I'm on mobile so i cant get to faqs. Could u put a link please?

1. There’s a link in the description

2. If that doesn’t work you could open a browser and go to forgttenhsfacts.tumblr.com/faq.

3. I don’t really see why this is so difficult for everyone but since I’m nice here you go

some people are using the mobile app which doesn't let you open any pages, like - for example - /faq.

Well I assume you have access to a browser such as Safari or Chrome where you can open it.

how many troll

so many. so many troll.

Idk how you deal with so many frustrating asks with such grace but I see you being completely tolerant and I appreciate you putting up with so much ignorance

Thank you anon. I don’t really have the luxury of being able to be mean. Given the large number of followers this blog has if I’m anything but polite I run the risk of getting a ton of shit for it and I’d very much like to avoid that.

Who's your favourite troll?

i'm not sure if this would be considered a forgotten fact, but i cant seem to find the panel when john resurrected after being killed by jack when he was with rose and they found the corpses of their parents. i found an image of it on the internet, but i cant get a panel number from it. it wont let me give you a link but if you search "john resurrect homestuck" on google its the first image with a bunch of flashing colors. do you think you could help me find it?

Here.

has dave ever stated in cannon that he doesnt like his shades to be removed and prefers to keep them on or is that just a widely used headcannon?

Show us your trollsona?

Just made her in like thirty seconds in this creator.

how did dad egbert and mom lalonde appear in the battlefield? (dont remember which act;-;)

They got a ride on Grandpa Harley’s ship

What is with the horse calendar. I'm new to the fandom and my friends won't tell me about it. They just kind of laugh. So could you please tell me what the horse calendar is. And like why it's so important. Please. Thanks

Horse calendar signified when the comic would upd8

I know it doesn't show anything other than this in the comic, but is it possible for a lower blood to be a sea dweller? Also, only fuchsia bloods can be royalty, right?

Seadwellers are exclusive to the highest blood castes

Wait, is it canon or un-canon for a rouge to have a heir like hood? Cuz I've seen Roxy with an heir-length-thingy hood

No, Rogue hoods are a normal hood size

Did Caliborn and Calliope share a body? (Currently on act 6 act 3)

Yes

Didnt faq stand for facts and questions?

I’ve always known it as Frequently Asked Questions but both work

Was there ever a cannon cross over?

Define crossover

According to homestuckcanonconfirmer, on a post about canon relationships says that it was implied Porrim and Latula had something going on quadrant-wise. Where is this mentioned?

This flash game. It was actually Porrim and Aranea who had a red thing together.

Did Gamzee ever made fun of Terezi for being blind?

I get roses, daves, and jades cruxite thingy (bottle, egg, and bec) but why did john have the apple?

did damara *ever* talk to the humans? if so, which openbound was it (meaning do you have the link to which openbound part it was)

This Flash game.

i just wanted to say thank you guys so much for doing this, it's really cool of you to help out people with something as complicated as the plot to all this!

Doesn't davepetasprite's colour scheme remind you of a...pumpkin? #illuminaticonfirmed

*dusts off the old ship name for DirkJake* Ah yes, Pumpkin Patch is gonna be canon again.

holy shit yall are rude to people who voice a fucking opinion. someone asks a stupid question and you just direct them to the faq like its no problem but someone voices distaste about something? how fucking dare they have an opinion lets insult for it

what happened to davesprite's sword?

It’s probably around. Davepeta has claws though so we probably won’t be seeing it again.

Do you think this update will be important at all?? So much random shit has already happened and I'm sure something fantastic is going to happen at the end but the lord is testing me

Everything is important in Homestuck, especially the stuff you don’t think is important

Do you think I can add DaveKat to my list of canon ships under the "red" column yet? Also sorry about that anon who was rude to you

Based on facts in canon, yes I think you can. There are those that would argue though.

Wait, so if its still speculation how can you count it as canon? Also, why wouldn't Jasprose be referring to Terezi? From what we've seen Karkat hasn't been obsessive and controlling over Dave, so how can that be referring to him?

“Desired” is not filled. Jasprose was talking about two separate people. Referring to Terezi when speaking of Karkat’s old desired matespriteship and to someone else when discussing this fulfillment of the quadrant.

why did caliborns sprite become a black hole?

1 player session

Is there any explanation as to why jasprosesprite^2 and Davepetasprite^2 have dreamer outfits worked into their design

That just seems to be how sprite^2s work

So, jasprosesprite^2 called Davesprite their bird brother... and now davesprite and nepetasprite are prototyped together... Can jasprose still date them?????

I don’t see why not. There’s no longer a human society to consider incest a taboo so there wouldn’t be anything inherently wrong with a potential relationship between the squared siblings unless they considered it to be wrong.

Plus trolls don’t have a concept of incest and Davepeta is part troll. Although knowing Hussie, and Homestuck’s audience I’m pretty sure nothing will happen between the two characters romantically speaking in canon

do you still like homestuck, even after the months of stupid updates?

Excuse me, I braved through the 2012 Micropauses, the Megapause and the fucking Gigapause, my enjoyment of Homestuck unscathed, never did it falter. There ain’t nothing on this Earth or beyond that’s going to stop me from liking Homestuck

Is there a way to read Homestuck without the flashy-ness? The flashing images give me serious headaches, and I'm curious if there's an epileptic-friendly version. I'm probably gonna be severely disappointed if there isn't tbh... I tried to read Homestuck before, but after a while, the incessant use of flashing has made it impossible for me to read it.

I’m pretty sure there is, that definitely sounds like a thing I’ve heard about, but I don’t know. I’m just gonna post this and peeps can reblog or reply with something it they know.

Lol, do you expect the next 7 pre pause updates do be as *ahem* 'interesting?' I feel like the Hussmaster is going to enjoy leaving us with some *sneeze* thoughts before the pause

The upd8s are probably just gonna be everyone finishing up their individual conversations and regrouping for the big fight. 

if you don't ship davekat, then what do you ship?

I have a page for that in the faq actually. Towards the bottom.

What's the difference between Retconning (windypowaz) and Timeline shenanigans?

Retconning doesn’t create doomed timelines and you don’t have to worry about creating stable timeloops like you do with normal timetravel

Do you answer all your asks? (Wow you have a lot today)

Oh honey, we have very different definitions of a lot

hi! sorry if this is a bit unrelated in spite of current events but, im making a fancomic and i dont have a rage or blood player. would the game still be able to work without them? thanks

Yes, only TIme and Space are necessary for a functional session

Do you think Hussie did what he did as a lazy way to appease 2 different shipper groups (Davekat and Katnep)

No, that’s not even the Dave that he is dating, it ain’t gonna make a difference to him

Gotta say, I love the new, sassier brand of question answering that mod T brings to the party.

I can’t really say this is new. Once every few month or so there’s just one day where I go all out. Usually it ends in everyone having a fun time, this one got a little more sour than usual though.

Hi, I'm new to the whole homestuck thing. Should I start reading homestuck, all my friends say no but it looks interesting.

Do your friends read homestuck? If yes, I can assure you they are saying no in a joking fashion and you should read homestuck. If no, don’t listen to them, they haven’t read homestuck, they don’t know what the jazz is all about, you should read homestuck.   

I thought davesprite was dead???

Post-retcon Davesprite died but his pre-retcon self survived.

what happened after fefetasprite exploded? were they alive?

Their ghosts appeared in the Furthest Ring.

is Kankri being Flushed for Latula canon or

Canon.

Didn't Karkat <3 Jade? What happened with that?

He had a crush on her but I don’t think he does anymore.

What is the symbolism of the beta kids' entry items? The bottle, egg, and Bec piñata?

this might seem like a dumb question, but sometimes people photoshop/edit panels and they look real. before i read hs i saw the panel of dave in the pot of soup and it said he was sitting in it because "ive lost control of my life" but when i actually read the comic i found out it was fake. so now my question. is the panel of baby dave and bro playing some turntables real or not? he was also wearing a shirt with a heart on it and shades like his bros. is that panel read or fake?

The panel with Dave and Bro is canon. Dave sitting in a cauldron is also canon

Where does it say that the sprites inherit all the memories of the doomed and alpha timeline versions of themselves memories, which allows Jasperose to know about davekat?

Why did Damara initiate the scratch?

Because her session was busted and there was no way they could win.

who is Neophyte Redglare?

How did Dualscar and The GHB die?

The Grand Highblood killed Dualscar. The GHB is of a very long lived blood caste so he may have lived up until the Vast Glub and then died but his death isn’t mentioned in canon.

is it legitimately mentioned that trolls have gray skin? or like no...
