(Warning, this topic's discussion will be loaded with spoilers. If you're just starting out with Homestuck, don't go past the first post!)

One hiatus...followed by another hiatus, argh. At least this one will be shortish!


Our Heroes:

John Egbert, Pesterchum nickname ectoBiologist. The main character of the story, and lover of terrible movies.

external image

Rose Lalonde, Pesterchum nickname tentacleTherapist. A clever, sarcastic girl with a fascination for the eldritch and occult.

Dave Strider, Pesterchum nickname turntechGodhead. A cool dude among cool dudes and master of beats and rhymes.

external image

Jade Harley, Pesterchum nickname gardenGnostic. A cheerful, optimistic gal with strange hunches and insights, as well as a narcolepsy problem.

Together, these four children embark on a grand adventure. While it has humble beginnings, it soon grows out of control into an epic struggle against mighty, fearsome foes, with several quirky allies joining in along the way. To discover how their story unfolds, follow the link below...


Their Story:

I'm confused and this looks pretty boring. Why should I read any further?

I splurged and ordered Time and Mind hoodies today. Would've gotten Space, but they were sold out in XL (and not "reprinting" sold out, but like the store would not allow me to make an order at all). I want these damn things now because winter came early this year, and I don't want to risk missing the chance to get Time, so I just went with the third-coolest one. I like to think I'm just being ahead of the curve for when Terezi suddenly godtiers out of nowhere.

I do like how the descriptions for the Mind and Heart hoodies are the "??? of ???" as if we don't know who they would belong to. Then again, I don't know if that's more of an indication that everyone will or won't go God Tier.

Unless maybe some of them will belong to the Scratched kids in the new session who go God Tier OH MAN.

OH MAN maybe we'll even learn the Guardian's names! I didn't even think of that until now.

11/11/11 can't come soon enough. (although I will be disappointed if we don't get a Guardian story at some point)

So just a thought.

We know in the Troll scratch session the original players became ancestors. Presumably the same thing would happen in the Kids' scratched session. Only the kids removed themselves from the scratch.

Which means they may not reset at all so there are no ancestors which means no new Kids.

I think it's more an indicator of absolutely nothing at all. Hussie wants to make these designs available, but doesn't want to say if the associated characters will make god tier, won't make god tier, or even if a different character entirely gets it instead. If he put "Terezi, the Seer of Mind" or "Nepeta, the Rogue of Heart" there, it would imply that they do end up getting to wear them, which may be untrue - and if it winds up being true, then it could alternatively seen as being a spoiler. Saying ??? leaves everything ambiguous.

As for holding out for designs, maybe I'll get those too! But Time, Space, and Mind are suitably cool enough that I don't feel like waiting.

Man, I am so pumped up for Act 6. There was so much we knew about what happened pre-scratch thanks to the Trolls, Doc Scratch, and time travel shenanigans. But we know very little about the other side of the Scratch, and I'm looking forward to finding out.

I'm waiting to see the other designs before I commit to buying, since I'm only getting one. But right now I'm leaning towards space. Is this a one time sale though? I'd thought they put out more eventually if they sell out.

"What are you waiting for, Slick?"

fun fact: I was probably going to do something with this (journal-wise) in the event of a KJH win. It fits because, in an earlier power ranking, FFD assigned Black to me and Descend to numbers. Also because Jack has typically been associated with the bloc in meta.

It's basically there for, as far as I can tell, going "THIS IS SCARY".

Because it was said to be the thing Hussie was most afraid of in the very first author insert part or something.
