on pesterquest: I don't play a lot of visual novels (rly just this and Friendsim)- so idk how unusual this is, but for a game that p much lacks a lose condition, they did an amazing job making Ultimate Dirk feel like a final boss also when Boldir popped up, I involuntarily blurted out, "It's you! haha!" Because it's Homestuck there's a lot I lost track of- where/when does PQ's Aradia come from? When she said she was kinda hiding out in this space of limited canon relevancy, I did a little gasp and had to get up and pace around thinking about it, but I can't remember what she's trying to accomplish, and "when", or why on upd8: Vriska as an agent of chaos just cartwheeling into the candyverse and lending it some surprise relevancy is so Vriska that they had to have two Vriskas to contain it

apropos of nothing if you arent reading Kill Six Billion Demons you should be, because Ultimate Dirk is basically the demiurge Incubus paranoid randroid fucked around with this message at 06:48 on Apr 3, 2020 |

primary difference between Dirk and Incubus is that Dirk goes around Kamina-ing into the scene whereas Incubus is so JoJo he slides into frame vertically, up a wall, already posing

I think the basic idea is that Pesterquest is even *less* relevant than Candy, and that the Pesterquest fragment of reality now contains the Dave from Candy before he turned into Davebot, as well as a different Aradia from the one who went off into space with Davebot. So, if this theory is correct, Pesterquest wound up partially rewriting Candy.

I thought this Aradia was from just before the time her and Sollux hopped into the black hole/candy timeline, since MSPAR told her they'll be fine when leaving canon.

Weird question, anyone who's played Dirk's route, can you confirm/deny whether the Dirk in that route is a Villainous Dirk or just a Regular Dirk? Asking for a friend who strongly identifies with Dirk and hates the direction of HS2. I havent played the PQ or even finished Friendsim yet so I can't answer that for him myself.

There's our teenage Dirk, the one we knew, and there's Epilogues Dirk. Our Dirk is a pretty good teenager with some Issues. And there's a reunion with adult Dave (from Candy) that makes them both emotional. I didn't get the True Ending achievement, even though I saw the Director pushing Hussie into a closet and arguing with Dirk about who's really telling the story. Is there another path I missed?

But if the friendsim trolls are from hiveswap and the timeline is locked, what does that mean for hiveswap? Is it on lockdown as well now?

BobDoleTrasher posted:But if the friendsim trolls are from hiveswap and the timeline is locked, what does that mean for hiveswap? Is it on lockdown as well now? The crew has stated that the characterization of the Friendsim trolls in Friendsim isn't going to mirror their characterization in Hiveswap proper 1:1, or at all in some cases. Therefore, the versions of the Hiveswap trolls in Friendsim are locked away from actual Hiveswap, much like the PQ kids are locked away from Homestuck proper.

I wonder how the aborted story of Hiveswap plays into Homestuck 2's approach to canon and timelines existing. Like, does Joey's timeline not exist any more since there's no more story? If act 2 ever actually does come out, does it spring back to life like dry moss after the rain? Is the entire universe a schrodinger's cat in broader paradox space, in a simultaneous state of existing and not existing until the waveform collapses and it is either released or officially cancelled?

Taking bets now: Is Yiffy Jades nickname for Dave, or is that what they named their kid? Which is worse?

They don't have a kid because (ugh) dog cock. I'm betting on some stuffed animal or manthro chap Jade gave Vrissy.

My take right now (subject to change when proven wrong) is that Candy is where most of the non-villainous cast bottoms out, and in HS2 they're starting to be on the upswing in various ways.

Oh right, I think I blocked that out because I hated that whole plot point so loving much. It was such a contrived way to keep Jade unhappy. Dave and Jade can't conceive a child even though Jade really wants to start a family? Okay then why don't they just use ectobiology? What's that? They're morally opposed to it for some poorly defined reason? Well whatever, why don't they adopt? Oh, they're never going to even consider adoption even though two of their closest friends have already adopted a child? Just going to keep Jade pining for a baby and then the man she married becomes a robot and abandons her.

Yiffy is not a child. I lay strong odds against Yiffy being a living thing at all. There is no way Jade and Dave had a kid through any contrived means that was never mentioned before now, and the fact that Jane rates whatever it is as equally important to a child is part of the gag, as is the juxtaposition of Jade's stress over it against Rose and Kanaya's stress over their living daughter. It is a smuppet alchemized with stuffed Halley.
