What up I want is for someone to turn into a giant snake boner and for someone else to ride around on that giant snake boner like it's the dog dragon from the neverending story. That is the only romance related thing I care about in Homestuck.

I thought Callie needed Void shielding to prevent LE from finding her? Isn't this a really bad thing?

I think the bigger problem is that they're leaving Jade unattended, so if she wakes up before the fight the first thing she's gonna do is bring Calliope right to the Condence.

Oh God guys, John *IS* Jake's son. AKA Jake but better in every goddamn way. You know the subtle clue behind it all? John has had, in various different colors, Roxy, Karkat, Terezi and Vriska all romantically interested in him. And possibly Rose? But that's not supported anywhere.

I sometimes wonder, if Rose had been able to speak in regular words instead of horror-babble, exactly what she had to say about John's fumbling accidental proposal back in the castle. They're definitely good friends, and once upon a time people spent a lot of energy speculating about things like how John had to kiss her when she died or the wink when they briefly met in the dream bubbles. Maybe if their session had run a normal course with just the four of them and regular adventures things would've run very differently. Things pretty much worked out for the best as is. Well, at least until Roxy figures out what hate-flirting is. Alternatively she'll find it hilarious and Homestuck with break new ground with polyamory. Despite the quadrants being introduced for explicitly this purpose I don't recall if anyone's actually been in multiple romantic relationships at once yet.

Rose had asked Dave to give a message to John just before embarking on what they both assumed was a suicide mission just before Cascade, and we never saw what that message was. My headcanon is "Sorry but I am literally homo af, which stands for "as gently caress", in a slang which will come into common parlance in the year 2014, five years after today, but luckily Seer of Light means I can know these things, and it's not bending the rules of canon whatsoever, also thanks for giving me my first set of needles, peace out and say hi to Jade for me"

My guess is that Rose's view of John might run along similar lines to Dirk's view of Roxy: she admires him as a person, but just isn't attracted romantically to people of the opposite gender.

Are we seriously using Jake as our go-to example to test if people are attracted to males? It's kinda sad that that has been his most productive role in this story.

This is kind of obvious, but I haven't seen it pointed out in the thread yet so here goes: the reason Vriska and (Vriska) are pantomiming crabs while they battle is because fighting yourself is Karkat's thing. On that note, could Vriska ♠ (Vriska) be in the works?

What the poster you quoted meant was, unless I'M mistaken, in which case sorry, that Rose might be bisexual. Which is a thing. That never stopped being a thing. It's what, in theory, Dave is, and is definitely what Karkat is. Rose might have shown interest in John before, though it was muddled due to horrible monster speak and later not learning what her message actually was. The possibility that she is bisexual is not an impossible one. Thus far the only one of the humans to be straight up homosexual is Dirk, and the only one of the Trolls to be homosexual is Kanaya, for whatever that's worth as Troll society doesn't really have any standards related to that. Mostly due to how they breed. Everyone else is a wonderful rainbow of different preferences and ideas, or are ambiguous enough to leave some wiggle room.

We've got quadrants and lucky charms, we can make room for the Kinsey Scale. Although it amuses me to imagine there's some beta timeline where the split from the Alpha happened because Rose turned Kanaya down and suddenly she and all her friends are doomed to irrelevancy. I think that might be one of the deliberate uses of Paradox Space's countless dimensions, if anyone was especially invested in some relationship that didn't turn out, you can imagine that out there in the multiverse it actually did, it just wasn't how the main timeline was supposed to go - even Feferi and Eridan appeared to have reconciled in one beta timeline! Admittedly, they were then horrifically erased from existence, so that's going on, but still. Also going to note that John inherited at least some of Jake's remarked-upon attractiveness, the way he set off Roxy's boyfriend-material radar. Does Vriska still have a quasi-crush on him in this timeline? He was giving her the cold shoulder this time after what he saw of her the last time around, but I wasn't sure if that meant Vriska had given up on him too - if she hasn't, a jealous Vriska would probably be fun to see.

I just get annoyed when it seems like people generally only float the possibility of bisexuality when it's a demonstrably gay character, and almost never when it's some one demonstrably straight. Like, no one was discussing Dave's potential latent bisexuality when two versions of him were simultaneously seeing Terezi and Jade. I overreacted. My b.

Well... don't people saying that have a point though? Showing attraction to the same sex is outwardly indicative of being bisexual but showing attraction to the opposite sex is not. "Bisexual" implies you are attracted to both sexes, so showing attraction to the same sex shows that you are not straight, so you either are into the same sex or both. Showing attraction to the opposite sex shows that you either are straight or are into both, but the difference is that not being straight is a key proponent of being bisexual. So logically, it'd be easier to assume someone is bisexual if they were attracted to the same sex because it'd remove the possibility that they are straight. It's not completely indicative of anything, no, but process of elimination is process of elimination.
