If someone dies on their slab and still has their dream self, do they still have the dream self and be godteir? And if they did keep the dream self and they died a heroic/just death, would they still be able to be revived

If someone dies on their dreamslab and they have other functioning bodies then that other body will die. For example, Aradia’s dream self died on her slab but her robot was still functioning so it exploded. 

wait, when did it say that grandpa harley adopted mom lalonde?

Answered here. 

how come there are two nannasprites?

One from the pre-retcon timeline and one from post-retcon. 

how many of the ancestors have a confirmed cause of death?

The Signless - killed via torture and arrow to the gut

The Handmaid - killed by Condesce

The Summoner - ??? (may have been killed during large scale rebellion war)

The Psiioniic - killed by Vast Glub

The Disciple - ???

The Dolorosa - killed by Dualscar

Neophyte Redglare - killed by Mindfang

Marquise Spinneret Mindfang - killed by the Summoner

Executioner Darkleer - ???

The Grand Highblood - ???

Orphaner Dualscar - killed by the Grand Highblood

Her Imperious Condescension - killed by Roxy

The Grand Highblood and Darkleer were very long lived so they may have lived up to the Vast Glub and were then killed by it.

did trolls have to give a bucket from BOTH a matesprit and kismesis in order to avoid being killed or just one? could they make two buckets from one quadrant and just lie to say it was from the other?

Both. As seen on this page the drone is carrying two Filial Pails, one for flushed and one for black. I’m not sure if the two buckets from one union would work since we don’t have a lot of detail on troll reproduction. 

So about davekat, many are still denying it but it appears to be canon as well as Andrew hussies numerous posts. Is it canon?

Yes, he confirmed it here. 

Does it ever actually state that dualscar is a pirate (like Mindfang, maybe?) or is that a fan canon?

Yes, he’s a pirate. Mindfang refers to him here as her “maritime overlord”.

when was bro first confirmed as abusive?? i think the first time hussie actually said it was in one of the books but i don't quite remember?

Transcript of the comment from Homestuck Book 3 is here. 

why do trolls get wings when they're god tier

Answered here. 

Is there confirmation that the Dolorosa was Mindfang's slave or is that just common speculation?

Answered here. 

What's a forgotten fact about kanaya/ or and Meenah?

Kanaya’s lusus was a moth and Kanaya had a crush on two Light players. 

Is it true that Nepeta was possibly black for Gamzee? And if it's true, when did it first shown?

No, Nepeta was never black for Gamzee. 

this is gonna sound dumb, but does pm stand for peregrine mendicant or parcel mistress or both?

Both. Different names for the same person. 

As long as we're talking about illegal stuff here, wanna discuss The Baby Is You?

Absolutely not. 

Sorry if this has been asked before, but at what age of the troll does the quadrant drone come to their hive looking for the pails?

Only adult trolls fill the pails. As for what number of sweeps is considered an adult, that we do not know. We might find out in Hiveswap though. 

Are gushers actually grubsauce or am I remembering something wrong

Yes they are. 

Was Redglare canonly a follower of the Signless?

Yes. 

What's up with Bec? Why does he have those powers in the first place??

Bec is a First Guardian and he has those powers because he was created with a special genetic code combined with the dog Halley. 

How was Redglare the only canon one if Dolorosa and Psiiconiic were punished after the Sufferers death, and Disciple was literally disciple

The anon didn’t ask if she was the only follower of the Sufferer, just if she was one in canon. 

how was John able to do the windy thing when he didn't reached godtier?

You can use godtier powers before you become godtier, like Terezi did with her Mind powers and John did with the Windy thing. Being godtier just gives you full mastery of those abilities. 

Why did the Summoner kill Mindfang? I thought THEY were on the same side

The details of Mindfang’s death were never revealed in-comic so all we know is that he killed her. In the fan animation After Us by toastyhat Mindfang controls the Summoner to kill her to put her out of her misery when she was injured and dying. That’s one way to explain her death. We just don’t have enough information in-canon. 

If the body calliope and caliborn shared was killed, what would happen?

If they’re dream selves were still alive then they most likely would retreat into those bodies. 

Why are some big unanswered questions from Homestuck?

Here are some unsolved plot strings. We also don’t know the full timeline of the Warhammer of Zillyhoo, who sendificated the last frog, or who put the weapons in the Lotus Flower Time Capsule. Those are just the ones off the top of my head. 

How come Jade didn't use her first guardian powers to warp the Prospitian Battleship and the Meteor into the Alpha Kid's session?

Jade explains here. 

About the plot holes Isn't Gamzee, the same Gamzee that was in the fridge, the same that lands with Caliborn then fuses with him (and many others) to make LE or Am I wrong?

Already answered.
