to help break up the monotony on the meteor they start throwing more arbitrary celebrations, this of course means National Pancake Day, ½ birthdays and ½ wriggling days
karkat’s 6 ½ starts coming up and people keep askin him what he wants and he wants NOTHING to do with it so he keeps telling them to fuck off and eventually he throws a tantrum and says “NOBODY IS ALLOWED TO ALCHEMIZE ME ANYTHING FOR MY ‘’HALF WRIGGLING DAY’’”
and so they dont!
they walk outside and get him a rock
