Tier 2 Quadrants

The Extended Quadrant system is divided into three tiers of circles, and this page is dedicated to talking about the second ring or tier of those quadrants. The second ring of the quadrant circle houses twelve (12) new quadrants. We will be explaining the quadrants, going in a clockwise rotation until we've explained them all. They will be sectioned off in this wiki based on where they fall between the regular quadrants.

## Flushed Quadrant

"When one is in a Spriteship, they surround themselves with multiple Matesprite candidates, but does not reproduce with anyone. What a tease."

Spriteship is a quadrant that technically only involves one person definitively, and an unknown amount of other people. A Spriteship is generally what humans refer to as a "playboy", surrounding themself with people who hold flushed feelings for the Sprite but they never reproduce or hold a traditional Matespritship relationship. In Homestuck, Cronus Ampora is probably a really good example of this as he is constantly flirting with everyone (despite the fact that nobody likes him back), and he never reproduces with any of the "candidates" that he surrounds himself with.

"Similar to a Storgiation, except instead of a relationship growing under pressure, the relationship will grow when love is encouraged in others. The success of the Duostorgiating trolls is directly affected by how successful the relationship that they encourage turns out to be."

Duostorgiation is a quadrant that is very similar to that of Storgiation, and it also strikes a resemblance to the quadrant of Matespicism as well. Duostorgiation is a quadrant that involves one person setting up two people or otherwise influencing the two beings to get together. The third person in the relationship, the one hooking them up, is known as the Duostorgiating troll/person. It's almost like a positive version of an Auspistice.

"A very rare time when an Auspistice finds both of their monitored enemies flushed for them. The Monitor must now choose which of their courtiers they will continue on with and which one they will kill. If they do not kill either of the violent lovers, the two may develop an Infinism."

Scalemateship is a quadrant that probably wouldn't be a good fit in human society, because murder is bad. The relationship continues in one of two ways: either the Auspistice keeps their feelings to themselves and continues on in the current relationship, or the Auspistice reveals their feelings to the pitch pair and then must decide which of the two they want to start a flushed relationship with. In reality, the process of a Scalemateship doesn't make much sense because one can continue in both a Matespritship, a Kismesissitude/Infinism, and an Auspisticism, without needing to kill anyone or end any relationships.

## Ashen Quadrant

"When an Auspistice becomes unreliable, an additional Auspistice may become involved in order to monitor the original Auspistice. This is usually done to avoid the development of Infinisms or Scalemateships.

Chromership is a quadrant that basically means that an Auspistice isn't doing enough of a good job in Auspisticing the ashen pair, and they require an Auspistice of their own to continue doing a good job in the quadrant. It's almost like in the human world when a therapist also is seeing a therapist, because it helps the first therapist keep their head on straight and remain good in their job.

"A counter clovership is the opposite of a clovership. It is a group of four trolls who, while usually very friendly or indifferent, will become extremely vicious and violent when the full Counter Clovership comes together. While the members of a Clovership must be kept together, the members of a Counter Clovership must be kept apart at all costs."

Counter-Clovership is a relationship is a group of four trolls/people that despise each other and cannot be in the same vicinity as any of the others due to the harm risk that comes with it. Counter-Clovership can be considered a type of four-way Infinism, and if the relationship is not monitored it could result in serious pain or death even. The participants of a Counter-Clovership may not engage in another relationship with the other members of the quadrant because it could disrupt the flow of the relationship dynamic. All four participants must have pitch feelings for the other three members in the group, or else it won't remain a stable relationship.

"An Infinimositude is an extremely rare and very volatile series of events. The two hateful enemies that make up an Infinism will find themselves monitored by the members of a completely different Infinimositude. The result is something not that different from a Counter-Clovership. Two pairs of trolls who hate the other troll in their pair have to keep the members of the other pair from killing each other. This results in either a brutal bloodbath or a mysterious harmony."

Infimositude is a quadrant that requires two seperate Infinism relationships Auspisticing each other's relationship. This relationship dynamic is difficult to maintain and often ends up in a much more deadly situation. Most Infimositudes do not last more than a few days to a week before it disbands or they kill each other. It bears a resemblance to a Counter-Clovership, and if not taken care of, may switch between the two quadrants.

## Caliginous Quadrant

*Caliginous - Caliginous - Pale*

"Many trolls that are part of a Kissmelegiance are actually part of a Descellegiance. This is when, due to the placebo effect, two trolls will become Kismesissitude because they believe that they are a Kissmelegiance. Unlike a Kissmelegiance which can be long and drawn out, these are short and violent, but they are also stoppable. When these two trolls are convinced that they are in a Descellegiance, they will be able to end their Kismesissitude. However, it is often hard to tell the difference between a potent Kissmelegiance and a light Descellegiance."

Descellegiance is a quadrant that seems very much like the quadrant of Kissmelegiance. In a Descellegiance, two trolls/people believe that they have to form a pitch relationship with one when in reality they do not. It's very possible that the relationship may switch between these two quadrants as the feelings of the participants fluctuate and change, but not always. A Descellegiance often does not last long, maybe only a few days or weeks at most, and most often they require an Auspistice to make sure it doesn't become too violent.

"A Double Agency is when two trolls, who have flushed feelings for one another, both pretend to have black feelings. This tends to happen when the personalities clash, usually competitive trolls. Usually, both trolls will suspect that the other actually has flushed feelings for them but neither is willing to reveal themselves in case their suspicions are wrong."

Double Agency is a quadrant that relies on the basis of two trolls/people having flushed feelings for one another, but they pretend to have pitch feelings instead. Neither of them are willing to reveal their true feelings to each other because they are afraid that their feelings are not reciprocated. This is one relationship that will not vacillate, even if the feelings of the participants fluxuate and change.

"An Insurgence is a group of four Moirails that each feel a powerful romantic and protective love for one another that is harmonious and will not end with bloodshed between the Insurgents. However, they are all destined never to have sex or any form of troll reproduction."

Insurgence is a quadrant that is comprised of four trolls/people that are in a four-way Moirallegience. These four members are completely satisfied in their relationship and they do not require or seek out any sort of Concupiscent relationship.

## Pale Quadrant

*Pale - Pale - Flushed*

"A Constituency is when one troll in a pair believes that they are the Moirail of another troll, but the second troll does not think that this is a Moirallegience."

Constituency is a quadrant that basically relies upon miscommunication between two people. There's not much else that can be said about this one quadrant in particular, other than it's common because individuals do not always communicate to the best of their ability.

"An Envelopment is when a troll intentionally does not reveal their true feelings on who they have powerful red or black feelings for, because they do not want to cause conflict with an existing Matesprit or Kismesis."

Envelopment is a very one sided relationship wherein one person does not reveal their true feelings towards someone because they are afraid to cause distress or chaos to a preexisting relationship. This is a very common quadrant to find oneself in, and the feelings will likely not fade until one reveals their feelings to the recipient.

"This is a situation that is just as rare, if not more rare than an Infimositude, because when one person in a Philiasma dies, the other usually commits suicide immediately. However, when the living troll does not kill themselves, they will always withdraw from the troll romance system entirely and have feelings only of depression and apathy until they die."

Counter Philiasma is a quadrant that takes inspiration and the namesake of a Philiasma, but with a twist. In a Counter Philiasma, one participant will perish by some means and the other participant of the relationship is so distraught by this that they completely remove themself from the troll romance system and they enter a state of Apathy.
