You all are missing the BIGGEST point of the update. Namely, we are one to a few pages away from the first Bro pesterlog, and if Mom's was anything to go by, this pesterlog is going to be loving amazing.

Gabriel Pope posted:Okay, right off the bat, mysterious references to unspoken "purposes" always set off a lot of alarm bells. Even worse, though, we know what purposes universe A2 succeeded at. Way to be sinister, UU. It doesn't seem that sinister to me... A1 was the original Troll universe, which was scratched to make A2, which was the Troll universe we know and love. That universe made B1, which is the kids' universe, which was scratched to make B2, the new universe we're seeing now.

Yeah but A2 also succeeded in summoning Lord English.

Hello thread! I recently read through Homestuck and now I'm following along. Anyway, in regards to the post-scratch kids 'paving the way for the gods' I think the implication is that the 'gods' are the surviving post-scratch trolls. Karcat repeatedly mentions that they are gods to the kids' universe by virtue of creating it, and it would make perfect sense as something the post-scratch kids could do.

That'd be a pretty decent psyche-out assuming those survived the scratch. Might be that EVERYONE gets in but I think its a given that the kids are in.

Thankfully this does settle for sure that we are looking at the post scratch kids universe and then Hussie didn't fake us out by doing a prequel to Act 1 instead of the post scratch universe.

Dark Grapefruit posted:Yeah but A2 also succeeded in summoning Lord English. Many sessions have succeeded in Lord English. That is not the only thing that A2 accomplished. It also accomplished the creation of the kids, and the unique set of circumstances that led to the kids creating the Green Sun but ALSO surviving that chain of events. This is important. If UU is indeed not sinister, I'm guessing the purposes she refers to are those of Skaia itself.

I wonder if Jake is going to end up being the host for Lord English just like Doc Scratch was. Nah, that's way too obvious.

Let's just have Lord English himself erupt into this session through Jake's chest by the end of the week so we can have a round of "Okay, no way this is meaningful, too obvious, gotta be a trick." Then let's have it actually be a trick anyway because you never know with Hussie.

These are way too many blatantly obvious coincidences to just be a result of Hussie "loving with us", and it would be bad storytelling if it was just a troll. It has to be a result of the effect of Lord English somehow, the question is to what extent.

So, assuming Hussie isn't loving with us here Jade's company made these things and Jade gave them to Jake. Was the post scratch universe's Jade controlled or influenced by Lord English in some way too? And Betty Crocker Corp crushed the company controlled by LE, does that mean the cruel Baroness knows about LE and is working against him?

Well Manicured Man posted:I wonder if Jake is going to end up being the host for Lord English just like Doc Scratch was. Well, implications right now are pointing to Jake raising himself. Jade was raised by the first guardian, and so Jake, being the equivalent of Jade, is also going to be raised by the first guardian. So Jake is the first guardian of earth, and because the session was scratched, obviously the equivalent of Doc Scratch with his intentions. LOGIC!!!

To further this claim, I bring up the other kid who wasn't raised by his ectobiological parent, namely John. Poppop John is Dad's(Son's?) father in universe B2, so this claim of Jake being a First Guardian is perfectly true.

While everyone focuses on the Lord English cosplayJake posted:You have always hoped that when Jane takes over that foul conglomerate, she will right all of its unspeakable wrongs. You know she will! You believe in her, after all. I'm too busy thinking about this. Then again I GUESS it makes sense if both of Jane and Jake were to respectively become Her Imperious Condescension and Lord English.

The obvious Lord English gags are all well and good and ominous, but I'm more interested in UU's part in building the bunny. I think she's outdoing Doc Scratch here. She just basically admitted to causing the need for the Scratch in the first place, by way of arming the bunny.

JT Jag posted:These are way too many blatantly obvious coincidences to just be a result of Hussie "loving with us", and it would be bad storytelling if it was just a troll. It has to be a result of the effect of Lord English somehow, the question is to what extent. The universe has been scratched, meaning all it's constituent parts have been melted down and resorted. In this universe Jake is the kid who likes spider girls and Jane is the owner of Feferi's tiara. I'm willing to bet this means Lord English's appearance as he is in A2 is dependant upon the session, and he himself can look like anything depending upon which session succeeds in creating him at that time. Therefore the fact that Jake is wearing a Cairo overcoat, golden peg-leg-alike shoe and loves green skulls is just this session making use of this motif. This is me thinking of it like a program rather than a universe.
