Snrk, that’s a fair assessment! Honestly speaking though, at this point all I know about Star Wars is the memes.
Space (With the Scenario and Visual Arts), Time (If it’s more of a Musical Theatre), and Light (Literal Spotlight) all fit nicely into Theatre stuff.
After checking through the Transcript, I’ve noticed something! Hussie put English Sentences through Google Translate and pulled them in short bursty sentences to ensure translating it back gave good enough results- However, it’s been six years since then and Google’s Translation Algorithm has gotten better! This means the translation it gives for Damara’s Text is no longer as accurate as it was in the past. With that in mind, I’ve slightly edited the more incomprehensible sentences to what seemed to be the original meaning, or something close to it.
He’s nothing if not god damn Tenacious and Insistent, however he also ignores Constructive Criticism which isn’t exactly the best. That being said? And as shitty as the Deviantart Art was? He did have visible artistic growth through the series and that was interesting to see, him just kind of. Getting better at drawing.
Also I absolutely adore Caliborn’s shitty art and I’ve considered doing mock drawings in his style at some point.
This reads exactly like…
Okay forget what I may have said about laziness, the Page of Time, being Served Time, means they’d never run out of the stuff- That is, for anything they need to do they would always have a little bit more time. And a little bit more. It’s not Procrastination when Time never runs out to do whatever it is you have to do.
“Basically, without the livestock”, until ARquius’ Creation, that is.
Potentially, although Destruction sounds a bit more of a potent process than twiddling your fingers, it would likely be mechanically different, but similar in its result.
Oh boy, you underestimate the reach of Caliborn’s Lord of Time powers. Mr Buffskull’s desires just so happen to dictate, along with Calliope since he’s chasing after her, practically every main event that happens in Homestuck and what the Alpha Timeline requires. He may not actively use Time Fuckery that much himself, but he’s Predestination at its finest. He doesn’t need to take hold of the Timeline most of the time. He’s already there.
Like Dave, of course. No, not the Rap god dammit-
By ‘Like Dave’, I mean how Servicial he is towards his friends. He’s practically helping someone out every step of his journey, farming money to send it to Terezi in the past and make them notice there’s someone they’re contacting, becoming the literal Server for both Jade and Rose, using his Time Shenanigans to make sure the Session has enough time to go around, charting the Furthest Ring to get him and Rose to the Green Sun before the Tumor Detonates, fighting through the use of Time Shenanigans, and with Time-based weaponry, to protect those around him.
The main trait of a Knight of Time, is that they’ve always got Time for those they care about.
I mean, regarding his Time Powers? Yeah, mostly because he doesn’t have to do anything himself, the Timeline works the kinks out by itself. He does have a pretty sweet rainbow blast though.
Also, “One-Trick Pony”, how Ironic, that Lord English’ Roasting would happen in the vicinity of a horse reference.
#SpoilerWarning.
If they do not want to do an activity or bear someone nagging at them, they could Steal Time- Making it skip and seemingly fast forwarding through a rant or making someone think they’ve been doing something for so long they lost track of Time, thus stopping them on their tracks, or literally skipping through something boring, long and tedious without actually having to do anything.
Interesting combo, but I don’t tend to do fights or vs scenarios. I barely do any specific personality stuff either other than broad traits, too.
Ooooh. The joke wet right over my head honestly. I still kinda like the Bull Penis Cane quote though.
I feel a Heart or Blood Player would work better for that, since it feels like, having it deteriorate over time would only happen if they were already predisposed to have their Friendship go that route. Otherwise, true friends, no matter how much time passes, would keep sticking together.
I believe the Maid of Void was actually what started the Power Abuse Questions, like, we joked they’d just disappear when things got ugly. Literally disappear, since they’re Made of Void.
The Alpha Timeline seems absurdly arbitrary at times, but when you look at it, every single thing that happens in Homestuck is shaped by Lord English. The Alpha Timeline is basically the sequence of events required to Make Him Exist, since Lord English is Already There, and he’s the Lord of Time, everything becomes an intricate Loop meant to make him come into being.
Davesprite’s Timeline isn’t Doomed just because John Died- It’s Doomed because Cal was prototyped, and Cal is a necessary compotent to make Doc Scratch. The Scratch and the Kids reaching the new Session are absolutely required to create Universe C where Caliborn will be born in the first place- Thus Condy is sent to both Pre and Post Scratch Earth to supervise and pave the way for the Universe’s Creation, even though Condy dislikes English in general, she’s still his Handmaid after all. Lord Jack was basically fated to be defeated, because his defeat gathered Gamzee, the Crowbar, and Yaldabaoth from LOTAK, which are all things Caliborn would later use during his Quest. Gamzee is supposed to become part of Lord English, so he cannot die, no matter how ridiculous his wounds are or what happens to him, he has to reach Caliborn.
And Calliope is also culprit in shaping every event of the story! She’s hidden within the Bubbles, waiting, so Lord English chases after her, destroying everything in his path- This kills the Horrorterrors, which makes them seek out for help from the Beta Kids, which leads to the plan to Blow up the Green Sun, which ends up creating it instead, and as the Universe Ends detonating the Tumor, Lord English is born in the first place.
The search for the Juju granted John his Retcon Powers, which was the thing that made them be able to reach Caliborn in the first place, trapping their Souls in the Juju that would rather allow John to zap around, and also causing Caliborn, half of Gamzee, and ARquius to become trapped inside of Cal before being Voided Out- Making the search for the Weapon to destroy Him the trigger to actually allow his existence in the first place.
Everything that happens in the story is shaped by either Lord English, or one of his collaborators- Doc Scratch, Damara, Gamzee, Kurloz… And so the Alpha Timeline is paved as a Time Loop Lord English has created, but everyone else needs to follow strictly lest they become Doomed. He basically takes away the characters’ Free Will by his mere existence, which is why I like an ending taking place in a Non-Alpha Timeline, and where the Kids don’t necessarily need to fulfill the Masterpiece and go after Caliborn- They’re basically breaking out of the Loop thanks to John’s Retcon Powers. At least that’s how I like to see the Ending, we’ll see when the Epilogue comes around how accurate that is.
I’m sure there’s worse things but the first one that comes to mind is blowing their lungs from the inside out or intoxicating them by increasing the amount of oxygen in the air or crushing them with increased air pressure.
Night Guy may be a Doom Thing, not quite sure about the Class- Perhaps a Bard? A Maid? Whichever case, the 8 Gates fits into the “High energy output but unsustainable and often self-sacrificial” aspect of Doom. As for a Susanoo, I feel something Heart or Hope-based could work. A Knight perhaps to Wield it, albeit a Page may work as well.
I feel the implication was, rather, that Karkat, Terezi and John still had a purpose in the Alpha Timeline. John, specially, is an extremely important part of the Alpha Timeline to gain the Retcon Powers and bring Lord English into being. Karkat and Terezi have less defined roles than that, but they’re a big part of the group through Act 6, both in the GO! Timeline and in the Retconned one. Not sure to what extent Scratch knew about this or how far ahead Hussie had planned. Perhaps he knew already about Vriska being brought back by Terezi’s planning? Hmmm.
God I love when Songs do that, I just checked. Obviously not the same Song but yes, you can still hear the English theme rather noticeably. Another Song that does this is Flare.
Honestly, it never sounded like “i’ll do it” in the sense of “i’m coming to smack you up bro”, it really just seemed like him saying “i’ll break my phone dude, stop talking to me!”
I mean, first of all, the Caliborn teasing John is not even the Caliborn from the Masterpiece, because he doesn’t have the Ring. So straight away, they wouldn’t be warping to beat this Caliborn’s ass, or Caliborn’s ass in that moment. But second- Look at the rest. John is kind of depressed and needs something to do, and I could see him going ALONE to beat Caliborn’s Ass. But, Rose being lovingly married to Kanaya and helping with the Mother Grub? Roxy, Callie and Jane being happy together? Karkat and Dave being boyfriends with the potential Poly Jade? Dirk and Jake ambiguously reconciled and sparring together and making fun robots?
Unless there’s a solid reason for them to go back and risk their lives, it’s going to take more than John Egbert wanting to slap Caliborn’s face to get them to do it. I’m not saying they’re not going to go after him later, when some time passes and something happens, but definitely not right after the Credits.
English but reversed
Did this with Audacity on my own, but thanks for this so everyone can have a little listen!
This is something that happens though- Not exactly but, some characters are the happier when they find a way to come to terms with their Aspect and their Complementary, like (Vriska) stopping trying to be so Relevant, or Dave stopping wanting to Time Travel at all, it’s not quite healthy to obsess over your Aspect and forgetting everything else, and it’s not healthy to refuse it completely and try to liken yourself to something else.
Seer knowing a lot about OCs, running an OC analyzation blog, but doubting the realism of their characters. Witch taking unused OCs and turning them into amazingly well developed characters. Heir creating OCs just for fun, but creates excellent ones. Thief getting lots of inspiration from others, creating the ultimate frankenstein OC, who results to be unbelievably good. Rogue making OC adopts for free because they feel like they aren’t good enough, actually making fantastic OCs.
That’s. Yeah, Heart and OCs is a good pair for sure, I’m only sad now that we never got to know what Dirk’s Fursona is. Nepeta did have quite the nice RP Persona!
I did a bunch about the Knight of Life actually!
That being said, I personally don’t quite know if the Knight represents what’s missing in the Session, I mean it sort of fits but also not necessarily? I don’t tend to consider that much of a factor when it comes to Knights, but it could be.
I don’t think that could quite happen, even Glitched. Titles are awarded by how each person is, not as an arbitrary set of powers- If something like that happened it’d likely be more in name rather than in function.
They could definitely steal other’s irrelevance, leaving themselves less and less relevant, while bumping others, but also remember they could Steal Horrorterror Stuff and go all Grimdark, so that’s a possibility as well.
:V Thing is, Classes work as the How, to the Aspects’ What. Having a How of How and a What of What doesn’t make any sense in the way Powers are compounded at all.
A Thief of Void that gets carried away could definitely turn into nothing- But they don’t necessarily have to. They may also Steal THROUGH Irrelevancy- By not being seen, detected, or that important, they could snatch the most important thing in the Session right from under everyone else’s noses! They’re the sneakiest. Also, becoming Nothing doesn’t have to be bad- Like Roxy, who becomes invisible and intangible at will.
Why this, Anon.
I’ve honestly never quite understood the whole OC adopting stuff but, mhmm! :o
Yes, yes they could.
I mean, a Mage of all things, while the more prone to try and change things of the two, is still one of the Know Classes. Other Classes I could see doing things for others and not letting them do anything, altering their Agency and sorta coddling and babying them or outright not letting them do anything and doing it themselves instead. But a Mage? They could still abuse their Lifey powers, and always get their way with what they know they should be doing, but other than that, there’s nothing monumentally big to take that far.
Something Mind-y likely, not quite sure, maybe a Page of Mind?
Blood and Heart have some Overlap- Bonds and Feelings aren’t the same, but they tend to go hand in hand. If you change someone’s bond with someone else but they still feel the same about them, it could lead to a painful break-up, whereas changing someone’s Feelings would lead to a more mutual break-up, but in both cases, the result is the same. So relationships are both Heart and Blood based.
It would help understanding what Lord English is in the first place, because you know what? We only ever get a single proper image of Lord English’ True Form. Are you ready? Are you ready??
That’s Lord English. Now let me explain- During the Masterpiece, Gamzee is cut in half by Dirk’s Sword, arguably, and then Caliborn is snatched by ARquius when no one is looking. With this act of self-sacrifice, Caliborn is left open for Dirk to rip his Soul and stuff it into the Lil Cal Caliborn has been carrying around all this time…
Except he’s not the only thing to be stuffed into Lil Cal. There’s ARquius, and there’s half of Gamzee. Caliborn is the main component of Lord English, yes- But he appears as a manifestation of the tenacious mix of souls stuffed into Lil Cal and banished into the Furthest Ring. Every iteration of Lord English, even the ‘main one’, is just that. An Iteration of Lord English. Born from that single Puppet.

ARANEA: I didn’t say you were supposed to kill him.
ARANEA: He cannot 8e killed.
ARANEA: Long ago he discovered the secret to indestructi8ility.
JAKE: Oh…
ARANEA: Defeating a foe doesn’t always involve killing.
ARANEA: He has had many incarnations in many universes.
ARANEA: If you continue on your journey for long enough, you may encounter one of them.
ARANEA: And if you have 8ecome strong enough 8y then, you may 8e a8le to defeat him in com8at.
ARANEA: And if that comes to pass, it would 8e the first defeat he has ever known.
ARANEA: You would 8e providing the first glimmer of hope to others that some day, he could 8e destroyed.
Lord English is absolutely Immortal, not just because with Yaldabaoth’s Boon his ‘main’ body so to speak is unkillable, but also, because he’s not the only English out there. Lord Jack? That’s Lord English as well. Possessing Jack’s body, but manifesting his very Soul, his Essence, his Power. He’s not any less Lord English than Big Buffskull himself. So, the main, Immortal body that is Buffskull English is smacked into the Breach, collapsing him forever within a Black Hole, and Paradox Space is destroyed to ensure every last remnant of his Soul goes with him, dragging that Lil Cal Doll in the Furthest Ring deeper into the abyss of nothingness, where it cannot arise as Nightmares in any Universe ever again. That’s the only way he can truly know defeat.
Lord English is more of a ‘presence’ living inside of a Lil Cal Doll in the Furthest Ring, and manifesting through all of reality, as Lil Cal, as Doc Scratch, as Jack English, not just Buffskull English. But that aside, the main Soul within Cal is Caliborn, with half of Gamzee…
And a healthy dose of ARquius…
This astonishing revelation was actually the entire point of the MSPA Fan Mental Breakdown flash, aside from giving us a Cal Timeline.
Thief or Rogue of Heart may be good at that. Mind perhaps too?
Not really- I don’t tend to do ability mixes or relationships or team match-ups, mainly because there’s a hundred different ways to combine Classpects together, it depends heavily on the situation, it could literally be anything.
I mean they all make their respective things. The Heart OC thing was because an OC could be seen as a ‘Soul’, a Persona, so it fits the Heart motif. Others would have their respective Aspect-aligned stuff.
Porrim doesn’t suck. She scrapes and licks.
Oh God Dammit.
This is your daily reminder to check my tags in case I’ve already covered a Classpect.
That is true, I don’t tend to tag puns or silly things too much.
I’m gonna shit a house you guys.
I’ve talked about them already and kind of, I likened the Knight of Space to Santa Claus, just kinda offering presents to everyone. Serving them stuff.
Ah yes more movies I’ve not watched. I’m so sorry guys I really need to get up to date with my Pop Culture.
Why must you be like this, guys.
