I’m probably not re-opening this blog (but shit’s wild out here these days, so who knows).
What I am doing, however, is giving you all my magnum opus:
Homestuck Aspects, But Fucky.
Are you sick of Aspect quizzes where the answer is weirdly self-evident and you feel a terrible compulsion to “aim” for you “preferred” aspect?
Well, motherfucker, have I got the quiz for you. Every single one of these “questions” is nonsense, every single answer is absurdity, and every single person I tested it on got the right aspect at the end.*
*My sample size was three people this is a meaningless claim.
Take the quiz at your leisure, and then when you’re done and remembering the Ancient Days of Quizilla where you got to see what all the personality types were at the end after getting yours?
Head on back to this post, where I am putting all 12 answers below this cut.
Oh damn, you're a power player (even if you don't want to admit it). You're probably pretty okay at being The Mom Friend (even though you don't want to be it). You may be immortal, it's really hard to be sure. Either way, there are a lot of people out there who envy your psychological stability. The joke's on them though, you're approximately as stable as Pluto's orbit: you only look that way from a distance.
Rage
How's your blood pressure? Good? Good. With that in mind, take a deep breath. Feel the air move past your teeth, into your chest. A relentless cycle of in and out that only stops on your command, and otherwise persists. That's you. You persist, at your own command, unyielding. Good for you.
Time
TIME TO FUCK SHIT UP MORE LIKE. Whether this means "fucking up the enemy" or "fucking up your own very good plans and intentions" is hard to say. But rest assured, the shit is fucked.
Mind
My girlfriend is a mind player, so you're probably my favourite. Unfortunately, beneath the well practiced veneer of professional chill, your anxieties are not merely infinite, but one of the larger infinities available, and definitely still growing.
Hope
Hey!!! Sorry if your depression is still untreated or uncontrolled! But the good news is, you haven't died yet, and you aren't going to die any time soon, which means all those weird notions you have of what to do next (the ones that keep competing with each other for your limited brain space)? You get to do them. Literally roll the dice and pick one, we all know you're going to nail it.
Life
Everyone else's problems are everyone else's problems. You do not actually need to fix them, even though the temptation is SO REAL. I promise, no one is going to think less of you for taking some time to focus on your own shit. In fact (brace yourself) they probably won't notice at all, because being obsessed with other people's issues instead of your own makes you very bad at handling either. You're already a good person. You don't need to prove it. But you know what good people deserve? Some fucking self care.
Heart
You know what you want in life. Maybe not how to get it, exactly, but you know your own end goal, and holy SHIT I wish that were me. Hold onto that self awareness, even as you may need to let other parts of your ego go. Never forget what you want, what you truly, really want.
Blood
Friends, family, and dearest loved ones. We are gathered here today to witness the union between disparate souls, coming together to create something more than their parts. (You're the fucking officiant in this wedding scenario, so get good at the rituals of socialization quick, babe).
Doom
Okay, doomer. I'm sorry, neither you, I, nor any other Doom player deserved that. But for real though, press F for yourself and show some goddamn self-respect. Ain't anyone the fuck else going to do it. Which means it's up to you, as usual. Good thing practice has already perfected your capacity to ignore your own suffering and get to the fucking point.
Light
I cannot decide if calling you "Jace Beleren but it's real life instead of a card game" would be an insult or a compliment, which I think really neatly captures your whole deal. Your wikipedia-like breadth of skills and knowledge is commendable, but I am begging you to slow down. Science isn't going to disappear just because you took a long weekend and an extra hot bath. Life is short, but damn, it's not THAT short.
Void
Are you okay? Like, in a broad, existential sense. I understand that it is extremely tempting to throw your hands up and turn your back on the world's relentless chaos and brazen stupidity. But, it's your world too. There are parts of it worth holding. Even now, even here, there are parts worth loving, and you are one of them. I know you don't want to take that on faith. I know with neither evidence nor proofs it sounds like I'm blowing it out my ass. But you actually, really, genuinely are.
Breath
Flighty (complimentary). Intuitive (derogatory). Fun (gender). Stop knowing things about other people without being told, and instead try knowing things about yourself. Yeah, I know that fucking sucks, but unfortunately, self awareness is important! Anyway, while you're busy not knowing your truth, at least you're fun as hell. Here's a bit of self-insight for free: you hang out with your friends because you LIKE them, it's okay to just like people.
not to be gay but this new quiz is just!! really reminding me of the old upd8 culture and that makes me so happy, i love that so many people still find so much community in this like i do i missed yall..........
SmH I'm upsetti because I'm not feeling the aspect quiz and I could just ignore it but OCD is fucking me up and screaming "IT'S CANON!!!!!! YOU MUST ABIDE BY CANON RULES"
And like
I showed all the aspects the quiz had given me before (light, space, and mind) to my friends along with the one I thought I was (time) and asked which sounds most like me and four outta five answers were time.
But I'm also really not sure if I'm time or space or light or what
Just probably not mind, which I've gotten a lot because of that side point bs?????
And it's upsetting because "lmao just let the test tell u what u are" "but I'm not feeling it I don't think it's me" "BICH U HAVE ZERO CONCEPT OF YOUR PERSONALITY"
The thing that frustrates me about all alignment shit (like classpects, Hogwarts houses, everything) is that!! I can't figure it out on my own very well!!! Because I don't know who the higgity heck I AM. I have to ask people for basic personality traits I have. I really have no idea who I am an it's fuckin killing me
I just???, Want to be my own individual person but I have no idea who that is, I don't even know where to start
So yeah that's probably why this all upsets me so much
Because in the end I don't know, I can't cling to one because I can't even differentiate which I'm like and not like
I think people have been getting aspects they didn’t expect for two main reasons.
1. Like Sburb itself, it forces you to acknowledge a part of yourself you weren’t aware of. The god tier I’ve been going with is very fitting for me, but the aspect is also very accurate to me, probably due to the fact that I got the original results 3 years ago. My updated aspect is honestly more true to my current self, in ways I never would have expected. Look at the descriptions for all the aspects if you don’t feel yours fits though, see which one might feel more natural. You may be surprised how well yours fits, especially as you look at how it shows in day to day life.
2. The quiz does not take class into consideration. This is my one big pet peeve about the quiz, because class can have direct effect on your aspect; as far as we can tell, princes and bards ghost their opposite aspects, so sure, maybe you read as a Life player. But you’re a prince, so as it turns out when you factor that into it you’re actually a Prince of Doom because the destroyer classes read as their opposites at first glance. My seer friend got read as a Mind player because hey, without taking class into consideration, a lot of seers are going to be read as Mind players.
I'm so excited for your classpect quiz!! How is that coming along?
Hi Nonnie,
It's coming along steady! The Aspect Quiz is currently in the process of getting its points distributed for each question and Aspect (although, I will likely have to go back and readjust some of these scores, as some Aspects are waaaay lagging behind while others are jumping way up). The Class Quiz is currently in the works for my Class personality descriptions, with Knight, Witch, Seer, Prince, and Lord the final ones needing to be written. Once that's done, I'll also get to work on assigning point values, and then also probably have to readjust those point values.
Like I said, it's steady (and a bit slow), but it's coming along!
I was actually thinking/planning on taking August off from analyzing to focus more on the quizzes, and also on other writing works in progress (Homestuck and non-Homestuck alike).
I'm hoping to get it all done well before the end of the year, don't you worry!
Back in that Homestuck hell I loved so much. I didn't think I'd be a breath player. I even went back and changed two questions I was unsure about, but it stayed the same.
