[image descriptions part 1:

ID 1: Skylla is sulking in a jail cell, saying, "one time I dreamt I got sent to death row because I had a countryish mullet instead of a gay alt one".

ID 2: Tyzias confides in Stelsa, "one time I dreamt a law was passed that made it illegal to say 'I'm gayer' when someone came out"

ID 3: Dave says, "one time I dreamt I met the patron saint of the gays". Nepeta does a cute pose. he continues, "she looked a bit like the Cheshire cat, but with green, red, and yellow stripes." Nepeta, now with stripes, does a threatening pose. "she could shapeshift into a human," he says as she transforms into Jade.

ID 4: Elwurd says, "one time I dreamt me and my entire class full of girls had to prepare and present an assembly to the school about Women's day". in her flashback, Bronya and Kanaya are with her in the library. she continues, "each person had to say what women are, i.e. powerful, strong, independent," while Chixie is shown at the microphone. Elwurd goes to the mic and narrates, " when it was my turn I said, 'women are gay,' and walked away for the next person to get to the mic". Kanaya says, "I mean you're not wrong". / end of IDs part one.

On Pesterquest, The Aftermath of The Homestuck Epilogues, and Why Homestuck Appeals To Us Still.

It's 1 AM, I'm exhausted and can't sleep, and I'm gonna bullshit a little. Ramble incoming, please read past the break if you still care about Homestuck, ignore if you don't, yadda yadda yadda.

Homestuck started out intriguing, it got better, it got wilder, and then it just kinda... broke under its own weight. And that was deliberate. Hussie delighted in this. The entire theme of the work in the end was breaking. Breaking the 4th wall. Breaking the premises. Breaking character arcs. Showing how stories break characters just by containing said characters.

Then came the Epilogues, and the Huss tried to break us. The fandom itself.

And... by all accounts... shit didn't work. We saw his clumsy attempt at satirizing the very nature of the fandom that we'd created (we, not he, as fandom is always the work of the fans, not the original creator of the work) and kind of collectively flipped him off.

Because we're Homestucks. We're already self-effacing to a ridiculous degree, but we know what works underneath us, we know what works underneath the plot, we know why we're here, and it's not for Hussie's masturbatory themes.

It was the worldbuilding and the characters.

That was it. The plot became negligible, because the creator didn't treat the plot with respect. We were just there for the character development, and when that went south (particularly in the Epilogues), we collectively said screw that, we're doing it our way. We wrote our own stories, our own epilogues, our own fanventures and AUs and fucking everything else imaginable.

We said, collectively, FUCK THAT, WE'RE PROTECTING WHAT WE LOVE IN THIS WORK BY TAKING IT FROM YOU.

Now, what does that sound like?

The ending of Pesterquest.

We're locking away OUR collective versions of the main cast, so they can be happy, or whole, or at least logically consistent, or at least not running in the opposite direction of the character development that everything SCREAMS they should have (looking at you, Jane).

So.

With that in mind, in 2023, what is Homestuck now?

What do we treat it as?

Commedia dell'arte.

It's a group of strong characters that can be put into almost any story. A nigh-universal cast, diverse and interesting, with built-in relationships and chemistry that can be savored or jettisoned as the plot requires.

But that's the kicker.

We have plots we care about.

And thus, we have transcended the original work. And with it we have helped the characters ascend. We have protected and guarded them, and they will not be remembered as characters from a webcomic that "used to be good".

Keep writing, Homestucks. Keep drawing. Keep spitting out incorrect quotes (which might as well be fucking correct at this point), scribbly comics, podfics, and fanventures that eclipse the original in all but word count.

Because, by all accounts, we're winning.

(Disclaimer: Yes, this includes the crew that are working on Hiveswap; it's pretty obvious they still Care About This Shit, and it doesn't share Huss' incredibly nihilistic late-game BS. I am including every HS creator EXCEPT The Waste of Space in here.)

That is all.
