Homestuck Webcomic

Gah he got me, I assumed it was a mid act until you made me check just now.
Only 4 more to go QQ

Anyways

since we are here, what do people think about the dirk/roxy theory going around right now? if you havent read it - here it is

Spoiler: show

get this—

the ar is speaking literally when he says “oceans will rise. cities will fall,” and so is dirk when he describes things as “antediluvian”

because dirk and roxy live in the future

in a dystopian waterworld openly ruled by the condesce

thats why dirk’s apartment is infested with seagulls and the environment outside roxy’s house is “unsuitable for a burial”

thats why they’ve been throwing around alternian terms like “wiggling day” and “pale friend”, which jane and jake don’t understand

thats why they have access to crockercorp appearification tech but the heiress to the company only gets a shitty gristwidget

and why dirk says the sbahj movies “will have profound historical significance,” and asks roxy if she’s “ever peeked in a history book”

it’s what dirk’s alluding to here:

TT: It just registers for me as a reaction which isn’t completely unreasonable from her perspective.
TT: She is inundated with media coverage of those whom we’ve claimed as our parental figures.
TT: That they are not presently alive nor ever played that role for us as she understands it is just an extension of a much more elaborate and far reaching explanation, which is much harder for anyone to digest in its entirety.

( from jane’s perspective, rose and dave are still alive )

— and roxy here:

TG: you forget we live in very different time zones
TG: its a lot later here
GG: You’re three hours ahead of me!
TG: youd would be amazed
TG: how much can happen
TG: in 3 hours

UU says it explicitly:

GG: I’m really hoping Lalonde won’t flake out on me this time. Have you heard from her?
UU: not the today that is local to yoU.

while the narrator jokes about it:

You are now Roxy. What were you up to again? You were floating somewhere in the nonlinear timestew of paradox space, and we were hoping to get a handle on the exact chronology of your situation.

You are now Dirk. What the hell was going on here again? That’s right. You were lodged in the bulbous cleft of paradox space’s huge foam ass, and we were hoping to trouble you for a bit of context. Something to set our watches to, if you’d be so kind.

… the mundane alternative, of course, is that jane and jake have led such sheltered lives that they simply don’t know that the world is ruled by a “cake sellin genocidal alien overlard sea queen”.

but p.s.

a world-sundering flood might be labelled blue fathoms

I mean.. theoretically it makes a lot of sense. But this is Homestuck and Hussie we are talking about

Now the verdict is in. If you suspected as much all along, you were not smoking the bargain crack. I’m pleased to report the crack you were smoking was the choicest of crack that money can buy

[Draggy]

best crack.

I am glad it was confirmed, there were too many little clues that all pointed towards it being the case and it explained a lot of things as far as dirk and rox are concerned.

Looking forward to an intermission though,see what our other kids have been up to all this time ;o

[Irohuro]

Wow, I completely missed that. Read the spoiler and blew my mind. I haven't been keeping up as much with it as I used to though, just recently got back to it and caught up from about the middle of the first act 6 intermission.

[Not Kuno]

Hussie is so fucked up

[Cantih]

That is goddamn terrifying.

[Draggy]

[Cantih]

ONLY TWO..
GODDAMNIT

[Irohuro]

Can always count on Karkat to be angrily self-loathing.

[Draggy]

I am really loving this conversation Karkat is having with himself lol

Also Eridan's ducktier
Actually just Eridan in general
I miss him :'(

But yes I love how Karkat is basically just stuck in a loop with himself haha. Once he stops talking to future!Kat it will be just in time for past karkat to start up the memo and yell at him for being in red text :D

Did anyone else notice the coffee machine is that thing from Mother 3?

[Irohuro]

Spoiler: show

Gamzee is hiding inside of it

[Cantih]

I'm sad Kanaya is getting such minimal dialog, but hopefully the next update will fix that.
More face to face cross cultural interaction!

[Tonko]

Great series of technical explanations on how the game works, I'm very pleased by stuff like this. mechanics, rules, effects. Hussie is a mad genius.

[Draggy]

Dave you are so awkward. I didn't really like you before but now oh my god.

Spoiler: show

DAVE: fine well you can be on bro duty then
DAVE: ill be the ambassador to your mom
DAVE: and no that wasnt actually meant as the sick burn it sounded like
ROSE: She's your mom too, though.
DAVE: yeah i know
DAVE: ill be the ambassador to my mom then
DAVE: that sounds pretty stupid when i say it that way
DAVE: whatever

He is just so adorable. And Rose seems to have chilled out a ton and matured for reals.

Edit: lol the Karkat/Dave chat just now xD

Also just because

[Cantih]

Oh god, this update.

EDIT: OH GOD I SPOKE BEFORE I SAW THE LAST PAGE

[Tonko]
