Homesuck: Vriska Rising - Page 481

Rainbow Drinkers are fakey fake fakes, just like fairies and magic.

However I do have the feeling that all the friends that Dream Jade made while she was dead were the trolls that died, or at least their dead Dream Selves, out in the Dream Bubbles of the Horrorterrors.

Hussie's seamless transitioning skills smoothly comes into play in this latest update.

Dunno. Kanaya's intro sure talked about the daywalking undead as if they were documented fact.

re kanaya's intro and death in Homestuck, as i figure it the most relevant line to consider and anticipate a callback to is not that there are undead things everywhere, but that death is pretty confusing without the finality.

I talk about Superman like he's a documented fact.

WHICH HE IS

One of these things is not like the other things

Why does it increasingly feel like I'm reading the aftermath of an author's nervous breakdown?
...It's at this moment that I wish Andrew had an editor or a co-writer to say "Hey, buddy, we're all for the zany stuff, but let's not take it too far."

Does this mean the Andrufio kiss is going to become relevant?

Bluh.
I'm not too happy with the recent developments either. The deaths were handled terribly, and you guys are right. Andrew may be having fun trolling the readers, but I thiiink he's taking it too far. He's nearing the endgame, shit be gettin' dramatic, and he could really make use of that to really let homestuck shine. I'm not saying it has to be super-serious! I like the comedic undertone. And I know he wants to retain it. But there's better ways to do that.

But he has delivered in the past, and, after the excellence of Hivebent, Imma give him the benefit of the doubt. I wanna see where he's going with this. If it is indeed "Lol, 2 characters dead", then I will be the first to fill his formspring with angry accusations. But until then, I'll withhold judgement.

The wallet is the most underwhelming update in a long while.
