Yep. He was criminally underused. Hopefully we will one day have a full adventure about the Midnight Crew, in wich the four members (Plus some of the Felt) are "playable".
We almost nearly had him as a major villain too. His B2 self became Arcagent of Derse and was given the Black Queen's ring which he used to nearly kill all of the alpha kids. For some reason Hussie seemingly forgot that he was relevant by the time Collide came around. Also, how did Roxy get the ring from him again? I can't quite remember.
It's possible that some details in the true-alpha timeline were different. Yes Droog actually was relevant, but due to the void session, what he could do would likely be short-lived, necessary as to set everything in motion. Once the session started, he likely decided the "red miles" was not so classy a power after using it. After his success in flushing Dirk out, he must have handed it back to the Condensce. Furthermore, once the session had been spurred along, the attack would serve little purpose in motivating the multiple other iterations to resurrect the trolls and their world to maintain continuity.
now i think about it the Courtyard Droll didn't die ether and hearts box cards still floating around in a horse calendar in the Furthest ring and jack is still alive last time he was mentioned hussie! this is the Epilogue that we needed
Somehow I've always heard this song as suiting the feeling of "being outplayed" in combat. Like, Diamonds Droog seems like a high-skill kinda guy with good decision-making who would make you feel overwhelmed not with speed, not with power, but just with how smoothly he always does just the right thing to set you off balance. How efficiently he sees and exploits your weaknesses, while keeping you from seeing his own. When someone outplays you like that it really muddles your thinking. It disorients you. I specifically picture the "heroes" fighting against him in some trapped environment of his own design. An entirely disorienting situation.
I love DD because wheras Jack revels in murder and English is doing it all for fun, DD just gives zero shits. He's perpetually above it all and doesn't bat an eye at the dead, and in a sense is more evil than both of them for it.
+The Fangirling Puella Magi actually, OFF came out in 2008, and was translated into english in 2011, whereas hs volume 9 was released in 2012. so its entirely possible that the person who wrote this song added OFF themes
This could refer to all three Jack's existing at once and being very overpowered. Bec Noir has first guardian powers. Spades has a powerful cybernetics and the power to beat Lord English, and Jack Noir has been possessed with the super powers from the Lil Cal JuJu.
Maybe the art is unrelated, or if not, it could symbolise him taking the place of Noir as the archagent seeing as all the other Jack's are beserk. One sane DD being better than 3 insane Noir's.
An abridged list of things the Homestuck fandom is not allowed to interact with: 1. Stairs 2. Horses 3. Nic Cage 4. Newgrounds Feel free to reply with your own suggestions
So Homestuck has finally ended, but you know what I'm upset about. The character this song is based off of is STILL ALIVE and we know NOTHING about his current state. B2 Draconian Dignitary I mean. He even had a nice part dedicated to him dealing with the Condesce and befriending Dad. And I'm upset he was just a throwaway character to Hussie.
Odd Khan All Carapacians are throwaway characters to Hussie. With how this guy got ignored and how fucking stupid Spades Slick’s death was, I kinda get the impression that we aren’t supposed to care about any characters other than the kids and living trolls.
okay i don't play undertale but the fourth wall panel in the back seems to resemble the flower you have to fight at the boss level. it's called omega flowey right
This art combined with the title of this song is simply meant to imply a special 'friendship' between condy and the dignitary. The look is one of, 'were you invited to this private party?'
EidolonOrpheus I certainly do. I grew up with Sonic Adventure DX on the Gamecube, and later Heroes. I'm fond of Unleashed, too. Mostly, I can imagine fighting Mephiles (the awesome villain in a craptastic game) to this song, or maybe an E-100 series robot.
REALLY GREAT CONTENT MY BROTHER AMAZING IM GRATEFUL FOR YOUR TIME AND DEDICATION THIS SONG HAS CHANGED MY LIFE FOR BETTER AND MADE ME IMPROVISE AS A PERSON
That seems like a crowning moment of badass for DD if he fights the Post Scratch kids. Seriously, I can picture that happening. He says this. Then Dirk's sword goes flash swinging. Jake's guns are blazing. Spoon/Fork duality combos from Jade. And Roxy being Roxy. And DD is just dodging calmly like a boss. Then he uses the ring's invisibility powers. Everyone freaks out. And DD proceeds to curbstomp until Roxy's void powers somehow gives her an edge.
well...i only know one person who has a pumkin....2 if you count time shadigans....no wait 3 becuase of the overgrowth....hmm....that's still a small party.... =(
I feel too nervous to edit my nine year old message, if it's gonna act like it'll delete it.... In a more on topic statement, unlike what's under the Read More, This is still so cool, and Diamond Droog was Still Robbed. ...a shard of Darkness lies here...
Now see here, he mutters. I don't appreciate the rabble-rousers frolicking into my private correspondence with the Condensce. Correcondensce? He spends a moment entertaining the portmanteau in his head, before having me ejected by the Brute.
"Alright, kid..." He sighs, taking a long drag from his cigarette. The room smelled of tobacco and fried electronics, not something you'd think would fit any moment. Yet, here he was, standing before you, Brute dead, Condesce watching, wiring frayed and fried by your assault on the giant Derseite. "You've made it here. You've gotten past the guards, beat my glutton-for-punishment friend to a fine, meaty pulp, and now you're standing before the only person with the keys to this whole kit and caboodle. You've made it." He sighs, taking another drag from his cigarette. But he seems less annoyed now. In fact, he gives you a sly smirk, flicking the burning butt out of his hands and opening his arms wide. "The real question is, kid; What are you going to do now?"
"Ah, not this again . . . " He would sigh. "Listen, kid. I don't have time for you - if you've come looking for trouble, I'll be more then happy to give you some later." He'd wave you off.
At 0:06 and throughout the whole song is sounds like windsheal wipers. Then again, it's suppost to be classy. Every classy song should have windsheal-wiping-sounding-instruments.
Don't listen to this with headphones if you have sensitive hearing. If sounds like putting stethoscopes into your ear, and someone scratching it. Great song, though, without them.
My good sir, that is no proper way to refer to something as classy as this song. No, you have incorrectly catagorized how classy this song is. Your attempt was admirable, but I must correct you, for if you are not, you will never learn, and you will unfortunatly, lead others to belive your erronius way of thinking. This, my good sir, is classy as all the fucks I am unable, and unwilling to give, it's just too classy to give any, you see?
i'm sort of afraid of what deuce could be like were he to replace spades. i kinda have this theory where deuce is even worse than jack, something to rival english almost, were he ever to get to power.... ....that or he'd just wear a bigass hat around like some tf2 god
