A homestuck sideblog; i like meta and genfic probably too much; my faves include terezi and jade; i think that the greater part of homestuck is objectively trash; i write sometimes; sj inclined. Tracked tag hypotheticalanomaly.
MC ESCHER x HOMESTUCK - happy 413!!! (TITLES: Weightlessness in the Canonical / Horrorterrors in Cue Ball / A Perfectly Impossible Cube / i warned you about the penrose staircase bro! i told you dog!)
Under the cut: my palamedes' sollux DNA proof, recently unearthed while rummaging through tazmuir's fanfic for vrisrezi quotes (vote vrisrezi here!).
@diamond-rings-and-gutter-bones as per request. (note if you want to see me talk more about tlt or post with any regularity you'll have to find me at my main at @augerer!)
Also please note I've turned off reblogs on this post because I don't want to be misconstrued as trying to get into discourse about tlt being homestuck fanfic with the serial numbers filed off, which for the record i think is completely untrue. although as you've been mentioned i think you can reblog if you'd like to reply!
From "The Last Hearing of Gamzee Makara", urbananchorite:
Kanaya is mopping a little at the cracked goggles with an embroidered handkerchief, smelling luminous, clean. “Sollux was a marvel,” she says, with surprising warmth.
From Gideon the Ninth:
"Sextus was a marvel," admitted Harrow.
"Too bad you didn't marry him. You're both into old dead chicks."
(second line maintained for the Aradia comparison).
From "BL4CK HOL3, green 2un", urbananchorite:
The story is a terezi-narrated oneshot about the moment when Sollux dies piloting the meteor through the veil. I think it illustrates well the type of Sollux characterization that ua and e.g. paratactician generally had (not entirely the same as canon sollux) which is specifically what palamedes has the vibe of. Also there's the very similar line at the end.
Blood comes in great mustardy gouts from his empty eyeholes. It fills up his goggles and squelches out the rims, khaki on cranberry. It leaks out his nose and you know his screams without hearing them; not from the pain, but as acceleration. You know what he’s like, don’t you? His mind is cracking its whip to never mind his shell, his meat, where the hell did they ever get him. They’re bullshit. An ecstasy of contempt. Do it, asshole, do it, do it.
You think you can hear his bloodpusher pounding, quicker and quicker, hurling itself against his ribcage with beating wings. You think you pinpoint when it starts to give; when it misses those first few beats and he screams through them, the moment when at last Sollux Captor’s heart bursts. The remaining ten seconds he runs on adrenaline and wild, maniac stubbornness, his mind running up a bill that his body can't pay. His mind skips town, his mind goes running far into the distance. There's so much light. You swear you can see it.
[. . .]
Sollux becomes a falling star.
From Gideon the Ninth:
"Yes," said Palamedes. "I also know you must have studied radical thanergetic fission, so you know what happens when a necromancer disperses their entire reserve of thanergy very, very quickly."
[. . .]
The sickroom exploded into white fire, and the bonds pinning Gideon snapped. She fell hard against the wall and spun, drunkenly, lurching back down the corridor as Palamedes Sextus made everything burn [. . .] She ran for her life down the long corridors, past the ancient portraits and crumbling statues, the grave goods of the tomb of Canaan House, the mechanisms of this feeble shitty machine crumbling as Palamedes Sextus became a god-killing star.
why take my word for it? VRISREZI QUOTES FROM TAMSYN MUIR:
the context here in this fanfic is that after terezi ("you") has to kill vriska ("she") in order to save the rest of their friends, and then she's having a horrible time and goes into the room with vriska's body where she starts hallucinating vriska sitting up and talking to her. (classic tamsyn muir).
2. The serendipity gospels is usually thought of the fanfic where terezi gets into an insane situationship with gamzee but it has some crazy vriska/terezi moments that have haunted me for years. see:
(Terezi is the speaker)
(Terezi is once again the speaker)
3. this piece of art illustrating a scene from tsg that never got written that has been my phone background for about eight years.
anyway its so fr to say vrisrezi is griddlehark's mother. i'm saying this having loved griddlehark since i preordered gideon the ninth months before it was released, which i only did because i liked tamsyn muir's homestuck fanfic: vote vrisrezi.
it's so fucking funny the way vriska's narration is written. it's literally designed to rewire the brains of teenage boys. "she guesses it's flattering that you want to be her though. she guesses she doesn't mind. it's cool." "you wish you could be her. oh wait, you are her!" literally no survivors
