Re: Classpect discussion

i did not say that at all lol i said it is in the NATURE of homestuck's villains to be MANIPULATORS. i did not say ALL of them were manipulators. in fact i have literally been arguing the opposite of this: jack and lord english are the direct OPPOSITE of manipulators, in that they are active destroy...

Re: Classpect discussion

see you quite often say things like "this could be because of that" but you haven't provided any reason to actually believe that, in which case the most likely answer remains the most simple one, which is "it's just something he can do with the various powers we already know he has"

Re: Classpect discussion

conditional mortality is pretty straightforward. lord english has an aura of cherub immortality. he can give that to someone and then take it away. not all powers are going to be classpect powers. he also has some space powers by virtue of being part first guardian, but is not composed of any heroes...

Re: Classpect discussion

Doc Scratch can't be anything because his personality is an amalgam of like four or five different others. What seems to be Prince is actually the Lil' Hal in him shining through, which domineers due to the fact that it's also Heart. this is definitely not true. an amalgamation of personalities is ...

Re: Classpect discussion

being proud isnt LEAGUES near being selfish, nor does being proud go hand in hand with being active. i wouldnt even say scratch is proud. i think being proud requires a certain personal distortion of the facts, which scratch does not have, because he's omniscient. he's more confident than proud.

Re: Classpect discussion

serving someone is different to acting only out of their interest. damara is very clear at all times about having her own interests that she makes attempts to pursue. scratch is, and again, i must stress that this is by DESIGN, interested in SOLELY furthering english's interests, and has none of his...

Re: Classpect discussion

I don't think Scratch CAN be an active sort by any definition. by design he exists as the passive manipulator to Lord English's active destroyer, and if we go by the active/passive selfish/selfless angle, Scratch, again by design, acts only to assist English, who he considers a different person and ...

Re: THE GAMZEECOURSE THREAD

while I think describing it as cg/l is probably a little extreme, I did also get the impression that the specific nature of gamzee's relationship with jane was indicative of some kind of infant complex or want of a mother figure, stemming from his lack of a proper lusus growing up. i don't know what...

Re: THE DIRKCOURSE THREAD

the point is less whether he intended to insult roxy's identity specifically and more that the comments he made WERE insulting, and that if he was concerned more about respecting roxy's identity he would have thought more before making the comments.

Re: How a Game Of Sburb Would Look in a Post-Cannon World?

I think part of the magic of a character-author is that you can never be sure whether they're speaking events into existence or simply narrating what would have happened anyway. If John had died a Just death and Dirk had lied and said he simply wasted away into nothing, would it have made a differen...

Re: lets talk about clowns/subjugs

I don't think Scratch referring to it as a "gift" and something he "gave" to the trolls implies anything. It's kind of a sentence devoid of implications

Re: lets talk about clowns/subjugs

In all fairness, Doc Scratch did use one to keep Alternia under control. It's a bit weird. he gave one to the sea dwellers, specifically to control the subjugglators. Glb'golyb is never called a real horrorterror that I remember. It's likely that she's the ectobiologal product of a horror terror an...

i dont think the other trolls making fun of gamzee for his pie eating necessarily says that's not part of his religion, given that they also make fun of him for every other part of his religion. worth noting that unhealthy narcotic habits are part of the juggalo culture both in the friendsims and al...

Re: Unpopular Opinions Thread

yeah idk why a main character of the comic should be expected to just sit around and not talk about his feelings for the whole rest of the story just because he completed ONE character arc
