...You're the Piano Man

When Karkat's father decides to remarry, Karkat and the Striders are forced to attend. Family tends to bring out the worst in people, and this family is nothing but problems, especially for two lovebirds such as Dave and Karkat. DO NOT READ UNLESS YOUVE READ THE ORIGINAL STRI-DO'S AND DONT'S. This is a sequel to said story and it won't make sense unless you read that first. Its basically the story of their life after high school and the remarriage of Karkat's dad. Enjoy.

Due to an unwanted marriage proposal between Karkat's father and his new fiancée, Mrs. Leijon, Karkat is forced to move into a new house. This unfortunately comes with a new school, and when the star football player starts to get under his skin, he's forced to stoop lower than ever before. ((Haha I suck at descriptions. This is a high school AU. That's basically it))

It's difficult enough for a young mutant prince to choose between the hand of the princess of the sea dwellers and the prince of humans. Add one begrudgingly attractive assassin and a handful of curveballs and you've got yourself one hell of an issue. I know there will be some misconception, but this is not a "Karkat is a highblood now" story. All of that will be explained. Just know that he is still a mutant blood and the rest will come later. Enjoy~

This is my first story, so I am terribly sorry if this is uninteresting/poorly written. Cover credit goes to Ikimaru

[[BEFORE YOU READ: it's been years since this fic has been completed but I've recently begun a revisited/rewritten version of it on AO3 as well as here. Look for it on my page or here's the link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/44269315/chapters/111327910 ]] Karkat mysteriously gets thrown into a universe different than the one he was expecting. The worst part is he was alone. For six long years he's gone, his friends accepted the fact that he might be dead. Everyone's moved on. But suddenly, the same beam of light that took him away, brought him right back, but Karkat isn't the same. He might never be the same.
