Homestuck Re-read Part 12: 7.8787% COMPLETE
No real, life update or anything this time. Sorry if anyone is reading this and was getting invested in that part of these posts. I did watch The Killer last night and it was excellent. I'm not doing Hard Boiled tonight because I want to get some stuff done on the pokemon thing.
Anyway you read that title. By the end of this upd8 we will have completed 7.8787% of homestuck (by word count, or 14.18% by page count). It really does emphasize how outsized act 5 and 6 end up being.
Upd8.
ACTUALLY ITS SATURDAY NOW
I'm not feeling great. This is just gonna be a highlight reel because I need to Read Homestuck and Write Blogpost otherwise I won't form the habit and I'll give up and stop and it'll be another thing I just feel bad about myself for.
HIGHLIGHT REEL
Does Jadebot dream of electric sheep? Why does her dream bedroom mirror her actual room so closely.
Jadebot flying looks adorable.
John changed his Pesterchumb handle.
Defaced posters. Which have seemingly always been defaced.
Extra cables are left behind to save the mayor's sash but are replaced by a blue package from the past.
Free therapy fuck yeah. Rose backs up my stuff about parents in homestuck. Rose sucks at architecture.
Muzack. Also our first view of Prospit and it's moon orbiting Skaia.
Jade has some really good precog, but the clouds aren't that impressive. Miss mail lady!
John too sleeps on Prospit, but he seems to be distressed.
Alchemy montage time. Suits, hammers, healing items, etc.
I need to read problem sleuth. Expensive problem sleuth hammer.
Oh hey did anyone else forget Dave was still locked in a duel with his brother. He looses but gets the game disks anyway. Lil Cal gets fucked up.
Another pesterlog from the past in a new perspective. This time we see it happened while Jade was asleep, and during an 'eclipse' on Propsit. I'm not sure that counts as an eclipse though, all things considered. It's more of a "Prospit's moon is entering Skaia's atmosphere and Jade is recieving visions in the clouds" seemingly. Dave's dreamself is awake on propsit and we get to see Bec arrive on earth in the past. It's not entirely clear to me at this point what was in the meteor that fell on Earth at this point though, and I don't remember from my first read.
Zipline! Wait, is that a cable.
Dave isn't made of time! Why would a maid have a sword, that's much too knightly for some poor maiden.
Months in the past We meet a new troll. Oh Kanaya...
Anime glasses get replaced with some aviators. and a third troll appears. I'm surprised Tavros is the third troll to be introduced. For some reason I thought it was someone more, purple. I completely forgot Dave just starts reverse sexually harassing him until Tavros blocks him. 10/10.
> AR: DROP AR. > AR: Enforce The Law
Jade's gift vanishes from her present, to a bit in Wayward Vagabonds past. Time shenanigans are starting to increase. A prophecy is seen and then completed near instantly.
A letter is sent back to the past igniting a new friendship from it's own already burning flame.
A fatherly beatdown of an agent of evil and it's stupid fucking hat. Peace is made between two people over this.
A giant wall inscribed with emerald text. Meanwhile, we're making this occur.
So much just happened.
Rose entered the medium, John ascended through his first gate and.
Jade has, Dave's sburb discs? Okay, sure. However that works. John's grandmother wrote the inscription detailing information about sburb in John's copy of Colonel Sassacre and then dropped it off the side of the island. So I guess that wasn't her knowing about the medium the first time. Must have made a mistake there. That'll go back in time somehow.
And there are, flowers that act as like, time locked storage boxes? Interesting. I think that ends up involving the Exile's in the future somehow but I'm not certain.
Rose prototyped Jasper's corpse and the cthulhu-girl-doll thingy.
We get to see a slow zoom out of the planet John is on, in the final few pages before the end of act 3.
That is the end of this upd8.
