so actually

“dad” is easily the most confusing character in homestuck, for me.  where did he even come from?  way i see it is, in the original kids’ session, john ecto-created everyone and they were sent back in time to their respective destinations and eras.  dad was not part of this group.  the relationships between the kids and their guardians, meaning john/nanna, jade/grandpa, dave/bro, and rose/mom, were not established through any kind of union or birthing on earth.  the kids fell out of the sky on meteors, you know?  (the latest jane update wow, lol.)

but dad.  he was clearly referred to as nanna’s son when john glimpsed them via the monitor in the ecto lab.  “An old woman is escorted by her son on a lovely day. A target has been locked over the gentleman’s mother.”

(A)  then john will be jane’s grandpa?

(B)  who was “dad’s” father?

©  if (A) is true and (B) is relevant, who is jane’s dad’s mother?!

DISCUSS.
