Pt. 4 of Thoughts about Homestuck (Act 6 - Act 6 Interlude 5)

As always, Spoiler warning

Also by Thoughts I mean My Opinion on Character, Situation, and how I relate to it.

i just like the guy because this picture is something some friends of mine must endure almost daily, of which i am so thankful for their patience as i type yet another 2k word summary of something they half care about.

Okay I was like "i'll wait to finish act 6 before sharing my thoughts" but HOW LONG IS ACT 6. GOD. WHEN DOES IT END.

Not complaining. Just impressed.

I must reveal something, is that shipping is, usually, one of my favourite thing to do. Hence the Nepeta pfp. I have been told by some informant (a friend of mine) that dave and karkat end up canon, and so do kanaya and rose.

to which i cried, but that was unrelated.

I am about to start drafting a fanfic for dave and karkat about time loops because kagerou daze is a song that is stuck in my head and will apply to them. also because there's only 15 fanfics with that tag with them which is insane in a webcomic about Time Shenanigans.

But back to the topic at hand. 

So I really like Dirk, Roxy, Jane and Jake. I am INSANELY MADDENED by the Teen Drama. I mean. I just stopped being a teen ("just" as in, i still don't know if im not a teen anymore, i feel like i keep acting like one), and most of their drama still hits too close to home. Like. The whole miscommunication bit between them is like, hey, stop spying on my conversations. what do you mean it was written years before i would act like that.

Well, that's also why i really like them. They're relatable. Well, Angel from 3 years ago would've related, but it didn't keep reading it so it's too late. Now it's karkat we're relating to. Though I think that's a universal constant, i would've related to him too back then.

I was already aware of the existence of the trickster mode, because of my old undertale phase and my slight obsession with AUs. Yes, I was one of them. now i'm with homestuck, what were you expecting from me. I did not vibe with. the flashing colors. and bright visuals. But I did vibe with the cute outfits! ONLY THAT. There's a song I quite like about that, which I didn't know was a song about homestuck when I first heard it. Anyway, I'm glad it didn't last. Wouldn't have handled it.

Also the song in question, i still really like it

And. God. Cal. Do I have thoughts on Calliope and Caliborn. 

I knew some character by the name of Calliope existed due to the test result i got from the classpect quiz, which was Muse of Space. I still don't know what that eats in winter, but I know who Calliope is! I absolutely love her, she's very relatable (WOW, who ISN'T relatable at this point? Wait a second, we'll get to Caliborn) and I love her fanarts and like. Body dysmorphia/dysphoria. And. yeah. um. She's great. I miss her.

caliborn. Wait, let's make it better. 

CALIBORN

in comic sans because i have no respect for him, and in red in similar fashion that he stole his sister's blood to type his words. except this time it's his blood. because I HATE HIM. Look. I disliked Jack Black. Sincerely. What he did was inexcusable. But what this kid did to the universe is somehow WORSE????? Like. That's not being capricious. that's just being. i don't have enough vocabulary to describe how much i wish to erase him. from. my mind i guess?? 
I can't say I like him. I actually quite despise him. But well, it shows his writing works! I feel Things about Plot!!!!! I am Moved by the Narrative. And by moved I mean enraged at his existence.

Okay I'll calm down.

See I was actually mirroring John's meltdown at Growing Up and realizing he actually really hates his favourite movie. The situation of the people on the boat/meteor really reminded me of the confinement, but also of the standstill i was stuck in a few months ago. Days on ends with no change, stuck in one place, and nothing ever improving. You tell yourself "it'll be over soon", or "at least I have people I like to keep me company" but when nothing changes, you just. kinda lose your mind figuratively. I don't need to describe the experience, most of us lived it. But that's what I see in their situation. Just. To have so much hope for things to change, but for now, you are stuck here, in this place, and nothing will change. Except yourself. And are you happy with how you are changing? Are you satisfied with how you'll get out of it? Actually you were better before, why did you change?
or that's what i think they're thinking. Specifically Terezi. I feel so bad for her.

Gamzee went from funny Clown guy to aposthle of the great croak or whatever and does Dave know that if he hadn't sent that videoclip things probably wouldn't have changed. Somehow it'll have been a doomed timeline because Gamzee didn't have the bodies to put in the kernelsprite for the new session but maybe that's not so bad. Maybe it would've been fine, actually!

but no. 

he is how he is. father of 1 and a half. 

I have so much more thoughts (Rose and Roxy's relation to alcohol, the MAYOR, the alpha trolls, vriska), but I believe this is long enough for now and will pick it back up later. Part 4.5?
