Where in Beyond Canon is Arquisprite?
Took inspiration from the above post by @pastabaguette and decided to expand upon it due to The Plot Point update as well as some stuff seen even before Vriska’s arc started in The Point.
Let's examine some stuff that may tell us where Arquiusprite is at this time, seeing as we seemingly have only one chapter in The Point left. I think we've got a lead on his whereabouts already.
We've got horses and horse-adjacent creatures.
We've got a robot that looks like it's literally ripped from Equius' hive with a notable missing horn hole and a dent in the head.
There's also this twitter response from James Roach which could be interpreted as suggesting Equius' return in some way at some point in the future.
OP, I'm not saying you're right, but I am saying that if Dirk were to consult anyone on horses, it would probably be a mashup of his AI & Equius. Also Void player behavior apparently! Also Dirk has narrative reality warpy powers & we aren't sure as to the limits of those yet!
Below are some reddit notes about classpects that also lead credence to the idea that Arquisrpite is on Deltritus with Dirk at this time. Outside of the obvious fact that we haven't seen him in The Plot Point or the bonus comics with Jasprosesprite at all as of the Davepetasprite^2 feather chapter release.
Are the robots in case Terezi goes ultimate? Are they backup bodies for Rosebot? A metal body for Arquisprite? Who knows, maybe all three! 🤷♀️ Robots are being made by someone though (for some purpose) and they have troll horn slots on their craniums. The exact style robot that Equius used to make back on Alternia; so, make of that what you will!
Also maybe they just need a sprite to kick off whatever makeshift sburb/sgrub copycat they're trying to get running and seeing as Arquiusprite is a splinter of Dirk, it's fitting that he would accompany him. Plus the sprites can kind of just seem to be wherever & whenever the story needs them to be? Seeing as how Jasprose kidnapped Jane in the meat timeline, but in the candy timeline the sprites just kind of seemed to not do much or be absent entirely after a certain point.
There's at least a guaranteed non-zero chance Arquiusprite is on Deltritus.
#linked two versions of the post for preservation purposes as a just in case kind of thing#I'm basically copy pasting what I put under the original post since I know people aren't necessarily going to see it if it's only over ther#as for if arquius gets a robot body like Aradia did is yet to be seen and could honestly go either way; maybe he's just helping make robots#maybe he's helping do game prep in whatever cracked version of sburb Dirk and Rose are trying to force into existence on deltritus#would be pretty ironic if we end up with an arquiusbot situation given part of him was the reason aradiabot existed and was a whole thing#I'm calling it though Equius and lil hal are going to be hanging out with Ult Dirk in his man cave or whatever or making robots for him#it just feels like all the pieces are lining up for this one; unless he randomly shows up in the 8ball upd8 at some point lol#also very weird how he hasn't even been name dropped or mentioned yet which makes it seem like he's being saved for something#I went all in on this one pretty early into the plot point arc as soon as I didn't see him with the other sprites I was like hmmm 👀#something is definitely off about this because even fefetasprite was there but she was thought no longer to exist yet no arquius#mine#op#homestuck theory#homestuck beyond canon#hsbc#homestuck#arquiusprite#dirk strider#equius zahhak#lil hal#homestuck spoilers#homestuck upd8#upd8 spoilers#flashing images#flashing colors
