Good lord, I hope I'm doing this right.
No wait SHIT I'm supposed to introduce this dramatically
Patronswap
In which the ectosiblings switch patron trolls before the start of the Sburb.
Act One: [I] [II] [III] [IV] [EoA One]
Act Two: [I] [II] [III] [IV]
Reason why I'm posting this here is mainly for some exposure, characterization / writing critique, plot point suggestions, perhaps some in-depth plot or character discussions with my fellow Homestuck fans! Maybe open up user commands about who we should switch to next to keep things FRESH and RELEVANT? I'm not sure. Anywho, act one is just to get your feet wet. Act two will be longer and much more thoroughly planned out.

Re: Patronswap - First Act Complete!
I just want to say that this is amazing and you are beautiful for making it. I was thinking about making something similar, but then I realized, OH WAIT, I don't have the dedication for this kind of project.

Thank you! It took a lot more plot planning than I originally suspected. Originally Posted by Nostalgia Ripoff

Re: Patronswap - First Act Complete!
Next chapter up.
Considering the effort I threw into this damn thing it turned out much shorter than expected.

Kanaya has the best rapping skills, period.

I actually wrote this one backwards just because I needed to use that line so badly. Originally Posted by CJ Miller

Re: Patronswap: II.I - In Which Kanaya Drops It Like Its Hot
This is amazing and I love you. Whatever it is you're are currently doing to make this miracle a thing that exists, please don't stop, for you'd be depriving the universe of some very much needed epicness. Also I'm glad that the troll of whom had the least influence over Kanaya's rapping style was Equius seeing as aside from the remark about mounting Dave and having him kiss her iron-clad boot the slamdown was delightfully void of bestial innuendo and graphic imagery.

Re: Patronswap: II.I - In Which Kanaya Drops It Like Its Hot
Updated!
This chapter was a lot of fun. And recent canon updates have given me a lot more confidence in the way I characterize John. I still feel like I'm making him too abrasive but I'm trying to portray this as an effect of talking to Karkat so much? I'm hoping to ease him up a little as the chapters goes on.
That really means a lot! It's always an honour to learn that a work of mine can draw readers out of their normal zones. Thank you! Originally Posted by Snowmanne

Also because I wanted to foster more of a Kanaya+Tavros connection for future shenanigans but that's another story for a later time.
Thank you all for reading!

Re: Patronswap: II.II - animes aren't cartoons numbnuts.
I have an idea for this: maybe you can expand this beyond just the patron trolls.
Tavros can have a short crush on John and somehow be the reason his Nanna died.
Rose can be the one who drives Gamzee insane (or maybe even some other troll).
Hell, maybe even have Doc talk with John and Dave.

Wow what was that, a three month hiatus?
Holy crickets.
I present a quick update to get everyone back in the mood.
All excellent suggestions! Originally Posted by Snowmanne

Re: Patronswap: II.III - Is that really any way to speak to a lady, John?
Oh god, Doc Creepy Uncle with Dave.
Also maybe this Doc has a penchant for young boys instead?

Leave it to Karkat to be all up about 'h8ing' someone when he's in love with them(See Also: Terezi Pyrope, aka the matespritship most akin to kismesitude).

Re: Patronswap: II.III - Is that really any way to speak to a lady, John?
So I started reading this and I have to say it is really impressive! I think you have a good grasp on the characters and it's fun to read. I haven't caught up yet but I wanted to jump in and say that you had Terezi saying 'kitten' once or twice, and Karkat using 'mouth'. That's all I can find is little things, though. Proofreading type stuff. I would love to critique you more but I just can't see much of anything wrong! It's awesome, you should definitely continue writing.
E: Caught up now!
Did I mention this is a really great story because it is.Last edited by Seven Hundred; 06-05-2012 at 03:35 PM.

Is there a way to have him lead Dave into this quest instead, seeing as Rose's future actions are...let's just say, already predetermined due to certain plot developments.
Or perhaps having him conceive a different role involving Rose would end up being more interesting due to these plot developments, especially considering he's in contact with Terezi and Terezi is Rose's patron troll?
I'll have to think this one over.
Oh, Karkat most certainly hates him as of right now. Future plot developments will spin this hatred on its head, though. Originally Posted by Destruction Dragon 360

- You head back into your block and hit up your computer station. No word from any of your loudmouth pals.
- TA: eheheheheh riight on but let2 2hut our mouth2 a 2econd and talk about thii2 game.
- CG: DID YOU LIKE HER, YOU WINDSOCK HEADED SHITMOUTH.
And of course, Nepeta using the word "kitty".
But perhaps I used mouth too often! Seeing as Karkat does love referencing his troll anatomy all the time.
My Karkat rambles need a little work, hehe. 6_9
Thank you for the review and the concrit!
