Homestuck (WARNING: SPOILERS)

[Pixelmage]

So... Let me get this straight... Hussie just made Homestuck fanon an integral part of Homestuck canon? O.o

[narrativedilettante]

I wouldn't think of it that way... more that there's a place for Hussie-approved Homestuck stories created by a wider pool of people than just himself.

Pixie, sometimes you read into things way, waaay too much.

But but but but... It doesn't make sense that way! It's cool when things don't make sense!

No it's not, it's just confusing! XD

[Anura]

The gigapause will end next month. Just a heads up.

[Endless Sea]

...shen me!? :O

Wow, I'm sure to be confused out of my mind by then, I barely remember what was going on! Even when I was following it I didn't know what was going on anymore! XD

[Anura]

Upd8.

Also the site's down so you can't see it right now.

[Anura]

Hussie, what.

What, What WHAT!?

[Anura]

Holy... fucking... shit.

This has to be a doomed timeline. There is no way that can stick. Right?

[Endless Sea]

Excuse me while I laugh my ass off.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAA man that was amazing

[Victin]

People have said it, but I'll repeat it: holy. Fucking. Shit.

[Pixelmage]

So, let's see if I get it... I mean, I'm not caught up in all of it, as far as recall I'm stuck somewhere around the time when the kids enter the game and that first intermission that shows the Midnight Crew vs. Lord English's timescrew team or something not at all like what I remember, anyhow, that's besides the point...

Homestuck entered a hiatus for just about one whole year, only to finally update sometime around last week and then suddenly "end" in this Game Over?



Considering we're talking about Andrew Hussie here, this could well enough be legit, you know? Or he might pull of a failure at failing and Game Over the Game Over screen because reasons.

[Anura]

It's not the end. It's just serious shit. And probably (hopefully) not the alpha timeline.

[Adell]

Death is fairly meaningless in this comic, so I'm not really freaking out, but still a pretty epic flash. Too bad I can't follow what's going on at all XD

[eli_gone_crazy]

i'm still reveling in Homestuck tears.

[IslaKariese]

Far as I can tell, practically everyone's fucking dead. Which, admittedly, is par for the course with this series, but god fucking damn it, we waited a year for this and Hussie will seriously have fans after his blood if shit doesn't get better really fucking soon.

[Pixelmage]

[...] we waited a year for this and Hussie will seriously have fans after his blood if shit doesn't get better really fucking soon.

That's probably the very reason he's doing things like this.

For things to be more satisfying when they get better or to get practice dodging the pitchforks?

[Anura]

He said that he had this part mostly ready before the break, but that even he isn't cruel enough to leave the fans hanging on that note for a year.

[IslaKariese]

It's more that he's leaving it on this note at all really, but I can appreciate the thought regardless.

[narrativedilettante]

Too bad I can't follow what's going on at all XD

I hear ya. Since I haven't taken the time for a re-read, I'm struggling to remember how things stood before the break, and even so, I often have trouble keeping track of what's happening until Hussie sums it up in a recap or something.

So yeah, I can see a lot of people are dying, but aside from that I'm not at all sure what's what.

I haven't had time for a reread either, but all I really needed to remember was that this was basically a Mexican Standoff consisting of about a dozen people, John's still stuck in insta-transport mode, the Aces were trying to do something with Jade's body (likely save her) while Dave thought they were gonna hurt her further and followed them, and Aranea's gone batshit.
