July 2015

couldn't you argue that because it showed in up in the comic, it's canon. if it isn't supposed to be interpreted as such, wouldn't hussie tell the artists he gets assistance from to draw characters a certain way.

There’s some many conflicting styles though and they can’t all be canon, so none of them are

does the light aspect attain to only good luck or luck in general? (good and bad)

Light is about Luck, Fortune, and Knowledge both good and bad

Well I did not see that coming

Is nepetasprite now in homestuck (as of 7:02, july 6th)? I have heard she is back , but did not see her last update.

Yes

im surprised nepeta didnt prototype with GCAT (although we could potentially have nepGCATavrosprite^2)

Didn’t everyone think nepeta and gcat were gonna be prototyped together. I don’t think anyone could have predicted this as anything other than a joke.

is there any sort of method to the act structure at all at this point? like is there a difference between the relevancy/significance of an act, a sub-act (like the second "act" in the act), a sub-sub-act, and an intermission?

Basically intermissions are a drastic shift from one part of the story to a very different part of the story. Sub-acts are essentially just a result of intermissions placed in the middle of an act rather than before or after one however this is only true of Act 6 sub-acts as Act 5 Act 1 acted more like an intermission. And an Act is just an overall section of the story usually each having their own beginning, middle and end.

Can you tag spoilers for the upd8 questions?

Dang it, sorry, yes I can do that

Excuse me, I was wondering if there's any canon explanation of why Terezi made John move around all those dragon plushies?

Yes, Terezi was pranking him

so is erisolsprite still alive somewhere?

With the recent reveal of Pre-Retcon Nannasprite, there’s a strong possibility that he is

What the heck was the whole "peachy" thing about? (I wasn't in the fansom when stuff went down so I have no idea what people were mad about)

I assume you’re talking about this from the Trickster Mode part of the story

Well it was originally

Which was supposed to be a joke about how the characters don’t have defined races but everyone always assumes they’re white, but a bunch of people got offended and complained and Hussie was like “Yeah, I can see what you mean” and changed it. 

So now Tavros is essentually screwed the fuck over for Vriskas bitchery

Yes, he’s probably gonna sprite-splode as soon as he wakes up

where did jake get the mouse from?

Vriska probably put it in his pocket

Wait if fefetasprite was created with nepeta's body, how did nepetasprite get made?

Fefeta was pre-retcon, post-retcon Fefeta never got made and so Nepeta’s body was still around

Have Nepeta and Tavros ever talked to one another? Just wondering cause they're not really talking in the recent updates despite knowing each other

They’ve had one canon conversation

I thought moving the plushies around was to cause minor but important changes in Terezi's behavior

TEREZI: 1 W4S 4LMOST C3RT41NLY FUCK1NG W1TH YOU ”  

Ain’t nothing but a lil’black flirtation

Did Hussie do a weird thing for the Nepetasprite update? I read the update last night at like 8 then and throught it ended at Jaseropesprite's foot in the corner then I went to read today's, i notice the go back button wasn't purple like I'd see the link...Or maybe I messed up?

I dunno man, it worked fine for me yesterday. 

so tavos's allergies were a mental thing?

No they were real. He just thought he that he was cured, it’s called the Placebo effect. It only lasted so long seeing as how literally a minute later he was sneezing again

Wasn’t solfef cannon at one point??

Yes, Erisolsprite confirms that Sollux and Feferi were matesprits

Why didn't Erisolsprite spritesplode? Do they like each other enough that they don't?

“ERISOLSPRITE: ii 2hould havve exploded my2elf the moment he 2pawwned me.
ERISOLSPRITE: evvery day iim wwonderiin wwhy ii havvent blowwn my2elf up yet.
ERISOLSPRITE: one tiime ii thiink ii almo2t diid?
ERISOLSPRITE: then ii ju2t thought…
ERISOLSPRITE: MEH.
ERISOLSPRITE: ii thiink the truth ii2 deep dowwn ii mu2t lovve 2ufferiin. “

Hello. I was recently upset by the recent update when Tavros ate a placebo button but was then able to prototype. Do you have any explanation for why Tavros didn't become Tav-button-sprite? Thanks in advance.

button too tiny, and has no qualities for the sprite to use. A Tav-Buttonsprite would just look like Tavrosprite with a button and that’s stupid.

Isn't Rose a bisexual? She used to hit on John and Dave(before she found out he was her brother), right?

Bi, Pan, Poly, she could be any non-monosexual sexuality. Or she could be Homosexual but previously under the sociological ideology that everyone is straight and as most thirteen years do just assumed she was straight.  Basically, she would be anything but heterosexual.

i thought tavrossprite didnt prototype with the button because it came from jasprosesprite, who is a fully prototyped sprite

It was a real button from a real pillow, not a sprite conjured one

As god teirs players cant die unless it is a heroic death, therefore they can't die of old age, correct? So would that mean that they wouldn't age? Do the beta kids still appear 13 while the alphas look 16?

I feel like they should be able to stop aging at their own discretion, choosing to continue aging if they so wished to, but that’s just my opinion.

Do you think that a sprite that has been prototyped twice already can protytipe itself a third time if it wishes to?

Imma say no unless it’s prototyped with a different one tier sprite like in Jasprose’s case

If Gamzee wasn't actually God Tier, why didn't him die when Caliborn shot him?

Plot Armor. If he was God Tier he would have died and come back to life. He was alive for the whole thing. If he was God Tier he would have gotten a Heroic/Just watermark in GAME OVER, but nope, he just died

If two one tier sprites prototype together then would they still have one prototyping left?

Maybe? That’s a good question.

What happened to the zilly-weapons?

They’re around somewhere. We’ll get back to them eventually.

Is it canon that sea dwellers have gills on their necks or is it just a popular head canon?

Head canon

What is Neophyte Redglare's real name?

Latula

Where did hussie state that the in-comic fanart wasn't canon?

The flashes these are from happened just a few hours apart. Now tell me, are both of these canon?

Is redglare's name being Latula ever stated in canon?

No, but the Handmaid’s was confirmed to be Damara and Nanna’s was confirmed to be Jane so I can only assume.

Sorry to bother, but I asked about the frigde's current whereabouts and you answered a bunch of asks after that, so... yeah.

Things get a bit buried on occasion, no hard feelings

But as for your question, I don’t know where it is but since Jasprose got Nepeta’s head I can only assume they have it or put it somewhere.

Is it required to have 6 letters in troll first\last names? (I am making a bankroll so I need to know)

Yes

Overall, with all this these crazy end game indivuals running around, who do you think is the most powerful individual in existence right now? (I will not be disappointed if this one get's skipped over, I'm am just curious about your opinion)

I still think it’s LE. The dude can kill ghosts, no one else can do that.

Yeah LE is pretty certainly the strongest, excessive cheater powers. what about besides him?

It’s probably WV, just you wait, he’s gonna take off those rags and he’s gonna be so swoll. I can picture it now…

so if jaspersprite and nannasprite came over from the game over timeline, couldn't davesprite have come along too?

Possibly

Seeing as the kids were made ectobiologically would it make since for them to not have bellybuttons?

Since they never knew they were artificially made I think they were cloned with bellybuttons, not having one would have been a dead giveaway

Does jade have a talk sprite yet??

Nope

real name? in that timeline, Neophyte Redglare was her real name, where as the time line in which they played sburb/sgurb, her name was Latula Pyrope. With the Hand Maiden, her first name was Darmara, the Hand Maiden was a nick name.

For starters, Neophyte means a novice in a religious order for her it was the cult of the Sufferer and Redglare is in reference to her lusus, Pyralspite. I hate to break it to you anon but Neophyte Redglare was a title. All the ancestor’s names as we know them are just titles.

actually WV might be the strongest character in homestuck if you are going by skill and if everyone was depowered, he was an accomplished war veteran and Rebel leader who nearly took down the black king with his army of relatively weak pawns, no super powers, no op weapons, also he has survived alot, little guys fucking tough as nails

All he wants is democracy (TT_TT)

I'm on mobile so I can't see the flash part of the update can u tell me what happened

A phones is ringing

Did Gamzee survive all that gunfire because he was a highblood? Based on various beatdowns and what Vriska has said they seem to be really resilient. Terezi getting the shit beaten out of her, flung around by psychic powers, and getting impaled AND WALKING IT OFF. Vriska taking an explosion to the face at point blank and living. It would make sense if Gamzee were able to survive all that. Do you believe this to be the case???

That’s definitely one reason.

is it headcanon or canon that the ancestors names are the dancestors names

Canon, here Spades Slick referes to the Handmaid’s room as Damara’s

And I just realized what time it is and I’ve been answer asks for literally three straight hours. Time flies when you’re educating people on a fake thing I guess.
That’s all you’re gonna get from me folks, see y'all tomorrow.

So wait Is erisolsprite still alive in the post-retcon universe?

If he hitched a ride on Lowas, yes.

Why is Gamzee in the fridge?

Because he’s a safety hazard

What happens if you prototype two previously unprototyped kernelsprites?

Black Hole

Im sorry If I keep asking about facts that you've already done, but have you covered that Rose lives on the east coast, and John presumably lives in a time zone that sunsets after EST?

He lives in Washington state, Rose lives in New York state and Dave lives in Texas. Jade lives in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.

If John brought over GameOver!Nannasprite and GameOver!Jaspersprite, and we already saw that Retcon!Nannasprite is alive, do you think Retcon!Jaspersprite is alive and may fuse with Nepetasprite to create Jaspetasprite^2?

I doubt that they’ll fuse. But having two iterations of the same character means that one of them isn’t going to exist for very long. One Jaspersprite became Jasprose so now we’re back down to one. If GameOver!Arquiusprite came over we know that one of them gets shoved into Lord English so that’d put as back to one.  As for the Nannasprites, one of them is either gonna “die” or become apart of someone else.  I guess we’ll find out.
