DaveKat is not canon, said by Karkat himself I quote: " NO NO NO NO NO NO NO" - Karkat Vantas
A. Karkat could be embarrassed to tell John about his relationship with Dave, it’s not outside his character to do something like that.
B. Davekat could be pale, they obviously are very close and Dave was able to calm Karkat down pretty well.
C. Or they could just be buds, whatever
Either way yesterday’s upd8 didn’t disprove anything.
whatever happened to Dirk during the aftermath of [s] Game Over, when he and John were floating around in the debris? and does that have anything to do with why he hasn't been in any of the updates since Caliborn's claymation clips?
After Game Over Dirk was overcome by a mass of stardust.
But that doesn’t have anything to do with why he isn’t in the upd8s. He isn’t around because Jade teleported him outside the incipisphere and he’s currently flying back.
Is the vriska in this current timeline god tier? I'm very confused about how she was/became god tier on the meteor with all the trolls and I don't remember how it all happened... It wouldn't make sense for her to be God tier right now though because she's just wearing her normal outfit I'm v confused pls help owo
She ascended in [S] Make her Pay. And they don’t have to stay in their god tier outfits, this isn’t the first time she put her normal clothes back on.
wasnt there a scene where rose rode on an ogre down a river or whatever, and then roxy's mom (also rose) rode on guy fieri down a river too?
Yes
for devices like the skulltop and whatever jane was using on page ?s=6&p=007423 do they use their minds to control the device and type on pesterchum or is it like phone calls because jake was able to cut jane off in the middle of the word "tomorrow" (GG: Actually, why don't we just talk about it tomor- GT: Okay we can talk about that if you insist.) but then later jake said she was going heavy on the caps and it made it seem like shouting. very confused o_O
My guess in that situation is that with Jane’s headset probably worked by her speaking into it and it converts that into text and it reads the replies to her. And Jake’s skulltop might convert speech into text but not text into speak so he still reads the messages. This way they’re conversing in real time giving Jake the ability to cut Jane off and to not know that she is shouting at him.
I didn't think the beta kids handles were based on DNA...I think it's just the alpha kids and the post-scratch trolls
The Alpha kids and Beta kids’ chumhandles are literally the same letters.
Jane and Jade are both GG
Dirk and Rose are both TT
Dave and Roxy are both TG
Jake and John’s old one are GT
I started rereading Homestuck and I'm at the first Intermission. And there is this scene where Die pushes Spade Slick's pin into his doll. This allows Die to jump to the moment when Spades died. But instead, he jumps to Alternia(?) and it says "How many times does he have to tell you. He made this town." I'm confused. How does Die appearing in Alternia(?) prove that Spades made the town?
Spade Slick founded Midnight City on post-Sgrub Alternia. When Die teleported to a timeline where Slick died and the city wasn’t there it proved that Slick did in fact “make the town”. Slick is alive, the town exists. Slick is dead, the town doesn’t exist. Therefore for the city to exist, Spades Slick had to be alive to make it.
John actually has a fourth strife specibus in umbrellakind.
He found the umbrellakind but he never picked it up. At least that we’ve seen. When he made am umbrella weapon he said:
It suddenly seems worthwhile to you to go nab that UMBRELLAKIND STRIFE SPECIBUS that’s been lying in the study for a while.
But we never saw him go back for it.
if the alpha kids are clones of their guardian selves then why does jade call herself jake's grandma?
Because Jade’s post-scratch self raised Jake and she was old so Jake called her grandma.
Actually I seem to remember Dirk and Roxy being introduced as a year older than Jane and Jake. Could you check for me please?
They were born in the future so their birth year isn’t the same as Jane and Jake’s but they are the same age.
where are the act titles found aside from the wiki
You go to the website and click Map up at the top and then go to Homestuck and the Act titles can be seen there. Or you can just click on this.
Why was Jaspersprite in LOWAS, and was he zapped with the planet?
I have a feeling he was there just to have that moment with Roxy. But because of that there may be two jaspersprites running around.
In the initial explanation of troll romance they provided an example that works completely contradictory with what you just said though.
In reference to Kismesitude
There is no particularly good human translation for this concept. The closest would be an especially potent arch-rivalry.
Aren’t Sasuke and Naruto potent arch-rivals? I think my example fits okayly.
what happened to the adult trolls that condesce banished from alternia? did they all just die? and is it possible ancestors' souls to be in the dream bubbles?
They were on other planets expanding the Alternian empire but died after the Vast Glub. And no the ancestors can’t be in the dreambubbles.
do you think dirk will arrive at the meteor (or whatever is this place theyre sitting rn)?
Right now they’re on a platform underneath Skaia and yes, Dirk will arrive soon as mentioned by Rose here.
If you die and your in a dream bubble do you age? And do sprites age?
Ghosts in dream bubbles do not age as evidenced by the Alpha trolls who have been there for billions of years and still look like they did when they died, about 9 sweeps. Sprites probably do not age but there has been no confirmation in-comic.
which god tier classes have been specifically stated to be specific to one gender or the another such as the case with lords and muses rather than assumed to be specific to a particular gender due those classes only being assigned to 2 or 3 canon characters that share the same gender?
The Prince and Bard classes are stated to be male-exclusive here.
When did Dave get shot by jade on accident? I don't remember that part
It happened during their fight with Bec Noir on this page in the skinny panel at the top.
How old are the Alpha trolls?
They’re 9 sweeps old.
how did rose turn grimdark?
After finding out about her mother’s death Doc Scratch and Jade urged her to look into her Magic Cue Ball and ask if the Horrorterrors were benevolent. This caused her to turn Grimdark.
didn't jade mention being pen pals with jake at some point?
Yes she mentions this in her letter to John on this page.
What is the prize for beating sburb?
The prize is that the players get to rule over the universe they create as gods.
Is it true that Caliborn actually called Calliope attractive?? Like indirectly I mean
Yes he does on this page.
so wait what is the Handmaid's curse?
The Handmaid’s curse is that of conditional mortality, meaning she could only die on certain conditions. It extended her life span so that Lord English could enslave for however long he wanted.
brief summary of the ancestors life stories, far as we know? what do we know about the psiioniic, specifically?
You can find a summary of the Ancestor’s lives here. The Psiioniic was a gifted psionic who was a slave before he became a follower of the Signless. After the death of the Signless, the Psiioniic was grafted to the flagship of the Condesce. She extended his life span with her touch and eventually died as a result of the Vast Glub.
How did Latula lose her sense?
The incident has never been revealed in-comic.
I'm curious about Psionics. Are they strictly unique for the captors or are there other trolls with them? If so, do they come in different colors?
The psionic abilities are common in yellow-blooded castes as mentioned on this page. The Condese has developed these psionic abilities over time. Considering she also shoots out blue and red beams there probably aren’t any color variation.
so i was going back and re reading homestuck and i thought i saw horrus say that he couldn't understand darma's lowblood accent. do lowbloods have a different accent then highbloods?
Yes Damara has an East Beforan accent (which is really just very poor Japanese). Eridan is also mentioned having an accent on his introduction page here.
Was it ever mentioned that female trolls have boobs?
Yes it’s mentioned here by Arquiusprite
Which powers did Jade get from her godtier, and the powers she got from becoming/merging with Bec/Jadesprite?
Her Space abilities include being able to change the size of an object and teleport things and also accelerate their velocities. Her Bec powers include generating a green fire barrier here. Although Jade herself has mentioned that she doesn’t know which of her powers came from Bec.
vriskas keep saying shes going to go soon and wont be with the others when the big battle stuff happens. wheres she going?
She hasn’t said, but many think she’s going to the Green Sun. There’s a popular theory explaining why.
What page does it say that sollux has a lisp? My friend doesn't believe me
His introduction page, last line
What's that popular theory about Vriska and Greem Sun?
Basically, Vriska’s gonna try to steal the Green Sun’s energy but ends up destroying it and creating a hole in paradox space that LE can use to get into this universe.
In the 6&p=008178 flash, what happened in the remainder of it?
You mean during the glitching parts? We see Jane with Gcat at an ectobiology station hinting that she creates Gcat. Every other part is seen later on in the story.
If the troll session was one session all along, why was it still implied in early Act 5 that the teams were working against each other?
They thought that they were going to be playing separate sessions and competing with one another. But surprise, they had to work together.
What's gog and jegus?
Jegus was a typo made by Dave here, fans in their bucket phase use it all the time and have the characters say it frequently in comics even though Jegus has only been used 18 times in canon, 4 times by Vriska and Karkat, 3 times by John, Dave and Terezi and once by Feferi.
Gog has a similar story only drawn even more out of proportion as it’s only used 3 times in the story, twice by Terezi and once by Dave
Are bulges canon?
What exactly are you asking? If you’re asking if trolls have bone bulges then yes, it’s been referenced many times. But if you’re asking if troll bulges are the little tentacle doodad seen so often in fanart, then no, that’s not canon.
Apologies if this has been asked a 100 times already, but has the four letter first name thing for the humans ever been explained, or is it just apart of the 413 thing?
Yes. The kids’ first names are 4 letters long and their last names are either 6 or 7 letters. 6+7=13 The human naming scheme is a reference to the arch-number of homestuck 413. Similar to how at the beginning of the story it was about 4 13-year old kids.
Question... What is currently happening in homestuck? I'm confused about the updates.
The meteor crew rescued Jake, Jade and Jane from the Condesce. And now they’re waiting for Arquiusprite to free Jane from her tieratop before they go over battle plans so they’re taking this brief moment of down time to just talk with each other.
hey so i was wondering, with vriska keeping gamzee at bay now and doing all of the time traveling, does that mean that nobody was around to raise caliborn and calliope? or is this something that is unanswered and needs explaining now
Gamzee will still get it done. Caliborn only exists post-retcon so everything that’s happened to him wasn’t effected by the retcon.
In the Descend Flash, during the part where Jack and Bro are fighting, why does Bro stab his sword into the Beat Mesa?
Bro is trying to initiate the Scratch which is caused by physically scratching the Beat Mesa.
How do you remember the page links for the different questions people ask you?
Most of the time I remember key phrases used in those conversations pertaining to the ask and search mspaintadventures for those phrases. Or I check the wiki to make sure.
What would have happened if the trolls had gone through the door?
They would’ve found themselves in the kid’s universe.
If jades grandpa was dead while she was still a baby how did he find her dead dream self and have it stuffed while riding a big ship in prospit? This question has been eating me alive.
Grandpa used the portals found in the Frog temple on his island to enter the Medium sometime before he died and before the session started. Because the Medium’s timeline started when John entered, Grandpa was sort of traveling in the future. He took Jade’s dream body back through the portals to Earth and stuffed it.
How does one get sent to a dream bubble after death? Like do you have to be a player of sburb/sgrub to go to a dream bubble after death since the ancestors weren't
Yes the dream bubbles are only for the ghosts of dead sburb/sgrub players. Meenah just sort of appeared in a bubble after she died.
Was Latula blind before she died?
No Latula was never blind.
hey what about a maid of blood? or hope? breath? which one is the best?
Each godtier title can be powerful if you fulfill your role correctly. In terms of raw power I’d say Hope is your best bet.
What happened to the doomed!timeline davesprite?
His fate is unknown.
Something's that's always baffled me... if Jade's grandpa was shot while she was young, who stuffed and mounted him?
Either Jade or Bec but it was most likely Bec since a young Jade probably couldn’t have brought herself to stuff her own grandfather.
How did Glubglub (Fef's Lusus) die?
Feferi’s lusus was implied to have been killed by a meteor after she released the Vast Glub. She then fell into Feferi’s kernel sprite and was prototyped.
