Ah, yeah you're right. My bad.

That there be some hardcore rebranding.

SPORKKIND is what I am calling her specibi.

(You make a mental note that when you turn 18 and inherit the company you will change it back to a spoon, you love the spoon.)

As Feferi planned to inherit and rebuild the entirety of troll society from the ground up, so too does Jane plan for great and even nobler changes in her empire.

I think some people have forgotten this spritelog.

So, HIC is not, in actuality, ANYONE'S mother. Not sure how it holds up post-scratch, but I can only assume that, as terry kiser is present in both timelines, I'm going to assume it's true until Hussie proves otherwise.

EDIT: Also, there's something here I'm hoping one of you can clarify:

She should arrive any minute now. When she does, she will find nothing but ruins and dust. If she cared to look closer, she would find a city of slain exiles, a man on the moon, and a pair of black lovers locked in a deadly dance. But whether she looks or not, one thing will find her with certainty.

A new employment opportunity.

Who is the man on the moon? I get city of slain exiles (Intermission 1, Midnight Crew vs. the Felt) and pair of black lovers (Spades Slick and Snowman, as of [S] Cascade), but I can't figure man on the moon. Is it Scratch? Lord English (who was "already here" but not circumstantially simultaneously "summoned" yet)? Hussie? Some other fool? Perhaps the troll we saw here?

[Art of Hilt]

Yes, Doc Scratch is the man on the moon. Doc Scratch is actually known to troll society this way in a legendary capacity.

You consult with your MAGIC CUE BALL, an extremely rare treasure you recently plundered from an ancient crypt, and one of many rumored to be hidden across the globe. Each at one time belonged to the strange and powerful man fabled to live on the green moon, but have since managed to escape his vision.

Welp, uh, that was an interesting series of updates.

Stuff:

The 13th troll either doesn't know shit about the hemospectrum (a distinct possibility, given the weird time shit involved) or s/he has blood like Karkat's. Or possibly rainbow blood, to troll the fandom.

UU knows a crapload about everything that's been going on. It also looks like s/he is about to play out his/her own session.

Uranian is an interesting word. It originally referred to someone with a female psyche in a male body, and later came to be used as a more catch-all term for homosexuality. Given the very distinct girl-vibes I'm getting off of him/her, I'm guessing that the name hints that UU is a guy.

Oh hey it's John on the trunk lid. Looks like Grandpa, but with Johns' glasses, messier hair, and what looks like his ghost-slime thing on his breast pocket.

Mom is indeed a Lalonde. It looks like she might be following in her daughter's footsteps, oooor she could be the Hero of Void, since that's apparently the power Equius and his ancestor had.

Jane is confirmed as the Hero of Life.

Jane is also using Karkat's :B there, or at least I think that's what she's doing, which is interesting. EDIT: No wait, she's doing it because her two front teeth do the B thing. Still I wouldn't put it past Hussie to mean something. =/

Some other stuff happens (okay it's all talking but it's interesting talking) go read the damn update.

EDIT: I have come to the conclusion that Homestuck is a social experiment designed to see exactly how much speculation you can provoke with a webcomic.

[Arhra]

Sooooooo, think UU's from the first troll session?

[Mr.Bookworm]

My first thought was actually that UU is the Sufferer. He's Jegus, after all, so the caduceus as his symbol kind of fits, and the cancer symbol didn't become associated with him until after his death. He also presumably has Karkat's blood, which would explain the type color.

The Sufferer never really struck me as the bubbly, personable type, though.

That seems most reasonable to me. The alternatives would be either that they're from a) our troll session, which doesn't fit with everything we know up to now, or b) a entirely new session and God knows we need that even less than one new troll.

I kind of thought the Sufferer too, but he was the Signless before he was the Sufferer--he wouldn't have a symbol unless he adopted one for himself. UU also probably ought to have blue blood given Ophiuchus' placement, but Karkat should have yellow-green blood going just by that, so it might not matter (Karkat presumably not having yellow-green blood due to some mutation).

[BitVyper]

At this point, I'm sticking with my earlier guess about the Caduceus troll(?) being from pre-scratch Alternia, however... the symbol is a problem. We SAW the pre-scratch troll symbols, and they were just the current troll symbols reversed. UU is coming out of nowhere no matter where you put him(?).

At any rate, pre-scratch troll-verse is about the only place that makes any sense. He's obviously not from any of the sessions we've actually witnessed, and he confirmed himself that he's in a different session from the current batch. Given that he's also come out and said this involves four universes, and that the fourth pretty much has to be pre-scratch trollverse, that's about the only reasonable place to stick him. It just doesn't make an awful lot of sense as things stand.

As far as UU knowing a lot of things goes... he doesn't seem especially more informed than anyone who has been waking up on Prospit their entire life has been, although he's informed on different details. He reminds me of Jade back in the early acts, especially given that we've learned that she knew the basic purpose of the game since then.. The fact that he's been awake his entire life implies to me that he is in contact with a First Guardian, by the by.

Pretty much with you on this one, yeah.
