Re: Broken Troll Worldbuilding discussion
The biggest thing I DON’T like about this whole setup is the attempts to make Alternia a setting for an entire game series when its foundations are shaky WITHOUT the immoral influences of Doc Scratch. If Joey and the Hiveswap Crew are all going to DO SOMETHING about Alternia’s situation, they will ...

Re: Classpect discussion
andrew saying gendered classes dont matter for OCs isnt exactly the same as him saying they Aren't Real In Homestuck? like, if someone asked him if they could make an oc with sparkling pink blood he's going to say yes, but that doesn't mean it's suddenly a blood colour trolls have. that being said ...

Re: Classpect discussion
Another thing - I know the Sylph is kind of a female-associated class (not specifically, but implied). I'm a man, but the idea of helping to dismantle a gendered construct by being part of a typically female class actually makes me feel more at home with the class. It seems gendered classes used to...

Re: Broken Troll Worldbuilding discussion
Hussie didn't think very far ahead on the troll worldbuilding when they were even introduced, as the book commentary suggests. A lot of what we understand about them, even big things like the hemospectrum, only were detailed in further updates. So it makes sense that there would be inconsistencies, ...

Re: If you had a Sburb-generated planet, what would it be?
Land of Metropoles and Daze. It's a land covered with large metropolitan cities in every inch, with only minimal amounts of space given for small parks and ponds. It has a small "visual filter" that makes it look like a VHS recording, even to the human eye. The cities are not maintained - spawn rate...

Re: [Discord RP server] Life after exile; GLB-206!
Pretty cool! Are spectators allowed? I'm not much of a troll guy, but this seems really well done, and I'm interested in what high quality hijinks people get up to.

Re: QUADRANT SCIENCES THREAD
it's less that I'm inclined to believe everything in fiction is socially constructed and more that trolls in-comic have had their whole society engineered to be a certain way from the beginning. this probably includes the way their breeding works, for maximum efficiency, and I wouldn't be surprised...

Re: QUADRANT SCIENCES THREAD
I don't disagree with anything that's been said so far, but do keep in mind biological social structures do exist. Birds that mate for life and pair bond and such. It's not out of the realm of possibility for trolls to have these quadrants specifically as instinctual impulses they've codified. Not ...

Re: QUADRANT SCIENCES THREAD
I liked it better when Trolls were somewhat incompatible with Human values. My headcanon is Rose was into Kanaya for the xeno, and her being a human in grey paint would've been a turn-off in that interpretation. This shit was doomed to happen the moment Andrew decided it'd be a fun idea to make int...

Re: QUADRANT SCIENCES THREAD
I wonder why there's no pale/black vacilitation in Homestuck. Pale inherently necessitates having large amounts of respect for the other party, as well as patience due to the pacification factor. It's a pretty stable quadrant, with only three known examples completely falling apart, two of which (F...

Re: QUADRANT SCIENCES THREAD
The concept of monogamy for things like moirallegiance is baffling to me as a human. Imagine demanding a specific person to ease you out of your panic attack. Imagine being so emotionally constipated that you can only disclose your vulnerabilities to zero to one people. Imagine unintentionally enco...

Re: QUADRANT SCIENCES THREAD
for that matter I don't think homestuck has really shown that blackrom between TROLLS works that well, either. which is what leads me to believe that what is considered kismesitude on Alternia is about 30% biological and about 70% bullshit made up to convince trolls that beating each other up and h...

Re: QUADRANT SCIENCES THREAD
]I don't think the fact that humans can have similar relationships to the quadrants necessarily means they have the same feelings . moirallegience is shakier but in terms of kismesitude the fact that the pitch and flushed quadrants both seemingly have different forms of genetic material to me would...

Re: Classpect discussion
Something that can be a bit dangerous with classpect assignment, in my opinion, is just how much a class's baggage assumes a destiny and/or trajectory for a person. This can be useful on face value when beginning to write your own characters, but when it comes to actual people and characters which ...

Re: QUADRANT SCIENCES THREAD
Yes, humans can feel the feelings associated with the other quadrants. Relationships that fit the <> criterium, even right down to the pacification factor, exist plenty in real life. However, there are people out there who seek out or describe their relationships in the black quadrants, I feel that'...
