OTP! <3 Good Golly I wish I could do stuff like this! =o
π: 0 β©: 0
No, don't ever stop with the Homestuck!
Great picture.
π: 0 β©: 1
I wish I knew how to quit them. ;__; Since by one I apparently meant four.
π: 0 β©: 1
Well, I surely don't mind. I always enjoy great Jake/Dirk pictures like this. ^_^
(No, I'm not obsessed. ...Not unhealthily at least.)
π: 0 β©: 1
I spent several hours consumed with feels when I basically first got to them shhhhhhhh you don't need to know that.
π: 0 β©: 1
Well, I fell in love with Dirk at first sight. Which is kind of funny since I didn't really care for him as Bro Strider in the Beta timeline all that much... anyways. I fell for him even more the moment Roxy accused him of being gay for Jake.
And thus my new OTP was born.
π: 0 β©: 1
Eh. Bro didn't get a lot of lines pre Scratch. And by not a lot I mean like none. The meteor cutting bit was pretty damn awesome though.
I found it kind of hard to ship anything in Homestuck before. Cause they were thirteen. And acted like it. So it wasn't anything particularly moral (lolthat'sterrible).
Then suddenly ohmygod mature, ACTUALLY COOL Dirk ffffff, hilarious derp Jake, sweet yet cynical Jane, sassy Roxy, reading the chat logs is actually amusing and innuendo filled, also angst and dead dream boyfriends, I approve of this.
π: 0 β©: 1
True. ^_^ He had a lot of fans since the beginning though, I just wasn't one of them.
You're kinda right with the shipping. I mean, they ARE thirteen and it's just a little bit weird to think about thirteen-year-olds like this. (With the trolls it was easier - but I think that's only because romance seems to be such a great part of troll culture, even from a very young age, so...)
I was actually very sceptic about the Alpha kids at first - now I love them. Especially Dirk. And I think it's easier to ship them because they themselves have an actual interest in love and relationships. (Like the trolls.)
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah, I guess. I was really skeptic about the Alpha kids too. OMG more retards. Well, the trolls are too... Idk, they're really too much like a personalization of one trait for me. Idk. It's weird. KK seems like the only one with a fleshed out personality? Cause he's angry (so angry), yet helps out the others with their relationship problems? Maybe I'm just inattentive.
π: 0 β©: 1
Hm, yeah, now that you mention it... Most of the trolls really don't seem to have much of a personality. It's more like they're just playing some kind of role that's been ascribed to them. In my opinion Hussie disregarede some oft he trolls a bit and that's the reason they may seem a bit lacking personality-wise.
On the other hand it's not too bad for the fandom because you can take more liberties with the characters. For example: My favourite troll (besides KK) is Eridan (for some weird reason). Now in the comic itself he hasn't played a very important role. So I find it very entertaining to see how other fans see him or how they characterize him. Of course that's the case with the kids too but I think with the trolls you have more possibilities as a fan to be creative yourself. (Take the whole humanstuck!universes alone.)
(Wow, look at this treatise.)
π: 0 β©: 1
Ssssssh, conversations are awesome(totally started reading from the end I should stop).
I don't blame him, though, handling 12 separate characters? That is difficult. D: And yeah I suppose, you can go on wild speculative tangents and different universes and all that jazz. I'm new to the fandom though so I haven't had the time to delve into any -stucks unfortunately. Still digesting the wtfjusthappenedanditgoingtowhyisthereanintermissionfuck. When the story reaches a lull I'm sure I'll go exploring in the wild and vicious (or so I hear) fandom. Adventure ahoy.
π: 0 β©: 1
Haha, true.
I don't blame him either. I mean, it's not easy wiriting a good story, especially one like Homestuck where there are so many characters. He's still doing an amazing job. And I think it's only natural that there are persons who are characterized more and better than others. (Like with main and supporting characters.)
Pff, yeah, "wild and vicious" is a fitting description. XD I'm not too much of an expert myself but I read lots of fanfictions and there is some truly amanzing stuff. And it's also entertaining to see with what kind of -stucks people can come up with. (Yes, I admit it, even I myself have a -stuck I'm working on.)
π: 0 β©: 1
I am so new to thissssss. I started reading it like around Valentines day or so? Finished it in three weeks one to two days a week. So I'd say it's very good. Also, I'm a fast reader.
And before I started (well I tried starting a couple of times, all of which ended in omg this is boring (well there was the one time I didn't read the chatlogs and got super confused)) all I knew is some idiots were moving in to our dorms in Homestuck cosplay, which was in August, and that's where I knew that these people are insane. And there's several armadas worth of ships, so there are bound to be wars.
Oy, I'm going to sit here in the popular DirkJake section and shoosh up. ono
π: 0 β©: 1
I don't even remember when I started reading Homestuck. Last Septmeber I think? Something like that.
And in the beginning it is a bit boring, that's true, but it doesn't take long and you're addicted. X3 Though sometimes I'm still kinda confused about what's happening but hey, that's me.
Okay, yes, that really sound insane. But that's Homestuck fans for you.
And there truly are several armadas worth of ships. But I myself didn't notice any real wars yet. (Well, maybe I'm just ignorant, I don't know.)
Heh. I think Dirk/Jake is relatively safe because it's at least 50% canon. There are other ships that aren't so obvious and thus far less popular, or even crack pairings. The couples I ship are all reasonably popular, I think, so I don't really know much about that either.
π: 0 β©: 1
I pretty much had to suffer in wtf land until I got to the summary. Then everything became way more clear. A friend of mine that I got hooked on DirkJake without her actually knowing Homestuck (lol aesthetically pleasing is somehow enough (I should know, seeing as how DeanCastiel but I've never seen Supernatural(I should stop parenthesizing (that's a word!) in parenthesis (Argh!)))) wanted to read it, so I'll probably tell her to start at the beginning until she gets bored, then just skip to the summary and she can click the related links to find out more. It just makes more sense that way and is way less pain ridden. Granted you miss some stuff, but you'll miss lots of things when you're in wtf land. I know I did.
All I've seen are the shipping Olympics because of a friend who's really into it. But I have no idea what is is besides the name.
And I'd say it's like 75% canon barring death. Seeing as Jake's all like ohokay. Then again, Homestuck and death? Hussie killed himself for Chrissakes. D: I wouldn't super mind JaneJake but they're so similar looking. And factoring in the general tendency of Homestuck I'd give them maybe 15% atm. Ish. It depends on what happens next.
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah, well, I think every Homestuck reader is a regular visitor of wtf land. (I know I am.) I got pretty confused a few times because I stopped reading all of the chatlogs when I got to bored, thus missing some things and having no clue what's going on. But I had the ambition to at lest get to the part where the trolls are introduced so, yeah, I suffered through my endless confusion and here I am now, totally addicted.
Pff, yeah, who cares for the story, if two guys are hot we ship them! XD (I've actually seen Supernatural by the way and I ship DeanCas too.) (And parenthesizing (I love this word!) is fun.)
Yeah, I think you should tell your friend to do it like this. Espceially when she's reading because of DirkJake.
Now that I think about it, I too have a friend who doesn't know Homestuck but who I've kinda talked into doing DirkJake cosplay with me. (I'll probably make her read the DirkJake parts though, just so she knows what she's getting herself into.)
Yeah, I've heard of them too but I don't really know any specifics either.
Well, yeah, it seems chances are good for DirkJake at the moment since Jane's out of the way. I have to say I was honestly surprised when I read the chatlog between Jake and Jane because I really wasn't expecting this. I always thought that (if there's romance) Jane and Jake would end up together and poor Dirk would be the one left heartbroken. Now that Jake' admitted to being okay with dating Dirk though, everything's open. On the other hand there's young Mindfand (or whoever she is), who's like the girl of Jake's dreams, so I don't really have high hopes for a canon happy ending for DirkJake. Probably Hussie will just kill them all off anyway. And if he doesn't he'll probably do something totally random and unexpected just to freak out the readers because that seems to be his ultimate goal, if you ask me.
π: 0 β©: 1
The chatlogs are so important. x__x I skim them usually, just to check if they're goofing off or actually talking about plot. Also, troll typing quirks give me headaches sometimes, especially Vriska's. Chill with the 8s, woman. D:
And Idk, I just really like the dynamic, what I've seen of the dynamic of the two. I should probably watch it. Which is more suffering so should be saved for the summer. Or so I hear.
You know I always read that as Mindfag? It's kind of dumb. Not even funny for the fifty first time. Also the younger version that Jake sees is dead, so there goes that. And I'm actually kind of rooting for Jane because she is just that cute, I'm sorry. Buuuut if Roxy then I'm pretty content with the way things are.
And Idk. In his FAQ for one of the stories he was asked why is _____ comic so long and he answered because that's how long it took to tell the story. So maybe he does actually have a plan for this stuff. And he hasn't been killing off the kids as permanently as the trolls soooo there's hope yet? I mean, I'd rather it not actually turn into so hidey ho romance story and rather it end in a big boss battle against Lord English which chances are it will and after that there can be some shmoop. Implied shmoop if you will. So maaaybe their chances aren't that bad.
Yeah. Shit's complicated.
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah... But sometimes they're just so long and urgh. Though I have to say that I usually enjoy the Aplha kids' chatlogs very much.
Typing quirks are kinda funny but also pretty exhasuting, yes. (Especially if you want to use them forsome reason or another and you have the world's worst memory, like me. I always have to look up the quirks in the Homestuck wiki.)
I haven't really watched the latest episodes to be honest. But I've always loved Dean and Cas is just so adorably awkward sometimes... And yes, I admit it, I kinda dig the whole guardian angel/protΓ©gΓ© shtick.
Pff, Mindfag, okay. (Now I'll probably read it like this too.) I'm curious about the Alpha trolls/ancestors anyway. What happened to them? I guess I'll have to wait fot Act 7 to know.
I'm actually not that big of a fan of Jane. I mean, I love all the Alpha kids but compared to the others she's kinda my least favourite. Though I couldn't help but feel sorry for her when she screwed up her chance with Jake (for now). And I greatly enjoy the Jane/Roxy dynamic, so I don't know... I just want them all to be happy!
Oh, I do think he has a plan! And you're right, he probably won't kill off all the kids (at least not permanetely). And I don't believe that there will be too great a focus on the romance, I mean, that's not what Homestuck is about, right? But a little shmoop at the end would be appreciated, yes. (Maybe even of the Jake/Dirk kind, who knows?)
Shit's always complicated.
π: 0 β©: 1
Skimming. Skimming is always the answer I say.
And the Homestuck wiki is the best. Also, most of what happened to the ancestors was already described, whether that was what happened to the Alpha trolls or not remains to be seen. Uuuuh, they all died at some point or not except Condesce. And well, we have no idea what happened to the Grand Highblood or Darkleer, at least that's what I see on the wiki. But yeah, the Alpha verse seems to be like ten times more interesting than the Beta verse. I can't wait.
Jane is kind of adorable though. Even if she's basically fem John. But to rank them, I would say she is my last favorite out of all of them. but stillll. And I like her role with the whole skeptic pov, as opposed to just kind of going along with all of this like the Betas did. Shit's getting personal. And yes. As long as everyone is happy. I'll just assume there will be JakeDirk shmoop because I can and the end is no where nigh.
π: 0 β©: 1
Defintely. I wouldn't know what was going on half the time without it.
Of course we already know about the ancestors and their respective stories but since we're in the Alpha universe now who knows what's going on. Also the question remains why they're already dead. (Or at lest some of them, I don't know.)
I wouldn't exactely say the Alpha timeline is "more interesting". I mean, yes, it kind of is but I think that's only possible because there already is the Beta timeline, if you know what I mean.
Yeah, Jane and John are very similar, probably the most smiliar out of all the Alpha/Beta kid pairs. It's kind of funny actually because out of the Beta kids John's my favourite while Jane is my least favourite from the Alpha kids. But I like that she's sceptic too. All the Alpha kids are more mature than their Beta counterparts (which is only natural since they're older) and they seem to know what they're doing which is also kind of cool. I'm really curious about the great meet-up between Alpha and Beta kids though.
Yes, let's believe in happy endings for everyone. (Except Lord English maybe.) AND let's believe in JakeDirk shmoop, just because we can.
π: 0 β©: 1
It's obviously all going to end in a big battle against Lord English. And I was looking up Lil' Cal? How is he Lord English's ectobiological son what where did that come from.
Anyway, I didn't mean it's more interesting, because that would be inaccurate. The part that's really awesome is how everything is going haywire and universes are meshing together, and it's clearly breaking away from the game template, or the one we saw with the trolls/Betas. Well, the Betas broke the game but I think the Alpha kids are causing even more havoc to the system, which really appeals to me for some reason.
(Sure, let's not go in order now, okay)
I'm also kind of intrigued as to why all the trolls are suddenly dead, unless those are the ancestors who just look exactly the same? Then there's also the in between verse with Hussie and English and Sassfrass or whatever his name is, uh... Calmasis, right. And, oh, look what I found: "Andrew Hussie has explained on Formspring that the story represents Rose's subconscious mind retelling the story of the creation of the Universe through the Trolls' game of Sgrub - it contains 12 actually evil kids"
Learning new things every dayyyyyy...
Except what how I am so confused, so Calmasis wasn't real? So is that world like the imaginary world of Homestuck? SO LOST.
Let's just put this under "weird plot shit".
And focus on shmoop. Shmoop is good. Less brain breaky.
No, someone save me from the Wiki.
π: 0 β©: 1
Oh god, oh god, I think you broke me.
I mean, I knew that there had to be something up with Lil' Cal but Lord English's ectobiological son? That's news to me. (Though I have to admit that they do share a cartain kind of family resemblance: They're both weird and creepy looking.) Okay, okay, but what about Jake? Who's Jake then? I mean, why is his last name English? Urgh, I'm getting more and more confused...
Hm, yes, you're certainly right about that. It seems they're all finally getting down to business and in that respect the Alpha timeline is indeed "more interesting". Also I'm really looking forward to the Alpha kids' session in the game because, like you, I think that there will be havoc. Lots and lots of havoc. (I like that.)
Yeah, that's an interesting question too. We saw a lot of strange things during Roxy's sleeplevitatingthingie. Some of the dead trolls were God Tiers too and God Tiers usually can't die unless their death is heroic or just so that alone raises many more questsion about the potential death of the trolls if you ask me.
Jegus, now I'm even more confused that before. I just don't get it. I mean, I still like to entertain the hope that in the end it'll all make sense and I'll understand everything... yeah, probably not.
I'll just focus on the JakeDirk and everything's gonna be fine. (Shmoop ftw!)
π: 0 β©: 2
Hussie said Jake's last name has nothing to do with English. Hence the cessation of the angsty Jake-killing-everyone-fanarts. Oh, wait, no. Apparently, Doc Scratch is Lil' Cal's ectobiological son and English is his grandson... That makes even less sense.
"[Kanaya] makes him a new Felt-like outfit, but decides to put him away in her respiteblock when she too becomes unnerved by him. Black Queen then targeted him with a Appearifier along with the Magic Cue Ball to create Doc Scratch."
I think I missed that part. <__< Can't seem to find it, either. BUT IN ANY CASE.
Havoc is good. Very good. I feel like I should go read Hussie's other things, just to see what typically happens in his plot lines. Or just focus on shmoop, yes, good plan. Good plan.
π: 0 β©: 1
Okay, now I didn't really believe in Jake losing his marbles and going on a wild killing spree in the first place... Plus he somehow ends up calling himself Harley anyway so... (Maybe because he didn't want to be assiciated with Lord English? Who knows?)
Okay, whatever. You know what? I don't care. Lord English can be Hussie's and Doc Scratch's love child for all I care. I'll just read the damn comic and try to wrap my head around all the plot twists and unexpected developments.
Oh, wait, yes, I remeber that part... I think. God, my head hurts...
I think I'll go think about shmoop now to nurse my headache. Sshhh, sshhh, only schmoop now...
π: 0 β©: 1
Yes. Shmooooooop. Think about it. Think about the shmoop. It's good for the soul. Including as soon as I see something angsty, I draw something retarded and cheerful instead. Even if it was Brobot angst. Dirk, bby. ;__;
π: 0 β©: 1
I'm thinking about the shmoop. All the shmoop. I feel better now.
But oh, don't remind me of the Brobot angst. Why, Brobot, why? (Because Dirk needed you to sacrifice yourself in order for his elaborate wooing of one Jake English to work, that's why.)
π: 0 β©: 1
I say.... BrobotARJakeDirk. 8| Mostly because Dirkbby;_;. They can all take turns being Dirk for all I care. Happy endings for everyone!
Dammit, I hate how fandoms influence me into pairings. /knee deep in fanartsjesus
π: 0 β©: 1
Well, I'm looking forward to more fanart from you so I'm not complaining there. ^_^
But yeah, happy endings all around, that would be nice. (Too late for Brobot though. Oh Brobot... (Just watched Pricne of Hope: Rise up again. One word: Epic! (Though it probably shouldn't be so fun watching Jake get beat up by Brobot. Uh...)) (And what was that about parenthesizing again?))
π: 0 β©: 1
If I can ever get my shit together. Went browsing for some fanfic though. Why can there not be any good fanfic. Why must they be new. :c (And because it's like three minutes of Dirk being badass in several ways at once. And because Jake looks more like he's being tickled than actually punched. Which is kind of adorable.)
And I do have a bit more fanart, it's mostly on my Tumblr, along with a couple WIP shots. Because WHY did I decide lineless painting was a good idea, bah.
Go sleep. xD
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah, right? I mean, there's lots of good HS fanfiction out there but I've yet to find a Dirk/Jake one that I'm really getting into.
(Probably. Dirk being badass is always a good thing. And the "fisticuffs" really look more like a tickle fight than aynthing else.)
Okay then. I'm really not one for lineless art myself. I like my lines. But I'm pretty sure you'll figure something out and it'll look great. See, that's how much trust I have in you. XD
(Went to sleep. Good thing too because I was strating to scare myself with all the mad giggling at random shit.)
π: 0 β©: 1
I found a sort of really adorable pet shop one. It was cute. OOC. But so cute. But OOC. But adorableeeeee.
Trust, trust is good. .___. It'll only take me another forever to finish. I mean, I'm done with Jake and Dirk, now the girlsssss....
Ah, right, I've been meaning to ask but keep forgetting. What sort of -stuck are you planning? I'm curious.
π: 0 β©: 1
Ooh, I think I know this one. Jade's in it too, right, as Jake's christmas sweater knitting grandmom? It's cute, yeah.
Uh, yeah, I know what you mean. I promised to do a short John/Vriska comic thing anf I really want to finish it soon but I'm so slow. Why am I so slow? I know I'm not very good, so can't I at least be more efficient?
(Yay Alpha girls! Been meaning to draw them too. Somehow I slowly get the feeling that I like the Alpha kids more than the Beta ones... huh.)
Oh, it's a humastuck thing. Working title is Sinatrastuck and though it's kinda stupid I'll probably keep calling it that, I don't know. The idea is to use a Sinatra song as theme and title of every chapter. Originally, the main focus was on the relationship between Eridan (who's a big Sinatra fan), Sollux and Feferi but somehow other haracters kept worming their way in so now there are a whole bunch of different plot lines.
But basically it's just all of my favourite characters and pairings in one universe. XD (Just because I can.)
I'll probably never realize it though because 1) it's a bit stupid, 2) who'd even want to read that? and 3) I'm a lazy bitch.
π: 0 β©: 1
Yes. That one. And kittens and Christmas and fluffy dog beds.
I don't have the feeling that I may like them better than the Betas. I do. xD I am kind of starting to like them because of the Alphas though, especially Dave. xD And now I kind of ship DaveTerezi and wow, I think I need to reread all of it. Or I guess I can wait until there's more about the Betas, like in this intermission.
Humanstuck, I'm guessing. And, ff, yeah, characters tend to do that. I kind of want to make a stuck, but waaay too much effort and waaaay to much material has been gobbled up already. Maybe one day. Is it stupid? Not if you make an awesome plot, idk, I don't know all the Sinatra songs off the top of my head. And yes, well, so is everyone else.
π: 0 β©: 1
Well, kittens are always a good thing. :3 And I have to admit, as much as I enjoy badass!Dirk, I kinda have a soft spot for awkward!Dirk too, so that's another reason I found it cute.
I think I just like the Alpha kids better because I like each of them individually. With the Beta kids it's different because I'm not too great a fan of Jade and sometimes even Dave annoys me a little bit. (Most Homestuck fans would probably hit me for that one.)
I'm not that into DaveTerezi, but I think they would make a badass couple. (In that case I'd feel bad for KK though.)
True. Another reason why I'll probably never realize Sinatrastuck. And I don't know if it's stupid but... It's really hard to write an awesome plot, as you put it, that can in a way live up to the (even more awesome) orginal. Also I'm not a native speaker so my English's not that great which in itself kinda prevents me from being as witty as I'd like to be. (Not that I'm all that witty when I'm speaking my own language but you get my drift.)
Ugh, whatever. I don't wanna think about potential -stucks anymore.
π: 0 β©: 1
That was more stick-up-his-ass-Dirk but those are fun, too. Also, it's not like you can't have badass!awkward!Dirk. Because you totally can. And pfft, no way, all the Beta's annoy me. Maybe not Rose. She is more cognizant. And less prone to do stupid shit. And KK is like the fandom bicycle, I'm pretty sure he'll be quite fine. Honestly, he has Gamzee (well, kind of, the guy's a little insane (a wee bit)), Sollux (who's dead, but shoosh), John (who is a derp but a kind of adorable derp), Jade (I guess), Nepeta's also dead, uuuuhhh.... Kanaya as moirail. Yeah, okay, everyone else is dead.
And uuuh you can always get someone to write it? Pair up with a good writer and don't let go and then all will be well? xD
π: 0 β©: 1
Honestly? I'm not too picky. I like all the Dirks. ^_^
(Btw, so you know this one? [link] It has awkward!Dirk, jock!Jake and locker room makeouts.)
Yeah, well, the Betas can be pretty annoying... But I don't know, I'll always have a soft spot for John. And I really like Rose as a character.
Yeah, KK's gonne get over it. Btw, I really loved the whole "you want her in all of you quadrants" thing becasue of the refrence to the whole Sufferer-Disciple relationship. (And because I have this headcanon that KK's the only troll who can sorta understand human romance, or subconciously maybe even the one who created it. (The humans shate his blood color after all.))
Funny fact: The fandom seems to love Gamzee but for me he's one of my least favourite trolls. I don't know, I just think he's pretty weird.
I always thought Kanaya <> Karkat would be nice, but yeah, I guess that's not an issue anymore. (Gamzee <> Karkat is okay too. As longs as Gamzee doesn't go on a killing spree again...)
Yeah, I thought about that too. Problem is, where do I find somebody like that? Yeah, well, it doesn't matter. There's lots of other stuff I want to draw and it wouldn't be the first time an idea of mine went unrealized. (Like I already mentioned: Lazy bitch.)
π: 0 β©: 1
Nope but let me just... read it now. Aboooo that's adorable. I wish there was moreeeee.
But yeah. John is dumb but adorable, now that he's on God Tier and not kind of useless. And, ooooh, that's an interesting theory with the blood color and the human romance. That's cool. And, I'm a Capricorn so I am biased towards Gamzee. We both are laid back yet like to go on killing sprees of fictional characters. Idk about the fandom. xD That's all me. I googled him before I was even into Homestuck at all or knew anything about it. Then there was that awkward realization that I am Dirk without all of the awesome to make up for his underhanded trying-to-change-people-passive-aggressively business. Whoops. Now I just gotta learn some sword skills and get some shades and a little/older bro. Clearly, if I like a character, they're probably like me a bit.
And, uhm, the kink meme is a good place to start. xDD Unfortunately. I'm actually surprised at the amount of people who are cool with talking to other random people.
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah, me too. (Yes, I admit it, I've got a thing for High School AUs. Sue me.)
I also have a thing for adorable idiots. That's probably why I like John so much. :3
Also he and Karkat were the ones who got me into Homestuck, so there'll always be a cpecial place in my heart for those two.
Well, I'm a Libra and I like Terezi okay I guess but she's not my favourite or anything.
Okay, now I feel like I should probably watch out for any passive-aggressiveness. XD
I don't really now why I like the characters I like. I mean, it seems I've got a thing for adorable nerds who are also a bit dumb, cynical teenage girls with a tendency to psychoanalyze anthing that moves, permanently angry and foul-mouthed alien boys, arrogant, needy hipster assholes with fins, manipulative and totally ironic cool kids, ... I don't think I'm any of those things (except maybe a nerd and sometimes a bit cynical), so it's probably not the similarities.
Hm, yes, I could probably try that. (Looking for a co-writer at the kink meme - god, that sound bad.) XD
I think the main problem here is that I'm actually not that good with "talking to other random people", as you put it. I don't know, I guess I'm just not that extroverted or something.
π: 0 β©: 1
Karkat is my bby for no reason though. He is just so... angry. So angry. I just want to give him a hug. I think everyone does. And yeah, Gamzee isn't my favorite, but soft spot I have. But yeah, honestly, it's terrible. I pester people to get jobs and stop drinking so much water and to chill and not take things so personally and grow up and sometimes I feel like I should shoosh forever. v__v
But yeah, I tend to like characters who sound like they can carry an intelligible and mature conversation. I guess. Also personalities. I kind of like fan!Eridan though, he's kind of adorable.
And, yeah, well. xD You're talking to me, aren't you? xD
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah, you're right, I think everybody wants to give Karkat a big hug (and a good shooshpap) just so he can stop being an angry little bastard for a moment.
Wow, okay. I'll try not to get on your bad side then. ^_^ (And don't we all sometimes feel like we should shoosh forever?)
I tend to like the more mature characters too, like Rose and Dirk and Kanaya. But I also have a soft spot for goofballs and nerds, like John.
I don't even know why I like Eridan. He's kind of (kind of? definitely!) a tool. Fan!Eridan is cute though. And I'd like to think that deep (deeeeeep) down Eridan's a good guy. Sorta. Maybe.
That's true. X3 I recently made a friend on another website too, so I feel kinda hypocritical saying that I'm not good at talking to strangers, but well, normally I'm not. You're kind of an exception. XD

Yeah, I try to stfu, but I mean well. ;__; Maybe I should invest in a sword and some robot parts. .__.
And yeah, he's a bit of a tool. xD So I guess you can't help but feel sorry for him? Idk. And he tries to ironically believe in magic. Or ironically disbelieve except not really. Idk, he's really popular for no reason. I'm pretty sure there was an Eridan in that group of cosplayers moving into our Dorms. And I think a Karkat. I think. I still can't look at Homestuck cosplay and not see at as stupid just because of that incident. e___e
Yay exceptions! It's easier to talk to people on the internet where you don't have to figure out where to put the rest of your body and where to look and things. I think, at least.

Well, as long as you mean well I think it's not that bad. And at least you know that you're doing it, that's always a good thing. (I still think you should get a sword and robot parts though.) X3
I think the reason I like Eridan is because he's so pitiable. Yes, he may be an arrogant asshole and everything but all he really wants is somebody to love him and I get that. Also the first scene he's actually in is the whole breakup scene with Fef. How can you not pity the poor sucker after that? And the whole magic thing is also kinda tragic because it's obvious that he wants to believe but at the same time he doesn't want to look like a fool for having such childish notions, so he tries to rationalize it. And then there's his title as Prince of Hope... (I think I could go on forever.)
The point is Eridan's pretty pitiable and I think that's the reason for his popularity. (You could also say the fandom's flushed for Eridan.) :-P
I think Homestuck cosplay's funny. I wouldn't want to wear the stuff while moving into my dorm though, that's for sure.
Yeah, it kind of is easier. It's also nice because you get to talk to people who share your interests. I for example don't really have friends irl who are into Homestuck or other comics like I am. So the Internet offers the only opportunity for me to live out my fangirl nature. XD

Also apparently move 400 years into the future wtfff mind blown, I was not expecting this. @___@
Yeah, haha, flushed is a good word. Pity pity, poor thing. Yeah, the whole break up scene kind of made me sad, because there was totally no reason for it cause they were in <3 and it was mutual and then Feferi was like nawh, never mind. And Prince of hope, if we go off of uu's description would be the destroyer of hope. Hence blowing up the pointy sphere thing. Egg. That Kanaya had. I don't remember what it was called.
It's just. No. Why would you do that. I understand coming from a convention but they weren't it was like, specially applied for dorm moving in day. Ugh. The attention seeking it's terrible. e__e
And pfft, I feel like I get too fangirly and annoying irl so I tend to not say much fandomwise even though I know at least two people who are into Homestuck. Cause I can go on for hours, but it's kind of like rehashing, like what we're doing. xD

Yeah, me neither. v_v It explains a lot though.
The break up scene is really sad. Even more so because just before there's this whole long-winded explanation about quadrants and troll romance and Fef and Eridan are portrayed as the perfect couple with the whole "made for each other" shtick... And then suddenly, bam, "oh no I'm breaking up with you, sorry". (That's probably also the reason why I've never really warmed up to Feferi.)
Yeah, UU's explanation was really illuminative in that respect. "Destroyer of Hope" is definitely more fitting too. (Which in itself is also kinda sad.) And I have no idea what Kanaya's egg thingie is called either. Something with the word "mother" in it, I think.
It's pretty ridiculous, yes. And I can't imagine that it's comfortable either, I mean, especially if you're cosplaying a troll. The grey makeup alone...
Uh, yeah, I can get pretty fangirly too, I guess. (Big surprise there.) XD It's probably bordering on annoying sometimes. But like I said, I normally don't have people who I can talk with about stuff like that. So I probably get a little over-enthusiastic when the opportunity arises. X3

Whoops, school started. xD Time where have you goneeeeee?
But yeah. I guess it was to avoid being predictable? We all know Hussie hates that. The break up. And the way the titles correspond to what they do is kind of really cool, I think.
π: 0 β©: 1
I could make some dumb Hero of Time joke now... Nah, better not. XD
Yeah, he's unpredictable alright. But somehow it all makes sense when you think about it and that's what I really admire about Hussie and his storytelling.
I like the titles thing too. I also found UU's explanations very interesting because until then the titles didn't really seem to have too much meaning but now you see it's all well-thought.out.

Waste of Space. xD An apt title for everyone I think.
I know, it's crazy! Like blah blah, Seer of Light, magical super powers OH WAIT. 
And awhh, you aren't forever alone. xD I'm SuRe ThErE aRe PlEnTy Of PeOpLe WhO wOuLd CoNsIdEr ThEmSeLvEs YoUr FrIeNd, MoThErFuCkEr. :0)
Ohmygodthat was annoying.
π: 0 β©: 1
Oh my god, that's mean. (And yes, I just LOL'd pretty damn hard right here.) XD
Right? Right? That's basically how Homestuck works. One moment you're all like "oh, four strange kids playing some kind of freaky computer game, that's nice" and then, BAM, "oh, four strange kids playing some kind of freaky computer game, THISISAMAZINGIWANTMORENOW!" X3
pff, yeah, you're right. i mean, i'm awwesome, wwho wwouldn't wwant to be my friend? right, guys? ...guys?
...uh, guys?
Oh my cod, this is stupid. Stopping now. XD

I think that's his title, though I might be wrong. He does have the space symbol on his shirt.
After you get past all the pain and confusion of act onoe, pretty much, yeah. xD
Hey, all you have to do is double your ws and make fish puns. Typing like Gamzee hurts .:C
