Honestly I'm not surprised that stairs keep being a thing that happens, because someone forgot to install handrails at the meteor facility.

How can they be expected to exercise proper stair safety without this basic safety measure? Someone get Prospitian OSHA on the phone FFS

I opened the log immediately after the page loaded so that I wouldn't fall behind the flash reading it, so I gypped myself out of a wicked psycheout.

Anyone who didn't wait for the gif to finish it's full animation regardless of knowing or not is not getting the full Homestuck experience. :colbert:

But seriously this conversation will probably be one of the best in the comic.

Or alternately they will exchange brief pleasantries as Meenah walks by. And then the act intermission ends.

You know, this is one of those times that I feel like we should take a moment and count the amount of effort Hussie puts into his references.

First we've got Rose falling down the stairs. Not only is falling down the stairs a thing, but we've seen that set of stairs and that pose before.



...He just flipped it, turnwise. Notice also that both images have honks coming from off screen, and how Sollux's white and black shoes makes it look like he lost one.

Plus you could probably finagle a reference to leaving a shoe behind on the stairs as a Cinderella thing, to go with all the other fairy tale references.


Then we have the SB&HJ stuff.
http://www.mspaintadventures.com/sweetbroandhellajeff/?cid=035.jpg

- A date.
- Misspellings turned into drunken slurring.
- The 'date' is missing a shoe.
- Subway restaurant to subway-like tunnel.
- A vent shaft
- 'weird stonk' turned into 'weird honk', which is itself a callback to that time a SB&HJ comic predicted a combination clown / cloud.

Anything I'm forgetting?

I right-clicked the image out of curiosity to see if it was even a flash, the way it was "loading".

...as it was at about 94%.

In retrospect, it would have been funnier* if I had actually given up on 99% and waited until morning where I would turn on my computer to load up last night's updates and then discovered the horrible, awful truth.

I did have a feeling that there would be another psyche, and the curtains would close right after the flash loaded. Turns out I was...half right?

I thought it was going to freeze at 99%, but the pesterlog and the spoiler warning alerted me something was up before anything else.

That's how you get tinnitus

The spoiler warning only made me think it was going to be "PSYCHE we're actually going to someone else", especially with how the previous page made such a big deal of stating explicitly what the scene change was going to be. I was like ":smug: haha okay this is pretty obvious but I'll play along and not open it until- oh WHAT THE gently caress"

It's going to include, for the first time in Homestuck, actual voice acting.

It will consist of Vriska inhaling, preparing to speak before getting obliterated.
