I pretty much moved to discord like a couple days after we established this place and liked the chat format better for discussion and such, so a combination of discord and tumblr took care of my fandom needs. I still check this place but I have a better idea of how to use tumblr than imzy or even reddit so I just tended to gravitate around where I was more comfortable, shrug!!
I REALLY WISH that blimpcat davekat art was available on anything other than a fucking shirt, t-shirts look like ASS on me plus I'm way too old to get away with wearing tacky graphics tees like that anyway. but if that were a mousepad or something I'd be in there so fast, dammit
honestly it's a crime how difficult it is to find quality dirkjake content in this day and age
I had this whole embarrassing discussion with my homestuck friends where we tried to think up good land names to match our classpects and mine was "Land of Ghosts and Prisms" where the ghosts would be represented really abstract/wind-like to suit my Breath aspect and the prisms would be all rainbow-y cause that's what I'm about.
my ao3 name is LandOfMistAndSecrets which comes from me looking at a fictional country from a collaborative thing I work on with some people and homestuck-ifying it, it's basically an extremely forested (tall thin pine trees densely packed together) land with rivers running through it and shrouded in heavy, thick mist.
I tried to commission someone to draw these once but they were just like "you can but I'm not very reliable lmao" and I didn't feel like giving them money after that 8(
I think the most likely one is Vol 10. I would love that or the troll vinyls. I want a Karkat vinyl SO BAD >:[
I hate the ending because I was reading for the characters and their relationships and most specifically the dialogue more than any meta narrative or sburb lore itself so finishing with a silent pesterlog-free montage and 9 minutes of watching a tadpole sexually impregnate skaia was incredibly unsatisfying when what I really wanted was for all the kids and some of the trolls to talk about what they wanted and settle some of their baggage w/each other & themselves instead. and also where the fuck does the masterpiece fit in etc etc etc basically if you've read any of witch's meta narrative stuff which is exhaustively detailed on tumblr I agree with all of it completely
FUCK ALSO THAT ENTIRE CONVERSATION WHERE JANE IS TELLING JAKE "NO IT'S COOL GO DATE DIRK IT'S FINE I'M COOL" WHILE PUNCHING HERSELF IN THE FACE
there's too many good pesterlogs there's just too many
Dirk drawing porn for Caliborn???
THERE'S TOO MANY
oh god I don't even know how to narrow this shit down
- penis ouija
- striunion
- karkat, john and dave reuniting on the victory platform (both convos tbh)
- dirk and jake's 30 page fakeout thing where dirk talks about alpha dave and rose
- fruity rumpus memo
- "I'm afraid to not exist, aren't you" that whole dirk ar talk
- the goddamn alphas on their sacrificial slabs
- karkat's monologue to jade right before cascade
- karkat and john's "first conversation"
- "I don't want you to die" rose and dave's talk
- karkat to terezi in openbound
- roxy and kanaya when roxy gives her the matriorb
- dave and roxy (and rose) on the victory platform
- karkat and kanaya right before the omegapause
- on the subject of openbound basically every interaction dave has in it
- meenah interrupting aranea's story about how their session went and aranea's subsequent meltdown
- jade and davepeta right before collide
OK THAT'S ENOUGH I COULD KEEP GOING PROBABLY FOREVER WHAT THE JESUS
karkat is my favorite so that's why there's so much of him oh well!!!!
fuuuuuuuuuuck this is making me want to play the sims again
I love karkat's quadrant confusion stuff so much <3
nice
I think I'd make WV a blood player, it seems to suit his themes pretty well. Maybe an heir? He has those kinda doofy eccentric personality traits. For PM, she had that single minded almost religious dedication to a cause she's willing and able to fight for, so maybe a knight of rage, but I also kind of like rogue of hope for her because her whole thing becomes about stealing Jack's ambitions and turning them into hope for her kind.
I DID SO BAD AT THIS and like Karkat is my favorite character and most the ones I got wrong were thinking he was caliborn or vice versa :(
I'M GLAD U LIKED IT OMG... let me tell you... I started out so very unsure about alien dongs and then I just eventually buried myself in so much filthy smut of these two it stopped being weird to me and now I'm just like WHATEVER bring ON the tentacle dicks I'm immune to the xeno shit and ready to sin
:D
My favorite is probably Unite Synchronization which is truly not the most original choice but OH WELL it owns!! It's just a classic combination of the song itself being baller as fuck and also paired with some of the coolest flashes in all homestuck (imo.) I love how it brings in all the kids' instruments and it's just such an uplifting track.
I go back and forth between Roxy and Dirk every time I'm asked this question. Today I voted Roxy but on another day I very well might have voted Dirk, who knows.
Yeah same lol, I got one other friend to read it after me and I've been absolutely hounding another one, who actually did make it to the Intermission but then got distracted by the links in there to Problem Sleuth 8)
OH YEAH, Undertale was a big reason of why I started reading too. I was telling my Homestuck friends how much I liked it and they were like so you know that webcomic we've been telling you for literal years to read? Yeah the undertale guy worked extensively on that.
Not at launch apparently :( not sure how long it will take for them to add it.
HAHA I didn't start reading it until January this year or so, my first upd8 was actually the Jake one right after the omegapause. Most of my closest friends including my fiancee had all been reading for years and trying to get me to read it for years, but I'd always get like halfway through act 1 and quit.
I only sat down and forced myself to get through it because I was told it was ending in a few months. I got invested in Act 4 and fell in love somewhere in 5.2 and now here we are.
I was going to get Overwatch but then my friend who was also going to get it canceled because it didn't have cross-platform play yet >:[
SAME
Wasn't there a rumour that some sort of Homestuck tabletop roleplaying thing was in the works? That would be cool to have in regards to classpect/lore compendium stuff :D
EXCITING



mspaintadventuresAny theories about why this subimzy never took off?Aug 20, 2016 at 11:33 PM
