HOMESTUCK DISCUSSION THREAD

[Thor]

I like how the trolls have been used in the last few updates. Not too long of conversations, witty banter, and good character development.

I think the blind one is setting up to fuck over Dave like she did John. The "update" implied that, contrary to speculation, she really DID intend for John and Jade to die. It wasn't just a harmless prank.

like "hey guys, new homestuck!"

Too obvious. How about "I WARNED YOU ABOUT UPDATES DOG! I TOLD YOU BRO! "

[Marlin Clock]

Every time I see that this thread has been updated that itself is a clue to at least check the site.

[Thor]

you all saw the sweet bro and hella jeff official movie right?

[PolyhedronClock]

His latest blog on his website says that he's pretty much finished the end of act, but can't upload it yet because comcast is being poop. That mailbox page is pretty much just a place holder.

[Slurpee]

glad I stayed up late.
Descend.

[BinaryClock]

jesus christ

[Slurpee]

okay, so

here's what just happened:

dave was climbing up to the nest his kernelsprite built, presumably to break open the eggy thing, which was like his version of john's apple and rose's bottle, but his sprite, like, pecked him on the head, and he fell. dave was probably right in his initial plan to wait for it to hatch.
Bro cut the meteor (that was about to crush Dave) in half, to buy him some time. the rocket skateboard thing saved dave from falling to death

mom, dad, and granpa are still approaching Skaia on the ship

jack noir, who we previously saw kill the black queen, take her ring, and gain the upgrades supplied by john, rose, and dave's prototyping, and who carcinogeneticist basically said is probably the final boss, Wrecks. Shit. Up.
like, full on genocide of WV's united armies. I think he might have killed some of the minibosses with that crazy red shit he did I'm not entirely sure.

the babies are transported to their respective meteors

jack picks up the white king's staff
which is like
bad, but sorta predestined because black is supposed to win and trigger the descent of the veil
and so yeah the veil starts to descend

the draconian dignitary, who was diamonds droog in the trolls' session/midnight crew intermission, creates Bec, Jade's loveable hellbeast, and sends him off, which presumably was the purpose of stealing Rose's journals (the insane meowing was cryptographic genetic code for creating Bec. presumably the master plan is for Jade to prototype Bec, which, as the trolls have been saying from the get-go, will royally fuck everything up horribly and completely, because Bec is really really powerful and presumably Jack will receive Bec powers if/when Bec is prototyped)

anyway
jack obliterates Prospit and severs it from its moon (where John and Jade are), and I guess shows up on Dave's planet, and Bro totally fights him because he's awesome or something. I don't know this part didn't really make chronological sense to me. do the planets exist before their respective kid enters the medium? I thought Dave didn't enter until the bit coming up. we better not be seeing more of that abandoned timeline this shit is confusing enough already.

so the moon starts like fucking crashing towards the battlefield (which I can't remember but I think is Skaia), and Jade's dreamself wakes up John's dreamself right before collision
Jade's dreambot explodes irl, like we knew would happen from some of the troll conversations (I don't think it's completely clear whether hers or John's dreamselves survived the collision, but her conversation with adiosToreador certainly foreshadowed one of them dying, and I don't know what the point of Jade waking up John's dreamself would be if he just died, and the robot did blow up, so yeah)
the explosion from the dreambot sends real jade flying out the window of her tower, I guess.

the automated meteor defense system the trolls mentioned activates, and it's awesome

dave enters the medium or whatever. freaking finally.

the meteors start hitting

and finally we see Bec, presumably awaiting Jade's arrival.


I think

[Thor]

why is this shit taking so long to load

Edit; Watched it in a mirror, you got some stuff wrong Slurp.

Dave has already been in the medium for a while. The movie just want back in time a bit at the start to show how he entered because they skipped that before. Right after they showed how he entered the IMMEDIATELY jumped back to "current" time.

Picking up the kings staff was the exact action that started the reckoning.

I don't know why bro showed up either

Johns dream self did NOT die

Jade is NOT falling out of her window, her real self is okay

that's all I got

[Marlin Clock]

No, that was clearly Jade's real self falling.

E: I feel like the guardians are just arriving to the worlds the same way the kids are, by being transported into them since they're in the same buildings.

I can only assume bro just landed back onto his apartment before the egg hatched?

[PolyhedronClock]

When I first saw it, I thought that Jack just went insane and started to kill everything on Skaia. I didn't realize that WV united such a large proportion of the soldiers together.

 But to be honest, I don't that think Skaia is done being transformed yet. When John's prototype was added, it became a 3x3 chess board with two kings When Rose's was added, it became a normal chessboard. When Dave's was added, it became a planet with war on it. When Jade's prototype gets added, I'm pretty sure it'll change again.

[TequilaClock]

That theory of the Tab hallucination is so funny and possible to be told. Never thought of it.

[TequilaClock]

so we are on the future, again, but this time joining the moment between the massacre from the deserted lands

I'm sure I have seen that Jack doll before...

[TequilaClock]

Well this is sad

[PolyhedronClock]

hohohoho, PM doesn't take shit from nobody

[Thor]

I didn't take PM for the type to just fucking decapitate a nigga

[TequilaClock]

oh shit PM just summoned Jack and CD. With the green box!

[PolyhedronClock]

god im starting to love jack, even if he did kill dream jade

[Silly Putty Clock]

Has it occurred to anyone that Jack should be part Future Dave now?
