Ants will get you nowhere in life, Anon.
quality OP
What did she mean by this?
>>81416419
TH4NKS DOC
It'll be a 10 minute flash comprising of minigames. It will involve Gamzee, a fridge, bubbles von salamancer and one of John's imps.
We'll then cut back to the day being won the the battle summed up as 'shenanigans'.
What did she mean by this?
What was the purpose of all that stuff Hussie(?) gave to Caliborn? Like why the how to draw manga book?
>>81416623
That John will free us from the gay menace
>>81416623
That John will become part of the gay menace
>>81416440
>the battle summed up as 'shenanigans'.
>>81416765
Gamzee was the one who gave them to the cherubs, and for no reason other than the fact that he was taking care of them.
>>81416765
he must become Good
>>81416765
Because, as much as he hates it, he's the closest thing Caliborn will ever have to a father. And it's his job to try to make his quasi-son improve himself, even though he knows it won't work.
>>81416292
Why are you people still paying attention to this shit?
>>81416440
What will happen is: We cut to everyone's faces again and see them begin to fight. But then Alt Callie destroys/implodes/absorbs the green sun and fucks everything up. From there I don't know.
>>81417034
Because it's finally fucking ending thank god
we can befree
God tier outfits look so comfy. The kids are right in wearing them the whole time.
>>81417060
Stop posting this couple.
>>81417097
Why do people always make crockertier Jane's skin pure white?
>>81417160
Because her design wouldn't look nearly as good or striking if she had any kind of real skintone.
>>81417034
Because we're masochists
What is your opinion on the music of one, Mr Michael Guy Bowman?Will any of his motifs appear in the final product?
>>81417160
fits in with jade's skin darkening, and it looks cool
>>81417160

Let's end this shit once and for all.

Who else would Karkat get flushed with?
>>81417034
Because it's only around for another week and a half.
>>81416765
Homosuck's style was due to evolve, man. Can't afford to get stuck in a creative rut.

>Pre-Retcon Karkat will never come back
He is a cuck, but goddamn is he vasty superior than his post-retcon version who needs to double-die.
>>81417906
Nah, they both need to bite it. Karkat is a character with plot armor that shouldn't have it.
>>81417906
He's gonna show up with (Nepeta), just like god tier karkat showed up with dreamer Nepeta.
Every Karkat realizes after death who they're better off with.
What's the most retarded plot twist Hussie could pull at this point?
I'll start: Lord English and [color=green]Lord English[/color] turn out to be different characters.
>you find a good artist's blog
>they are either fictionkin, a multiple system or use ridiculous/awkward pronouns
destroy tumblr
>>81418303
>[color=green]Lord English[/color]
>>81418303
Something like 'Jade/any non evil character has been evil the whole time'
>>81418374
I know the formatting doesn't work on 4chan, I'm just trying to differentiate between the text naming LE that has been talked about like 99% of the time and the text naming LE in the Intermission and Spades Slick panels.
>>81418345
Man, it is legit terrifying how many people in fandom are fictionkin nowadays. I'm expecting to hear about FF7 House 2.0 anyday now.
>>81418303
I want there to be a secret boss controlling Lord English from the shadows. I mean come on, the guy is a giant dumb skull monster just wantonly destroying anything that moves, and Caliborn has said that "red herrings swim through his veins", and he's as obsessed with puppets as Dirk and Bro are.
It's dumb and cliched, but I still want it to happen.
>>81418303
That LE's powers stop working for no reason, allowing the troll army to pounce on him and tear him to shreds for a convenient win
>>81418513
>guy is effectively immortal only kill-able by exploiting numerous glitches

jasprose and davepeta are numerous glitches

why does strawpoll looks like shit now?
>>81418439
>FF7 House
Oh man, that was some crazy bullshit. Only the FF7 house story though, there's another story involving one of the girls in the house that was almost definitely fake.
But yeah, I don't know how it became so commonplace. People were mocking it, and then all of a sudden everyone had a kin page on their about with a bunch of love live characters in it.
I guess it's just harmless teen bullshitting, but it's so obnoxious that I can't help but unfollow anyone with a kin tag on sight. I remember seeing some jane-kin girl (yeah, Jane Crocker, fucking why) say something like 'why wasn't I in the last update?'. It's just painful to read.
>>81418598
>JaneDave
deader than JohnVris familia
>>81417451
haha you dick. fuken saved.
>>81418652
>deader than JohnVris
That's a good one. Nothing's deader than Johnvris.
>>81418687
Karezi
I've heard some people pointing out that Jane is nowhere to be seen in the confrontation pages on the last update but what if that's because the flash will actually be on her point of view while she teleports to every battle reviving the shit out of everyone?
>>81418723
that sounds too good to be true sadly
other than jake (until he goes hope-mode), which kid will get bodied the most in the flash?
>>81418723
>Jane
>being important
not a chance
>>81418800
:( but we can still hope
bring back oldhuss
>>81418714
Alright, okay, you got me there. But this is like comparing a pile of ash to a fossilized skeleton. You can't really get any deader than that.
>>81418723
She doesn't even need to revive people, she can heal them fine too. Same with both Nannasprites.
As long as John and Roxy remember they can phase and Roxy can phase others, they should be able to avoid most of the attacks from the Condesce.
>>81418839
>and it dont stop's acronym is AIDS

>>81418964
>speaking as if the fight is going to happen
not a chance friendo. Andrew 'Anticlimax' Hussie wouldn't animate a fight to save his life
>>81418839
could you imagine fluid animation is hussie's sketchy overemphasized style?
Threadly reminder that your favorite ship is shit
>>81418964
>As long as John and Roxy remember they can phase and Roxy can phase others, they should be able to avoid most of the attacks from the Condesce.
They probably will but I'm pretty sure Kanaya is gonna fuck the whole plan somehow anyway
if i were a betting man id put my money on alt callie's gt power being the ability to create black holes. i dont buy that the green sun will be destroyed tho, but if it is id be funny to see dave and rose show up in derse's moon immediately after and create it, completing the circle.
>>81419088
Yes and it's giving me a massive erection
>>81418839
I just googled this and the style looks cool as fuck, should I read it?
>>81419104
I hope so. Kanaya has basically been given a free ride throughout the entire comic.
>>81419106
shes not gonna destroy it
shes gonna eat it, cause young cherubs eat dying stars to mature.
Any updates today?
>>81419136
Read it this instant, it's unfortunately really short, and hussie made it pretty much for free when he was nameless on the internet in TSO. the guy that he co-created it with works with whatpumpkin now.
>>81419151
Everyone's had a free ride one way or another, let's not kid ourselves.
>>81419104
She's super fast and that's been repeated a lot in the comic so you can be sure Hussie is not going to do a single thing with it.
>>81419169
Yep
>>81419169
no. wednesday
>>81419169
None till wednesday.

literally every major character has jobbed more than kanaya.
She got shot through the gut once and came back with mary sue powers. Other than that, nothing.
>>81419275
Read the news post dumbshit
>>81419263
john and terezi are the only survivors
its a miserable experience
>>81419263
John and Roxy as the new universe's Adam and Eve. Everyone else is too gay and thus will be eradicated.
When will Karkat join me in double-death hell?hopefully never lmao, always torturing you that he has become another dumb kanaya clone hanging on a strilonde.

I would gladly purchase a copy of AIDS if it included tauhid's prequel. I would be happy to give andrew money, and that's saying something. always strange how Whistles got picked up for a book deal but AIDS never did desu
>>81419290
aww fuck!
Guess it all makes sense now.
>>81419280
>literally every major character has jobbed more than kanaya.
Oh sure, because Rose and Dave dying only one more time with a self-inflicted explosion to get tremendous superpowers is such a big fucking whoop.
Not to mention Karkat never died.
This whole comic is a breeze for everyone involved after Game Over overwrote the parts where they suffered the most.
>>81419402
>Not to mention Karkat never died.
wrong.
And it's not just about dying, it's about turmoil and problems and shiet.
>>81419402
>Dave dying only one more time
Read the fucking comic
>>81419263
>GcatTavros
Ugh, I completely forgot this was a thing. Why is this a thing? Why are these things things? Why can't they stop being things?
>>81419432
Right I forgot Karkat's girl problems were totally overwhelming compared to almost losing the whole future of your race.
You can downplay any character's suffering if you don't like them, mate, don't even start with this shit.
>>81419470
>We could've had Daverosprite and Gcatpetasprite
It could've been so much better. So, so, so much better.
>>81419253
The colours make it a little hard to read. Say what you want about the HS style, but it's clear.
You can see the Hussie-isms in both though. Those weird oval eyes are around in the HS art too.
>>81419432
>wrong
Pre-Retcon Karkat died twice. Post-Retcon Karkat never did :^)
>>81419466
Dave got killed by Noir and then ascended with the Green Sun. That's two deaths. Everything else was by a different Dave. Otherwise we might as well apply the events of Game Over to everyone too.
>>81419515
Post-retcon Karkat died in our hearts.
>>81419366
Have you seen the resolution of op's pc
I just uploaded the original size version
>>81419567
Who cares? Fuck off, Indexer.
>>81419263
I don't feel like any of the sprites will make it.
>>81419523
He still had to deal with the bodies and stuff, though, and deal with the fact that if things had gone just a little bit different he would have been them. His issues with his morality were kind of a big deal for his character arc.
>>81419612
I'm not saying Dave didn't suffer. I'm saying it's not quantifiably more or less than Kanaya's suffering when she lost the future of an entire species with no hope of recovery for three years.
ITT: We predict the EOA6 flash:
>Vriska permadies
>Karkat survives, because he is Dave's chosen boyfriend
>all fights are outsourced by guest artists who force their headcanons on us
>Condy gets killed off by Jasprose anti-climatically
>every fight is an anti-climax
>>81419212
Speed means nothing when you're a melee fighter and you can't fly to hit the enemy.
>>81419732
>lost the future of an entire species
every troll lost that
every character whos currently alive survives except vriska, but only the kids and three trolls (kanaya, karkat, terezi) enter the new session. gamzee and dad vanish, and the sprites willingly stay behind
>>81419735
Caliborn winning his fight is a forgone conclusion.
>>81419732
>>81419759
So did every human, really. I mean, now that the trolls have a new Matriorb, they're actually in a better position to propagate than humans are (even if all the gay humans stopped being gay)
>>81419759
Kanaya was personally responsible for it, she felt it more than anyone.
>>81419736
Yeah but this is Homestuck so watch as Kanaya turns into Super Sonic in the middle of the fight because something whatever.
>>81419819
Exactly. So you expect that he loses the fight as a twist. But the twist is that he wins the fight that we already knows he won. Very clever.
>>81419827
Propagation was always meant to be done by a large population created through ectobiology machines, the players themselves are irrelevant and so are their sexualities by extension.
>>81419735
>Sprites barely appear
>The ghost army dies but somehow Meenah and Karkat are left unscathed
>Tavros dies anticlimactically in the background
>Still no decisive word on DaveKat
>Kanaya kills Condy
>DD doesn't appear
Also bonus for the end of the story
>Vriska dies but it's treated as a heroic sacrifice that solidifies her as a "good guy"
>>81419735
Caliborn is still in charge of the story, so that means:
Team LE: ∞
All the other losers: 0
Everyone, who is not god tier dies.
>>81419827
Maybe jake's huge inventory item in his captchatalog is a sperm bank, so the humans can get some genetic diversity?
and what about the creatures that will inhabit the new universe?
>>81420027
Wasn't it already revealed as the lab with the 4th wall in it?
>>81420055
What the fuck is wrong with Jade's face?
>>81420027
Probably the room with the 5th wall.
>Karkat will never permadie
>>81420086
She has the unfortunate disease known as "being black"
>>81420251
Her mouth is the thing that pisses me off the most
Like, what the fuck is that even supposed to be?
>>81420251
I legitimately have no idea what I'm looking at here. Is Jade melting?
>>81420251
Representing minorities and skin conditions this way sets progress back in an active sort of way that simply choosing not to represent them at all does not. It's bordering on racist to execute this shit so poorly.
>>81417097
>tfw my original plan was to read the whole thing in its entirety
Honestly tbqh I don't even want to bother any more imho opinion
>>81420309
I don't know. I'd post a picture of a curvy jade with no pants on to make it up for you, but obviously, that wouldn't work out.
Instead have a karkat ship that's better than davekat
Hi. I've been super jaded with Homestuck for years. I hated every little detail or anything slightly reminiscent of a plot hole.
After this week of updates I can only say one thing. I LOVE HOMESTUCK.
>>81420309
She's gone rabid, she hasn't gotten any of her shots
>>81420251
I really, really like this image.
>>81418964
>As long as John and Roxy remember they can phase and Roxy can phase others, they should be able to avoid most of the attacks from the Condesce.
As long as John remembers he drilled through a fucking planet before, we're fine.
I just hope there's no bullshit resolution like "The Condesce tries to drain Kanaya's unlife and dies"
>>81420395
amazing what reintroducing Jade to Homestuck can do for it
>>81420309
>>81420251
Her teeth seem to be coming out of the bottom of her lips
Honestly the worst thing about this is the art-style. Lineless and aliased art only really looks good with simple block colours.
>>81420371
Shit. Same here.
I was really hyped for it two years ago. And then Game Over happened and it made everything that happened before then feel like a waste of time. Why bother reading all that shit if I know it's just getting retconned like that?
>>81420399
Does jade go into heat?
>>81420421
Yes, exactly. Jade was my favorite thing of these updates.
And mind you, I've never been a Jade fan. I used to hate her on my first read, actually.
>>81420436
The worst part is when he went back and deleted the relevant posts so that we can never see anything that was before the change.
>>81416419
What did she mean by this?
>>81420466you fuckin know it brother
>>81417236
What about Grimbark Jade?
>>81420484
that hussie is a hack
>>81420484
That people are overly invested in a girl who talks to Hussie and did art for the endgame flash, but hasn't seen anything.
It's like the people who think Trainwiz somehow has insider details about Bethesda, but even more annoying.
>>81420513
if shes done art for the endgame flash then she already knows some of whats in it
she also knows exactly what said art means, since hussie wouldve told her exactly what to draw
>>81417906
They're not so different. Dave, though...
>>81416292
New to Homestuck, just wondering: Where would be a good place to start reading? I tried the beginning, but it didn't seem to click for me.
>>81420556
>hasn't seen the endgame flash
>>81420484
davekat is canon and endgame. Not that further confirmation is needed, you can see this from reading the comic. Davekat deniers are completely delusional. One sent an paragraph long death threat to the person who posted this on reddit.
>>81420574
The beginning, you shitwreck. Push through it.
>>81420574
Problem Sleuth.
>>81420466
Yes. That's why she was so miserable during the three years. Once a month she'd have to go into her room and wreck a piece of furniture or two
>>81420574
Jailbreak
>>81420585
let me explain this for you
if hussie asked her to draw dave and karkat making out for the endgame flash then she knows that dave and karkat make out in the endgame flash
she doesnt need to see anything else to know that
>>81420574
You have to read the whole thing. The beginning isn't so great (especially if you are a new reader), but it picks up.
Eventually it turns into more of a YA science fantasy thing.
>>81420594
>davekat is canon and endgame
Good joke
>>81420484
ipgd is the least reputable source for this. shed say the same thing about the male leads in other series she likes
>>81420681
And I really doubt he'd request her to draw that. The only person he ever really had draw something major was Lexxy, who was one of the oldest and closest art team members.
On top of that, Dave and Karkat making out in EOA6 wouldn't make much sense, given that the two are battling in no close proximity to one another.
You guys are so paranoid about davekat being canon that any slightest hint sends it over the top, which is obviously her goal.
It doesn't even matter if she's seen eoa6 yet. Hussie could have just told her.
Not that it matters, because if you read the comic it should be incredibly obvious.
>>81420757
its just an example. what im saying is she absolutely 100% knows SOMETHING that happens in the end, and weve got no way to know what it is
saying she has no idea what shes talking about is objectively wrong. (it doesnt mean you have to believe everything she says, though)
>>81420711
>>81420599
A'ight. Looks like dubs prevail.
People who think Davekat is actually happening are extremely dimwitted.
>>81420715
I mean, Hussie's afraid to even do anything but give ambiguous teases with them. Then he introduces Jade who makes anything but subtle overtures.
>>81419920
but what does it MEAN?
>>81420748
Dude, give it up. It is made incredibly obvious that Dave and Karkat are dating in the comic. I'm not saying anything about how it's written (Hussie should have given them more scenes together before this if he wanted to pair them off, imo), but the way ipgd is phrasing it doesn't imply she's kidding.
Davekat happening is like Martin Hobbit fucking Benedict Cumberbatch in that one show. It's not.
>>81420915
>ambiguous teases
Rachel was right, if this was a het ship, no-one would be doubting this at all.
JohnRoxy has gotten way less hints that davekat but everyone is sure that's happening.
>>81420969
buddy youre not very smart
>>81421016
>JohnRoxy has gotten way less hints
See, now you're just outright lying.
>>81420915
>I mean, Hussie's afraid to even do anything but give ambiguous teases with them.
You're the only one choosing to see these "teases" as ambiguous.
>>81421056
mental note: mack on
Just a heads up, reddit was linked to these threads, expect idiot teenage shitposters.
>>81420915
if it happens, then all it took was to bring vriska to life to both fix everyone's personal problems and thrust dave and karkat into a lifelong relationship. it's fairly ridiculous
>>81420943
i don't think i mentioned whether it seems like it's canon in the comic
>>81421016
>JohnRoxy has gotten way less hints
>The comments about the rings foreshadowing
>Roxy boyfriend vision
>John outright saying he likes her
Yeah no
If you don't like Davekat you're a homophobe. If you don't trust ipgd you're a sexist, simple as that.
>>81421063
They really are. Compare them to the two updates worth of Davejade we got.
>>81420574
Start from the middle, like you do with all stories.
>>81421016
if vriska and jake suddenly hook up in act 7 ill look at that like i look at davekat
http://strawpoll.me/7273499
davekat poll. I want to see how many delusional fuckers are here.
>>81421016
Are you retarded? We've seen all of John and Roxy's interactions. They haven't done anything more romantic than holding hands. There's no ambiguity there.
With Dave and Karkat things could be anywhere from "they're moirails" to "Dave has put his penis in Karkat's asshole". The latter of which is pretty gross and wasn't even a theoretical thing that could ever happen before the retcon, and if real, it came right out of nowhere.
>>81421195
what about vriska and jade
Even if Davekat wasn't ambiguous, it's still really bad.
>>81416292

>Compare them to the two updates worth of Davejade we got.
God damn you're the definition of someone who sees what they want to see. Jade got a sympathetic kiss from someone who used to be her ex-boyfriend in another reality, specifically Davesprite. That's really 100% of any actual "hints" towards anything even remotely resembling Jade/Dave.
>>81421281
>question marks in places they needn't be
>liking gay shit
Tumblr fuck off, and stay fucked off.
what are you talking about guys, theres no homophobes here. that would be ridiculous.
>>81421349
>onscreen kiss
>Jade teasing Dave about said onscreen kiss
For someone who tosses around the word "delusional" a lot, you seem to be quite delusional yourself.
>>81421228
I could've lived with DaveKat pre-retcon, because they actually had a fucking dynamic. Post-retcon ikimaru's art and their shit dialogue makes it feel like it's just bad fanon literally overwriting the actual comic.
>>81421224
>"Dave has put his penis in Karkat's asshole". The latter of which is pretty gross
Oh well look at Mr Too Good To Have His Prostate Massaged over here.
>>81421378
onscreen kiss with a different character
how do you take this as regular dave
>go to mspa since apparently "flash discussion"
>no flash
Worst OP ever
>>81421016
>Rachel was right
No, she wasn't.
If Kanaya -a character with an established sexuality- was in Dave's place in Vriskagram, people would be wondering whether they're moirails or matesprits. In fact, people would be calling you stupid if you didn't think they're moirails.
Because, you know what? Context is important. And it was rude of Rachel to post that thing considering these two points:
1) It was a perfectly logical thing to question, that would have been asked regardless of gender.
2) It was rude to Hussie himself, who obviously wanted to make it ambiguous and disclose it slowly over the course of the next conversations. Having Rachel to just confirm it because she wanted to be a social justice warrior who wants to be the hero who defends the honor of LGTBdom is borderline narcissistic.
>>81421378
>onscreen kiss
With fucking Davepeta. Who used to be her ex-boyfriend, Davesprite. But not actually her ex-boyfriend, an ex-boyfriend from another reality.
You are really reaching.
>>81421398
Dunno, ask Jade.
>>81421423
dave didnt have an established sexuality
>>81421426
>>81421349
>With Davepeta
>who gives a big long speech about ultimate selves and how close they are to that ultimate self
>before kissing Jade
You guys just keep digging a deeper hole.
Why do I feel like these people are actually davekat shippers denying that they are because they know the majority doesn't actually like it?
>>81421423
>If Kanaya -a character with an established sexuality- was in Dave's place in Vriskagram, people would be wondering whether they're moirails or matesprits.
>Implying all the John/Rose shippers weren't exactly this deep in denial at every point before we saw Rose and Kanaya kiss
You've been spared the horrors and inanity of the summer of 2011 to 2012 /hsg/. And for that, count yourself lucky.

You can't win with Davekatfags. They just keep seeing shit that isn't actually there.
Can someone tell me what is PIV?
>>81421372
Sup reddit.
>>81420484
aaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>81421459
He did, outside of the comic (Hussie's Twitter). Just like Kanaya.
>>81421468
>actually reading Davepeta's logs
lmao
>>81421430
jade doesnt literally think theyre the same person, shes teasing him
>>81420484
Someone post that post Hussie made where it was saying how Dave wasn't a homosexual.
>dude im gonna make everyone gay so it'll be controversial and cool in 2011
>comic stretches out so far that being gay isn't edgy anymore
>>81421482
ive never used reddit in my life
>>81421468
>Cherrypicking this hard
Davepeta was just consoling her and her loneliness by saying "hey at least you got laid in another dimension". It was not a hint towards the future, it was a reference to a past event from their perspective.
>>81421088
And here I thought you were kidding
>>81420574
Homestuck's beginning is slow, the middle is fucking amazing, and the end is a trainwreck
Don't bother
>>81421459
>Dave "I fucking love MILFS" Strider
>Not having an established sexuality
GOOD JOKE
>>81421524
I think you've lost track of what you're saying and you don't even know what you're arguing about anymore.
>>81420711
YA with more uses of the word "fuck"
Seriously YA lit needs some swearing
>>81421484
if you mean that twitter post about dave not being a homosexual, that didnt confirm his sexuality. it just meant he wasnt gay, which we already knew because we saw him liking girls. it was never established that he didnt/couldnt also like guys.
>>81421555
I think you paid more attention to the pictures than the words in the update so of course you don't know what I'm saying, even though all I'm doing is describing it.
>>81421541
bisexuality still exists, anon
>>81421491
And thus still confirming her interest in a relationship. Pretty damn hard too.
There's really no ambiguity there. We know for a fact one side is interested in a relationship. Davekat doesn't even have that.

Shit taste. It should be HIGH TIER.
For so many people voting "I don't ship it" a lot of people here seem weirdly adamant in trying to prove Davekat as being a thing.
>>81421587
Not for a character that showed no signs of even being interested the same sex.
>>81421608
>Act 4
>Not God tier
Also
>Any part of Act 6
>Above shit tier
>>81421638
no it wouldnt. it just meant that neither of them were homosexual.
john is straight, so they couldnt date. but if he had only mentioned johns sexuality, people would think he was confirming gay dave.
>>81421690
Caliborn, Roxy and Dirk are leagues above a good chunk of Act 5 and3
>>81421666
I don't like Davekat at all but unfortunately I think it's probably going to happen
>>81421666
It's almost like they're lying.
>>81421638
if the limiting factor is john, then the phrasing should have just mentioned john not being homosexual
if hussie mentions both john and dave, the implication is that neither is sexually compatible with that relationship
>>81421608
What a shitty-ass list.
>>81421720
They're definitely above shit-tier, fine, but I wouldn't put them above any part of pre-Act 6 Homestuck except maybe Act 1.
>>81421744
Hivebent can get pretty bad at some parts, and Jade is a fucking drag.

Have you considered that you don't know what the fuck you're doing when doing an opinion poll?

>>81421800
i don't care if its supposed to be bad, early Jade shit fucking sucks
If Davekat happens I will livestream my suicide
>>81421800
you just think that because shes not gay, lets be honest
>>81421832
this is a bad meme
>>81421800
>Davepeta shit that's hussie saying "lol sorry you're a bad character but its cool"
>>81421832
Jade just isn't gay because she's never physically met another girl outside of a dead nightmare Feferi
Give her time
>>81421744
Early Act 6 had plenty of good scenes. Everything leading to Unite Synchronization and Caliborn: Enter was amazing, and every minute they spent on Derse and Prospit was god tier.
>>81419263
The only trolls that will make it are probably Terezi, Karkat and Kanaya. Perhaps Vriska too but I kinda doubt it.
>>81421826
Well it won't so have fun being alive for like another 50 years.
>>81421832
Or maybe because her updates felt like homestuck should be
You're really reaching here. You visit /r/homestuck by any chance?
Would you rather have Davekat or Johndave be canon?
>>81421856
all she did was hit on daves. the only reason to like that is if you ship it.
Post >yfw there's a bonus walkaround flash after act 7 with everyone interacting andeveryone gets a talksprite
>>81421890
This is what denial looks like
>>81421799
Johnrose was always cute.
First guy/first girl ships are usually boring as shit but they were adorable together and have fun, believable chemistry.
>>81421904
wait for the transcripts
>>81419505
Neat, now go make one of the kids.
Also, what if we get another one of these in Act 7 with the rest of assholes that aren't here like the sprites or gamzee or jade
>>81421893
Neither
>>81421893
JohnDave without a doubt.
>>81421893

They have chemistry that Davekat doesn't
>>81421893
Neither. Why do I have to accept your binary reality?
>>81421891
that dialogue isnt with jade though, its just in the same scene
>You visit /r/homestuck by any chance
no
>>81421893
johndave honestly but theres 0 chance of that
The real question is why anyone still gives a shit about either Dave or Karkat post Act 5.
Jade's too good for shit characters.

john is not a homosexual.

You don't have to like something to acknowledge it exists.
Otherwise I'd be arguing that Vriska is actually dead right now. She wasn't revived in a bullshit retcon. Oh no. Hussie would never put something in a story that I personally dislike.

Look, buddy. Guy. Homestuck's plot is fucking DOA. You know the conclusion's not gonna be satisfactory, you know the journey there was a fucking trainwreck. The story as a story has been shit for a LONG time. The only saving grace at this point is the hope that your ship becomes canon.
>>81422039
Davekat and Vriska's revival are two things currently in the comic.
You can dislike both of them, but you'd be retarded to be in active denial of either of them on top of that.

>>81422108
And the worst thing is that my ship's not gonna be canon because of fucking Davekat
Goddamn
Quick I need a new good ship that's likely to actually happen, are there any?
>>81422047
I know you're baiting, but I'd just like to note that the first intermission arguably has more importance and relevance to the end of the comic than the first four acts do. Hussie really fucked up.
>>81422117
But anon,Davekat isn't in the comic
>>81422108
You've had over a year to move on to another less disappointing franchise.
It's not like Dave/Jade is some unique treasure, you could see that shit practically copy pasted in any random cartoon or show or movie.
>>81422117
Except no
You can point to the obvious fact that Vriska is alive
Show me where it says Davekat is a couple that isn't you reading into it.

I'm not the DaveJade shipper. I don't even ship DaveJade. At this point my most preferred (realistic) endgame ship isJadeKat

>we're now in the stage where, with no real arguments, the davekat people go "STOP CARING ABOUT SHIPS SO MUCH"
>>81422108
I dont ship shit, just want to see if sburb gets more worldbuilding and move on my life.
>>81422200
jadekat was never realistic. jade explicitly said that she hoped karkat would be over her by the time they met again. she was never going to like him back.
>>81422177
>Show me where it says Davekat is a couple that isn't you reading into it.
Faggots in denial who need something to be spelled out literally as "X AND Y ARE BOYFRIENDS" are what have ruined Homestuck discussion since forever.
>>81422177
>You can point to the obvious fact that Vriska is alive
Nah I'll just choose not to.
You're just reading into the comic too much.

>>81422257
You're proving his point
>>81422233
fuck you
>>81422254
That's the response I expected.
Face it, your analogy is shit as your personality, Davekat got little teases that were left ambiguous before an ending Hussie had been planning since 2013.
>>81422282
find something to get interested in that doesnt rely on someone else. being autistic doesnt preclude that.
I think one thing that we can agree on was making shipping a huge part of Homestuck's plot was a mistake.
>>81422287
>Jade/Dave shippers still exist
One would expect they would have disappeared just like John/Rose shippers had the decency to do.
>>81422287
>everyone is a davejade shipper!
No.
Also fuck you idiots going about this. You're in a Homestuck thread. People here like Homestuck. They're going to get upset over things that are perceived as being bad, like Davekat. "Stop caring about that thing you like" has been the dumbest fucking argument for years. Since you obviously don't give a shit, why not leave?
>>81422288
Reading so many pages just for shippings is worse.
>>81422221
All snark aside, I don't know why I'm not allowed to overly invest in a work of fiction/escapism. Yeah, I've got a lot going on, and most of it's stressful and disappointing. I don't wanna have to deal with that same disappointment in something I wanna do for fun. If I wanted that I'd go root for the Edmonton Oilers.
>>81422338
i think it made sense for the alpha kids, its not like they had anything important to do.
and the rest of really it isnt a big part of the plot, no matter how obsessed some of you are with it.
>>81422355
We had two updates in a row that explicitly teased it, you'd be wrong if you said it wasn't still in the running.
Plus it's way better than Davekat.
>>81422288
shut up
we'll know what mage does soon enough
>>81422383
>I don't know why I'm not allowed to overly invest in a work of fiction/escapism
Because smug assholes who want to feel superior to you for their lack of investment said so.
>>81422338
THIS
>>81422395
I guess, but the aspects of it that worked for the Alpha kids was that it was a disaster and all the ships got sunk and nobody was happy
There should not have been any explicitly successful ships in Homestuck
>>81422383
you can escape into whatever you want, but A) the comic is ending, & B) if it sucking is a big problem for you then obviously finding something better to do would be a better escape

I didn't say you're not allowed to be invested but to be this defensive over what's essentially your own vision of a work you have no control over is just inane.

>>81422404
Teased it? On the contrary. They gave it closure by saying that Jade will be endgame single because LOL SPACE and then sealed it with a kiss from Davepeta, referencing their old relationship.
I just hate when something small happens and people go crazy about a ship having sailed because of that. Just like that time the fandom went on a hallucinogen trip and imagined that Roxy had kissed Calliope and that now they're girlfriends. It's the same.
Davekat is happening. It sucks, but by denying it you're just depriving yourself from reading Homestuck as it is supposed to be read. You're choosing to ignore things that are important and highlight things that are not, and then you'll be confused when you don't understand why Dave is rimming Karkat's butthole in the EoA7 flash.
>>81422557
no because youre fucking obnoxious

>>81422574
And then immediately woke up, flirted with Dave, and outright acknowledged she's not listening to whatever rules were set up.
Which is also what Davepeta told them.
You've got a ship that's been teased, and confirmed in multiple forms since Act 3, versus a last minute freakout. Davekat isn't happening. It never was.
>>81422696
>she's not listening to whatever rules were set up.
just so Hussie can have her out on the field to get mindcontrolled again

>>81422696
>Dave and Karkat has been cuddling for three years

Just watch how Hussie won't do Davekat, and then give a lecture on how everyone was homophobic for freaking over the possibility of it happening.
DaveJade will always be canon in my fanfic...
>>81422696
Did you forget already about the part when Dave said it would be tricky to come out of the closet to his friends, and especially to Jade since they used to have something special going on?
What does this tell you about the future of Jade/Dave?
>>81422757
Thanks babe.
>>81422701

>>81422792
>Did you forget already about the part when Dave said it would be tricky to come out of the closet to his friends
I think I did, because that never happened and the conversation where it might have cut away before showing what it was about to say.
We call that "ambiguity"
>>81422810
Please show me where it says ARquius and half Gamzee are part of Lord English.
welp, it's nowhere
then i guess it's false
>all this "I don't ship davekat but let me angrily insist why it's canon" shit
God damn, I'd be more comfortable if you shitship loving fucks would just admit it.

>>81422810
Right, just so you can go "but no it's ambiguous" without offering a viable alternative reading.

MSPA READER Mental Breakdown
Your welcome.
>>81422883
You mean you had to do that with two ships that were outright confirmed, one of which had on screen kiss and the other which talked about dating and had an onscreen breakup.... versus one where both parties won't even talk about the relationship, and the other observing parties don't even know if they're in one?
Really good analogy dude. Get the fuck out.
>>81422513
Highly relevant:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cinLQG2VSR4
>>81422935
It doesn't actually SAY it it's just a bunch of pictures that IMPLIES it.
It's still pretty ambiguous.
>>81422882
not until the Final Joke has come nerevaru-chan.
>>81422870
I love how you keep using examples that were shown on screen to actually happen
It says a lot. You can't actually think of anything approaching Davekat's level of both ambiguity and awfulness, the only things you can point to are outright stated.
>>81422935
what, no
that's ambiguous
There is no part of the comic that is OBJECTIVELY BAD besides the Trickster arc and the Vriska instagram shit.
Prove me wrong.
can a prince of hope be the strongest or do they always completely ruin everything?
>>81422988
You're trying to be condescending and prove a point, but all you're showing is that you don't know what it means when something is ambiguous.
The most you can point to is the end of the Dave and Dirk conversation, which cut away and then never went anywhere, and the next time we see them Jade is flirting with Dave.
Davekat is canon. Canonically awful.
>>81422986
what happened on screen? nothing
we just saw ARquius and half Gamzee being trapped in Lil Cal
and then a flash with some images that are just teasing things but they're not saying what they're implying.
i still think sollux is part of lord english
see how his eyes flash?
Will Hiveswap even came out?
>THE TALE MY MASTERPIECE DESCRIBES, IS BASICALLY A SPOILER TO THE ENDING OF THINGS. IT TAKES PLACE IN A FUTURE MOMENT. LONG BEYOND WHEN WE, YOU, OR I HAVE ANY BUSINESS SEEING WHAT HAPPENS.

So how is Caliborn going to change the timeline now that he knows how is his fight with the 8 kids going down?
>>81422946
>You mean you had to do that with two ships that were outright confirmed
Nigga I'm old.
I've been doing this shit since before ANY ships were confirmed.
Back in the day when people were still upset that Vriska only NEARLY killed Tavros.
You think you're different? You're not. The same fucking guy making the same fucking conversation over and over. Not even literally the same guy. I'm talking figurative. I'm talking in a symbolic sense.
You think I take joy in this? You think I enjoy this groundhog's day of you being a fucking retard and me watching you be a fucking retard until the comic hits you over the head with it, and then you cry about it coming out of nowhere?
We don't row a boat gently down a stream, where life is just a dream. No sir. It's an unending nightmare. And you, you are the rocks that trashes my lifeless body as it careens down an Amazonian waterfall.
>>81423079
>we just saw ARquius and half Gamzee being trapped in Lil Cal
And Caliborn as well. And Caliborn telling us how he's going to merge with them.
You're really bad at this. You're trying to prove another example is true (Davekat) by somehow trying to argue that this other thing (LE) is ambiguous.
How about instead, you actually show us where Davekat is you know, stated to be a thing. Because of all the examples you'll find involving their relationship, you're going to find them refusing to really discuss it, other characters commenting that they don't know if they're in a relationship, and a cutaway with Dave maybe asking about how to come out.
You've got really nothing. Because there isn't nothing, and you're fucking nothing.
>>81423155
Yeah, great, those two ships that had multiple logs of flirtation, development, and then outright confirmation are totally the same as the last-minute ship where every single character makes it out to be ambiguous, that takes place right before everything else is set in stone, on TOP of another rival love interest coming along and making their interest clear.
You're not just old, you're a senile fucking retard.
>>81423142
John and his retcon magic.
I personally don't care if Davekat is actually canon or not but I'm gonna deeply enjoy the massive butthurt from which ever side ends up being wrong.

>Look at me miss the point by treating this shit in hindsight while totally blind to how I'm just repeating history
So I gotta ask
What will you guys do if Davekat doesn't happen?

Go "huh that's weird" and then continue waiting for Steven Universe to come back from hiatus.
>>81423155
this is some intensely depressing shit. is literally everyone in /hst/ suicidal or something?
I really want karkat to die and have Jade come comfort Dave and then fall in love.

Your point is "these two things that are only similar because they're gay prove that this unrelated thing is going to happen, nevermind even the 'hints' we got when it was supposedly a thing were outright stated to be ambiguous".
You're as shit at making connections as you are at succeeding at anything in your pathetic life. Fuck off.

Not according to John/Rose shippers.
Not according to Dirk/Roxy shippers.
Ha ha remember when AR did an ERP with Roxy? Totally confirmed, guys. Dirk can't be gay if his computerized alternate self can make sexual teases with a girl.

No, they're similar because hetero shippers treated all hints as "ambiguous" right up to the point where it got confirmed, where they then whined that it came out of nowhere and "what happened to all those hints for MY ship? what about that easter egg statue? what about the color of the shoes?"
You've got so much to learn. But this is no topic that needs learning. Revel in your ignorance. No man should ever be tied down by this knowledge of /hsg/s past.

You fraud.

>>81423446
Buddy, I've been here since problem sleuth. I know all those conversations.
And unlike you, because you're a pathetic twat, I actually read the fucking comic. Rosemary, Jake/Dirk, not ambiguous.
When you have characters, in the comic you don't read because you're an illiterate taint of shit on humanity, outright saying "Hey we don't actually know what the nature of their relationship is", and the same characters also being coy and ambiguous, guess what? It as fucking ambiguous. Jury's as out on davekat as they are on whether or not you're inbred. Though frankly the latter is much more likely.
>>81423524
Because they appear later to fight Caliborn.
Then the betas get trapped in a house.
>>81423583
didnt the alpha's die tho?
>>81423618
Status kind of unknown. Caliborn fucks up most of them, then is hoped by Jake. They recover, long enough for Dirk to rip out his soul, and Roxy to send it away. Presumably Jane lives because.
>>81423539
this is stupid. theyre unambiguous NOW, but they werent always that way. jake and dirk didnt start talking about dating each other from their first conversations. rose and kanaya had a LONG buildup before anything explicitly romantic was mentioned.
>>81423489
not part of this conversation, but no, you're an idiot. They merged, it's clearly explained in the flash. Why the hell do you think Lord English is hyper-muscly and honks all the time?
>>81423618
no. They were the ones who "defeated" caliborn.
>>81423674
this person doesnt actually think that, its a metaphor for davekat.
>>81423696
man i've forgetten so much, but i have no desire to reread half this trash.
>>81423539
All you're proving is your denial. The hetero shippers of sunk ships past have said the exact same things you're saying now. It's ambiguous THIS time. It's not canon THIS time.
You. You've nothing but words. Conviction escapes the shorelines of your truths, darkened as they are by the abandoned lighthouses that are scattered above those hollowed reefs. No. There is nothing but the shadowy seeds of doubt that plagues the crumbled soil of your heart, abortions under the crushing weight of your denial.
One day. We shall share the light. We shall look back on this and laugh. But that day... is not this day.

http://www.mspaintadventures.com/ACT6ACT6.php?s=6&p=009309
I suppose these aren't actuall spoilers and since Caliborn knows how all of this shit is going down he is going to change stuff and modify the timeline somehow
>>81423669
Both of them had long buildups. Davekat does not. They never had people ambiguously going "Well MAAAAAAAYBE they're in love but we don't know either way, truly.", Davekat does. They are ambiguous, and they're going to fuck stay that way, in the same way that you're going to stay an unloved bitch.
anyone else ship Kanaya<3Karkat?
or Karkat<3<Meenah?
>>81423669
i don't remember much controversy about the relationship. the chemistry between john and rose wasn't great and I don't think it was very popular. rose and kanaya had regular interactions from kanaya's introduction.

He lifts weights, as it was clearly shown here. It's very explicit.

You're just people who (not unreasonably) couldn't be arsed to read the huge load of crap that was this previous act of teens talking about feelings, and since you only skimmed them you didn't read the multiple times they talked about DaveKat. It's surprising because that ship permeates almost every conversaion, which is obnoxious as shit, but still understandable.
But if you read it again, and more carefully this time, you'll see that Davekat is happening.

>>81424077
>i showed that they did
You showed an example that proved the opposite of your point, which is that characters still talked about unconfirmed relationships as one or more parties being interested.
That conversation shows that
>Dirk wants a relationship with Jake
>Dirk likes Jake
All conversations with Davekat have not shown anything like this, with ALL parties involved either giving no straight answers, or not knowing the feelings of either Dave OR Karkat? And you know why? Because it's not fucking happening. Your last-minute gay ship is a pipe dream for yaoi fangirls.
You can't even call out fallacies correctly because you're so fucking stupid. Just get out before you disgust me even further.
>>81424170
jake not liking guys would have sunk dirkjake, so not being sure about jake made the relationship ambiguous
do you not understand that
>>81424120
>Not everything is a rape.
His robot would constantly sexually assault him and he was more or less pestered into a relationship that ultimately, he didn't want.
Not rape, true, but still damn creepy.
And then the implications of Dave being tortured by vaguely sexual things for years at the hands of Bro is now questioning his sexuality? There's some unfortunate implications there.
>>81424039
incest but kinda hot
>>81424170
>You showed an example that proved the opposite of your point, which is that characters still talked about unconfirmed relationships as one or more parties being interested.
Oh you mean like when Roxy asked Dave if he's ever been in love and he's embarrassed, immediately after he and Karkat talk about sexualities shifting away from heterosexuality and being embarrassed, while Kanaya and Vriska listened in on their shouting and talk about how their intimacy makes them embarrassed.
You daft fuck.

brobot was physical abuse, not sexual
theres 0 rape happening
>>81424236
No, it would have made the relationship one-sided. You don't understand that because you're a fucking idiot.
Davekat at the moment, is zero-sided.
>>81424270
>brobot was physical abuse, not sexual
Did you miss the whole thing where he said that if he tried to turn the robot down it would molest him?

Son, Homestuck 2.0 is real and you're gonna have to deal with that.
Over half the thread. 200+ posts. Over a davekat argument.
This has been some of the best entertainment I've had in years.
>>81424310
did you miss the thing where he did not say that at all
>>81424264
So in other words, the same conversation where the parties in a possible relationship don't give a clear answer, and the parties listening in go "it's ambiguous"?
Go kill yourself, maybe your death will give your soul the clarity you clearly lack.
>>81422844
And what they were being ambiguous about?
What did Dave meant when he said that?
What is he afraid to tell to the girl he felt like he had kind of a special relationship with but that he hasn't seen in three years?

Who knows, maybe in the eight months it happened Hussie realized his mistake.

Maybe, instead of going nowhere, the author felt that there was nothing else to be shown for the reader because making things more explicit would just be bad writing at that point.
>>81422472
This is great, if it's not copypasta it's about to be.
Fuck, I just realized that the Davekat deniers are just trolls and that I've wasted hours of my life trying to argue against them.
Jake said that Brobot was getting "too tender" with him sometimes which implied something like showing romantic gestures. You need to be fully retarded to read that as "rape".
>>81424562
Well he did break up with Halftruth. And upon coming back the comic seems a lot better than the FAST N LOOSE updates.

Yeah, cause Hussie has been so good with that rule in the past.
I mean fuck, especially in that whole act, which was the epitome of Homestuck's bad writing.
Has Hussie made any jokes about gay singularity since Homestuck returned?
I'm confused.
What the hell is the deal with union jack? Is he another version of lord english? Is there 2 lord english on that timeline or something or is the same lord english that will eventually become the green riped guy or what the fuck?

http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005407
Remember when Hussie typed up Dolorosa x Mindfang in canon?
Why the fuck fandom hates Caliborn so much? And what I mean bu that is that many people see him as some kind of joke. I always thought Hussie had created an amazing villain who, while being an extremely cliche big bad to a point, was on the other hand so well-written and developed and shown to grow up from an angry annoying teenager into full-blown threat for the whole universe and beyond. So many people think he will fail fighting Yaldabaoth and that LE is solely a result of a fusion and is muscular due to Equius and furious due to Gamzee and etc. What the hell.
>>81424858
This thread has been so bad. People is deep in denial and it's just pathetic at this point.
>>81424875
The girl is a goddamned treasure.
Imagine if Hussie said "especially ethnic wedding" today.
>>81424602
Excellent post my friend
>>81424893
why did he think this was a good idea
>>81424889
I think the big deal is how Hussie is hamfisting stuff in even during the very last pages.
Personally I think it's all gonna culminate in a big joke. Or be meaningless with the "Jade destroying end game ships" thing.

Caliborn is the hardest working character in the comic. He had to scratch, bite, and fight his way for every single thing he's done. He is the true hero of homestuck.
My dream ending is English being victorious and Hussie actually deleting MSPA when English destroys it.
It would be fucking LEGENDARY

Oh come on. We were just told that he worked very hard, this barely counts as a build-up.
Peolpe talk a lot here about how great is Caliborn because he struggled so much and blah blah blah. And despite not being wrong, I don't give a fuck about that because it's yet again another case of Hussie's telling and not showing.
Caliborn is good because he's funny. But as a character he's pretty meh.

>>81425342
well we did see him improve his drawing skill by going about it in like, the hardest way possible.
Caliborn always seemed like a big manchild to me. It makes sense as a final boss in a comic about growing up. I always wondered if hussie was going to do anything with how the most powerful weapons are all zillyhoo and silly and really childlike.

Davekat may be real, but it was still a mistake and pretty much ruined both the two best characters in the comic by turning them into different characters we aren't familiar with right at the end of the story.
It's impossible to buy up as believable that Dave and Karkat would spend 3 years together with zero romance happening between them, even one-sided, only for the same 3 years to happen again with one extra passenger and end with them being gay together. No matter how you look at it that's shit writing. Maybe if there were at least some slight allusions before the retcon, like Karkat considering a three-way thing and Dave thinking about it for a moment before catching his thoughts and reprimanding himself. Anything like that. But nothing like that happened.
>>81425433
>Is Hiveswap still being made?

Not to mention if you look at it from an archival perspective, the last things we see is Dave and Jade dying together and Karkat getting lava'd to save Terezi. It's incredibly jarring
>>81425409
So how the hell has he been planning this all this time?
3 Years sounds like a long ass time to plan one Final Flash, sitting on art assets and all. I presume it's been in the works longer than that.

>>81425342
He was hinted at since the first intermission and first shown at the end of Act 5 as LE. The whole act 6 was pretty much Caliborn's buildup for me. We went back from the big bad to teenage years, we saw him beat his game step by step and get all of the upgrades one by one.
>>81425536
Wink once if hussie's gonna pull the rug out and make them <> with Karkat being so embarassed because morail to matesprite is the biggest cliche ever in his rom coms.
I'll be sitting down the street with an elaborate mirror set up to see

>>81425470
>and pretty much ruined both the two best characters in the comic by turning them into different characters we aren't familiar with right at the end of the story
Davekat didn't have anything to do with that.
Hussie just ruined them on his own when he forgot how to write his own characters.
It's perfectly possible to imagine a scenario where they were shipped and didn't become wooden flanderized cutouts of their former selves. That didn't happen.
>Only for the same 3 years to happen again with one extra passenger and end with them being gay together
Are you dense? First of all, Dave's blatant being-in-the-closet had writing all over the wall. Secondly one of the very first things they did together was draw dicks and make homo-erotic gestures, and this was in the Gameover timeline.
>B-but those were just jokes!
Hey everyone, I'm going to announce to the streets that I'll suck cocks and draw dicks everywhere. No homo, it's jking remember :')

I've been here for years.
Even at it's worst /HSG/ actually discussed the comic and their shitty trips and drama whores drew, wrote smut and we had an active thing going. It was blatant shitposting but still. Even on spiderchan now they still talk about politics and life-shit.
When I browse over these posts here it's practically indistinguishable from skimming over a Homestuck tag on tumblr. I don't mean that in a meme 'hurr go back to tumblr' sense but as a direct comparison to the quality and content of posts.

one thing I was always wondering about was if the kids would think like these are too childish like, I'm gonna use my badass FEAR NO ANVIL YEAH!!!
And If hussie was gonna use that for some kind of moral thing about growing up. Seems weird to introduce them just as really strong end game items.
>>81425895

Hey if you were alone in a room with ipiggy what's the most demeaning thing you could think to do? All of it goes, rape, murder, whatever.

>>81425747
We're still missing a lot of pieces of that puzzle.
Like what happened on the 8-ball planet, how he beat the game and what happened afterwards, how he God Tiered, what challenges he had to face to find the keys to the narrative, how he became able to manifest as his adult form out of Doc Scratch, and so on.
Also his coat, but I'm sure that will be covered before the end.

I'll be pissed if it doesn't, because Hussie obviously meant to develop it (Kurloz picking up Vriska's coat) and if he skips its it will just mean that he forgot.
>>81426101
>Also his coat, but I'm sure that will be covered before the end.
Y-yeah, he w-wouldn't forget about all of that and leave us hanging, or have the mysteries unsolved like it's p-predecessor, LOST would he ;/?Brace yourselves for massive disappointment
>>81426179
how is lost related to homestuck at all
>>81426107
Well no shit, why do you think I picked it?
>>81426166
I agree with that theory floating around that Act 7 will be the fight against English. I could see something going down with English getting the coat right as the flash ends as the only one left facing the kids.
>>81426024
Literally me
>>81426208
Hussie said he liked LOST (including the ending) and sees it as an inspiration
>>81424858
who starts this foolishness once more
>>81425107
Probably, he's going to realize one or two parts are bad for not Plot related reasons
like he enhances the creation of one or two objects like vriska's corpse
>>81417451
Fruity Freedom, fuck youuuuu!
>>81426208
A lot of Homestuck was inspired off of Lost.
See all the Countdowns, the massive casts/factions, the non-linear narrative style, and the Dream Bubble-like afterlife at the end.
>>81426247

Now that would be a plot twist
>>81426029
I hate how the moral of Homestuck is to get rid of all individuality and meld into one "proper" being through Hussie's perceived notion of maturity.
>>81426446
thats what im wondering. If the moral about the zilly weapons is going to be like the spongebob movie or something. where even if others think its childish or stupid it's something you like so dont conform to other peoples expectations
Thread is bitching, ipgd fans flames, thread bitches harder.
There are GameFAQs threads with less blatant baiting.
OK, /hst/, I'm in the mood to bitch. If I wanted people disagreeing with me I'd go to tumblr or reddit, but I want to preach to a motherfucking choir.
Those of you who have seen Plinkett's Phantom Menace review (ideally all of you) know how this game works. I say a character, you describe them like I've never read Homestuck. But there's a catch. You cannot describe their appearance, summarize their actions, or talk about their job/role. (For instance, for you can't say that Rose has blonde hair or breaks her first gate or is the Seer of Light.) You need to break the characters down to their fundamentals. Go into as much detail as you can.
>John
>Karkat
>Kanaya

Go.
It seems like Vriska surviving would anger a whole lot more people than Vriska dying, so I hope she lives.
Cause people can't seem to shut the fuck up about her.
>>81426490
Considering Sburb is most likely Caliborn's creation, the point of the Zilly weapons are to show that those are what he considers the "ultimate power".
Hussie just wants everyone to be bland, samey, generic "adults".
>>81426518
Cruel world, isnt it?

Honestly I hope a few of the people saying this really do, and make it abundantly clear that it's because they wasted 7 years just to get DaveKat.
Maybe actual, literal suicides would convince hussie to delete everything post GAME OVER and actually put effort in to his writing
>>81426618
Right, and Hussie's message is that people are supposed to... conform to the real world's notion of maturity?
What the fuck? It's literally the most normalfag message of all time.

Kind of ditzy, but determined. He cares about his friends but can be kind of a pushover, listening to others ideas over his own.
>Karkat
Angry, flustered, sort of an asshole with a heart of gold, where he projects this mean kid exterior but is always there for people who need him. He also struggles with feelings of inadequacy and wants to show he's better than what he feels other people think he is.
>Kanaya
Haha, got me there.
>Jane
Emotional, kind of goofy girl who likes to make her own fun, but has self-esteem made of glass. She isn't very confident and could probably ask you 20 times if something's a good idea (and you could say it is every time), but would still be too freaked out to do it, thinking something is bound to go wrong.
>>81426703
Congratulations. Homestuck is a seven year long message of "Grow up, work, consume, obey, die"
>>81426629
Going back to Rose: she's sarcastic, she's fiercely independent and has problems with authority, she's analytical, she has a more whimsical side that she keeps private.
>>81426684
Some of those characters we have been shown. Others we have been told about. The point of the game is to divide the former from the latter. The characters we have a lot to say about are the ones we've been shown, the ones we don't are the ones Hussie told us about.

Full of rage over hidden insecurities. Not exactly an everyman due to shitloads of trauma, but emotional and desperately wants to be accepted. Puts up a front of tough aloof badass but secretly cares about the people he loves, to an emotional extreme sometimes.

A pushover who gradually becomes less of one. Is nice and fairly motherly.

Closet thing to an actual teenage girl. Insecure, can be bitchy sometimes, spends a lot of time fantasizing. Similar to John in that they're goofy everymen who are generally nice. Unlike John, more outwardly expressive and quicker to anger. Also has massive breasts.

For about half a second, she hasn't done anything "motherly" since act 5, and her relationship with Karkat has been HEAVILY downplayed. karkat used to call them best friends but outside of Game Over I can't even remember them reacting to one another in any significant way
>>81426542
>John
He's dorky, has terrible taste in media, but loves shitty stuff so much that it's charming. He always tries to do the right thing.

I tried man. I can't just describe her as "Rose's girlfriend" anymore. I'm taking personalities from before they were fucked over, that's why I'm describing Karkat as pre-retcon Karkat.
>>81426985
>no more sburb exposition, ever
>flash is about to show what happens when a lord beats his denizen
>>81426988
I described him as pre-retcon Karkat, too. But even pre-retcon Kanaya didn't have much personality, and what she did have went out the window after Act 5 Act 1

>>81427070

>>81427060
I mean, I guess.
The problem is Kanaya works really well as a straight man to other people, kind of like how Jade being kind of silly plays well off a straight man. That's a role and you can't describe it though.
>>81427070
JOHN?
>>81427116
Too bad there are no straight men in Homestuck anymore.
Davekat is/isn't happening. Anybody who thinks otherwise is fucking delusional.
>>81427223
That's why Jade's been suffering so much.
>>81427070
what do you mean by game over? like the character before the retcon, or characters who appeared in that flash?
I'm gonna guess Jane

>>81427319

>>81427315
Don't kid yourself. This is Act 6 Homestuck. The only straight thing about John now is a straight, throbbing erection being inserted in his ass.
>>81427344
It was Just. I'm not sure how anybody could think otherwise.
>>81427344
If you still didn't think it was gonna happen after he tried to come out to John then you're stupid.
It's still bad tho.
>>81427358

its not dave and karkat, if the whole thread was about John's robust straightness she'd drop hints of a bi-curiosity stinger
>>81427391
>I'm not sure how anybody could think otherwise.
The argument was that a suckerstab isn't Just, as seen with John, even if it's to prevent deaths because Vriska didn't think Jack would ignore her to kill the others, and that Slick breaking the clock was a big factor.
It all depends on whether a Just death takes into account everything, or if it only deals with the circumstances surrounding the moment of the death in question.
>>81421352
>Doesn't like gay stuff
Come on, the gayer the better. Don't you get it by now?
Vriska's death was intentionally ambiguous, Hussie himself said as such. Slick fucked it up.
>>81427557
its probably all bullshit. Skaia knows all and decides everything. Even the retcon was planned since English was taken into account with sburb being able to do a one player session.
>all the artists that drew homestuck now hate it and consider 'homestuck' a fucking trigger word
what the FUCK
>>81427557
The difference between John getting stabbed and Vriska getting stabbed is Terezi stated her intentions (even if it was in code) and gave Vriska a chance to change her mind.
>>81427431
Id like to know what these guys will do when homestuck ends. Whoever gets arrested or takes prozac for last wins.
>>81427645
how is it a trigger
are you exaggerating?
>>81427645
I don't blame them, Homestuck went to shit.
>>81427645

Good riddance to them
>>81427645
>Except for the artists that have always been shit like playbunny/harumi, paperseverywhere, and ikimaru
>Dave and Karkat aren't even remotely close to the best characters in Homestuck, Karkat especially
>people getting so fucking mad about them screwing and being lame when they've been lame for years
DaveJade is the only good relationship in all of Homestuck, and here's why:
Both characters built on each other in a constructive way. Dave's primary issue is that he has to be the coolkid. In most conversations, he's perpetually defensive, trying to prove that he's really that cool. It's only with Jade (and Terezi, I suppose) that he's willing to drop the facade even a little. Yet nobody except Jade (and maybe Terezi, though it's hard to say what level of irony she was operating on) actually believes for a second that he is cool. The fact that Jade accepts it is what allows him to let his guard down while talking to her. She enables him to move out of his shell and become his own person.
On the other hand, Jade has enormous potential, but no one but Dave recognizes it. Rose mostly ignores her, except for when she wants a prediction, and John regards her as his silly friend but not a whole lot beyond that. Only Dave sees that, with some help, she could become something far greater than she is, and he dedicates a lot of time to helping her achieve that. Look at the client/server relationships: Rose is pretty hands-on with John, but is more concerned with figuring out the game mechanics than helping John out. Dave pretty much leaves Rose alone after she enters, since he knows she'd find being treated like she can't handle herself patronizing. John doesn't really get a chance to do anything with Jade beyond placing the initial entry equipment. But Dave spends a lot of time trying to help Jade figure things out and get situated.
Basically, Dave and Jade compliment and complete each other. No one else in Homestuck has that kind of relationship.

Kanaya is a caregiver first and foremost, hence her meddling in other people's romantic business, giving general tongue-in-cheek reassurances, regardless of what she actually thinks, along with her prim and proper mannerisms. Partially due to this, (but mostly due to her relatively reserved demeanor) she never really connected on an equal level with any of her friends, pretty much all of whom are absolutely fucking insane.
As a caregiver, she tends to get caught up on the wrong side of unhealthy relationships, both platonic and sexual.
>>81427859
John is bland
Rose got real obnoxious in act 6
Roxy is okay at best
Dirk is wasted potential the character.
Caliborn is funny, but he's not a good character.
