Android Blues posted:Well, it would seem grammar has been subtly altered (Jane's correction is actually wrong, Jake's initial statement is correct), so this actually doesn't seem too out there! No, Jane is correct in this case: "A joint gift from me" as opposed to "A joint gift from I."

I figure Jane and Jake both talk sort of old-timey because they were raised on hardboiled detective stories and pulp adventure tales, respectively.

Gabriel Pope posted:Okay, so Dave and Bro are still the Striders. Jane's maiden name is Crocker, which is presumably the same across both sessions (Egbert being her married name in the universe we're familiar with.) So far we're consistent across universes. In the old universe Grandpa Jake was her adopted brother and presumably was also named Crocker originally, but when he ran away he took on the name of his old dog in true pulp adventurer fashion. Maybe Grandma Jade had a cool dog named English?

Maybe you can't? Back before the kernelsprite became Nannasprite, it actively evaded most of Rose's prototyping attempts.

Hmmmm, I'm actually a little curious how this is going to go. On one hand, Homestuck fans tore down Newgrounds in under fifteen minutes. On the other hand, Gaia is a shambling monstrosity of a forum that averages a million posts a day, most of them presumably terrible.

Nanna laser'd her message into it and dropped it into The Medium, and then it and John went back in time to crush Nanna with it, at which point it was placed in a safe.

I'm pretty sure it's been stated that without the final prototyping, Skaia's battlefield won't 'ripen' or 'mature' or whatever the cool kids call it these days. In a normal session there's be heart of the battlefield in which to raise the Genesis Frog, and in Kids' session there would be no Tumor. Also Bec needed to prototype to take down that meteor, so it sort of really needed to happen.

Wrist Watch posted:So what would happen if he managed to God Tier his dreamself, then God Tier his waking self since they'd both still be alive? I'm pretty sure both methods of God-Tier are mutually exclusive. For the first method your realself dies on a quest bed and stays dead while the dreamself ascends. Andrew's Tumblr mentioned that to ascend via quest slab, however, the dying self has to be the only one left, regardless of if it's a dreamself or not. Self self self. Also burning perpetually in green fire may or may not be a requirement.

Slightly unrelated, but I've only now noticed that all of the robot versions of people have blue symbols regardless of what colour the character uses. Could this possibly have any meaning at all? (probably not)
