In Home is Where the Heart Is, Feferi devised a desperate plan to escape Alternia. Hijack a ship, load it with as many trolls willing to board, and run so far and so fast not even they have any idea where they are going. They crash-land on Earth's surface after a long and bloody voyage. When the story begins the Alternians have more or less been integrated into Los Angeles. But it's not perfect; homeless Alternians wander the streets, prejudice runs rampant, and someone is going around killing trolls and painting complex murals with their blood. Spread across all walks of life from the top of the society to the dirtiest of alleyways the Trolls do their best to survive day to day while humans do their best to adapt to the new additions.

All's Fair and Love and War picks up where the last story left off. This time the danger is much more sinister, going for the defenseless among them. Comatose Aradia has been kidnapped, leading the characters into the complex world of criminal politics against basically everyone's better judgement. Time is running out fast, and there are hints that this kidnapping is about a lot more than money...

Their ship was a refugee ship carrying a quarter million children and young adults ready to settle in almost any environment, but they washed ashore on Earth with no way to get back to where they came from. Civil liberties attorneys successfully lobbied for the Alternians' release from quarantine and in the last two years, the Alternians have become the latest addition to the population of Los Angeles."

The Alternian Nation series, a ''Webcomic/Homestuck'' fanfic by [[http://archiveofourown.org/users/Celyn_Brum/pseuds/celynBrum celynBrum]], partially based on [[Series/AlienNation]]. It begins with [[http://archiveofourown.org/works/371230/chapters/604939 Home Is Where The Heart Is]], and is currently ongoing.

Author's synopsis: "An immense saucer descending from the clouds and impacting the ground, as the press and through them the people of Earth looked on in shock and awe. That was the scene in California's Mohave desert two years ago today: the historic first view of the Alternian ship upon its dramatic arrival. Their ship was a refugee ship carrying a quarter million children and young adults ready to settle in almost any environment, but they washed ashore on Earth with no way to get back to where they came from. Civil liberties attorneys successfully lobbied for the Alternians' release from quarantine and in the last two years, the Alternians have become the latest addition to the population of Los Angeles."

* ReluctantPsycho: Gamzee.
* StreetUrchin: Karkat and Gamzee, for most of the first fic.
