●

Is Doc Scratch's blood color white? or is that just stuffing? (Forgot the panel number... sorry!)

It’s stuffing.

●

Is the genocide of the lime-bloods fanon or canon and regardless of which, who caused it?

It’s canon and the details of their extinction are unknown.

●

Davesprite mentions it here and John and Terezi say it here.

When does John free the fireflies on LOWAS?

●

If someone alchemizes a juju that already exists. Would the new one or the old one cease to exist? (Caliborn's red sucker and Calliope's green lolly)

The old one will cease to exist. 

●

i don't really keep up with the latest in homestuck news. how's the development of the game goin? there is gonna be a homestuck game right? or maybe i just imagined the whole kickstarter.... idk... i don't trust my memory anymore.

The Homestuck adventure game is titled Hiveswap and is scheduled to release in mid 2015. You can find out more about the game on its website.

●

Im actually asking this because i want your opinion: do you think its a coincidence that Lil' Cal and Doc Scratch are both puppets?

Doc Scratch was made from Lil Cal and a white cue ball so it makes sense that he was a puppet. 

●

Does anyone know how hiveswap will be released? I heard it would be for pc, and that it has a steam page, but I'm not sure. Any definite info, or not yet?

The release date hasn’t been announced yet.

●

so what happened between meenah and vriska? i quite literally couldn't read that much text id also like to say thank you bc for someone who's unable to focus and whose head hurts when i read the comic with so much same colour text you have helped me a lot

Meenah left punk Vriska to go with post-retcon Vriska. Punk Vriska was last seen crying. Meenah and the post-retcon Vriska went to gather a ghost army but discovered that pre-retcon Tavros had already done so.

●

how do rose and jade become grimdark?

Rose became grimdark because she looked in the white cue ball to ask if the Horrorterrors were evil. Jade going “grimbark” is just a pun on her being possessed by the Condesce with the animal control power. 

●

When terezi rocked out on the guitar?

I haven’t been able to find the dialog or panel where Terezi plays the guitar but I’m sure she’d be very good at it. 

●

this is probably dumb but how many quadrants can a troll fill at one time?

A troll instinctively tries to find balanced mate in each quadrant. 

●

In your opinion, would this world be better if it were Alternia?

I wouldn’t switch out my mom for a lusus, sorry. 

●

do equius and feferi ever talk?

Please refer to the FAQ, anon.

●

Actually last time we saw punk vriska she was with game over terezi (last update)

Oh, yeah. I apologize, I’d forgotten about the flash.

●

who is the blood aspect denizen?

His name hasn’t been mentioned but Karkat talks about him here.

●

How does vriska type the word bait?

88.

●

To answer AetherBae, it's during [s] interfisshion

Terezi wasn’t in there.

●

how old are the beta/alpha kids?

All the human kids are 16.

●

can a player ascend to god tier if their dream self is dead

Please refer to the FAQ.

●

This is a stupid question, but how do sweeps work again?

1 Alternian sweep is equal to 2.16 Earth years.

●

Does the comic ever explain why Mindfang begins to call Darkleer the Expatri8?

She calls him that because he was excommunicated by the Highbloods when he couldn’t bring himself to kill the Disciple.

●

Where is the Handmaid right now?

She was killed by the Condesce.

●

So wait. If two players have the same God Tier aspect, does that mean they have the same Denizen?

It’s very common but not exclusive. Yaldabaoth was assigned to Caliborn, a Time player and Dirk, a Heart player. 

●

Are all the post-scratch trolls the same age as the human kids, 16 earth years?

The post-scratch trolls are roughly 7.3 sweeps which is about equal to 16 years so yes, they are.

●

Doesn't it say on Karkat's birthday that six sweeps is equal to thirteen years? That would make each sweep 2 1/12 years.

I’m just going by what it says on the wiki.

●

Where is the Condesce now?

On Derse

●

Do dead selves' eyes only go blank after they realize they're dead, or are they always blank?

They go blank once they realize they’re dead. 

●

How do trolls use buckets to reproduce?

The Drones collect their reproductive fluids in buckets.

●

how is gamzee mysteriously able to be in certain places like callie's birth or when he sold jane potions even though the meteor hasn't made it to the new session yet?

Time travel

●

Do either of you think you'll ever leave the Homestuck fandom and close this account down?

Nah, I’d never delete this blog, there’s too much prime content. So it may become inactive at some point in the far off future but it’ll still be here.

●

Can a Troll have a moirail, a kismesis and a matesprit all at the same time, while also being auspistice for a couple?

Yes as long as one single troll is involved in more than one of those relationships

●

How did the condence get psionic powers

Please refer to the FAQ.

●

When did Calliope and Caliborn play chess?

Here. 

●

why did eridan destroy the matriorb? and kill kanaya?

image

From Hussie’s formspring.

●

why did dirk decapitate himself?

Answered this here and here. 

●

Is Gamzee's cod piece a juju?

No

●

If sprites are called (name of second prototype) sprite, then what about the alpha sprites?

They aren’t named after their second prototyping. They are named after the most sentient being that was prototyped.  The alpha sprites are made from two equally sentient beings so the name is shared. I’m not sure why Gcatavrosprite is named that especially since Jadesprite wasn’t Jadebecsprite. 

●

I was wondering what god tiers have the ability to fly. I know that all the trolls (except Karkat) would have wings because they are insect based. If a god tier couldn't fly, in what situation would the player be able to fly? Thank you!

All god tiers have had the ability of flight. Just because the Vantas’s don’t have wings doesn’t mean they can’t fly, humans don’t have wings either.

●

Has John ever killed anyone

Lots of imps and shit but no like real people

●

Are tz and sollux cannon moirails?

no

●

In the post-retcon timeline, does Gamzee still have Nepeta's scratches on his face?

Yes

●

"Yes as long as one single troll is involved in more than one of those relationships" I did not understand, could you please clarify?

that should have been “isn’t”, my bad. Like Karkat can’t be someone’s moirail and hatemate. He can only be in one quadrant at a time.

●

If a character has died for good (as their dreambubble has been destroyed via lord english) can they still be brought back as a sprite?

That’s unclear but I’m going to say no since they don’t have a ghost to be summoned.

●

Okay, so my friend and I are Heir of Space and Knight of Void. Is it possible to win the game with those two alone?

You need a time player. Space and Time are always necessary for a successful session

●

When a sprite is created, their dead selves/ ghosts are no longer in the bubbles and they can only be in one place at a time, correct?

That’s right

●

Is vriska left handed? (I know thats a dumb question but i need it for a theory)

Yes, I believe the trolls are left handed except for Karkat who is right handed.
