Terrible puns are always appreciated in my book.

Maybe that's why I don't have as much of a hatred of Feferi as everyone else.

No don't make it quick 500 page intermission about the A1 session please

Is it bad that I actually would like that?

I'm not sure you can call yourself a Homestuck fan if you wouldn't want that.

only 500 pages?

There is no shame in not knowing; the shame lies in not finding out

More than that and we'd be cutting into the upcoming 12000 page 48 Squiddles intermission we're all eagerly anticipating.

We're on a schedule here you know. It's only about 50 years until Hussie dies, gotta finish the story before then!

Dave, Rose, Meenah still great

Aranea still awful

You know, the usual.

EDIT: Though I will say this about Aranea: Scenes with her have improved, thanks to the fact that characters like Mind-Dirk and Meenah can play off of her terribleness. Unlike, for instance, in her first conversation with Terezi where we just listened to her drone on and on and Terezi just encouraged her.

pffft

Hussie's just trying to get Homestuck out of the way so he can get started on his magnum opus. He's gone on record as saying Homestuck is just a warmup for the story he WANTS to tell.

I thought he was on record saying Homestuck is a warmup for whatever the next story he tells is, whatever that may be, that he probably doesn't even know yet. I think it was more a response to the idea that Homestuck is his magnum opus, when he'd rather think that whatever he writes next will be better than whatever came before it.

I don't think it's like he's got some amazing idea all planned out that Homestuck is just a precursor to.

Also, I'm not quite sure I understand the subtext in the last panel. At first I thought Aranea was about to say something that Meenah didn't want her to say, then I thought Meenah was like, threatening Aranea somehow, then I thought that Meenah was just stopping Aranea from being longwinded and expediting the explanation. It's probably the last one I guess.

You might say...there is something fishy about that panel.

Meenah comes across as kind of threatening there but I guess that's just how she is. As if we didn't already know.

But yeah she's just going to tell a condensed version of the story. Or I guess you could call it a...

Condesced version

Wow... That was so short and simple for an explanation.

I would have preferred to hear it from Aranea though (she is 8etter than Meenah in my opinion) :::;)

We had already basically figured most of that out, other than the explosion part. No need for a protracted explanation.

Also, wasn't expecting Hussie to actually design the 12 pre-scratch trolls, even if it's just a silhouette. Grand Highblood looks boss.

Though if she killed them all that easily and only a few minutes have passed by for her, it's kind of weird that Meenah knew what a God Tier looks like.

Edit: Wait, Aranea was in a God Tier outfit earlier. Though now I question how that's a just or heroic death.

We will later find out that aranea is actually worse than the Condesce, but far better at hiding it.

Clearly it is a just death because it lead to boner magic. You gotta look at the big picture with this got tiger stuff see...

It could be possible that the session scratched before she "respawned?"

The other possibility is that she tried to stop Meenah, but IIRC they were conspiring together to do it? I think she mentioned that but hell if I'm wading through all of Aranea's exposition again.

--

http://backloggery.com/herodeltiempo/sig.gif

Could be a plot hole, but there are a myriad possible explanations really. For example, maybe she wasn't God Tier yet, but became one after this event? Could be that the frog lily pad thing functions as a Quest Bed. And with a dead dreamself, she might get God Tiered in the dreambubbles? Alternately, she and Meenah were already God Tiers, survived the explosion, and killed eachother to get a heroic/just death respectively.

I think we can trust Hussie to make up a plausible explanation, hopefully less of an asspull than my proposals.

Also I just realized

Darkleer has a ponytail

For time being, I'm going to assume Arenea wasn't revived because her body was erased by the scratch before she could revive. It showed that John took a while to revive when he died.

--
I finally believe it. This is not butter. And I know deep down in my heart that I must become butter atheist.

Or because dying so that the next generation can do better is probably one of the more heroic deaths out there.

The blowing up part was for completely selfish reasons though because they didn't want to get erased completely.

My first thought was Princess Leia but then I realized he's probably wearing headphones.

hopefully since he actually made silhouettes we get to at least see glimpses of them

so i can pray he's not wearing headphones and that it's his hair

Alright. I know that quite a few people have been jumping the gun, saying that Aranea suddenly becomes okay when she does something moderately interesting, and they were wrong before.

But this is certainly Aranea's best scene.

still not enough to pull her out of "worst troll" tier, though

It's not even that she's bad anymore, she's just incredi8ly 8land
