the other day i saw someone claim that the fact that dirk "used the ar" with jake made him a bad friend because he was saying "jake wasnt worth the time" so, guys? answering machines are emotional abuse now
forgotten homestuck fact: Dirk didnt answer THE FIRST MESSAGE between Jake and the AR, immediately admitted to Jane he felt obligated to let AR run as long as possible, and then promptly went on to completely lose control of the session on every level imaginable and had all of Jake’s messages screened by the AR the entire time.
No, seriously. Even in the shower room when Dirk doesn’t answer, we see Jake’s text bubble. Dirk gets text bubbles every time he receives messages from characters during that entire section. Know who he never gets bubbles from again, fucking Jake, that’s right--and Hal even tells Jake “Dirk can’t hear you right now” just before Jake passes out after fighting the Brobot.

the cougar scene was PRETTY graphic
not really? i mean it didnt talk about cats getting ripped up or anything just dead or that scene where that one cat got carried off she was still alive before whatever her fate was after

theres this one furry dude who makes uncomfortably puppetesqe fursuits and also actual puppets, both highly mechanized and made through strangely technological means, and he appears once every twoish years, explains how to like 3d print a fursuit or puppet or like how to animate a puppets eyes and ears using arduino a motion sensor. absolutely nobody acknowledges his (very detailed) tutorials and then he vanishes again and i think thats dirk

i threw myself under the bus for mae. magpie was hurting her so much and i knew they already didnt trust me because of where i came from (long story im not ok with talking about right now) so i. took front. told them “its me, im doing this, ill leave and never come back, you dont have to hurt [mae] or the others anymore”
and i dont remember what they said but they were, so angry, they mightve grabbed me or maybe they were already grabbing mae
and the whole t ime mae was. yelling at me, too. begging at me to not, do this, that it wasnt worth it , that she didnt want me to go, and both of us knowing that everyone else , even the other leos probably, would think that the things i was making up were true
hero complex? yes. hero homicide? no. i was building mae back up after the hell she was going through, but i never, EVER hurt her. shes under my protection
all of this was dramatic on purpose, i knew magpie would fall for it, that they would be expecting a speech from me, that they would be glad for me to go without a fight, that they never expected me to fight anyway, that they would easily easily EASILY believe that i was secretly manipulative because of my origins
so. i left. i kept trying to tell magpie “dont blame [mae] for this, dont hate [mae] for this” and they kept cutting me off. so i just... left, because i wasnt allowed to say it.
but.
it. didnt even matter what i did. because mae died. and i couldt do anything about it. i didnt even know. i ... didnt even know mae died, that i failed so. epically. fuck.
even when they did manage to bring mae back, when they were out of magpie’s reach, they were scared to acknowledge the possibility that maybe i could come back too.
so... thats what happened. magpie hated me, i tried to use that to protect mae, and all that did was make the system down another protector (and magpie loved finding excuses to get us to drop our protectors) and left me stuck on t he Outside not knowing if anyone was okay or not
blueberries are probably one of my favourite foods, and i love it in teas? i have some white-blueberry tea that klassika just loves, and this blend that has blueberry in it that’s real fuckin good
blue also makes me think ocean. i’ve never been more than a few hours drive from the ocean in my entire life and the concept of living in a landlocked area brings me anxiety like uh... let me be near the sea.
