so what's the difference between the sufferer and the signless ? is it just different names for the same person?
Two names for the same person. He was the Signless in life, the Sufferer in death
Two names for the same person. He was the Signless in life, the Sufferer in death
Entirely possible, I suppose we’ll have to wait fourteen days to find out
I consider any part of Homestuck not done by Hussie to be semi-canon.
Guest artists are going to have their own biases and preferences reflected by their art which I feel is a product of but also goes against Homestuck’s ideology that all the characters are essentially blank slates that the readers can interpret in any way they like.
Instances of Guest Artists using personal interpretations of characters (in these cases Karkat) can be seen in Collide and Game Over. In Collide when we see Karkat dual-wield sickles, but that’s the only time we ever see him dual-wield. Or in Game Over how Karkat is animated having short sleeves when we have always seen his outfit having long sleeves.
Like Steven Universe, Homestuck allows its art team a full range of creative control with how they draw characters, and there’s nothing wrong with that, it just lets certain content get into the comic that wasn’t laid out by the Huss-man himself.
So to answer your question on how much of the credits/snapchat content I view as canon; All of it, in varying degrees.
Mspa search feature is very handy and for stuff I can’t find with that I usually have a pretty good idea of where in the story it took place to use as a starting point
but I guarantee you it is not all easy. Some posts I have to spend 15, 30 minutes finding the answers to, hell I’ve spent a good hour and a half looking for answers before. Typically the longer I spend looking for an answer the less notes that post gets lmao
I don’t know about the Ring of Life, but I know she said she’d like to give the Ring of Void to the person she was going to marry
Equius! As for why, I think there was just something about a creepy kid that no one really liked that 16 year old me was really drawn to and he’s just stuck with me since.
Also when I say no one, I mean no one. Equius was like the least popular character back in 2012, there was next to no fan art or anything for him. The same thing could be said about Nepeta. It wasn’t until the short lived late-2012 memes of “with Equius” and “Nepeta’s dead” that the fandom as a whole started to appreciate these beautiful children.
Universe C is the universe created by the kids’ session. They also took B2 Earth to Universe C which eventually became home to the Cali twins. The Earth doesn’t go through a Black Hole until Caliborn starts his session and it just goes to his medium.
Possibly? It is a prequel spinoff so I don’t know how much it could affect the main story but you never know, it could explain you a thing or two
Given those two’s relationship and individual personalities, I’d say that any flirting had to be at least 80% ironic
Most Paradox Space comics are not necessarily canon to the main timeline. Except for at least “The Inaugural Death of Mister Seven“ and “Vrisky Business” which Andrew Hussie wrote














I know it’ll probably be in Hiveswap but I would like to have a 100% confirmation on if Grandpa Harley adopted Mom Lalonde or not. But other than that, I wanna know some deets about the mysterious white frog in my header
Karkat and Kankri have mutant blood which would be a disability in troll society.
Tavros is/was paralyzed.
Sollux is bipolar, Mituna has his brain injury
Meulin is deaf
Terezi is blind and pre-retcon she suffered from some kind of post-traumatic stress about killing vriska and (I don’t know if you want to count it as a disability or not but i’m gonna list it anyway) he self-esteem was obliterated by her abusive relationship with Gamzee. Post-retcon she was constantly put on a guilt trip by Vriska about Terezi killing her in that alt-timeline.
Latula can’t smell, and has some other non-specified disorder that she takes meds for.
Vriska’s a BITCH, and was also missing an arm and an eye for awhile.
Gamzee is…Gamzee…I’m not gonna talk about him,
Kurloz doesn’t have a tounge.
Mindfang lost an arm as well
I think that’s it. If I left anything off lemme know.
It’s not 2012 anymore, everone can agree that vriska is not good now
people used to ship him with
Hidekaz Himaruya
, the author of Hetalia
All the guardians sans Dad have canon names, they all share names with their pre/post scratchselves. This is shown with Nanna saying her name is Jane, and the Handmaid being referred to as Damara by members of the Felt.
Maybe mildly towards the end of the story, but feel like it was more of a “really sad/bored” depression and not quite to the disorder/disability level, but maybe that’s just me.
But it’s not like a 50/50 split like it used to be. You can say Vriska was bad without getting blasted with discourse.
I think they just have a scar there, idk, we don’t have a lot of info on them
Andrew Hussie
Jake is John’s genetic Father
It was a Problem Sleuth game not a Midnight Crew comic and it could have been the Warhammer of Zillihoo since that debuted in Problem Sleuth and items can have more than one cost, but I suppose we’ll never know for sure
You can send messages to my personal homestuck blog (strong-zahhak) for more opinion based questions and answers and discussion
Davepeta said they were depressed when they were Davesprite on two occasions, so at the very least Davesprite has canon depression. But no, Dave Strider, the alpha timeline Dave, does not canonically have depression (although lets face it, he probably does)
If you try to teleport something from the past that already has a future trail into the present you create a Ghost Imprint, which is basically a pile of goop containing the genetic makeup of whatever you tried to teleport.
John took Grandpa (Jake’s) and Nanna (Jane’s) ghost imprints and mixed them together and created himself and Jade. Which makes Jake and Jane their genetic parents. He did the same with Bro and Mom’s ghost imprints to make Dave and Rose.
As for adoptive relationships:
Yep, post-scratch guardian seers do seem to have the ability to get small visions from their pre-scratch lives
When Hussie gives exposition on the Pre-scratch trolls in Openbound he says, “[Kurloz] chewed off his tongue and sewed his mouth shut because he’s a weirdo in cahoots with Gamzee and English.”
That’s subjective but he definitely isn’t the best person/troll out there
Forgotten Homestuck Fact: Grandpa Harley landed on Earth as an infant in 1910 making him 84 during Hiveswap, which takes place in 1994.
So if Joey is around 13/14 years old then Grandpa Harley would have been about 70 when she was born. Old Dad.
He used his Sacrificial Slab. You only need one life to use them, that’s how Aradia, Rose, Dave, and all the Alpha kids were able to ascend despite only having one self left.
tumblr user ipgd made them for Collide and posted them on their blog

Nope. He’s Jade’s Grandpa, and Joey’s Father
Nope, Joey is Jade’s Adoptive Aunt. Jade’s mother and father are Nanna and Grandpa
Yes! Genetically they’re half siblings, adoptedly they’re aunt/niece
B1 is was Skaianet, Grandpa Harley’s company
B2 it was Crockercorp, )(IC’S company
A2 is was Sollux that coded the game.
Base code for the game can be found in the Frog Temple.
Not counting outright telportation,
That’d probably have to be Jade. With her Witch of Space powers combined with her First Guardians abilities she can make things (and presumably herself) go close to lightspeed.
Not counting magic or science powers, probably Dirk or Gamzee, they both have shown decent flash-stepping abilities.
That’s where the Genetic Code to create Doc Scartch, but there’s not much else known about it
Nope! Not outside of him making the thing.
I like to think so, but sober Gamzee is really STRONG as well so it’d probably have been close.
It’s this webcomic where these kids play a game and their like “holy shit whats going on???” and then the world is destroyed and then some alien dudes that also played the game are like we have to work together to survive because you guys suck and made a really strong bad guy. So then they work together and like rewrite history and spend three years traveling to the new earth that they caused to exist by rewriting history. But then on that Earth there were more kids that then played the same game but the planet wasn’t destroy it was just taken over by two clowns, Guy Fieri and an alien empress and they ended up killing all the people but the planet was still okay except is was flooded. So then everyone meets up in outerspace and are like “we all got to fight these bad guys that are super strong”. Oh yeah, also there’s ghost of all the people that played the game and died and they find some bullshit thing that basically makes one of the kids a fucking consequence-free tardis. And the ghost are like gonna fight the big bad skeleton guy as like this huge army and stuff while the kids and aliens are gonna fight a bunch of other strong bad guys. And then they do! The kids win, but the ghost all die but they get the big bad anyway. After that everyone that still alive goes to the previously flooded Earth but in the future when it’s not flooded and lives happily ever after…
OR DO THEY?????
If Vriska didn’t feed her lusus then her lusus would eat her.
Terezi never really had a lusus, and Gamzee’s was never around so I don’t believe orphans are automatically on the cull list
That’s true, Dualscar did indeed break up with Mindfang, it was likely because Mindfang stole one of his slaves and then had the slave do some sexy stuff to her right in front of him
Grandpa Harley owned and Mom Lalonde worked at Skaianet which is the company that made the Sburb Beta so that probably accounts for them.
Dad Egbert didn’t really seem like he knew much and was just good at rolling with the punches.
Bro Strider is an enigma.
She could function relatively normally and that’s good enough
Well there was Tinkerbull, Punce de Leon, Aurthour, and Gl’bgolyb.
Not sure if you want to count Spidermom as a name or not
They can control any troll with a weak enough will. Gamzee was controlled by Aranea, but Vriska wasn’t able to manipulate pre-Hivebent Terezi.
