Do we ever hear what happened to Vriska's god tier wings

Troll god tier wings are removable so she probably just took the them off.

Has anyone ever beaten the game Sburb yet?

Karkat’s group beat Sgrub which is essentially the same thing.

DaveKat is not canon, said by Karkat himself I quote: " NO NO NO NO NO NO NO" - Karkat Vantas

A. Karkat could be embarrassed to tell John about his relationship with Dave, it’s not outside his character to do something like that.

B. Davekat could be pale, they obviously are very close and Dave was able to calm Karkat down pretty well.

C. Or they could just be buds, whatever

Either way yesterday’s upd8 didn’t disprove anything.

whatever happened to Dirk during the aftermath of [s] Game Over, when he and John were floating around in the debris? and does that have anything to do with why he hasn't been in any of the updates since Caliborn's claymation clips?

After Game Over Dirk was overcome by a mass of stardust.

But that doesn’t have anything to do with why he isn’t in the upd8s.  He isn’t around because Jade teleported him outside the incipisphere and he’s currently flying back.

The wings aren't removable so much as they can be hidden under their clothes. Gamzees came off because they were fake

Right, yeah, my bad, you’re right.

If davesprite is dead, is he in the dreambubbles?

He does seem to be dead, and Davesprite himself wouldn’t be in the dreambubbles but the Dave that became Davesprite would be.

Is the vriska in this current timeline god tier? I'm very confused about how she was/became god tier on the meteor with all the trolls and I don't remember how it all happened... It wouldn't make sense for her to be God tier right now though because she's just wearing her normal outfit I'm v confused pls help owo

She ascended in [S] Make her Pay.  And they don’t have to stay in their god tier outfits, this isn’t the first time she put her normal clothes back on.

Dave once trolled Tavros so hard Tavros blocked him.

GCAT and all of the Pesterchum and Trollian handles (including John’s old one) can be abbreviated to combinations of the letters G, A, C,  and T which represent the four nucleotides that make up a sequence of DNA. John changed his handle to EB, however, which represents Ethidium Bromide, a DNA intercalater that fits between base pairs and makes DNA visible by dying it blue!

John likes to play Crash Bandicoot

wasnt there a scene where rose rode on an ogre down a river or whatever, and then roxy's mom (also rose) rode on guy fieri down a river too?

Yes

Yes

If it was stated that once you choose the strife specibus it becomes permanent, how come some players have more than one?.

A strife specibus is just a card and once a weapon is assigned to it it can’t be changed, but if you get a different specibus card you can assign a different weapon to it.  Like how John found a bunnykind card and then could use stuffed bunnies as a weapon.

for devices like the skulltop and whatever jane was using on page ?s=6&p=007423 do they use their minds to control the device and type on pesterchum or is it like phone calls because jake was able to cut jane off in the middle of the word "tomorrow" (GG: Actually, why don't we just talk about it tomor- GT: Okay we can talk about that if you insist.) but then later jake said she was going heavy on the caps and it made it seem like shouting. very confused o_O

My guess in that situation is that with Jane’s headset probably worked by her speaking into it and it converts that into text and it reads the replies to her. And Jake’s skulltop might convert speech into text but not text into speak so he still reads the messages. This way they’re conversing in real time giving Jake the ability to cut Jane off and to not know that she is shouting at him.

Who has the most Strife Specubi? Also do you think it's going to be stated or implied John gives Rose her Needlekind back? Maybe she doesn't need it?

John, Dirk and Equius all have three.

Equius has Fistkind, Bowkind, and Halfbowkind.

Dirk has Bladekind, Puppetkind, and Fncysntakind

John has Hammerkind, Bunnykind, and Needlekind

John didn’t give Rose her Needlekind as she’s seen using it before she interacts with him in the Post-retconned timeline.  So either she made a new one or gained enough tiers so that she doesn’t need a specibus to use a weapon anymore.

I didn't think the beta kids handles were based on DNA...I think it's just the alpha kids and the post-scratch trolls

The Alpha kids and Beta kids’ chumhandles are literally the same letters. 

Jane and Jade are both GG
Dirk and Rose are both TT
Dave and Roxy are both TG
Jake and John’s old one are GT

I started rereading Homestuck and I'm at the first Intermission. And there is this scene where Die pushes Spade Slick's pin into his doll. This allows Die to jump to the moment when Spades died. But instead, he jumps to Alternia(?) and it says "How many times does he have to tell you. He made this town." I'm confused. How does Die appearing in Alternia(?) prove that Spades made the town?

Spade Slick founded Midnight City on post-Sgrub Alternia. When Die teleported to a timeline where Slick died and the city wasn’t there it proved that Slick did in fact “make the town”.  Slick is alive, the town exists. Slick is dead, the town doesn’t exist.  Therefore for the city to exist, Spades Slick had to be alive to make it.

What's everyone's current age? :o (mainly the kids)

16 in story.  And so that no one will argue with me: The Beta kids were all 13 in April 2009 when Homestuck started then they spent three years travelling so now they are all 16.  All the Alpha kids were 15 when they were introduced in November 2011 at the start of Act 6.  In story it is currently April 13th, 2012. Dirk, Jake, and Roxy’s birthdays are in December and Jane’s is April 13th so now they are all 16.

Trolls are also 16, or 7.38 sweeps.

If I remember correctly, the alpha kids aren't related, rignt? They're clones of their guardian selves, no mixing.

Yep.

I was totally gonna argue with you over the kid's ages, so thanks for preempting me. You win. Preemptively.

Nice sarcasm, but if I didn’t explain I would have had people argue that they were 19 since that’s how old they would be in real time or something stupid like that. 

John actually has a fourth strife specibus in umbrellakind.

He found the umbrellakind but he never picked it up. At least that we’ve seen. When he made am umbrella weapon he said:

It suddenly seems worthwhile to you to go nab that UMBRELLAKIND STRIFE SPECIBUS that’s been lying in the study for a while. 

But we never saw him go back for it.

if the alpha kids are clones of their guardian selves then why does jade call herself jake's grandma?

Because Jade’s post-scratch self raised Jake and she was old so Jake called her grandma.

Actually I seem to remember Dirk and Roxy being introduced as a year older than Jane and Jake. Could you check for me please?

They were born in the future so their birth year isn’t the same as Jane and Jake’s but they are the same age.

where are the act titles found aside from the wiki

You go to the website and click Map up at the top and then go to Homestuck and the Act titles can be seen there.  Or you can just click on this.

Andrew recycled many concepts directly from Jailbreak to varying degrees, including horses and biting ones own leg off.

Let’s not forget the infamous Pornography sword

Why wasn't Vriska's death just or heroic when Terezi killed her on the original timeline? She was god tier.

It was a just death, that’s why she stayed dead

how did the alpha trolls meet the beta trolls?

Dreambubbles

Is John a year younger than the other kids?

No, he and Jane are just a few months younger than the others.

?s=6&p=007153 Aren't the kernelsprite and the cruxite totem supposed to be orange?

No, Dave’s sprite is orange like Dirk’s text and Dirk’s is red like Dave’s text. All the kids’ sprites are like that.

How did the Alpha Kids and Beta Kids get from where ever Caliborn's Masterpiece took place to where most of them are now in the updates? Or was that something from the future using Time Shenanigans?

The fight in Caliborns masterpiece hasn’t happened yet. Caliborn saw it happen in the future in the screens on his planet and based his masterpiece off it.

yeah but wasn't he the last of the four to turn 13? and since the other kids birthdays are all in December wouldn't that make him a year younger or even possibly a year older if I was wrong about him being the last to turn 13. im just saying what I think to be true,i could very well be mistaken

He is only four months younger. He is the same age, born in a different year, yes, but still the same age.

is gl'bgolyb a lusus or a horrorterror?

Gl'bgolyb is Emissary to the Horrorterrors but is still a lusus.

*quietly whispers* everyones going on about Dave being bi or pan but is there a possibilty he's asexual and maybe panromantic or something along those lines, or is there something to disprove this? sorry, i dont want to take this away from people. it was just a thought i had. sorry.

There is nothing to disprove any of that. He could be anything under the queer umbrella.

What are some examples of post-scratch skaianet products? I know that grandma english built products to compete with betty crocker, but are there any specific examples like names/pictures/sources?

All of Jake’s LE themed computers.

why are people so obsessed with finding a label for dave's sexuality. he is a teenager still figuring himself out, im sure he doesnt know what he is either. when i was dave's age i definitely hadnt figured myself out.

Everyone is just trying to find representation of themselves in a story. That or they really want to justify their slash pairings.

what is the matriorb used for? what does it do?

It’s an egg of a Mother Grub which is what takes the trolls’ reproductive juices and turns it into baby trolls.

hey could you please not call it the "queer" umbrella? i know its thrown around here on tumblr but its very much a slur and can be triggering :(

alright, if you say so I won’t use it on here.

While we're at it, Vriska is totally black for Jake and you all know it.

No, she’s just a massive dick. That level of insult and dismiss is very much abuse which isn’t what a kismesitude is.

If you are playing SBURB and have braces do they magically come off when they need to or do they come off when you reach god tier? Or do you have to go through however long your session is with braces even if you were supposed to get them off soon?

Well dreamselves are how you want them (like Tavros’s being able to walk or Vriska’s having both eyes) so if they died and became their dreamself/god tier then their braces would be gone. Otherwise they’re stuck with them.

Okay so a great example of what a kismesitude is based on Karkat’s explanation in recent upd8s would be kinda like Naruto and Sasuke’s relationship at the beginning of the Naruto series were they don’t really like each other but also admire one another with the possibly of arguing, mild insults and a kiss.

Would SBURB cure my Diabetes?

If you want it gone and can become your dreamself, sburb can theoretically get rid of any bodily issues.

Is there any reason equius's horn stays broken off when he's a ghost or god tier?

He likes it that way?

do you think that means that godtiered players can still do dream stuff (like jade's growing extra hands to play her guitar) or is flight the only dreambody power they keep?

No, once the dreamself becomes the main body it looses its abilities. Including flight but ascending to god tier returns that ability.

I don't know what that other anon is talking about but queer is not a slur, it's a welcoming term for all people of LGBTQIA spectrum is all

I agree with you but there are enough people left in the community that consider it a slur and/or are against reclaiming it that I entirely don’t mind omitting it from my Mod-ly vocabulary.

So, is it accurate that Dave could have repaired his swordkind specibus, (seeing as John was able to repair his hammerkind when it was broken into handlekind) and he just didn't?

Yes because of his time swords. If a weapon is altered while in use like when Dave’s sword broke the specious changes with it to avoid leaving the user unarmed. Dave created several half-swords that had temporal abilities allowing them to move along their own timeline to before they were broken or forward to when they were, effectively allowing Dave to change his bladekind into halfbladekind at his disgrestion.

Could my dreamself be a different gender than I am?

Maybe, I don’t know if the dreamself bodily manipulation has a limit, but considering Jade could add several arms I don’t think changing genitals would be too far out of the realm of possibility.

Why do trolls get wings when they turn god tier, but not humans? If adult cherubs are supposed to have wings already, would Caliborn have a pair of god tier wings as well as a pair of normal cherub wings?

Trolls are an insect based race so getting wings makes sense.

Caliborn doesn’t have wings because he predominanted too early so basically he was never allowed to go through cherub puberty and get them. And cherubs dont get wings upon ascending.

did you just imply that genitals = gender

No, but I assumed that that’s what they were referring to since we were talking about bodily modifications. If I assumed wrong I apologize and would urge the original asker to specify what they were asking.

Would a nonbinary person's God Tier be affected by their genitals, or would they be assigned a gender-neutral title?

I’d assume that they’d just get a gender neutral class.
