February 2018

Say Dad was Nanna’s and Pop’s biological son in the beta and alpha sessions, that means that John’s adopted father was his half-brother and Jane’s was her grandson.

Yep, IF he was the biological son. For all we know, he’s the pure manifestation of hatred for hair spawned upon the Earth.

What counts as a just death? Would someone who hates humanity because of how they grew up, then died, would it be just?

Just Deaths are decided on a case by case basis. However, Paradox Space doesn’t like those who impose their wills on others and force them to do stuff and just, treat undeserving people badly.

Is there a difference to what happens after player death depending on it being Just or Heroic? Do they just both send players to a dream bubble or does something different happen?

Nope, it’s just death.

Does bec have any memories of being doc scratch or is he just instinctual to how skaia works?

First Guardians are separate entities and not tied to one another. They’re also more tied to the Green Sun than to Skaia.

Do space players unintentionally make a session harder? When bec was prototyped into the kernelsprite, it made jack ultra powerful(even if it was part od the time loop that got everyone on the same beta session).

Nah, anyone can fuck up the Session.

Suppose you prototyped a living person from your world who is not part of your main client-server loop. Would they still have a classpect in the game? If so, could they count as the session’s Space player and make your session winnable? What if that person was part of their own player chain and would have had their own session (which is now doomed by their absence)?

Everyone has a Classpect in Homestuck, it’s a part of the nature of the world. However, it would still not work- Even if they are a Space Player, they don’t have an attached Land, and as such, no Frogs.

I'd prototype my feralstuck trollsona and then prototype myself because I'm a fucking furry

Lmao. I wonder what traits would carry over to God Tier.

If you prototype a drawing of your trollsona and yourself then godtier, would you have the butterfly wings

Maybe? You may also maybe get horns. It’s hard to tell how much carries over. For Jade it was just her ears, canonically.

So you know how dreamselves can change their form bases on how you view yourself, right? Does that carry over to your godtier? (The ability to change form I mean)

I don’t quite think so- I like to think the shift occurs not because it’s your Dream Self, and rather, because you’re in your Dream Room. Jade grows multiple arms but only inside of the tower. The room, the dolls, nightmares and dreams, stuff materializes in Prospit and Derse- But only within the rooms. As such, it leads me to believe these changes happen because of the nature of the rooms- Which is that of a Dream.

Say you prototype a character as a sprite, would they be able to join your session as a client/server?

I believe yes, but they would need to go back out of the Session somehow to re-enter, which seems a bit convoluted.

Can you prototype ghost images of your ocs? Can you alchemize/prototype them?

You can alchemize ghost images of stuff, but not prototype them, because ghost images aren’t physical, tangible objects, they’re non-existent representations.

Could you have an entire player chain prototype themselves on either their own or each other’s sprites pre-entry, to have everyone be a stronger and less fragile game construct, but still have their own Lands and classpects and everything needed to win? Second prototypings might be awkward, but maybe they’re all furries or something.

I mean, TECHNICALLY it could work but the hoops you’d need to go through are astonishing.

So we know that a dreamself reflects ones idea self, like Tavros being able to walk and fly, but what extent does this happen, or at least what are your ideas on it? Does a dreamself stay in its original state, and only changes with the things you’re ok with, (Terezi staying blind, Vriska not missing her eye+arm) or would it be able to change your body from something it wasn’t originally? (

I feel there’s certain limitations to it and things the game won’t do- However I’d totally see Dream Selves being kind of a blessing for Trans individuals! No need for HRT or Operations.

If you prototype a picture of davesprite and another picture of davesprite would it make davesprite^2 or davesprite^3?

I think it would just make Davesprite, because the picture itself is not a Sprite.

Could a rouge of hope steal a space player from the hope of winning a session, then adding them to the chain?

Lmao, that’s a bit convoluted but, if you can find a Space Player like that and Ascend before closing the chain, maybe?

I meant like have a ghost image of an oc, alchemize that oc into existence, the prototype it

Now we’re talking. Of course the Alchemiter will likely only make the picture of the OC, rather than creating life. You can then bring it to life by prototyping it.

What do you think would happen if you prototyped a disk of sburb (in a kernelsprite) This question has been haunting me. For months.

I’ve always thought it would be like, a Glitchsprite.

What determines how much of the prototype is integrated into your god tier?

It seems somewhat arbitrary? Hussie seemed to imply Jade only got ears to showcase she sort of ‘predominated’ over Bec’s will, even if he comes through at times with the barks and doggy mannerisms.

Hello! I’m a rage player and I’m trying to decide if I’m an active or passive person. Are there any specific questions I should ask myself or things to know in order to decide? Thanks for taking the time to read this!

Well, when it comes to being happy, do you have the tendency to aid your friends be happy, or are you more focused on making yourself happy?

If Cal was prototypes before entry, could the royalty gain some resemblance to LE powers? Or just look like a puppet? I always thought that would be a great way to screw up a session.

Huh, I’d imagine there would be, if not LE powers, actually making the Royalty like hosts to LE, like Scratch?

What would happen if you prototyped a weapon or an abiotic non-human object such as a rake or a knife?

Chances are, object-headed sprites? I don’t think there’s any restriction on that, but the Kernel DOES prefer dead things or like, more sentient stuff, so there’s a possibility it would reject it.

A playersprite would still have a dream self, right? But do sprites even need to sleep? A playersprite probably also can’t god tier easily because they’re hard to kill, so the dream self isn’t even a good backup life. Maybe it could serve as a second prototyping though, for the rare sburb player who isn’t a furry.

God, if you prototype your normal self, would Ascension work the same way? That’s a weird thing to consider- Wait no, Aradia did that, she was a Sprite inside of Aradiabot- Wait but she ascended on the Quest Crypt. I think it may invalidate normal Ascension? Hmm.

Gah this Extended Zodiac has me torn on my aspect, I can’t decide between Light or Mind. At first I think Light, but I could see mind, and then maybe Breath because I feel like maybe deep down I could relate to that? And then the fact that I’m obsessing over his maybe makes me think Heart? I just don’t know because 12 questions isn’t a lot for 12 aspects. I’ll stick white light but what do you think I should go by?

The amount of questions is definitely not enough for a solid reading, that’s why you have the Aspect Descriptions themselves. Obsessing over it may also point to Light rather than Heart.

Does roxy teleport in [s] Game over?

It always felt more like she Voids the two of them out, either becoming intangible/invisible or like. Becoming one with the Void to indeed warp away. Stealing themselves through Void.

The lyrics to Arisen Anew are "Toki no hime wa inu wo tometa" which apparently means "The Princess of Time has stopped the Dog", referencing to how Aradia has stopped Bec Noir

Yes, I cannot believe Aradia’s canon voice is Hatsune Miku.

Oh god, I just realized, if Lords command their aspect. That would mean a Lord of Rage bends the truth to fit his states.

Hmm, I feel Truth is more the domain of Light?

Also, imagine this, a Lord actually using his powers for good.

That’s the dream.

What is your favourite pokemon? Favourite type?

I think Water or Grass are good! I have. Way too many favorite Pokemon though, just in last gen alone, like. Celesteela, Nihilego, Tapu Lele, Tsareena, Salazzle, Lurantis, Mareanie, Lycanroc, Primarina…

I could list them all day, seriously.

do Maid's actually rely on others for their aspect?

Nnnnot that I can really recall?

The lyrics to Arisen Anew are "Toki no hime wa inu wo tometa" which apparently means "The Princess of Time has stopped the Dog", referencing to how Aradia has stopped Bec Noir

Yes, I cannot believe Aradia’s canon voice is Hatsune Miku.

Megurine Luka is actually the vocaloid that sings that line!

Wait is she? I guess it does sound more like Luka, huh. Deeper voice, true. 

Now we just need fanart of Aradia with Luka’s hair and outfit. Would Feferi be Miku then? Can we have AraFef art in the style of Magnet?

What is the muse description? I'm on mobile :(

:3

Wow, I wasn't sure about being a muse before, but now that I've read the description I can tell that it's 100% me

;3

Yo! Thanks for being awesome!

Aww, thank you!

I feel like Meenah and Feferi should have switched clothes to not break the pattern of normal zodiac'ed T-shirts of Alternia and the casual clothes of Beforus

They really are more fit for reach others’ worlds.

Now I want to see a vocaloid au of all the trolls

What if we go by colors? Terezi is Miku. Feferi is Luka. Sollux is both Rin and Len. Eridan as Gakupo. Gumi as Nepeta. Kaito is Equius. Meiko is Aradia.

i consider myself a light player, but i feel sort of guilty over it since i am, in fact, a man, and so far all examples of light players have either been implied to be or implicitly shown to be wlw.

If it makes you feel any better, Zebede is also a Light Player.

Since Aranea's trolltag was the same as Vriska's, aG, when she trolled with Terezi, can we say that the trolltag of the Beforan trolls would still be aA, aT, tA, cG, aC, gA, gC, cT, tC, cA and cC?

Yes, it’s likely all of their Acronyms are the same, but with different Troll Tags potentially.

If you had to assign Dad Egbert and Dad Crocker god teirs using only canon classes and aspects (No Man of Grit, Gent of Piss, etc.) what would you give them and why?

Something Life-y I feel. A Knight of Life maybe?

What would you say the heir of rages abilities are? Also, can dead sessions be based off of different games, such as roulette, and how would that affect the minions for their respective lord or muse?

I’ve talked about the Heir of Rage and Changing Rage before- As for the Dead Sessions though, it’d seem they’re Billiards-based, along with Chess and Poker, Billiards is a huge motif in Homestuck and the rules are kind of really specific for there to be more variants to the Dead Session, but hey who knows. Also it’s not even confirmed Lords and Muses only appear on Dead Sessions, nor that Dead Sessions are always started by a Lord/Muse.

Caliborn: Derse dreamer + Lord = ACTIVE^2

Add it to Time, which the Aspect Quiz told us are very fight-oriented, and you have an unholy Active Combo.

Who're funnier in terms of shenanigan? The Midnight Crew or The Felt?

I have to go with the Midnight Crew. The Felt are great, but Slick will always hold a special place in my heart.

Imagine this, what if the canon class test makes it hard for you to be a Lord/Muse? Say, you need to be royalty or have a really unique status.

It’s likely the Canon Class Quiz, if it ever happens, will either exclude Lord/Muse or make them harder to get.

Maybe Lord/Muse is restricted to Cherubims only.

Sadly, we don’t know any other Cherubs to compare them to.

You know, I've been thinking that "Red Sucker" from the Cherubim album describes how crude Caliborn's language is compared to "Green Lolly" which is a much more refined language

A Red S u c k e r .

What class would best fit a Good Dog

The Best of Friend.

A dog would obviously be the Lord of best

Lord of Boof.

How did the Cherubs' session Jack Noir travelled from Derse to Prospit to assassinate Calliope?

There’s Transportalizer systems here and there, they have flying ships, there’s like a few ways to get from one Kingdom to the other.

I don't think Lord and Muse are cherub exclusive, but I think Cherubs lend themselves to those roles more easily than humans could, since their whole lives are dictated by domination.

That is true, controlling large areas of space, a struggle between polar Good and Evil…

Would Rose's mom still be called Roxy Lalonde and Dave's brother Dirk Strider?

Yep, just like how the Handmaid was named Damara Megido.

In which language are the lyrics to Iron Infidel and INFIDELS! ?

Ancient Alternian! As far as I know, it’s a made-up language made to emulate what the guy who wrote it thought Ancient Alternian would sound like.
