ok so earlier when i was taking a nap i started thinking about rosemaries for the first time in a while (idk a homestuck lately) and this lil scenario popped up in my mind

so its some kinda royalty au cuz that stuff is nice and gay

theres a troll kingdom and a human kingdom.

kanaya is currently Queen of the troll kingdom, but its a bit more complicated than that. basically i was thinking the peixes were the royal family for a while before the events of the "story" (theres no story just my mind thinking gay thoughts) and they were kinda mean and evil. i mean, the condesce was at least. feferi was just the baby princess who didnt have a say in anything cuz she was like. a baby.

so the signless, a random orphan who gets adopted by minor noble dolorosa, starts preaching against them and eventually gains a massive following and things happen and they manage to overthrow the peixes and gain power.

everyone loves the new management! except most of the nobles cuz theyre losing their privileges so they assassinate the signless. rip.

also i was thinking dolorosa adopts signless pretty young -> dolorosa after a while has baby kanaya (and maybe also porrim?) -> signless has baby karkat -> kan and kar are about the same age so they grow up as siblings and its cute.

so yea, signless dies, dolorosa probably dies from old age or smth idk, if porrim is there i guess she just doesnt want the hassle and joins a nunnery or some shit, kanaya would like karkat to be king cuz hes got the right qualities for it but since he's the signless' son theyre worried it might put him in danger and he doesnt want to either way cuz he hates himself yada yada usual karkat stuff.

so kanaya is Queen. now, human kingdom

i was thinking, bro is King and mom is Queen. its a loveless marriage cuz. yknow. ofc it is. but its fine bc when bro isnt being horrible and when mom isnt completely wasted theyre bros, they dont mind that marriage is fake.

bro is a controlling king whos shit to his kids, mom is just. not there. shes usually in her chambers drinking.

so we have dirk, dave, rose and roxy as princes and princesses

human kingdom has been having tension with troll kingdom bc the former queen was kinda shit and evil and mean, but since management changed theyre willing to turn over a new leaf and make peace. and how to royals do that? political marriages babeyyy.

so bro decides to send one of his kids to troll kingdom to court the new royals, only question is which one?

im thinking dirk is being groomed by bro to be the next king so hes busy, cant go marry randos.

dave joined a knight order to get away from bro, which results in him giving up his lineage maybe? which pissed bro off but since dave is doing Masculine Knight Stuff he allowed it

roxy is uuuh.... maybe roxy is just kinda too unpredictable to trust with sending to another country for such an important mission? like one day she was like "im gonna go horse riding or smth" and bro ofc was like "yes. horse riding. beautiful. go ahead." and then she comes home with a random peasant girl named calliope and is like "this is my new gf" and bro is seething but mom thought it was hilarious "lmaooo thats great kid dw about bro he sucks ya got my blessing" so he didnt do shit about it

so that leaves rose!

so rose is sent to the troll kingdom (dave comes with as her knight bodyguard) to be engaged to karkat the prince, cuz heteroormativity, but its obvious from the start that while theyre civil w each other, neither of them is into the whole thing.

and then rose meets the queen and is like "woah whos that hottie" and karkat meets dave and is like "woah hes cute" and gay ensues

#rosemary #davekat #callieroxy #homestuck #i cant write unfortunately #i cant even read #i just want the rest of this story to get beamed into my brain one day #royalty au

So I recently watched dirk gently for the first time, and I really love the rowdy 3, Martin in particular. Can you maybe do a Martin x reader?

Aaaaahhh how did you find out about my undying love for Martin?? Tbh I wrote that one fic for myself I didn’t think anyone would ever read it. Okay I don’t ~technically~ write for Dirk Gently but I’ll write it anyway because I’ve sold my soul to the rowdy 3

Waking up in a beat up van, surrounded by four intimidating men? Yep, this was how you were going to die.

“Ha! I told you they weren’t dead!” The smallest of the four grabbed $10, presumably bet money, off the dash. “What’s up, bro? I’m Vogel.”

“Hi…” You said hesitantly.

Vogel introduced the rest of the men surrounding you as Gripps, Cross (the one who lost the bet) and Martin. Martin seemed to be the least personable of the group. As soon as he was sure you were awake and unhurt, he fixated himself in the driver's seat without saying a word.

“So, why am I in your sketchy van, Vogel?”

“You were in the road, boss. We almost ran you over! Martin’s the one who made us take you in. Make sure you were okay or whatever.” Vogel explained.

“You got a nasty bump on your head, so you probably got a concussion. And your legs was all cut up from the gravel. We ain’t doctors, though, so we just slapped some band aids on there.” Gripps continued.

You shakily managed to sit up against the side of the van, which you only just noticed was moving. It wasn’t a situation you were hoping to find yourself in today but, considering you could have been roadkill if it weren’t for these guys, you decided it was probably not the worst thing to happen. You groaned as you rubbed the bump on your head. You had no idea where you got it. Last thing you remember was walking to the library.

“You want some advil, dog?” Cross asked.

You gently nodded your head, careful not to disturb the aching that was already there. Cross handed you a bottle of painkillers and a bottle of water. You quickly downed them and then took a moment to look around the van. It was barren except for four metal bats rolling around in the back. You also saw a small bag that held first aid supplies.

“Do you… have any food?” You asked cautiously. The baseball bats brought back your nerves a bit. Your head shot to Martin when you heard him let out a soft chuckle. Cross also looked like he was holding back a laugh. “Oh my god are you gonna eat me?!”

The three boys in the back burst out laughing. You caught a glimpse of Martin smirking in the mirror.

“No!! Chill, boss, we’re not gonna eat you! We just don’t eat like you do. We’re kinda like vampires-” Vogel started.

“What??”

“Jesus christ, Vogel. Gripps, you take the wheel. The rest of you, go away I’ll explain to them.” Martin sighed as he pulled the van over. Gripps replaced him in the driver’s seat as Vogel and Cross squished together in the front seat. You pressed further into the wall as Martin crouched down in front of you. “Look, uh… What’s your name?”

“Y/n.”

“Y/n, we’re not like you. We’re part of a… project that brings together people who are different. And all these people have a part in the interconnectedness of all things. We are holistic vampires. We feed off of energy. It’s better for us to feed off of people who are in pain, or very stressed.”

“Yeah, that’s why we’re going to see Dirk!” Gripps cheered.

“Right. That little dude is just an anxiety generator. It's great. The reason you’re still in this van, Y/n, is because everything is connected. The person who hit you over the head? Her name is Bart. She’s a holistic assassin and for whatever reason, her senses told her to knock you out and leave you in the road for us to find. Which we did.” Martin finished explaining.

“How did she know another car wouldn’t come run me over?” You questioned.

“She didn’t.”

“That’s reassuring.”

“Listen, Y/n,” he warned, “You’re gonna have to start calming down. Otherwise…” Martin leaned in to you and gently bit the tip of your ear. “You’re starting to smell really good,” he whispered in your ear.

He pulled away from you as the van screeched to a halt and Gripps announced that we were here. Martin stood up and looked down at your bright red face. He smiled and extended a hand for you to grab. You refused to make eye contact as you grabbed his hand and hauled yourself up. The other three hopped into the back of the van to grab their bats, splitting apart you and Martin.

“Woah, what happened, boss? You’re all red! Do you have a fever?” Vogel innocently pressed his hand to your head.

You gingerly removed his hand from your head. “I’m fine, Vogel. Thanks, though.”

Cross flung open the back doors of the van and jumped out, followed by Gripps and Vogel. Martin leaned into the front of the van and pulled a crowbar out from under the passenger seat. He weighed it in his hands before offering it to you.

“What’s this for?” You asked as you grabbed it.

“We’re about to have some fun, baby.”

This john crocker, jade english au is so intriguing, can you tell more about it? :D

*inhale*

FIRST OF ALL, This wonderous AU idea was made (and is currently being extended upon) by the spontaniously genuis @plugnuts !!! Very near and dear and near to my heart of hearts, the AU isn't quite to an extended fleshed out world with everything figured out yet but what there is so far is amazing. I can tell you right now you will not be disappointed.

Okay, now to the actual AU: it's john and jade crocker being raised by the Condy, essentially your classic Alpha timeline ponderings about how the two of them must've lived with her. But- what's this! This ain't yo classic oldies times yonder in the good mid 1900's - oh no, this one is a bit more modern to our tastes. Jade and John are raised under the Condy as normal, but in a more of a modern era; Jade still cunningly revealing some of the Betty Crocker's secrets in her childhood while oblivious John doesn't quite get what's wrong yet. Seems just like your classic time-moved idea.

Jade runs away first. Her discoveries of the Imperious Condescension and her childhood have her looking for a way out, and she takes it. John is met with an empty space in his heart where his sister used to stand beside him, and everything in his life turns as he starts to realize that something is going on.

We haven't fleshed this part of the AU out yet, but I'm gonna say it's assumed Jade grows up outside of the Condy's reach as she discovers more and is led to the island, while John grows up with the Condy's standing behind him, missing his sister horribly and realizing there are pieces of the puzzle he must pick up from what Jade left behind if he ever hopes to find her. Jade and John establish themselves outside of Condy, John growing and learning more about her and becoming distant (but he still needs her close - he needs her technology, her insight, her connections if he wants a chance to find Jade's trail) as he becomes the established (yet still growing) actor and Comedian he grew to be normally.

John Crocker's life is turned one day, though, as he gets a call from his mother - Betty wants him to care for a baby orphan. Actually, John Crocker has been so invested in finding Jade he doesn't realize that the baby orphan is no longer a baby - but a young miss Jane Crocker, helpfully taken under a (suspicipusly invested) mother Crocker and raised on the sidelines. Condy wants John to take Jane now, though, and John obliges only after he makes her promise to help aid him in his investigation. A Jane Crocker is added to the family, and John has to now stumble in his life discovering deep and dark secrets, connections to Jade that lead to dead ends, and taking care of his new daughter whom calling him Dad once sends him into a midlife crisis, prompting him to call a good friend Dave Strider - woah, wait, what??? Well this is a more modern AU folks! By this time, John has been searching for his own connections enough that he's got a couple of aquantances - Dave Strider, growing popular director, and Rose Lalonde, and ever esteemed writer of a famous book series John for the life of him cannot read without having to hug and hold Jane close five times after. But the more John runs into dead ends, the more he loses hope - Jade's trails are running few and cold, and he has no where near enough information for him to figure out where she has gone.

Meanwhile, our little Jane Crocker is living her life under normal circumstances - going to school, being generally parented by her Dad (who seems to be growing sadder, which she wishes she could help with) and making friends; internet friends, to be exact. She has just a few, and there is a very interesting boy whom has a very interesting life - a mother who forbids him contact to communicate to the outside world, living on an island and being generally carefree as a young esteemed boy under the guise of his mother's happy guiding touch-

The boy is Jake English.

Jane and Jake happen to make a few dots connect, of which I would like to personally think went something like

GG: HOLY SHIT YOU ARE MY COUSIN!!!!

GT: HOLY BOLLUCKS WE ARE COUSINS!!!

And thus, Crocker meets English. Now they can be happily reunited!!!

Or, er, no, actually. See, Jake knows of his mother's rules, and heard all about the Condy's terrible plans and secrets (the pg ones that wouldn't give him nightmares and would also just make him assume she is the Bad Guy tm). Jake understands it took a long time for Jade to work to where she is now, and reveiling that information to John, who is still in contact if estranged from the Condy, would just ruin it. Jade's happy, and Jake wants his mother to remain happy. Jane, understandably, agrees to keep the secret. But it hurts her inside every day to watch as her father grows less hopeless. She wants to tell him, but Jake's promise and Jade's happiness weigh on her, and she isn't sure if the weight of bearing breaking those to tell her father she found his sister would be worth it. She wants her Dad to be happy, but that'd mean compromising the safety and happiness of Jake and Jade's own.

And, after all, she can't be too careful while that Betty Crocker lingers around. Who knows what could happen within the next few years? Will Jane be able to keep Jake and Jade safe while also keeping her father happy?? Will John ever find Jade and figure out the Condy's secrets??? How do Rose and Dave figure into this?? How do Dirk and Roxy figure into it all?!?!? Will we EVER get that happy ending?!??!?!? Will we EVER KNOW?!??!?!?!

Well, you'll have to follow @plugnuts to find out. ;)

"sHUT YOUR, fUCKING MOUTH"

Hal immediately stopped talking, turning to him. He thinks back to what Dirk had told him about Tavros all those weeks ago, and the picture he painted of Tavros definitely wasn't this. But, over time he's found that this, in fact, is how Tavros is.

"Excuse me?" He asked the troll, raising an eyebrow "I'm speaking factually"

"nO, uH, iTS WRONG. yOU'RE WRONG, bITCH." Tav began, his stutter almost making it sound childish, making Hal stifle a laugh "sNAKES ARE, vERY MUCH BABIES AND NOT, rUDE!"

"How would you know?" Hal questioned curiously, making Tavros grin, blank eyes suddenly filled with excitement. Was this his plan all along?

"i UH, cAN TALK TO ANIMALS. sINCE IM A UH, bRONZE?" Hal cocked his head, putting a finger under his own chin

"Is that so? Prove it."

Tavros nodded, and within a few minutes, a small garden snake began to crawl up his leg, something expected of sitting on the ground in a garden, But Hal chalked it up to well, Tavros called him over. This was confirmed when Tavros picked him up and held him to his face

"hEY THERE. wHATS YOUR NAME?"

"That's pretty childi--"

"hIS NAME IS, lEAF. hE SAYS UH, iTS BECAUSE HE LIKES, lEAVES THE MOST."

Hal blinked a bit, surprised. He could brush it off as him simply having a pet snake he wasn't aware of, but something about him told Hal he wouldn't lie. So, he watched as the snake slithered around Tavros' shoulders, even going up the back of his head.

"He's--"

"i KNOW," Tavros cut him off, letting the snake go around his horn, smiling as he did so. Hal leaned back, supporting himself with his hands as he watched "Huh. Guess I was wrong." He said, finally admitting defeat. He'd usually put up a fight about being right, but Tav looked so happy, he couldn't do it.

Soon, the troll held his hand to the snake, then reached his hand out to Hal, offering him the snake. This startled Hal, hey, he wasn't expecting it!

"Woah, hey,"

"hE WANTS TO, sAY HI!" Tav said happily, Hal gulping as he watched, Jumping when he saw the snake slither closer. This in return spooked the snake, making him flail before falling to the ground, slithering away as Tav began patting the ground to find him.

"Sorry, Tav, Didn't mean to scare him away!" Hal immediately began apologizing, even if it was out of character for him, he felt the need to. Tavros just smiled up to him, leaning on his side slightly to get comfortable again "iTS FINE! yOU WERE, uH, sCARED. nO HARD FEELINGS! dID HE BITE YOU OR ANYTHING, oR ARE YOU JUST SPOOKED?"

Suddenly, Hal got an idea, smirking slightly. "Actually, yeah...on my hand" he said, holding it up to show him the nonexistent bite mark "You might have to kiss it better."

"tHAT WON'T WORK, tO HEAL--"

"Not the point." Hal said, smirking more as Tavros took his hand in his own clawed hand, and kissed it.

"aNYWHERE ELSE?" he asked, raising an eyebrow as he smiled a bit

"Yep." Hal pointed to his lips, and within monents, Tavros' lips were on the Almost-Human Androids, planning on kissing them till they hurt.

Then, he'd plan to kiss that better.

Boots Reads Homestuck Epilogue(s) Part 12 - Candy Page 18

==>

Time to see what all the fuss was about Page 18. We’re with Jane... that might not be good. Especially given Lollipop proximity.

Jane scoffing at troll genocide again. :(

Gamzee seems more woke than Jane here.

GAMZEE: sO yOu SaYiN yOu NeEd DiFfErEnT sHoEs FoR yOuR hUmAn DiCkS aNd WhAt NoT?

Pfffff

Jane narrows her eyes at the disingenuous buffoon.

I dunno, he sounds like he’s being pretty goddamn ingenuous right now.

It’s not the first time they’ve had this conversation? Are they black with each other or something??

What’s more likely is he’s attempting to get a rise from her. To get her a little hotter under the collar. To put her in a certain mood.

Oh my gosh she’s genuinely black for him, hahahahah

GAMZEE: AnD AlL I EvEr bEeN TrYiN To dO Is gEt yOu rIgHt tOo, WiTh mOrAlS AnD GoOdNeSs, AlL fIlLeD uP iNsIdE yOu As TiGhT aS yOuR tAsTy HoE bAlLoOnS aRe WiTh HuMaN mOo JuIcE.

Jesus christ that’s not the kind of metaphor i want to be hearing from canon

or anyone for that matter

JANE: No! I’d rather die than touch your disgusting clown baton ever again.

....yyyeah, context is showing she’s PROBABLY super Black into this. Still, pretty jarring to see a clear consensual “NO” right in the middle of things.

Quit calling her a dairy queen!!! D: D: D:

Oh god they named the baby Tavros.

Alright, there’s some grade A discomfort in this scene, which I’m enjoying, really. I can see why they singled out page 18. I could traumatize some people with some of these paragraphs out of context.

HOO HOO HOO, THIS LITTLE PIGGY WENT TO THE DARK CARNIVAL!!!

Eeeeuugh

JAKE: Anyway whats up with you? Hows life with davekat going? JADE: oh its great! im really glad i just went for it JADE: all of us together... it really is the best of every world

God damnit Jade why are you obliviously torturing them????????

You could’ve been REALLY GOOD for them both if you just FUCKING LISTENED TO THEM AND RESPECTED THEM INSTEAD OF SITTING ON THEM.

JADE: theres no way me and dave could have a regular baby together because im... JAKE: Whats wrong? JADE: well lets just say that after all the sburb stuff its done some things to my body JADE: like merging with bec mostly

Oh my FUCKING GOD please don’t canonize this. This didn’t need to be spelled out so-- D:

jesus

D: D: D:

This... is actually making my stomach roil again????

not because id object to-- i mean, it’s one thing to deal with

FAN SCENARIOS

ISOLATED divergences from canon where she has to deal with that and its kind of hilarious, but can be safely ignored when it comes to her character arc as a whole

but once its CANON???????? D: D: D:

suddenly you can’t IGNORE the full import when you’re done with, like, an RP or something, of the psychological struggle she would be forced to deal with given an abnormal biological situation. Instead of thinking “Oh, that could be pretty painful to deal with! Let’s explore it temporarily for fun” it becomes “Oh, that would be painful to deal with and you have to think about her having to deal with all the complications of that whenever you hear about her LITERALLY FOREVER.” D:

andrew i know you couldnt resist because of how funny and practically-xenoprogressive it was but whyyyyyyyyy did you have to canonize that WHYYYY

Now instead of a fun joke thought it also has to be SAD FOREVER

AAAAAAAA D’:

i dont know why this would be the line thats crossed to upset me

Rose surrogate?

JADE: no jake, dave wouldnt be the father in this scenario!

Pffffff. Andrew’s just diving RIGHT into the, er, doggy fanfics here. I should... TRY to lighten up about this. Try. D:

(...wait, shit. Knowing my friend, THIS whole bit is why they alluded to this page. God damnit.)

[[ EDIT: askshenhibiki said:

Now that you read Candy 18, flash back to Meat when Roxy is talking about gender... and look at Jade's reaction looking at "where her hands rest on her lap". Yes, Meat hinted at that "mix" too.

Ah, let’s see...

ROXY: and so i got to thinking ROXY: what even is gender ROXY: amirite lol? JADE: oh yeah JADE: that makes sense i guess........

Jade looks at where her hands are folded in her lap. Bites her lip. She has her own concerns about this, her own thoughts. Reasonable thoughts, I’d say. But I’ll refrain from any further comment. I’m staying away from this subject, from now on.

...yeah, guess Dirk at least had the decency not to spring all that on us before Jade got the opportunity to do it honestly. ]]

Guh, back to Jake suffering in his sad, trapped scenario. I hope THAT gets at least resolved by the end of this. Someone save Jake from this, because it looks like he’s not really that capable of saving himself?

==>

Dammit, Jade, I’m cringing at these descriptions of your intrusion.

Oh wow, John went for the mustache. Guess we knew that from, like, his stuffed statue oldself?

Jade doesn’t pick up on the obvious subtext in the conversation, however, because she’s been willfully undermining the subtext in her own personal life for nearly a year now.

D: D: D:

Seriously, Jade, how is what YOU’RE doing any better than what you were frustrated at seeing THEM doing, avoiding the real feelings and truth of anything even if it was conspicuously on body-language display?

KARKAT: THE NEW ADMINISTRATION IS CRACKING DOWN ON CERTAIN KINDS OF INTERSPECIES ADOPTION LAWS.

It’s like Andrew wants us deprived of even a happy imagined future for Earth C on top of everything else!!! What the hell! >:(

Is this about politics? Is Andrew just venting his anger that the Orange Guy is going to get away with ruining everything forever?? Because as understandable as that is, he could at least give us some imaginary happyfutures to look forward to.

Reading on... Hm, yet another intentionally-misused fridging reference.

KARKAT: HIS RELATIONSHIP IS A FLAMING WRECK OF AN INTERSTELLAR WARSHIP HURTLING TOWARDS THE PLANET AT TERMINAL VELOCITY WITH THE ENTIRE CREW BRUTALLY SLAUGHTERED UPON REENTRY, SHOVED STRAIGHT DOWN THE CHAGRIN TUNNEL AND THEN IMMEDIATELY SHAT OUT THE OTHER SIDE, THUS FLOODING THE ENTIRE FUCKING NEIGHBORHOOD WHEN IT CLOGS UP THE LOAD GAPER.

Yep, that triangle’s fucked. Wonder if the conversation’s going to transition to the CURRENT triangle’s problems...

...yeah, John using the R word there isn’t far from the fucking truth from the looks of things.

JADE: maybe that would work for a few days, but one thing i learned from dating around a lot in my youth is that no ones going to leave a bad relationship until its THEIR idea to leave

She takes in a shaky breath and shuts her eyes. Her hair spills around her face when she leans forward to put her chin on her knees. Dave and Karkat exchange a look that is equal parts confused, miserable, and desperate.

Oh SHIT. Is JADE going to be the one to finally vocalize about the problems here???

Something else comes hurtling out of the hole in the sky, too fast for Jade to catch. It hits the ground with a clap of green lightning. The collision sends a geyser of dirt, rock, and vapor into the air. Dave flash-steps to shield Karkat. Jade doesn’t move, taking the brunt of the explosion face on, using her abilities to warp the energy around her so that she’s a mote at the center of the storm. When the dust clears, she’s the first to jump in the crater, trailing smoke behind her.

There’s a body at the center of it. The torso is bloody, tangled, and curled into a fetal position. Its shoes are missing, but otherwise the outfit is quite familiar to her: it’s a dead ringer for her old Witch of Space uniform. Jade touches the body with the toe of her shoe, and then gasps when it rolls over to reveal its face.

JADE: its... JADE: ME???

Okay what the FUCK. It sounds like there’s going to be some context for that postscript after all. Something to bridge the gap between when that 16-yo Jade falls into the singularity and when Aradia goes off with her through a wormhole

I’m going to guess up front that this happens BEFORE the postscript... this younger version of Jade fell into the black hole and came out in THIS alternate timeline, possibly rather changed by the experience. But then again, the way the sky opened up... actually, couldn’t that be just a “natural” manifestation of the black hole abilities encouraged by Calliope or done by the singularity alone, followed by later in the Postscript this Jade actually getting control of it??

And... reading on, from the sound of it, her eyes aren’t black yet, either. Sounds like that’s to come, before the postscript. Question being, is it alt!Callie black eyes, or some black-hole-powers visual manifestation? Wait, never mind, I misread; this teenage Jade-corpse has NOT opened their eyes yet, so they couldn’t possibly tell, and the stuff about them “shaking” was about the adult Jade standing over her. Never mind. Let’s see which timeframe this Jade came from.

Also STOP TRAUMATIZING ADULT JADE ON SCREEN ITS NOT OKAY IM SICK OF IT ANDREW

==>

Page 20...

Stop letting babby not!Vriska bully babby not!Tavros.

Hm... same stupid tooth poison? No, Jade didn’t get hit with a tooth... so it’s more getting hit with shards of spacetime and spiraling down a black hole. Also whatever alt!Callie did to just barely keep her alive.

Hm, so the Heart stuff falls apart if you’re too separated from the mass-whole at Light’s center? That’s certainly a hypothesis at least.

ROXY: sounds like its time for another funeral lmao

ROXY WAKE THE FUCK UP AND STOP BEING A VAGUELY ROXY-LOOKING LMAO-ZOMBIE. WHERE THE FUCK DID REAL ROXY GO.

And where the fuck is Calliope anyway, she’s just being left in the dust and nobody’s even talked to her from the looks of it.

Hm, cut apart by political differences, this group...?

ROXY: woah ok karkat i get ur all fired up about politics and stuff but lay off gamz ok

ROXY WHO REPLACED YOUR FUCKING BRAIN WITH A BLOCK OF CHEESE

ROXY YOU’RE MY FAVORITE CHARACTER PLEASE GIVE US AN EXPLANATION FOR WHY YOU’RE ACTING NOTHING LIKE THE COOL SMART PERSON WE READ ABOUT.

JADE: dave what the FUCK did you say to him downstairs?

Oh my god you asshole don’t blame DAVE for this >:(

ROXY: this time next week well corpse party like its the end of the world!

I don’t want to think this has anything to do with Aradia, but we DID see her in that postscript bit... And, I mean, what the hell could she even do?? It’s not like this Roxy is just Aradia in really convincing cosplay or something.

==>

She leads John and Jake into the building and down the center of the nave, humming happily to herself the entire time. An equally effusive Calliope trails behind her, carrying a bouquet of purple flowers.

Well there’s Callie. What is WITH these hypnotized motherfuckers. I need a revelation on these shenanigans STAT.

What is with people being bathed in light here?

each time we witness death, we fall in love in with the important people in oUr lives all over again.

Calliope is gazing at Roxy with glassy eyes. She sniffs as she plucks the last petal from her rose. A breeze washes through the cathedral from the crack in the door at the end of the room, brushing the petal off-course and causing it to get stuck in Roxy’s over-sprayed hair. Calliope reaches out with a visibly shaking hand to remove the plant offal, but she does not draw back. Instead, she lets her hand graze down the side of Roxy’s face and cup her cheek. Roxy puts her own hand over Callie’s and holds it.

Uhhh.... huh.

So.

If Roxy was just lying to herself, then............ WHY??????

John tilts his head and squints at the image in front of him. Hmm.

Is John realizing he’s in some sort of fanfic drawn by another character, hence all the people in serene lightbeams at tender but unjustified moments?

Everyone whips their heads around to see, of all people, Aradia hovering in the foyer

Pff

(...I hope Aradia didn’t come here, like, from the postscript. Where the “action” she talked about might have just been this corpse party. Because that would be pretty fucking lame.)

KARKAT: MAYBE FUCKING NEPETA IS ABOUT TO POUNCE FROM BEHIND THAT GROTESQUE STATUE OF THE HUMAN SUFFERER T-POSING OVER THERE.

Pfffffffffff

The description of Human Jesus we all had in our hearts, but were too afraid to voice.

Alright, now we see the body we took our eyes off of. Is it going to get back up, or did it escape earlier?

since nobody was willing to dislodge the huge, otherworldly shard from her chest

My damn god, people.

...alright finally, everyone’s talking.

JANE: Agreed. I’ve always felt that Kanaya has done an exemplary job of providing a model for compassionate, empathetic behavior, which others of her kind would do well to follow.

JANE STOP BEING A XENOPHOBIC BASTARD

CALLIOPE: please. roxy gathered yoU all here for a reason. CALLIOPE: at least listen Until the end. CALLIOPE: after that yoU can argUe all you want.

...Huh. Huuuuhh. What the fuck is all this for. Are you saying ROXY caused this? Or...?

Okay I like this reinforcement she’s making in her speech about how different changes can influence how all of this unfolds, gives me hope that maybe these two cliffhangers aren’t all we’re going to be left with and we’ll be able to at least think of an IMPLIED future different from them if we wanted to like we thought about the seemingly-infinite-possibility original ending of Homestuck that I’d rather have been stuck with than this oh god breathe boots

okay there’s the labor going into good distraction

alright corpse get back up

JADE: i am not jade.

Right, so like the black eyes in the postscript suggested this is more just a... vessel for alt!Calliope now? To give HER a future beyond the one she sacrificed for that black hole business? And between alt!Callie’s became-the-black-hole nature and Jade’s Spacey Green Sun connection that’s been singularified, she has access to cool Black Hole powers? And is gonna do cool shit with them in implied future adventures we won’t see while Aradia gleefully watches the carnage? Huh.

The congregation watches her go, but no one moves to help her, or even looks in her direction. In her wake, she leaves a primal, echoing wail.

Oh my god why wouldn’t they have just a brief discussion or something IT’S NOT THAT BAD D:

JADE: and while i cannot say the same thing for the rest of you, JADE: i, at least, am exactly where i am meant to be.

Well fuck. So she just disconfirmed this timeline as... something. Relevant, possible, I dunno.

JADE: and i have entered this body to protect your world.

Okay that’s good. So thanks to alt!Calliope these side timelines where things unfolded differently MAY be preserved. Pretty fitting given alt!Callie’s origins.

.......unless there’s some other stupid interspecies civil war threat that she’s going to be fighting too, here, when the political situation falls apart. Dammit.

==>

Terezi talk Terezi talk

-- JOHN EGBERT sent TEREZI PYROPE the photo “ghostrain.jpg” --

TEREZI: WH4T TH3 4CTU4L FUCK JOHN: it started a few days ago. the sky above the capital of the troll kingdom just cracked open and ghosts began raining down everywhere.

Oh my GOD. So alt!Callie kind of “saved” all the doomed ghosts that got swallowed up in the black hole by redirecting them all to THIS UNIVERSE and timeline???????

That’s pretty interesting! Heck my stomach’s even calming down!

they can’t even be judges! TEREZI: G4SP

Yeah that’s pretty terrible!

...yep, the resistance WOULD put him in charge. I had a feeling it may have ended up in that direction in Candy since it wasn’t in Meat.

--oh FUCK YOU Jade for splitting up what he had with Karkat before they could sort it out!!! You did the OPPOSITE OF HELP and neither of them are going to end up happy thanks to you! D:<

PFFF wow, John’s so concerned about babby not!Tavros’s living situation that he’s considering legit kidnapping. That means things must be pretty fucking bad.

--okay Calliope’s still out and about with Roxy instead of being cooped up in her room like in the other timeline, that’s good.

Pff, trying to redeem Ghost Eridan in front of Ghost Feferi. Yep, that’s Gamzee.

GAMZEE: fIrSt, A LiTtLe RiGhTeOuS sPlAsH oF tHe NaNnA nEcTaR tO cLeAnSe ThAt DaNkNeSs FrOm YoUr SoUlS...

Gamzee takes out a baby bottle and flicks it, covering them both with little drops of milk, as clergy does with holy water. He then takes a swig from the bottle himself before returning it to his codpiece.

Jesus. Fucking. Christ.

I don’t want to believe that what’s in that bottle is what he’s making it sound like it is, but OF COURSE it is. Why would it be anything else. I bet there’s not even any Lifey hypnosis going on, it’s just the literal stuff.

The crowd falls silent as they raise their heads to watch a drone ship pass by overhead.

Jegus fuck stop going whole hog condesce janey

ROXY: lmao you worry too much ROXY: janeys got her head on straight shell show you yet

ROXY. WHERE DID YOUR BRAIN GO. I MISS IT. YOUR BRAIN WAS THE BEST FUCKING PART OF YOU.

Touching photo.

Alright lemme post split. I haven’t gotten as far as the last post plowed through since I’ve been typing so much... ah well.

Season 4 Episode 13: After School Special

- IT’S WEECHESTER TIME!!! Not so wee since they’re in high school. Teenchesters?

- God. High school. My life in high school was never this much drama. WOAH!!! IS THAT ECTOPLASM COMING OUT OF HER EYES??? She killed the cheerleader... That was brutal...

- Sam playing a mental ward orderly never gets old. Except that not demonic possession. ECTOPLASM!!!! So it’s a ghost!

- OMG DEAN 18 YEAR OLD YOU LOOKS LIKE AN ASSHOLE! LOL!! AWH! LOOK AT BABY 14 YEAR OLD SAM! Awh, Dean may look like an asshole but he’s the sweetest big bro. “Go your books, got your lunch, got your butterfly knife?” I love how he doesn’t have a backpack and Sam has this BULGING backpack. LOL! Poor Sam. I don’t know how he managed to keep up and learn anything considering they moved town every 2-3 weeks.

- OOOPS! There goes the butterfly knife straight onto the seat! And Sam just made a geeky friend. HAHAHAH! OMG DEAN! “Don’t need ‘em (books) sugar. Not gonna be here long enough anyway.” God, you are every teacher’s worst nightmare, Dean. and Sam steps up and takes the place of a kid being bullied. Sammy the cinnamon roll.

- Ooh, a janitor. That’s a good cover. OMG FUCKING GOD DEAN WTF ARE YOU WEARING NO!!!!! MY EYES!!!! NOOOOO!!!!! THAT IS NOT HOW GYM COACHES DRESS!!! NO!!!!! *SNORTS* OMG HE JUST NAILED THE KID IN THE STOMACH WITH THE DODGE BALL!!!!

- “The whistle makes me their God.” I AM LAUGHING HYSTERICALLY!

- The ghost is possessing kids that are being bullied and making them harm their tormentors.... That jock is about to get his hand shoved in that food processor and I don’t know if I can watch...

- Dean. It’s not because they’re legal that it’s remotely okay for you to entertain those thoughts. Stop it.

- *GASP!!!!* BARRY! NO!! SAM’S FRIEND??? Awh... Possessing nerds and going after bullies. :(

- Dean, the fact you live in a motel is not impressive... But looks like the girl doesn’t really care. Awh, Barry wanted to be a veterinarian... :( Teenager Sam is so cute and noble. Like adult Sam when he’s not being dark and creepy. Standing up to Barry and refusing to fight even after he’s taken a punch in the face. You can see the fact he was holding himself back.

- They already burned the bones? There’s still like 22 minutes to the episode. Did they get the wrong ID?

- Dean hated that school? And Sam though it was all bad even “after what happened” to him? What happened to him? He got beaten up by Dirk? Haha! Dean going big brother all over Sam. “That kid’s dead. I’m going to rip his lungs out!” “Sammy look at yourself. And as soon as I’m finished with that dick!” “Shut up okay? I don’t need your help.” “That’s right, you don’t. YOU could have torn him apart. So why didn’t you?” “Because I don’t want to be the freak for once, Dean. I want to be normal!” I love that interaction. And Amanda wants him to meet her parents and Dean does not do parents. LOL!

- Omg Sam, you did not. You fucking wrote about killing a werewolf? In California, right? I remember making a comment during Heart about them going to Disneyland :P Sam, you should have written some fiction for your assignment. Oooooooo!!!!!!!! Sam has Mr. Wyatt his English teacher to thank for starting him in thinking about no being hunter... Teachers can be so influential in kids’ lives.

- AWH! And now he wants to go back to talk to him. And that’s when they’re going to find out that the ghost is still around.

- CREEPY WHAT??? RANDOM GIRL KNOWS WHO SAM IS??? Because it’s the GHOST! Of Barry...? HOLY SHIT SHE STABBED SAM AND KICKED HIM IN THE BALLS! But they burned Barry’s body! Wait! Dirk the bully??

- I’m sorry, but, is Dean’s default reaction to Sam being injured to threaten to rip the thing’s lung out?

- HAH!! DIRK SR. IS THE NEW BUS DRIVER! He’s likely carrying something of Dirk’s on his person, which is likely how Dirk is hitching a ride.

- Teenager Sam laying it down!!! Kid has been well trained, taking on a bully twice his size! Oh no. “Dirk the jerk.” I can see where this is going... Was Sam responsible for fucking up Dirk’s life after that fight...? AWH NO! HE WAS!!!! OG MAN! THERE GOES THE GUILT TRIP! Man, Dirk’s life sucked. But he was still an asshole.

- And now he’s possessing the driver in a bus full of jocks! Ooh, rope soaked in salt water. Nice. OMG LOL! “Aren’t you the P.E. teacher?” “Not really. I’m like 21 Jump Street.” Love it.

- Huh. Dirk thought Sam was popular? Interesting how people have such different perspectives of life. Well, Sam didn’t hesitate to shoot with the rock salt. OH! DIRK WENT INTO A STUDENT! That’s going to make him really hard to contain.

- Dude, Sam, come on. You could fight back a little instead of just letting Dirk beat you up. Also, how come shooting the student didn’t push Dirk out? LOL! Poor Sam. Crushed under the jock.

- Dean is already with another girl?? Awh Dean. You are a lonely kid... :( And Sam became popular...

- Hah, that’s a funny question, Mr. Wyatt. “Are you happy, Sam?” The answer would be no. No, he is not. He has demons on his tail, he has demon blood in him, he’s decided to be stupid and keep on killing demons with his mind, which will ultimately lead to him being possessed by Lucifer (I AM CONVINCED!). Maybe him doing what he’s doing is one of the 600 seals. Who knows! IT’S NOT LIKE THIS SHOW TELLS US ANYTHING!!!! Because Sam is REALLY good at flashing those puppy dog eyes at Dean and getting him to spill but fuck if we ever find out anything that Sam is thinking or feeling!

I love weechesters/teenchesters episodes.

#supernatural #sam winchester #dean winchester #season 4 #first time watching #teenchesters #sam was bullied #sam beat up the bully #sam became popular #dean was popular #dean struck out #dean became unpopular?

Prompt: "It's not that I don't want to. I'm just really, really drunk... Like, really."

265.

“It’s not that I don’t want to. I’m just really, really drunk... like, really.”

Clint’s voice over the comms is slurring, sure, committed to character development, but there’s also a trace of something a little panicky that’s making all the hair stand up on the back of Bucky’s neck.

“Steve,” he says, low, and Steve is chewing on his lip, looking conflicted.

“Clint, are you -”

“Woah,” Clint snaps, “hands,” and Bucky growls and throws himself out the back of the van, heading into the bar at a march that’s not far off running. The place is badly lit, buzzing neon over the pool tables, and it takes a second for Bucky’s eyes to adjust enough to catch sight of Clint’s stupid purple shirt over by the bathrooms.

The guy crowding him against the wall is even taller than Clint is, and built with it, which explains why he’d been hired as Hydra muscle in the first place. Bucky heads over, head down and fists clenched, and Clint catches sight of him and there’s a moment of impossible relief on his face before he resolves it into a scowl.

“Hey,” Clint says, sliding out from under the guy’s arm when he turns to look for who Clint’s talking to. “Hey, asshole, I thought I said I didn’t wanna see you any more.”

“Aaw, baby,” Bucky says, sliding effortlessly into character, “don’t be like this.”

“The hell’s this?” Hydra goon grunts, and Bucky gives him a quick once-over, dismissive.

“I’m his boyfriend, asshole, who the hell are you?”

“No you’re not,” Clint slurs, “you’re a dick and I don’t wanna -” he acts like he’s lost his train of thought. “I like Dirk now.”

“Dave,” the guy says, and Clint nods.

“Right, right, Dave, this guy.” He grins up at him and then makes a show of palming his ass, and the guy’s too busy smirking at Bucky to notice Clint sliding the flash drive he’s fished out of the guy’s back pocket into his own.

“You don’t mean that,” Bucky says and steps forward, into Clint’s space, slides his fingers down from his elbow to his hand and linking their fingers together. “C’mon baby, you gotta know I love you.”

Clint bites his lip and looks down, his fingers tightening on Bucky’s.

“Fuck’s sake,” Dave says, “you’re not even hot enough for this.” He stalks away to the bar, and Clint snorts, looking up at Bucky with a mischievous smirk.

“You gonna let him talk to me that way?”

Bucky shrugs. “At least we know Hydra’s dumb as well as evil.”

“Aaw,” Clint says, “you say the sweetest things.”

“He still looking?” Bucky asks, and Clint glances over his shoulder.

“Yeah, why, you gonna - ?” but his eyes are already flickering down to Bucky’s mouth, and he licks his lips, and he pulls on Bucky’s hand, and Bucky figures that’s all pretty unmistakable.

“...everything okay, guys?” Steve asks, maybe five minutes later, but Bucky’s got both hands in Clint’s hair and he’s got no interest in using his mouth for anything but this.

Tensei’s Strife 2 - Reactions

Alright, getting around to listening to Strife 2 now!

Judging from the names, the fact that Tensei made this, AND THAT IT'S STRIFE 2... this is going to be so epic! :D

1) Spirit of Storms

Sounds like it will be a Stormspirit remix and/or extension! :D

In any case, there's no track-art for it yet, so that doesn't give much information yet, in any case. :P

Let's go!

...THAT DOES NOT SOUND LIKE STORMSPIRIT.

But dang if it ain't epic!

That was a sweet opener to the album! A really cool song to jam out to.

2) Sanguine Panchromatic

I think this is probably going to be something Kankri related?

Once again no track-art, so that won't give us a clue. :P

...Haha, those guitars remind me a lot of Iron Knight! Definitely sounds like a Vantas song then! :D

That was really epic! I don't think it's a very memorable song, nor is Spirit of Storms, but definitely a really cool song!

3) G4M3 OR D13

Probably a song for Latula, or maybe Terezi!

...This one has track-art! That's not a Pyrope though! xD

Like plainWonder said, probably Troll Gamegrl then?

I love that trackart though, all those videogame easter eggs in there! A Pokéball from Pokémon, a sprite of Samus Aran I think, a sprite of Link from The Legend of Zelda, a Mario sprite, and a Pac-Man ghost!

I'm pretty curious what the song is going to be like, will it sound especially videogamey?

...

AW YEAH ROCK OUT BABY.

Woah, that's a really good mix of 8-bit sounds and the typical Tensei riffs!

I really like how diverse this song is! So many really great parts, and it's a very memorable song.

This one is DEFINITELY on the level of the original Strife album! I love it.

4) Rouge on the Rox

Hehe, definitely a Roxy song.

No track-art here either, so let's see what it sounds like!

WHEN SUDDENLY SAMBA

SAMBA OUT OF NOWHERE

HOLY SHIT

NOT WHAT I WAS EXPECTING TO HEAR IN A TENSEI SONGS

BUT DANG IF THIS AIN'T GROOVY

This... wow. This is definitely not something that sounds like a typical Tensei song, but I LOVE it! It makes me feel like dancing.

I think this is on an even higher level than G4M3 OR D13! Definitely not disappointed by this one!

For now every song is better than the last one every time! That's promising!

5) Perfect Cascade of the Heart

Oh boy, a Cascade remix as a Dirk (or Nepeta or Meulin) song?? :D

If this is going to be what I think it will be, then it will be insanely epic!

No track-art either, so we'll just have the song to go by!

...Pfffff, that sounds like an elevator music.

WELP, forget what I said, SUDDENLY BURST OUT INTO PURE TENSEI. And then some saxophone, reminding me of Blue Atom / Cyan Beast!

Oh man, the part at 1:30 reminds me a lot of Time On My Side!

I wouldn't say it's as great as G4M3 OR D13 or Rouge on the Rox, but definitely pretty dang cool as well!

Doesn't really seem like it's Cascade-related though. :P

6) Hope Strikes Eternal

Oh dear, Eternity Served Cold remix as a Jake song?? :O

On the other hand, the previous one didn't really seem to have anything to do with Cascade, so this might not have anything to do with Eternity Served Cold either. :P

...Well uh, the track-art doesn't suggest anything Jake nor Lord English related, in any case. xD

...

Heh, the first few seconds remind me of Another Jungle.

Woah, that's a really nice song as well! Pretty memorable! I like the diversity in the song too.

Slightly less great than G4M3 OR D13 perhaps, but still awesome!

7) Aerosoul

I'm not very sure who this could be for. Something with Dirk/Nepta/Meulin (soul) or Erisolsprite (Aerosoul was a popular joke name referring to Erisolsprite for a while).

...On the other hand, the songs with track-art we've seen so far seem to suggest these songs aren't for specific Homestuck characters. :P

...

Another pretty cool song. Not very memorable either, but still pretty great!

Like plainWonder said, kind of like some dark version of Heir Transparent.

8) Arachnofunkia

Vriska and/or Aranea song (or Serket-like fantroll?), OBVIOUSLY! I like how it's the 8th song. ;D

...Yup, that looks like a Serket-like fantroll to me. :P

I have a feeling this is going to be funky!

...

Haha, yeah that's really funky and Serket-like!

I also really like the diversity in this song, how it goes to so many different places!

It's even got a few memorable melodies in it.

It's very, very close to G4M3 OR D13 in terms of how much I like it.

9) The King in Red

HYPED FOR THIS ONE. NUFF SAID.

...That track-art though. :O

Looks like a Nitram-like Troll... going all Makara-crazy (what with the throne and all the blood on the wall reminding me of The Grand Highblood)??? Now I'm curious what his story is. :P

REMIXES CRUSTACEAN BY TOBY FOX. OH BOY.

Looks like this is going to be the first song to actually remix an existing song!

Now I'm very curious! I've heard a lot of good things about this song before.

...

DRAMATIC BEGINNING IS DRAMATIC. Sounds like it could be a church song!

And oh boy, where are we going now...

Woah, this seems to be building up to something incredibly epic...

Yeah, I think I hear where Crustacean comes in! Woah, that's a really nice use of that melody.

Oh man, I really love this one. Very, very close to how much I like Rouge on the Rox!

Definitely my second favorite so far, this didn't disappoint at all!

10) Heel Girl

The name would have made me think it's something Latula related, but plainWonder thinks it's a Jade song!

On the other hand, all of the other songs don't seem to be related to any specific Homestuck character, so this probably won't be either.

"Remixes Courser by Alexander Rosetti"!!! Oh man, that DOES suggest something Jade-related.

I'm pretty curious about this one! Is it going to be somewhat Atomic Bonsai-like?

...

Nice beat to start off with!

And yup, there's Courser-like music, very clearly!

Oh man, at 2:00 the Courser melody clearly kicks in! I really like the way it's used here.

Holy CRAP that was AWESOME. It lifted the Courser melody to unseen heights, that's for sure!

Slightly better than G4M3 OR D13, in my opinion, and very close to King in Red in terms of how awesome it is!

11) Unite Division

UNITE SYNCHRONIZATION REMIX LET'S GO??? Or not??? :P

"Remixes 'Liquid Negrocity' by Toby Fox." OKAY THAT IS NOT UNITE SYNCHRONIZATION

Oh god

Ooooooooooooooooh god.

Oh man if this is going to be anything like Time On My Side...

...

Oh man this sounds ESPECIALLY dark. Oh hi Liquid Negrocity!

This entire song reminds me a lot of the part of Collide when Jack and PM are fighting!

Another really great addition to the album!

12) Spirit of Storms (Reprise)

Let's see how much it is like the first one!

...

Wow, that's really groovy! More memorable than the normal Spirit of Storms, that's for sure!

EIGHT MORE SONGS IN THE EXTRA'S IN THE DOWNLOAD!!!!!!!! Oooooh yeah!

Let's see what they are...

13) The King in Red (Beta)

Ooooooh! A Beta song! Like Tensei did with Cascade (Beta)!

Now I'm very curious how similar and/or different it is to the normal King in Red.

...

Well, I did seem to hear some differences with the normal version. I think I like the normal version more! So, I think it's good that this is the extra version.

14) Unite Division (Beta)

Hah, another beta! Let's see if this one has the Liquid Negrocity melody in it too, or not.

...

Oh god, that beginning reminds me a lot of Rex Duodecim Angelus or Lemonsnout Turnabout.

Did I hear some Western-like whistles at some point?

Unlike the King in Red Beta, I think I like the Unite Divison Beta more than I like its ordinary version! It sounded really, really great, and I would have loved to hear a longer version of it.

15) Arachnofunkia (Beta)

Another beta? Huh, are all the extra songs going to be beta versions of songs already on this album? I mean, not that I'm complaining. :P

Let's see how this one compares to its normal version.

...

Hmm, I don't think I heard too many differences. Maybe slightly more guitars in here, making it closer to for example Spider8reath? Yeah, I think I like the normal version of this song more as well.

16) Heel Girl (Beta)

Aaaaand, another Beta.

...

Yeaaaaah, I don't really think I heard the differences in this one. :P

17) daet with roze

...Pfffff, that's not a Beta song, in any case. xD

Oh god, is this some kind of SBAHJ song for Rose? I mean, what with the spelling here, haha.

Or perhaps plainWonder's right and it's a drunk Rose song, about her date with Kanaya?

Let's see what this is like! I imagine it will be a pretty silly song?

...

Hah, those first few notes made me think this was going to start with the Liquid Negrocity melody.

Seems like a pretty smooth relaxing song!

Wow, I really like it! Seems like a song for a lounge or something.

I would have loved it if this song had been longer!

18) Dance of Thorns (Karaoke)

WHAT.

DANCE OF THORNS KARAOKE. WHAT??? xD

I'm... I'm not even sure what to imagine this will be like, oh dear god.

...

It sure starts out as Dance of Thorns... and suddenly it goes down a different route!

Wow. It's really, really different from the normal version of Dance of Thorns. I like what he did with it! I still prefer the original one, but not bad at all!

...Huh, plainWonder might be right that this really is just the ordinary Dance of Thorns, but with the violins removed from it! That's pretty interesting! I'm surprised by how "different" it sounds with the violins removed from it.

19) Bound in Blood (Beta)

Hmm, a beta song, without a normal version of it on the album?

Is it perhaps simply a song that was supposed to go on the normal album but turned out not to be good enough?

Let's listen to it.

...

Oh boy, this is really different from the other songs!

Oh man, I hardly even noticed the Saviour of the Waking World melody in it at first!

Jeeeeeeeez, this is awesome! I think this would have fit really nicely onto this album, as a non-extra! It's definitely one of my favorites here! It's shame it doesn't have a longer version.

20) Duet

A duet! ...With whom? xD

Did Tensei collaborate with someone on this?

Or is it supposed to sound like a song two of the Kids made together or something?

Let's see what it sounds like.

...

Well, the beginning sounds like John! ...And then Rose! Oooooooh, this is a nice melody. I'm kind of reminded of the sound of a few songs from Jit's One Year Older album!

Wow, once again this is entirely different from the rest of the album, but dang it's really cool! I would have ALSO loved to see this on the album as a non-extra.

So, that was it!

I think it's a pretty good successor to the original Strife! In terms of overall quality, I think it's a biiiiiiit less great. There are quite some songs on it that I think, on my first listening, are less great than the original Strife songs, a few that I think that are just as great as those original songs, and a few ones I like more than the original Strife songs!

I'm especially a great fan of the songs that Tensei took in an entirely new and unexpected direction.

So overall, great job!

If I had to make a ranking of the songs right now, I'd say it's something like:

1. Rouge on the Rox 2. The King in Red 3. Heel Girl / Heel Girl (Beta) 4. Bound in Blood (Beta) 5. G4M3 OR D13 6. Duet 7. daet with roze 8. Unite Division (Beta) 9. The King In Red (Beta) 10. Arachnofunkia 11. Dance of Thorns (Karaoke) 12. Hope Strikes Eternal 13. Unite Division 14. Arachnofunkia (Beta) 15. Spirit of Storms (Reprise) 16. Perfect Cascade of the Heart 17. Sanguine Panchromatic 18. Spirit of Storms 19. Aerosoul

With 1-3 = Better than the original Strife songs, 4-8 = Just as good as the original Strife songs, 9-15 = Not as good as the original Strife songs but still really great and memorable, and 16-19 = Pretty good songs, but not that memorable to me.

#woah look at the babies dirk wher edid you get em omg#wehere does a gal get her hands on somethin like that#*where#theyre so pretty!#also u changed your nail color?#what is this backwter loyalty#ouch mister

Rox, please, they’ve only just blipped into existence a few hours ago, you’ll scare them.

At any rate, how the fuck do you just zoom way the fuck in like that? Why do you hyper focus on that particular detail? Why are you like this? I let the nail paint slowly chip off and I switched the colour once most of it was gone, rather than redoing the coat.

New York: Day 1

[ Towers loom overhead, bright red thorny spires, bilboards plastered with brightly-illuminated advertisements for alien foods written in scrawling alternian scripts. All of them promising THE GREATEST TASTES, the ULTIMATE FOOD EXPERIENCE, TEN THOUSAND PERCENT EATS!!!! NONE HUNGER AND ALWAYS THE FEEDED! The urban sprawl seems to know no end, streets packed with despondant looking humans, some of whom have unhealthy, pale-gray skin and weird little growths on their foreheads. Somewhere in the distance, glamorous spotlights shine high into the night. A massive blimp hovers overhead. It reads: WELCOME TO FLAVORTOWN. ]

[ The experience is jarring and they are immediately struck by a wave of sensations. Bright lights, intense odors, and, soon enough, the feeling of being dumped onto hard, cold pavement. Rose, John, Kankri, Gamzee, Meulin, Jamison, Jolene, Dualscar, Jude and Joey all find themselves met with the same rude awakening, scattered down a block labeled in jarring neon lights, UMAMI. ]

JOEY: =oof!! It hasn't been one of her better landings...=

JOEY: where the HELL are we?

ROSE: -she answers by way of promptly throwing up in the gutter.-

JUDE: -OH GOD OH MAN OH GOD OH MAN-

JAMISON: OOF, =still holding his babies and STANDS= WHAT THE JIMJAM FLIMFLAM IS THIS RASSAFRASSING TOMFOOLERY!??!

JAMISON: =scampers in place holding two grown adults.... oh there are others here= Everyone grab a rifle I've got plenty strapped to my body!

MEULIN: -YOWLS and sticks the landing on her feet, puffed up and claws out. WHO MUST SHE BRAWL.-

ROSE: -this city is sure hell for someone with a migraine. awesome.-

ROSE: -She's just gonna lay down and drape an arm over her eyes because this is way too much to process.-

ROSE: -she's CRACKLING A LITTLE with all kinds of weird energy right now.-

JOHN: mother....fucker. -grunts, rolling around a little because his knees are stinging. but he recovers quickly, floating up to his feet and whizing around.- hey, is everyone okay?

ROSE: I am going to take every liberty to not be okay right now.

ROSE: I'd really like that.

ROSE: For a second.

KANKRI: -Unceremoniously dumped into the street on the alien to him planet by a zap of green energy, its very alarming, hes frazzled, but the moment he hears John his head is snapping in that direction.-

JOEY: =To rose= heyyyy youre kinda staticky...

JOHN: yeah -blinking in the harsh light. ugh. this is tacky. earth has really gone to shit, hasn't it?-

JOHN: but i mean no one has broken bones or anything, right?

ROSE: I.

ROSE: I know.

ROSE: No, I didn't-- break anything.

ROSE: I just...

ROSE: Fuck.

ROSE: FUCK.

JOHN: -lands- rose?

ROSE: Do you recall a number of childish beliefs held by myself and perhaps others? That-- that I am some manner of machiavellian genius, carefully placing my pieces on a chessboard? ROSE: Because it's wrong. It's fucking wrong. We were used. I was used. She--

ROSE: God DAMN it.

JOHN: -just...keeps apparoaching her, not bothering to comment because he doesn't know what she's talking about. he just puts his hand on her shoulder, despite the sparks.-

ROSE: -she's kinda crying a little bit under that arm, turns out. She leans into John. A throbbing ache in her head, a deep pit of guilt in her stomach, and that inescapable feeling of betrayal. All of it. She eventually just clings to him, throwing her arms around his shoulders.-

JOHN: -Holds her tightly like 8( 'cause what else can he do? He glances around at everyone else for a moment and then focuses on patting Rose on the back as she sobs.-

JOEY: D:

KANKRI: -Oh, Rose looks in really bad shape. ):B -

[The faint smell of chipotle seasoning and deep fried fat waft through the air. The pale figures on the street seem anxious, but not at these strangers arrival. No, it's something more. Some wear fake smiles, painted into their faces, trying to seem joyous despite the nightmare everyone is in.]

JOHN: -At least comforting Rose gives him something else to focus on because this is REALLY DISTURBING.-

JOEY: um.... =pats Jude a bit urgently= um.... =points??=

JAMISON: =This is unsettling! He focuses on his glasses and IMMEDIATELY gets out his potato-zooka= Should we wipe out the left or right first?

JOHN: hey woah wait. they're not hurting us.

JOHN: -why are you always so TRIGGER HAPPY?-

JOHN: -still has Rose tucked in his arm.-

JAMISON: Can't say I'm so found of... pasty possible hostiles but I'll keep an eye on them..... =Squints=

KANKRI: -Hes eyeing Jamison so hard, he remembers this human, he does not like this man. Although yes, the sense of unease radiating from the people around them is quite terrible.- I d9nt 6elieve they are h9stiles th9ugh.

ROSE: -She sniffs, taking a deep breath.- ROSE: -Then she wipes at her eyes with her hands, messily.- ROSE: They look human enough.

KANKRI: In fact t9 them we might 6e the h9stiles c9nsidering we are the 9nes wh9 suddenly appeared 9n their sidewalk. -Looks around at their new surroundings again.-

JOHN: -studies them. He's been a doctor long enough to tell that they look unhealthy. Is it lack of nutrition combined with some sort of mutation?-

JOHN: poor guys...

MEULIN: -growling softly.- SOMETHING'S WRONG WITH THIS PLACE... IT SMELLS... WRONG.

JAMISON: =Rose looks sad.... he gives her a homemade shrapnel granade= Alright then.... I suppose the zombies have clearance....

JOHN: -takes a deeper whiff and sneezes-

JOHN: smells spicy!

JOHN: -pulls a multi colored chain of hankerchiffs out of his sleeve and offers it to Rose with the intent of cheering her up A LITTLE BIT.-

ROSE: -what the fuck, jamison-

ROSE: -ok-(edited)

KANKRI: -Zombies.... Please.- I d9nt think any9ne w9uld appreciate 6eing called that, dispite h9w 9utwardly appearing unwell.

JOEY: whatever it is my creep-o-meter is skyrocketing

JOHN: let's not argue over semanticss guys. we should focus on the big picture here.

JAMISON: =IT'S FOR COMFORT=

[ Overhead, and paying them no mind, robotic drones rocket with a piece of NEW construction. A large screen of some kind, already busily welding it to the side of a building. It flickers to life, soon cycling a brand new advertisement: http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/seriouslytheworst/images/f/fd/Banner2.gif/revision/latest?cb=20150919122657 ]

JOHN: -wrinles his nose at this rampant commercialism- ew....

JOEY: thats it

JOEY: i must be dreaming

KANKRI: -John is this really what earth advertising is like?-

JAMISON: =SQUINTS???/?=

JOHN: -Well tbh...yes-

KANKRI: -Thats so sad... No wonder these mutated earthlings look tormented.-

[ YOU WON'T BELIEVE ]

ROSE: -She's sitting up and composed herself a little bit, now just sitting on the sidewalk.-

JOHN: -hovers around her because he feels protective but his general uneasiness wants them to get moving.. .SOMEWHERE instead of just standing here like sitting ducks- i guess we should try to find out where we are and maybe try to contact the others?

JOHN: does anybody's comm work? mine doesn't.

ROSE: I'm trying to think.

ROSE: I'm not sure. I might have fried it.

[IT'LL FIT RIGHT IN]

[FRIED THING!!!! $5.95!!!! FRY ANY THING THAT FITS IN THE FRIER! FRY YOUR BABY!!!!!! $5.95!!!!!!!]

MEULIN: RRR... SOMEONE CAN TRY MINE. -uncaptchalogues hers and holds it out to anyone-

JOHN: :/

MEULIN: I'M GOING TO K33P MY NOSE OUT.

ROSE: -she reaches for it, and checks it.-

ROSE: Oh.

MEULIN: -wrinkling said nose-

KANKRI: -Shuffles a bit closer to peep at what Rose is typing, and also just to be closer to john.- 9h, it d9es w9rk. Thats g99d.

JOHN: -also 👀 also hello Kankri he's going to sling his arm around your waist because this SUCKS BALLS.-

KANKRI: -Hes glued to your side now, John.-

JOHN: -It's fine. As far as tumors go, you're pretty benign. He peeps on what Rose is doing.-

JOHN: any luck?

KANKRI: -Tumors....-

KANKRI: -Yeah alright fair that is him.-

ROSE: Vriska stole the ship.

ROSE: Fairly incompetently.

JOHN: ...pfffft... WHAT? -LAUGHING-

ROSE: She's arguing with HAL, right now...

JOHN: oh my gosh. i am going to give her such a punch.

ROSE: And she is losing.

JOHN: can you pass that message on for me?

JOHN: right in the face. boom.

KANKRI: -Hes frowning.- 9h dear... that d9esn't s9und all that funny 9r like light hearted material c9nsidering 9ur situati9n.

JOHN: well i really do mean it. she is kidnapping my baby technically. but what else did you find out/

ROSE: I'd rate it as a three, compared to the seven that is a hamburger with eyeballs.

ROSE: Dirk is in Texas.

ROSE: And... other people are elsewhere. Information is still a bit disoragnized.

JOHN: -snorts again. Sorry guys. This is his reaction to pain.-(edited)

JOHN: i hope everyone's ..at least as relatively ok as we are.

ROSE: Relatively.

ROSE: ...See if Jamison or Jolene can't look at your coms. I think mine will recover when I can... get ahold of myself.

KANKRI: Again, an9ther p9sitive.

JOHN: things could be a lot worse! -gonna pass his comm along to Jamison-

JAMISON: =was already fiddling with things but he'll fiddle MORE and FIX UP John's comm=

JOHN: -sighs a little as he hands it over.- i hope jade is alright...and the babies.

JOHN: she was all...weird right before we teleported.

JOHN: growling and stuff.

KANKRI: Yes, indeed. -Hes also going to fish out his device and look it over to be certain it still is working.-

KANKRI: Als9 9h... Well ideally they all will 6e just fine.

KANKRI: -Hes so bad at comforting right now, hes a failure.-

JOLENE: -currently barking and flipping her shit, too busy to be helpful mostly because I'm doing too much at once-

JOEY: so i take it jade isnt normally like that

ROSE: No.

ROSE: She's not.

JUDE: -HOWEVER, he's grumbling something about kids being fine-

JOEY: ah

JUDE: -while hunched over his comm which does work-

JOHN: -rubs the back of his neck, frowning and looking around. he feels restless.-

JAMISON: =hands John back his comm GOOD AS NEW... maybe even better. Definitely better it has a GUN feature now=

JAMISON: There you go! :D

JOHN: -????????????-

JAMISON: =He had it for 2 minutes=

JOEY: =comfort pat on Jude's back???=

JUDE: -GOOD PLAN-

JOHN: -HE WILL PROBABLY NEVER USE THIS BUT HE SAYS THANK YOU ANYWAY. -

JOHN: -he'll get dirk to install a child safety lock when he gets back home >>-

JUDE: -STARES AT JOEY WIDE EYED- ... I...

JUDE: I told her... that the head set... -looks down at his comm again- I guess it doesn't matter now

ROSE: What?

ROSE: What are you talking about?

ROSE: -Sits up, from being all hunched over her com.-

JUDE: ... jane's head set

JUDE: I thought... because it was crocker corp technology

JUDE: they could use it to get to us somehow... track our location... or worse

JUDE: and worse happened

ROSE: -she just scowls.-

ROSE: Mm.

MEULIN: WAIT, WHAT?? -looks around for whoever's speaking. her sunglasses aren't exactly being clear on who this is yet.-

MEULIN: WHAT HAPPENED EXACTLY?

JOEY: :(

JOEY: jude was right...again

ROSE: You can have this back. -She holds the device over to her.- ROSE: We were used.

ROSE: I don't know if she was in on it somehow, or—

ROSE: I don't know. ROSE: This is too much.

ROSE: Everything is... too much.

JOHN: we can't think about that right now. -nudges her.-

JOHN: let's focus on what we can control.-

ROSE: Right.

ROSE: We need a way to get out of here. Meet up with the others.

ROSE: And we need a place to rest and take stock of what we've got.

MEULIN: -puts the device back up- THE SMELL OF THIS PLACE... IS GIVING ME A WICKED BAD HEADACHE. (^>ｪ<^)

ROSE: -She wipes her eyes one last time and rises to her feet.- It's pretty intense. And... sustained.

JOHN: -UGH YEAH ME TOO. it's actually worse than he wants to admit because of sensory stuff but HE'S STAYING STUBBORNLY. OPTIMISTIC. he uncapatchas a little tub of ....Vicks of all thing sand takes a BIG WHIFF.- mmm.....okay thats' better.

JOHN: -dabs it on his upper lip right below his nostrils-

KANKRI: Hm. D9 we even have any exact idea 9f where we are currently l9cated?

KANKRI: 6esides in an ur6an setting surr9unded 6y seemingly thrilled individuals, wh9 I d9nt necessarily 6elieve are as happy as they appear...

JOHN: yeah this is some 1984 bullshit if i ever saw it. looks like they're really on board with big brother.

JOHN: bitch couldn't even be original about how she fucked up my planet. -sighs-

JOHN: maybe we could ask one though?

ROSE: ...I...

ROSE: Don't think this one was ever on the maps, before.-

ROSE: -she points towards the sky, where the massive blimp looms, reading WELCOME TO FLAVORTOWN.-

KANKRI: 6ig 6r9ther... are y9u meaning t9 say and 9r ass9ciate it with the phrase that in turn means the "9ver watching presence" 9f a higher c9rp9rati9n 9r g9vernment, usually in a negative 9r c9rrupted light?

KANKRI: -Also looks where Rose is pointing and oh what do you know. They are in Flavortown.-

JOHN: well, apparently we're in flavortown, i guess. -rolls eyes-

JOHN: juts saying it makes me feel dirty.

KANKRI: -Side eyes John.- That is an 9dd reacti9n t9 have t9 a name 9f a city.

KANKRI: Alth9ugh I have t9 agree with R9se, I d9nt remem6er ever learning a69ut a city named as such in my studies 9f Earth. Alth9ugh I c9uld have easily missed it if its n9t m9re significant.

JOEY: im gone for what? ten years?

JOEY: everythings changing!

JOHN: i feel you, kiddo.

JOHN: i wanted to show you guys my room! my old psoters are still up in there.

JOHN: i think?

JOEY: =KIDDO....im almost 40= eheeheehee

JOHN: -he walks up to some of the advertisements, studying closely and trying to read some of the SIGNAGE. he can understand Alternian, at least if that's what the troll script is.-

JOHN: -he's hoping there's one of those cheesy maps with the YOU ARE HERE arrows or osmething.-

[ John does manage to see this ]

http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/seriouslytheworst/images/1/1c/Chart-mooo.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/640?cb=20150920192938

JOEY: RUMP!

[It doesn't seem as if anyone is interested in speaking to them, much less harming them. If anything, everyone around is too busy trying to look mirthful, as if they hope it's sufficient enough. The city streets aren't busy, but there are definitely plenty of alley ways, a couple even with barrel fires in them.]

JOHN: -HES' GETTING EDUCATED ABOUT MEAT BUT NOT WHERE THEY ARE, NECESSARILY-

KANKRI: -Barrel fires are not exactly safe. Someone could fall in or they could be knocked over or filled with dangerous burning products.-

JOHN: -don't worry kankri, he won't let anyone stuff you into a burning barrel.-

KANKRI: -WELL HE WASNT THINKING ABOUT THAT.-

JOHN: -okay well his comm is working. what if he just tries...Troogle Maps?-

KANKRI: -But that would be a concern.-

JOHN: -It's only an issue if you're tiny and perfectly barrel sized-

KANKRI: -John has thought about this too much.-

[If John checks Troogle maps, he will find that they are somewhere near the New York /Canada border]

JOHN: -Sighs, taking a screen shot so he doesn't have to waste so much battery. Then he shows it to Rose.-

ROSE: Oh.

ROSE: ...

ROSE: This is. Kind of near where I used to live.

JOHN: oh! wow! really?

ROSE: We're about six miles from Niagra Falls.

JOEY: =looks around, surprised= really??

ROSE: Yeah.

ROSE: That can't be right.

JOHN: how come?

ROSE: Because it...

ROSE: Just doesn't make much sense? I mean, I admit, my knowledge of this area is approximate and only half-remembered, but...

ROSE: Look at how far this city extends.

ROSE: Look at the size of these buildings! ROSE: There's no industry or exploitable resource here. The falls are a tourist attraction.

JOEY: because...! =gestures at....everything.=

JOHN: -bites his lip- extreme urban sprawl.

ROSE: Well, yes. To a cartoonish degree. Which I do admit is a bit... appropriate, in the presence of certain elements.

ROSE: -She poitns to another sign.- http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/seriouslytheworst/images/9/97/YUMEE.png/revision/latest?cb=20150919122142

ROSE: But still.

JOHN: -he desperately wants to graffiti on all this crap. and maybe take a leak on it for good measure.-

JOHN: >:/

JOEY: you alright there john buddy

JOHN: oh yeah. i just got my dander up.

[And yet it exists. All of it. Spicily, and v eerily the buildings loom over them. An almost palpable haze of grease in the air. Not mention the numerous neon signs. A new one was being attached to an adjacent building right at this moment. An unsettling picture of Guy Fieri upon. GUYS BIG BITE. SEASON PREMIERE LIVE FROM FLAVORTOWN. Wednesday at 8pm est/7pm cst]

ROSE: -SQUINTS-

JOHN: -PARTICULARILY REPULSED BY THIS IMAGE.- it's like the batterwitch's floury fingerprints on everything.

JOHN: sliding down your back.

JOHN: -shivers-

MEULIN: .... WHO THE FURK IS GUY?(edited)

KANKRI: -Squints up at the billboard as well.- I am als9 c9nfused as t9 wh9 this is.

JOHN: -turns away from it pointedly.- so what do you think rose? is it worth it to try and find your old house?

ROSE: No.

ROSE: No, I doubt there's anything left.

ROSE: We should just find someplace to sleep where no one will ask us any questions.

ROSE: ...Not that they appear to be willing to.

JOHN: hmm. - scratches chin and troogle maps again. this times for subways... and not the kind that sell sandwiches. -

[Closed and currently being filled with buffalo wing queso]

JOHN: -he's mad because he's disappointed but that sounds delicious-
