Damn you. I've been successfully telling myself for the past few days that I didn't have time to do this, that I hadn't been in the fandom anywhere near long enough or thoroughly enough, that I had WIPs to work on, that I'd sit it out this year and see how it went, and then Karkat<3<Karkat showed up on the team list and I thought, maybe I do have time to write some funny Karkat<3<Karkat after all! And then I signed up for it. I was worried about verbosity too, since apparently we're limited to 3k words, but when our venue with this pairing is probably limited to memos and dream bubbles, it might be less of a problem.
