He just needs a little help to get things started, maybe Karkat could dress up as Terezi and they can go on a practice hate-date and god loving dammit I've written the plot to their new universe's third romcom haven't I

Speaking of which, I just looked up Roxy Lalonde/Eridan Ampora, expecting it to be a Googlewhack. But no. There are :siren: 50 :siren: of them. Some are moirallegiance. Not all.

Oh boy is that an enigmatic expression Roxy's got right there. I can't interpret what her mouth is supposed to be doing right now, or rather I can see three different interpretations (a smirk, hanging slightly open or a slightly puzzled frown). I don't recall, is she familiar with troll relationship concepts? Maybe through Calliope? And is she cool with John getting into that? Terezi having a relationship with Gamzee was too much for Dave in the pre-retcon timeline, after all.

Roxy was raised in a troll-controlled time and pace (remember her feeding the carapacians?) so she'd be very aware of troll customs, at lest those that the Batterwitch still permitted. Roxy was also the only human she knew other than Dirk, so not much exposure to "traditional" human relationships other than on preserved video. I can totally see current Roxy being a lot more flexible than pre-meteor Dave.

That's pretty clearly a bemused smile to me, Roxy seems cool with it. And she's outright used troll terms for relationships so she's updated on troll romance.


Roxy/Eridan make's me very sad though.

It breaks my heart to say this, because I like the KQ series and was excited about the remake, but I really do hope it flops like a fish. What they did is nothing short of scandalous.

It was closed for Cascade Pause and the Megapause, which occurred between Act 6 Intermission 5 and Act 6 Act 6, but for the Gigapause I'm pretty sure the mods stopped caring.

There are no less than two important Homestuck based roleplaying sites, MSPARP and Cherubplay. If you feel the need to roleplay you can go there, and possibly come back with stories of how people tried to cyber you.

A Dave level of irony, e.g. constantly insinuating it's ironic even as it grows ever more obvious to all parties that it really isn't.

I think you're forgetting Roxy, who said she'd give that ring to the person she would marry. Anyway, I call Nannasprite for the excellent reason that she's the only old person, but the tail is gonna be a bitch. An actual Homestuck-related question: Do we know if Kanaya is still walking around with Eridan's wand-wound through her abdomen, or is the sash just a fashion statement?
