Hey look someone finally took their responsibility and made a new one

Neperi?
Fefeta?

That is the most girly-ass sprite I have ever seen.

>>70187
Nepfef or Fefnep, I would think.

>>70191
Gog no, that's awful.

>>70194
It fits the precedent. Tavrisprite and Erisolsprit both used the first three letters of their namesakes, and none of the last.

Also, Nepfef is incredibly fun to say, so bite me.

I'm going with Neferi

>>70195
Fefeta is easily the most fun to say.

Jane has the patience of a saint, my word

Im not reading that

ooohhhhh shit

jake's sprite has had to listen to 5 months' worth of this shit

Oh, hey, wow. I hadn't even noticed the Alpha version of the Mayor in that picture until now!

JAKE WHY ARE YOU SO TERRIBLE

I wonder if it's just a Hope thing to be really awful and shitty at relationships because holy fucking cow, Jake, even Eridan is literally shaking his head at you right now

Oh man, I'm going to love this.

o janey

janey jaeny janey

I'm glad Hussie is finally facing the reality of the consequences of teenagers being utter shit to each other.

I mean, if I'd had to put up with a fraction of the shit the pre-Scratch kids pulled on each other I'd have killed the shit out of them with little delay.

>Oh hey, I'm going to accidentally spawn a hyper-murderboss!
>Oh hey, I'm going to fall asleep during important moments!
>Oh hey, I'm a useless ass despite having fucking TIME POWERS!
>Oh hey, I'm an egotistical cunt with nihilistic views who is now apparently an alcoholic!

They're all fucking horrible people, really. I will shed no tears if Hussie perma-kills all of them.

>>70220
Jade didn't create the unkillable godNoir, Bec was the one who prototyped himself. John was attempting to prototype a doll when the fucking dog warped it into space and jumped into the sprite.

Also John fell asleep because of Vriska fuckery

>How could you possibly forget my childish insignificant birthday party after spending months in a barren, dead wasteland constantly surrounded by monsters that want to kill you at every turn! You meanie!! ;_;

>>70220
>>70222
This update sure is luring a lot of assholes from the woodwork

>>70223
Ain't that the truth.

>>70222
It should be fairly obvious that this is the proverbial straw (the camel back breaking one, not the man one) in what has been a very long and strong pattern of Jake being a complete and utter bubble head in all the worst ways to Jane.

Frankly I'm sad that Jane bottled this up for so long that it had to come out like this, but at the same time this is so much more entertaining. Which is the point, from a meta-narrative point of view, so I'm happy.

>>70223
True story bro.

does the Page class make you "one without x" or something because jesus christ Jake, how self absorbed can you even BE.

>>70226
"Hope" should be read here as "denial" or "delusions." Jake is living out a fantasy where people give a shit about all the stupid things he's saying.

Yess, Hussie brought up the house building aspect again. Maybe be will at some point find out its greater significance.

It's like Jane is in reverse friendzone!

Nobody's at fault here, Jake is just being a stupid teenager like teenagers tend to be. Same goes for Dirk and Jane, they're just being normal kids growing up and fucking up. That was the point of this whole bit.

GUYS GUYS GUYS GUYS

GUYS

...

GUYS!

WHERE'S SERENTY?

>>70231
also, janes dad

>>70231
She's going to burst out of the cake and give Jane a lapdance during the party.

that is a perfectly sensible reaction, actually
i wonder for how long jane has had to put up with this

>>70220
dat trollage

>>70230
Yeah, let's give them a break. It's hard being a kid and growing up. It's hard and nobody understands.

Anyone else notice that the two successful abomination sprites have half a horn set from each troll, while Tavriskasprite had horns that fused both trolls' horns? Maybe it's a hint to why s/he exploded while these two kept going on. Their fusions probably weren't as integrated.

>>70226
>Horus
>page of void
>one without void
>because he has everything filled
>he makes sure all his holes get filled
Congrats on getting me to think that.

>>70226
That fits well with Tavros if you like that theory that Breath = Indivuality.
Page of Breath, one without Individuality...

>>70240
I'm the guy who first said that over in the other thread. I dunno why I wrote individuality when I meant independence. That's what you get for staying up late. So... Tavros would be one without independence.

gotta go fix that post

why do people keep saying Dirk is being too clingy for wanting to be informed where one of the last human beings left alive is in a shithole full of monsters and death traps?

He even said outright its fine if Jake is just sick of him and needs to get away for a while.

>>70243
It's the needy tone of his text messages, not the fact that he's checking on him alone. Like if it had been "Hey, I haven't heard from you in a while. Are you okay?" That wouldn't be needy. But he gave this whole long, needy schpiel.

>that reaction

>Hope heroes

>explicitly and emphatically tell an extremely dense kid you don't like him

JAKE ENGLISH: DENSER THAN IRIDIUM

never doubt the huss, these updates have been golden

A distinct lack of carapace person in the latest panel, I'm guessing he made his way to a safe distance as soon as things started getting heated. Also interesting is this scared looking neon cloud guy.

>>70265
Whoops, forgot to upload the picture.

Oh my god this is beautiful

THIS IS DELICIOUS

>GT: If you told me you had the hots for dirk i would have backed off without another word.

This line had me cracking up. Jake you magnificent idiot.

There is something I don't get about one of the recent pages though.

>GT: What, like a year already since we entered? Holy moly, where does the time go.
GG: It's been more like five months.

If Jane entered the medium on her birthday, and it has been five months since then, how the fuck is it her birthday again? She shouldn't be 16 for another 7 months.

This is making me think there's some weird time shit in play, like they're moving through time at different speeds or something, which would also explain why days to Jake is weeks to Jane (assuming it isn't caused by Jake being inattentive, which is totally possible). Maybe it has something to do with which planet they are on? It could just be that some planets have shorter days than others.

>mfw jake is an idiot

its wonderful

>>70269
They entered on 11/11/11, not on Jane's birthday.

>dat table flippage

Methinks this is a long time coming. I wonder if Jake's been ignoring Roxy similarly?

Prospit kids

~The Esteemed Noble House of Stupid Faces and Anger Management Issues~

>>70200
Fefeta confirmed.

>383
Fefeta actually does not seem especially purrturbed by this turn of events.

>>70280

>>70281
What do you mean? She got so upset, she's mathematically wrong. 3833 is not less than 383.

>>70279
well, it's seems to be part of their quests
the prospit dreamers have to get in touch with the "darker" emotions and aspects/flaws of their personalities and either overcome or accept them
and the dersites need to learn to lighten up a bit, drop the facades and grow out of their self-loathing

Surprised people are so shocked and outraged that Jake doesn't believe Jane had a thing for him. He asked her point blank and she said no very clearly to him and showed no signs (in-chat) of not being truthful. So no shit he would assume it must be Dirk instead

People are forgetting that Jake is the same kid who took Dirk's "The world is destroyed by the Betty Crocker corporation working in conjunction with an alien witch and the Insane Clown Posse" story at face value, no questions asked.

>>70226
it seems to be analogous to the boy skylark class of FLARP mentioned in alterniabound. basically an heir except stronger, and doesnt inherit its powers until much later.

so it can be interpreted as one who must go without x i guess

OH!

Jane is overreacting because John also overreacted...

>>70292
The fact that something is in-character does not mean it's not still boneheaded. Jake's just consistently boneheaded.

Jake's derp + Jane's bottled up anger = John's flip out

>>70298
I wouldn't really say it's overreacting.
Jake really is being a tremendous dick, accidentally or no. Having to put up with five months of such self-absorbed idiocy would have me reacting similarly.

>>70302
but Jane could had avoided the whole problem just by being direct and clear before
if she should had tell him her true feelings, is not like she didn't know him enough to realize Jake pretty much have no ability to recognize her feeling on his own

>>70313
There's plenty of reasons why a teenager wouldn't do that though, including fear of rejection, and hoping that the person you like likes you back enough to come to the conclusion on their own so it isn't so one-sided.

>>70313
She's not free of blame, true, but at the same time it doesn't excuse Jake being a self-centered douchewizard.

>>70313
that's not the point
jake forgets her birthday, calls her up for the first time in several weeks and bothers her by babbling and babbling for god knows how long about his relationship troubles and completely irrelevant crap and is completely clueless not only as to how annoying and self-centred he actually is, but also of jane's feelings about what their relationship has become since they entered the game (ie he calls her every few weeks to ramble about dirk)

>Fefeta

Ha! Take that, people with poor naming sense! Concatenated names are best names.

That really was a sweet abscond by Jane.

poor roxy ;_;

Right overreaction wasn't quite the right word.

OUTBURST, yeah.

>I had a problem :(
Ahw, poor Rox.

But seriously girl? Maybe not the best time to ask wether it's ok to jump Jake's bones?

I actually feel really bad for Fefeta. She can't seem to talk? And is forced to have a stupid cat grin even when feeling terrible? Damn yo.

I like that "acrobatic fucking pirouette" is now, like, an official maneuver. That's really far from the point I'm aware

>>70335
She may seem all emotionally stable right now, but just you wait. Sooner or later, someone will bring up the subject of water and she'll have an emotional meltdown like you wouldn't believe.

Oh Roxy. :( You fucked up, but at least you tried to console her.

>>70335

Given that Roxy apparently knows about Fefeta's historical problems with dudes, I imagine she can talk and just is not for now for unclear reasons.

I like how Fefetasprite's job in this scene is to provide Jane and Roxy with a spritelog to have their conversation in.

>>70332
I think this is mostly how I feel in this situation, too. She just wants everyone to get the fuck along, is that so goddamn hard?

Well, this served a purpose. Now we've got four kids on four different planets who won't talk to each other. When the betas arrive, their first task will be to help their counterpart out.

>>70347
I kinda hope each kid helps a teen they aren't related to.

>>70332
>>70334
>>70339
>>70345
>Poor Roxy
I know that feel, Roxy.

>>70347
Man, I am SO ready for the beta kids and the surviving trolls to finally enter the Alpha. Even if all they manage to do is fuck things up WORSE than the beta kids already are (since it's entirely possible their coming with all their "live" planets or whatever will make this into an active session instead of a void one, which could make things more dangerous--plus they've got Bec Noir and the Peregrine Mendicant in tow and will almost certainly draw Lord English's attention to the Alpha on top of it), it'll be great to see how the Alpha kids react to all this insanity.

>>70348
I'm thinking they may work by personality flaws/chumhandles? While it'd be hilarious, I don't think, say, Dave could be a mentor to Jake. So...
Jane/Jade (GG, anger management), Roxy/Dave (TG, dropping the mask), Dirk/Rose (TT gotta-save-everyone syndrome) and Jake/John (GT being less derpy)?

gcat
where are you taking us next

So apparently Fefeta is usually a big chatterbox. She just didn't want to be a part of that conversation. Who can blame her?

Have we ever seen a sprite go to sleep? What will happen to Fefeta's ghost/dream/whatever self if they still exist?

>>70363
Well, Erisol, Tavris and Fefeta aren't exactly normal sprites. I mean, they are made from the bodies of dead players from another session who reside in the dreambubbles, so who even knows what's up with that. It's possible that they go to the dreambubbles and inhabit their own separate bodies for a while, since that's where they came from and that's where Tavros and Vriska returned to after splitting. But since ignoring their spritedom by staying permanently asleep apparently isn't a thing they do despite hating their existence, it's possible that they either go there in spriteform or feel some sort of urge to return to their player.

As for the other sprites, well, I don't think Nanna or Jaspers or Crabdad are capable of sleep. And even if they are, they wouldn't go to the dreambubbles. Neither would Davesprite, since he wasn't dead upon being prototyped. Jadesprite likely would, though, unless dreamselves have special rules.

well FUCK

Fefeta is a catfish...

So is this the first time we have an actual damsel-in-distress in this comic?

>>70367
Fefeta is a catfish and the Condesce is a fish with a (g)cat, eh.

So, what's gonna happen to Rox? Kidnapping? Mind control? 3x2stabbed? Wake up a while later and resume life?

NOOOO ROXY NOOOOOOOOOOO

THIS FISH BITCH

I am scared for what will happen now. She's been dormant for this long for a reason. This must mean she's ready to open her industrial sized can of Behemoth Leavings and upend it into the Large Whirling Device.

This is part of why I don't like Meenah as much as everyone else seems to. At the base level she's a bitch with few redeeming qualities besides (for Meenah) being kinda funny while being a bitch and (for the Batter Witch) being a scary antagonist.

>>70375
I dunno. From how she interacted with Mituna and Cronus, Meenah didn't really seem like a complete bitch at heart to me. And while she did kill 12 people that one time, we shouldn't forget that she did it seconds before their inevitable, complete annihilation, and with the express purpose to spare them that.

As for HIC, yeah she's probably not gonna kill Roxy. Or even try to. If she wanted them dead, she could have done it literally months ago. This is gonna be more insidious.

>>70375
reapface

I don't care, man. I know the Condesce is a horrible monster whose crimes against sentient life are indescribable and all, but I can't help but admire her a bit because she's the motherfucking Condesce. Also, Karkat's respect for her helps a bit too. And there's Meenah too. She may have used her "friends" for her own ends without giving a damn about their well being, but it's quite clear she's feeling some remorse for it now that she realizes they didn't amount to much.

>>70375
>>70376
The big difference between Meenah and the Fishbitch is the society in which they were born/crash'd. Meenah grew up in a world where taking care of others is not only expected, but also more or less required, where the higher castes were supposed to look after those of lower standing. She's rebellious, violent, a bit of a jerk and would probably have razed it all had she been given the chance, but she's not a monster. The Condesce, on the other hand, grew up in a society of danger, callousness, violence and oppression, as a result of Scratch's machinations. It's true that she embraced her role as Empress fully and made it even worse than it originally was, but she's still not the same Meenah we know.

If you'd go back in time and grow up in a shitty ghetto, with no family except a dog, you'd be a completely different person. Or, you could be born into a wealthy, happy and luxurious household with a loving family and all the things you could want. Either way, that person would not be the same you as the one you know.

>>70375
Man, Meenah's fun because even though she FANCIES herself a villain, really she's kind of a dork and it's adorable and funny to watch her try so hard to be a badass.

>>70375
I don't think Meenah and HIC should be considered the same person, even if they are biologically. Just look at how different Aranea is from Mindfang.

Can anyone seriously see a teen Condesce beat boxing fishpun style? Hell no. Totally different backgrounds.

God the tumblr update tag is awful.
Roxy can't go god tier on LOPAN because she doesn't have a dreamself, GCAT's been shown to be manipulated by the Condesce before, and they already explained why she has those troll powers (as empress she had latent abilities for it all along, and just had the time to hone them).

>>70385
Actually, her current body is her dreamself. And we know via aradia, dave, and rose that people who only have their dreamself bodies left can ascend via Quest Crypt.

>>70385
>as empress she had latent abilities for it all along, and just had the time to hone them
Actually, no. She just did some genetic engineering.

>>70386
>>70387

The point is she couldn't go god tier on LOPAN, and the Condesce didn't get her troll powers from them being thrown in the sprites, which is what tumblr people are theorizing.

>>70379
While they wouldn't be the same person there would be some similiarities between the two people.

Personally I hope Jake breaks up with Dirk. I want to see it happen, because I hate Dirk. I don't think they are any good for each other either.

>>70393
>Personally I hope Jake breaks up with Dirk. I want to see it happen, because I hate Dirk.
Funny, I want the same thing because I hate Jake.

Well shit....

>>70393
>>70394
And I, as the third option, want to see them break up because Dirk is guaranteed to respond to emotional distress in some very weird ways.

Why exactly couldn't Roxy fly/float seeing that she's somewhat of her own dreamself now? She just dropped like a stone. Dave's and Rose's were able to fly when they went to carry on the Tumor/Green Sun mission.

I want Jake to realize he was just in a slump and still really likes Dirk

Then I want Jane to turn to Roxy for comfort because with society as we know it gone she doesn't care about the social stigma anymore

And then I want Roxy to suggest that as long as they're breaking old, irrelevant taboos maybs Dirk could talk Jake into maintaining an open relationship to stave off that Strider Fatigue every now and then

>>70398
I guess she must have been able to a certain extent, otherwise she'd just be red mush on the pavement right now.

Maybe it only works up to a certain height, so she was freefalling for a while and managed to not die by using the hover ability as a parachute. She still hit the ground hard, but it could have been much worse.

I want John and Dave to have to dress up as Dersites or Drones to rescue Roxy from a detention block and her to go "omg ur way 2 short for a archagent lol"

>>70399
ANDTHENTHEYALLFUCKED.jpg

Go on, Jane. Unleash that anger on Caliborn. He actually fucking deserves it.

No, I want Jake and Dirk to break up because they aren't right for one another, you can see this now.

wait. isn't Jane using the recipie modus?

In that case, is this something Dad had in his wallet?

WAS DAD IN LEAGUE WITH CALIBORN?

>>70405
probably his bing crosby laptop that he managed to stash just in time.

you know, like how he had in the pre-Scratch when John found it.

Huh, wonder what the douche of time wants?

Stop being accidentally adorable, you absurd little fucker.

If Cherub culture values assholery and hatred doesn't that mean that Caliborn is actually a sweet guy and Calliope was a gigantic bitch?

I didn't know whether to laugh or cry through that entire conversation.

Also, I've noticed that half of my reaction to updates is based on how I expect the fandom to react to them. The revelation of the pillow fight was especially frightening in this regard.

Caliborn managed to say love and friend a few times. Was that involuntary key mashing claim just bullshit?

>>70417
This is the same kid who said that his species doesn't /have/ a culture in A6I4, and who got told by hussie that he didn't know shit about his own species.

Caliborn's just a lying liar who lies through his pointy little green teeth.

>>70419
Well golly what do you think

jesus christ, all those towers and screens. And he's not even gotten to his own land yet.

he must've been there quite some time by now.

the

>>70432
update.

Why is the site down? Does anyone know?

>>70434
Yes.

>>70434
Because homestuck never actually existed. It was a mass hallucination, like candle cove.

Caliborn has so many christmas trees :3c

I'll just leave this here

>>70379
>>70381
>Meenah =/= Condesce
I never meant to imply I thought they were the same or should be treated like they have the same history at all. I was just using their similarities to point out why I 1) love to hate the Batter Witch and 2) am not so impressed with Meenah.

>>70380
>Meenah's fun because even though she FANCIES herself a villain
This is a good point and kinda makes me appreciate her character more. Even if she is a fishbitch.

>Latest update
Where do guys think Caliborn got the Karkat-like idea to try to make friends with Jane/the teens? And what convinced him to actually try it?
Not sure how much longer to courtesy spoiler these things.

>>70441
I didn't know that was a thing we did, apart from big flashes

The most possible outcome.

>>70433
Caliborn's drawing kinda reminds me of this.

You know, I appreciate the fact that Homestuck is funny and has great gags, I really do. But I wish it could,from time to time, not turn EVERYTHING into a joke.
Lord English, what was once the only ''serious business character'', by the virtue of his non-presence in the story(while still remaining hugely intimidating) has been reduced to...Caliborn. The biggest bad in the series is literally ''retarded sexist karkat". LITERALLY retarded.
That said "JANE BITCH. I HAVE NEW ORDERS" is the funniest line in a while.

>>70443
I like it. Didn't the previous sessions have at least some semblance of player/enemy team up? It would be awesome if Roxy decided "Fuck the quest, I'm chilling with the boss for a while". it'd be a good parallel to Rose trying to go against the game design as well...I think

>>70443

>>70448
I understand where you're coming from but Homestuck just isn't that kind of story. There are serious moments, like Cascade, and while I like those I wouldn't want them to become too frequent. As for characters, they can be threatening and funny at the same time. Remember that before act 5.2 ended, Bec Noir showing up was usually a pretty big "oh shit" moment, but he was still funny at times. Claiborn may not be threatening right now, but that's not due to him being funny as much as it is due to him just not being a threat right now.

Let's wait til Caliborn starts wrecking shit and/or actually starts turning into Lord English before deciding how intimidating he is.

>>70449
>>70450
fuck...connection here is kind of twitchy. didn't realize I had already posted this. Terribly sorry.

Nice knowing you Dad.

>>70455
that guy's such a slacker
with regards to vital metabolic functions

He might not be dead, it would be very in-character of Caliborn to just be fucking with her.

I mean he's probably going to bite it again at some point but it might not be now.

>>70457
I bet he'll be dead before John enters the alpha session.
Just because it would be very disappointing for John.
And Hussie likes his characters to be sad.

Ha ha what a cutie pie! Such an adorable little misunderstood scamp!

>after all the shit Caliborn has done, calling Jane fat is what dumblr considers crossing the line into unforgivable heinous monster that you are a piece of shit for daring to like

I kind of doubt Dad is dead. For starters, as was already pointed out, Calliborn is prone to fucking with people. But for seconders, he never actually said he saw Dad die, he just said he saw him getting tortured/what have you by the prison people and that there's no way he could survive it with his weak, human constitution. Saying "There's no way he could survive" is pretty much a guarantee that the character in question is alive.

This is Dad we're talking about here. His previous incarnation threw a safe through a Dersite wall and beat the Hegemonic Brute into submission with ease. I truly doubt the "horrors" of Dersite prison have killed him.

Plus, the previous incarnation of the prison was run by Jack, who was almost certainly all about senseless brutality. This one will be under DD's thumb.

DD is a touch more subtle. He'd know Dad's useful alive.

>>70461
That's just the obvious thing Hussie wants us to think.

>>70465
Oh fuck it's like Layton logic
Since it looks obvious that Dad is still alive, then he should still be alive. That means it is absolutely not the case.
I'm betting Dad is dead but he actually wasn't the guy in the cell.

At first I thought, "Man, whoever runs Prospit sure is a pushover."

Then I thought, "Man, whoever runs Prospit sure is a shrewd genius who knows just the right buttons to push."

With all this teen drama going around, the carapaces really are a breath of fresh air.

well there goes my "DD is invisibly spying on the kids" theory.

And SS used to just doodle all over and not actually do his paperwork, didn't he?

>>70535
When he wasn't busy being pissed off against the queen.

This is going in such a wonderful direction

DD is the BEST member of the Midnight Crew. Fight me.

>>70577
you can't argue against fact

I am greatly pleased with these current turn of events.

I wonder who Dad is talking to.

Alpha Universe Fedorafreak, maybe?

>>70631
He's talking to alpha Dave and Rose, who were still alive when he entered the medium. He's telling them about their kids so they can prepare, thus filling the time loop.

...that's WV(?) in the cell, right?

>>70647
I figured it was some arbitrary Dersite. He has a similar build to other pawns, and it's likely he'd be on Skaia like his counterpart. Though it's not impossible he was arrested for deserting, I would think that'd actually get him executed before he would get the chance to put on a suit.

My first thought was that it was a cameo by Problem Sleuth.

>>70647
I like how DD has apparently imposed a strict formal dress code in place of the usual carapice garb in Jack's absence.

>>70682
Wow, called it.

Dad is the best.

>>70690
I agree that HATLIKER is probably CD, but my reasoning was just "CD is the type of character who would sit on his favorite hat, then freak out about it".

>>70719
He's also the kind of person who'd use a screenname like "HATLIKER".

Oh shit. The Condesce is not amused!

Her Imperious Condescension enters the room. All present Dersites bow, except for the Draconian Dignitary, the current second-in-command of the kingdom, who merely doffs his hat.

Dad Crocker does nothing.

Okay, so Dad's a celebrity on Derse and the Condense talks (types?) like a gangster. Par for the course for this comic.

Doubt it. We've seen that her power blacks out the whole session for trollian and equivalent, and we've also seen that the radio tower monitors still work.

Anyway this is probably a dream bubble isn't it. We haven't had a normal flashback since Hivebent. Might be a conversation with Calliope.

So how about that motherfucking wizard fanfic

Is this Hussie's wizard camp cancelled wip novel, the fanfic addition edition?

Yep.

Roxy has some odd ideas about narritive and character development.

Roxy and Dave, truly the literary geniuses of their time.

>>70765
I came in drunk as a skunk last night and could not for the life of me figure out what the fuck was going

Oh hey...

Bea is double in the comic now.

>>70775
Bea writing about Bea.

Beaception.

So I guess Roxy's most likely in a dream bubble, and Calliope's silence is disturbing.

Calliope underwent a class change from MUSE to MIME.

I have this feeling Caliborn's about to be all "HAA. HAA. HAA." soon, but silent dead Calliope is almost worse. ;_;

Wait. Wait. Oh Jesus. What if Roxy knows something key to finding Calliope, or at least to navigating the Furthest Ring to find her, given her Rogue of Void powers?

What if this is less a dream and more the Condesce poring through the mind of Roxy like a book? She has all the troll powers, after all, and part of the reason Vriska's never worked on John or Jade was the effort involved in cross-universal mind contact. The Condesce is not so limited.

So what do you guys think Roxy is looking at now?

>>70784
Horrorterror corpse?
L E?
The superweapon that Vriska and Tavros are looking for?

or most likely:
The meteor doing a flyby, so Rose, Roxy and Dave can FINALLY TALK

>>70784
Gamzee doing Gamzee things.

She sees "Calliope."

Skull girl has bright ass.

>>70789
HAHA FUCKIN CALLED IT

>>70791
AH AH AH!

CURRENTLY, IN A DREAM, Callie is Serenity.
We don't know for certain that Callie has ALWAYS been Serenty.

>>70746
I don't get what it stands for

>>70793
Her Imperious Condescension

>>70792
True, but I'd say there's a decent chance of it. It's the sort of thing Hussie would pull. He loves to find things from hundreds of strips ago that people forget about and make them suddenly relevant again. It'll make the most rabid fans go back and re-read the first strips with Serenity to see if there are any extra special clues to future revelations therein.

It's funny. Hussie says he plans relatively little about Homestuck, so I wonder if he goes back to old strips and reads them to work things in and create foreshadowing that was unintended, or if the things he DOES plan ahead of time are just the most innocuous and crazy things that he waits hundreds of pages to make relevant.

reminder that vriska was also serenity one time

like, that doesn't make any of these theories BUSTEDDDD but you should keep it in mind

It was said on Jane's planet that fireflies often represent a person's soul. Closeups of Serenity also show that her glow comes from a huge spiral like the ones seen on Calliope/Caliborn's cheeks. Also who immediately latched onto Roxy when team meteor met beta kids and Roxy for the first time? Serenity.

>TG: (ugh)
>TG: (my dream nerves are a wreck)
>TG: (hm i wonder if my dream house has any dream booze...)
>TG: (NO!)
>TG: (bad dream roxy)
>TG: (must not)
>TG: (fall off)
>TG: (THE DREAM WAGON!)

Roxy is the best kid.

What an Art Shift!

In before canon-kickstarter-fantrolls

dat spiral

Calliope's dream-space feels more dream-y than some of the bubbles! Muse powers, perchance?

I don't see Serenity in any of the panels after Roxy leaves the Sburb House. Looks like she's on her own for now.

Sometimes I forget how nice Homestuck can look, but the composition of that last panel was really, really nice.

"You can't keep offing fictional characters like that! it isn't responsible"

Hahahahahahahahaha


Oh, Hussie.

callie
uh
callie is that you

Maybe this bright spiral is the one inside Serenity.

i just realized roxy has a spiral in her hair

Why do I have a very bad feeling about this...

>>70814
And spirals in her ears. Sorry.

Huh.

...Cherub eyes go black when they die, then?

>>70820
Considering that lil Cal "takes" the likeness of their eyes, not a surprise.

You know, am I the only one who finds it a little sad that Callie can't face Roxy in her normal form? The poor girl really doesn't have much self confidence, does she?

>>70822
This.
The instant I saw her change her guise I had a split second of confusion before realizing/remembering:

UU: bUt i am oUt and oUt smitten with trolls and their history and ways.
UU: they have sUch amazing, coloUrfUl social dynamics that soUnd like so mUch fUn to be a part of.
UU: and they are so beaUtifUl.
UU: i wish i coUld be that pretty.
UU: UnfortUnately, i am not very attractive at all.

It's pretty sad to see this in a person, even one who's grown up without a ton of social interaction, negative or otherwise.
So yeah, Roxy will PROBABLY bring up the "you said you weren't a troll what gives" thing.

so, Muse English?

>>70824
If what Hussie said to Caliborn is true, then she's gonna be just as bad as LE in her own way.

>>70825
Ha Ha, that reminds me of Tavros asking Vriska about the final boss,
>uHH, IF THERE'S A GUY THAT'S THE FINAL BOSS, ARE YOU SURE THERE ISN'T ANOTHER BIGGER BOSS BEHIND HIM?

Fuckin' hilarious.

I guess this is a reference to the fact that since Garriott holds personal copyright to the name Lord British, they now have to create a new character, Lady British, for the Ultima games.
Or something like that.

>>70828
I kinda doubt that. What with Hussie never having played an Ultima game and all.

i bet the offshoot calliope is a full grown smokin hot skull babe

>>70831
I hope she grew up just as muscular as LE.

>>70831
>>70832

It said that Calmasis was both the anti-hero and angtagonist. I believe she may be close to her brother gaining his trust over and over. She may have done horrible things to do it.

If there's an offshoot timeline where Calliope won, then there's also a version Caliborn from it that lost, which could be interesting to see. Perhaps he's the real key to defeating LE, since he'd know his own weaknesses, while Calliope has to handle her alternate self? Or maybe they need to work together to defeat themselves/each other.

>>70835
now now, grown up calliope might not be nice, but that doesn't automatically make her a villain. after all, if she was just as bad as caliborn (or even worse) we probably would have heard of her earlier

>>70828
Wouldn't her name be more like Muse [Whatever] because she's a muse and not a lord?
Muse British....

>>70836
She's a passive class, though, and it'd make sense for a muse to work behind the scenes. I'm not really sure how she'd end up being evil, I'm guessing it'd be more along the lines of sacrifices and risk-taking rather than outright rampaging, but even then it seems like she'd have to have had split of rather earlier. Also, I'm not saying it's the case at all, but it'd be pretty freaky if it turns out that spiral they're on was actually her cheek the whole time. Why did it take so long for you to find me, when you're already here?

Oh, and unrelatedly, all those things from the pre-scratch session was really making me think she'd end up seeing Rose, but I guess maybe she's just getting some subconscious memories of her past life, like the sufferer did.

>>70837
Muse Irish? Muse French? Muse other-histroic-opponent-of-Britan?

>>70838
An evil muse would be more like a puppet master, pulling the strings from behind the scenes. There sure are a lot of puppets in Homestuck...

>>70841
but what could she possibly hope to accomplish? i mean she killed caliborn herself, why would she help an alternate version of him rise to power and wreck reality?

Alt-Calliope is going to turn out to be Lil' Cal. I estimate the odds at about 80%.

>>70842
A world where forced niceness rules supreme? Kind of like how Beforus was under an empress Feferi, which had its own problems.

>>70836
Where could Alt-Timeline Calliope possibly hide? Is there a place right under LE where she could hide despite being from a doomed timeline? Is she only tangentially manipulative in an extremely passive way, so that she could gain the trust of her brother by doing the awful things he wants her to do? Is there a way she could hide her true identity until she is ready to fuck her brother from the alpha timeline over? Could she possibly be the anti-hero while her brother is the antagonist?

>>70843
Counterargument:
1) Li'l Cal is an ingredient in Doc Scratch, who hatches into Lord English. That doesn't seem consistent with the nature of a theoretical Calliope assertive enough to actually kill her brother (Lord English, barring a truly unexpected reveal) outright.
2) Li'l Cal's cheeks are the wrong color.

>>70853
It's a possible interpretation, but I don't like it. If Alt!Calliope went through all that trouble to kill Caliborn, why would she then turn around and willingly serve him as the instrument of his immortality?

>>70844
Well at least now we know where Harmonystuck came from.

>>70857
Fair points, I forgot that Lil' Cal got incorporated into Lord English.

...although come to think, if that happened it would make him unable to destroy that part of Calliope without destroying himself, which would seriously piss him off.

What is that? LE breaking through Calliope's special space?

>UU: then yoU all mUst die. one way or another. u_u
>TG: alright
>UU: alright?
>TG: yea
>TG: fuck it
>TG: lets do it

Yet more proof that Roxy is the best kid.

that red swirly stuff totally looks like a frog's tongue

and finally roxymomlog?

>UU: WHAT IS *SHE* DOING HERE???
do you have something against rose, callie

>>70871
Maybe she's just upset that ANYONE was able to find her. Because it could mean that Caliborn will be able to, too.

>>70872
then why the emphasis

>>70871
>>70873
I assume it has more to do with Rose's light trait than Rose herself. It might counteract the void or something.

Wouldn't be the first time a Light player left a trail for some big bad to follow.

>>70874
Well hopefully Roxy cancels out Rose enough for it to at least stay at the level of obscurity that it was without either of them. As well, if Rose is drunk right now, it could maybe weaken her powers like it did Roxy's.

Or maybe English is about to show up and start wrecking things.

>>70876
Hopefully, but I wouldn't depend on it. Rose is a fully realized, god-tier Sage of Light, and as far as we know Roxy hasn't even maxed out her Echeladder yet, and definitely hasn't come into her full powerset yet. If she can match Rose now, God Tier Roxy would be a fuckin' beast.

I wonder if Calliope objects to Rose because of her former association with the horrorterrors?

:D
:D
>:U

>>70881
Yes, it is charming how completely unconcerned the Lalondes are right now.

New Theory Time: Rose's drinking earlier was part of some sort of divination to locate Roxy.

Rose and Roxy are adorable.

>ASSUMING HE ISN'T ALREADY ON HIS WAY TO BLOW US ALL TO KINGDOM COME!!!

Calliope please, don't you realize that HE IS ALREADY THERE?!

It's 12/21/12, there is a happy reunion scene happening between the Lalondes, and we only received one page update. There is no way shit's not about to hit the fan any second.

There is still a huge crowd just ready and waiting to be ghost obliterated. ==> Let's see what they're doing.

Oh, Calliope.

Does this mean magic is real now?

i love you condesce

>>70891
Ha, who are you kidding, magic is fake as shit!

if you're curious, the troll/daedric text says "youre welcome"

>>70894
>>70892
At this point I don't know whether I like the Condesce or Meenah better, of the alternate selves.

Do you think she made the folder herself, complete with glitter and glue?

>>70897
she probably used some future tech to blingee-fy it
kind of like dave's SBAHJifier

The only thing that bother me is that this is hella inconsistent with that one time she contacted Dave to give him the Miracles video.

>>70899
It was pretty boastful and flashy of her to slip him a tip at all, especially at a time when her sphere of influence was so thin.
Anyways, she probably told a minion to do it.

Best character of Homestuck. Condesce x Roxy 5ever 2013

>>70901
I have never black-shipped anyone harder than I black-ship these two.


... You know, since she is a troll, it could be that this is how the Condesce actually views their relationship. That would explain the over-the-top effort she put into the file to make it scream "I made this special just for you!"

I also love how despite being, let's just say a hundred zillion years old, the Condesce still basically has the personality and attitude of a teenage girl. She's the girl equivalent of a manchild.

>>70903
Time flies when you're culling inferior alien species with that much swag.

Yo, just saying.

>>70902
Awwwww
...now I kind of want it to be one-sided
Roxy finds out and is all "...dude you know humans don't do stuff like that."
Condy is crushed
OMG I SHIP IT TOO

Fuck the fuck off, Hal. No one even likes you, and upon finding out you made an auto responder for yourself, I like you even less.

>>70907
i smell butthurt

>>70907
come on dude that fucking hilarious

Did Roxy just let a robot approximation of another robot approximation of Dirk know that Calliope is still around? A robot by happenstance named Hal?

.....ppppffff HAHAHAHAHHBAHAH!

Giving a robot real life is really not a good idea

But this shit has its own standards

I'm finding Arquiussprite pretty fucking obnoxious so far.

>>70915
I think Dirk is with you on that one.

At least he's stable (no pun intended). If the result of combining Equius and Hal went berserk, we'd be in for a whole mess of trouble.

>TG: no bullshit theres still no excusing ppl ignoring me!
>TG: I D not G A fuck WHAT magic bling im rockin or how voidey im being
>TG: u a holes are behaving straight up RUDE i dont need this shit
>TG: fuuuuuuuck AAAAAAAAAAALL YAAAAAAAAAAALL

:(

>>70920
Yeah, Roxy remains the best kid. She's actually doing shit, and keeping people apprised of the shit she's doing, and trying to pull everyone together, and everyone else is off playing at teenage bullshit.

Honestly, she's behaving more like a leader than Jane is at the moment. And yeah, I'll admit Jane's got a lot on her mind, but storywise it rather makes the reality of what's happening and the archetypes they're supposed to be in clash a bit. I wonder if that's going to be important later--like will Jane have to undergo some sort of explicit effort to be the leader she's supposed to be again, or something?

>>70921
Who knows. John was said to be the leader of the B1 session, but he actually did very little compared to Rose and Jade. But Jake, Dirk and Roxy are all but confirmed to die in the great battle against who knows whom, so I guess Jane will have to get a grip and do the Lifey thing/go god tier to save them.

oh, and a new thread would be nice once the next updoot hits

>>70922
I think Jane's development will be closer to Jade's than to John's. John and Jake are derpy and clueless guys who seem to be combat-oriented (John vs. Jack Noir, Jake vs. Lord English) but nonetheless are somewhat inspiring, while Jade and Jane both have gone through some actual tough shit but still end up saving the day (Jade saving their lands, Jane presumably resurrecting her friends). Likewise, Dirk and Rose were both extremely active but really had no idea what was going on, and both Dave and Roxy have spent a great deal of time trying to fix the others' shit.

>>70924
You are seriously reaching to fit into the theory you're trying to make. At least half of those are false or vaguely projected at best.

>uu: I SEE.
>uu: THEN YES. YOU ARE CORRECT.
>uu: THIS IS GOING TO BE GAY AS HELL.

>>70926
These two are adorable in the worst possible ways.

I cannot be the only person to think that Jake is gonna end up being Lord English, am I? Or some freaky combo of both Caliborn and Jake.

Lord prefix, Jake's last name, seen using a gun which is both of their weapons, the cherub icon that Jake always uses, them teaming up, etc

Oh god he really getting better at this
It even looks like he's imitating the jpeg artifacts

That one outstretched arm going toward the "camera", is that supposed to be his fanart of a selfie?

>>70930
he copied the picture that was on jake's ipod, but replaced dirk with himself

He also replaced Dirk's red mask and Jake's green helmet with Cal's head and a pumpkin respectively hmmmmm

So then Caliborn basically rules over paradox space, rather than being subordinated to it. Complete agency over his own fate, since no matter what he does he can never do "the wrong thing" or end up in a doomed timeline.

>>70928
Or he kills Jake and takes his name, like he took his sister's blood and U's.
Jake is a confirmed kill on the battlefield, isn't he?

>>70446
>>70929
>>70931
I'm thinking Caliborn's method of creating circles >>70432 >>70433 is basically how pixels work, in they they're a bunch of tiny squares/dots that look like other shapes because there's a bunch of them and they're too small to easily distinguish. Maybe he'll eventually learn to zoom in and start making pixel art.

>>70936
I think he already confirmed he plans on doing what you're suggesting when he was bragging about creating a circle for the first time.

I think by the end of this Caliborn will end up becoming a great artist. It's another way of showing how much progress he is capable of making.

So any large round spherical objects dropping this year?

Wait what happened here?

>>70939

hue

>>70940
Well John had already explicitly said so, and Dave gave no indication of interest in men despite flirting with girls fairly regularly. I'm not sure why people would be surprised by this.

Because yaoifags are delusional as shit.

>>70941
John/Dave is like one of the most popular ships in the fandom, mang.

>>70941
>men
>girls
huh.

People still draw John/Rose and are either doing it for fun or are in complete denial. Not surprised if this hardly does a dent to John/Dave fans.

On the other hand, Hussie has done things in canon that he said he wouldn't, so most of them are probably hinging on that shining track record.

>>70945
Are you seriously implying that John/Rose is sunk?

>>70946

So I was avoiding plus4chan because of all of the dying it's been doing.

Have we talked about how much of a complete idiot Jake is?

>>70948
Do you mean in regards to Jane, or in regards to Caliborn? Yes to the first, a little to the second.

>>70945
Thing is, John/Rose could still happen in-comic. People say that John/Dave fans are stupid because neither is gay, but you are equally stupid for assuming that Rose exclusively likes girls when she's had lots of ship tease with John, had some dirty chats with Dave in the past and was very interested in Karkat's trashy romance novel.

I'm personally hoping that Kanaya/Rose remains a thing, but if Hussie wants her to get together with John I'm okay with that. I have a feeling the trolls won't survive til the end anyway.

Okay I did not expect Hussie to bring up the "if you even knew his name" thing again. What's up with that?

Also Calliope's code is UrobUros isnt it. And I have a feeling that each of them, whatever they are, turns into the other at some point.

>>70953
>Also Calliope's code is UrobUros isnt it. And I have a feeling that each of them, whatever they are, turns into the other at some point.
Assuming the Juju Caliborn is sending Jake is that orange Lil' Seb on the ball there, who is also Liv Tyler and Casey and the rabbit from Con Air, it's almost certain that Calliope's is going to be an instance of one of those too.

>>70955
I doubt that Lil' Seb is his juju. From the looks of it, Gamzee probably dug it up from the dried up ocean floor just like Lil Cal.'

>uu: YEAH. IT'S THE SAME FUCKING CLOWN SOMEHOW.
>uu: I'M TELLING YOU. THIS ASSHOLE IS ETERNAL.

Could Gamzee be a juju?

Did Caliborn seriously alchemize himself a golden tooth?

>>70957
No, from the way he worded it and the fact that he's actually been reading the rules, it sounds like it has officially become a rule of SBURB that clowns can do anything, because "miracles and shit."

>>70959
Gamzee gave Caliborn the golden tooth after he requested it. Noir is going to be the one to kill Jake and Jane.

>>70953
Ha ha, I was still expecting for something really fearsome but turns out it's just Caliborn being shit full of himself.

Lil Cal is the most important character of Homestuck! Congrats little buddy, you earned it. :')

AND HEEEERE WE GO!

Okay so what does that mean about Bro? Dirk, as the Prince of Heart, killed the extra soul inside lil' Cal, which is why Caliborn said he was 'dead'.
Did the hideous soul inside Cal make him watch all those Saw movies? Did Cal teach Bro about Sburb before it came out?

So Lil Cal + [Callie's juju,] the Cueball = Doc Scratch, who takes the place of a planet's first guardian and spreads destruction by summoning Caliborn

Isn't this the first time ever Gamzee looks somewhat scared?

my guess is that the ourboros caliborn gave to Jake in it it's completed form is what "defeats" caliborn....

By trapping him inside lil cal.

>>70969
I don't think he looks scared as as much as he looks entranced or hypnotized.

>>70937
While I think he easily could, the fact that he thought he invented the concept says to me that he hasn't figured out that it was already the foundation of modern computer graphics.

i love you condesce

Oh my god YES

Best trollcestor

>>70975
>>70977
its like
every time she does or says something i think its awesome
because lets face it thats fact who doesnt love the condesce
but then i remember shes thousands of years old and personally killed millions and gleefully ruled over a horrible society that travelled the stars in the search for stuff to slaughter
and then i squee a little bit inside
