Kismesis?
Rose was alone in her room. Kanaya was on a meeting with other trolls from the jade-caste and they were arranging that trolls with other blood colours would be allowed to care for the virgin mothergrubs and the troll grubs amongst other things. The decision to slowly disband the caste-system was not fast enough for some trolls who were enslaved by it but disbanding the entire system on the spot would only bring great chaos with it. Trolls from the other castes yearned for work in profession they weren’t allowed to enter in the past.
Also Feferi’s aim to reform the Alternian system into one that’s more like the Beforian had to be rejected after the flaws of that system were pointed out to her.
// She always had the best in mind for everyone. People with power should never abuse said power and try to do the best for the people under them. But turning all the low bloods into wards of the state and never giving them the freedom to be independent was also a bad idea. Their lives may be shorter but that didn't mean that the high bloods would be suited best for caring for them until they die.//
Rose tried to distract herself with those thoughts but it lead her again and again back to Kanaya. What was her secret activity? If it really was a kismesis then Rose was worried. What if the kismesis was as bad being a black-partner as Gamzee once was? Or if her black partner was in some way better than herself and she Kanaya would rather stay with that person than with her. The idea of only being the red lover and she living together with her black lover was not a nice one in her head.
Rose had never considered the possibility that Kanaya would prefer to live with one of her other quadrants one day.
//One of the quadrants will draw the short stick. But Kanaya always liked the red quadrant the most, at least this is what I thought. Her feelings about quadrants could still change.//
Rose decided against drama, against waiting and against not saying anything. She would confront her red flushed love and her kismesis, moirail or the caliginous couple she was auspistice of.
