The smuppet as a whole are phallic, not just the nose as previously thought by myself.

The rump = testicles

The body = the shaft

The head = the head of a penis

And the nose could be considered as a drop of semen. Yes, those puppets are actually plush dicks with limbs and eyes.

Personally, I don't think Hussie needs to bring it up again.
That conversation and the flash showing us Karkat and Nepeta together is enough. Fans are allowed to draw their own conclusion, but I don't think Hussie needs to spell every minor thing out for us. Especially not when we got such heavy foreshadowing.

Speaking of nothing, re-reading that conversation made me realize how sad Jasper's fate really was. The fact that he sits in Roxy's window waiting in vain for Rose to return is just heartbreakingly sad. :(
>> No. 60519
>>60513
As much as some people would like to see more Dreambubble antics, it seems the point is pretty much for Hussie to either get some plot out of have some dead characters show up for a moment to prove their still exist so hussie has a convenient way to keep non-contributors out of the story for long.

Or something.

>> No. 63751
It's less intuitive than most of the other classes, yea. I think bards are supposed to be less literal bards and more along the lines of shamans or druids, minus the religious aspect. The prince commands his element to destroy or be destroyed , as fitting of a class named after a type of leader; the bard summons his aspect or opens its defenses to destruction, but probably cannot control its actions once summoned or destroy it with his own hands. Judging from gamzee's actions durring the battle with the Black King and in Horrorstuck, there might be a possesion-by-aspect or "allowing the aspect to act through the self" element to bardhood too.

The choice for the universe to be represented by a frog specifically, however, seems to be an arbitrary choice not based on any existing mythology.

The closest we can get, that I know of, is the Egyptians who revered frogs as symbols of fertility and life and had a frog-headed god called Heqet. (The Greeks later stole her away for their own pantheon and named their version of her Hecate if that name rings any bells.) I think it's just as likely that it's a coincidence, though, and she was not a central figure of world creation like the frogs in Homestuck's mythos anyway. He might have just picked them as a symbol because frogs are boss, which I think is a perfectly valid reason to pick anything.

Semi-aquatic animals in general seem to be related to "holiness" of a sort in Homestuck. Not just the universe frog, but also the consorts (even Jade's--iguanas are typically terrestrial but hers look like marine iguanas) and the trolls. The highest ranks on the hemospectrum, the ones "closest to god," are the seadwellers.

This particular frog has Kanaya's blood colour.

It might be calling back to Lovecraft where the highest Gods are all sea dwellers and their worshipers take on fish like qualities.

On a more navel-gazey level the sea is source of all life, the birthplace of the most basic consciousness that we still carry around in our Reptile mind. It could signify being close to the source of all life, ie the frog.
