Good. The Sovereignstuck fandom wins again.

Enough people have applied Classpecting to Fictional Characters that are not Homestuck. What we need to start doing is start Classpecting entire pieces of Fiction.

Happy Hatchday, Presae! Nothing else happened today. There's no other holiday occurring.

Happy Disability Pride Month.

the way people reclaim vriska as disabled is so fucking infuriating to me. like yeah this character that bullies the disabled is actually disabled themselves

… She literally is, though. Like, visibly. She’s missing an arm and an eye.

This isn’t calling a character something for no reason, she literally is disabled.

????????

Unprompted Elevator Pitch Time!!

Hello! My name is Nekro, and me and my team are creating a Horror Sequel/Spin-Off webcomic named Sovereignstuck. You should follow it, and here's why.

SOVEREIGNSTUCK is an in-progress MSPFA about 12 Teens, Their Friends, and a God-Making Machine - an RPG, simply titled SVURB, pieced together through mysterious scraps of code. Together, this ragtag team of young adults will have to figure out how to take control of themselves, the narrative, and win the game. But sovereignty over the story itself isn't something that can be taken without pulling a few teeth, and it's up to them to decide whether it's their own, or somebody else's...

Our main characters are a group of 12 - 10 Trolls, one Human, and one Carapacian - referred to as The Players. They all hail from the planet Afterra, a place once called Earth C by those who created it. Armed with many strange choices in weaponry, clashing personalities, and their own understanding of the Myth of The Construction, this group has found themselves the focus of the Game's attention... Much like their Ancestors, eaten alive by the game and turned into NPCs, and their newfound companions. Fighting alongside the 12 Players are The Patrons; a team of 12 Trolls who miraculously escaped their failed session one year ago, and have been dragged back into the game to provide The Players some much needed guidance. Some of them... Don't seem too keen on helping, though. You may recognize that troublemaking group - they're Reincarnations of some rather familiar faces.

Horror and antics ensue when The Players realize that the version of the game they're playing - SVURB Ver. 1.0.0 - is not only heavily glitched, down to making even their Aspect Wheel buggy... But also completely unlike the game that was spoken of in legends. How do you even cope with the implications of a Session where Light is opposite to Doom and Life is opposite to Void? How do you cope with a game where the worse your Ascension Death is, the more powerful you are? How do you cope with a game that drives you not to become a better person, but to become a better character?

At its heart, Sovereignstuck is a story about Narrative Control, Autonomy, Growing Up, and Breaking and Repeating Cycles... It's a love letter to Various Mythologies, Spin-Off RPGs, and the insanity that was the 2000's. It's a story about stories, a story about community, and a story about video games.

And if you may join us on this journey...

...We hope you enjoy the ride.

told my friend “i have this desktop folder full of violent homestuck panels what kind of meme video do i make with it” and he was like ���set it to an oingo boingo song”

okay i want to hear your opinion on this. out of all the alpha trolls, which one do you think sucks the Worst and which one do you think sucks the least. genuinely curious

Difficult and Vague Question. Could be answered in a whole number of ways. Part of the difficulty in finding an angle in it is that Morality is highly subjective, and also some of the shit the Alpha Trolls get up to is so reprehensible it's astounding. I'm choosing a combined angle of "Worst/Least Difficult to Survive a Conversation with", and "Worst/Least Sucks Traits + Actions". This is because, for the most part, the male Alpha Trolls are generally intended to be Spineless Intolerable Misogynistic Morally Bankrupt Sex Offenders, and the female Alpha Trolls are, for the most part, Chilling.

If someone has an answer for the first question that isn't "Cronus", and that answer doesn't start with "Aside from Cronus", Stop Listening To Them. That's the point of his character. He's a Serial Child Predator, an unrepentant Sex Offender, and a Turbo-Bigot who wants to kill people for being Minorities, he's the correct answer. As far as an answer that excludes Cronus goes, the answer necessarily has to be one of the men, sans Mituna... But really, it depends on what crimes you personally can stand less that day, or which kind of guy you specifically have more trauma about. Lol. Cronus, Rufioh, Kankri, Horuss, and Kurloz are all insanely evil men in different ways. Make them coworkers at a shitty failing pub, and you'll have a sitcom for the ages.

The people who suck the least are the Women without contest, minus Meenah, and nuance for Damara.

Last bit there is probably somewhat Controversial, but, like. Damara's perfectly nice if you're not an Alpha Troll, but deservedly an utter bastard hellion if she is with them. I don't approve of her methods, but I do approve of her torturing them. We see her interact with people who are not the Alpha Trolls, and she's plenty nice to them. Makes sense, considering she was mentally broken into acting like that by other members of her team repeatedly gaslighting and victimizing her for years, rather than her just having always been Like That. Meenah is impulsive to the point of crimes happening regularly and seemingly cannot stop herself from pursuing children. Meenah's the person your Intrusive Thoughts convince you you would be if you didn't have a crippling Anxiety Disorder to "keep you in check". She's the main female exception to the rule of "The Women are Chilling and the Men are Insane Criminal Perverts". Diversity Win..?

Porrim's just a Feminist and is pretty normal, though her Social Position shows. She tends to be the default pick for "Most Normal", but since she's a woman written by Hussie, she still has some sucks traits. Latula's got issues managing her combined Mental Health problems and her insane case of Internalized Misogyny, both of which Porrim seems to be trying to help her out with. Porrim also seems to be succeeding at helping her. Good for them! Aranea might've done all of that, but she was a preventable disaster. I don't think any of that would've happened if people just listened to her for once. She had to pay her own best friend to listen to her, and even then she didn't do it. Meulin is a bit sucks, but a lot of that has to do with her main Character Traits being "Annoying Fangirl" and "Fujoshi". Even with those in mind, these aren't crimes, especially not ones of the same caliber as Cronus', and she's really funny about both things anyway. Also, she's quite passionate about Disability, particularly Deafness. As a Hearing Disabled person myself, I like this about her, so she can do anything.

My personal ranking is... Cronus is the Worst both of the men and in general, Meenah's the worst of the Women. Porrim, Meulin, and Latula are the least sucks women and likely the least sucks people in the whole cast, and Mituna is the least sucks man.

Fascinating. I once read a post by a Transfeminist user I quite respect, pointing out this bit in Egbert's intro segment, pointing out the really interesting undertones in it in relation to Gender. It was an eye-opening read, and was one of the things that made me get really interested in rereading Homestuck, to see just how much one can really read June into early Homestuck especially. I personally don't quite believe Hussie quite intended June to be canon this early on - she had so little planned at that point, though I'm quite open to the idea that they had the idea some point later into Homestuck's development, due to Hussie's apparent fondness for June prior to the Toblerone Wishes, and apparently having already planned to canonize June prior to them, too.

The reading is quite compelling, though. It works.

I always thought that, at the time of writing at least, it was intended to be an early display of John's Conservatism. It's definitely how I ended up reading it each time I read/reread Homestuck - though, I must admit, I'd personally never heard of or considered June as an option prior to me rejoining the Fandom in... What, 2019? I was Ignorant to it. simply. And I remained so for a while, due to a combination of being fed Bad Information, being a bit of a Bad Thinker, and a personal failure of Unaddressed Transmisogyny. However, Analysis is also a Storytelling Technique, and I like the things this Analysis has to say. I like the Emotional Weight behind this as a display of Gender Dysphoria. It's really, really good. It works perfectly as a metaphor for Suffocating, Conservatively-Flavored Gender Discomfort. What a specific pain that is, growing up in a Conservative house in Conservative times in a Conservative area, all while Queer. You think you are Conservative, just like your parents are, just like you should be, but something's wrong, and something hurts.

This dude is a dogshit Games Journalist, but he's an awesome Blogger. I would genuinely follow this if it was a real blog.

[nekropsii]

I really enjoy reading long posts you’ve written, especially about topics like the alpha trolls. The style feels very clear and understandable to me, it’s delightful and has led to me learning much more about the alpha trolls than I knew before finding your blog

Thank you very much!! It's very appreciated. :)
