This flash was quite awesome. My roommate (who is almost finished with Act 5) and myself watched it this morning before classes and we were laughing with quite some force. Especially at Robro slapping Jake's eyes off and acquiring a second pair of glasses. Dirk himself has become quite the force. It's like Hussie saw a few of the fans share their dislike and decided to deliver exactly what we were waiting for. A lot of ass kicking. This flash just makes me more excited to further unravel the massive series of puzzles that form one super puzzle that is Homestuck.

Jake's fight cracked my shit up lmao. I can't take that arm flailing. And Dirk is just awesome.
-
I still don't really appreciate Dirk character and can only wonder where and how Hussie will take him through this journey. But his declaration of war was pretty damn great. And I have seen my share of fictional declarations of war.
-
Jake is a real… looker.
-
Wait…maybe Vriska...signless neckless...dead...the fuck was that!
-
Young Ancestor maybe?
edit: Yup. Mindfang. She had a thing with Signless now that I remember it.
-
So, to recap where I am:
[hide]
Jade is dead but somehow still alive John discovered his dream self the Black Queen is dead but is also Snowman in the Troll's game Bec is an experiment the Mail Lady is wearing the crown now Dave has the most useful and yet lame looking sprite ever Rose has either gone off the deep end thanks to another timeline being erased and/or the influence of the Outer Gods or she's going to save this clusterfuck of shit yet Jack squandered his chance to be a snazzy gangster and instead became the asshats of all asshats while wearing an even more asshat outfit than the one his now dead asshat black queen tried to make him wear before and Hussie's most twisted Christmas gift to me ever is John making everyone's guardians and the kids (including himself) out of the same genetic material only to ship them out later on comets possibly including the one that hit his house (likely not) and I have been warned by a friend of mine that shit is only going to get more confusing and that the end of Act 5 will make me flip my shit which I may or may not record while I do so.Let's see what the trolls are up to.[/hide]

Yeah, Homestuck becomes more and more complicated as time goes on since it is able to interact with itself at a greater scale. Innocuous details become important, most things twist themselves around the story in convoluted, yet sensical ways and all events are eventually tied up. It's a brilliant process that weaves through 20 main characters and two separate instances of two different universes defined by large elements of inevitability but sabotaged by a fatal glitch. It's pretty neat.

Oh Jesus.
Oh Karkat Sollux oh fucking Jesus!

I'm going to be up all night again.

OH GOD JANE WHY CAN YOU NOT BE UP FRONT ABOUT YOUR FEELINGS ALSO STRIDER-BOT WHY ARE YOU ABOUT TO RIP OUT YOUR HEART AND MAYBE SMASH IT AND THEN BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF AND ROBO SMOOCH JAKE? Cause to be honest that seems like something you'd do. Man.
Also Kid-Mindfang oh god so awesome I wish there could be a million updates at once.
-
violent beatings and robo-smooches are definitely the best approach to wooing a young man
-
This entire conversation between Jane and Jake is a total riot!
-
This is as painful to read as it is hillarious.
-
Just finished Act 5
The awesome is so great I was really too burned out to start the fresh and innocent Act 6.
Wowsers that was a lot to take in. -
i think i just died laughing. poor brobot though.
-
Jesus Christ. Poor Jane.
Breaking down in an dishonest array of emotional sarcasm.
Worst "You blew it!" EVER!
Roxy's shoulders are going to be soaking wet now. -
Lmao Hussie did more Q&A: http://mspandrew.tumblr.com/post/18106704483/ok-i-answered-some-more-questions
“Now that Jake and Jane are a official non-couple is Jake and Dirk going to be a couple and what will happen with Jane and Roxy?”
I couldn’t quite follow your question because I was too distracted by drawing Jane and Roxy making out for the next 500 pages.
It would make quite the story arc.
-
Good lesbians. Best story arc.
-
Loved Jack's and the Dignitary's conversation. And Jack's horrible fixation with terrible puns. Actually I could just read nothing but Jack narrating everything forever and be happy.
Go WQ though. Ouch.
-
It's refreshing for Jack to not be absolutely terrifying for the first time in a while ^_^;;;
-
Who builds these things?

Le Frigglish est mort, vive le Jaspersprite!

Make sure to click the little pink horseshoe at the end ^_-
-
Now that I see this mash up I realize how much shit this cat actually went through…in several universese. His dead body was thrown around more often than shitty arguments in your average manga discussion thread. In memory of Jasper I went and reread a few of the pages with him, like the strangely poignant goodbye to Rose. And also this conversation.
[hide]JASPERSPRITE: You shouldnt lose hope!
JASPERSPRITE: I have another story that might give you hope even though it should be noted again that im only a cat.
AC: :33 < oh?
JASPERSPRITE: Yes one time i was with rose and i was sitting there dressed up in my suit with her as happy as can be.
JASPERSPRITE: But then she disappeared!
JASPERSPRITE: The whole place disappeared and i was in another place. There was no rose there was someone else.
JASPERSPRITE: I guess i loved her too in time but never as much as rose it just wasnt the same.
JASPERSPRITE: I kept waiting to see rose again but never did and finally i lost hope that i would and then i died.
JASPERSPRITE: But then i became alive again and i got to see her and i was so happy! Purr purr purr purr purr.
JASPERSPRITE: Thats my story and thats why i think theres always hope even if you die.
AC: :33 < so, youre saying that maybe i will have to die to get to be with him?
JASPERSPRITE: Yes maybe. :3Daaww Jasper you didn't deserve to go through all this shit. Seriously no no no.
But wait, that thing he says at the end. I remember…. A shitload of pages later
[hide]Hussie you little…come here so I can fucking...pet you on the shoulder for this evil foreshadowing lol [/hide] [/hide]
@Silverblade:Can't hear enough of this.
Just again for good measure: Roxy is da best character ever. I lost my heart to her when she wonked at me for the first time :wub:
Make sure to click the little pink horseshoe at the end ^_-
A bazillion trillion thank you's! I almost missed that little gold nugget right there! Hahahah
-
Make sure to click the little pink horseshoe at the end ^_-
oh my god thank you. i totally missed that. so cute.
-
Jane x Roxy is my otp
–- Update From New Post Merge ---
-
-
Don't worry, I missed it at frist too, I just got fortunate to check the forum soon after it was posted to be in time for the actual reactions instead of spam-y off topicness that I usually see.
-
So derse wanderers hunt cats in Roxies house…did not see that coming.
-
I thought for a moment we were going to get a strife with robomom (a possibility since the public still thinks she's alive). This is much more OHSHIT.
-
Jane x Roxy is my otp
–- Update From New Post Merge ---
they are so adorable and i don't even normally care about ladyslash. <3
-
Nooo! What will happen to Roxy?
Also, finally caught up. Now to wait like everyone else.
-
Earlier pages show that Dirk plugs in the machine, so I'm guessing Roxy would show up on the other side the exact moment she jumped in by a few seconds. Notice that "kitty Bec"(forgot name) sent the thing a few hours into the past(maybe before Dirk takes his epicly long bath…. he's going to have guests you know? lol)
But... that's just a guess. I'm not sure how distance and time is calculated when it comes to the windows, but I don't think she would be inside there for long.
-
So the receiving window is just off then? I was wondering what exactly caused it malfunction. Either moving it while it was being used or dislocating it in time (adding to the theory that Roxy is in the future)
-
Yeah. It was plugged in and then it was unplugged when Dirk got it.
Not sure why he plugged in it later on, but I'm guessing she may show up out of it shortly… or much much later after Dirk is in his session and long gone since the distance between the lab and Dirk's house may be really far. But it's on the same planet, so it could be a few hours like I said. What I'm uncertian about is the time gap between two windows rather than distance.http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=006410
" In your experience, the more significant the journey between the planes is, the wider the gap."
Could be both space and time….
Anyway, Later on, we see Roxy's Dream Self entering the Pumpkin lab earlier(the void between the two windows could be the Furthest Ring... maybe). Which makes things kinda weird from here. You can say Roxy no longer exists in whatever timeline she was in, and instead Dream Roxy takes her place when she exited the window to the pumpkin lab beforehand. -
@Cuddles:
Also, finally caught up. Now to wait like everyone else.
high five Well done! But waiting for updates, that's pretty much the worst thing about catching up since I was used to read through a shitload of pages, until the important plotpoint I was waiting for was revealed. But there's the fun of seeing other people's reactions to the updates and hearing stuff I surely wouldn't have realized on my own.
(the void between the two windows could be the Furthest Ring… maybe).
I think you've been spot on with this one!
So just for the record, this universe's Feferi is the younger equivalent of the Condecse, right? This surely explains a few things lol
Looks like the pre- and postscratch trolls have pretty much opposite personalities (or this Feferi just went through so much shit that she turned into a psycho) -
Cogratulations, Cuddles, for actually catching up, like so few I've convinced to read Homestuck have been able to do.
As for the void = furthest ring… That would fall right in line with horrorterrors appearing in the Sleuthiverse whenever the windows are turned off.
-
Horrorterrors… Crap. I totally forgot the small details of them that was mentioned in one of Rose's books. I'll have to give that reread if I can find the page(or... look at the wiki). I know the like in the furthest ring, and are probably those demonic looking things that were seen a few times before(Jade's dream upon entering her session, and outside orbit of that portion of Derse Dave and Rose were in before creating the Green Sun(?))
@tigerlilly:I think you've been spot on with this one!

DUN DUN DUN! I don't think so, but I can freely theorize that.And yup. Furthest Ring. This blows my other theories out of the window(lol), though not quite. This brings up another question. Is there windows in the Furthest Ring like there was a couple of windows in Hussie's verse? It would kinda stuck if Roxy is stuck here among the dead.
-
It's nice to be caught up y'all~
Anyway, lovin' the callback to the Felt storyline. That was one of my favorite story arcs. -
Hooray, the true post-scratch Karkat has arrived!
I can't wait untill his inevitable memo fight with pre-scratch Karkat. -
I read through all pages of this topic agian.
I wonder how much of the board knows that this is actually the Homestuck topic. Hahahah!As for the update, I'm thinking this is one of those post scratch trolls that looks almost their ancestors. So in this case… Sufferer... or a Signless with a sign? I dunno.
-
I don't have the time of day to puzzle out who anyone is or what half the things that occur are so I just wait until the tumblr experts declare what's what after consecutive days of sleuthing through whatever messages the alphabits spell out
-
Making Homestuck theories is a zen practice. You know it's pointless, but sometimes it's relaxing to think hard about nothing for a change.
Also, UU totally had sufferer cufflinks, so there's something going on there.
-
Wasn't UU's cufflinks mirrored? Like the 9 on top instead of the 6.
-
Juju! LMAO!! I'm already loving undyingUmbridge! I think I might ship him with Dirk…
-
What the fuck is going on in that screen?
Also. uu seems just as suspicious about Cal as me.
Good to see someone else that's paying attention to that thing.edit: I'm reading the wiki and clicking links actually. Is there a reason why anyone that do end up inheritining Cal not throw him away or end up ditching him. It's like he makes himself easy to keep around until there's an oppurunity for him to swicth owners.
-
I am forever shipping Dirk/Cal (or Bro/Cal). Theirs is a love that transcends
sessionstime. -
Theory: BRO is Dirk and undyingUmbridge ecto-baby due to shenanigans. I mean, look at BRO, half of his personality is Dirk's and half is undyingUmbridge's.
-
So… eh... Roxy is going to be living here until... I dunno. Until Dirk plugs the window I guess.
In the meanwhile, I hope these Exiles likevodkatea parties.http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=002805
