What have to be your favorite random facts you know?
My favorite forgotten fact is back in 2013 when the homestuck fandom was still horrible and hated. Everyone thought homestuck was going to end soon so other fandoms started being nice to us and fandomstuck was born (one of my top favorite homestuck memes)
Why did Dave have to look at Derse's sky without his shades?
So that he could hear the horrorterros better
why did the beforus kids have to scratch?
Because if they didn’t they wouldn’t have been born, or hatched I guess
wait when did dave start crying over his selfies?
When he finally got back into his house after three years
Thank you guys for keeping up this blog and helping us with things we might not know or understand. I have learned a lot of things and am glad to be a Homestuck fan
No prob bob. You guys want to know stuff about things I know and I feed off of attention so it’s mutually beneficial.
I'm confused. How was game over Rose's death heroic?
Because it wasn’t Just and Hussie needed her dead
why is/was there so much hate for homestuck fandom?
Oh boy, you sweet innocent angel. Read this if you dare
Are grub scars canon or fanon?
fanon
who is the best?
Serenity obviously
Mirror Mirror on the wall, who's the Dankest of them all?
Quarters
What am I supposed to do with my life after Homestuck ends?
Cry, curl up in a ball and wait until Hiveswap comes out
how many mods does this blog have? does one person know all these things?
There are 2 of us. I (Mod T) have been a Mod here for three years and Mod A has been a Mod for almost a year now.
hello! im like, leafing through and all and i vaguely remember this one part where john and jade were on the BIG SHIP and decided to play an online game together but i forgot where and what that was all about. could you help me with that please?
Ghostbusters II MMORPG
Has tavros said fuck?
Yes
What's Hiveswap??
the video game I paid over two hundred bucks for
I don't know if you've already answered this or not, but at which page does Karkat say fuckass? Like, if memory serves correct he says it once, but I can't remember where he says it.
Here
Would a session go null if the black king were to be killed before the reckoning?
Maybe..?
HE LP TUMBLR WONT LET M E POST OR REBLOG ANYTHING AM I THE ONLY ONE GETTING THIS "YOUVE EXEEDD YOUR DAILY POST LIMIT" THING
That happens when you post more than like 250 things in a day, welcome to tumblr 101.
How do you even remember all of this? I doubt Hussie even remembers all of these obscure facts.
I don’t remember everything, I just know the right places to look
The new update is there!
Is it just me or does the art style make it read differently? Like I just can’t get the characters’ voices to sound normal, the art has altered them in my brain.
What was the barcode on WV's (the mayor's) wrist?
It’s to signify he’s a clone.
"I don’t remember everything, I just know the right places to look" that shit sounds like something the old master says to the student and it turns out to be the most important thing
Because it is. Here’s some examples from today:
Someone asked for the online game John and Jade played on the ship. I knew there was a pesterlog between the two and that it was in one of the earlier Act 6 intermission so I went to the wiki all up on John’s page and took a peak at his pesterlogs in Act 6 he’s had with Jade and boom, found it.
Or when someone asked when Karkat has said fuckass, I jump on over to MSPA’s search feature, click all up in Act 5, Ctrl+F fuckass until I find it.
What flash game did Meenah was LE was hot in? I clickity clack my way to the great resource of readmspa, go to their search feature of Act 6, Ctrl+F “hot” until I find the convo and get the link.
It’s all a matter of how you manage your resources and prior knowledge.
Why did the beta kids initiate the scratch?
Their session was doomed and they needed to reboot for another chance.
Where did the condesce come from?
She’s the troll empress who has a bunch of troll powers and she also likes baking and genocide.
Hey! Since it's been like over a year since HS last upd8ted, I was wondering if you could put together a quick summary of what's going on right now? I think everyone would love a reminder of whats going on in the comic right now seeing as its about to end, and you have such a good memory of HS...
Voidrogue posted one.
How did the whole Eridan/Feferi/Sollux thing go down (the one where Sollux got KO'd)? I was half asleep when I listened to the CollabHQ reading of that, so I don't really remember.
Sollux and Eridan dueled and Eridan k’od Sollux with his wand and Feferi got mad at Eridan and went after him with her 2x3dent and he blasted a hole through her chest and killed her.
Whats the difference between Aradia's blood color and karkat's? Aradia talks in red text but she is a rustblood and karkat isn't
Aradia has rust colored blood but Karkat has a mutation where he has bright red blood which is a color that’s not on the hemospectrum.
Hey I was just wondering, what does the Scratch actually do?
Already answered this.
can condy use her mind powers to control trolls? because I'm drawing blanks and with the update having kanaya on derse with the rest of the team, i have a bad feeling about it
Yes, her mind powers control trolls and can put humans to sleep. But the mind powers only work on weak-willed trolls and Kanaya is anything but weak-willed.
Regarding the barcode on WV's wrist, is there any mention on how they were cloned? Also, what is that casino Robot SS was speaking of in the recent update?
Casino is mentioned here. The carapaces were cloned in labs on the meteors on this page.
i think i missed something earlier in the comic, so could you maybe tell me where exactly dad egbert is?
Dad Egbert kicked the bucket when Bec Noir killed him.
Where did the condesce get all her powers, and what is her goal exactly?
Faq.
In today's (3/29; spoilers) upd8, does Roxy's sword hold some extra-special significance beyond what Roxy says to John? I've totally forgotten where we've seen it before.
It was the sword belonging to Dave’s bro.
What IS the scratch technically? I know what it does but, what is it and how do you trigger it?
You trigger it when you scratch the surface of the construct on the Time player’s planet in a special way with quills from Echidna. It acts as a reset button and reboots the session.
When do you meet the alpha trolls? Like when is the first interaction?
The first time we see an alpha troll is on this page when Jake sees Aranea.
Why is Jake's last name English when Jade's last name is Harley?
Already explained this.
how is the condesce piloting her ship if the helmsman died in the vast glub?
She can probably do it herself, the helmsman just made it go fast
Just a quick question. Does John say that he watches anime/reads manga or is my mind just playing tricks on me -.-
While talking to Jade, John says:
EB: well, i saw you once in a neat outfit…
EB: it was kind of like you were torn from the pages of my favorite japanese mangas.
It indicates he likes manga while also being a call back to when Jade made the outfit
While wearing this outfit, you almost feel as if you were ripped straight from the animes!
do you know what happens if a character dies when dreaming? like not as their dream sprite/self whatever, but if theyre sleeping and in a dreambubble like karkat atm and they die/get killed in the dreambubble? thanks!
If they are killed as their dream phantom they just wake up. It’s happened to John a whole bunch of times.
Why is Jane fighting the condesce? wasnt she with nannasprite? Wasn't she supposed to be on healing duty with jasprosesprite...what is happening?
Yes, healing duty, as in she’ll be teleporting around all the battles.
I'm not good at articulating things, but I have a question. How is Dave sprite still a thing when normal Dave has already reached god tier. Dying on a quest bed makes you into your dreamself. So, how are there still 2 Daves?
Davesprite was made with an alternate timeline Dave, not his dreamself
When is the conversation where dirk says he's proud of roxy?
‘s right here
is dave alive????
yes
What's the current sylladex of everyone?
Sollux: Encryption Modus
Aradia: Ouiji Modus
Gamzee: Miracle Modus
Kanaya: Chastity Modus
Vriska: Upgrades 8-Ball Modus
Terezi: Scratch and Sniff Modus
John: Queuestack Array Modus
Rose: Tree Modus
Dave:Hass Map Modus
Jade: Probably one of her many game themed modus’s, we don’t know which she is currently using.
Jane: Recipe Modus
Jake: Puzzle Modus
Roxy: Message in a Bottle Modus
Dirk: Tech-hop Modus
Dad Egbert: Wallet Modus
Calliope and Caliborn: Juju Modus
Did Jade retain any sprite power after going god tier? Because her dreamself was a sprite, but she doesn't seem to have inherited the sprite features.
I’m sure she still has all that cryptic sprite knowledge
Does half-dead half-blind Sollux still have psionics?
That’s a good question. He helped Aradia throw the meteor back in A6I1 so Im going to say yes.
29/03 upd8 question: How is Karkat in that desert place if his dreamself blew up back on Prospit during Sgrub? Is it some sort of dreambubble shenanigan? What happens if he dies in that dreamland?
Dream Phantom. If someone goes to sleep without a dream self they wake up as a dream phantom in the dream bubbles.
There was a couple who named their child after the shipping JohnKat. Did their parents ever regret their decisions and changed back the name or was JohnKat and their parents never heard of again?
Oh, you mean little John Karkat? Apparently that was fake.
Can Caliborn use anything form his sillabex?
Yes, he can captchalogue and retrieve any item now. We see him use it in Act 6 Intermission 4
Has Sollux ever referred to Eridan as "ED" in canon, or is it a fanon nickname?
That’s fanon, but it’s based on Sollux’s tendency to refer to people by just two letters (tz, ff, kk, etc.)
