some sort of sequel, but I want to be free to write it at the same time.

Wow, I have no idea what that response actually means, beyond that he interacts with people. Congrats on including no information while purportedly answering my question.
Are you trying to give nothing away so as not to bleed creative momentum? 'Cause I want to help, but I want to know moooore.

I meant to not tell you the characters specifically, but I thought I was being informative. Most of the characters (of Homestuck) will be interacting with him and in general with each other. A smaller subset only tangentially intersect the main group and several of those do not encounter Karkat. So he interacts a lot with many characters.

How is your 'I am Tamora Pierce' bookmark working out for you?

What plot? HAHAHAHAHAhaha... ha...
I have ten short story concepts, and the first one a little fleshed out, but not much more than that. The key gap where I don't have much to work with is between 'takes power' and 'discovers cosmic horror'. I've got her dealing with a few wayward heroes, but I'm not entirely sure where to go with that.

What is "Discovers cosmic horrors" like? She goes mad from the revelation? She notices a pattern of their influence on the world? She sees one?
Where is her dad in this period?
Is she trying to increase her power?
