Have we confirmed whether or not pre-retcon Davesprite came to the new timeline like Nannasprite or not?

Not confirmed

Can Kanaya still go godtier?

99% chance of no

I'm not sure if I asked this already but I can't remember: has Jade ever had a canon conversation with Terezi?

They have not

Is there a post-scratch troll that has never had a conversation with a human?

Nope, they’ve all talked to humans at one point or another

Can you list all the kids and trolls who've gone godtier, please? Thanks <3

John, Rose, Dave, Jade, Jane, Roxy, Dirk, Jake, Vriska, Aradia, Meenah, and Aranea. This is from the alpha timeline and not counting doomed ones.

who are the top three most powerful kids?

This is subjective but I’d say Jade obviously, John and Jake

Now that the fridge has been opened to take nepeta's head out, doesn't it means that gamzee kind of free from the fridge?or is he still in chains ?

I doubt Jasprose would let Gamzee out. He’s probably tied up in the fridge as well and didn’t get a chance to escape for the brief moment Jasprose opened the fridge.

Isn't the most powerful troll on Alternia The Handmaid?

Considering all the trolls on Alternia are children, yes.

What weapon did the version of diamonds droog who killed Dave use?

It wasn’t shown what weapon he used

Do we ever see Dave and/or Dirk's eyes?

Yes, Dave’s are red and Dirk’s are orange

Hi, I sometimes see in fanon Gamzee referring to female trolls as 'chica' or giving them a Spanish-sounding pet name... does he ever say anything like that in the comic itself?

Would you agree gamzee does not have control over himself at least in the game over session when he attacks tz

No, he had control over himself then. When he attacked Jane he was under Aranea’s influence, but he definitely didn’t for Terezi

Do you remember when Feferi roasted Vriska? Because I do.

FEFERI: Sig)(. T)(ey’re just kind of dull.
FEFERI: Life is dull and uninteresting.
FEFERI: I don’t know, maybe I’m just a little depressed.
FEFERI: You probably wouldn’t understand.
VRISKA: Sure I would! We all have our off days. Hey, if you need someone to talk to, I’m…
FEFERI: Pffffffffffffffffff )(-E)(-E)(-E)(-E!
FEFERI: PSYYYYYYC)(-E )(-E-E )(-E-E )(-E-E )(-E-E )(OO )(OO )(OO! 38D
FEFERI: )(oly crap did I get you good! )(ey, Sollux! Did you catc)( any of t)(at?
FEFERI: A live one jumped rig)(t into my boat! A real suckerfis)(! Woo)(oo)(oo. )(ow do you like t)(at, spider)(ag! Sea dwellers represent!!!
VRISKA: That was…
VRISKA: Surprisingly nasty of you.
VRISKA: I’m impressed!

is there any way terezi and/or karkat could become god tier in the alpha timeline? or is there not enough time left ?

There’s no way for them to God Tier. And even if Roxy could create sacrificial slabs for them, that’s just be sloppy story telling

was sollux's tongue proven to be split or is that a fandom thing????

Fanon

so the limeblooded trolls are all extinct. why?

UU: details of the genocide are historically mUrky. it’s one of those maddening voids in my Understanding of yoUr elaborate epic.
UU: bUt i have specUlated their extermination had to do with the extremely powerfUl abilities they tended to have, and the threat to aUthority they represented. even more so than other powerfUl lowbloods.

you probs get this question a lot but what is the difference between a heroic and a just death for a god tier?

“ One may be killed by opposing a corrupt adversary and die for a just cause, as through martyrdom, for instance. This would be heroic.
Or one may be subject to corruption, and slain by a hero. This would be just.”

What was the last page to be posted before the gigapause began?

This one

do you want the remaining trolls to go god tier?

No, not really. I don’t their character developments would benefit from it and it wouldn’t make sense for them to at this point from a narrative standpoint 

A lot of people are saying vriska should've had tavros mind control gcat instead of ruining his life once again but could tavros have even been able to control a first guardian? Is there any kind of precedent for it?

Gcat is an animal, Tavros can control animals. Plus he controlled Bec from a different universe so he would have no problem controlling Gcat.

What's the easiest way to describe the quadrants?

<3 Human Romance, <> Pacifier,  <3< Arch-Rivalry, c8< Intermediary

Why did jade merge with her sprite when she went god teir?

Because Jadesprite was prototyped with her dreamself which the player turns into when they die on their Quest Bed

When did Karkat die?

Here, Here, Here, and Here

I want to point out that at no point does it say prototyping two sprites creates a black hole, it was just fanon that that was how Caliborn's situation happened before it was explained. When Hussie explained it in the comic, he stated that the game's nature changed and caused the kernelsprite to collapse, not that Calliope and Caliborn's sprites prototyped each other. (I searched "black hole" into the Act 6 search to find this)

Yes it’s fanon, but Caliborn’s sprite was flashing his and Calliope’s colors much like Jasprose does with Rose and Roxy’s colors. Plus prototyping two empty kernels with each other is essentially dividing by zero which theoretically creates a black hole so it just makes sense. But you’re right, it’s entirely not canon.

since tavros can control /all/ animals, does that mean he can potentially control the entire universe. since it's technically a frog. and frogs are animals.

That. Is an interesting question. I’m going to say no such because Genesis Frogs are so large.

fhsf mods confirmed for hussie. not a specific mod, but all of them. combined together like the mega-gnome from gravity falls

Hussie confirmed to be two tumblr users in a trench coat.

I keep hearing that there was a mention of bulges but I don't think I ever noticed it?? Did any of the trolls or anyone mention bulges? Sorry ask about nsfw stuff

Bulges are mentioned a few times in canon. Although we aren’t really sure exactly what they are, could be a tentacle, could be a genital, could be a extra hand growing from their loins, we just don’t know.

when was the last time tavros' ghost was seen before this most recent update?

Here, when he flew into the air flipping (Vriska) off

Which human did Feferi talk to??

She talked to Jade, just after [S] Jade: Wake Up

Was there ever any implication that Tavros, the Summoner, or even any troll of their blood colour could talk to Gl'bgolyb using their psychic abilities?

It’s never been mentioned

so is this new tavros we see in the update like the ORIGINAL tavros??? from the main session we watched before the retcon and such?

Yep, the original Pre-Retcon Tavros, that’s him

Regarding today's update, there were no dead versions of Gamzee, Kurloz, Damara, Aranea, Aradia, or Vriska shown at all. And the main version of Meenah is the only one shown.

There are Aradia’s in there. As for Gamzee and Meenah, do to Gamzee not being able to die (Plot Armor) and Meenah having a really long lifespand, they both continue living in doomed sessions until the sessions fade out and cease to exist, that’s why there aren’t any of their ghosts around.  Kurloz and Damara are in service of Lord English and wouldn’t actively participate in a rally against him. And as for Aranea, she just sucks.

Hey, sorry could you tag your Upd8 related asks? :0 I haven't read it yet

God Dammit, I can remember every tiny detail of homestuck but I can never remember to tag upd8 spoilers, ugh. Sorry, yes I can do that.

is the portal we see in the recent update supposed to summon the so-called weapon or is IT the weapon?

What portal? There was no portal in the upd8

There are only Aradiabots, not Aradias

Aradiabots are Aradia, there’s only one Aradia that’s not an Aradiabot and she’s still alive

Wait how old is the alive vriska [i know shes seven sweeps but what does that make her in human age]

16

Are you proud of Tavros in the upd8??

Yeah man, it’s good to see him finally taking up his role as Page of Breath.

I think the portal guy ask is talking about the compasses in the sky of the land of maps and treasure

In that case, it is not a portal, that is just how the sky looks

Which human did Fieri talk to??

ALL OF THEM

Is the reason Sollux talked with a lisp that he had 2x as many teeth as normal, which is why his lisp went away when he fell down the stairs and got them knocked out?

Probably, having messed up teeth can cause a lii2p

Wait how can pre-retcon tavros fly? He wasn't god tier was he?

He’s a ghost

in your opinion, what do you think nepetasprite will be prototyped with? you don't have to answer, i just wanted to know your opinion ^_^

I think arquietasprite^2 would be amazing, but naw she’s probably not gonna get prototyped with another character, maybe one of Roxy’s wizard dolls or something.

Isn't there technically two Aradias now with the retcon shit that happened?

Maybe? We aren’t sure how the Retcon affect the people that were still alive.

Where did we learn that ghosts can fly?

Tavros flew away, then Nepeta and Feferi flew away

is it possible to see every outfit Kanaya has ever worn

You can see them all on her Wiki page

Can all God Tiers fly? -such as Roxy

Yes

why do troll godtiers have wings?

Because Trolls are an insectoid race 

so could trolls get wings without becoming godtier?

Through mutation like Rufioh
