i love crossover ships so bad you don't even get it. mephone4 x two (they were SO CUTE in the tour announcement AUUUSGHH i love their dynamic sm i need MORE). balloon (ii) x nickel (bfdi). ruby x lightbulb. hell, they don't even both have to be from object shows. taco (ii) x vriska (homestuck) is peak toxic yuri. i just came up with goo x neptune (solarballs) while writing this ask and i love it already. there is infinite untapped potential in the realm of crosships.

Theres no "see results" you have to vote. Theres no logic behind my parings besides "who do I think would cause the most events to happen". If you cant decide you can also consider "who would be on the news" and "who would tiktok hate".

I can't believe I drew these with my own 2 hands.

Hm. That name seems familiar for some reason!

Ah, it's probably nothing.

I can't wait to learn more about this character, who I'm sure is going to very straight-forward and not at all cause for discourse :)

Which fucking troll am I

Heads up but homestuck 2 is very dubiously canon. Rest assured in Homestuck’s official end, Kanaya is happy lol.

I have seen a lot of debate about how canon stuff like homestuck 2 and the epilogues(?) are. mostly debate on tiktok. thank god that she gets at least one mostly happy ending lmao

okay so i don't want to particularly call out these kinds of headcanons as bad. but they highlight a specific fandom trend ive seen for ages so here goes:

the extended zodiac is not alternian canon, nor zodiac.

i know that's brash for a lighthearted official personality quiz. but i've seen this zodiac presented frequently as the End All of trollsigns -- even claims that all trolls MUST derive from these 288. this is a complete misrepresentation of original canon.

first, obviously, the notion that your personality is determined by your caste is literally just what troll racism is, so the canocity of this test claims racism as truth. second of all, the traits are not even accurate to the trolls we DO see in canon- they're pulled from western zodiac.

the zodiac's also determined by lunar sway; nonsense because alternian trolls don't have lunar sway. it's a "moon a sburb player dreams on", and none of these trolls are sburb players. (i also feel like this should go for aspects, though that is a more controversial opinion)

so yeah, the extended zodiac is inaccurate and purely just fandom sburb personality-type nonsense. but does that really make it noncanon? plenty of stuff on alternia is nonsense.

except... homestuck trolls don't believe that signs are a zodiac that determine their personality.

not only is the idea of signs being related to some sort of personality zodiac never once mentioned by a troll, but the signs are frequently tied to other things that have nothing to do with personality. kanaya equivalents trollsigns to signatures, and later vriska explains the concept to john as being similar to a family crest, bemoaning that trolls have to do much more searching for clues or their ancestry than humans do. cronus also refers to his sign as his signature.

virska does use the phrasing that trolls who have the same sign "have a lot in common", but she also does this explicitly in the context of explaining to john how troll ancestry works, as hussie further notes in the commentary of that page that signs are included in physical/genetic characteristics trolls look to for ancestry clues. even hiveswap, which wants you to believe in the zodiac, concludes that signs are specific to troll surnames and that there are signs outside of it. multiple trolls in homestuck have signs that do not appear in the extended zodiac.

the extended zodiac quiz ≠ the alternian sign alphabet.

alternians wouldn't know what aspects or lunar sways are, nor have personalities equivilant to their signs (feferi and meenah are right there). deciding that trollsigns = personality test is a purely human concept that comes from our western zodiac.

but you know what alternians DO have?

THEY HAD THEIR OWN FUCKING CONSTELLATIONS AND ZODIAC. FROM THEIR OWN CREATORS. THIS WHOLE TIME.

where are the headcanons about troll's placements on THAT zodiac?
