yet another “quadrant understanding” post ten years too late to actually affect how anyone understands quadrants 💔
#sometimes i feel like i am perhaps talking to a wall because like#yes while a lot of people still in the fandom are saying things like moirallegiance is platonic and i want to (gently) hit them w pillows#most of the annoying shit im coming across in fics and posts had the groundwork laid for it literally OVER A DECADE AGO#so like. is it a lost cause to even try and be a homestuck ‘tide turner’ in fucking 2024#what tide am i turning#most of these people are fucking gone now LMAO#quadrants#op#hsmeta

actually before i go to sleep
giving Luz the same kinda shot composition here directly after finding out what happened to King and Eda (and telling Camila that she hasn’t changed her mind about returning back to Gravesfield after rescuing the two) while dressed as Azura (someone she admires) to when Philip arrived to the isles in search and rescue for Caleb (<- if getting there was accidentally or not does not matter) while dressed in his attire or at least clothes that resembles them, truly driving home the point of how similar the two of them are and how they really are just mirrors of the other
#especially the returning back to Gravsfield line is really important to me. both of them wanted to return to a home that isn’t home because#their actual home is the people/person they want to rescue.#how they really are just the other to the left and that’s exactly how Luz and Camila escape the tragedy that Philip and Caleb couldn’t#theres more to say about this but im tiered and need to go to sleep.#but also how the collector is playing out stories they’ve been told and quit literally using the isles and it’s inhabitants to do so#the way Luz in the beginning and Philip project onto it. anyways stopping here#cause i could be talking about the Luz. Collector. Philip parallels all night. which would lead into the once with King. Eda. Caleb so on#and so forth. considering how many characters parallel each other in different ways.#like the quadrant of Caleb and Luz and Luz and Philip and Philip and Camila and Camila and Caleb once.#(<- was just about to elaborate in tags but I should just word that all out properly and make an actual post instead (well another one))#i lost my point im going to sleep. gn#philly cheese steak#meta tag#toh#the owl house#luz noceda#philip wittebane#emperor belos

You know what I like? Star Trek
#had a conversation with my sister today and kept denigrating my current passion and lifestyle but like... maybe don't do that?#listen ok I've been trying to be cool my whole life#and I have failed cause at my core I am just not a chill person#shamelessly leaning into something that I like isn't something I did openly before#and honestly? it's changed me for the better#low key it's the reason I don't have a real job right now#because I've been miserable in every structured job I've had (except for maybe college teaching)#and the last conversation I had with my grandpa before he died he asked me if I was happy because that's all that mattered#and while this little shift in existence is ridiculous in the grand scheme of what I've accomplished in my life#and hustling is harder than just showing up and getting a paycheck#and however much I'm not meeting my parents' vision of my potential#I am closer to actually being able to answer his question honestly than ever before#also it led to the wild neurodivergent revelations#so being able to declare openly that I like something is already a shift#and being able to engage with people who are honestly the most open kindest group I've ever encountered?#amazing#cause I'm actually a mega loner who barely talks to people#I'm honestly so glad I got lost in the delta quadrant cause without boyager I wouldn't have come to these conclusions#so yeah I'm kinda really into Star Trek#and if you've read this I'm sure you already know how severely uncool and locked into this I am but alas I can confirm by talking inthe tags#en fin

One thing we don't do enough with fics where the trolls are getting closer to exile is have them collectively going apeshit bananas trying to fill all their quadrants with anyone that seems good enough after their friend group gets as serendipitously matched up as it possibly can
#homestuck#not talking about the like hook-up drone season fics there's plenty#I'm talking about legit pursuing lasting romance with randos cause that's the ideal shape they're taught that quadrants should take

Twiststuck stuff i just wanna get out
Im a huge Cater multi-shipper
Normally this wouldn't be a problem
BUT I CAN'T HAVE ALMOST EVERYONE IN THIS AU HAVE A FLUSH OR PALE CRUSH ON HIM THAT'S ABSURD!!!
#froge post#twiststuck#... theres so many good ships tho.#like riddle pale crush on him would be SO cute.#Though Riddle doesn't go through with it? Buuuut still might have lingering feelings of red and pale in the future?#(I will say this; Riddle ends up breaking quads but its Trey <> riddle but Trey is also his Auspistice. This freaks him out at first)#and Idia having a flush crush would be really funny too cause of how outgoing cater is#and idia's mind is like “woa... alien find me fun to be around?” and he gets a flush crush#I've already confirmed that Jade has a Pale/Flush crush on Cater though Jade isn't sure which one it is.#Jade also seems like the kinda troll who would mix his romances like doesn't quite follow quadrants and instead breaks them#Obviously Trey and Cater being in a relationship is a thing.#past or present? idk. but they've got something going on.#Malleus <3 Cater would be so good too#Prince Malleus learning about humans/ communication and other things from Cater and gains feelings of some kind Pale to Flush or something#Pale Crush Ace i think is a good idea but then Ace gets over it pretty quick. Same with Deuce probs. (these two red tho)#ROOK AND CATER?! LIKE ok that's a biiit of a Crackship? but like here me out???#Like Rook loves learning but also he's “trapped” in that little room and manages to see the world from Cater's pictures#and falls a bit for the photographer? who manages to capture the beauty of NRCBurb or whatever i call the game dfjsalkf#Vil and Cater is also good albeit probably one-sided on Cater's part? Though I can imagine Cater doing the good ol Sacrifice for him.#Cater will throw himself in harms away alot in this au actually.#if i write a narrative for it#Kalim and Cater being “Pale” despite both being human. Like Cater reigns Kalim in from his extravagant plans with more lowkey plans#also Cater did pretty much sacrifice himself for Kalim in the Playful Land event! so there's another point for self sacrificial Cater#I saw Jamil x Cater one time and I thought that was cute so that might be a one off joke-ish moment#floyd flush crush cater is also probably a one off joke too#during the “Jade thinks Cater is a purple blood era” and then loses interest when learning Cater is human. probably#watch me come up with more after posting#HOW DID THIS GET SO LONG HELLO???#Cater Diamond#twst

omg iskra going back in time auau- but like- garak seeing two random cardassians on the station with no explanation why they r there, and they seem to know him like- what. Would they try to avoid him so he dont sus them out? what about names? They obviously cant say their surnames. And Ziyal 🥺 (sorry this is just such a edible idea anyway)
AWOOOOGH GARAK WOULD BE SO INTRIGUED! you KNOW he'd be hiding behind promenade pylons trying to get a drop on any information about the two cardassians that the captain has let stay on the station during the war against cardassia! You KNOWWW he'd be desperately trying to make eye contact with them at quark's! AND YOU KNOW ISKRA WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO RESIST THE TEMPTATION!
Unfortunately Idan is a first year starfleet student and like any student is deeply passionate about the letter and not the spirit of the law, and thinks that they should barricade themselves in their quarters so as to prevent temporal contradiction (as recommended in the textbook). Iskra, who graduated a cardassian jurisprudence apprenticeship and has a degree in comparative galactic law, recognizes that every set of regulations has loopholes just waiting to be tugged open and wiggled through. And that involves meeting all her aunts and uncles in their glory days, causing trouble, making cryptic remarks and flirting up a storm.
They probably do ask sisko to get bashir and garak off the station to minimize interference (Iskra also requests several other random crewmembers be kicked out. Just so that there's no implication about future events.) But not before she gets to meet her yadek! (and maybe get hit on by s3 era julian, eugh)
Iskra goes by her birth family name when she's not on Cardassia to minimize assassination attempts, so they're both Ghilanas (until SOMEONE hacks into the computer on their rented shuttle and finds their ID info...)
And also Ziyal... wary of two shiny young cardassians but still trying to put on a brave face...swept up by their openness and enthusiasm but deeply wary of the secret they seem to be hiding...
#dee s 9#garashir adoption au#AUUGUHGHGHGH IVE BEEN TURNING THIS AUAU OVER IN MY HEAD LIKE A BEAUTIFUL LITTLE PEBBLE AND NOW ITS ALL SMOOTH!#i know jumja sticks arent cold but in my heart theyre popsicles. cause a big lukewarm chunk of sugar aint it#not pictured: iskra dressing in her two (2) Nice Outfits#she was picking Idan up from his first year internship in the gamma quadrant to take him home for garak and bashirs 25 year anniversary#and they ran into.......time.... issues..... in the wormhole#idan keeps Snapping To Attention around senior officers#and humming vintage earth tunes#so sisko clocks something going on immediately. if the tail wasnt a giveaway.#like I am not sure that the beastie boys are a cardassian cultural import. this boy is not from Our Cardassia. And he keeps saluting me.#idan is just sooo so so so. so happy to meet Captain Sisko. but he also so so so wants to not fuck up spacetime#while his sister is lying on captain kiras desk in a cocktail gown with a rose betwixt her teeth#garak: *says something cryptic and suggestive* iskra: *says something cryptic and suggestive back* idan: *sips rootbeer loudly*#anyways thank u as always for the oc asks i cannot get over them#i LOVEEEE the excuse to do more...#nog jake alexander idan crew. just boys being boys. just guys causing mischief

ao3 utilizing X/Y and X&Y tags are really great but i wish there was a XvsY tag sometimes LMAO
#our t#XvsY is like one of my main 'shipping' modes like- brodirk or bro/ultdirk is XvsY to me cause they have Tension but#ultdirk also HATES bro and thats the point of their dynamic to me#dirkhal however is X/Y cause i wanna see them mack on eachother and have every kind of tension unlimited by romance/platonic#attraction. theyre beyond quadrants. ot3 in the classic sense of the term. Just Clone Things[tm]#fandom is built on the shoulders of shipping and i think thats a good thing bc its fun! its other people not making it fun thats#the problem to me & makes me wanna stay in my isolated corner#i dont think we should project irl morality onto shipping in any direction bc its all just legos#doesnt mean other fans arent irritating af tho. hs shippers were why we dropped outta the fandom for so long i wont lie#the fuckin FIGHTS man its hell. its hell!

hey guys i think im out of the trauma spiral my ex-quadmate put me in <- he is, in fact, not out of the trauma spiral his ex-quadmate put him in
#minding my own business when i out-of-nowhere remember the multiple times she caused me to panic by dumping a lot of heavy#terrifying things onto me which made me terrified of enjoying any free-time i had because “what if something goes wrong while im away”#it threw me full-force back into my “im going to sleep all the time” phase because. at least towards the end i was terrified all the time#because at any point something could go Wrong and i would have to fix it#she broke the promise we made about telling each other about any quadrant stuff#and entered a moirallegience with someone without fucking telling me#she got mad at me for doing what she wanted because. fucking thats just a thing shes allowed to do#left me to think she killed herself twice despite the fact she was watching me the entire time while i fucking panicked#and then said she “didnt want to/didnt enjoy it” as if it just HAPPENED and she didnt fucking Plan that#knowingly put me under tremendous stress despite knowing i have a cardiovascular condition that has placed me in heart attack-range before#reportedly shit-talked me behind my back the entire time we were together (and i whole-heartedly believe the person who told me#because thats the kind of shit she did)#and nobody else in her system even thought to say “oh yeah lol this is like. bad. this guy is being abused by our sysmate”#i went for almost an entire year in invisible on discord because i was terrified of people messaging me#i STILL have all discord sound notifs turned off because it makes me panic#i barely spoke with my friends and had to constantly check discord /while in school/ because of her#and like. even disregarding all the shit she did to ME. she was just a fucking awful person#just. genuinely terrible to be around#but yk#whatevs

Honestly having discovered BDStudio has been a boon for my map. Next update is going to have so many new custom models, I can't wait to release it As an example, have this slight teaser for the next update
#mechquest#minecraft#alpha quadrant map#Yeah I'm still working on it I know I haven't posted about it in a while#I kinda had a brief burn out caused by overextending myself while working on Romero#combined with the lack of visible interest in the map kinda killing mine#But taking a brief break by working on Yokai instead got my motivation back up and running#Dunno when I'll release the next update but probably at some point soon-ish?#And yes I did pick a BDStudio build that teases the upcoming content on purpose

Fight me
#now we just fucking around#it’s like being pecked to death by ducks#early seasons she didn’t wanna fight enough so moved some of her PERPETUALLY PISSED later seasons attitude earlier#i know it’s bad there was no ref but then it made me laugh at how bad it is#the first version she has so much neck like a heckin giraffe#the first sketch (on paper) she had so much neck like a heckin’ giraffe#make bad art or whatever#im having fun and that’s what matters right probably not oh we’ll fight me#mostly color picked from an lcars console cause no rules who cares#can i blame the 4pm coffee? yeah no probably not#oh god go to bed what are you doing thresholdbb get a life touch grass stop being so weird#hopelessly LOST IN THE DELTA QUADRANT#gonna repeat don’t get a brain injury all your skills go out the dang window#im sorry I’ll look for where the multitudes went

homestuck shipping just rooted itself so deeply into my brain that I had to explain quadrants to my joyfriend so they would understand why I said "I ship it" when talking about Vox and Alastor and got a weird look
#i ship it kismis#cause it gave me that vibe#but the only way to explain it to them is to explain quadrants!!

So now that I know your a Homestuck, who was your favorite troll and who was your favorite kid?
ur asking a lot from me here. publicly exposing myself AND having to remember things that happened more than a week ago.
anyways my favorite kid was probably dave and my favorite troll was karkat. idk what that says about me but it probably means i have basic taste
#and then i found out i was one of the el gee bee tee youths several months after i caught up for the first time#cause and effect???#i was also fond of terezi and roxy#pip speaks#someone joked that i should do the leprechaun romance now that i did the quadrants#i'm gonna be honest. my eyes glazed over at that part and i have no idea how any of that works nor do i want to know

postwar cardassia :: postwar germany, after a few years of abject disaster they hit an economic miracle based on tech innovation and end up with a striking half rubble/half high rise postapocalyptic thing. ally with romulas and the klingons. get a very mod fashion reboot. i want romulan bobs to be the newest thing on cardassia prime
#dee s 9#maybe im just spieling cause my family lived thru it#pic of oma serving looks in front of a bombed out berlin building#am always fascinated by the postempire experience#little jadzia bouffants and big clunky heels! and scandalously low necklines!#the romulan shoulder pads for young professional ladies pantsuits!#1950s communism era klingon romulan cardassian alliance propaganda art campaigning against federation cultural assimilation#oogh the seething shame of having to accept federation charity while also resenting that they dont get as much as actual federation planets#so much cultural guilt/resentment/hypercompensatory pride#castellan garak's aggressive campaign of friendship with the non federation aligned powerhouses#“I want to make enemies of no-one” he says. “at least to their faces”#is he playing the long game to establish a union to counterbalance the federation? or just desperately trying to stay relevant?#or does he really just want cardassians to have access to romulan ale that much.#big alpha quadrant youtube meme “my klingon pen pal tries kanar GENUINE REACTION 🤪😱”#i like 2 think that their leaders all try to sweep their beef with each other under the rug for the sake of politics.#sometimes you do shit during war. like take over someone else's colonies while theyre already down. it happens.#but vorta? it's on sight. vorta open season in the alpha quadrant
