FUCKING hate cronus
Homestuck posting, tw abusive behavior, casteism
On that note- I was writing about Kankri’s dynamic with cooler castes in that post and was thinking about how Kankri sort of tries to be a peace keeper. He pretty much said Mituna calling Meenah a Wader is sort of meh in the grand scheme of things, because she’s of course privileged but it’s really hostile to do so and pisses people off so maybe don’t. And than I thought of his interaction with Cronus
So Cronus is Casteist. That’s not up for debate
MITUNA: 1M 50RRY CRONUS: i said shut up. do you havwe any idea vwhat a man of my class vwould do if a mustard blood like you spoke to me this vway on alternia?
This is his response to Mituna ‘ruining’ his chances with Meenah. He pretty openly said if he wasn’t dead and it was socially acceptable he’d kill him over this non issue. That phrase also makes sense as an in universe slur or at least derogatory term to refer to someone’s blood type (compare to the more neutral: gold, ochre, or yellow)
Kankri is off-spectrum. It’s possible/probable that he’s aware that any second Cronus could turn on him and he’d be in a deeply similar position to Mituna. But okay, that’s jumping to a lot of conclusions about their dynamic… Until you read these scenes back to back.
CRONUS: HEY! i thought i told you to stay put. MITUNA: W7HF7F? CRONUS: i told you to stay here in exactly this spot. MITUNA: 1 D1 #D CRONUS: vwell, she vwas gone. SOMEONE must havwe frightened her avway. CRONUS: you must havwe spaced out and vwandered into vwiewv briefly. she probably got one look at you and couldnt split fast enough.
MITUNA: N0 1 S7H4Y3D H3R3 L1K3 Y0U 7H41D CRONUS: vwonderful. this is just exactly vwhat i needed, vwhat vwith all my frayed emotions lately. thanks a lot, "buddy." MITUNA: 1M 50RRY CRONUS: no youre not. youre lying.
CRONUS: meenah vwait… awv man. just like that, shes out of my life again. you had to go and fuck it up for me, didnt you? some "friends" i havwe. KANKRI: Listen, I was d9ing y9u a fav9r. Y9u d9n't need t9 6e dating any9ne wh9 can't appreciate y9u f9r wh9 y9u really are,
So Mituna actually argues with him, stands up for himself. Fights back against what he’s saying and it pisses Cronus off and he turns. This is not me blaming Mituna for him turning by the by. Cronus was already an abusive shit lord. Kankri’a move is to appeal to his ego though. I think Kankri does sincerely believe this is true- most of his dialogue suggest that. But I think another, quieter part recognizes that Cronus is dangerous and it’s best to stay on his good side. (there’s an added layer to this if he’s been culled obviously. Because it’s easy to say he’s not socially aware enough to do that sort of thing… But if he was culled than that little fawn part of him KNOWS the correct response.)
Homestuck tierlist except it’s only the characters considered problematic (and also i’m basic as shit)
(BTW!! this does NOT include Homestuck2)
cronus was undeniably the worst person in homestuck, lord english is a gentleman and a fucking scholar compare to cr*nus amp*ra
sources: go read homestuck
(Un)holy trinity of homestuck characters i would punch if i could
(Not pictured: Bro and Mindfang, I just didn’t know a word that would fit for 5 characters)
can yall believe that i might hate cronus more than itsuki+eichi. he Sucks. i hate him. like are they all bad? yes. but cronus is honestly so bad that if i had to kill one of them it would be cronus in a goddamned h e a r t b e a t
openbound but every time cronus says some Nastyass Shit, take a shot
FYI, I kinda hate Cronus, can't stand the jackass and his nice guy schtick that waterfalls apart as soon as fins don't go his way
