which of your fantrolls are derse and which are prospit. and do you believe there's a meaningful divide?

these guys inherited their dream moons pretty straightforwardly from the characters they were inspired by.

dream moon feels kind of like the most astrology esque of all of homestuck's astrology type systems LOL in that basically all of the characters inherited them based on totally arbitrary circumstance (same moon as the rest of my family members, same moon as the rest of the players who wanted to join team vriska / team equius, etc.) and the comic never once seems to try to explain it in any deeper terms than that. so any analysis of what they might mean is just trying to find patterns in disparate personalities. (i guess dream moon being significant is a real thing now that it's included in the official aspect test but i'm not even going to bother looking those up because i don't really care that much. lol)

there are some interpretations i've found interesting.. like prospit dreamers playing active roles and being protagonists while derse dreamers are behind the scenes actors and backgrounders is so obviously true but it also seems so redundantly similar to active + passive classes. and the one about prospit dreamers being upfront with their personalities and derse dreamers hiding behind a mask is fun for explaining oddities like dersite nepeta but falls apart for other characters.

so i've never once thought about what moon "fits" a character before deciding where they go, i 100% always just sort them towards the beginning of the design process and then soooometimes when i develop a character further i will take their lunar sway into account and think about how it might contribute to their personality or arc. but it's usually a more personalised thing, like, what does being on prospit or on derse mean to that character in particular.. so i wouldn't say i think of there being a "divide" between the two. their significances can vary. while being a derse dreamer obviously doesn't MAKE you a villain for instance it's easy to justify why a villain might belong on derse and a dersite villain might be very different to a prospitian villain. <- thinking about it harder right now than i probably ever have before in my life

Why does hemera not have eyebrows? Does she shave them off?

she just doesn't grow much hair anywhere... it's not her fault...

can we get some crumbs of info about hemera

hemera comes from the same tradition of terminally-online and nihilistically irony-poisoned lowbloods as braxas, but having cut her teeth as a Girl on the internet she's very much aware of how she can take advantage of what assets she has to get what she wants out of people - like her immense psionic power, for instance. it's not that the role of ditzy blondeblood is an "act" for her, but it's not like she just fell into being a royal starship pilot and live-in moirail by complete accident, either. for the most part hemera does shit because she wants to do it. she isn't necessarily manipulative or duplicitous but she's definitely mastered the necessary art of keeping shit to herself when it isn't relevant to other people
