Happy 4/13 you homestuckers, it’s that time of the year again

say what you want about homestuck but you gotta admit: absolute fire soundtrack for a webcomic, a media type that by all definition has no reason to have a soundtrack in the first place.

May I suggest Dave and Nepeta somehow being de-fused and having to process not being one again?

someone in the notes shared a fanfic that is exactly about this

An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works

i just want to take a moment to point out that in the past i complained about how some fanfics would depict john reacting to trans stuff and this fic gets it exactly right. THIS is john egbert.

everything else about the fic is also great

For everyone asking what Homestuck is about, I think I found a pretty decent and concise way to explain it.

[recursivewitch]

I've never read Homestuck but there's a type of media that I call "a Homestuck" and I think it's a useful categorization. The main criteria are:

long enough that the time investment is a serious barrier to entry

irrevocably changes your personality

brings something genuinely unique to the table. there is no real substitute for reading/playing/watching it in its entirety

Fate/Stay Night is a Homestuck. Worm is a Homestuck. When They Cry is a Homestuck.

Undertale has cultural impact similar to a Homestuck at first glance, but the fact that it's a pretty short and accessible game means that you don't get the particular mix of sunk cost fallacy and an intimate experience with a piece of media that results in you needing to connect with others who have already put in the time investment. You can buy your friends Undertale and expect them to play it if they're not too busy; telling a friend to read Homestuck is giving them a quest that, if accepted, will spark an odyssey. to read someone's Homestuck is an act of love without true equivalent.
