I see on Karkat's drawing in the upd8 that Prospit still has its moon and towers. Wasn't it destroyed when the kids went godtier?

Yes, Karkat’s just a shitty artist

Yo, so I just noticed something about this picture while on my third read of Homestuck. Tavros' lips are pursed in a kissing fashion. Is it possible that Gamzee was kissing him? I don't know, I've seen a lot of fan art, and this just looks a little suspicious. It's right after (Retrieve Contraband from chest of whimsy). Even if I love Gamzee, this is a bit weird O.O.

It’s heavily implied that Gamzee made out with his severed head but it hasn’t been shown in canon

do we know whats the "don't turn your back on the body." thing is about? seems like a pretty important and will-blow-your-mind kind of foreshadowing.

It’s just that something happens every time someone turns their back on the bodies.

Caliborn did it and Jake got back up

Karkat did it and Kanaya turned into a rainbow drinker

The meteor crew did and Gamzee stole all the dead bodies (pre-retcon)

It’s a running theme. 

Can you explain who this Jade we currently have now is? Like my friend and i were arguing about her being Jadesprite but i frankly cant recall what she is with all the Oz shenanigans

She was Jadesprite. When Jade ascended her consciousness merged with Jadesprite’s.  So technically she’s both.

Why is Dirk separated from everyone else?

Jade did it

Holdup has it been canon that Porrim's been with everyone? I could've sword she was only with Aranea?

It’s not directly stated, but it’s kind of implied. 

 Porrim refers to trolls passing “thro+ugh the well-greased revo+lving do+o+rs” to her quadrants, 

and Kankri refers to her “innumera6le flushed 9r caligin9us flings”.

What is the frog stage platform thing and why are the kids/ trolls there? How did they get there?

These updates take place soon after they break Jake and Roxy out of Derse jail. The platform is where the door to the new universe will appear once they beat the game. We’ve seen it before with the trolls.  

So what is the ultimate objective of Sburb?

To create a new universe.

Where were limebloods mentioned in the comic?

Calliope mentions them here

Hey my friend said that Kankri's like all about equality for everyone and like a feminist and stuff but my other friend says that he's an asshole and has a big ego..? I haven't gotten far enough into the comic to even meet the dancestors yet(and probably won't for a long time) so could you clarify how Kankri acts and stuff for me if possible? (srry that this is long)

Kankri is sort of like the opposite of Karkat. Karkat yells often and acts crabby but he actually cares for his friends and has some low self esteem. Kankri’s front of social justice and political correctness conceal his judgmental nature. 

how do we know x5 Showdown didn't happen?

That flash originally happened after Terezi killed Vriska but John interrupted and Gamzee was already tied up so there was no need for Karkat to pacify him.

Do the trolls who was killed age? Or was 16 year old Meenah togheter with a 13 year old Vriska?

Ghosts don’t age but Vriska had been in the dream bubbles for a while. So physically yes there is a 6 year age gap since Meenah is 19.

Hey, I'm catching up on the update and I got to MSPA Reader: Mental breakdown, but I think I had a hard time following it and I want to know if I missed anything. Would you mind summarizing it, or if you have already direct me to where I can find it? Thanks, sorry to bother you

That flash was supposed to recap Lil Cal’s journey all the way up until the update where the souls of Caliborn, Arquius, and half of Gamzee were trapped inside him. His timeline both pre scratch and post scratch were a bit confusing and that page cleared it up. 

what's the difference between wigglers and wrigglers?

The word “wriggler” has actually never been mentioned in-comic except once by Roxy here when referring to human babies. I just used the MSPA search function and it wasn’t used by any trolls at all. Wiggler however has been mentioned many times and is in fact a baby troll. 

Why was Jade awake before entering the Medium? Was it her title, or was it some aspect of her personality like Dave/Dirk? Also, were any trolls/post-scratch kids awake before entering the Medium?

So far every Space player has awoken early, so it was most likely her aspect that allowed her to be awake.  The character known to have been awake before their game started are Jade, Dave, Dirk, Calliope, Terezi and Kanaya

do horrorterrors exist out of SBURB/SGRUB?

They’re real, they exist all around you bro.

What does a void session mean

A Void Session means nothing was prototyped before entering causing the session to be bare and unable to create a new universe

Has the storyline ever explained about the countless poorly pixelated copies of statue of liberties buried around where caliborn and calliope were located? Like how it all occurred?

Well Dirk’s Bro invented the technology to print shitty jpegs in 3D.  So that tech was used so that people would know that it’s Earth because “ If you see one or more shitty old Statues of Liberty on any post-apocalyptic wasteland planet, that automatically means it was Earth all along, as a rule.”

Is the B2 session a void session?

Yes

Who used to run this blog? There were like 3 people who used to run this blog that just disappeared forever I swear

Yeah, Mods F, L, and A bit everyone called him “the other one”. They just got tired of running the blog two and some years ago and passed it on. I inherited it from Mod F who I was/am friends with. Two other people also became Mods, but they logged on like twice and then never again so I ran the blog on my own for over two years.
If you wanted their urls, I only know Mod F’s which is Fonixe, Mod L’s has/had lamp in it but I don’t know exact what it is and I have no clue about “the other one”

Do you think Karkat and Kanaya's "PRESSING MATTER" is them repopulating the trolls after the battle, if Vriska knows that do you think Vriska knows that the mission will fail (kinda a guess I just want to know your take on it)

They will most likely have to go to LoFaF and get the tadpole from Echidna like the Condesce tried to get them to do pre-retcon

did the condesce get her mind control powers from the rings prototyping? or did she always have them?

No, she is very old and during the course of her life she experimented on herself to unlock the other troll abilities.

Hey sorry but in a couple questions I saw people referring to sessions as things like B2 and such what does that mean?

It’s universes!
The letter dictates the universe and the number the session.
The trolls universe is the first one that created the humans’ so it’s “A”. Meenah’s session was the first in that universe so it’s A1, Karkat’s was second so it’s A2.
Human’s universe is second so it’s “B”. Beta kids’ session was first so it’s B1, Alpha’s session is second so B2.
Caliborn’s session is C1 due to being the first session in a third universe.

It’s just shorthand to make specifying what universe we’re talking about. It helps when the topic is a universal constant that happens in all sessions like Prospit, Jack Noir, and Detse.

Have you ever considered opening new mod positions?

I just added one and if I choose to add another at some point I already have someone lined up for the position so no, I haven’t.

Like before I was a Mod this blog didn’t explain things like we do now and was pretty much just facts and random shenanigans.

2012 was a simpler time in the Homestuck fandom.

Do you think that kanaya and karkat's important quest could be going god tier?

No, there’s literally a 0.0015% chance of that happened .

*squints eyes* Are you Hussie?

I get that remark quite often but if I was a betting man, I’d put my money more towards the possibility of me being Doc Scratch.

If Caliborn is in a third universe, how does he get lil cal after he was tossed by dirk? Following LCs timeline in the mental breakdown flash, he doesn't transport into a third universe like he did to get to A2.

It’s the same Earth from B2, it gets moved to the new universe. That’s why the Condesce had Jade grab it pre-retcon.

Are there any mods other than mod A and mod T?

Not currently

how would jaspersprite and rose's corpse have gotten into the new timeline, since they didnt tag along with john's power?

But they did tag along, they were both on Lowas with him and Roxy

wait but if caliborn is on the future earth that the alpha kids are on, shouldn't that be the same B universe or am i misunderstanding

Okay, let me explain this. Jade will shrink Earth and capthalogue it. Then the party will create the new universe and enter it. Once in the new universe Jade will resize Earth and millennia later Caliborn will hatch on it.

Would it be possible for a non god tier player to become god tier if they killed themselves on a sacrificial bed or quest bed from a dream bubble? If a moon or planet were created in a dream bubble would their even be a bed to go god tier with?

That is entirely debatable. No one’s tried it so we don’t know if it would work or not. My vote’s on not but again, we don’t know.

gotta love the fhsf lore

Here’s another one, in 2012 this blog got a bunch of hate because the at the time mods provided evidence that John only used :B like once or twice in the whole comic.

do you think dave is albino

Not my headcanon but power to you if it’s yours

why does Vriska want to take down Spade Slick?

Because he’s not on their side currently. I’m really rooting for him to join their war efforts.

Why did PM stab Dave when Bec Noir did? I get why BN did it but...

Her Bec instincts took over and she thought Dave was trying to hurt Jade.

whats your opinion about why dave brought jade to her questbed and died there at [s]gameover? double god tier ressurection?

Dave didn’t take her there, Bec Noir did because whenever Jade would randomly fall asleep Bec would put her in bed.

ok but why do rose and roxy's faces look like that in today's upd8?

Because Hussie drew like 400 pages in a month

i think mod L was tumblr user warpedlamp

Yes, you’re right.

whats a tadpole

A tadpole is a baby frog.

Are you sure tadpoles are baby frogs out of all the things that seems very odd

Are, are you serious?

Do you think Araena is currently in control of everyone or at least just Vriska?

No and no, everyone is acting of their own free will.

Can someone Godtier if they die on someone else's quest bed?

No

In Your Opinion Do You Think This Upcoming Fight Will All Be Shown In A Flash Animation?

Some of it maybe, but I doubt all of it will be

What was the purpose in separating Dirk from everyone else?

Condesce needed him out of the way for a while

Do you think it's possible that Aranea is posing AS Vriska in the recent updates? (aka the vriska we're seeing right now)

No

do you need to be a Prospit dreamer to see the visions in the clouds or can anyone see them if they are on Prospit. Someone pointed out that these updates are all being watched in a cloud, which I had forgotten, and I am trying to figure out who could be watching.

Anyone can see the clouds if they are on the Battlefied or Prospit

Im pretty sure Karkat and Kanaya are going to start breeding frogs like they did before

The tadpole is already made though, they just have to go get it from Echidna (Jade’s Denizen)

this isn't really homestuck related but I was just wondering if mods got to pick the letter they wanted to be

Yes we do. It’s not significant enough for me to assign

What would you say the probability of Vriska's plans falling to pieces are?

Pretty good. I really want them to turn around and the dogs are there picking up Jade.
