You Are Likely Correct In Believing That A Follow Up Might Be Appropriate
I think I got more or less the basic idea. Though some of it seems a little strange to me. But, that could just be me. I was offered some books to read, so, maybe it will help a little?
But other than the one, I think the rest more or less made sense.
I Assure You That All Humans Who Have Encountered Our Romance System Have Expressed Similar Confusion
I Hope That The Books Will Help If You Need Any Explanations For Anything You Dont Recognize In The Books Then Either Of Us Can Explain
[Kanaya silently hopes that Komaeda was given any of the trashy novels. Karkat's taste is questionable at times.... not that she has much room to judge.]
Based On Previous Reactions Im Going To Presume That The One That Didnt Make Sense Was Kismesissitude
That is correct. I can understand having complicated feelings in regard to a nemesis. But... I don't really understand why you would ever want to kiss someone you hate. Though it's not like those sorts of things don't exist in human culture, but, it's not considered normal.

But Yes I Have Seen Some Examples In Human Culture Both Good And Bad
It may be that we simply do not categorize all of these things under romance, and that is where it seems confusing to us. We have rivalries, and friendships that are so close as to make a person more of a family member than anything.
But then I might be wrong. um not exactly an expert on relationships, of any kind. I spent most my life avoiding them.
That's what's a little bit hard to figure out. I can only assume that you want to pursue some sort of relationship with me. At least, that would be the fair assumption so far.
That Would Be Correct In The Pale Quadrant Specifically If That Would Be Alright I Would Like To Enter Into A Moirailship With You If That Is An Acceptable Arrangement You Are An Interesting Person And I Truly Believe That You Are A Good Person At Heart I Enjoy Our Conversations And Find Your Ideas On Hope To Be Fascinating And Ones I Can Agree On To An Extent I Want To Help You Refine And Better Define What Exactly True Hope Is And Be Able To Better Convey The Idea To Others I Wish To See The Excited Look You Get When Presented With A Puzzle More And To Be There To Refute Your Negative Opinions About Yourself I Wish To Have Long Conversations About Your Emotional State And Feelings And Protect You From Yourself And Others I Am Rambling Now But I Really Do Like You Nagito I Understand That A Moirailship Is Probably Strange And Foreign To You I Do Not Wish This To Come Between Our Friendship If You Do Not Reciprocate My Feelings
[Oh god she actually did it. Wait shit did she ramble too much. Oh god what if she scared him off. Excuse her as she starts gripping a poor pillow far too tightly]
Since you have yet to die, and seem rather hearty, I don't think it would be right to refuse. I might not quite understand the depths of this, but, I do appreciate our interactions. I am quite sure you have been my first friend here.
[Though, it seemed like a lot of build up for something like that. But he had to remind himself this was sort of like a love confession for them? Or something? Though could he really judge? It wasn't like he didn't do that himself... and had less reason to make it that way.]
[It takes a long moment for Kanaya to realize she is reading his response correctly and another to realize she's ripped the poor pillow she was gripping. She quickly types out a response.] I Really Appreciate That You Are Willing To Do This If There Are Any Questions You Have On The Conduct Of Moirailship Then Ask Away I Am Glad That I Was Your First Friend On Base
I suppose I have one question. If there was someone else you wanted as a friend, but really that word is far too casual to really describe what it was, but you decide that's the best that can be done, is that a betrayal?
Really friend isn't the right word at all.
It's hard to describe. But, I want to make sure I don't do anything to offend or upset, since I'm still a little fuzzy on the rules.
It May Depend On The Context Like Do You Feel That You Can Confide Absolutely Everything On Your Mind And Otherwise With Full Trust
As Your Moirail I Am The One You Are Able To Share All Your Emotions And Feelings With As Working Out Solutions To Issues Or Emotional Crisis Can Become Rather Difficult If Any Pertaining Details Are Omitted
I Suppose One Way Of Putting It Is That The Difference Between A Moirail And Close Friend Is That The Moirail Is The One You Are Able To Confide Secrets With
Of Course There Is More But This Is Probably The Easiest Way To Tell
I never thought about talking to someone before about finding solutions to emotional things. They are someone I trust, but I wouldn't confide in them with such things. In fact, it's those sorts of things I can't talk about the most with them. To share any of it would be asking too much.
Considering that, then, I think everything should be fine.

You Should Love To Hate Them In That While They Are An Annoyance Or As They Say Pain In Your Side Your Life Would Feel More Empty Without Them
So While You Fight Them Through Petty Insults Verbal Banter Literal Fighting Elaborate Schemes Or Proxies You Should Not Wish To Irreversibly Harm Them As One Party Being Crippled Or Incapacitated Would Kill The Challenge
