Ok I'm game! Tell me about ho-ing around your errand spots. Post office guy? 😏 Kroger gal and bank girl? 😺 And LITERAL HELICOPTER PILOT?? 👀

Friend!! Ok, you have got to hear about this pilot.

So last weekend I was at this community event for kids where they can climb all over emergency vehicles- fire trucks, swat trucks, ambulances, garbage trucks, so on. I was there with my niece and nephew. Anyway, one of the things the kids could check out was a helicopter. I have been RUINED by Frankie Morales and I have a certain Pavlovian response to helicopters now so I was more than happy to wait in line to get a look inside a helicopter. I figured I could at least be delusional for a minute and that would be the end of it. HOW WRONG I WAS!!

The helicopter was an air ambulance and the pilot was a medic. He was kinda short but he had on a cap, aviators, had a scruffy greying beard, and his suit was unzipped and his chest hair was chest hairing. It was glorious. He had the sleeves rolled up and tattoos on his forearms. I flirted as best I could. It was a crowded area so I didn’t have the time to really lay it on like I like to do, but it made my week anyway.

My post office guy is an older Latino with a cute accent and a steady government job and a union. I love union men. The last time I saw him he remembered me from a month ago. He was flirty. I need to find more excuses to mail things.

My Kroger girl wasn’t my type but she would flirt back with me when I flirted with her. Good times, but now she’s gone and that’s honestly fine with me.

My bank girl was probably too young for me but she was so pretty! Wherever she went, I’m certain she’s looking gorgeous. I didn’t flirt with her much because I couldn’t tell if she was into women, and above all I try to be a respectful trollop.

Serendipity should be required viewing material before anyone tries to analyze Homestuck; not only is John Cusack a universal constant, but the themes and vibes of Serendipity are so fundamentally woven into Homestuck's DNA that several of Serendipity's thesises and conversations could be lifted directly from one to the other.

In particular, the way Serendipity utilizes coincidence and circumstantially simultaneous events in order to suggest - nay, decree - that the two leads belong together, is highly reminiscent of the way Hussie uses foreshadowing, and not just for romantic couples. It's also a major window into the ultimate stance Homestuck takes with regard to romance, fate, and destiny, and also more specifically, a really good look at Karkat's own personal philosophies of romance. There's a running theme in his movies of meeting someone that perfectly matches your freak, someone you don't ever need to compromise yourself around, who brings out the best in you.

Also, some of yall need to watch a shitty romcom every once in a while and develop some emotions

Hey so

that entire section where Dave is back in his old room for the first time in like. three years ? and he’s looking at the pictures he took when he was 13 and before everything happened and he started laughing and crying and he couldn’t stop ?? that did irreversible damage to me I think. hussie when I CATCH YOU.

it’s horrifying to think about how they’re all just kids. they’re KIDS. by this point in the timeline they’re like 16 and all and I’m just horrified because my little sibling is currently 16 and it puts it into perspective for me and ???? Jesus Christ I don’t know how homestuck ends at all but if these kids don’t get a goddamn break and some peace and happiness I’m gonna lose it

" why do i want these siblings to fuck even though i know theyre siblings? is this hussies fault? "

Jake: Lmao doesn’t even mean “laughing my ass off” anymore it’s just “lmao”. She is like a brother to me

[fefairys]

funniest part of posting all these homestuck book annotation quotes is people being so surprised that hussie like… understands their own story. lmao

retcon is unironically the best part of homestuck, no contest. it makes me sad to see it constantly shat on by people.

fuck it. why not. let him be a rich asshole.

I read Hussie's author notes and they were so disappointing. He dismisses Eridan and gamzee as one-dimensional nastyboys, he claims Rose and Dave's true arc was to refuse their quests and they just needed to stop feeling guilty about it, and he says karkat's final frog didn't even matter and he was just worrying over nothing. There's so much potential clearly written in and he just throws it all away bc lol. Your analysis is so much more nuanced has so much more thought put into it both with regards to who these characters are as people and the role they serve in the plot. I'd take your ideas over what hussie thinks is canon any day of the week.

this is super funny to me because i absolutely take what hussie says into account like all the time HAHAHA

Like genuinely I go back to their formspring/tumblr/forum/book notes all the time to see how on-track i am with my analyses. If you like whatever bullshit i'm talking about, then you like hussie's writing!

This is probably swinging a bat at a hornet's nest but the whole "bigotry as a joke or for trolling is still bigotry" thing also needs to be applied to creators and artists. Like you can't excuse someone being an absolute asshole and saying awful shit just because they made a show or comic that you like.

I know there's a popular homestuck headcanon that suggests Mindfang never wrote her journal, that she was just a fanfiction author but there is a bigger brain move to play here.

The big brain headcanon is that she was very much a pirate, a corsair. Why would a noblewoman go to the seas? She wanted freedom. Because people forget she was Scratch's first student. She was Scratch's first experiment, the way he acts to Vriska, Terezi and Rose he tried with her first. He knew anything he had done to her wouldn't matter in the grand scheme, she was never meant to matter, she was only here to be a stepping stone for his communications with Vriska.

Doc Scratch penned things in about her story, Exaggerating things, even half-truths about some. About what? About her relationships. Her journal is what made Vriska throw the identities of their ancestors onto her friends. The things with Tav, Kanaya, Terezi and Eridan would not be there hadn't she tried to act out her ancestor's legacy.

Scratch did this because Vriska wouldn't have listened to him but who did she listen to? The words of her ancestor.
