What are horrorterrors?

Already explained that.

who put the tea set and bed in skaianet labs? was it rose's mom?

Yes, Rose’s mom put them there.

Is it a fact or a common headcanon that highbloods are rarer than lowbloods?

Lowbloods have shorter lifespans than highbloods and Doc Scratch calls them common and that they have “strength in numbers” so yes, it is canon.

which alpha trolls made it to god tier in their session

Meenah and Aranea have confirmed their ascension. Mituna said he could not remember and Damara would not answer the question. The other alpha trolls said no.

So Bec Noir is essentially a cancer on two universes, right? I can't remember if the kids' and trolls' sessions count as different universes.

Noir is the ‘cancer’ that Karkat says he gave to the human’s universe. The sessions take place in the Medium which is separate from their universes. So yes, the kid’s and troll’s have different universes but only the human’s universe is cancerous. 

Is it mentioned how the alpha kids met?

Dirk and Roxy received technology from Calliope to chat with Jake and Jane from the future. In doing this she laid the foundations for their session.

is it "wiggler" or "wriggler"?

Wiggler

is lil' cal the first guardian of calliope and caliborn's session?

Sessions don’t have First Guardians, planets do. 

Was the situation in which Terezi was able to be close enough to figure out Karkat's blood color (their "moment") ever actually explained?

Their MOM3NT was never explained.

random felt fact?

The Felt are leprechauns and they display their romantic intentions by dancing and singing riddles which means that Clover wanted to be in a relationship with Caliborn. 

After the game is beaten what will happen to all the sprites that are alive?

The details of the endgame situation in the game haven’t been discussed in-comic but my guess that the sprites may not be able to leave the Medium and enter the new universe with the players since they’re game constructs. I don’t want to say for sure though. 

where did the Mayor's firefly go?

Serenity was last seen here with Roxy.

Was the wallet/8 ball modus combination done through the alchemiter or through the thing john uses to combine his

It was most likely done with the alchemiter.

If Lil Cal was used to create Doc Scratch, where did the Lil Cal used to create Lord Jack come from?

That Lil Cal was the one Gamzee had, in the green suit. 

when aradia was killed why did her ghost remain on alternia instead of going to the dream bubbles (which i think already existed because the alpha trolls reside in them)? is it because the game hasn't begun yet?

Yes, it was because the game hadn’t begun yet.

Has it explicitly been said why rose won't follow her quest?

After learning that their session was null, Rose no longer wanted to play by the rules or play to win. In this new session Rose may be motivated to complete her quest since it looks like she will need the grist hoards of her planet to help Skaia give the Genesis Frog nutrients.

do god tiers age? is it possible for them to alter their form to stay any age they want, or do they age normally? because if the latter is true that means sooner or later all of the kids are gonna be really fucking old and wrinkly and still wearing brightly colored pajamas

I’m not sure if the godtiers will age completely. My guess is that they’ll age until they’re adults and then stay that way, eternally youthful. 

difficult question: was shown in the canon what each class does? If not all, what?And what do they do? (if you want to link instead of writing in the post, fine by me)

Calliope explains the abilities of Princes and Bards here and discusses Rogues and Thieves abilities here. The other classes are left to speculation but some fans have come up with a pretty cool mass Classpect post. A class determines how the player will use their aspect so each combination of class and aspect can have a wide range of powers. 

Aren't Meenah and the others 9 sweeps old, or are they the same age as the beta trolls now?

Meenah and the other alpha trolls are 9 sweeps old. The beta trolls that are alive now are about 7 sweeps old. 

If the game affects the players and the area around them, does that mean that the people(if there were any) living around John are dead? Or is it as if the Kids are the only humans left on Earth?

They were probably killed by the massive meteor that John escaped by entering the Medium. When the kids use their cruxite artifacts they’re transferred into the Medium, which is a separate dimension.

are there anymore FHSF lore/facts/whatever that you can share? kinda interested now lol

Check the forgottenhsfacts tag. 

Didn't Dirk say to Jake that he pretty much "Raised his own damn self" from the stuff Alpha Dave left for him?

Yes

I'm so confused about Vriska yelling about not touching the sprites, because in the beginning of Homestuck, John highfived his sprite, before it was prototyped twice. By Vriska's logic, he should've gotten prototyped with it. ??? (I wouldn't put it past vriska to be wrong though lmao)

Sprites who’ve only been prototyped once have been touched before without being prototyped again so she’s most likely wrong. 

What did rose see in the cueball(or what its called, the thing where you can see answers and what Doc Scratch was prototyped from) that made her grimdark? And didnt Vriskas ancestor have it first?

There are multiple cue balls that have been dispersed by Doc Scratch. She asked the cue ball whether the Horrorterrors were benevolent and this caused her to go grimdark. What she saw wasn’t shown but the answer was obvious: they’re not.

is mituna having those red and blue veins on his forehead canon?

No, his face is never shown.

You are so sweet thank you for helping confused fans

Thank you and we’re glad you enjoy the blog.

In part of the recent updates Vriska mentioned Gamzee has "plot armor" and that she will probably throw the fridge into the ocean on earth when all is said and done. Being that Lil' Cal is also in the ocean and both he and Gamzee are on Caliborn's earth, could this be how Gamzee got there? just chillin' in a fridge until earth dries up and a cherub lays an egg there?

Yes, that’s most likely how he got on post-scratch Earth unless he finds a way to get out of the fridge. 

Is Dave albino?

The kids’ appearances have been left to the reader. That’s why the sprites are blank.

has hussie ever stated what he called each character since they were named by the fans at their introduction? like before karkat was named maybe he was "candy red/grey troll 2" or dirk as "orange human" in hussie's head

He said in an answer on his old formspring page that he based each of the trolls off of super heroes. As for the kids, he drew up their character profiles before Hs started but left the naming up to the fans in the suggestion box.

Do sprites prototyped with a player still retain their original class/aspect abilities?

We never see Davesprite use any sort of time travel and Jadesprite’s teleportation abilities were because she was prototyped with Bec. Aradiasprite never used any Time abilities either. Roseprite has mentioned that her “abilities” will help in placing the fenestrated panels at the most useful locations. As a Seer of Light, she can see can fortuitous paths and the best choices so it may be that a player must be a godtier and then be prototyped to retain their class/aspect abilities.

hey someone asked about davesprite being alive isn't there a chance he could still be alive and come to this timeline like jaspersprite did when he brought rosesprite to this timeline.

Pre retcon Davesprite’s fate is unknown. He could’ve easily hitched a ride on Lowas like Jaspersprite did or he could’ve died. But considering how important of a role he’s had so far it would be a little disappointing to just have him die off-screen.

ONLY READ IF YOU HAVE READ THE UPD8!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! how did Vriska get the warhammer of zillyhoo?

It’s probably the one that Gamzee had here

Considering when Dream Selves and Prospit and Derse were explained, the least I could say would be I was a little confused. If you wouldn't mind explaining them in more simpler terms compared to Homestuck's explanation, it would be greatly appreciated! c:

A dream self is an extra body for the player that remains asleep until they’re woken up. Everyone’s dreamself can be awoken differently. They can change their appearance but lose this ability if the main body dies. If the player wants to ascend on their Quest Bed then the dream self must be alive. When the player dies on the bed, their dreamself will ascend to godtier. If the player uses their Sacrificial Slab, which is located in the center of the moons of Derse and Prospit, then they don’t need an extra body. 

is Jake and Dirk dating?? Im confused about it

No they’re not dating currently. Dirk broke up with Jake during the Trickster part (epilepsy warning for that page) although later on he said he regretted how forceful he was with Jake’s courtship and that him and Jane should’ve talked earlier about their mutual interest in him. 

kinda irrelevant, how does the boon system work, like its boon to boon buck boonbuck to what?

Boondollar

Boonbuck (1 million boondollars)

Booncase (estimated to be 1 trillion boondollars)

Boonbond (1 quintillion boondollars)

Boonbank (unknown value)

Boonmint (unknown value)

Is luck in the domain of light players, or was that just Vriska, because I don't remember Rose doing anything that involved luck.

Luck and knowledge are the domain of all Light players. Aradia refers to Rose as a “knower of all fortune” because she can see the most fortuitous paths. Vriska is a Thief of Light that steals luck and information for herself. Aranea is a powerful Light player that has gathered knowledge over time and is prone to having certain 8r8ks in her favor. 

i just saw a post saying how the beta kids souls were sucked out and are stuck in a house or something (hence homestuck) but ive never heard anything about that??? did i forget or is that not actually a thing cuz i got no explanation from that post

It happens on this page during their fight with Caliborn. 

apologies if this has been answered before, but im forgetting my lore. Did terezi go blind due to an incident or was she simply created blind?

Terezi was blinded by Vriska, she wasn’t born that way.

Im REALLY confused about what happened when the trolls went on a murder spree and half of them died. Could you just explain that part?

Vriska killed Tavros because she didn’t like him and she was also being a bitch. Gamzee killed Nepeta and Equius after he became sober and looked into Lil Cal’s eyes. Eridan dueled with Sollux and knocked him out. Feferi thought Sollux was dead so she went to stab Eridan and he killed her with his White Wand. He then killed Kanaya but she came back as a Rainbow Drinker and sawed him in half.

where is the lily pad with the door to the new universe located in a session? Is it in the center of skaia or?

It’s beneath Skaia.

regarding the ask just answered a bit ago about the Scratch and needlekind--I thought Bro initiated the Scratch in the beta kids' session, but doesn't he use bladekind?

Bro tried to initiate the Scratch but he didn’t succeed. A player needs Echidna’s quills to cause the Scratch

is it canon that eridan stutters on his vs and ws???

He doesn’t stutter, he has an accent.

I recall you said all of the trolls in Karkat's session were based off of superheroes? Who was based off of who?

I found these on Hussie’s old formspring page

Aradia - Jean Grey

Sollux - Cyclops

Tavros - Professor X

Nepeta - Wolverine 

Terezi - Daredevil and Two Face

Gamzee - Joker and Two Face

Eridan - someone from Harry Potter

Kanaya - someone from Twilight

Feferi - underwater hero

Equius - strong guy

Vriska - “ hell, take your pick from her powers buffet”

Karkat - “ :( ………. he has red blood at least!”

I'm really confused about all the Jacks, can you clarify?

Spades Slick is the Jack Noir from Karkat’s session, he changed his name to Slick to make the Black Queen mad since she hates Bilious Slick. Bec Noir is the Jack Noir from the Beta kid’s session. Lord Jack is the Alpha kid’s Jack Noir.

Was it ever stated in canon that Terezi has a 'crazy voice'

John calls her voice weird here.

can you tell me why all the adult trolls left alternia? is there another reason except for exploring space and conquering other planets?

The Condesce sent them away from Alternia to prevent another rebellion like the one caused by the Summoner.

Hey, is Jade's patrion troll Karkat or Tavros? My friend said it was Tavros, and I always thought it was KK. I'm confused.

Karkat is her patron troll. He helped her extensively throughout Act 5 Act 2 and helped her coordinate her plan to escape her session in [S] Cascade. 

its still not clear what happens after they finish the game. was it ever explained?

They go through the door that appears underneath Skaia once Bilious Slick is done growing and enter the new universe. 

Is what ever happens after they enter the door mentioned? I don't recall it ever being confirmed, unless Scratch or Hussie mentioned it somewhere.

No, we’ve never seen what happens after players enter the new universe.

Do the Dersites and Prospitians have quadrants? Or is it regular human romance?

Yes, Dersites and Prospitians can experience the full range of quadrants.
