Spades kissed snowman???

Yes.  Then Doc Scratch beat the shit out of him.

Do we know who made sburb? It's been around for some unknowable and paradoxical amount of time because its use creates universes but I was just wondering if there was a creation of it or anything

It was made by different people in each session but all of them are based on a technology found in the frog temple which is paradoxically created by the game and sent to the planet so that the game can be made.  So I guess technically the game makes itself?

Didn't the Jack Noir from Caliborn's session get turned into Jack English and sent outside the jnsiphisphere?

That was the Jack from the Alpha kid session.

What are the requirements for god tier and how does kissing play into death??

Requirements for god tier are to die on your quest bed if you have another life or on your sacrificial slab if you don’t. 

 Kissing a dead person wakes up their other life.

When did Roxy kiss Dirk?

Trickster time

Can you please clarify which set of trolls is Alpha and which ones are Beta? Like is Karkat, Gamzee, etc. Alphas or Betas?

Technically Karkat’s group is the Beta trolls.  But because everyone mixes up which group is which I just refer to them as pre-scratch or post-scratch.

hi, this is probably a dumb question but wasn't meenah's ghost 19 and vriska's ghost 13? the whole thing kind of creeped me out :-(

Vriska’s ghost had been in the dreambubbles for a long time so while her ghost may look 13 since that’s when she died she’s actually a lot older because time works differently in the dreambubbles.  Meenah’s ghost on the other hand only recently arrived in the dreambubbles so she’s still relatively the same age.

wouldn't karkat's group be the alpha trolls since alpha sessions are post-scratch and karkat's group was post-scratch?

It has been explained in canon that Meenah’s group was the Alpha and Karkat’s the Beta.  Whether or not that makes sense isn’t up to me.

Dirk mentioned something about the Condy's plan with the lussi and how she was hiding them somewhere on earth, and since we see them on Jake's island would that mean she hid them there thinking that it was unhabited ever since she killed Jade there?

Yes

Wasn't it stated that the Alternian sun is too hot for normal trolls to be in direct contact with? So the trolls are nocturnal except for Kanaya's caste?

Yes to both.

Wait why did karkat have to do ectobiology? I thought the whole point of the scratch was that the order of the meteors that were sent back in time with the babies were switched.

If the Pre-scratch trolls didn’t initiate the scratch the meteors wouldn’t have even been sent out at all and they wouldn’t exist.  So in order to close the paradox of their creation they had to scratch.

Would it be correct to say that successful sessions are Beta and unsuccessful sessions are Alpha? It seems the chronology of everything goes Alpha - Beta - Alpha - Beta, with the second beta creating the first Alpha in a loop.

How did Meenah ghost come just recently to the dream bubbles unlike the rest of her gang?

Time shenanigans.

here's a good one: Nepeta is autistic

I’ve had this one submitted a few times and I don’t want to take it as a fact.  If you headcannon it it’s fine, good for you.  But just because Karkat calls her that once it doesn’t mean it’s true. 

Not a HS fact, but I think it's worth noting that the 'injuries' of Harlequinsprite/Nanasprite mirror Vriska's, namely damage to the left eye & a fake left arm. Vriska is also the patron troll of John, the guy who 'injured' Harlequinsprite.

How did Glyobolb (no idea how to spell that) manage to release the Vast Glub if Feferi had prototyped her and entered LODAG?

Gl'bgolyb released the Vast Glub, then died and fell into Feferi’s kernelsprite right before she entered.

Has it ever been said or hinted at that the non-player scratch selves (Signless, Dave's Bro, Roxy's Mom, ect) are in the dream bubbles or have different bubbles, especially since some like the Condesce and Nanna have extremely important roles in the alternate sessions anyway?

It hasn’t been seen or mentioned at all in canon so a guardianbubble probably doesn’t exist.

Dunno if this one has been answered, but did we ever find out what Aranea was doing with all those mind-controlled Damaras?

She used them to move the ship to Derse and to move the planets in [S] Gameover.

What were the totems used in the alpha kids sessions to bring them into the medium? I was talking about it with my friend and we know the ones for the beta session (John is apple, Rose is bottle, Dave is egg, and Jade is tree) but we can't remember any of them for the alpha kids. I also think that there's some sort of meaning in them (like why each person got that specific thing as their totem) but I'm not sure what.

Roxy and Dirk’s weren’t shown but

Jake’s was a little Cherub guy

Jane’s was a tree

Is Vriska X Meenah likely to come back, meeting through sleeping and appearing in the bubbles still, or has my ship eternally sunk?

The way I see it it still exists.  Because if John changing Vriska’s death meant that Vriska never was a ghost she never would have formed her pirate crew and John never would have got his powers.  So GhostVriska has to exist because if she doesn’t John wouldn’t have gotten the ability to change the past.  Plus GhostVriska recently underwent a huge design change, most likely so that we could distinguish GhostVriska from Vriska (Vriska). 

if gamzee is immortal because clowns can't die then why did kurloz die?

Kurloz’s a mime not a clown

why did hussie spend the time drawing two fantrolls in his style yo just kill them afterwords? why anything? hussie. that's why

He was paid $20,000 to do that though…

Where did the fantrolls show up? I missed them on my readthrough.

During Aranea’s exposition on cherubs

What was the entire cannon story of the beta trolls ancestors?

Here’s the short version

didnt davesprite like die

Yes I know, the “What happened to Davesprite” was referencing to whether he snuck onto Lowas like Jaspersprite and is hitching a ride to the new timeline or not.

What are all the trolls godtier titels, and where are they stated? Like I know Terezi is the seer of mind and Eridan the Prince of hope, but was Equius, Nepeta, Karkat and the rests godtiers ever stated in canon? Mainly asking for Beta trolls, but if you feel like doing the alpha trolls too I'd be grateful. Thank you!

Aradia- Maid of Time
Tavros- Page of Breath
Sollux- Mage of Doom
Karkat- Knight of Blood
Nepeta- Rogue of Heart
Kanaya- Sylph of Space
Terezi- Seer of Mind
Vriska- Theif of Light
Equius- Heir of Void
Gamzee- Bard of Rage
Eridan- Prince of Hope
Feferi- Witch of Life.

hussie wasn't paid 20k to draw the two trolls getting killed. two people pledged 10k each, the reward for which was your character becoming a canon character in homestuck; however, they failed to fulfill their pledge, so they were drawn... and killed right after, iirc

10,000 guaranteed the characters survived one panel

A 100,000 pledge guaranteed more than one.

So yes, he was paid.  I know the wording on the wiki is confusing.

I sent in a forgotten fact with proof/scource but it was never posted? I sent it in over a month ago.

I’m sorry.  Either it was one we already had, something I didn’t think qualified as forgotten or it just got buried. I have nearly seven hundred messages in my inbox right now so if it’s buried I’ll find it eventually.

I think I remember reading the pre-scratch trolls mentioning being stuck in their session for three sweeps. So, a little over 6-ish years, right?

That would be exactly six and a half years.

Where in the story was the Lime-blood purge mentioned? Link?

Calliope mentions it when talking to Jane

So then Dave is 3 days older than he should be in that timeline??

Kinda, yeah.

Because of time shenanigans, did Davesprite actually date Jade in the other timlines?

You mean in the retconned timeline where he got exploded?  Maybe, I’m not sure at what point in time that started dating.  John and Davesprite died pretty early on in the trip since Jade said she’d spent three years alone.  So, maybe.

Not a fact but can you tell me How Jane got on prospit?

She’s a Prospit dreamer.

is it just Kurloz with the chucklevoodoo or does Gamzee and GHB have it too?

All the Makara’s have it.

Minor correction, Dave'd be two days older. Because I believe he spent 3 days in total, not on top of the one day in real time?

Right, math

So, did Gamzee make Lil' Cal? Or was that Lord English?

Gamzee made Cal, yes.

Since the wearer of the queens ring assumes attributes from the things first prototyped into the players kernelsprites in the session, shouldn't Jack/Bec Noir gained cat-like features instead of tentacle abilities from roses prototyping?

Rose prototyped her sprite twice before entry so the kernel had aspects of both.  So the ring bearer would have aspects of both, but the cat attributes where probably left out of Jack’s Pre-Bec design by Hussie as not to conflict with Bec’s soon to be added dog attributes.

Since the new timelines Jane killed Roxy will the Alpha timeline(or our Roxy whatever we call her) take her place?

Yes.

Wait how did the Beta kid session only last a day if they haven't won it and gone through the door yet? Same for Karkat's session? And I would imagine that the reason Meenah's ended was because she killed them all...

The Beta kid’s scratched their session, effectively ending it.

Karkat’s universe was destroyed effectively ending his session.

Meenah’s ended cause they scratched as well.

Why did the beta kids have to scratch, was it because of jack?

Their Reckoning started too early, they didn’t have enough time to finish.

How did Snowman gain the "ability" to destroy the beta troll universe upon death? I can only assume it has something to do with being a Felt member, but was it ever explicitly stated at any point?

Doc Scratch gave it to her.  Darn that omnipotent puppet man, darn him to heck.

How many acts in total are there (including all the sub ones and intermissions)? I cant find your answer

35

Is Davesprite dead-dead? Like he exploded so did John save him or is he in a bubble or what

Well find out at some point, probably.

Wait how did Gamzee make Lil Cal?? I think I lost some very important information here...

Chuckle Voodoo, spooky stuff.

i which panel do we get to know lil cal holds a piece of caliborn's soul then?

Here 

so are all of the kids 16 now?

Yes.

To clarify, Sn0wman's heart is the entirety of the beta troll universe.

Yes

How does the Condesce have psionics?

She’s really old and had a lot of time to experiment

the only cat attributes he had were small Jaspers-like protrusions off the side of his face

did you just call m-E old

Considering how many centuries you’ve lived your Imperious Condescension, compared to the lifespan of an average troll or human, yes, you’re old,
