How is ARquiusprite pronounced? As in, is the A and R said as letters or sounded as 'are'quius? Or to make things even more confusing would you actually say 'auto responder' as that was what it was called? (Sorry if that doesn't make sense(Thank you))
who are dads egbert/crocker? the bros are dave/dirk, mom lalondes are rose and roxy, and jades grandpa is jake (i think) and jakes grandma is jade (i think), so who are the dads in relation to the story? i think johns dad is nana (jane)s son so would that make janes dad johns future alt timeline son? im sorry im just very confused and dont get why they werent raised by each other, if that makes sense
Dad Egbert is Nanna’s son she had with an unidentified suitor. Dad Crocker is Poppop’s son that he had with an unidentified wife. They’re two separate people but they look and act very similar.
Actually, I think it was mentioned in one of the Openbound games that Latula's lusus was an old dragon while Terezi's lusus was an egg, so odds are the dancestors don't share lusi!
Inside the egg was a dragon, she hatched on this page.
I just caught up with homestuck for the first time, and id like to ask: am i correct in assuming that the hore calendars show when the new updates come out? Also, what time do the new updates come out?
Yes, the horse calendars are the days that new updates come out. The comic usually updates in about half an hour. It updates at midnight in some undisclosed European country, but if you’re in the United States it updates in early evening. In the west coast it usually updates around 4 pm I believe and around 7 pm in the east coast.
Kankri actually didn't have a lusus though, right? I thought he had been raised by some highblood because his blood color indicated he needed to be "coddled" or something
Yes, sorry I forgot to mention that. No lusus would chose a mutant to rear unless they were genetically modified like crabdad was. Kankri was most likely raised by a highblood since he was a lowblood and that’s what being “culled” meant in Beforan society.
(Horse Calendar Anon) sorry, im being a bit stupid really, but, for example, since the new update is tomorrow, would it come out for americans today or tomorrow?
If crabdad was specially designed, do we know who or what did that?
The cult of the Signless made sure there was a lusus bred to recognize a mutant blood’s scent because they knew another “Signless” would be born, namely Karkat.
Where does it say that every instance of a universe, including doomed and scratched timelines are inside the same Genesis Frog? I thought the red miles destroyed the whole universe so how could the post scratch not be affected if it's just somewhere else in the frog?
The post-scratch universe was effected, the Red Miles reaches post-scratch Earth in 2422 and was how Roxy died the first time.
Female Lusus Equivalent, where do trolls come from?
Trolls hatch from eggs laid by the Mother Grub. Adult trolls fill filial buckets with their reproductive fluids and the Imperial Drones bring these fluids to the Mother Grub. She combines the fluids all into one incestuous slurry and lays thousands of eggs at once. They hatch and appear as small caterpillars with heads but later pupate into a humanoid.
why did terezi tell her past self not to date dave?
She didn’t, it was John who suggested that she refrain from dating him. Her not dating Dave allowed him and Karkat to become friends immediately instead of being at odds over Terezi.
how come the alpha and beta trolls never ran into each other on prospit/derse? did they have separate moons for the sessions or i guess universes? oh and this goes for beta and alpha kids too
where do first guardians even come from? I mean, doc scratch was engineered, but what about Bec and GCAT?
They were both created via ectobiology. The Draconian Dignitary created Bec and crockertier Jane created GCat. This is how all First Guardians are formed.
What's the difference between a matesprite and a morail?
A matesprit is essentially a romantic partner whom you can reproduce with. A moirail is your soul mate but in a more platonic sense. They pacify you and function as a balance for you emotionally.
On the subject matter of grubs, is the physical form of baby trolls (grubs) shown in-comic, or is it just a fan-adopted thing that gradually became the official look?
You said that the Mother Grub is the one who makes the eggs, but do the trolls, whose DNA that was used for those eggs, ever get to see the grub(s)? Or do they kind of just go on in life while the grubs grow and get their own lususes?
No, the ancestors of the trolls have usually been long dead when the grub is hatched unless they’re a very long-lived blood caste.
I was the anon who asked about Eridan's reason for his magically rage attack (thanks for answering). I was pretty satisfied with the answer but then I saw the notes and people saying it was false. Do you have a source for Eridan admitting he was just trying to mess up their quadrant or a source that he was just trying to get Feferi to go with him?
In [S] Kanaya: Return to the core Eridan speaks with Feferi telling her he wants to join Jack Noir and that she should come with him.
Wait, there already were a ectopiologist creation of Gcat? Where?
In [S] Act 6 Act 6 Intermission 1 you can see crockertier Jane with GGat at an ectobiology station so it’s been implied that she was the one to create GCat.
Is there ever any point in which they explain why Damara only speaks Japanese? Are their any widely accepted theories on this???
She speaks in an East Beforan accent which is just bad Japanese put in Google translate. She speaks bad English around the humans but only speaks Japanese around other trolls because she likes to say inappropriate remarks and they can’t understand her.
I noticed that those considered Highbloods all have a blue mix to them. (In the sense of red mixed with blue is purple, yellow mixed with blue is green and then just blue) Is it possible this can go with the saying "blue blooded" when referring to rich people?
"Were sollux and aradia ever matesprits?" You answered that they were moirails, but they were dating before aradia died. They broke up because sol was upset that he killed her
I said they were most likely moirails. Hussie stated on his formspring that he’d rather not spell it out.
If you go godteir, would you still dream on derse/prospit?
If you’re a godtier then you only have one life and you dream in the dream bubbles. See all of John’s adventures in the dream bubbles on his three year journey.
For the ask about Terezi telling her past self not to date Dave, I always assumed she meant Karkat since technically Dave didn't even exist at that time and she had just had a conversation with Karkat and after he had disconnected she sent a <3 so I guess I'm just confused on how that could equal her saying she shouldn't date Dave?
