This flash was longer, harder to actually successfully view, and better than I had imagined. What a way to end the hiatus. Now if I could stop watching it and finally get some sleep. I can't wait for the fanart to start rolling in.. Although some of the cooler artists contributed to the flash already, so we might have to wait a while to see more from them.

Thanks for the analysis you all, I certainly missed a number of details in the first watch.

I haven't had the chance to listen to the album yet, but "Hussie Hunt" has hilarious art.

Couple of quick bits:

1. loving amazing.

2. Dog Tier Jade was pretty badass.

3. Very much saddened by AR and WV. Also Karkat sadly had pretty much no screentime, although him pointing Terezi in the right direction was great.

4. I'll have to rewatch it, but the first time through I did not get any sort of feeling that Aradia (or the Derse dreamers) were actually LE agents. Aradia was probably just happy to see the humans in person at last. She didn't even want Rose to go through with the plan at first, and last time we saw her she was harping on how she had to help them out. Sure you can handwave away a lot of her comments throughout the story as "Sure, that's just what a double agent would say at that time", but I don't buy it.

E: 5. Do we still not know how PM was exiled???

Wanted to play it safe until a mod steps in to say "yes stop tagging spoilers you dorks."

Now, that that's out of the way, John and Jade just smashed through the 4th wall, yes? Remember Lord English's coat is draped over one of the walls/windows? I'm thinking that John and Jade are currently smashing through one 4th wall/window, collecting Lord English's coat along the way via, you know, flying into it and then bringing it with them when they smash the other window into the new session. This is extremely troubling.e:fb drat
Just to add to this, it seems Dog-tier Jade now has the ability to ensmallen and embiggen things, Namely, an oversized coat perhaps?

Throwing this out there.

She exiled herself due to not being able to send the package on time[?]

Or she was never really exiled and was just traveling to send the packages.

I'm most likely certain it has to do with mail and her strong beliefs on it *shrug*

In other news, I made a utility for assigning appropriate artist metadata to Homestuck music. It's pretty basic, but it may be relevant to some interests around here.

I haven't tried this out yet but this is a great idea. What does it use to identify a file? I usually download FLAC versions for archiving and then re-encode back to mp3, so I assume those encoded files wouldn't work. Unless it's just using the track name or something.

It uses the track title metadata (with special cases for Frost and Light), so it should work if that was preserved between conversions.

Dear christ, the Heart hoodie is in my favorite color! I don't even like Nepeta that much!

I am pretty curious to see what Hope/Rage are going to be. I hope Life is a white hoodie, I always liked the imagining of it as white with a silver/gold symbol.

Karkat - Knight of Blood

Gamzee - Bard of Rage
Tavros - Page of Breath
Vriska - Thief of Light
Kanaya - Sylph of Space
Equius - Heir of Void
Aradia - Maid of Time
Nepeta - Rogue of Heart
Eridan - Prince of Hope
Feferi - Witch of Life

vv Thanks for the catch. Staying up all night due to Homestuck has its drawbacks.

But hoooooly poo poo that flash was amazing. I'm glad it went up before I got up this morning, I got to watch it before I run off to work. Though now I'll be distracted at work. drat.

Anyway, I'm kind of hoping that all the God Tier hoodies get released pretty quick, if only to prevent speculations on who will go God Tier next in the comic based on what designs were released. Plus I really want to see all the other designs too.

Does Dave going god mean that he also merged with Dave Sprite? Because we don't see the change we do with Jade.
