“In which a young telekinetic brownblood with poor self control, a sheltered jadeblood with anger issues, and a grim indigoblood betrayed by his once-moirail are put on the same laughssassin training team. A comedy of errors about the brownblood’s flushed feelings for the jadeblood, the jadeblood’s flushed feelings for the indigoblood and platonic irritation for the brownblood, and the indigoblood’s platonic disdain for the both of them ensues, provoking black feelings to surge in the brownblood’s thoracic endoskeleton cage. The indigoblood eventually reciprocates, only for the brownblood to flip pale on him etcetera.”

It’s Karkat’s favorite ashen soap opera.

(He uses it to beat into John’s head that ASHEN IS SO A THING THAT YOU CAN SHIP OKAY LOOK AT THEM MEDIATE THE SHIT OUT OF EACH OTHER ahhhh babies. John keeps going ahaha but why don’t the brown one and the purple one just hatekiss already and then Karkat throws another manifesto or three on why that would be (hot, okay, but) UTTERLY disastrous because the brownblood is PALE on the indigo asshole okay but every time he tries to fix him it only pisses off the indigo more, and why it’s so tragic that the brownblood and the jadeblood both jilt each other because she wants him pale and he wants her flushed but she wants them both ashen so much more anyway oh god the silver-gray longing how can you not see this.)

(the non-official but v. pretty symbols, that I found here, are vulpecula, the fox, cepheus, the gardener-king, aquila, the eagle (there was no hawk. sad.), circinus, the drawing compass, pavo, the peacock (no boar! SO SAD.), and corvus, the crow.)
