[ It's a strange experience to be subjected to, and Karkat finds he's re-evaluating his opinion on Gamzee by the second. And Vriska. Not to mention himself, for being glad that Terezi feels that she can depend on him. None of it is a pleasant realisation. But that's not what's important here. ]
Terezi, I think it's pretty safe to say that whatever you choose to do will turn out fine. You're too smart not to learn from your mistakes, and even if swinging in the exact opposite direction of an obsessive obscene clown isn't what I'd call the best choice - it's still a fucking whole lot better than trying to get into a relationship that asks too much from you before you're ready!
[ In a gesture that's not a pap, but reassuring all the same, Karkat places a hand on Terezi's shoulder.]
What I'm saying is, be selfish! Take care of yourself first and foremost! Maybe, God I can't believe I'm saying this, maybe Vriska was onto something. Take as much as you need, and give only what you can give.
