If in reality hey only traveled for three seconds, how did they age three years?
So for in comic characters moving at normal speed (ex. Spades Slick, Ms.Paint, etc) the battleship took only 3 seconds to move between the walls but to those on the ship it lasted 3 years because they were moving so fast through space that they moved through time at a rate significantly slower than usual. The concept applied to this is a real thing called Time Dilation, I recommend you look into that for a more thorough explanation.
How did jade get her dog ears? Were they a result of her kernel sprite?
Jadesprite is Jade’s dreamself and she was prototyped with Bec so when Jade died on her Quest Bed, Jadesprite went godtier and she retained some dog features including his ears.
Time Dilation works the opposite way, though! If you're going super fast (or, more accurately, accelerating to a super fast speed then decelerating back down) then LESS time passes for you than for people that aren't moving. I'm pretty sure that it's just because The Place Beyond The Fourth Wall Is Just Weird, or Hussie might be Making It Happen Thru Narrator Majyyks
I don’t know much about physics, and I’ve gotten a decent amount of messages like this so I’m inclined to believe you. My bad.
How are the Beforan trolls the same as the ancestor, if that makes any sense? Thank you!! xx
The ancestors are the same Beforan trolls just under different conditions. This is mainly seen through the Condesce’s behavior since her and Meenah are very similar.
Do all yellow blooded trolls have the same powers as sollux? Or is it only for certain individuals. Is this the same for mind control with blue bloods and same with the powers of rust bloods?
Aranea states here that
blue bloods
only occasionally have mind control powers. Vriska states here that yellow bloods sometimes have those abilities like Sollux and that telekinesis is common to rust bloods.
A friend and i were talking about a situation where you wind up with a knight of space. Is it said anywhere in canon that ONLY knights can help the space player breed frogs?
No, it doesn’t even say in canon that a knight has to help with the breeding, that’s just fanon theory.
In [s] Wake, when aradia reaches godtier, it was in her sacrificial slab, in derse's(I think she was dersite) moon, so since she saw the slabs, shouldn't that mean she has memories of the slabs? Do you think other dersite trolls could godtier via dream bubble? It would only work for the beta trolls, since I'm pretty sure we haven't learned how meenah and aranea godtiered, and they might have memories of the slabs too, and the memories might not work as a method of ascension. What do you think?
Possibly, but the only remaining alive non-God tier troll that was a Derse dreamer is Sollux.
Rainbow Drinkers are essentially the Alternian equivalent of Twilight vampires. They can withstand sunlight and radiate light. They can also run very fast. Kanaya and Porrim’s conversation in the Openbound flash games confirms that the condition is directly related to jade blood. Kanaya theorized that jade bloods developed the condition after being in the dark birthing caverns for so long while Rose theorized that they developed the abilities in order to scare away predators from wigglers.
Ancestors are a concept in troll society that are responsible for contributing a greater proportion of their descendant’s genes than the incestuous slurry from which troll eggs are produced. They share their descendant’s signs, horn shape, and blood color. High bloods tend to put more stock in their ancestor’s existence while low bloods don’t usually care about them too much. Because of the reproduction process of trolls, ancestors are usually long dead before their descendant hatches. However, they may still be alive if they’re a long lived caste.
Ok so I know you've already done Dave and Dirk's eye color ask but the pictures won't load for me and I was wondering if you could screenshot them and post them? It's ok if you can't. I love you guys btw. Best Homestuck facts I've seen. Keep up the good work :)
Have Sollux and Aradia ever met in person before Aradias death (not counting when he killed her)? And what did Sollux mean when he said to Aradia in front of the Green Sun that he could only see 2D, could he see her or anybody at all?
After Sollux was first knocked out from the fight with Eridan, wasn't he completely blind? If so, how did he go from that to half-blind?
Okay, this is kinda difficult to explain, so there was blind sollux and a ghost sollux and when blind Sollux died the two kind of merged into a half-ghost Sollux that was blind in one eye. And then pre-retcon the ghost was sucked out to make Erisol so then he was 100% alive but entirely blind.
We don’t actually know how that works, it probably has something to do with him having two dreamselves.
When do you learn about Feferi being the Beforan empress?
Aranea speaks about their Empress here. She never mentions that it was Feferi but we can tell it was her pre-scratch counterpart based the fact that Culling in Beforan society means what Feferi wanted to change it to on Alternia when she was empress.
I never understood this - if the Alpha session needed a fully evolved Battlefield, and the beta's Battlefield had the Mobius Net, why didn't Jade take the net with it? The Battlefield she has now isn't the "fully evolved" one, right?
It’s fully evolved, the Mobius Net is needed to stop the Battlefield from being destroyed by the Reckoning. There will be no Reckoning in the Alpha session so the Net isn’t needed.

but could jade have known that already when she took beta!skaia before it got scratched away?
Probably not, but she could have not resized it and kept it with her if the Reckoning happened.
do you know where Karkat laments that the Alpha timeline would not allow him to be successful? I think he is specifically talking about how god tiering for him was only in doomed timelines
He talks about his problems with the dreambubbles and doomed timelines here.
Hey, has Terezi done anything important? (My friend says that shes just an annoying nobody, and I would like to prove them wrong)
Well, she did write the instructions for John to retcon the timeline which resulted in an infinitely better Alpha timeline where everyone is happy so I would say that’s pretty important.
Where does "Caliborn's Masterpiece" fit in within the timelines? Did he see the future of the new alpha timeline, or is it from a random doomed timeline?
It is most likely the future of the current Alpha timeline.
UMM HELLO MOD A I WOULD LIKE TO SAY GAMZEE IS NOT HAPPY AND KARKAT IS NOT HAPPY SORTA HELLO.
Karkat seems pretty happy with Dave and all his friends and Gamzee’s probably having a great time in that fridge. I’d rather him be there than getting up to more rascally clown stuff.
Fridges can suffocate you, and he can't get out because he's probably tied up, so not fun. And the Karkat thing is debatable, because he's sorta angry about him not being the leader. And I forgot about Jake, who is getting verbally beat down by Vriska.
I was joking about him having a good time and I’m sorry if I offended you. I’m actually ambiguous towards his current situation. Jake has found a good friend in John and possibly Tavrosprite. Karkat may be given a second chance at being a leader considering that Vriska is leaving soon. I was being lighthearted and didn’t mean to upset you.
