Rose: goes grimdark, loses language skills (isolates from other people), tries to kill bec noir, gets killed. (inverted later when she tells her mother (roxy) she loves her as she herself dies?) (x)
John: …..no clear reaction….?
Jade: almost entirely unacknowledged on the page, to the point of literally acting out pretend arguments with her grandpa’s stuffed corpse. her negative emotions seem only allowed to exist in her altered states: jadesprite (sadness) and grimbark!jade (anger)
Dave: goes very quiet and closed off. indication that he sits silently for a while. tries to break bro’s sword (like he breaks his own swords) but fails (flips off the handle). symbolically inverted later when he decapitates alpha!dirk, slicing the unbreakable katana in half while his own sword stays unbroken.
yeah this originally started as a thesis on ‘john is not ok’
once you put your homestuck goggles on they kind of weld themselves to your face
it could be like 20 yrs since youve read homestuck but all the zodiacs are still going to have a designated color in your mind and if anyone ever says ‘were doing this’ u kno ur gonna say/think ‘were making this happen’ bc once ur homestuck trash youre trash4lyfe
watch me im gonna be quadrant shipping media in the 23rd century when the fandom discourse is about whether uploaded consciousnesses are still allowed to tell stories about meat people
i’ve been seeing a lot of homestuck quotes posts flying around since yesterday but most of them have consisted of just dave and karkat quotes which
yes, makes sense bc they’re both pretty quotable but have you considered that the female characters are also really funny and insanely quotable because
-back when grif was a sergeant still he promoted simmons and called him a hero for deactivating the firewall so he could look at porn on the bases only computer
-after a debriefing with a unsc officer and she left the room tucker saw there was a computer there and also immediately went to go watch porn. there are more porn mentions in this book than i am comfortable with
-donut was def planning on flirting his way to the top with sarge in the hopes of getting a promotion. this is very explicitly mentioned.
-o’malley has terrible handwriting and he kept a journal where he wrote down his evil plans with doc. when he wrote that he was going to start selling cookies door-to-door and pocket the cash instead of donating it he just drew a frowny face. just “:(” . he was so sad
-right before the reds and blues arrived kimball gave a speech and then served all the rebels ice cream. bitters deduced that palomo had probably never actually had ice cream since when he got brain freeze he just started screaming on the floor. kimball actually laughed
-church met/remembered meeting tex first when some asshole was beating him up cause he made a snide remark and she fucking decked him in the face and he was sitting there on the floor bleeding looking at this woman who just knocked some other guy out like “oh fuck i want this woman to be my wife”
-before blood gulch grif lived on a doomed colony in which all the other people but him were wiped out and it’s played up as a joke because everyone just thought he was dead but he was just sleeping and so he was the only survivor but fuck man thats like a double tragic backstory
-during his time at blood gulch simmons had written a text adventure game with little to no actual interactivity in which you press enter to progress to the next event.
-where did you think he got the idea.
-where did you think private Richard Simmons, a known nerd, got the idea for a humorous story modelled to resemble a text-based adventure game. where did you think he got the idea. where do you think he got the idea.
honestly is there anything more iconically rose lalondian than her in act 1 being all like. Wow John why is there a cake in the toilet, tut tut, ridiculous.
