I can't get over Rose's face. She's so excited to get knee deep in trashy romance.

Oh my god Karkat, oh my god. I'm dying over here. Also I'm willing to bet that he's talking through his rear end about this kind of thing being any more common among trolls than romance novel shenanigans are applicable to the average human. I just... Oh, Karkat. This is why you're the best.

NO LISTEN TO ME posted:I can't get over Rose's face. The funny thing is, she's probably happy because she honestly wants to know more about the troll cultural stuff Karkat is trying to push on Dave. (But also because she's got a trashy romance novel.)

I'm kind of hoping Kanaya is about to call him out on this, partly because she needs more to do and partly because it would be funny coming from a character who originally sort of represented Twilight fans.

I still cannot get over that book cover. And Rose stealing the book. And...okay, just about everything from this update.

A month? This intermission is going to chronicle their journey in real time. Two years of Karkat flipping out and losing it, baby!

Two things: 1) Karkat is proposing an open relationship. Karkat wants an open relationship. I can't even finish parsing how funny that is. 2) "WOOLBEAST MATERIAL" is an absolutely sublime joke that works so hilariously well

Karkat's autistic, right? That explains his LACK OF VOLUME CONTROL, his obsession with a particular subject, rom coms, and his need to quantify and schedule stuff like this

Ok, so I was ready to make a post about how I've been reading Homestuck for ages but this update was what finally broke me on being able to keep up without explanation, but on re-reading I actually think I kind of...get it? My god, I've stared into the abyss of troll feelings for too long. [note:I have read no fanfic and have no desire for such]

They all probably have troll mental disorders, though, knowing them. Troll mental disorders that are able to be categorized into graphs, disorders too advanced for our mere human brains to comprehend.

Dave manages to put on a stoic facade when facing his own death, repeatedly, but give him five minutes with Karkat and he's practically banging on the windows for escape. No amount of irony can withstand the white-hot blowtorch of Karkat's unyielding, humiliating emotional sincerity.

Oh my god I can't breathe. The whole thing is too good. And then rose's face when she steals the book finished the job. Man.

I am very worried about what Rose is going to do with that book. Also, I stopped trying to make sense of what Karkat was suggesting about halfway through it. I choose to interpret this as a good sign.

Yeah usually Karkat's bitching about quadrants is completely hilarious to me but it crossed the line straight into weird territory this time The atmosphere was mostly salvaged by Rose snatching that book though

If you alchemise a Troll Romance book with Complacency of the Learned, who would be the listed author? Is the resulting book all about Troll-Wizards? ...god I hope so.

Somebody, anybody, please translate the title of the book.

No one can use the phrase "LOVE-HATE N-DRANGLES" and not come off like a lunatic. It can't be done. Our reaction is Dave's - confusion and derision that slowly turns into mounting horror.

Karkat unironically liking Dane Cook is the most hilarious part.

I have the biggest loving on my face, you have no idea. I was starting to zone out, but Rose fixed everything.

Man, poor Dave. If it's not his Bro burying him in plush rumps, it's Karkat setting up a schedule for a romantic triangle.

I don't understand why everyone is so confused by Karkat's explanation. I mean, it's a quadruple helical flushed red/black quadrangle interaction, simple really.

It's not actually that difficult of a concept to wrap one's head around, it's just the Troll-ese and quadrant talk combined sort of make most readers go cross-eyed. Karkat's somewhat clinical and overwrought explanation didn't help.

It isn't hard to figure out the concept, the issue is that the concept kinda quickly leads to... potential gay stuff. Which isn't even a thing for trolls, but I think Dave might be even less of a homosexual than John.
