Where did the Beta kids who were sucked into the Juju kids come from? As far as I know, there were only the one's from John's pre-retcon past (who all died in the battle) and the one's he met in the lilly pad? Are they from the future?
The Beta kids haven’t been sucked into the juju yet. The juju trapping is in the future of their timeline.
Why can't Arquiusprite swear?
Equius is STRONGLY against 100d language and will not allow the sprite combo to use it
How come Vriska seemingly knows everything that is about to happen in the comic? Examples like Dirk's arrival matching with the bad guys, that Gamzee still has plot to do and that John was about to arrive with Roxy. Who gave her this knowledge (since as far as I can tell she's just been on the meteor in the retcon timeline)?
She’s got time travelling capabilities, she’s probably been in the future.
I see Davesprite shown with a spirograph necklace in a lot of fan art. Has this been seen in canon, or is it just a popular fanon thing?
It’s canon. Every player gets one when they get high enough on their echeladder. The necklace allows them to summon their sprite anywhere. It’s customary to give the pendant back to the sprite when the player doesn’t need them anymore which is why Davesprite has his.
?s=6&p=009411 could that weird scribble between Vriska's eyes be something? Or am I grasping at straws?
You are grasping at straws. It’s just skin because she’s scrunching her face up.
How long is homosuck?
Are you asking about Homestuck or actual Homosuck?
Is Eridan's "march drag" conon?
Not in story (not counting Mini-strife) but in official Homestuck merch, yes.
What if the Time player dies and they need to scratch?
The time player doesn’t need to perform the scratch they just need to enter so the scratch construct can exist.
How did terezi come to having her red blindfold?
She made it
is it ever explained what the barcodes on the wrists of the carapacians signify?
Barcodes mean that they’re clones.
are there going to be another genesis frog searching on lofaf thing
No, they already made the Genesis Tadpole, they just need to go get it from Echidna.
Do you talk about homestuck with your friends or do you just keep it inside
I tend to overwhelm people when I talk about Homestuck one-on-one so I usually keep it inside.
Can you explain ectobiology?
For ectobiology you attempt to appearify something/someone in the past but they can’t teleport to you or they’d break their timeline so what appears before you is a bunch of goop basically has their dna/genetic makeup.
John did this for Nanna, Mom Lalonde, Bro Strider, and Grandpa Harley. Half of this goop was used to make clones of those people which would later be sent into the past to become those people. And the other half of the goop was used to make the kids. Nanna and Grandpa Harley’s goop was mixed together to create baby John and Jade. While Bro’s and Mom Lalonde’s was mixed together to make Rose and Dave.
Karkat’s was a bit more complicated because trolls.
Didn't Hussie said "From now Johndave is canon"?
All ships are canon except Johndave
is davekat canon?
Pretty much, but not quite
NOT A FACT OR ANYTHING BUT one of the submitted posts ( post/36450248338 ) is wrong, that user wasnt jade, jade was just viewing the profile. hussie liked that artist so he gave her a cameo on the webcomic.
That fact is almost three years old, why are you in so deep
Does Jade have a tail?
No
If Colonel Sassacre and the Condesce were married then doesn't that technically make her John's great great grandma?
Technically she’s be John and Jade’s Great Grandmother, yes. She married him post scratch too so she’s also Jake and Jane’s Great Grandma.
Yo can you supply a source for a scratch not being possible in caliborn's session?
It hasn’t been stated in story that it’s impossible, but the Cali’s weren’t made through ectobiology and Caliborn’s session didn’t have a Reckoning so a scratch wouldn’t change anything. Also he doesn’t have Echidna as a denizen or have Needlekind so he wouldn’t be able to initiate the scratch regardless.
Who started calling Dave 'Cool Kid' first?
Terezi
Does every Space Player has to have "Frogs" in their planet name.
If they’re in a successful session, yes
Do we know anything about the pre-scratch ancestors, that is Karkat's generation in the beforus universe?
The only one we know about if Beforan Feferi. She was obviously the Empress and a very kind one at that.
Did jake wake up her dream self before the game, if so how?
Jake’s dreamself died before he could wake up
About Jake and Dirk dating, do we ever see one asking the other out? Or is the whole relationship set during the 5 months the alpha kids are playing that we don't get to see?
It’s all set in the 5 months, we don’t see anything but the end of it.
quest cocoons are a round stone bed in a large recuperacoon-esque structure
Yes
What does/do you think happens to all the kids of failed SBURB sessions?
they die. simple as that. Or the god tier ones live forever alone given that they cannot die of age or illness.
oh, is needlekind weapon needed for scratch?
Yes, the scratch construct has to be scratched (hehe) with the Quills of Echidna in order for it to activate.
How is Vriska able to use aradia's time traveling boxes? I thought Gamzee could use them because he had the jokerkind abstratus. (I forget what Vriska has)
Time travelling devices are not weapons and therefore do not require a specibus to use them. And Vriska has dicekind.
Who or what determines the Alpha Timeline? If Paradox Space determines it, then why are there failed sessions unless those are apart of Paradox Space's "plan"?
The Alpha timeline is the once that leads to the birth of a new universe. Doomed timelines are supposed to happen, occasionally doomed timelines require some sort of time travel to go back and change the timeline, in theses instances if the doomed timeline didn’t happen then the Alpha timeline wouldn’t be able to happen either.
for the anon about dieing while your dreamself is on there slab, isent that what happened to aradia?
No, Aradia’s dreamself was killed by Bec Noir while on her slab which is why she ascended. Since she died before the game started her dreamself his not take on her wounds.
but didn't Bro use his sword to finish the scratch?
Bro used his sword in an attempt to start the scratch but it didn’t work
What happened to the Condesce in Pre-Scratch Earth?
She left
Dirk always had control of his dreamself, so does that mean the kiss that AR urged between Jake and headless Dirk wasn't necessary whatsoever? So in other words it was just part of AR's, and possibly also Dirk's, manipulative schemes to mess with jake?
No, it was necessary. Dirk’s dreamself was knocked out at the time and the kiss woke him up.
I'm not sure the dream self thing is accurate (if the dream self were on the sacrificial slab). I don't recall Waking Self wounds ever taking effect on a Dream Self. If Dream Selves were injured and died in sync with their respective players, then what would be the point of having one?
After Vriska was beat up by Aradia her dreamself started to bleed too. And they don’t die in sync. There’s a bit of a delay to give other players time to kiss the dead one to wake their dreamself or to get them to the questbed/cocoon. Obviously if they died at the same time they wouldn’t be able to ascend.
What happens if a player were to die before entering the Medium, but were somehow revived before entering as well? Is that possible? More of a opinion question I guess since its never happened (the closest instances being with Sollux and the Alpha kids).
That did happen with Roxy and Dirk. In that case they could use the teleporters on Prospit and Derse to get back to Earth. The Derse duo ended up entering with Jake. How other players would pull that off is unknown, they’d probably have to hitch a ride home.
If someone whose dream self is alive dies and no one ends up kissing their corpse, does their dream self die as well?
Yes, except for in Aradia’s case since she died before the game started.
are u sure about the pre-scratch condesce? like, didn't she get there before 1910 when the scratch timelines split off? i thought that the pre-scratch her died from meteors and the version of her we're seeing is from the post-scratch universe.
Maybe but accourding to Nannasprite she just disappeared one day so I think it’s more likely that she left. But who knows.
i read your answer about vriska having dicekind as her having dickkind....
She has that too, how else would she be able to use personality?
why did [s] Jade: Wake Up happen?
Her dreamself was dead and the special dreambubbles weren’t setup yet
Why did aradia become a ghost instead of just dying like everyone else.
Because she hadn’t started playing the game yet
What time does Andrew Hussie update
It varies, midnight in some European countries
what is the shadow on the right of the last panel of the last update? no one's talking about it, so maybe it's something unimportant i forgot or don't recognize?
That would be Terezi’s head
what was aradia's strife specibus before she was killed? hmm??
She had Whipkind
What happened to Fedorafreak?
He ascended to the Gent of Piss
So what's going to happen to Gamzee, exactly?
The Gamzee that we’ve seen hanging out with Caliborn, that’s (probably) this Gamzee.
Does it ever get stressful answering all these questions? apologies for giving you another one. Pretty ironic. ovo;
Yes, frankly it does, especially when it gets back logged and things get buried.
The sole reason I added another mod was because the inbox has been congested for awhile and I was having a hard time dealing with it. Another mod is helping but we still have nearly a thousand things in the inbox, it’ll probably take a couple weeks/ months to get back down to four hundred.
Was it ever confirmed which of the Alpha kids are prospit dreamers and which are derse?
Jake and Jane are Prospit. Dirk and Roxy are Derse.
what exactly /is/ a scratch
Okay, here’s the basic-est way to explain it.
Y’know the portals that the kids get sent through as babies when they’re riding the meteors? The scratch changes where those portals go and rewrites history to accommodate that change.
what's the current status of Aradia?
She’s alive, chillin in the dreambubbles cause she can
How did Jack get the Black Queen's ring again?
He killed her because she made him wear a silly hat.
