Luminous Obscurity posted:Tinkerbull demands its pound of flesh. Tinkerbull is harsh, but fair. YF-23 posted:I still think there's more to it than these two instances that will be important. Roxy's and Dirk's present could have been 411 years after 2011 with no fuss other than the arbitrary and ultimately ambiguously important figure of setting the two pairs of kids 413 years apart. Then Hussie could've avoided having to come up with an explanation like this, which if not reused for further plot elements would appear like a DEM and an asspull because of otherwise contradictory elements. This is going back a bit, but I understand what you're getting at. The explanation felt oddly specific to me, too - to be honest I forgot that there was a time difference between when Roxy and Dirk are now, and when the Exiles were in B1. Although, to be fair, an asspull excuse for the discrepancy isn't so bad when it's merely used to allow for an arbitrary and ultimately unimportant time difference of 413 years (instead of 411). But this is still pretty much the only evidence against the "uU are in the created universe" theory; if they're merely in another instance of the B universe, then that could explain the Statues of Liberty, and the meteor could arrive through any number of ways. I feel that that's a bit of a cop-out though, UU said she lived in another universe altogether, which would imply a completely different frog, not merely a different instance inside the same one. I still agree with you, though, that whole explanation UU gave left too much open. There are gonna be more B universes, for one reason or another. I suppose we'll know if UU sees the Red Miles approaching in the sky. Starmaker fucked around with this message at 15:53 on Jun 24, 2012 |

I wonder if it's actually Mars that the asteroid has landed on. It looks awfully red, but that might just be the red sunlight. If it was Mars, it might be that Dave landed there after he rode off into the sky on Unreal Air. I don't think the Empress would have liked having a bunch of jpeg artifact Statues of Liberty embedded on her new Alternia. But a Dave on Mars? I can totally see him doing some redecorating.

So good news. Unless uU's body changes its teeth size when uu is dominant, neither uu or UU can be Lord English. In this panel, you can see UU's tongue. Notice the way it sits at the base of the two visible lower teeth. For this to possible, UU must have no/extremely small bottom teeth besides the two visible ones. Much smaller than the top front row, for sure. Compare this to the lower teeth of Lord English, which are the same size as his upper ones. Furthermore, notice how UU has four teeth in-between her two large ones on top, while Lord English has five! Nine out of ten dentists agree, uU can not be Lord English! This is not a serious post.

Likely an end-of-act coming up. That means an intermission, which, as the end of the second year of travel, will be the last chance for John to have grown a terrible teenage moustache. Some people, they try to tell me that it'd be funnier if Dave does it. But Dave would do it ironically, and it's not a true dirtstache unless it's worn in sincere ignorance of its ugliness. This is the only thing about Homestuck that I have imagined and want to be true.

Act 7's supposed to be the final act IIRC, unless Hussie just dumps the kids/trolls in immediately I don't think it would make much sense to wrap things up right now. That reminds me of something that's been bugging me: The B2 kids are still at the bottom of their echeladders. At least Jane is for sure, I don't remember if we've seen the others yet, but the point is that I'm pretty sure they're notsitting at the very top while everyone who's on their way either climbed to the top of theirs already or is also God-Tier in addition to that. Doesn't look like the new kids are going to be of much use. Edit: VVVVVVV  I need to go to sleep.

I wonder how Hussie is going to end Act 6. Is another Cascade pretty much in the cards, or have we passed Homestuck's climax? I really want to see how Hussie decides to kill off the main villains, knowing that Hussie's sworn to avoid any more 1000 page battles. I'm especially interested in seeing what Hussie does with Jack; it was probably a mistake to leave him irrelevant for the past 1000 pages.

I'm especially interested in seeing what Hussie does with Jack; it was probably a mistake to leave him irrelevant for the past 1000 pages. He has commented on this: Hussie on his tumblr posted:I don’t see myself doing another animation this long for the rest of the series. Not even close, in fact. This was, in terms of cinematic gravitas, the high point of the series. It’s the conclusion to act five which all the setup demanded. It is the BIG ONE. A challenge I set out to do, for as much as any other reason, to see if I could. On the other hand, he said repeatedly that Act 6 & 7 would be markedly shorter than Act 5, but he admitted that it's entirely possible Act 6 will be as long as Act 5 if he writes it in his normal fashion (i.e. goes and does distractions whenever he wants to).

DaveKap posted:Considering he has yet to create a smooth ending, yeah, I could see him just giving up on having an ending at all. I think most people can forgive Jailbreak and Bard Quest, in all their high-literacy user-run glory as globe-spanning dramatic epics about urine and codpieces, for not having real endings. Problem Sleuth did have a good ending, however.

I take confidence from Cascade myself. It didn't actually end the story, sure, but it took an unholy tangled skein of plot and resolved almost all of it in a satisfying way. The only things left unresolved were the ultimate fate of the kids and trolls plus a few dangling plot hooks for Act 6. I guess what I'm saying is that if Hussie had decided to split Homestuck into two volumes, Cascade would have made a great ending to the first volume as a work in and of itself. If he can do that, I think he can do the same to end all of Homestuck.

If Homestuck was a movie trilogy, Cascade would be the end of the second movie, where the good guys still live to fight another day, but big-picture, the bad guys won. See: the empire strikes back. Now we're on to movie three, where the heroes have to rally and finally get a big win. I guess what I'm trying to say is, Act 7 will consist mostly of tribal teddy bears singing and dancing.

Funnily enough, my friend and I decided to celebrate the completion of building my new PC by eating chicken and waffles. Luckily, there's a diner in my area that serves the dish, so off we went to have a victory dinner. Evidently someone famous ate at that diner - famous enough that it was spray-painted on their wall. That someone? Guy Fieri. At least such an agent of the Batterwitch has good taste.

A good poster posted:There's probably some guy on ICP's payroll who monitors things like their twitter account and is very confused by the comments on their Miracles video. If there is any good that the Homestuck fandom will ever do, it is that the Miracle's video will always have something Homestuck related in the top comments, confusing actual juggalos everywhere. Also god dammit, every time I watch that video I notice something new related to Homestuck in it, even though it is probably coincidental. "Hot lava, snow, rain and fog" is clearly referencing the Kid's planets.  Edit: THE RED SUN AT THE END IS UU'S SUN.
