See whats funny is i see people harping about how DirkJake is "bad" and it sucks because it's.. messy. Its not exactly healthy either. But that's what's so fun about it!! Seeing representation of relationships in a way that strikes true with how most relationships are kinda janked to begin with!! Give me not perfect relationship representation give me mess, I will enjoy it fullheartedly. Its so much more interesting to pick apart and unpack than normal healthy relationships! There is so many ways dirkjake can go and honestly it's fascinating!!

Also not to mention the "fucked up red string of fate" thing they have going for each other. That's so nuts. They're like soulmates, but it doesn't mean they're necessarily compatible, doesn't mean they're necessarily going to get along, just that they're basically stuck together like some horrid prank.

Not to mention the very fact that Jakes planet has the word soul, depicted as x or chi from platos timaeus LITERALLY CARVED INTO HIS PLANET.

I cannot express how absolutely NUTS it makes me. Hey what if we both had planets. And mine had a reference to you carved into it. What if even in trying to escape you when i was in peril i believed in you so much, i actualised a version of you i keep in my head to fight for me. What if our planets collided into each other. What if you had to watch that happen. Hey. Are you listening.

Dirk: I’m not against vaping, but man, vaping two inches from my face on the subway is a ridiculous asshole kind of move. This dude was billowing like he was auditioning for the role of haunted house fog machine. The humidity in the whole car changed, he was ruining haircuts. Just jump starting the water cycle. Condensation was dripping down my glasses. People were slipping off poles, it was chaos. It was like watching one man try to terraform the moon. A planet with one dense, root beer scented atmosphere blocking out the sun and choking all life.

Dirk: I don't think there's any hope left for you.

on messy dirkjake. there is a post someone made (tbh might have been you??? lol) about how dirkjake is a gay couple with straight couple problems lmao. i always liked them because in the middle of this massively high pressure environment where the kids are literally gods and dealing with horrific trauma etc etc..... dirkjake have an almost mundane couples drama arc. not mundane at all to read, but mundane in the sense that it's the type of relationship problems lots of people will experience and it is heartwrenching. as the reader you can see what they need to do to fix their relationship while knowing they absolutely will not do that. both staying together and breaking up will actively make them both worse.

and idk the contrast of the fantastical super meta 4th wall breaking fictional setting that is homestuck with this much more grounded/classic (but no less emotionally impactful) story of two people who just aren't compatible (but they COULD be) (but they also COULDN'T be) is why I love dirkjake. or something. hope this makes sense lmao I just really like your dirkjake takes :]

Anon i really like your take. This is absolutely wonderful. You put it perfectly.
