Is it possible to ever go grimdark at one point and then later trickster or can you only ever be one?
You can only be one at a time, and you probably couldn’t go from one to the other. They’re kinda parallels so maybe the cure to grimdarkness (aside from death) would be the lollipop juju
has the handmaid ever had anything to do with the other ancestors? or has her story always been "separated"?
She would timetravel to instigate events (just like her pre-scratch self) she never directly interacted with the other ancestors, except for Condy. But she probably meddled in their affairs
would any ring bring people back to life, or would it have to be specifically from a session with no prototyping. (or am I competent wrong on both assumptions lol)
Only the Ring of Life can bring people back to life and The Ring of Life isn’t from the Alpha kids’ session, it originated with Hussie.
i thought the first thing karkat said pre-hivebent was to jade: back in like act 3, the "HEY, IDIOT. SO TODAY IS THE DAY YOU FUCK EVERYTHING UP" thing?? idk i might be wrong
Oh wait, what I said was the frist thing he said to John. The real first words to come out of Karkat’s mouth are
CG: HI AGAIN, IDIOT.
this is like the third time ive asked this but i assume you just didnt see it. why aren't there lots of other people in the dream bubbles since there are lots of other sessions going on in the furthest ring?? theyre sburb players as well
The specific stable dreambubbles Fef had them make where only for trolls and friends
hello hey, you must be hella tired of these kind of questions and this is not a subject i like either, but, on somewhere around act 5, kanaya sees rose and says "skin as pale as ghost"? doesnt this mean she has a canon race then? sorry im confused D:
About the dreambubbley thingy, is this also the reason why there are no alpha kids in the bubbles? do they ever wake up there when they go to sleep also? i cant really remember
There are no Alpha kids there because they had no doomed timelines (except GO),but they do dream there. That’s where Jake first met Aranea and BG!Dirk gave him a boner, it was very embarrassing.
Do you need time travel/Time heroes to make a doomed timeline? I thought anyone could do it just by screwing up the "path" of action.
The time player needs to go back and stop them from doing that though. If no one goes back and changes it then it’s not a doomed timeline, it’s the alpha timeline where everyone just so happens to be doomed
wait but wouldn't it be possible to use the lotus pod to go back in time to earth via the reckoning before the session and create/fix a doomed timeline even without a time player? I think it would be.
Possibly, if you could get to the Frog Temple which would be floating out in the Veil
A time player isn't necessary for a doomed timeline to be created. There was a doomed timeline created where Terezi didn't kill Vriska, and Vriska went to confront Jack, with the alpha timeline still being the one where Terezi did kill Vriska, with no intervention from a time player.
That wasn’t a doomed timeline, that was a possible timeline that would have ended with everyone being doomed, completely different thing.
if a time player comes from a doomed timeline, are they automatically doomed? What happens if the version from the alpha timeline died, but a doomed version came in? Sorry if this doesn't make sense
Yes they’re still doomed even in the scenario you suggest
In your opinion, what are the best "scenes" (dialogue wise) in homestuck?
Anything involving Caliborn, Dave/Equius rap off, John/Tavros interactions, Davepeta, John/Terezi flirtations. Honestly I need to reread everything I’m sure there’s some gr8 ones out there I’m not remembering
Again, what evidence do you have that it never happened? Homestuck takes a lot of cues from many worlds theory, which states that when there is any probability of two outcomes happening, they both do, creating separate timelines. It's presented as a very real possibility that Terezi may not choose to stab Vriska, which would imply that there is a timeline in which that happens.
It’s presented as a timeline Terezi sees might occur, there’s no real evidence outside of that saying it didn’t truly happen but there also none supporting that it did.
What determines a troll and their ancestor? Like, how does a troll find out who their ancestor is? Are they related ectobiologically? Or by blood?
Most trolls never learn about their ancestor as they likely lived several hundred sweeps apart. Usually they’re related by blood but in our trolls’ case it’s ectoiology
If John can do the windy thing before he got God Tier that mean Caliborn can do the time thing and Calliope the spacy thing before they got God Tier or they can't because they are normal biology and not ectobiology?
It really depends on their classpect. Like Karkat shows traits of his title but you wouldn’t really classify it as a “bloody thing” because it doesn’t appear to be some sort of magic.
