Cant wait for the fridgestuck on yiffanny when she actually gets developed!/j Thank you for this readthrough, i've been unable to acess page 666 due to being on mobile, and i have dificulty reading normally so i would've struggled regardless
I don't know if this is an intentional detail, but Vriska says "hate" here instead of "h8". I interpret that as her taking the situation as seriously as possible, in contrast to the "extra" 8's she uses when she's emotional.
this world feels a lot more "200 years old" than "5000 years old". tech & government is basically the same, languages are basically the same, society is basically the same. they haven't even mythologized the mayor, literal governmental founder of the world yet! he's just, like... "george washington" levels of mythologized! obviously, this is due to No Worldbuilding Disorder, but... ugh
This is a stretch, but I think each of the trials Vriska faces in her session (minus the Hourglass and Feather) could reflect the tiers of Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs Tavros and Aradia (FLARP Manual)- Physiological: Realizing the physical damage she did to Tavros and Aradia and the impact of her mortal death. Spidermom and Mindfang (Mindfang’s Journal)- Safety: Coming to terms that she was in constant danger when living with Spidermom and that taking advice from Mindfang put her in danger. Doc Scratch (Cueball)- Social: Coming to terms that Scratch was a manipulative and abusive mentor who only saw her as an end to a means, convincing her to kill those around her, directly or indirectly. Dead Vriska (8-Ball)- Esteem: Accepting her other self who wanted to live a happy life and respect her for that. After completing her session, Vriska will achieve Self-actualization: Understanding who she is and what she must do.
This is being SO Homestuck it has a life of its own. And that's how things must be. Also: My dear Serket. You have no idea at all of what's coming for you, i fear.
Looks like my prediction was more right than I knew. I expected "Vriska will have to face (Vriska)", or, barring that, just "herself" (since there's not really any other way I could read the 8-ball). It turns out "(Vriska) forces Vriska to face herself".
Twitter doesn't know how to market me (Is she Vtuber brainrot or Homestuck brainrot? ¿por que no las dos?) Hi to any Ruzaders who are checking me out here btw. Recognized a few names from Ruze's chat liking the scalemate recolor on twitter and I low-key lost it.
not me replaying the "greatest show" bit with the greatest show playing so I can perfectly sync it upfor ages before I even finished watching the scene properly. Also my HC for marvus' voice is now a mix of snoop and Hugh Jackman
the spirals on the plot point look like they might be the color of the aspect for space and void the equivalent to meat and candy with there existence in and out of cannon
I am so confused about beyond canon homestuck. What are we doing what is the goal. Literally feels like I’m stuck in a Limbo. Are we just here to suffer?
i pray that salamanders were not created by a watchmaker, as their growth & development is plagued by genetic issues that came about because of evolution gone wrong. (tldr, salamanders have a huge genome that takes ages to copy itself, and many salamanders cannot even grow up completely because of this. their huge genome is the result of letting basically every virus keep its genetic code inside of the salamander's DNA. they also have giant cells because of the enormous amount of DNA inside of them, which makes it difficult for salamanders to do anything but sit around and eat!)
also, a lot of other issues in other animals that only come about due to sub-par optimization; the fact that you can see fast-reproducing species like peppered moths & bacteria evolve in real time; and also darwin was incorrect on many fronts, but there have been nearly 200 years of studies & observations made after him???
Thanks for making these videos, they are pretty much my notification for updates. -Commentary coming soon...- That was surprisingly short. It's nice to see that JaspRose isn't just an unhinged animaniac...
It seems like the sprites are real-ish. The plot point is still conjuring up everything in Vriska's trials, but the sprites... are probably "revived" through there not being much of a difference between a conjured up sprite and the original or something. (Don't ask if there are 4 nannasprites now.)
But if I were to guess, I still think Vriska has to face herself now. Every one of these has been something that symbolizes something in Vriska's mind. Flarp symbolizes her friends, the diary symolizes her upbringing, and the cue ball symbolizes fate. I can't think of anything the 8-ball would symbolize other than Vriska herself.
you must delete your browser cache, the website will download one version of the game but wont update it, so you need to delete it by removing the browser cache
RU-vid gave copyright issues for a second there. I'm not sure where, that's how fast it resolved itself. Hopefully the vid will be okay once it's public.
That literally could've happened... but it you would go against LE/Caliborn's plan, which is to control the narrative and get his such waited great battle, LE wants to be the bad guy that gets defeated in the end, his defeat creates a time loop that creates him, that's what he wants, that's why Caliborn taunts John in the credits to come fight him and that's why in the Epilogues John needs to make the decision, to create the time loop, that's why not battling LE is so important, if you do and win... you still lose in the end
I'm rather late to Homestuck as an ~Obsession~ community But honestly seeing people *Still* to this day animate random Homestuck memes and stuff, really makes me hopeful for continuing to read past Homestuck and into Homestuck^2 (Minus Dirk. Epilogue Dirk to be exact)
28:55 please tell me this means we're getting vrisrezi back. Terezi is quite literally the only one who could possibly still be waiting for vriska. She literally has her picture saved as her unlock screen im gonna cry
