Where did "I got up at 5am and made all these damn pancakes" come from?

This post

how could vriska time travel when doing all of the things she did in the post-scratch session?

She had Aradia’s Temporal Music boxes

A time player isn't necessary for a doomed timeline to be created. There was a doomed timeline created where Terezi didn't kill Vriska, and Vriska went to confront Jack, with the alpha timeline still being the one where Terezi did kill Vriska, with no intervention from a time player.

That wasn’t a doomed timeline, that was a possible timeline that would have ended with everyone being doomed, completely different thing.

if a time player comes from a doomed timeline, are they automatically doomed? What happens if the version from the alpha timeline died, but a doomed version came in? Sorry if this doesn't make sense

Yes they’re still doomed even in the scenario you suggest

Would it be possible for someone to force their way into a session from the planet, or would the game have accounted for that already?

They could use the teleporters in the Frog Temple, but if a session is in progress all indigenous life on the players’ planet should be dead

There was a time when Cronus thought for a moment that he found Problem Sleuth, Ace Dick, and Pickle Inspector, right? But they were just carapacians?

Yes, that happened in Openbound Part 2

What evidence do you have for it not being a doomed timeline, exactly?

It didn’t actually happen.

If all sessions are accessible by the medium, would it be possible to travel to or invade someone else's session or universe?

I suppose so

I know its never really addressed in canon, but do you think identical twin trolls would be possible?

I’m not sure, I don’t know enough about insect genetics

It was stated that the black queens ring cant effect humans, but is it ONLY humans? Can it effect other species? Or does it only work on carapacians?

It most likely only affects carapacians

Time clones from doomed timelines are indeed doomed eventually. But, what of Davesprite's case? A future Dave who should have been doomed went back, programmed himself into the kernelsprite, and was eventually programmed with Nepetasprite to become Davepetasprite^2. While fighting Caliborn with the Undertale reference, I don't recall Davepeta being defeated but I may be wrong. But now that the session is over and the game is complete, would Davepetasprite^2 still be doomed or no?

Davepeta is an entirely different entity connected to every version of their components and thus I feel that they are beyond that doomedness

how

Specify

how exactly did the trolls find the kids, again?

Terezi had Dave send her past self money 

I've been sent quite a bit of hate for the way I draw trolls, is it ever directly stated that trolls look like humans with gray skin and horns? or can their anatomy be interpreted differently? thank you!

Nope, it’s never stated that they look just like humans, draw them however you like. I personally always enjoy seeing them when they’re drawn more insect-like.

Can someone modify their dreambubble setting just by thinking about it?

To an extent

how would one transport their dead dreamself to their planet?

You go get it and bring it to your planet??

In your opinion, what are the best "scenes" (dialogue wise) in homestuck?

Anything involving Caliborn, Dave/Equius rap off, John/Tavros interactions, Davepeta, John/Terezi flirtations. Honestly I need to reread everything I’m sure there’s some gr8 ones out there I’m not remembering

Again, what evidence do you have that it never happened? Homestuck takes a lot of cues from many worlds theory, which states that when there is any probability of two outcomes happening, they both do, creating separate timelines. It's presented as a very real possibility that Terezi may not choose to stab Vriska, which would imply that there is a timeline in which that happens.

It’s presented as a timeline Terezi sees might occur, there’s no real evidence outside of that saying it didn’t truly happen but there also none supporting that it did.

What determines a troll and their ancestor? Like, how does a troll find out who their ancestor is? Are they related ectobiologically? Or by blood?

Most trolls never learn about their ancestor as they likely lived several hundred sweeps apart. Usually they’re related by blood but in our trolls’ case it’s ectoiology

why is mod t so rude...? people arent always all-knowing like you, why the attitude?

I sometimes have trouble with tone, feel free to let me know if my sarcastic nature is veering into the poopypants territory.

Does latula have a canon land?

No

If John can do the windy thing before he got God Tier that mean Caliborn can do the time thing and Calliope the spacy thing before they got God Tier or they can't because they are normal biology and not ectobiology?

It really depends on their classpect. Like Karkat shows traits of his title but you wouldn’t really classify it as a “bloody thing” because it doesn’t appear to be some sort of magic.

What are the limits of John's retcon abilities?

None really, he can go anywhere and anywhen and do whatever he pleases

Do all Derse dreamers have to go grimdark, unless they find a way to avoid it? And what are the ways to avoid it, other than... wearing shades???

No, Rose is the only character in Homestuck to go grimdark

About the ring of the black queen, didn't the condesce had it and that's why she can use chucklevoodos?

The Condesce never used Chucklevoodo and the ring she had was the Ring of Void

The how did she (the condesce) controlled Jade and GCat? The signs of Vriska and Tavros appeared when she starts controlling them

Vriska and Tavros don’t have chucklevoodoos. The Condesce got those blood caste powers by experimenting on herself but she never used chucklevoodoos from what we’ve seen. 

Didnt eridan go grimdark or just was that my imagination??

He did not go grimdark

Are Davepeta and Jasprose in the new universe with the rest of the gang?

Unknown

How did jade go Grimbark again? I know it had to do with influence of the condesce, but how exactly?

Condy was partially controlling her via the bronze-blood animal communing ability. 

As much as i love Gamzee's juggalo jargon personally Atomic double Juggalo backbreaker will always be my favorite scene.

I love Terezi too much for that to be anywhere near my list

I for one like Mod T a lot.

My favorite Gamzee quote has to be the one where he says he sneaks up on a bottle of Faygo and snaps it's neck like a laughsassin

TC: cRaCk……
TC: HiSsSsSsSsSsSsSs.
TC: mOtHeRfUcKiN kIcK iT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't forget the ouija penis scene... so iconic

So iconic that it’s the Act title for Act 6 Intermission 2

is grimbark different than grimdark?

Yes, Grimbark is a parody of Grimdark

Do the mods have a favorite <3< ship?

Mine would have to be Johnrezi. You can see all my ships here

I think my favorite Gamzee quote was his dying noises when he got sawed in half.

fave/least fave homestuck kids/trolls?

Roxy, Dave, Equius are my favs kid/trolls. I have no least faves, I love them all

Is the "no game constructs in the new universe" thing canon or fanon?

Fanon

On the best scenes in Homestuck thing. The Dave and Terezi conversations where they draw over gifs with their glasses and stuff are pretty great

if we're talking about iconic moments can we talk about how sad that scene was when Dave was looking at his old polaroids?

Dude, I remember when that was upd8 someone actually found the exact burgerking that Hussie drew Dave’s reflection in. It was wild

random question: do you know if the map is ever going to get fully updated?

I have no idea my dude, maybe when the epilogue comes out

when a player ascends via quest bed, will their god tiered form appear where their dreamself is (so it normally would be prospit or derse?) or would their dreamself became part of their dead body, so on their planet, or would they be teleported to a third location?

They are teleported to the Battlefield

Is Jane's dad the only guardian/parent that lived?

Yep

do you know how many times dirk and jake have kissed?

nope

are there any in canon explanations about the sacrificial slabs (as opposed to the quest beds)??

Yeah, Calliope explains em

i know hussie used to joke about fedorafreak rising to god tier but thats not actually possible right?? was he a player?? i assume none of the guardians wouldve been able to since they didnt play sburb

He was a player, but none of the guardians were

Why did Condy suddenly leave Earth in the beta kids' world, instead of taking it over?

She probably knew it was going to get destroyed

Wait, fedorafreak was a player? Was he from a different session or universe?

Yes he played in a different session

Since Jade prototyped her sprite with her dreamself and Bec, when she went godtier her sprite, due to its dreamself part, was merged with her, causing her to go Dogteir. I know it's sort of a joke (God and dog having the same letters), but if a player prototyped their sprite with their dreamself and something more ordinary (like the mangled harlequin doll), would it have a similar effect? What about a dreamself and another human/troll?

From the information we have so far yes, it would have a similar effect I suppose. If you prototyped your sprite with your dreamself and another person and you then died on your slab\bed, then your dreamself would godtier as an amalgam of those two people. 

Wait who was fedorafreak
