Brainbent/YMMV


 * Dude, Not Funny: When the AU first started, it was inundated with an absolute torrent of White Knighting denouncing it for being insensitive to those with mental illness... not at all realising that the author themselves has such problems and that's what inspired them to do it in the first place. As soon as it actually got anywhere, though, these complaints all but disappeared once it was proven that the AU does indeed know its shit.
 * Ho Yay: Nepeta ships Karkat and Sollux. Sollux canonically goes both ways and has stated that Karkat is hot, and Karkat's found himself thinking about Sollux naked.
 * John also thinks he may have had a bit of a Stupid Sexy Flanders reaction to Karkat and his puppy dog eyes.
 * Les Yay: Both Nepeta and Sollux ship Kanaya and Rose. Kanaya has an ex-girlfriend and has talked rather enthusiastically about how nice roses taste, and talking with Kanaya took up most of Rose's response to an anon's question about whether Rose had a crush on a resident.
 * World of Woobie: ...It's about a mental hospital. The only people who don't have Woobie moments are the staff, and even then WV and Tavros were Woobies in their backstories.
 * Jerkass Woobie: Karkat is more Woobie and less Jerkass, but Vriska...hoo boy...
