WHO| Karkat, the Signless and YOU!
WHAT| Mutant camping, and food sharing if anyone's hungry
WHEN| All through week one
WHERE| Various less-shitty houses around the residential area
WARNINGS| Nothing as of yet; will be updated or marked in-thread
For the first week, Karkat and the Signless wander the rows of houses. Many of them are empty of anything useful, but occasionally they find a can or two to add to their small stock of rations. In a few of them they find bugs hiding somewhere dark like they found in the first one, and on those nights they have to worry at least a little less about running out of food. Once they even manage to trap and take down one of the dogs -- it isn't exactly appetizing, but cooking it as thoroughly as Signless insists on to make sure it's safe to eat masks at least some of the taste.
Mostly, they use the (less dilapidated) houses with fireplaces as overnight camps. The faint glow of their fire can be seen through the grimy windows, especially when it gets dark.
[As a note, the mods have said humans probably shouldn't eat bugs as they'll suffer pretty bad side-effects. If your non-troll character shows up and wants some of their food, it's probably best to have it happen on dog night.]

"Of course I don't understand. The whole idea is complete BS. You said he lived many sweeps before us right? Seeing how nothing has changed, it would seem his 'Stand There and Take It' method didn't work out so well. I don't know what wiggler fantasy land he filled your pan with Vantas but you must have gotten soft. You need trolls like me. Ones that aren't afraid to make the tough choices and get their hands dirty regardless of what others might think of them. I'll give you a week before you come crawling to me for help." She finished with a flip of her long black hair.
Vriska could take the hint, her presence was no longer welcomed. She pushed off the floor and wrapped the eight feet of chain back around her right forearm. Pausing by Signless she gazed down at their grubs.
"I don't need your pity." She spat as she turned on the balls of her heels and marched dramatically out of the room and back out into the fog.
When she knew she was out of sight she paused and placed a hand to her belly. Man... she was really hungry. She was going to regret this, she just knew it........ But no! Making a point here! She was strong. She didn't need anyone's help. Clinching her fist she kept walked until the light of their fire was swallowed up by the fog.
