haggady asked: Not sure if it's been discussed, but this Karkat line in Meenahquest always stuck with me: "You don't even need to try to be the good person you already are." Any thoughts? Doesn't this seem to contradict the idea that maturity is something to strive for and struggle towards? Karkat is saying you can succeed if you stop fighting yourself

I dunno if that’s necessarily a bad thought for Karkat to have. Saying it to Terezi is a minor tragedy, though.

I’ll have to think about this some more as I work on Breath and Blood. Might not have time for a huge analysis. I seem to recall lildurandal having such a post already but I can’t find it.
