I personally don't understand it...

It's kinda hard to get into, I had to try a few times, but once you're into it, it makes a bit more sense

I realized that I disappeared from here after so much time spent lurking...-whine- I can't believe its been a month since the last post. :( We need to bring this back to life, especially since the updates that have happened. OTL

Speaking of updates, does any body else feel the need to look at fan art or discussions concerning an update right after reading one?

Update fan art or discussions didn't interest me much before, but now it drives me nuts when I can't find fan art of a new character or a new development in the story right after I've read it. I know it takes time to draw and color something but I still can't help wishing for stuff to be already up on DA or Tumblr :sweat:

Tumblr always explodes after Hussie updates. I may read it but I try to stay out of the fandom, too many obnoxious fans that have to ruin it for everyone with how they try and cram it down everyone's throats.

Heehee, well I guess every fandom would have those :lol: I keep hearing about shipping wars and how there are lots of people who force their otps on other people but I personally haven't met anyone like that =3 I've been to two cons with lots of Homestucks in them already and I have yet to see anyone confront someone who did't share their preferences. However, I did see lots of people ask about Homestuck and get swarmed by fans who'd love nothing more than to "tell you about Homestuck".

I wish I could have told them to run for it.

Just run! :XD

I've been in the fandom for about a year now and haven't met anyone like that either...

I love looking at fanworks. There are a lot of really great artists and writers in this fandom. I haven't been on the forums very much, but it's pretty much what half of my tumblr consists of now. :XD

Lols, same here :D And I recently found out that there was a Homestuck Shipping Olympics. Anybody been in it or anybody joining this year?

I made it in under Team DaveSol, eheh. :ninja:

Also I forgot I subscribed to this thread, so... hi everyone! I've been Homestuck since March last year.

I didn't make it into the Homestuck olympics.
Oh wells. Maybe GamKar will happen next time.

@Hamlet: Hey Hamlet! :D Welcome to the thread~
DaveSol huh? =3 I don't remember if they ever spoke in the comics but I reckon their conversations would be the sassiest [for lack of a better term at the moment :sweat:]

@Demo: Oh wow! GamKar is a very popular team :) Good luck to you then if you sign up for next year's HSO :eager:

I don't usually ship characters, but if I do I tend to go with the more canon ideas. :lol:

No canon conversations, no. But yeah I think their personalities would mesh really well. :yes:

DaveSol is my main ship, I do have a few other minor ones, nothing too crazy though. I mostly joined the Olympics to make new friends and such.

No new friends for Demo.
*becomes a hermit* :ninja:

I prefer the canon ones too :yes: [Hoping Karkat and Terezi are still together X3] But if something turns up in the story that gets two characters I like to interact or if I find awesome fan art of a pair I never considered shippable before, I tend to go a little crazy fan-girling over them :XD

Oh man, you guys post fast :lol:

What other ships do you guys like? =3

Yeah, Dave and Sollux are two of my favorites so... shipping instincts took their course and here we are. Not to say I dislike any canon couples though!

Oh, a few. Hmm. I like Dave/Rose, John/Vriska, Jade/Karkat... Droog/Slick. Dirk/Jake haha. And Equius<>Nepeta of course!

Droog/Slick...
...oh my.... :oops:

I also like Equius/Nepeta (or) Aradia, Dirk/Jake, and Terezi/Karkat.

Oh yes~ Droog/Slick <3

I can't wait to see what'll happen when Dirk actually confesses to Jake :eager: But I'm also rooting for Jane and I hope she gets a second chance to tell Jake how she feels, ehehe.

Her reply to Jake... :headdesk:

I wonder if there's a ship for Roxy/Eridan :ninja:

So much second-hand embarrassment for Janey. x_x

What are your ships, Minty?

It wouldn't surprise me if there was a Roxy/Eridan ship especially since their rifles are similar.

I've seen a bit of art for Rox and Eri. :yes: I think they'd be hilarious together, both getting pale-zoned and all.

I think Roxy would drive Eridan mad with her drunken antics, but he'd be too desperate to care. xD

I ship Karkat/Terezi mainly. Then there's GamKar, SolFefEri :XD, Equius/Aradia, CrockPot, Dirk/Jake, Dirk/John, JohnKat, and Karkat/Jade. Recently there's Droog/Condesce :XP

EDIT: Oh, and Slick/Hussie too, hehe.


It'd also be cute to see him all embarrassed at Roxy's approaches :heart:

Oh my god, Slick/Hussie? Ahaha

I'm leaning towards DD ♠ Condense lately, since she is a queen and all. And their main objective is to dethrone the Queen.

That's true. But they kinda like how she handles things, though. So I dunno if they'll stick to their original objectives. And her hair is really fluffy~<3
