This is off topic to the recent events, but what exactly *are* the red miles? Are they a power that all ring-wearers can utilize, and what was that green miles that jack used in [s] wake?
Yes, bearers of the Queens’ Rings (or at least carapacian wearers) can unleash the Red Miles.
The Green Miles are the Red Miles infused with Green Sun energy
So is AR/Hal/Cal/Dirk's glasses a bad guy? or is it just his abilities of being some kind of all knowing God that make it into Lord English that make him seem that way?
Wouldn’t say Lil Hal is a bad guy, more of an instigator than anything
Since Jane healed her dreamself, does that mean if she dies (heroic or just or whatever) she'll be dead for good? Or is it different since it was her dreamself?
Just want to say thanks so much for keeping up with all of the dumb bullshit, weird time shenanigans, and general craziness of Homestuck to a near obsessive level for all this time. You are a treasure to this fanbase!
Thank you so much! I have a knack for understanding time shenanigans so it’s always a pleasure helping other people try to figure it out :3
what is the role of the denizens? also, what were the role of the horrorterrors?
Denizens are kinda like sages, they assign quests to their players and give them information. However since they are usually quite monstrous a lot of people just end up fighting them.
Horrorterrors are the dark equivalent of Skaia, and in a similar manner they are meant to influence and persuade the direction all things take
do you think karkat is safe from dying while hes fighting lord english cause hes asleep?
Honestly, I don’t know. If they were fighting anyone else I’d say he was safe, but since LE can kill ghosts, I’m just not sure. There’s a possibility he could die for real.
Sorta stupid question. Where is Caliborn? Because he is talking to his Denizen but I thought he was like becoming Lord English? Or are there multiple versions of him?
He’s in the core of Earth/The Land of Colours and Mayhem. The popular theory is that there’s multiple Caliborns, but it’s yet to be proven in canon, so stay tuned.
Why did dead Callie turn back into a cherub that one time when Jade was explaining/writing her story post-retcon? I understand it is because she got impatient with Jade side tracking the story, but it is very unlike Callie to have an outburst like that. To simplify the question, why did Callie start acting a bit like her brother?
Calliope is supposed to represent the Homestuck fandom and Hussie called her “the obnoxious fandom avatar character.” She did what the fandom does when we see a pause from the story which is get really upset.
Do you think if a ghost gets stabbed/strangled/etc (separate from how they were initially killed) in the dream bubbles, they'll double-die, or will they sort of. Regenerate. And the only way to double-die a ghost is using the amount of energy that Lord English has to essentially wipe them from existence.
They’ll regenerate, LE is the only one that can kill ghosts
Could you explain the multiple Caliborn theory thing?
Basically,
the theory is that the Caliborn we’ve been following in story isn’t the Caliborn that will become Lord English and is from an alternate timeline. This Caliborn focused more on art and less on combat. This would explain why Hussie stopped talking to him abruptly and why the Caliborn in the masterpiece was surprised by things. Surely, if the Caliborn we’ve been watching who had seen the fight had been the Caliborn in the fight he wouldn’t have been surprised. If Art!Caliborn was the Alpha!Caliborn then there would be stardust in the current post-retcon timeline as well, but we’ve seen no trace of it and John hasn’t been back long enough to blow it all away.
"I'm Caliborn, we went over this last 4/13." ~Mod T. My theory is that you are secretly Alpha!Caliborn and are currently in the process of transforming into Lord English, and Art!Caliborn is the one speaking with the Denizen. You plan to off him as soon as you get the chance. #TheTruthIsLoose
Well you’re not entirely wrong. BUT I WILL NOT HAVE TO OFF THE DUMB ART ME, HE IS WEAK AND YOGURTBONER WILL KILL HIM. YOU SEE YOLOBROTH IS THE STRONGEST ONE OUT THERE WHICH IS WHY HE IS MINE SO THAT I WILL LOOK EVEN MORE COOLER WHEN I KILL HIM MYSELF WITHOUT THE HELP OF MY PLUSH FROG PEOPLE OR THE CLOWN.
Not very important but It appears that Hussie edited the first page so it says "It just so happens that today, the 13th of April, 2009, is this young man's birthday" instead of "It just so happens that today, the 13th of April, is this young man's birthday."
Yeah, he went back and did that to several earlier pages.
Hello again, I was rereading the Game Over arc and had a question about Aranea's powers. So, when Jade gets overpowered by Jake's Hope Field and ko'd, how did Aranea tip Jade's house over onto her? Aranea's hand glowed and I think the tower did, too. These don't seem like her God Tier powers, so what allowed her to do that? The Ring of Life? Or was she manipulating the power from the Hope Field? Thanks!
She’s was mind controlling a group of Damara ghosts into using their telekinesis
i have adhd and i have a hard time readying the pesterlogs/diologlogs do you know if there was any extension that world make it better??? or something else?? sorry fur bothering u!!
question cause im confused about something. in the prevous timeline it showed an au where vriska wasn't killed by terezi, in that au the trolls were killed by bec noir because vriska's god tier-ness attracted him to the trolls, after this vriska engages in battle with jack noir and dies. in the current timeline vriska is alive and well, but how come that in the current timeline jack noir didnt kill the trolls because vriska was alive?
Because John knocked her unconscious so she could go mess with Mr. Noir
Hey, IIRC didn't Hussie hint that one of the acts after the gigapause would only be one page long? Is that the case or am I imagining it? And if it is true, do you think that that would have to be act 7?
Yea, it’ll probably be eoa6, followed by one last intermission, and Then the final flash of Act 7 on 4/13
Could you tag upd8s? I'd love you forever if you could try to tag upd8s. ;u;. Not just for me, but a lot of people I know are waiting until it's over before getting to read them all in one go and I feel it's unfair to them to have to avoid the fandom completely in the meantime.
Ah, sorry, I’m really bad about tagging upd8 but I’ll do my best
how do u know it's still 2012 in homestuck right now ?
April 2009* +3 years** = April 2012
November 2011*** + 5 months**** = April 2012
* When the Beta kids started playing Sburb ** How long the Beta kids traveled to get to the Alpha kids *** When the Alpha kids started Sburb **** How Long the Alpha kids have been playing Sburb
Wait wait wait. A6A6A5 is still not over, but next upd8 will be EOA6. Did Hussie forget about about A6A6A6? I mean it WAS in Caliborn's cartridge thing
Caliborn's recollection about the capturing of Beta kid's souls and fighting with the Alpha kid's, when did that happen and will we ever see it (in forms other than Caliborn's play)?
It happens in the future, I don’t know if we’ll ever see in in non-clay form, I guess we’ll find out within the next two weeks
if gamzee is locked in the fridge post-retcon, how was jack english created and how were the cherubs raised? he was integral in both of those things happening
Well he’ll be dumped in Earth’s ocean and eventually get out and raise the cherubs so that stays the same.
In the last 2 newsposts, Hussie hasn't said anything about Homestuck ending. This isn't likely, but what if it's Act 7, everything is being a happy, satisfying conclusion........ then Vriska does something that ruins it all and then we have Act 8.
