Pesterquest: Equius Zahhak [NO COMMENTARY] 

AWWWW THE FIRST THING HE THINKS OF WHEN HE GETS THE CHANCE TO GO ANYWHERE IS TO VISIT NEPETA

“THAT’S THE ONE OF THE REALEST FRIENDS YOU WILL EVER HOPE TO MAKE.” D’AWWWWWWWWW OMG KARKAT CARES FOR MC

This just reminds me what a sweetheart Equius is. His obedience thing/the STRENGTH thing got played up so much as a joke that it's sort of all he gets remembered for, and we also don't see him have many conversations. But we know because of his relationship with Nepeta - and now we know seeing him talk to Reader for so long - that despite his overwhelming STRENGTH he has poise and vulnerability. His reaction of "I would never kill you," offering f or Reader to come in and take a seat almost immediately, Aurthoror welcoming too. We've seen the other trolls give Reader a lot more pushback but Equius is so POLITE. I love him. Nepeta's route will have a meowrails reunion or there will be blood

I'm almost convinced the unknown guy at the end of the hallway is just Hussie T-posing on us.

ngl there is something about his sprite that’s just 👌

Man the MC better zap Nepeta to Equius' hive in her good route or I'm RIOTING.

EQUIUS WORKING UP THE NERVE TO TOUCH YOU IN FEAR OF HURTING HIS NEW FRIEND 🥺🥺🥺🥺

I'll be honest I never did like Equius' schtick of "always be obedient to the hemospectrum" and his command/be commanded thing. But looking at it now it seems like he did so to try and forge an identity for himself, and someone questioning the hemospectrum is questioning him as a person. That hit me a bit, and hopefully this route helps him get a new perspective on this. Also these kids better have a happy ending after all this. I'm saying they better not all die due to doomed timeline shit. They better live or I'm rioting. (Probably too much to hope for an "everyone lives" timeline but eh, I can dream.)

Oh yes the best homestuck character

I want to see Equius’s reaction to Bojack Horseman

t i ny g r ub eq u iu s

i never thought i would say this but... equius is babey :///

Equius' hive is like the most uncomfortable version of a homoerotic heaven

HOLY SHIT WE SEE MC TYPE IN CANON LIKE I KNOW THEY HAVE A TWITTER ACCOUNT THAT WE CAN SEE BUT STILL ITS GOOD TO HAVE IT PROVEN

I love his good route. And his sprites look beautyfull. But i am scared to wach the bad endings.

EQUIUS PESTERQUEST EQUIUS PESTERQUEST EQUIUS PESTERQUEST

I diagnose Equius with baby disease. The cure is a kiss on the head.

BABY EQUIUS IS MY EVERYTHING I LIVE FOR HIM ODIJASOIDJASOIDJAS

HERE HE IS. THE SWEATY BUFF BOI.

karkat seems to talk about you like he would the mayor! maybe theres some sort of connection

Therapist: Non broken horn equius isn't real, he can't hurt you Non broken horn equius: 24:25

all the other routes are really wild but this one just feels so genuine. I have the relatively unpopular opinion of absolutely loving equius (one of my favorite characters, but the striders take the top) and god this route was perfect.

wild how when i first read hs years ago and didn't really pay much attention to equius as a character and just thought his hemospectrum thing was weird at best and 😬 at worst, and now watching his route i'm like... holy shit. i relate so much to the "if i don't know the 'rules' for this interaction i'll panic bc then how will i know if i'm doing it 'right'", the "i follow all the rules and just forget which ones i actually agree with and which ones i just don't know how to ignore" and like. HHHHH equius baby i'm so sorry about the things i said about you when i was thirteen

I will never get over him saying "you. will. try. again." He just wanted to see his meowrail so badly :'(( my poor equius baby

a babie,,,

i think equius needs a hug

You will now begin the friendship process

I just realized how much hot equis is

This is the epilouges This is where it all ends This is where no SBURB session existed

When Karkat says “the realest friend” it made me very happy feely

Inside of you there a two people. One wants to command the other wants to be commanded,you are equius.

I have such a soft spot for Equius, mainly because he's my grandma's zodiac troll

17:33 DOES THAT MEAN NEPETA HAS A PQ ROUTE TOO???? OH MY GOD TPOSING MAN PREVENTS SPOILERS

ok I have to say I enjoyed equius' route way more than vriska's

HE TWIRLS HIS FUCKING HAIR shit thats cute

he's baby...

GAMER EQUIUS REAL

I WASN'T EXPECTING ARTHOUR TO LOOK LOWKEY ATTRACTIVE??? IT HAS TO BE THE MUSTACHE! 👀👀

Here's our precious horse boi

Ok his bad endings aren't all that bad accualy.

When the reader decides to teleport "home" my first thought was that tower. Gosh when they actually teleported there I was so fucking happy.

i love the amount of jacked horse posters on his wall. does he find them attractive? are they there simply to show off? who knows. there are like 7. one does not need that many buff horse posters

I have the idea that the troll driving that scuttlebuggy was of higher blood than Equius and that he saw a blur of the richly decorated vehicle, enough to make out that detail, before passing out. If this accident got some public attention it was still covered up. Brought into the void.

WAIT BRUUH does this mean all this time Equius had a rough voice and not soft like everyone thought

This song has existed for a long time, it was reused here.

comment section: blitz: you are my 8itch

IT'S MY BOY

EQUIUS BBY OH MY GOG. I love him suddenly ;;~;; . This was so good. AND I HECKIN FLIPPED WHEN THEY USED INDIGO HEIR. IT'S SO GOOD. AND IT ALSO HAS AN UNDERLYING CREEPINESS WITH THE HIDDEN MORSE CODE (it translators to SOS like GOSH)

So… Is the weird triple-overlay multiple-choice-past thing just a flimsy excuse for the writers to not have to commit to canon the real reason his horn is broken?

BABY

17:35 OH FUCK THAT IS DIRK THAT IS DIRK THAT IS HIS EXACT WAY OF TYPING AND HIS EXACT TONE OF VOICE FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCKFUCKFUCICUC

20:12 i read 4672 and in my head i was like whoaa,, that could relate to a page number so i went and looked, disappointed t-t

EWUIUS HAS A GAMER CHAIR AND HOOF LIGHTS EQUIUS HAS A GAMER CHAIR AND HOOF LIGHTS EQUIPUS HAS

MC THINKS OF TYZIAS'S HIVE AS HOME OH MY GOD SOBBING, ITS BEEN LIKE THREE YEARS BUT I RECOGNIZED IT IMMEDIATELY

Watch me saying "B A B Y" for 27:42 minutes at a screen with a sweaty troll

i cannot believe that this made me care about equius

i am identifying myself too much with equius should i be worried

"A low, menacing sound rumbles through him, you can feel it in your teeth. Holy shit he's terrifying." Bros a crocodile my GOD I love him

Grub Equius looks very fucking pissed for some reason????

his hair fresh as fuck god damn

i cant wait for him to meet nepeta!!

I missed him

*I FUCKING LOVE MY PATRON TROLL*

HE GOOD BOY

who's theme is that i know it ain't equius's wtf it's someone from friendsim ain't it? Or am i just going crazy?

Am I the only one that noticed the background from night at the 100dseum

m8... Are they even making more music or remixes or what? Come on! I heard that song already!

I never cared much for equius But I'll see what I think after this

Wait Equius in a rap battle

Who stole his nose

Good to see Aurthour is as much a body horror abomination as usual.
