Nepeta has completed all of her tasks in her portion of the game and goes to confront her Denizen, Psyche. Psyche declines to fight Nepeta, but offers instead to give Nepeta an important task. As the Hero of Heart, Nepeta must ship all 12 of her fellow trolls (including herself) until they each have a [[OfficialCouple matesprit]] and a [[HeterosexualLifePartners moi]][[PlatonicLifePartners rail.]] Psyche reveals that they're in a doomed timeline, but offers to keep the timeline from being destroyed like the other doomed timelines while Nepeta completes her task, and that this timeline can even exist permanently if Nepeta succeeds. Psyche has 3 conditions: 1) Nepeta must only use her heart powers to guide, not force, her fellow trolls into relationships, 2) she must tell no one why she's doing this, and 3) she must save the matespritship for herself and the boy she loves, Karkat, for last, and tell no one of her feelings for him until it's time.
So Nepeta posts a memo she calls "The Shipping Wall". [[AlphaBitch Vriska]] immediately shows up to mock and laugh at her attempts to ship everybody, saying Karkat would go ballistic over it. But Karkat shows up and actually approves of the idea, mainly because he's spent a week having to put up with everybody's relationship problems, and is so sick of it he's more than eager to foist the task onto Nepeta. He even orders her to ship Vriska first, mainly to keep every memo from devolving into [[ItsAllAboutMe Vriskachat.]]

This Nepeta Quest 2012 is one of the longest Homestuck fanfics out there at 31 chapters and nearly 500,000 words. It's length is justified because while Nepeta is the main character, all 12 trolls have important roles to play, and all 12 of them will have all 4 of their quadrants filled. This means no fewer than 22 different relationships (6 moirallegiances, 6 matespritships, 6 kismesissitudes, and 4 auspistices) will be explored in this DoorStopper of a tale, with only one of them - the moirallegiance of Nepeta/Equius - is stable from the start. According to the author, there were just two epilogue chapters remaining, though the story has been marked as 'completed' since 2013.

Just as she's about to in her pesterlog she types "not the right time" in familiar pink typeface of Psyche's lines from Chapter 1. Nepeta's confusion after that suggests that at that moment, Psyche briefly possessed Nepeta to keep her from breaking one of her three conditions.

* AccidentalAimingSkills: [[spoiler:Feferi]] helps Equius fire his first successful arrow from a bow. [[BrickJoke A little while later]], it punches through a wall and straight through Vriska's knee. ''On the other side of the Medium''.
* {{Adorkable}}: How Terezi feels for Eridan.
* AliensMadeThemDoIt: Double Subverted. Psyche's rules state that Nepeta can't force the trolls to fall in love or tell anyone that their lives are on the line. On the other hand, Nepeta knows that if she doesn't ship everyone, Psyche will allow their timeline to fall out of existence, so at the very least this trope applies to her.

* ContinuityNod: Some of the story directions from the original are mentioned in the first chapter, such as Nepeta's shipping sweeps, and Chapter 2 has Aradia straight up dump the fact that they're in a doomed timeline rather than spending half the story investigating it.
* TamerAndChaster: One of the reboot's objectives. [=childishGambino=] felt that at times the original story got a little ''too'' smutty, considering that by the end of it all of these troll kids - worth reminding that the equivalent human age is 13 - were casually talking about having sex and listing all their kinks.

This Nepeta Quest 2012 is one of the longest Homestuck fanfics out there and at currently 31 chapters and nearly 500,000 words is STILL a WIP. Fortunately, it updates fairly regularly (usually a new chapter is added between one and two weeks). It's length is justified because while Nepeta is the main character, all 12 trolls have important roles to play, and all 12 of them will have all 4 of their quadrants filled. This means no fewer than 22 different relationships (6 moirallegiances, 6 matespritships, 6 kismessitudes, and 4 auspitices) will be explored in this DoorStopper of a tale, with only one of them - the moirallegiance of Nepeta/Equius - is stable from the start. So far all of these troll romances have happened or are about to happen. According to the author, there are just two epilogue chapters remaining.
