Eh I'd be more impressed if they actually put some thought into it and did unique avatars. I know when I go on retarded avatar-buying sprees (I really can't afford it) I keep it fresh.

Mazerunner posted:Not to get all ~shippy~ on yall, but does anyone think there might be "somefin" between Meenah and Aranea? Not kissy-times perhaps, but moirails maybe? I guess it's cuz of how Sollux adopted Feferi's fishpuns, and also in general Aranea seems to be all about calming Meenah down and such. I dunno? There is definitely something going on there, they are extremely comfortable in each other's personal spaces. Stuff like Aranea being able to grab Meenah's 2x3dent without getting stabbed and Meenah grabbing Aranea from behind, you don't do stuff like that with someone who is not a good friend at least. Anyway, as said before: Meenah is rapidly becoming an awesome character. As much as I like Aranea's long winded bullshit I'm glad that it looks like we will be getting the short version this time.

I can't wait to hear Meenah's version of why the A1 trolls scratched. We already know what happened in one of Aranea's plot dumps a while back, so hearing Meenah's take should be amazing. Hopefully she'll drop fish puns like crazy and randomly insult members of her team. Also, I hope there's a reaction from Meenah that derails the discussion for a bit when she hears about the A2 troll universe and all the poo poo that happened, such as B1 Jack Noir's rampage.

I don't know how close, but I could buy that there is a romantic vibe between them. They could also just be good friends.

The funny part is that the quadrants being incomprehensible to humans is total bullshit; people seize onto the idea all too easily. Just look at tumblr  Seriously though the shipping quadrants are something that's going to outlast Homestuck by a very long parcel of time, judging by certain friends of mine who I probably should not have introduced to the thing.

Silva posted:No no no, let's not get into any shipping here, even the pale stuff could be a slippery slope. Ehhh, this doesn't really count as shipping, at least not as the bad sort. It just gets ridiculous when people take the smallest thing that could possibly be interpreted as a hint in the direction of ~*~romance~*~ and blow it all out of proportion and get invested in the idea. This is just people going "Huh, they seem to really like each other, could be more than just friends?" and leaving it at that. Hell, tumblr is probably overflowing with AraneaXMeenah porn at this point. :P

murder all posters posted:I always thought that was the joke, the quadrants all being things that are pretty common in normal people relationships. That's how I always saw it, poking fun at shippers' tendency to look at ordinary platonic relationships between characters and interpret them as being romantically involved.

Dante Basco reading Homestuck finally pays off: http://rufiozuko.tumblr.com/post/24055423803/dave-talkin-to-jade-sh-t-was-funny-just-felt I haven't listened to it yet, since I'm at work, but it's apparently the guy who played Rufio and Zuko (who, as you probably know, has been reading Homestuck) voice-acting Dave in a conversation with Jade, for funsies.

There's gotta be a reason why ghost-splinter Dirk is still hanging around for all this. I mean, aside from it being funny to annoy Jake. Like, later on Real Dirk will know this stuff and suddenly we don't understand anything about the Prince of Heart again.

Can Kanaya see brain ghost Dirk? She's looking over that way. Or is she just scopin Aranea?

I can't think of a reason why she would...he's not actually there, just in Jake's mind, and Kanaya has no brain powers.

And given Kanaya's past attractions, the latter seems rather likely.

So yeah, just got reminded of Aranea's Signless pendant by this last page. I wonder if she knows Nubbyshouts is the same guy she's memorializing with her jewelry!

I just cant watch these sorts of things, not to say they do not do a good job. I have built up these characters voices in my head for years and I can`t quite explain what they sound like they just sound so wrong as anything else. The closest I have heard was that early Roxy voice that sounded like a drunk Harley Quinn. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=geBelUzydaA But yeesh that Dirk just does not sound right.
