ROSE: SLUUUUUUUUUURRRRP.

DAVE: dammit

DAVE: rose dont drink so loud its messing up my raps

DAVE: i can actually hear your sips through my headphones

ROSE: Yea well,,

ROSE: I can her your rasps through your whipsers.

ROSE: *Whipspers...

ROSE: *Whip..

ROSE: ......

ROSE: Zers.

ROSE: ;)

ROSE: HIC!!!

DAVE: oh my god

DAVE: you are so fucking hammered

DAVE: how strong did you even make that stuff

ROSE: Iss,

ROSE: Prehhhhtay strong I geush?

ROSE: Whups. Guesh?

ROSE: *Guessss.

ROSE: Eheh.

DAVE: pretty strong

DAVE: rose you just bootlegged some fucking rubbing alcohol

ROSE: Pshf. ..

ROSE: Overaeact much?

ROSE: I'm yam completally in command of my faculities.

DAVE: faculity isnt a word check mate

DAVE: this kinda strikes me as a sort of misappropriation of alchemy

DAVE: like fucking with the mystical technology of creation to whip up some moonshine just seems

DAVE: i dunno man

DAVE: tell me you at least alchemized a bathtub first to stir this shit in

DAVE: at least that would be hilarious

ROSE: Iii,

ROSE: Omg, you're right, I messed a golden opportutiny for a puticularly humoroush approach to this endeavor... :(

DAVE: and where the FUCK is my applejuice rose

DAVE: gotta say

DAVE: you really let me down on the aj front

ROSE: I tried!!

ROSE: I tried making it...

ROSE: Is was HARD, Dave.

ROSE: (Sluuurp.)

DAVE: bullshit it was hard

DAVE: whats so hard about applejuice its like

DAVE: the most basic goddamn juice

DAVE: like the square one of juice

ROSE: Yes, tha's the POINT!

ROSE: Apples are stalartingly difficulf to reproduce.

ROSE: We take for granned our ability to take idealized intsances ofeven quie comlicated objects and conshure them from the void.

ROSE: But compalexity implies a heavilly recombinatife nature.. So.. so many things are synesthized from a series of mushh simpler ideas!

ROSE: To those ennities capable of, of conceshualization and absraction, an apple is as closed to being a noshushnally irredushible object as it gets....

ROSE: Ahem. *Notionally,

ROSE: **Irr, ed, ducible.

ROSE: Tell me, hoch shot, what ideas would you combide to make and apple?

DAVE: uh

ROSE: Exaaalley/.

ROSE: Thusis why apples are sush indivisible symbols, when it comes to thefield of ideas and their reducshunistHIC!!!!! reductionishtic essence from the perispective of humans in paticular.

ROSE: Both from a stantpoint of cultrulal and mytholurgical singificence,, and from a pratical one a swell, if you happen to fine yourself acshualy trying to ENGINEEEer one.

ROSE: Why do you thing, HIC!!! Why do you think Adam mand Eve were punished for biting in to one??

ROSE: They attemped to pentetrate an indivisible unit, uf fundamenetal knowledge. To consume the interior of a thought whish cantot be reduced any further.

ROSE: This knowleshe was for BIDDEN..! Hic. So humanity was forever bandished to live in sin, and, hass strive ever sinse to redeem isself from the hubrinse of this innallectual foily.

ROSE: Hahaha! , Foily.

ROSE: *FOLLY. :)

ROSE: Or what about, the tale of Isaac Newdon under the tree?? He was BONKED on the head by an apple.

ROSE: Not reallyan apple though... an atomic idea. An emlemental unit of inspripation itself, id clocked him right on then noggin.

ROSE: And this indivisible notion colliding with hish awareness, much like.. . a high speed partical fired to create a nuculear chain reacation, jarred from the void a more profund unnerstand, HIC, ing of the intrinsic nature of nothiness. Thatis,. Gravivitation.

ROSE: Of course thess stories are acutually bullshit. They didn't happen in realaity. But thef act that they'rare bullshit makes them more inshresting.

ROSE: Men have crefted many stories that are bullshit out of symbols risen from the abyss of coinsciousness withou necesharily knowing whath e fuck they were doing or saying, as they flounered around for some truth.

ROSE: Bust in spite of themseleves they would for howefer briefly cross through a ray of light regarless. Becuss of the sbymbols. Dave.. The symbols hol dall the power.

DAVE: well shit

DAVE: looks like i wandered into a really weird uncharted side of town tonight

DAVE: its called the drunk rose district

DAVE: and i am scared out of my fucking mind

ROSE: For a guay whos's supposedly, an I quote, "so cool,"

ROSE: You relly are almost comically up tight.

ROSE: Here, why don't you have some...

DAVE: no!

ROSE: What a prune.

ROSE: *Prude.

ROSE: Hic.

DAVE: i told you i dont want any of your experimental fucking spacewizard booze

DAVE: id rather not go blind

DAVE: then terezi will have to teach me to lick shit to see

DAVE: is that what you want do you want me licking everything in sight

DAVE: like oh hey mayor SLURP oh fuck youre not the mayor youre my goddamn sister

ROSE: AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! ;D

DAVE: oh my god

DAVE: you laughed way too hard at that it wasnt anywhere close to that funny

DAVE: i think youve had enough

ROSE: *Siiip.*

ROSE: Whaa?

DAVE: good lord

DAVE: i still dont know why you were so bent on making this liquor

DAVE: i thought you werent really that down with the drinkin

DAVE: you never liked it when your mom drank what happened to that

DAVE: and you would still be all coy like IS IT A DATE OR ISNT IT HMMMM WHO CAN REALLY SAY FOR SURE???

KANAYA: Well

KANAYA: Im Still Amenable To An Evening Of

KANAYA: Is There Some Reason Why You Would Advise Otherwise Dave

KANAYA: I Will Have To Plead Ignorance On The Subject Of Human Courtship And Its Customs When It Involves One Or More Intoxicated Participants

KANAYA: Is There A Problem

DAVE: a problem

DAVE: uh

DAVE: i dunno if youre cool with your date slurring words and making no damn sense about apples then

KANAYA: Okay Good

KANAYA: Lets Go

KANAYA: Since Its Now Clear That Your Premeditated Designs On This Evening Exceeded My Own By A Wide Margin

KANAYA: Insofar As You Intended This To Be A Date With Fancy Clothes Whereas I Showed Up Looking Like Something The Lusus Dragged In

KANAYA: Maybe You Can Tell Me Now Exactly What You Had In Mind

KANAYA: I Mean

KANAYA: As Far As Specific Activities Are Concerned

ROSE: Noupe!

ROSE: Wohoops.

KANAYA: Its Really Okay Though

KANAYA: I Admit I Was Irked For A Moment But Then Realized It Was So Unlike You That Extenuating Circumstances Were Most Likely In Play

KANAYA: So I Went To Find You And Lo And Behold

KANAYA: Extenuation Was What I Found To Be Taking Place

ROSE: Omg.

ROSE: Kangaya,.

ROSE: I 'm.

ROSE: Soooo extenuated righ now.

ROSE: !

KANAYA: What

ROSE: Dish you hear something?

KANAYA: No Hear What

ROSE: Yes.

ROSE: Shhh!

ROSE: . .

ROSE: ...

ROSE: .,

ROSE: ,..

KANAYA: (what are we listening for)

ROSE: Erh, nothing I gues.

ROSE: Annyway.

ROSE: I just thouh that,

ROSE: Tonight...

ROSE: We could just walk a round for a while an talk.

ROSE: About relly anything. Like...

ROSE: Our worls, or, the fushure, or,

ROSE: How you'are going to save your speshies. :)

KANAYA: Yes That Sounds Nice

ROSE: Just have a casusal, spoptaneous evening. I don' .. hic, I don't ses why dates have to alayways be,

ROSE: A felderal fucking eschew. Dono't you agree?

ROSE: !!

ROSE: Kaynaya.

ROSE: Can you kep a secret?

KANAYA: Yes

ROSE: I learned somethin earlier today.

ROSE: It was trobuling.

ROSE: Something about,

ROSE: Teresi.

ROSE: Aand,

ROSE: ...

KANAYA: And What

ROSE: And Gamshee.

KANAYA: !!!

ROSE: See...

ROSE: I bumped into him earliar.

KANAYA: You Did

KANAYA: Where??

ROSE: No no please, pleeasse don't get angry, and. ..

ROSE: Go on another vengeful clown hunting espedition, I...

ROSE: This is the point, this is was troubling me abou this.

ROSE: I don't want anyone to fight!

KANAYA: Actually

KANAYA: Theres No Need To Worry About That

KANAYA: I Think Im Done Trying To Kill Him

ROSE: You are?

KANAYA: Yeah

KANAYA: He Has Achieved Victory Through The Gambit Of Cowards Default

KANAYA: Dont Get Me Wrong He Is Still Utterly Awful

KANAYA: But Sometimes You Just Have To Let A Thing Go

KANAYA: You Know

ROSE: Yeahhh,

KANAYA: What Were You Saying About Terezi And Gamzee

ROSE: Righ, well apparenly they..

ROSE: Are.

ROSE: An item?

ROSE: Blackways, I mean.

KANAYA: What

ROSE: The y'are spades dating. In theh shadowns... nobody knows. But me. An now,

ROSE: You.

KANAYA: Are You Serious

ROSE: Yesh!!

ROSE: And it's been troubling me, the more I thing about it.

ROSE: All lot.

KANAYA: Why

ROSE: Because it presends a prickly prolitical sishuation.

ROSE: Terezi's relationship with Karkant is already somewhat tenuous, with their... well from, what I've gathered, about their hishtory.

ROSE: And Dave! His involovment makes in even more complicated, and,

ROSE: I think, with Karkat being moirails to Gamzee, if he finds out Gamzee iss spades with Tetreezi, then...

ROSE: Correct me if I'm wrong but isin't that whole arrangemen getting into territory of social taboob?

ROSE: * Tabob. Escuse me.

KANAYA: That Could Be Very Awkward Yes

ROSE: Right!!

ROSE: I don't no if it's my ser powers or what, but, HIC, I can see it unfolting all too clearly.

ROSE: Karkast finds out about it and flies inno a rage. It ruins hish moirlallegelleninance... I mean his moiraHIC!.. It ruins his diamonds with Gamzee, who thefore becomes less stable.

ROSE: And he villifies Trepezi as well, and who knows how she reacs. Or what happens with Dave for that matter.

ROSE: Would Dave actually be aright wich Terezi dating a psychotic clown on th side, even if its is a releationship centered around only enmity? I kinof doubt it.

ROSE: He could side with Korkat on the matter.. Not even tos peak of where your alignment is on the subjech of Gamzeen.

ROSE: Which is, what I fear. I'm afraid that,

ROSE: This could create a schisasm in our group, that we could all be torn apart.

ROSE: And I don't wand that!!!!!

ROSE: I want us all to stay friends, and jus be... peaceful togehter. :(

KANAYA: Me Too

KANAYA: I Can See The Dilemma Here

KANAYA: Are You Actually Thinking About

KANAYA: Um

KANAYA: Doing Something About This

ROSE: I dun't know!!!

ROSE: Maybe I shouldn't intrefere with their kishmeshishit... kshimimishimesh.. Aw fuck.

ROSE: Their hate dating.

ROSE: Maybe it's..

ROSE: Just a wonderful thing for them. An I would beh hoorible to inerfere, with their..

ROSE: Beaufiful hate?

ROSE: The problem is, it's still soo alien to me. The idea of blapck romance.

ROSE: I try to understand, sometimes, like, more than inteclectually. I try to, put myself in the shoes of FEELING that an...

ROSE: It still dosn't make sense to me.

ROSE: I don't want to project my human valuesh on to an alien relationship I dispapprove of.

KANAYA: I Understand

KANAYA: But What Youre Describing Is

KANAYA: Hmm

KANAYA: Actually Im Hesitant To Even Mention It

ROSE: No, what!

KANAYA: This Is Probably Not A Good Idea

ROSE: Oh, puleashe. You KNOW you have to tall me now.

KANAYA: The Feelings You Are Having Are Actually Perfectly Normal Within The Framework Of Our Quadrant Based Romantic Tradition

KANAYA: I Dont Know If They Can Be Felt Naturally By Humans But The Way You Are Viewing Their Relationship Would Be Quite A Standard Response On Alternia

ROSE: Yeah??

KANAYA: Yes

KANAYA: It Is Sanctioned Within The Ashen Quadrant

KANAYA: Which Addresses Conciliatory Romantic Feelings Not Directed At A Single Person

KANAYA: But At Two People Who Are Presently In Such A Contentious Relationship

ROSE: Oh shitch... I forgot about that..

ROSE: You're right, :o

KANAYA: It Is Generally Not Regarded As One Of The More Emotionally Fulfilling Quadrants To Become Involved In

KANAYA: And Can Be Quite Laborious To Maintain

KANAYA: But It Served A Very Important Social Purpose For My People

KANAYA: Such As In Situations Very Similar To The One You Described

KANAYA: Where Two Parties Are Highly Drawn To Each Other Through Animosity

KANAYA: They May In Fact Be Perfect For Each Other In That Tumultuous Quadrant

KANAYA: But To Pursue The Relationship Would Be Chaos

KANAYA: Much Like The Scenario You Laid Out The Two Kismeses If Left Unchecked Would Devastate All Their Other Relationships

KANAYA: Those In Their Own Quadrants And Even Those In Other Peoples

KANAYA: So It Is The Job Of An Auspistice To Make Sure That Doesnt Happen

ROSE: Yes...

ROSE: .

ROSE: hic.

ROSE: .

ROSE: YES.....

ROSE: KANAYA THAT IS EXAGLY WHAT I NEED TO DO!!!

KANAYA: Oh No

KANAYA: Really

ROSE: Absoulutely.

ROSE: I haf never been so shure.. about, anything.

ROSE: Well maybe, almost anaything.. :), but yes.

KANAYA: I Dont Think I Would Advise It

KANAYA: Its Extremely Difficult And Can Often Feel Like A Thankless Undertaking

KANAYA: In Truth It Is Probably The Most Challenging Quadrant To Master

KANAYA: Trust Me

ROSE: I believe you.

ROSE: But I wants to know.

ROSE: Can you teach me?

KANAYA: I

KANAYA: ...

ROSE: There's so mouch I just don't understand.

ROSE: About your romanse, but,

ROSE: I'm soi curious.

ROSE: I try to understand the concept of either contentatious or plastonic relationships as something that...

ROSE: Can be parshed through the emotions assoliated with romance but,,

ROSE: It still doesn't realay compute to me.

KANAYA: I Really

KANAYA: Dont Know If I Would Be A Good Teacher

KANAYA: Of Auspisticism

KANAYA: I Honestly Was Not Very Good At It Myself

ROSE: Tha's fine..

ROSE: Forget aushpipshit...

ROSE: Auspishtishimish..

ROSE: Good damn.

ROSE: Forget specificulty that right now,.

ROSE: I want...

ROSE: You to teach me evvverrreeything!

KANAYA: Everything

ROSE: Yez.

KANAYA: That Is

KANAYA: A Lot Of Things

ROSE: I want you... to,

ROSE: Teash me ALL the quadrans.

ROSE: I want you toot,

ROSE: Tell me about your spabes,

ROSE: Your didamounds,

ROSE: I wank you to,

ROSE: Share wish me yur clumbs...

ROSE: And your hearst.

ROSE: I want..

ROSE: Yuouo....

[lime-bloods]

I've been really enjoying your posts on black holes and homes as sources of gravity (as I understand the posts so far). Out of curiosity, what do you make of page 5404, where Drunk Rose describes in drunk babble that Gravitation itself is somehow related to "the intrinsic nature of nothingness"? Combined with a few of the screenshots you've taken, it feels like you're hitting on something close to Void as a thematic presence in Homestuck to me, but bugger me if I know what it is!

My instinct is that Rose has reached the same conclusion I have: that 'gravity', as a metonym for the influence of a black hole, is just the inevitable pull towards oblivion. I think she's using "nothingness" as a euphemism for "space", over which gravity has dominion, but through this we can start to appreciate how the concepts of Space and Void weave into each other ("nothingness", "space" and "void" all being functional synonyms).

Understanding that Rose's lapse into alcoholism is her own way of succumbing to 'gravity' - a pull towards toxic familial cycles which not only evokes Vriska's own "addiction" to breaking 8-balls but also literally surrounds the drinker in a dark pocket - her allusions to the Void and gravity here are also tinged by her own experience and outlook as a Seer of Light (who heavily relied on a magic cue ball as her source; a fountain of information which is symbolically opposed to the information-consuming black hole). In particular, the idea that the gravity/knowledge contained within the apple was "for BIDDEN..!" feels like it harkens back to Rose's own quest for forbidden knowledge, which led ultimately to her first foray into the dark. (Like a sun collapsing in on itself, in her hunger for information Rose becomes the black hole in a simultaneously Biblical-and-Newtonian fall-from-grace-cum-moment-of-inspiration. Oh, hey, exactly like Kanaya said would happen!)

But through allusions to Adam and Eve, and the plucking of primordial ideas "from the void" or "the abyss of coinsciousness", we also get the sense that nothingness is the substrate from which things are born - in a manner of speaking, "the Void" here is an ideological incestuous slurry. Just as the void consists of the aspects of creation so "closely woven together [...] that they are barely separable", all things are eventually pulled by forces of gravity (or inevitability, or Time, or whatever name suits them in the context), manifested as a black hole, into nothingness... just to be mixed up and recombined again in Paradox Space's great masturbatory cycle of life and death, like English being born again and again in countless universes. And what Rose "take[s] for granned", about the ease of creating complex objects and the difficulty of creating simple ones, is the exact opposite problem to what the Rogue of Void experiences.

I don't know if I'm HAPPY with these answers, per se... Rose's rant is so rich with imagery I feel like I should be able to give you one, cohesive answer rather than 2-3 smaller fragmented ones. Perhaps that's sort of the point - in her drunkenness, Rose has access to this veritably spaghetti heap of interwoven ideas, but lacks the vision to line them up into a unified Point? But I can't help but feel like that's a cop-out.

Thanks so much for asking though!

Adam and Eve and the Apples

Adam and Eve is a tale about the first man and woman, isolated on a garden, after biting the fruit of forbidden knowledge, they are kicked out by doing the one thing they were supposed to not do.

Fruit of forbidden knowledge. Also y’know, June Egbert. Iconic trans woman, Eve came from Adam. Get it? Geeeeeeeet it?

Adam and Eve is just a very trans coded story. And speaking of only man and woman on the planet.

Only man and woman on the planet.

Transfem Roxy and Transmasc Dirk are very popular readings on them, and it certainly puts a new light on how over performative on their feminine and masculine personas they are, Gamer Girl and Swordsman.

Forbidden knowledge also fits in here somewhat, they are the ones who knew of HIC and the fate of the world, they were isolated on their little gardens.

With their little snakes.

Also I want to put Lilith here too. I can link to some articles on that but Lilith was a figure that appears on the bible as Adam’s first wife, who didn’t want to be subservient of Adam and fucked off with an Angel.

And there are two figures associated with angels that connect to Dirk and Roxy.

And the great thing here is that they both play into the Role of Adam and Eve(and Lilith), they each have their snakes, and angels. And I guess the forbidden knowledge would be Roxy+Outer Ring and Dirk+Going Ultimate.

To close that off I just want to mention that on page 5404 Rose has a drunk rant on the symbology behind Apples, and I really recommend reading the whole thing, because there’s a lot more symbology here. And you could also connect Dave’s love for apples here somehow.

NAMES OF PROPHETS AND THEIR SUCCESSORS.

Imam Jafar Al-Sadiq (as) Narrated:

Prophet Muhammad (saww) Said:

I am the master of the Prophets;

my successors is the master of successors; and his successors are the masters of the successors.

That Adam (as) asked Allah (swt) to make for him a righteous successor so Allah (swt) revealed to him, “I honored the Prophets with Prophethood, and I chose the best of my creations as their successors.

O Adam! (as) Make Sheeth (as) your successor.

So he appointed Sheeth (as) as his successor.

And Sheeth (as) was a gift from Allah (swt) and Sheeth (as) appointed his son Shabban (as) as his successor.

He Shabbaan (as), is from the descent of a Huuree that Allah (swt) sent to Adam (as) from Jannah (heaven) and he married her to his son, Sheeth.

And Shabbaat (as) appointed Mujallath (as) as his successor;

And Mujallath (as) appointed Mahqooq (as) as his successor;

And Mahqooq (as) appointed Ghuthmayshaa (`Uthmayshaa) (as) as his successor;

And Ghuthmayshaa (as) appointed Akhnookh, and he is Prophet Idrees (as) as his successor;

And Idrees (as) appointed Naahoor (as) as his successor;

And Naahoor (as) paid (appointed) Prophet Nuhu (as) as his successor;

And Nuhu (as) appointed Saam (as) as his successor;

And Saam (as) appointed `Athaamir (as) as his successor;

And `Athaamir (as) appointed Bar`aythaashaa (Bar`aythaathaa) (as) as his successor;

And Bar`aythaashaa (Bar`aythaatha) (as) appointed Yaafith (as) as his successor;

And Yaafith (as) appointed Barrah (as) as his successor;

And Barrah (as) appointed Jafasayyah (Jafeesah) (as) as his successor;

And Jafasayyah (Jafeesah) (as) appointed `Imraan (as) as his successor;

And `Imraan (as) paid (appointed) Ibraheem Khaleel of Allah (as) as his successor;

And Ibraheem (as) appointed Isma`eel (as) as his successor;

And Isma`eel (as) appointed IsHaaq (as) as his successor;

And IsHaaq (as) appointed Ya`quub (as) as his successor;

And Ya`quub (as) appointed Yussuf (as) as his successor;

And Yussuf (as) appointed Bathariyyaa’ (as) as his successor;

And Bathariyyaa’ (as) appointed Shu`ayb (as) as his successor;

And Shu`ayb (as) paid (appointed) Musa bin `Imraan (as) as his successor;

And Musa bin `Imraan (as) appointed Yusha` bin Nuun (as) as his successor;

And Yusha` bin Nuun (as) appointed Dawuud (as) as his successor;

And Dawuud (as) appointed Sulayman (as) as his successor;

And Sulayman (as) appointed AaSif bin Barkhiyyah (as) as his successor;

And AaSif bin Barkhiyyah (as) appointed Zakariah (as) as his successor;

And Zakariah (as) paid (appointed) `Eisa bin Maryam (as) as his successor;

And `Eisa bin Mariam (as) appointed Sham`uun bin Hamuun Al-Saffaa (as) as his successor;

And Sham`uun (as) appointed Yahya bin Zakariah (as) as his successor;

and Yahya bin Zakariah (as) appointed Mundhir (as) as his succesor

And Mundhir (as) appointed Sulaymah (as) as his successor;

And Sulaymah (as) appointed Bardah (as) as his successor;

Then the messenger of Allah (saww) said: “And I was appointed by Bardah (as). O `Ali, and I will appoint you as my successor. And you will appoint the successors after you from your sons and they will appoint their sons one after another until it gets to the best of the people of earth after you. And the ummah will disbelieve in you, and there will be differences about you, great differences. Those who stay firm with you will reside with me in heaven, and the other odd people from you will be in the hell fire, and the hell fire is for the disbelievers.

That Death Does Wait

by semanticsofcannibalism

Peter Parker is twelve years old and angry at the world.

But Peter doesn't have the time to be angry. Everybody wants something from him.

May wants him to be safe.

Ben wants him to be kind.

Ned wants him to be happy.

He tries. He tries to be safe and to be kind and to be happy.

He tries and tries until he can’t take it anymore.

Peter Parker is twelve years old and angry at the world, but this time he’s going to do something about it.

(Peter Parker finds himself on a vendetta for justice and stumbles into a blind man with far too much empathy and a devil in his heart on the way.)
