Homestuck.XYZ 2.0

Oooo! I get to start one of these. Can't quite throw a chapter in the title, because it isn't considered a new chapter.

While not a huge amount of character stuff going on, it's clearly kicking the story up some amount.

Posting here because twitter is down.

*eh-hem*

Ring -Ring

ROSE: Hello?
JOHN: hey, jane just blew up my dad's house.
JOHN: that's really all there is to say about on the matter.

so are they going to at least go off planet so they DON'T destroy the tiny bit of life left?
or is vriska saying "fuck all this shit/u all got to go"

cant wait for vriska to destroy shit-ass earth c in shit-ass candy

Then all we gotta wait for is shit-ass meat dirk to inevitably be stopped by shit-ass robo-dave. Then we can resurrect precious Meat John and have everything be fine.

please.

I just want to see John immediatelly rocket himself upwards, go through the black hole and sucker punch Alt!Calliope and Dirk in the fucking face

That seems accurate enough to the Vriska mindset^tm

It was brought up by someone on the KF, but why didn't John blow away the bomb, the ship, or the fire with his motherfucking wind powers?
You know, his defining thing.

yeah same

what the fuck?
what in the actual fuck?
why did john let that happen?? why is jane doing that at all???? bitch a few chapters back you were saying fighting against other gods made you look bad and now youre bombing a literal holy place????????
fucking cheap ass drama holy shit.

it seems to be an ongoing Thing in candy that our dear heir of breath isn't always taking all the actions available.
Seeing That House, just like the one that Dad had at the beginning, I never realized how much it would hurt to see it burn to the ground.
The dramatic lighting, it reminds me a lot of how the skies looked back when the fires were going on during the summer over here where I live.
I can't wait to see how Vriska's SGRUB plan pans out.

This upd8 was absolutely stellar. The way that things moved from one place to the next was just fantastic and really had that good sense of sweeping scale. And the art quality... whoever drew those panels really outdid themselves.

I feel like either Vriska is just being really really stupid, or she is just being manipulated by dirk to create a new sburb session. We already know Dirk has control over the candy timeline ( as is evident when we see what happened with jane and dave). his ultimate goal to create a new sburb session to get a genesis frog to create a new universe that only he can control. so the fact that vriska is in support of eridacating Earth C in favor of creating a new sburb session makes me feel like she is being manipulated. Also it is incredibly sad to see what happened to John's house. Skaia is still using the common theme of fucking around with John and giving him more than he can take.

I am going to flip the fuck out if its really possible for people to just take the kids' code and play sburb using it. If sollux helps them do it, FINE. God king Sollux could do that. But otherwise, i am srsly going to pirouette straight through my window.

wait..... they can REVIVE GAMZEE OML I AM SO READY!!!!!
VRISKA. FOR CLOWN'S LOVE PLEASE, DEAR SHANGRI-LA, REVIVE HIM. AAAAAAAAAAAAAA.

Good update. I'm getting impatient for the new aliens, though. It's not longer suspenseful, show me what the hell Rose made.

I dont think the momb too that long to drop btw. Unless he was ready to use his powers, i think its reasonable he might not be able to stop it. Doubt he was expecting a bomb.
Also hes very slow to react in general. Site: Seeing dad dead by jack.

I'll be real and say that I don't like the fact that Johns house was seemingly destroyed for like, no reason in story. However I would like John to be spurred to real action and simply Go Off.

I'd also like to see him go truly grimdark because of this, the last thing he's ever had from Earth, his home, taken away from him. Though that's pretty much slim to none, due to how it seems to come about, but a girl can dream.

I wonder if, between Vriska wanting to kick off the Sgrub and Dirk trying to do Sgrub as well, it’ll result in some kind of two-seperate-sessions-are-actually-one-massive-session like the trolls, but on a bigger scale. The only two things I could see impeding this are the lack of communication and the lack of any actual players on Dirk’s side.

One way of getting that to happen is to have Dirk be the guy who made the entirety of this final version of the Game, and through Some Right Bullshit^tm it manages to somehow teleport into the black hole of Candy and then shit goes even more off the rails I guess.

can we get double god-tier MeatJohn
