Was gone for a while so here's my gift to you.
IRC is @ espernet #bluhbluh etc etc
ALSO if anyone has the IRC/Whatever the other stuff was copied somewhere repost it soon because I do not have it.
Prior thread is >>83163"#bluhbluh is a pretty fuckin great irc room, but damn if it isn't confusing to get there. You can get to our irc by going to http://chat.mibbit.com/ choosing Esper [webirc] from the drop-down menu, typing whatever you want as your nickname in the "nick" box, typing #Bluhbluh in the "Channel" box and pressing go.Also if you need or want an alternative irc program (or client) I wrote this handy guide to help you out.http://pastebin.com/XSsJqje4Once you're in we'll teach you kung fu and shit."-Pudd
About IRC, I prefer mIRC myself. It's a separate program that doesn't run from your browser but it's much more versatile and practically free. Technically you only get a trial version but it's full featured anyway and the only difference is a "would you like to buy a license" screen you get at startup. If you'd like help with that, just let me know and I'll make a guide. With pictures and shit!>>83925Hngh Sock I love your lineup, lotsa personality and shit going down here. I especially like Eridan striking a pose and sparkling, reminds me of Major Armstrong. Agreed on Sollux by the way, I always thought he'd be tall and lanky instead of the leetle babby man a lot of people draw him as. KK's the leprechaun, not him!>>83943ilu general ivan
>>84010What leprechaun I heard someone say leprechaun.
Wow shortest thread reincarnation cycle ever.
No one asked but I made one anyways.I'm that teamfriendly.
>>84037Most excellent, Askal.
>>84027It should have been shorter! My computer was on the fritz and the poisting took like three minutes to do.
So has anyone made custom fonts for each troll, yet?Seems like something that would be done.
update
Royalty sure is civilized!
oh my godshe's an angel
>>84080i am crying tears of joy right now bea you have no idea
omgFeferi is the BEST
okay im sketching feferi as yotsuba tonightbecause omggggg
Excellent, Feferi's an underwater crazy cat lady!
> You would redefine what it means to be CULLED in troll society. Under your rule it would mean caring for the unfit and infirm rather than exterminating them ...Wow. Imagine life under her rulership.Queen Feferi: "I decree that murdering means hugging people - so everybody please murder your neighbors. Murder them every chance you get. Murder them for peace, murder them for love, murder them for universal trollhood."
>>84078Wow. Did Maplehoof evolve, or-?
>>84090In other news cuttlefish now have powerful electromagnets installed in them so they can become MURDERBUDDIES!
Feferi, you are wonderful.So Pisces gets a kind, progressive-minded troll who loves wildlife, and Aquarius gets a pompous, would-be conqueror who's a huge tool.I am envious. So envious.
>>84091Those are the Sea Ponies!!!I'm guessing Hatie-Pony and Matie-Pony.
>>84090A PARADISE FOR KARKAT
>>84093Thus why they're such perfect moirails - they almost exactly fill the areas that the other is lacking.I have no idea why I was feeling burnt out on this stuff a few days back. This is great.
CLEFT CHIN ALERT
>>84093For fucking real. I wish I was an Aquarius instead. Lucky bastards.
>You would also look forward to using your reign to UNITE THE TWO RACES. You were told you would do this one day by your lusus, even if it does contradict her message of extinction. Oh well, you suppose NOT ALL PROPHECIES CAN COME TRUE. Oh ho ho, what do we have here?
>>84105Awwww she's gonna make the kids all be friends.Oh my god if she and Jade talk my head is going to explode from cute.
more like memary suexes
>>84107I was wondering about the two "races." What could it mean? Seems strange that it would mean trolls and humans when Feferi wouldn't know humanity yet. Does it mean mutant troll and regular troll? (is there such a thing as regular troll? They're all kinda mutants in their own way). Or troll and lusus becoming equals?So. Much. Mystery!
>>84104...Okay, I'm assuming you purposefully misconstrued my post for comedic reasons, but for the sake of clarity I'm an Aquarius who's envious of Pisces.
>>84111Or water and land dwelling trolls. Simple as that.
>>84111He lusus told her, but was vague about it. It's pretty obvious it means the kids and trolls unite.
>>84111I think it's pretty obvious Feferi wants to unite land and sea dwellers. Whether or not that's what Gl'bgolyb's prophecy actually entails is a whole 'nother issue.
>>84112Sir you seem to have some strange form of dyslexia where words two completely switch places in an other wise readable sentence.
>>84114>It's pretty obvious it means the kids and trolls unite.~then there is still hope~
it's pretty obvious her lusus is a dolt of an anusmouthed cthulhu, that's whatI ain't believing shit that fucker said
>>84114Nah, it's more logical this is one way to show that she and Eri are mirrors of each other. It's their motif.He wants to destroy land dwellers, she wants to unite them. Maybe "want" is a bit strong on her point but I'm sure she would if she thought it was possible due to mutual extinction and all that.
>>84102This whole thing is really fascinating to me. It would be incredible as a case study in how a shift in style of a few artists gradually influences and shifts the whole common interpretation.
>>84119Of course if we're debating logic in Hussieland. Just because it may mean one thing don't not expect it to have multiple ironic echoes throughout the story. Trolls and humans would be different species from each other not races but whatever. Don't discount anything where AH is concerned.This anon said it best:>>84115
>>84117For some reason, this picture made Wreckless Eric's "Whole Wide World" get stuck in my head
FUCK YESI HAVE THE BEST TROLLFUCK YOU ALL.*Also, extended mIRC guide.(*by fuck I mean, "I love and want to platonically hug")
>>84078>You capture and cage CUTTLEFISH by the thousands for their own good, and also because they are funny and colorful and you love them. Oh god my heart
>>84117good anonbest ship
>>84107Feferi + cuttlefish + Jade + Bec + Tavros + Tinkerbull/Tinkerspritemultiverse implodes from cuteness
Forums got a new artist on the block.
am I the only one picturing Eridan as the creepy mouth breather who is embarrassingly in love with princess Feferi?
>>84148Eridan is angry Michael Cera
>>84148I thought you were supposed to think that.
>>84148no, thats the secret 13th troll who is fat and dirty and ugly and his name is anonik iymous and he is in love with all the other trolls
Shipping Feferi with Tavros pretty hard right now. Princess and pauper, crippled guy and person who doesn't want society to cull crippled guys, nice and nice!
>>84148Since we decided he had a chin cleft, probably. I sure don't think of him like that anymore. So... glorious...>>84157Yeah, those two just surpassed Vriska x Tavros for my OTP. I'm usually more for tragedy and very oddly expressed affection but just- so- too goddamn cute. Feferi x Tavros x Vriska OT3.
Bluh I think Feferi just surpassed all other trolls on the cuteness scale
I love my troll so much, Andrew you are so kind to me mostly>>84148I don't think he is necessarily the first part (I think that's Equius?) but he is a gigantic tool embarrassingly in love with Feferi, and it's hilarious. Not sure if he is actually as funny as I think he is or if most of it comes from the fanart of him being a lame douchebag with a buttchin, though.>>84157yessss
Tynic finished her Cthlusus painting! Dang but she is good.>funny story, I was painting away for about 40 minutes and wondering vaguely why I didn't seem to have as much line control as normal when I realised I'd forgotten to plug in my tablet and had been drawing exclusively with my laptop trackpad. duh bedtime.GODDAAAAAAMMNN>>84157>>84160oh my goodness yes this
HELL YESHELL FUCKING YES
>>84168He DID put on his robe and wizard hat!
Fuck you all I'm shipping EridanxFeferiit's adorablelook at how much fun they're havingfarming those goddamn sea horses
>>84172Assuming Feferi was mistaken her entire life about just liking Eridan as a Moirail, fuck yeah I'd ship these two. Goddamn. But then again, I would like to see a (mostly) platonic girl/guy bromance before I die.That said, that was the baddest fucking bunp I've ever seen.
I love this so much.
>>84172NOPE
>>84175y u do this>>84173>platonic girl/guy bromanceOkay yeah I could dig it.
>>84173Wow what is up with that filenameAlso I agree. (Partially because I want Feferi/Tavros to happen uh.)
>>84172I would probably like it a lot if I didn't think Eridan's moirail-zoning had such great potential for hilarity.
My guiltiest ship is Eridan/KanayaI just think the way he calls her Kan is so cute
They're so much funnier as a half-platonic relationship with the giant tool embarrassing himself over Feferi.
Good AHBest Update
>>84177It is not for me to know how the mind and file naming process of Radicus Brohemian works.>>84178:3
>>84179...and suddenly I understand WHY Kanaya was always amused when Vriska told her to 'can it'. Adorable! And sad. :(
>>84179Looks like some of the forumites agree

>>8423477/80I got calsprite as a bonus?! Also I missed maplehoof (do'h!) the bunny and jade's penpal (wtf). There's no betty crocker?!
Feferi cutest troll confirmed.
What what? Jade's Penpal and the bunny?Future dave but not calsprite?No serenity?MENDICANT IS SPELLED WITH AN "N"!?
Oh wow, truly Hussie is the most delicious of cheeses. Does he have some sort of place where he keeps all of his art?
>>84248I enjoy how Tycho is vaguely on-model in that one, while Gabe is just this bug-eyed, psychopathic, over-accessorized fury goblin.
>>84248I don't think so. :C That was originally posted on his blog (I think it might have been for the PA anniversary book?).fffffffff I hope Jade alchemizes some magic guns.
Askal.CLEF CHIN. MAKE IT HAPPEN.Otherwise, very good, yes, this thing is a pretty cool dude.
Another thing from that artist.The song's Sister Golden Hair by America, I like it myself :3

CA: this is bs im fuckin bindin you wwith the the crimson bands of cleftorak

Oh god the implications. This "double pairing" thing is definitely something I can get behind.>CC: Is t)(ere a lucky lady you are waxing scarlet for?>CC: OR LUCKY FELLOW??? 38O lolol
>>84282She totally wants to set him up with Karkat. Which would adorahate.
Haha oh Eridan, you take melodrama to a place even I wouldn't when I was "Roosevelt" Brewster in Arsenic and Old Lace.
>CA: and im doing it for us>CA: i mean our kindHopy shit I love this stuff so much I can't stand it.
>>84280Hivebent is really good at that.Havin' all these goddamn flashbacks to my adolescence. Fuckin' pain in the ass.
I know he's a genocidal douche, but still. Poor guy.
We basically have to see a conversation between Eridan and Karkat now. Since apparently all they do is gossip about everyone else's romance.
>>84289If Feferi is right about him at all the only reason he wants to kill everyone else is so he can be with her. Even if she doesn't realize it's her.
I can't relate to this at all. Sucks to be you guys.
>>84293Yeah, I'm also not feeling it. Then again, when I like a girl I ask her out.
>>84290"SO DID YOU HEAR ABOUT TAVROS AND VRISKA? GOG DAMN I WISH I HAD MY POPPING SHRIMP BOWL, IT SOUNDED AS GOOD AS MY FAVORITE MOVIE." "i really wwasn't expectin them to become matesprits or wwhatevver but the wworld's full of miracles, I guess""I AM SICK AND TIRED OF HEARING THAT WORD WE SHALL NEVER MENTION IT AGAIN YOU HEAR ME"
Sucks to be you guys, I got all my awkward adolescent moments over with at the beginning of Hivebent.>>84290I can't wait to see this.OH HEY ALSO DO YOU REMEMBER WHEN I SAID I'D DRAW TF2?NO YOU DON'T BECAUSE IT WAS A BILLION THREADS AGOBUT I DID IT and I hate it but whatever I'll do the rest sometime later posting now (or trying to, fuck you too internet connection) because if I don't I never will probably
>>84302THIS IS SO RAD...something about the thought of Aradiabot as Pyro is vaguely terrifying and I can't put my finger on why. She would be implacable.

I guess you could say he wwuvvs her
Tavros and Feferi for kismesis
> CA: i got to keep tryin thats howw all the great military masterminds became great through upright persevverance > Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.Oh gog, Eridan is Arnold Rimmer on Wax World. Sorry ladies, he is now confirmed as Alternia's greatest smeg head. Arnold even has the chin although not quite enough cleft.While we're on the subject I suppose Fefi would make a decent Kryten. "Going along no matter how deranged the order," how very moirail. Cat is too obvious to bother mentioning. Not sure who Lister would be. A less grumpy Karkat? Maybe if you mixed in enough Gamzee ... Uhg, horrible thought!Oh, hey, it even has that mysterious thirteenth troll in it:>>83744
>>84311For reference
>>84302A little something from the last thread for all you Troll Fortress 2 fanz out there: >>83229
late nite update
Haha, okay, to derail completely: Did we ever find out what determines the zodiac symbol on the troll's shirts? I assumed it had to do with their lusii- Equius is a Sagittarius 'cause of a centaurish lusus, Nepeta's a Leo because of Pounce de Leon, etc- but that whale lusus Eridan killed definitely doesn't correspond to any astrologic sign I know of. Is it just another mystery?
>>84323The zodiac correlation came before the trolls themselves, because there were always going to be 12 of them. It's more accurate to say that the respective zodiac signs determined what the troll's were like than the other way around.
> A bunch of UNBELIEVABLY SHITTY WANDS tumble out.ha! for whatever reason Eridan has been a hard sell to me, but this helps make him somewhat more palatablenot sure why its difficult to care about him. maybe its just too many characters paraded through the intermission. the felt were easy to sum up but trolls are not. i honestly never thought hussie would introduce them all this late in the game (pun intended). kinda glad he did but its still a bit much. how much longer will this last with all 12 introduced?
>>84325I have a theory that Hivebent is gonna end on the 26th of this month.
>>84326So you think Hussie wants to double our pleasure of his numeric themeing?No, wait. Are you sure you aren't mixing Homestuck's 413 with Hivebent's 612 to come up with 8/26? Oh hell does it even matter. I guess it'll end when it ends and we'll enjoy the ride either way, right? :)
>>84329Hussie said on his formspring several months ago that he was considering ending the adventure on 8/26Which is now, of course, totally laughable.
>>84332Well, we could still have Rocks Fall, Everybody Dies. Except for the few confirmed alive in the kid's timeline.
HIVEBENT SHOULD GET ITS OWN SEPERATE COMIC GODDAMMIT
>>84332If there's one flaw Hussie can be stated to have, it's deadlines. The comic's no worse because of it, but I don't think I've ever seen something on MSPA end by the time Hussie says it should.
>>84335Andrew Hussie runs the comic on Reverse Valve Time. Always takes forever-longer than you think or he say it will, but always awesome enough to be worth it.
>>84338It's reverse because you actually like it when he says "this is going to take longer than expected".
>>84302YESYESThis is wonderful!
>>84335And there is one thing that you must always remember: because of this, the Least I Could Do guy thinks of him as inferior and scorn-worthy.
I would relate to Eridan if I ever had talked to someone in my entire life wooooooBut hey, good luck to him, I guess.
>>84338There's a big meme out there where Gabe delays episode 3 a month every time someone calls him fat.Maybe Hussie pushes back the end of Homestuck a month every time someone makes fun of his lips.
everytime you make a bad post on the mspa forums hussie pushes back the ending another day>>84302This is really cool! Vriska as demoman works pretty good.
>>84350Do you think they'll still have the internet when this is done?
>>84350so we must all make forum accounts and make terrible posts nonstop got itMessage received!

oh hey guys
Okay, Eridan's grumpy awkwardness is kind of endearing. And anyone who keeps a fridge full of shitty wands can't be all bad.Also, I found a thing on /co/.
>>84366He's just trying to kill everyone so he and Feferi can finally be alone.♥u♥ How romantic~

Ohhhhh, so that's why she lost her cool back then. omg :3>>84373oh my godbaby gamzee's facekarkat's facebaby karkat's eyesthis is so great
>>84376fuck so cuteFun fact: Tavros was one of the first trolls ML7 drew for her lineup but she did it before the wheelchair reveal. Oops!
Also, Katie continues to be spectacular.
Bea, this is fantastic and it makes me happy.BUT WHAT IS HAPPENING TO THE CLEFT CHINSTHERE IS A CLEFT CHIN SHORTAGEA FAMINEOF CHINSIT'S AN EPIDEMIC
>>84302Somehow I didn't notice this before. It's great, the way you carefully pack characterization of the trolls into their rolls as TF Classes. My headcanon tends to think of Feferi as this lean little pixie of a girl, but I like this version just as much, I think.Also now I know why I've been starting to think of pinstriped pantsuits on women as sexy and something I need to get for myself. It's the two or three times I keep seeing people drawing Terezi in them.
>Askal: goof off instead of doing important things
>>84388We need more homestuck reaction images.For starters, we need to take that .gif of John and Karkat and add the caption INTERNET ARGUMENT.Then maybe we can use Tavros's first headshot (the "sick fires, bro" one) for tHIS IS RELEVANT TO MY INTERESTS, aND i GUESS, pERSONAL MOTIFS,
>>84381may i borrow your earpiece
>>84388Hi Askal. I'm Anonymous. And I love you.

An awesome update.
>>84397Does...a glub count as a bluh?"Perhaps tonight you will reveal your true feelings toward him,"Oh no, don't say she hates him. :(
more delightful romantic misunderstandingsso delightfullike its literally full of delight
>>84373Adorable! But does anyone else notice Tavros is wearing playboy bunny pants? And Karkat is into Pepsi Cola in a big way? Also the two fishies in the back look like they REALL need some water to breathe.
>>84275>>crimson bands of cleftorakslowclap.gif>>84302Yes I love this. Feferi looks so cuddly I bet her hugs heal teammates ; u;>>84392I love you too.

>>84415Oh shit. I just realized I forgot to put my name back on. I went Anon for another post elsewhere on the site and forgot. Sorry. D:
Anyone else find that troll romance just makes human romance easier to understand?
>>84427Human romance was never really that hard??
>>84428Oh wow, what world have you been living in?>>84427Not really because on a basic level troll romance is goofy and pretty much just a giant joke.
His calling a refridgerator a "thermal hull" reminds me of thishttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U_and_non-U_English
>>84429"Candy's dandy but liquor's quicker."That's pretty much the one and only lesson on human romance anyone needs. In fact, nuff said.
>>84432oh my god.I wish I had that laughing Vriska picture ML7 did but I don't because I am dumb and don't save things often enough.
>>84430Some of those U/non-U equivalents are strange to me and my Amurrikan sensibilities. "Napkin" is fancier than "Serviette"??>>84432OTP 4 lief.
Everything here is fantastic.I love all of you.
>>84414sweeeeeeeet
>Unless one of the links in the prototyping chain includes something especially huge and monstrous, but really, what are the odds of that happening? I didn't even think of this. I sure wish we get an animated King battle since the kids obviously can't have one.
>>84440Whatever flash we get for Hivebent, it better be a lot more action-oriented than the MC one...
>You decide to unwind and take your mind off the drama for a while before starting the game. You nearly forgot this is going to be an exciting night. Everything you are about to do next is exciting. It is always exciting. You are excited.
>>84442Look at that scary horse staring in the window like a creeper
>>84447Other windows have seen worse, Bea:http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=1&p=000131
> You plundered it from a ghost ship during a particularly challenging campaign. It was the same old gamblignant's ship from which your accomplice at the time also plundered a set of extraordinarily powerful dice.I really hope that isn't the wreck of some *other* ship we've just happened to see at some point in the story, winding up on Alternia due to weird time shiz among other things.
They both have nifty implements of battle.In other news, Katie continues to be amazing.
>>84450Between the rift and the extreme looseness time plays with this game Grandpa's ship could have crashed at any time with the ultimate weapons the kids made. Much like how a certain bunny has lead a *very* interesting temporal existence. Bonus points if the "ghost ship" is haunted by the ghosts of all the kids and trolls and guardians and - gogdamn that's depressing.
So turns out the real reason was the milk after all:http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004116What can we say? Cats do love 'em some milk.
My current project: making an osu! beatmap out of the Double Rainbow song.

>>84454Yeah right, we all know the one true way is Grandpa Harley's ship/the White Queen's ship.
>>84456Pftt, yeah right. Then why'd she trade if for an - EGG! -
Did someone forget to mention updates? Cuz there totally are some now!
NOT A TRICK!
So the one time, the ONE TIME his doomsday device has the possibility of working, and it goes off before it reaches him, and he doesn't even know.Wow, Eridan, your supervillain plans just can't catch a 8r8k!
>>84465I don't know, it produced a very localized end of the world. For a few lusii anyway.I wonder if Spidermom will hold the whole beheading thing against Vriska when she's a sprite? Who knows, she'll probably be gr8tful.Crap, the disease is c8tching!
>>84464so vriska and eridan are...exes, kind of? interestingunrelated but does anyone have a source on whoever drew this? so i can kiss them with tongue? their style is so cute.
>>84465 Nah, the doomsday cascader was so shitty it just broke. Eridan's plans for romance are the ones that fail; his targets for red, black, and even his attempt at getting Kanaya to pale things up. Even his moirallegiance with Fef has been called to question with the recent update. Eridan fails all of the mances. All of them.

>>84508:3cHere's a thing that i was doing until it dawned on me Junk did this already and 100 times betterBUT at least I am getting used to SAI which is GREAT for lines holy cow. Photoshop feels like a clunky beast compared to it.
>>84520I always hear people talk mad game about SAI, what differentiates it from photoshop?
>>84522You can rotate the canvas and line quality is a million times better. You know those shaky lines on Photoshop? Those don't happen with SAI.I keep with Photoshop because I am afraid to try new things :<
>>84524Huh, well I guess I'll blaze a path into the brave new future and go try it.
>>84522Well I was going to draw you an example but SAI is shitting itself again. It seems to be less stable program (for a long time it just flat out decided not to recognize pen pressure no matter what and now it won't take my pen at all) BUT the line work is crazy smoother. I did the Nepeta in SAI in no time flat because my lines are super-aliased.

also please god don't let Fef's "true feelings" be hatred. My heart.
Everytime they show up in the comic Vriska and Eridan become better and better.I wish the comic was just thous two slaughtering hundreds of thousands of trolls.
>>84546you gave me something I could trace, of course I churn it out the same night.
>>84560Hahah, I love it.I'm pretty busy with classes now, start of the semester & all that, but i should have yours within a couple days
Cripes. Given a few more years to mature and gain a bit more competence, those two could have probably wiped out all life on Alternia. Which kinda makes the whole asteroids thing seem mild by comparison.
Christ what is wrong with people. They seem seriously upset with the way these two act. Like, yes the comic has drama and series bits but for the most part its a fucking comedy. Laugh when Vriska and Eridan kill hundreds. Laugh when Tavros gets forced off a cliff. Laugh when the gay vampire cries. You fucking pussy ass mspa formers laugh laugh until you die don't fucking whine about how seeing vriska lineing up all them trolls to walk the plank make you feel sick. real 4chan im ashamed of you to when have you become such thin skinned faggots that you dont jerk off over the evil sociopaths. fuck you too. fuck you. fuck me. drown me in cum.
>>84557Here's how it's gonna go down:Feferi calls him up saying that she's nearby and she has something important to say so could he come outside for a while? He gets all giddy because he fantasizes about exactly this as he goes to sleep every day. She's gonna confess her undying love for him! She'll tell him that his cleft chin is magnificent, and he'll give her this scarf he made just for her, and then they'll make out on a Little Mermaid rock in the middle of the ocean while fireworks and shit go on in the background.Her face is dead serious when he sees her though, a straight line where her smile's supposed to be. Feferi says she is really, really sorry but she doesn't think they can work out as morails. She can't approve of the things he does and it tears at her moral core. While she would really like to keep it on she can't deal with the stress anymore. He's unwilling to change so maybe it's best if they they were just regular friends.She hugs him, in a friendly but more distant manner than before, and she tells him she's really sorry again, but she guesses maybe they can patch this up because it's not as if this relationship was all red or anything, right? Feferi does this little quasi-reassuring half-smile, pecks him on the cheek, and then she's off back to her hive on her seahorse thing.Eridan tries his best not to cry.
>>84564
>>84564I hate you.

You've actually done that to some poor bastard haven't you sock
>>84576With burn scars.
Wait so Im a little confused on troll parenting mechanics. Vriska and CC tamed these troll/lusus eating motherfuckers when they were both babies?
>>84563It depends on who I like more. I like Tavros and Aradia more than Vriska, so she's a bluh bluh huge bitch. I dilikeit when something I like as a person is hurt. I laugh when Vriska gets her comeuppance. Hard.
>>84579My understanding is that the lusus essentially "adopts" the troll when they are young and the relationship is somewhat symbiotic.
>>84577it is my day jobAlso this is what actually happened at the last line of >>84564. Of all the shitty doodles I have inflicted on you guys in the past I think this is probably the shittiest.
>>84584I find it hilarious
>>84581Of course if this follows Sburb mechanics of self-creation the Guardians, er, Custodian plays some role. What role?Well okay ...Kanaya has a virgin mother grub.Virgin mother grub dies.Kanaya says that she will one day give her mother grub chidren.Kanaya removes weird horned sphere from mother grub.We speculate this is part of the trolls making themselves.The children she gives her mother grub is THEM.But her mother grub is still a virgin.Presumably needs more DNA (however that words for trolls; i.e. a bucket and spade ... I mean just the bucket).The lusii provide that DNA.The trolls are part lusus.But due to weird troll genetics they don't look the part, they simply take on certain characteristics. This is why they are all mutant trolls. None of them are normal.Or alternately the other half of the genetics ... is from themselves. They "fertilized" their own virgin mother grub egg to create: themselves. Boy that really IS some incestuous slurry!TL;DR. Well aren't you one lucky SOB. That was some grade A nasty freak material up there.
So basically this is why we're focusing so much on troll relationships. They'll eventually need to fill some pails to finish fertilizing their own egg.And because they are only six sweeps old we all get FBIed afterward. All of us. Every one. This was Hussie's master plan to troll his readers all along. And we were suckered by it. All of us. Every one.Or alternately all we get during the birthing scene is a series of reaction shots focused on Karkat's face as he hilariously freaks out. The viewer never gets any real details on how the trolls are actually birthed. That's a pretty good troll of the viewers too right there. And no vans required.
>>84588Homestuck is basically just one big social experiment. Like Jonestown, only with aliens and magic.
>>84591When will the refreshments be getting here, I'm THIRSTY!
>>84595patience, brother.
I think we overlooked something the last few days, namely in:http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004341> ER IMPERIOUS CONDESCENSION would steer the flagship from the fleet and make an attempt on your life herself, if not for the protection of your monstrous lusus. Presumably this flagship would have some kind of orbital spank rays it could use on the surface or even under the ocean. Since once you're in orbit just letting go of something heavy enough and letting gravity do its thing is a powerful weapon.So is her lusus actually capable of defending against an orbital strike? Maybe. I wonder if it has anything to do with momthulhu raising her voice. So if the lusus is that full of mojo what happens when she gets prototyped? Eridan's foreshadowing looks a bit more sinister now and that didn't seem the fuck possible.
>>84600They use threshecutioners and archeradicators and things like that. Orbital bombardment is for pussies.
>>84600Or maybe is the Chicago Overcoat!
>>84397This, this right here, is the first time in a long time I've laughed at Homestuck again.
>>84600or they don't want to nuke their home planet
This is really cool
>>84633Seagrift Vriska makes me want to listen to Alestorm.
>be some kind of amateur voice actor>check hivebent radio play thread>BEESMYGOD IS ON THE CASTING CREWaaaaaaa bea please go easy on my stupid shit
>>84657Only if you give me sexy sexy favors in return.Actually I'm going to try to be as impartial as I possibly can. One of the biggest things I'm looking at are 1. mike quality (doesn't have to be flawless but bad mikes are a huge problem) and 2. Capturing the spirit of the character; even if you flub a line or two if you're going in the right direction I appreciate it. For example, my biggest problem with the Karkats was that they weren't angry enough!also: lol @ this
>>84659That would make the sexiest shirt.
Everyday I cry myself to sleep because i dont have the recording equipment necessary to make a voice acting audition equivalent of my mspaint drawings.
>>84616Yes, because trolls *obviously* have such respect for each other, the sanctity of all life, and wish to protect their planet as the lush and verdant paradise it is- oh waiiiit
>>84663Or they don't want their race to die off due to lack of the planet they use to breed. That would deplete their military.
>>84664Although trolls seem to be big big advocates of the military doctrine There Is No Kill Like Overkill I'm not sure why we're assuming they'd have to level the whole planet just to kill one troll. They don't need an extinction level events, guys, just a nice smoking crater will do. Sheesh.
>>84659> Only if you give me sexy sexy favors in return. So we get to be in the radio play, AND we can give you sexual favors? Sign me up!
>>84600This wonderful internet bicker seems to be overlooking the point raised in the post that started it, which was based on the text here:> HER IMPERIOUS CONDESCENSION would steer the flagship from the fleet and make an attempt on your life herself, if not for the protection of your monstrous lusus. The Empress would send the flagship. The flagship would undoubtedly have some serious military hardware. But the giant tentacle lusus would protect her. Even without knowing what that protection would be, or whether strictly defensive or offensive in nature, we are told that the lusus is why the Empress wouldn't send her ship. This is a very telling statement despite how vague it is for the above mentioned reasons. We already know tentacle mom keeps the big bad flagships at bay. The question then became what makes her a credible threat to a ship in orbit and how will this play out in the session once she is prototyped.That was pretty much it. No death to the entire troll world needed. Ironically we'll see either way so this intended to be fun speculation is ultimately pointless. How about an alternate proposed fun speculation? How's she going to lift tentacle mom in order to prototype her with the kernel sprite?Meh, this was more trouble than it was worth.
If it weren't for the fact that SAI doesn't allow for GIF animations, I'd have done that for STRIFETECH: COMRADES-IN-ARMS. So you get this version instead with text.
>>84666I typed and lost a long winded response to this comparing Alternia to the Roman Empire but I accidentally the whole text >:I So you get the Cliff's Notes.We can see from the way Karkat and Terezi react to Vriska's schemes that it's not the genocide that bothered them but the deceit and betrayal. They also all believe that they are tied to other trolls by destiny, some link greater than fondess. If loyalty is such an important value in Alternia as this suggests, imagine what the politics are like. We saw from Vriska and Equius that bluebloods fight and scheme bitterly among themselves for power grabs.With that in mind, there are sure to be several warlords, essentially, within the empire. Even if you were the mightiest, the admiral of the flagship, you would need the support of several of them to successfully take the throne without dissolving the empire in bitter civil war and rebellions. This is hard enough using discreet methods such as bribery and assassination, but an aerial strike? Such naked and bold actions like that are sure to reach the ears of even the cannon fodder soldiers and imagine the outrage that would produce from collective trollkind.And they may not be conservationists but they're not stupid either, any large scale attack on their home planet would cause some sort of undesirable fallout and there's never any telling how bad it would be. even it were localized, it could very well disrupt a neighbouring ecosystem and so on until the entire planet is barren.And Hussie only knows (maybe) what cthulusus might do. We've seen the minor mutations of the kids, I have no doubt her mind or voice reaches far beyond her tentacles' reach (which is already pretty damn big!)
>>84669Oh my.Also I'm completely redoing that Nepeta for my sis; WIPShe needs more forehead, I think
>>84675Uhg, I shouldn't respond but - ARGH. Now we're getting into theoretical politics and I guess some kind of speculation that Fef would go on the lam if she knew they were gunning for her so they'd have to level the world or I don't even know anymore.The point was already posted several times:> HER IMPERIOUS CONDESCENSION would steer the flagship from the fleet and make an attempt on your life herself, if not for the protection of your monstrous lusus.Bolded the important bit for emphasis. The fact that the flagship - just taken at face value as worthy of being a flagship, whatever that means - is already off the table as a FOREGONE CONCLUSION. Due to undersea tentacle monster alone.That's it. That's all the information we have. No point speculating any further, really, just bask in the vague notion of how awesome this particular lusus must be and how much more difficult the trolls will make the game for themselves once she is prototyped.That is all that really needs to be said. Any attempt to go into details is pure fanwankery. Which used to be enjoyable around here, guys. When did we start taking things so seriously and writing treatises on pointless subjects we'll see in future updates anyway? Which I'm as guilty of if not more so than anyone ... So sorry and can we please move on?
>>84673Othar if you ever want to make an animation, go ahead and make the frames and i can try to animate it for you in flash or something.
>>84678Oh, no hard feelings, man. I wasn't even aware this was a heated discussion but then my attitude on Hivebent seems to be different from most. I didn't mean to overstep any boundaries of canon and speculation nor be a killjoy. Sorry about that.I have a tendency of coming off serious because of the way I write all the time even though I am a big goof.>>84676FFFFFFFFFF I WANT TO HUG IT BUT IT IS 2D
>>84679I'm still working on Vriska and Ariada, actually, that reminds me. Is there any preferred method of throwing them in your direction?
>>84687 You could just compile them into a .rar and post them here, or if you want a more private way, PM me on the forums if you have an account.If you don't you could e-mail them to me but I'm very bad at e-mail checking!
Update: we learn a little more about the SPEAKER OF THE VAST GLUB. Poor Fef.
DAT GLUBWell now we know why the Empress won't risk attacking the planet.
Well there goes all the arguing about why nobody tries to kill Feferi. Honestly will there ever be a day when MSPA won't make MSPA theorizers feel dumb?
>First, the lesser bloods, those more psychically susceptible. What does this say about Aradia, who cannot be controlled (psychically) by Vriska? Does it have to do with the arbitrary/circular nature of the hemospectrum?
>>84700I think it's because Aradia has psychic powers of her own, therefore knows the tricks and is more or less immune to brainfuckery.
Whoa. So even the imps effected in prototyping might acquire troll killing voices? Probably diluted thanks to their size but imagine DAT KING. Anyone remember how Terezi wasn't worried about FutureDave since she was higher on the echeladder?http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=003557I suppose the trolls would be after leveling up for killing their king. I wonder how they'd stand up to Jack Noir at this point ... Still probably not even a fraction of Lord English, though :(
>>84702Well if the imps can preform the world killing glub why not use the Vast Joke too, they were prototyped with the frog.
>>84700So far it seems like ALL of the troll kids are mutants of some kind. Hard to say because even something as basic as blood coloration seems to be based on personal mutation. We don't know enough about other troll kids to compare so it's hard to draw conclusions. Maybe these trolls are different still based on their unusual birthing mechanism. Point is they might all be different enough from normal trolls to withstand all the Great Glubbery.It's possible at least.
>>84704They were prototyped with a frog head statue, NOT King Pondsquatter:http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004208It's the difference between looking like the thing and being the thing. If Aradia actually prototyped Pondsquatter him(?)self we'd be asking that, but as it stands right now it's silly to assume they'd acquire the Vast Joke.See the difference?
>>84702Maybe only physical characteristics pass through the prototyping. The Glub strikes me as some sort of outer-gods-type power; maybe that just doesn't transfer.
BLOOD FOR THE GLUB-GOD!!!
>>84707Actually that's not quite how this lusus is described:> You are also a SEA DWELLER. You have the most noble blood possible, the only of your kind known to possess it, and the only to share it with GL'BGOLYB, a deep sea monster also known as THE RIFT'S CARBUNCLE, EMISSARY TO THE HORRORTERRORS, or in more hushed tones, SPEAKER OF THE VAST GLUB. Then reread:http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=002204The Horrorterrors are the same gods who whisper to the children whose sleeping selves are on Derse, and who are also holding Rose's Gamefaq walkthrough for her.So this Lusus *isn't* a Horrorterror but the Emissary TO them. Still a significant force to be described thus, but not quite the same. Not enough info to draw conclusions from but it directly ties this lusus to Sgrub.As for how the prototyping will turn out we'll see soon enough ...
>And if she were ever to get really upset, she might release THE VAST GLUB, a psychic shockwave that would exterminate every troll in the galaxy.Hey well I guess we know how all the other trolls die. Solves the "but can't the offworld guys just repopulate after their homeworld's been bombarded by meteors?"The kraken will probably die immediately after the eleventh member enters the daisy chain, scream in agony and wipe out the entire species except for Feferi, who is immune because it's her lusus.Wonder if death by psychic shockwave is preferable to death by meteor.
I made a thing. Uh, let me know what I'm doing wrong.Also, awww Feferi wuvs Blackbolt Cthulusus :3
>>84711Safe to assume it was an unintentional death glub? A rock falls on one of her tentacles and WHOOPSIE there goes insta-kill scream.
>>84710I wasn't trying to say that Gl'Bgolyb was literally an outer power, just that the Glub doesn't strike me as the kind of power a normal creature would possess. It's something she gained as part of her position as an emissary.Even the emissaries to the outer gods in the Lovecraft Mythos were fearful beings in their own right (see: Nyarlathotep). I know Andrew has said he hasn't actually read any Lovecraft, but the emissary position still has some weight in the popular culture conceptions of the Mythos.
>>84711I can't even imagine what a psychic deathwave even means. Does the victim go gently into that sweet night or are their minds torn apart in a seeming eternity of torment?
>>84717>Psychic Deathscream killing billions upon billions of souls>but gentlyYeah, I'm just not seeing it.
>>84712SNOIPAH
>>84715Well, can't discount weird time stuff. She might not be the emissary NOW, she might be later on the troll kid's behalf. So it could be a future prophetic title right now. Which is MUCH less confusing than future perfect tense.
>>84717I imagine it'd be something like what New York went through when Ozy dropped a squid on 'em.
>>84719"Ohhh, the Jedi are going to feel this one."- Hubert Farnsworth
>>84717Maybe it's like hearing a gigantic noise without sound, but so loud and so quick that you just can't think of anything else but trying to shut out the sound.
>>84721It doesn't even have to be that complex. She might be the emissary now, and always have been the emissary. Jade saw her visions long before she started playing Sburb. This could be some sort of the same thing. The whole universe infection process involved with Sburb/Sgrub created an eventual need for an emissary in the game, so there was always an emissary.Also, Gl'Bgolyb is described as being called the emissary in the past tense, so she was known as the emissary before Sgrub was ever even playable.
>>84725Yeah but even the once and future king had to pull the sword from the stone first.
>>84722"I did it 4 minutes and 13 seconds ago."
>>84724So ... in other words a giant psionic death wave. Yeah, we got that from the actual page:> And if she were ever to get really upset, she might release THE VAST GLUB, a psychic shockwave that would exterminate every troll in the galaxy.;)
>>84682i think people are just trying to live up to the thread name, hehehe
>>84729I'm sorry, but I don't know what you're trying to say.
>>84731Yes, yes I know. I read that page as well. I was speculating about what it would actually feel like if that happened to you.
Okay damn, yeah I'd opt for the meteors.>>84720FFFFFFFFFFFFFFF>>84732... Oh!
>>84735Egon probably said it best>>84733Arthurian legend. Arther may have be the Once and Future King of England with myth and destiny on his side but that didn't mean he still didn't have to work for it. I think what the person meant was it might not be that simple when it happens in the story. But then we are getting an expedited version of events here.
>>84739Oh gog, bonus points if Sollux actually says this!
>>84736Askal now I'm reading all of sollux's lines with an australia accent.DAMN YOUNepeta's as done as she's gonna get.
>>84752Awesome! Great job, Bea!
>>84752That glazed look is kinda freaking me out to be honest.Nepeta's got the thousand yard stare.
>>84755Better?Now she looks stoned though, she's been chilling with gamzee
>>84755But cats do that. Good GOD do cats do that O-O
sprite edits is art right
>>84770oh my goodness I'm enjoying this~
Her lipstick is a bit... awkward. It doesn't seem to follow the shape of her lips.
Oh god, I cringed.Never do this with glasses unless you enjoy huge finger smears on the inside of them.
>>84775Look at the badass horned wizard behind him.>>84774/o/ I will look into this!
Woo, he fixed that typo fast
>>84779I happens. Even to the best sometimes.
>>84776If I extend it on top does that work?
>>84781Yeah, but extend it a little more methinks
So is Fef gonna be the one who doesn't prototype her Lusus or has that position already been taken? I can't remember.
>>84775I think that depends on what kind of glasses you're wearing. That never happens to me. Also I only just realized that he's got some Adam Warren sized fishlips for a guy. Either that or it's lipstick.
>>84792Aradia prototyped herself and the frog head, but not her lusus.
Eridan and Vriska's murderous actions are easier to accept now that Andrew's made it pretty clear that the trolls and troll society in general are mostly huge assholes who don't understand love and only hate and cull. Their victims were people who voluntarily played a potentially lethal game, meaning they were probably mean trolls to begin with and adding the roleplaying edge just means "they're asking for it".In general we see all the nice trolls there have ever been amongst our twelve, as all 12 are somewhat exceptional (Tavros is considered brain-damaged, Feferi's downright politically radical, Terezi's belief in justice is tempered by the murderous and pro-vigilante beliefs of troll society, etc etc).It also helps to accept that Andrew is a good enough writer to know that you have to be aware of and play to the moral sensibilities of your audience if you intend people to take your story seriously. Vriska 0wns but is also a jerk and both facts are well understood and represented.Honestly? I think Vriska would've been much more palatable if we'd been introduced to her murderous, Tavros-paralyzing ways after we had a clearer image of troll society. Tavros and Aradia are probably the nicest people she's ever victimized.
Actually, I think Aradia's lusus might have been fed to the squid here.
>>84798Oh, also, before anyone asks the reason why some want to "accept" their actions is because the story does ask you to care about what's going on and that's harder to do if the author throws around a bunch of evil stuff and nobody cares or reacts to it in a relatable way. It's really annoying in a story when an evil character isn't seen as all that evil by the other characters because the author doesn't see them as all that evil, kinda weakens the story since you're drawn to the fact that all the characters in the story ultimately share or support the author's viewpoint.
>>84798When Terezi and Vriska were partners they only took down the worst players (who probably played FLARP like Vriska does). Vriska alone took down anyone she came across and Terezi didn't like that, so there are probably other nice trolls out there and she fed some of them to Spidermom. Terezi might have killed some nice ones too, mind you, if she misjudged them.I would not say that they don't love, because they do. They just think it is equal to hate and the two should exist in a balanced state like yin and yang, while in general we think love should drown it out. They don't like Tavros because he's all love and no hate, but they also don't like trolls who are all hate and no love (or feel both sides but can't balance them properly, like Vriska).>>84799Pretty sure Aradia's lusus was vaporized.
I want the last part of the last song in the last flash update to be John putting the final blow on Jack/english/cal/whoever while the piano version of show time playsthat would be the best
hnhelo
I should really draw other things once in a while.But god damn I love Fist of the North Star.
>>84808hnelo hnow anre yonu
>>84808what>>84807That WOULD be awesome.Just a poll what song would you guys want used for the Troll flash? I fucking love Skaian Summoning.
The La2t Frontiier.
>>84815some remix of sburban jungle or maybe showdown
>>84808I don't understand what this is>>84807god yes>>84815I think Skaian Summoning could work if it was remixed, or in a medley like Descend. That is some pretty awesome final boss music, but I'm not sure the whole thing untouched would work for the whole flash? I have no idea what Andrew is going to do but it's probably going to be all ACTION ACTION ACTION to make up for--well not make up for but I don't have better wording than that at the moment--all the TALK TALK TALK that Hivebent has to offer.Actually: A medley of the Alternia album in general. Dunno if that's conceivable, but it would be cool. That is my vote.
>>84819I was just about to change my vote to a medley of all the individual troll themes. That would be AWESOME.Also Vriska's song needs to be about 5 minutes longer.
La2t Frontiierpossibly remixed by Beatfox
>>84808aaah meteor
>> Dance Pupa Dance . . .
>>84825Tavros is Ludo.You know it to be true.
You remind me of the Spade
>>84826>Tavros is LudaI misread this and couldn't stop laughingsTAY THE FUCK UP OUT MY BIZNASS, uH,bECAUSE THESE GRUBS ALL UP IN MY, uH, iNTERESTS AND ITS, uH, MY BUSINESS,mY BUSINESS
>>84825This is made of so much win.
>>84828What Spade?
>>84833The Spade with the power
what power?
The power of hate screws
>>84775 Everyone knows hipsters only wear horn-rimmed glasses with no lenses.So Eridan's hangup and self-sabotage is not caused by a sense of right/wrong, but by his pathetic lovesick desire to appease Feferi (which is also the reason he wants to kill everyone else, right? to be alone together?). And so the fate of a race hangs on the outcome of a relationship between two angsty 13-year-olds. I'm surprised armageddon hasn't happened sooner.
You know what folks? I can't wait for the *next* intermission where Dinosaur Comics crosses over and T-Rex saves everyone. EVERY. ONE.Behold ye unworthy and weep before the otherworldly oracle known as Calvin and Hobbes!
>>84847Yes. Yes. this is excellent>>84842im 0kay with this
Oh hey!Look what I found!
>>84849>>84851Everyone should have a Gamzee.
>>84842Dinosaur Comics is already canon, duh
>>84858I can imagine it now, two acquainted but not particularly close friends who both read Homestuck. One is in a predicament and crumbling under the pressure. Friend slings a shoulder around them comfortingly. "Hey, if you want, I can be your Gamzee, bro."Anonymous, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship.
>>84849 >>84851I like this.>>84858Yes. I wish I had a Gamzee. :(
>>84863>>84866gdi i think my homestuck reading bff is terezi and i am karkat>>84860T-Rex's denizen is a raccoon and his wall writings say "You are made of meat"
>>84849>>84851...I don't get why Gamzee was used for this.
Hey look! Nightmare fuel!
>>84867God and the Devil are actually Exiles!
>>84858I'd rather have a Vriska.Why, yes, i am pron to unhealthy and unstable relationships but I don't see what that has to do with anyohhhhh
>>84869I needed to sleep tonight.>>84868Because he is everyone's bro. Also I don't think any of the other trolls would actually want to comfort her, so he is pretty much the only option. (Except Feferi, maybe?)
>>84868I don't know, but it's adorable, so I don't mind.>>84871A Vriska's fine, too.
>>84872Yeah, but... he acts nothing like Gamzee here. He's just a generic helpful friend. Why use the drugged out juggalo? Why not use a more helpful or coherent troll?
>>84875I can't answer that one.
Postin' from forums>no mr vanta2 ii expect you two diie
>>84860Okay, how did ANY of what you just said negate the kick ass thing this person suggested? Philistine.
>>84869that's about right. good night folks
Newspost:I guess I should warn you that the closer we get to wrapping this segment up, the closer I will get to making another animation. This will likely mean a good plenty of days with no updates at all once I start. I have not started yet but I probably will soon. I will let you know.bawww i don't want it to be over yet
>>84881I can hardly imagine being close to the end of this arc when there's still so much left unresolved, but I guess that end is closer than I'd thought. Hopefully things can either be cleared-up succinctly, or else answered in later arcs.
>>84883we probably shouldn't expect them to be wrapped up entirely. expect some details of things we've glossed over to come out in future conversations with the kids, maybe even have some flashbacks. it's all good
Land of dew and glass?
Oooh, picture's loaded. Pretty.
Dang that's a late update.
Pretty!
>>84888Or is it ... early?

>>84895man does your website suck
Picture so pretty it should be the next OP pic.
>>84850Thanks! I figure I can use all the practice I can get so let me know if you have any other ideas you wanna see.That goes for all of you, not just Bea. (Who will probably just want me to draw salmon and berries)
. . . Gamzee has a rocket powered one-wheeled device in the latest update. WE MUST PAY TRIBUTE TO THIS GLORIOUS MIRACLE.
