When trolls are grubs they have 6 limbs. After they pupate they only have 4. Grub scars is the notion that trolls have scars on their torso where the middle set of limbs used to be.
What have to be your favorite random facts you know?
My favorite forgotten fact is back in 2013 when the homestuck fandom was still horrible and hated. Everyone thought homestuck was going to end soon so other fandoms started being nice to us and fandomstuck was born (one of my top favorite homestuck memes)
Thank you guys for keeping up this blog and helping us with things we might not know or understand. I have learned a lot of things and am glad to be a Homestuck fan
No prob bob. You guys want to know stuff about things I know and I feed off of attention so it’s mutually beneficial.
hello! im like, leafing through and all and i vaguely remember this one part where john and jade were on the BIG SHIP and decided to play an online game together but i forgot where and what that was all about. could you help me with that please?
I don't know if you've already answered this or not, but at which page does Karkat say fuckass? Like, if memory serves correct he says it once, but I can't remember where he says it.
Is it just me or does the art style make it read differently? Like I just can’t get the characters’ voices to sound normal, the art has altered them in my brain.
"I don’t remember everything, I just know the right places to look" that shit sounds like something the old master says to the student and it turns out to be the most important thing
Because it is. Here’s some examples from today:
Someone asked for the online game John and Jade played on the ship. I knew there was a pesterlog between the two and that it was in one of the earlier Act 6 intermission so I went to the wiki all up on John’s page and took a peak at his pesterlogs in Act 6 he’s had with Jade and boom, found it.
Or when someone asked when Karkat has said fuckass, I jump on over to MSPA’s search feature, click all up in Act 5, Ctrl+F fuckass until I find it.
What flash game did Meenah was LE was hot in? I clickity clack my way to the great resource of readmspa, go to their search feature of Act 6, Ctrl+F “hot” until I find the convo and get the link.
It’s all a matter of how you manage your resources and prior knowledge.
can condy use her mind powers to control trolls? because I'm drawing blanks and with the update having kanaya on derse with the rest of the team, i have a bad feeling about it
Yes, her mind powers control trolls and can put humans to sleep. But the mind powers only work on weak-willed trolls and Kanaya is anything but weak-willed.
Regarding the barcode on WV's wrist, is there any mention on how they were cloned? Also, what is that casino Robot SS was speaking of in the recent update?
Casino is mentioned here. The carapaces were cloned in labs on the meteors on this page.
In today's (3/29; spoilers) upd8, does Roxy's sword hold some extra-special significance beyond what Roxy says to John? I've totally forgotten where we've seen it before.
What IS the scratch technically? I know what it does but, what is it and how do you trigger it?
You trigger it when you scratch the surface of the construct on the Time player’s planet in a special way with quills from Echidna. It acts as a reset button and reboots the session.
do you know what happens if a character dies when dreaming? like not as their dream sprite/self whatever, but if theyre sleeping and in a dreambubble like karkat atm and they die/get killed in the dreambubble? thanks!
If they are killed as their dream phantom they just wake up. It’s happened to John a whole bunch of times.
29/03 upd8 question: How is Karkat in that desert place if his dreamself blew up back on Prospit during Sgrub? Is it some sort of dreambubble shenanigan? What happens if he dies in that dreamland?
Dream Phantom. If someone goes to sleep without a dream self they wake up as a dream phantom in the dream bubbles.
There was a couple who named their child after the shipping JohnKat. Did their parents ever regret their decisions and changed back the name or was JohnKat and their parents never heard of again?
Oh, you mean little John Karkat? Apparently that was fake.
So, dying on your quest bed turns your dream self into God-tier, and your regular self stays dead. If your dream self is dead, the only way to ascend is to do on your sacrificial slab. What if both your selves are alive, but then your dream self dies on their sacrificial slab. What happens to your regular self?
Sorry if this has been answered already, but can you explain how PM got to the trolls' session during the Scratch? I know Jack got there using the transporter thing he powered with the uranium from WV's stomach but I don't get how PM got there as well? P.S. I just read the FAQ and I am also a Slyph of Breath!
