More fap/ship fuel for autistic fans.

Make fun of the fandom

jokes
also give a more coherent idea about the kind of players and powers you can end up with in sburb/grub

I think Aradia2 had some point of being and Feferi2 and Vriska2 were relevant but I haven't even read anything past John fixing Terezi's love life via retcons so I dunno.

To sell more t shirts

To make fun of tumblr
To sell tshirts
More fetish fap fuel

That's it.

To give you a boner.
And you got one.

what was the point of anything?

Fuck, I blew so many loads to Damara.

>Karkat
>not a Paladin

...

I can't believe it.... Aranea crushed Karkat's head with her demonic thighs....

...

...

AND YOU COULD HAVE IT ALL

MY EMPIRE OF DIRT

Who is your favorite cool and new webcomic character? Mine is daddy.

...

Who was the best alpha troll and why is it Porrim?

She is definitely the most beautiful.
I like Aranea and Latula as well.
For the males, the only ones I liked were Kankri and Mituna.

...

> ultimate purpose
You mean the last useful purpose?
fodder to populate the ghost army, so the reader doesn't get confused with copies of the current living characters. The ghost army itself was just a smokescreen for Vriska "i'm the most important! me!" Serket

They're still useful as fanfiction fuel, but thats after the story is done so I don't know if that counts as the last or ultimate purpose.

If evil cherubs are destructive, why was Caliborn an artist?

Jokes and pornography.
Damara is the only reason I don't think their introduction was complete shit.

His purpose was to destroy the concept of art, along with the plot, with his shenanigans.

...

Because he was a GENIUS and also VERY HANDSOME.

Worldbuilding through exposition.

Cherubs were never meant to interact with other sentient life in their childhood. They also aren't supposed to predominate early. Caliborn is atypical and an idiot.

...

Why did alt!Calliope have red cheeks?

Wait, nevermind, she doesn't.

because she was blushing at jade

Why would she blush at Jade? Don't Cherubs only feel kismessitude?

she hates that jade can live a life instead of living only for a certain purpose

>Karkat only exists to be a shitty epilogue mention and being Dave the hero's girlfriend

JUST

This sucks so bad. Ultimately almost every character is a throwaway visual gag and there are too many.

If some competent editor/producer/director were to do a complete overhaul of HS then Karkat would be the perfect POV to follow. He has drive and ambition but is held back by self-loathing. He tries to be aloof from both trolls and human but wants to manage their lives in a way he thinks is best for everyone. Way more compelling and thematically appropriate to the overall idea of the story (building a universe) than John the nobody or Dave the author-insert.

My only hope is that in 10-20 years some intrepid artist will take on the task of rewriting HS to be good, instead of a house of cards.

...

>almost every character is a throwaway visual gag
Okay I hear a lot of whining around here but this is ridiculous. Almost EVERY character? No.

Ultimatly they are basically a haircut and get one quirky trait and then get killed or sidelined until he could figure out some "plot thing" to make up to give the illusion they are important.

Then to dilute the character roster further he goes and doubles everything.

Honestly if you wanted to rewrite HS I feel you could remove about 3/4th of all the characters and still keep every major theme.

The overall idea of the story wasn't about building a universe, it was about freedom, autonomy. That's why the MC is Heir of Breath and why it's called Homestuck and why they escape the story itself. It was always about being trapped and without free will, and John's quest to become his own identity.

How did Caliborn get flashing eyes?

>The overall idea of the story wasn't about building a universe, it was about freedom, autonomy.
:^)

Homestuck is like that ex-girlfriend that rocked your world

Good Homestuck fangame when?

...

If I had about three more years of game dev experience I'd make one.
Unfortunately three years from now I don't think there'll be a community left to play it.
In all likelihood we're going to be stuck with Overseer and a bunch of abandoned / WIP projects until the end.

>It was always about being trapped and without free will, and John's quest to become his own identity.
If that's the case, then John failed at both. He didn't gain freedom because the new universe is just as bound by time loops as any other, and he lost more personality traits than he gained.

youdubber.com/index.php?video=0AizILfl4z4&video_start=0&audio=fJ9rUzIMcZQ&audio_start=0 This is amazing

Why is he smiling?

Holy shit, that works so well
Even the lyrics make sense at certain parts

yeah but he got sick lalonde pussy to freely fuck as he pleases

and at the end of the day that's all that really matters

You care more about shipping bullsgit than plot or characterization. Bravo, you are just as bad as tumblr.

This is actually real nice. Do you know who drew this?

No updates

No hope

Nothing left

No idea sorry

is the fanmade act 8 any good so far, I followed them but haven't started reading it yet

It's decent
they're coming out with an album for it and i have a song on said album

...

...

Homestuck is one of those depressing reminders that all I do is linger on the past. Seeing the characters together also reminds me of how far I moved from my friends.

You guys got any cool wallpapers? Preferably nothing too cluttered.

...

All of them are nsfw.

...

link to song?

who drew this

Again no fucking idea sorry

...

)(ow- I mean how many bulges do you think she has?
