How did Aranea acquire the ring of life

She mind controlled Gamzee and made him steal it

what is the origin of the The nepeta in both davepetasprite and fefetasprite

That’d be the one that Gamzee killed post-retcon and pre-retcon respectively. 

what even is homestuck anymore

Homestuck is an interactive webcomic hosted on mspaintadventures.com written by Andrew Hussie and featuring several guest artists throughout the series.

What's Lord English's ultimate goal?

how does the Condy have the Summoners, Psiioniic's and Mindfangs powers?

This is explained in the faq

how did Jake's dream self die? (the bed of roses thing?)

He was poisoned by an archagent of Derse

Will the alpha trolls be relevant again?

Outside of Meenah, probably not. The were really only thrown in the comic as fanservice

does the comic explain why homestuck is dogshit

After the trickster thing how the heck did the alpha kids get to/end up on their sacrificial slabs?

They probably flew there, peeps do weird shit when they’re high

WHY DOES EVERYONE THINK FEF IS FAT? WAS THIS STATED IN THE COMIC?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

It’s a popular headcanon dude, no need to get angry. Peeps like a lil’ plus-sized representation. The reasoning comes from her being a seadweller and how a lot of seadwelling Earth creatures have that extra weigh for warmth and shit. Eridan doesn’t actually live in the sea so the same logic can’t be applied to him. But at the end of the day, peeps can believe whatever they like and it doesn’t hurt anyone so there’s nothing wrong with it. If you disagree, you disagree, that’s your opinion. It’s when you start telling others their opinions are wrong with no basis in fact or canon that things start to be not okay.

You have to tell me how are you such a fantastic person? :3c

I just try to be a little bit more like Dave Strider everyday.

Didn't the Signless's and Disciple's love transcend all quadrants? If so didn't that mean he broke his vow to celibacy just for the Disciple?

We don’t know if the Signless had a celibacy vow.  We know Kankri does, and while they are technically the same person, they are not actually the same person.

I thought that somewhere when Dave and Dirk are talking to each other, Dave mentioned that Bro filmed him for porn, was this true or do I have my facts wrong? And if it is true, would you mind terribly citing where it was? Thank you in advance!!!

Bro didn’t exactly film Dave for porn. Bro has cameras set up all over the place and Dave may or may not have shown up as an accessory in some of his puppet stuff. Which is super weird fetish stuff so not necessarily explicate such as the time Dave shredded a puppet in the blender: 

 It seems you may have just been an unwitting accessory to some sort of grisly puppet snuff film.

So there are all these theories about what actually happened with Mituna's accident. I've heard them, and read them, but has Andrew confirmed anything true? Or is he just doing it so we can come up with our own theories about what happened and remain curious?

Hussie has confirmed nothing. He probably never actually came up with the incident himself and probably never intends to show it. But it’s better that way. Some of the fan theories go super in detail and it’s pretty great.

Is Gamzee dead? I can't find any good answers.

No, you can’t keep down the clown

How was davesprite created?

When a mommy sprite and a daddy doomed timeline self want to stay alive they come together and form a sprite of said doomed timeline self or in this case Davesprite

So this is a little related to that "Is it possible to win the game with them?" post, which I thought was a bit of a fun question, so I wanted to ask the same thing as that person. If that's okay. Would it be possible to win the game with a Bard of Rage, Maid of Breath, Mage of Breath, Rogue of Blood, Sylph of Space, Thief of Time, and Heir of Space? (Sorry for the bother.)

Yes. Literally all you need playerwise to for the game to be win-worthy is a time and space player

this isn't really a question about the story, but anyways: Why did the homestuck fandom die out so much? As a person who entered late (this summer) I don't understand.

2012 was the start of the hiatuses which nudged fans into other fandoms. During the hiatuses of 2013 people became more invested in other fandoms and lost interest in homestuck. 2012 and early 2013 was also the time of the Trickster Arc which pushed people away because it was too weird.  It was also around this time that everyone was sure Homestuck would soon be ending so the fandom that was hated by all became loved by all. Other fandoms were nice to us and out of this Fandomstuck was born. Personally one of my favorite homestuck memes of all time it only assisted in the seeping and breaking away of homestuck fans into other fandoms. And then of course came the Gigapause of late 2013. Only die-hard fans survived this year long break without going into Homestuck hibernation. This was a good thing for the fandom however as the piece of shit bucket phase kids either left or learned. No more were the con horror stories of grey smudges or bucket throwing. No more were the meet ups and photoshoots where the attendees numbered in the hundreds. The fandom was at peace, left only with those who knew of how awful it’d been and wished never to return. And then the final straw, the retcon. Making a confusing tale even more confusing some couldn’t take it and cursed the story. Others left due to the fact the their precious children, the ones they had spent years watching grow were no more. They’re experiences changed, the challenges they faced abandoned. No more was Rose’s alcoholism, no more was Dave’s emotional issues, Terezi’s abusive tale, Jade’s failed romance with Davesprite. All of it replaced with support, love, friendship and sadness. The characters were different now, not by much, but their stories had changed. Some left over that. Some left purely because all this was done to bring back Vriska, a character no one wanted to return. And to bring us to present, the most recent incident that cause some to leave was the creation of Sprites^2.  

You are young in an old fandom. There have been many things, many memes, many problems, many arguments, many laughs that you have missed. You never knew the fandom at it’s most active, most exciting, most embarrassing, most cringe worthy, consider this a blessing. The fandom wasn’t always as cozy as it is today.

What if there was One Space player in a different universe of the Time Player?

If the sessions were destined to converge like that of our humans then yes it would be winnable.

wouldn't a session with a space player but no time player still be winnable, assuming a scratch wasn't necessary/it was already a post scratch session?

No. A time player isn’t only around for the scratch. In any successful session there will be doomed timelines. The time player is responsible for coming back and stopping them from happening so that the Alpha timeline can continue. 

So what's going on with the homestuck game exactly? Is it still on?

Yeah, There have been some set backs along the way but it’s still coming. I believe the current eta is early next year.  You can check it out on your own if you like.

Did Bec Noir kill Eridians dreamself?

Yes

Would it be possible for a group of players to just. leave their session taking their planets and battlefield and go to another one. and that session just stays as is without them? Like if the first group (the one that leaves their session) has a time player but not a space player and they join a group that has a space player but not a time player?

I don’t see why not. As long as they have someone that can navigate the endless abyss that is the Furthest Ring.

Isn't it suppose to be Knight and Space?

No.  It’s unknown whether the knight assisting in breeding frogs is a prerequisite for a successful session or if it’s just a coincidence between the two that we’ve seen.

When was the last time Gamzee was seen/mentioned?

He was last mentioned here, the day before the omegapause started

Wait, I don't understand how this works: When you prototype a dead version of yourself, you merge with your Sprite and show some it is traits, like if it was part animal. Why didn't Dave merge with Davesprite?

Because Davesprite was made with a Doomed Dave and not his dreamself.

Is there a page in homestuck where we see Gamzee eating a salad or something like that??

We see him eat Sopor Slime and Sopor Slime is kinda like salad. They are both green.

Riddle me this-why are fans always fighting over characters? Like yeah some people butcher canon facts just because they dont like a character but mostly ppl see them differently bc diff people see diff sides of characters yall please

Well, it’s simple really. Some people have a set way they see a character and refuse to take any other interpretations of said character because

has john cena ever appeared in homestuck ?

Isn’t he the main character?

Did Roxy ever wear a pink skirt in canon or is it just a very popular headcanon?

Headcanon.

What is the chance of Aradia and Sollux coming back?

Likely since we just saw them meeting up with Meenah’s army.

I appreciate the time you take to answer all these questions :)
