Roxy Lalonde, Rose Lalonde, Kanaya Maryam, Dave Strider

Act 6, page 7493-7496

ROXY: haha im sorry

ROSE: Sorry about what?

ROXY: for stammering an all being an agog grinning idiot

ROXY: i just cannot....

ROXY: actually believe u are real and here and alive and not dying and so am i!

ROXY: here with u i mean + sharin all those mentioned attributes

ROSE: I can't believe it either!

ROXY: i have so much to say...

ROXY: i think???

ROXY: even though i cant think of the stuff atm

ROSE: I know what you mean.

ROXY: i hope its ok if i just sit near u not bein 'specially articulate for a bit

ROSE: That is more than ok.

ROSE: As long as you are willing to similarly excuse the spectacular demise of my capacity for artful self-expression.

ROXY: omg!!!!

ROXY: ahahah youre dirk!

ROXY: wow wow i just caught it wow wow wow!

ROXY: you sound SO much like him oh my GOD thats too perf and cute :3

ROSE: Dirk?

ROXY: hahah i cant get over it now i cant unhear it...

ROXY: even your voice sounds kinda like his but its just... girl dirk

ROXY: lmao wow yes <3

ROSE: He sounds like a hell of a guy.

ROXY: ohh u have noo idea

ROSE: Well, I'm told he should be arriving here in a little while.

ROSE: If he's anything like Dave's late older brother, and if he's anything like me, which he apparently is, then this is when I'm guessing the real party will begin.

ROXY: im redy <|:)

ROSE: I want to know things about him.

ROSE: Such as, if he shares his elder counterpart's avarice for soft puppet ass.

ROSE: And if that, combined with his myriad, vaguely unsettling psychological peculiarities, could occupy a dedicated team of therapists for years.

ROXY: the answer is yes and yes

ROSE: Hmm.

ROSE: Knowing this amuses me, for some reason.

ROSE: But mainly, there are things I want to know about you.

ROSE: I presume there will be plenty of time later to hound my biological father for the dirt on his proclivities.

ROXY: whatta ya wanna know about me?

ROSE: Everything!

ROSE: I think the main difficulty in deciding what to ask is in sifting questions I would have for my mother, that is to say, the woman who raised me, from the questions I have for you.

ROXY: well i didnt raise u or anything but i can sincerely take a crack at both kindsa questions

ROSE: Ok.

ROSE: Do...

ROSE: You really like wizards?

ROXY: rose

ROSE: Yes?

ROXY: rose

ROXY: rooose

ROSE: ...

ROXY: i fucken

ROXY: LOVE

ROXY: wizzards

ROSE: I see.

ROSE: As odd as it sounds, that actually does go pretty far in letting me know something about both of you.

ROXY: oh?

ROSE: My relationship with her was complicated.

ROSE: But I've come to see that as mostly my fault. I was too young to understand her.

ROXY: i never even got the chance to misunderstand my mom

ROXY: or grownup you

ROXY: or... i mean i didnt get to misunderstand her IN PERSON

ROXY: more like as a legendary figure

ROXY: cause i grew up 400 years after she died

ROSE: Ah, right.

ROSE: I think I'm going to have to call the contest early. Yours is the more interesting biography, by quite a lot.

ROXY: not really!

ROXY: not to me at least... i was lonely

ROXY: i thought about her a lot to pass the time

ROXY: she was p amazing at least according to history

ROXY: she wrote hella books about wizards and rode a genocidal fat man down a waterfall of blood

ROSE: She wrote hella books about wizards?

ROXY: yeh!

ROXY: they were famous n good and everything

ROSE: It sounds like I fumbled into the wrong line of work.

ROSE: There's no money in this Sburb business.

ROSE: Well, there is. It just comes in incredibly stupid denominations, which are not particularly useful.

KANAYA: Do You Have Copies Of These Books

ROXY: ummmm yes!

ROXY: yes i do there are copies back on my planet

ROXY: assuming john didnt retcon them away like a book thiefin sneak!

KANAYA: I Would Really Love To Read Them Some Time If You Wouldnt Mind

ROXY: no not at all!

ROSE: By the way, this is Kanaya.

ROSE: Sorry for the combination of bad manners and general dumbfoundedness which precluded a more timely introduction.

KANAYA: Hello

ROXY: hey!

ROXY: thats a nice name and also ur pretty

KANAYA: Thank You

KANAYA: I Admire The Aesthetics Of Your Name And Appearance As Well And In No Small Part Due To Their Respective Similarity To Your Daughters

ROXY: wow man that was somehow both a convoluted thing to say yet smooth as hell

ROXY: m impressed

ROSE: Welcome to Maryam City, population, a whole lot of great remarks like that.

ROXY: but yes ill get u those books!

ROXY: theyre great they made me wanna write my own wizard books

ROSE: Did you?

ROXY: errr

ROXY: yeah sorta :\

ROSE: Could I read them?

ROXY: ummmm

ROSE: Hey, you got to read mine!

ROXY: yeah but u were like an old pro when u wrote yours!

ROXY: they are freaking MASTERPIECE WIZARDFICS!!!

ROXY: they won pulizters and shit

ROSE: Did they really??

ROXY: um idk probably?

ROSE: Oh.

ROXY: i dunno they are just vry vry good

ROXY: so the ancient prize scholars im sure were like, dude these wizards

ROXY: are vry vry fucking good

ROXY: give them all the awards, then shut down the awards, but not cuz of the looming apocalypse, just cuz u literally cannot do better than these wizards

ROSE: I can live with that.

ROSE: It's always been one of my professional goals to write tales of magical men so provocative, they would cause the permanent and unceremonious dissolution of at least one prestigious award.

ROXY: so yeah i dunno i guess u can see

ROXY: but its a pale ghost of a story compared to ur stuff and its also um kinda weird?

ROSE: I like weird!

ROXY: yeah

ROXY: just... your opinion means a lot to me & im nervous u might think it sucks!

ROSE: But I never even wrote the masterpieces you read.

ROSE: I think you may have a view of my abilities which I haven't earned yet.

ROSE: Really, I'm not that good.

ROSE: I have my own story drafts which you can read if you like.

ROSE: They're nothing special, frankly.

ROXY: o really??

ROXY: aw man ok then that sounds fun! :)

KANAYA: If During Your Manuscript Exchange You Need Someone To Read Over Your Shoulder

KANAYA: Say

KANAYA: To Proofread

KANAYA: Or

KANAYA: To Purge Each Sentence Of Punctuation And Capitalize The First Letter Of Every Word

KANAYA: Id Be Happy To Volunteer

KANAYA: Strictly Professionally Of Course And Not Because I Really Want To Read Your Wizard Things Too

KANAYA: (I Really Want To Read Your Wizard Things Too I Hope Thats Okay)

ROXY: hahaha yeah sure its ok!

ROXY: kanaya sorry me and rose are babbling away here to each other we dont mean to be excluding you

KANAYA: Its Fine I Am Thoroughly Enjoying My Role As A Spectator

KANAYA: I Know That Rose Has Been Looking Forward To This A Lot

KANAYA: And That She Received Similarly Vicarious And Politely Passive Enjoyment From The Interactions I Had With My Ancestor

KANAYA: So Now I Will Just Resume The Politely Passive Part Of It Ha Ha

ROXY: u dont gotta!

ROXY: jump in whenever you feelin it! :D

ROXY: i love meeting new trolls

ROXY: well at least when theyre not evil or somethin

ROXY: love them not evil trolls

ROXY: like the cranky one over there in rad ruby shades

KANAYA: Terezi

ROXY: yeah shes a boss

KANAYA: Thats A Pretty Fair Way To Describe The Attitude Of Anyone Higher Than Me On The Hemospectrum

KANAYA: But Yes You Are Right

ROXY: oh also

ROXY: lest we forget dear fefeta

KANAYA: Fefeta

KANAYA: Do You Mean

KANAYA: Feferi?

ROXY: no fefeta!!!

ROXY: she was a dear precious soul

KANAYA: Hmm

ROXY: she was my sprite

ROXY: guess she never happened in this version of stuff though?

ROXY: dang

ROXY: thats sad but maybe not quite as sad as her existing then exploding?

ROXY: im confuse

ROXY: wonder what even else is different...

ROSE: Well, you died too.

ROXY: i did?

ROSE: Yes, while pushing me out of the way of a fork.

ROSE: So, thank you for that, retroactively. And... to a different version of you.

ROXY: jeez

ROXY: yeah i... had a really similar thing happen in my timeline...

ROXY: also involving a fork

ROXY: and even tho youre ok now its still almost too sad to even talk about

ROSE: Yeah.

ROSE: We didn't get to exchange even a single word before you were gone.

ROSE: All I could think was, "How can this be happening again?"

ROSE: Luckily the sense of misery was short lived, though.

ROSE: It wasn't long before I was informed the incident was part of something bigger taking shape.

ROSE: And that John was on his way with a different version of you.

ROSE: I had no idea what "a different version" actually entailed, but I wasn't about to quibble.

ROSE: I was so relieved.

ROXY: same

ROXY: altho...

ROXY: instead of waiting for you to come back i had to jump thru all these hoops with john

ROXY: and went through some uh

ROXY: different stuff

ROXY: i uh

ROXY: i MAY have thrown an impromptu funeral for your alt-u dead body :o

ROSE: You did?

ROXY: yup

ROXY: sorry if that sounds weird

ROXY: and i knew i was comin to meet a new version of you

ROXY: but

ROXY: it helped me

ROXY: with like

ROXY: feelings about people i left behind

ROSE: A funeral...

ROSE: Wow, that,

ROXY: ?

ROSE: Sorry for this, if it comes off as odd, but,

ROSE: That is so "mom" of you.

ROXY: oh yea?

ROSE: M-hm.

ROXY: hehe

ROXY: i like your mom!

ROSE: Me too.

ROSE: I don't mean to be too analytical about getting to know you, really.

ROSE: I guess comparisons are little hard for me to avoid, since the adult version of you played such a significant role in my life.

ROSE: So I can't help seeing the similarities when they are there.

ROSE: But also you are so clearly your own person, shaped by your own experiences, and that is the person I would prefer to get to know, rather than a young avatar for the memory of a departed parent.

ROSE: Yet this is the context which somewhat inescapably colors my perception of what you reveal.

ROSE: So while some observations are in the vein of predictable, charmingly so, mind you...

ROSE: Others I regard as surprising.

ROXY: what about me is surprising?

ROSE: Well.

ROSE: You aren't,

ROSE: You don't quite seem like a person who...

ROSE: Er.

ROXY: .....?

ROSE: I don't want to ask anything that would sound rude to you, or spiteful to her.

ROSE: Because I don't feel that conflicted about this anymore.

ROSE: Particularly since I had my own troubles with it. So it would be pretty hypocritical.

ROXY: conflicted about what?

ROSE: Let me back up a little.

ROSE: It was a long ride on that meteor.

ROSE: One experiences things over a few years, given a lot of time to think. Changes and such.

ROSE: About half way through, I started thinking more...

ROSE: About mom. And about you.

ROSE: Knowing that I'd probably meet you, and. I don't know. Live up to the experience?

ROSE: It's silly, but I'm guessing you understand what I mean.

ROXY: :)

ROSE: Basically, I was just nervous.

ROSE: And it was all mixed up with feelings of conflict and remorse over my mother.

ROSE: Who, to my hazy preteen recollection, never wasted a day in my life on sobriety.

ROSE: She and her habit put all those days to quite effective use, actually.

ROSE: And I don't even quite remember the thought process that led to this, but,

ROSE: I sort of ran with it too?

ROSE: The habit, I mean. For a while at least.

ROSE: I was still distraught about losing her. And wanted to understand her.

ROSE: To connect with her, in some way. And I guess that was the only idea I had.

ROSE: And on some level, I think connecting with her was also a way of preparing myself to meet you...

ROSE: Even though that probably makes no sense.

ROSE: Since you aren't literally her, and don't share all her...

ROSE: I guess I shouldn't speak for you, though.

ROXY: so youre sayin

ROXY: youre surprised im unlike her in that way cause i dont seem like someone whod get drunk off her ass all the time?

ROSE: Um-

ROXY: hahahaha

ROXY: well i guess i should be flattered if u rly think so buttttt

ROXY: wrong

ROSE: So... you,

ROXY: my storys kind of like yours!

ROXY: i had a mom i never knew and wanted to feel close to her however i could

ROXY: i grew up MOSTLY unsupervised in her old old house

ROXY: and it had all this old stuff in it plus some old booze squirrelled away here and there

ROXY: aaand i just uhhh started up even tho i was WAY too young for shit like that WHOOPS....

ROXY: and like i said it was a bit lite on discipline round then, its not like a buncha silly pumpkin eaters were gonna stop me

ROSE: Pumpkin eaters?

ROXY: chess guys

ROXY: loads of them

ROSE: !

ROXY: but yeah i wanted to be like her and do what she did but mostly just made a hot catastrophe of myself

ROXY: i doubt that is what she wanted

ROXY: at the time it seemed like a cool thing a real intellectual an mysterious book celebrity would do while also leading a badass and secretly subversive life in opposition of tyranny

ROXY: but

ROXY: i think what is more likely is

ROXY: she knew the whole world would end and everyone would die no matter what she did

ROXY: which was probly hard to live with

ROXY: idk if i can blame the old lady for wantin to get a WEE bit sauced after a couple of rapping clowns won a presidential election

ROSE: Yeah, I...

ROSE: Wait, what?

ROSE: Clowns?

ROXY: long story

ROXY: bad story

ROXY: plz continue

ROSE: Ok. Yes, I'm sure my mother knew the end was coming too.

ROSE: Knowing that helped put a lot of her behavior in context for me. I was always too young to understand.

ROXY: poor moms :(

ROXY: poor poor adult dead sexy lady us :( :(

ROSE: Truth.

ROXY: but anyway

ROXY: back to... us!

ROXY: kid alive sexy lady us

ROSE: Yes.

ROSE: It sounds like your Rose had an incredible career, but all things considered, I prefer being kid alive sexy lady me.

ROXY: agree

ROXY: i know what you mean about being nervous

ROXY: about meeting you i mean

ROXY: maybe nervous isnt quite right but

ROXY: when i started thinking about meeting u is when i started thinkin...

ROXY: i should try being not QUIIITE such a mess

ROXY: so i started takin the idea of cleaning up my act more seriously

ROSE: Ultimately, I concluded the same thing.

ROSE: I decided it wouldn't be a very dignified way to make an entrance.

ROSE: Or for that matter, a very constructive way to help out in a struggle to preserve reality.

ROSE: Luckily, I was able to cut it out a while ago. I admit, it wasn't easy.

ROSE: But it helped a lot to have people around looking out for me.

ROSE: *Poke.*

KANAYA: ...

KANAYA: *Sits Poked*

ROXY: yeah i had friends help me too!

ROXY: i couldnta done it w/o them either

ROSE: I never had "IRL" friends before this trip.

ROSE: It's interesting to observe the various ways they apply themselves to your benefit.

ROSE: Some people are around to make you feel like you're worth sticking with, even when you fuck up.

ROSE: And some people are around to kick your ass to make sure you don't.

ROXY: haha

ROXY: i think i had to play the latter role to my friends a lot

ROXY: and also to myself i guess

ROXY: who kicked your ass

ROXY: was it the yelly guy over there?

ROSE: No, Karkat was mostly preoccupied with his own... shenanigans.

ROSE: The yelling is deceptive. He's a rather private person.

ROSE: Vriska, however.

ROSE: She really is quite an extravagant bitch.

ROXY: lmao

ROSE: But it turns out people like that tend to have some convenient assets.

ROSE: Such as, the sheer force of personality to keep a bunch of idiots from falling apart.

ROSE: Don't get me wrong. It's quite annoying.

ROSE: But... useful.

ROXY: yeaaah

ROXY: i probably should have been more of a bitch to all my peeps

ROXY: maybe we wouldnt have gone to jail and died

ROSE: Let it be a lesson to us all.

ROXY: seriously tho

ROXY: is so nice hearin ur stories

ROXY: especially the similarities of stuff we experienced

ROXY: wizards and writing and mom stuff and even bad things we went through

ROXY: and obviously were similar by dna and all

ROXY: but even so

ROXY: it still feels comforting

ROXY: that even if u flip the universe upside down and change it all around

ROXY: pull us apart by centuries, kill humans off, flood the world

ROXY: were still connected to each other

ROXY: in a mysterious way that goes beyond genes and circumstance

ROXY: and that i think is some tight frickin noise to consider

ROSE: I'm considering it right now, and yes.

ROSE: That noise... it is SO tight.

ROXY: :')

ROSE: :')

KANAYA: :')

DAVE: hey what are we all talking about over here

ROSE: Damn it, Dave.

"TWO YEARS ON DOPE COUNT," Toronto Star. October 30, 1943. Page 31. ---- Convicted on charges of selling narcotics, Joseph Bennett and Pte. James A. Gould were each sentenced to two years in the penitentiary by Judge J. Ambrose Shea in general sessions. To this was added a $200 fine or three months. They were convicted mainly on evidence by Mrs. Gwen Grigg and Miss Betty Bell, R.C.M.P. operators. [AL: Bennett was 31, married with a child, of Polish immigrant descent, a machine hand at a Toronto factory, and as the police file notes, 'a user of narcotic drugs.' He had previously been in the reformatory and in the penitentiary - if his experience is similar to other users at the time, he may have first encountered opiates in prison. He was convict #7495 at Kingston Penitentiary, and worked mostly in the tailor shop. He was reported three times for infractions but was generally a 'good conduct' prisoner. He was released August 1945. Gould was 42, single, a soldier in the Canadian Active Service Force, with three previous reformatory convictions to his name. He too was a 'user and dealer of narcotics. He was convict #7493 and worked mostly in the change room at the penitentiary. He was released the same day as Bennett. Both men were turned in due to women police informants who themselves were substance dependent at one time. Neither man would have received treatment in prison - the standard practice was the dangerous 'cold turkey' method much complained about by the incarcerated then and now.]

Day 68: Reunion

https://homestuck.com/story/7457

Just because Vriska is happy to take credit for everyone’s shit being in order doesn’t really mean all the credit realistically belongs to her.

Which isn’t to say she gets none of the credit; her willingness to time-travel (which Dave is presumably still hung up on) and her ability to put Jade to sleep definitely helped things not go straight to shit.

More after the break.

https://homestuck.com/story/7458

Vriska’s presence, while tactically necessary for victory, sucks practically all the air out of the room. Almost no one else can get a word in edgewise. While she’s around post-retcon, practically everyone else is reduced to a secondary character in any conversation with her. Luckily, she doesn’t stick around long - just exactly long enough to be useful.

https://homestuck.com/story/7459

The Scourge Sisters are complicated characters.

Terezi spends a lot of this conversation hedging. It seems like, however well-intentioned and “necessary” Terezi’s choice to save Vriska’s life might have been for the greater good, the story passes very little judgement one way or the other on her whether that was right.

On the one hand, it’s the thing that Terezi did choose, and it seems appropriate that if she were going to use her power to reverse an action, it should be to reverse a choice that she made.

On the other hand... Vriska shows us that reasoning may not necessarily be sufficient, or redemptive - and indeed, while Terezi’s decision does repair things for just about everyone else... it doesn’t actually make things too much better for her in the end.

She spends a lot of time hedging throughout this conversation, using qualifiers like, Might, and I Think, and I Say - she wants to avoid directly contradicting Vriska, and there’s something deeply disconcerting about it.

Choosing not to kill Vriska may have spared her the burden of that on her conscience, but it ultimately doesn’t seem to have spared her confidence.

https://homestuck.com/story/7460

I’ve always felt like there’s an eeriness to the way the characters act here, and I feel like part of why they might feel so fake is they feel like they’ve almost kind of... reset to pre-Act 6 characterizations? The broad-strokes characterization we got from the Vriskagram leaves little for us to work with in terms of imagining their new inner lives, and because so much of Homestuck operates literally on the narrative layer, any development that we didn’t see didn’t happen; it’s completely inconsequential.

And with the characters all interacting in this no-stakes environment, they feel less like Homestuck characters, and uncomfortably more like Sitcom Characters - static, a set of self-referential character traits.

They’re still the same people - that’s the nature of the Ultimate Self - but they don’t feel like it. Or at the very least, they don’t feel like it while they’re on the Lilypad here.

Let’s see where we go.

https://homestuck.com/story/7480

John is weirdly amicable with Vriska considering the terms that they parted on the last time that they spoke - especially considering he overtly resisted the idea of giving Vriska the Ring of Life to bring her back from the dead.

Perhaps the rush at seeing all of his friends happy and alive is enough to wash that over.

https://homestuck.com/story/7487

A few things from this conversation;

The first thing is that in spite of immediately, loudly, and insistently proclaiming that he is now real as a motherfucker can be, Dave immediately starts qualifying, and explaining himself in verbal essay form the moment his own emotions are actually what’s being examined.

He directly identifies the idea of living up to an ideal of masculinity with the idea of heroism, so that’s points for my Caliborn essay, hah!

https://homestuck.com/story/7488

As predicted by Homosuck, Dave and Karkat’s relationship isn’t just turbulent, it’s anime turbulent! Hot and cold, tsundere even.

https://homestuck.com/story/7491

The parallel between Dave’s bicurious thoughts (and almost certain bisexuality) and John entertaining Black Emotions for Terezi is a weird way to do that, but I guess nobody ever accused Homestuck of being a normal work of fiction.

https://homestuck.com/story/7493

It’s nice for Rose to finally reach a place of some comfort in her storyline; a place where she can be rigorously self-critical without succumbing to pessimism and despair.

It’s nice. That’s all.

https://homestuck.com/story/7497

Jake also engaging in some rigorous self-critique, and what with his status as the Page of Hope, I don’t believe that in the long term, he will succumb to pessimism and despair either.

No sir - I think that whatever other somewhat bastardy things Jake may be, he is not, at the end of the day, a loser.

https://homestuck.com/story/7499

The great irony here, is we know of course that Vriska is wrong. Tavros is wrong too to just flatter Jake. He needs support; he needs help. He doesn’t need to give up either by falling prey to Vriska’s pessimism, or to Tavros’s false confidence.

https://homestuck.com/story/7500

I think it’s really interesting that what Vriska makes this all about is the fact that she blinded Terezi, and not that she crippled Tavros. There’s always been a degree to which, outside of her adversarial courtship with Tavros, she just doesn’t really treat him like a person - she treats him like an object of gratification, or a project, or collateral in her relationship with someone else, but never legitimately as a peer. The fact that she murdered Aradia and crippled Tavros doesn’t even factor into her self-estimation (especially now that she has resurrected Tavros as a sprite.)

https://homestuck.com/story/7501

Remarkably, Vriska actually has some good fucking advice for someone else for once. I don’t think that anyone should be comfortable with their flaws - what is legitimately a flaw is what estranges us from other people, causes us to hurt them, and ourselves. CERTAINLY no one should be as comfortable with them as Vriska is with herself.

But humans are all intrinsically flawed, it’s not something we can grow past, at least not in this life. Perfection is not something that can be attained to. But living with other human beings, being able to survive with them means being able to be comfortable now with our flaws, but with their flaws. I think that’s probably the meaning of forgiveness. Knowing that other people will hurt us, and deciding we can be down with that.

https://homestuck.com/story/7502

Roxy and Dave are adorable, enough said.

I like Dave’s description of his floppy imaginary men - comparing them to puppets, and the way he describes them railing against the confines of their virtual prison feels like a really obvious metaphor for exactly what the characters of Homestuck are busy doing.

https://homestuck.com/story/7504

I think someone - maybe even Andrew - has stated that the entire point of Rose’s quest is to alienate her from it. It’s like Baby’s First Character Arc - personal growth all wrapped up in bright pastels. Exactly the sort of thing that would piss off a challenge-seeking young lady like Rose.

The point of Rose’s rejection of her quest is that there are not arbitrary loops someone has to jump through in order to earn personhood. Or as Dave puts it in a moment, “we don’t have arcs.”

https://homestuck.com/story/7509

There’s an eerie extent to which, as friendly as she is with Vriska, Kanaya seems almost to talk about her as a dead woman walking. Even talk to her as a dead woman walking.

She has a certain emotional distance to her - fond of her, but not attached, even resigned to Vriska being the way she is. It’s like small-talk between people who used to know each other. I get the impression less that Kanaya is being friendly with Vriska, and more that... she’s being nice to each Vriska, rather than genuinely friendly.

Maybe it’s because she is moving forward into the future with people that she loves, while Vriska...

Vriska is living in the past; preoccupied with her own past misdeeds (to some extent or another), preoccupied with Lord English’s narrative, and her need to be the one who destroys him

https://homestuck.com/story/7513

It only occurred to me at this very moment to talk about John and Jake’s shared love of terrible movies; and the way in which they both model themselves off of their movie heroes.

https://homestuck.com/story/7514

John’s warm positivity toward Jake is... honestly, one of the best things in the comic. I’m sad we don’t get to see more of Jake’s character arc, and I’ve always thought it was kind of a crime that Homestuck just leaves him here, more or less.

Reunion done, we’ll pause here for the night, and continue tomorrow. Fairly short episode tonight, but in terms of the amount of text, that was a lot of reading, so I forgive myself.

See you tomorrow for some strategizing, and some more problems and feelings.

For now, Cam signing off, Alive and thanks to you guys, not Alone.

Reviewing a review of Burns, words, only words

BURNS, J. — The Music of the Psalms, Proverbs and Job in the Hebrew Bible. (Jüdische Musik, 9). Verlag Otto Harrassowitz, Wiesbaden, 2011. (30 cm, XIII, 495). ISBN 978-3-447-06191-9. ISSN 1613-7493. / 68,- in BIBLIOTHECA ORIENTALIS LXX N° 1-2, januari-april 2013 p 192 I don't have the subject text or 68 Euros to spare. But I was curious if the statistics implied in Raymond de Hoop's review hold up in my data. De Hoop writes:

In this chapter he emphasizes the strong relationship between a disjunctive accent and its regular preceding disjunctive, like for instance tifcha-atnach or pashta-zaqef, a relationship, which is also mentioned in the grammar of Joüon-Muraoka (§15i).3 ) More revolutionary is that he refers to the fact that in such regular combination the preceding (“intermediary”) disjunctive might in addition have its own regular preceding disjunctive (“prefix” disjunctive), resulting in combinations like for instance tvir-tifcha-atnach or geresh-pashta-zaqef.

Can you believe anyone here is writing about music? The first question this raises for me is, How often does tifcha-atnach or pashta-zaqef occur in this sequence? Let's remind ourselves what these signs are. Tifcha is g#, atnach is A. And yes they frequently occur in this sequence, 8,733 times. The pair is very frequent in the approach to the subdominant (as a musician would expect). They are both sub-lineal signs. Pashta is the prose version of qadma. They are both supra-lineal signs. They have differing placement. ב֙ ב֨. Haïk-Vantoura interprets each as a single note above the reciting note. One could think of it as an inverted mordent. Zaqef, roughly speaking is its opposite, though there are two the lesser and the greater and her interpretation of them is not quite the same. So how often do these occur in sequence? I count 320 matches for pashta zaqef-gadol and 6532 for qadma zaqef-gadol. So they are each relatively frequent. Now what about the intermediary disjunctive, tvir-tifcha-atnach? d g A occurs 589 times. geresh-pashta-zaqef? no matches, geresh-qadma-zaqef 4 verses only. E.g. Numbers 14:19. What is frequent when there are 23197 verses? Apart from the last one which is obviously rare, the others run from < 2.5%, hardly significant, to about 30 up to 40% of the verses, relatively frequent but not overwhelmingly so. But who would explain music with such statistics? Even the musician Burns writes: “we must assume that the Biblical text contains all essential information for its performance – and consequently any elements that it does not contain – like the exact performance of melodies, which, today, vary from one locality to another – are unessential". This is a very disappointing assumption. We do not need to assume any such thing. We do need to use all the information at hand to figure out what we have. We have melody by a set of inferences on the number and placement of signs below the text. This is the best use of Occam's razor in the analysis of the accents that we have seen in 1000 years. We do not have an indication of mode. SHV herself said it takes musical judgment. We all must learn to judge with what we have and weigh the consequences. The possibilities for musical development are extensive. That is our gift. As for de Hoop's conclusion,

I regret to say that the book is too obvious an “Unvollendete”. Only for those readers who are really acquainted with the Masoretic accentuation the book might offer some interesting insights for study.

There is no 'finished' book on the accents in the commonly accepted literature that I have come across. Haïk-Vantoura's book demonstrates a beautiful portrayal of the musical possibilities. I have put out on the web 929 files that allow one to examine the music as music and to develop further music. I have written a shorter book that attempts to tell the Scriptural story in music and clearly explains Haïk-Vantoura's inferences. I have seen no adequate view of the history of the signs. Older manuscripts than Aleppo are needed. Mitchell's book is the clearest I have read. I am totally biased against studying the existing terminology of disjunctive and conjunctive. Those who 'are really acquainted' with these are lost. The terms are useless when describing music. In the confused literature on the accents of the last 1000 years, they are explained in contradictory ways. The musical phrase never conflicts with parallelism or word recurrence. It is the musical phrase that resolves the problems of understanding prosody in the Hebrew Scriptures. There are plenty of performed examples available from the last link on the music page.
