I'm certain that i've seen it said before but I want to say it again because i just keep seeing it, there is SUCH a funny overlap in the way Adventuretime and Homestuck portray expressions. Bodies and limbs too, they both have the same noodle-limb-tube-body-sphere-head formula and I'm sure that's part of the reason behind it but both of them consistently produce faces that just SEND me in a very specific way

#i might reblog later with pictures but it's just SO funny #particularly the incredulous/disbelief expressions are hilarious and so similar #also the jelly bean mouths #but idk it's mainly something in the eyes #homestuck #adventure time #“girl who's only seen homestuck looking at her second stylized story: getting big homestuck vibes”#but genuinely #they're actually really really similar in lots of ways #with the whole “apocalypse in the later 2000s to early 2010s” thing that exists simultaneously with magic #and the neon colors and the art style and the following the main character(s) from 12 or 13 to like 17 and etc etc #and using that time span specifically to comment on the process of growing up and past selves as separate people and changing relationships #which is extremely common and debatably describes all coming of age stories but is done in a specific way idk #i think i summarized it to my friend as “the main kid can use a computer and then stab it with a sword and neither is weird” or smth #but i digress #this was a tangent #(i'm making a note here)#(huge success)
