I’ve gotten a few asks refering to Kurloz and the rest of the dancestors as the “Alpha Trolls”. Now, they aren’t really the Alpha trolls. Let me explain you a thing.

Karkat and his group of trolls are technically the Alpha trolls since they survive into the alpha timeline, but they are called the Beta trolls because they interact with the Beta kids. Got it?

The Beta kids are called the Beta kids because they played the Sburb Beta. The Alpha kids are called the Alpha kids because they played/ are playing the Sburb Alpha. Just check the poster in John/Jane’s room.

To avoid confusion, instead of using beta and alpha use pre-scratch and post-scratch.
