Karkat and Empress would be more, "Huh, you can't fight or run? Good of you not to drag Dave and Dirk down." Karkat would see it as really noble and not at all unreasonable, and Empress bases her social understanding on what Karkat knows/believes because he's her partner.
IF the pack runs into Bro it'll be John who goes, "We don't care, come join us!"
And then Bro will end up being guard-and-first-teacher of the pups/kids/wigglers, and he will be totally disbelieving "I used to be cool. How did I end up as pack Nanny?" but he won't mind, because it's a really important/high-status position that he and his partner can do despite being handicapped.
And Dave yells at him a lot, and Dirk does some really aggressive ignoring, and Deck makes a point of pissing on his clothes and his partner's sleeping area for a month. And then Rose gets tired of it and therapies (therapises?) the five of them until they have a public crying-and-hugging/licking breakdown. And all* the trolls (*for a given value of all) are horrified because they are being utterly shameless palewhores, seriously, what was that thing about incest?
