Some more designs for a lot of the other characters in @ryojiventure’s college au, I wanted to have visual designs of their outfits.

This was my first time drawing a lot of these characters so I hope I did them well!

Regarding GiovanH’s second article, in which he claims the HICU is a fake and that the FRAF are under Hussie’s thumb, two of FRAF’s staff have put forward statements disputing that.

they did pick and choose from the things I said to twist it into fitting into their narrative, even if there wasn't much to twist. Some notable points that I did explicitly clarify but they excluded are that the list of works are not run by Andrew for approval, and we don't consult the HICU on the list out of any kind of requirement or social pressure. We were literally not ever even asked to, we asked for their input because we value their input. Additionally, he was very clearly trying to lead our conversation into anti-HICU sentiment and was (mid-conversation) trying to spin things I was saying towards being anti-HICU. He very clearly had a goal in our conversation and new what he wanted to get out of it, and wasn't particularly interested in anything that might conflict with it.

in the second article, the one titled "the homestuck union is not real", there's a bit where gio asserts that austin stepped down from vast error not long after getting the homestuck license. this is true, technically. austin did stop working on vast error to work on disenfranchised. disenfranchised fucking rules, and austin's been working on vast error for close to 15 years, and in doing so is beholden to decisions made as far back as when they were 13 years old. that's over twice as long as homestuck ran on mspa. i would get tired too. this is a normal thing to feel.

but since the case that needs to be made is "FRAF is a bad idea because they're putting control of their projects under HICU control", something untrue, the facts of the matter are ignored. "austin was told to step down by hussie" would be easily disprovable, because it's horseshit. it's seeing what you want to see, instead of what is actually there. because it's actually a piece for their actual hobbyhorse, "someone was taken off of a project that later wound up under the FRAF label", all the important parts can be abstracted away. the truth itself becomes a malleable thing that can be manipulated through omission and reframing.
