two young hosts @two-excellent-hosts - Tumblr Blog

So just how did this all start? Like were you guys raised by your original guardians for a bit then Scratch came in and took you guys? Or did they wait till you could choose for yourself? If you don't mind explaining your beginning I'd love to know.

ooc: I hope you’re still around to see this answer, sorry it took so long.

They were taken from their respective meteors just about immediately after they landed, before they could be picked up by those meant to be their guardians. (Who, because of crockercorp kids au, may not even be still alive then or ‘now’) Scratch raised them and trained them until he decided they were old enough to make the decision. He showed them what reality they came from, and allowed them to choose, and he wasn’t disappointed. Of course, he knew what they would pick, even if there wasn’t nothing left for them in the reality they came from, he knew.

There’s more information about the two compiled here. Though you’ll have to click ‘source’ at the bottom of the posts rather than the readmores themselves, because Mouse has changed their url a few times.

how are john and jade doing? do you know who they are?

ooc: The timeline that these two are from is from the same one as the crockercorp kids. Rose and Dave know the two exist, but neither of the two have ever spoken to one another. Rose never will admit that she spies on them from time to time (if caught she says it’s pure curiosity and their alternate timeline supposed friendship might be useful in the future so it’s good to know something about them). When the two are mentioned to Dave, he tends to huff and say something about how they must be all meant to serve Lord English in the end.

Have any of the Felt members challenged either one of you to a one-on-one duel?

OOC:

Dave’s done a few, usually for training purposes when he can steal a few minutes for himself between lessons to work on sword fighting so that he can keep him and his sister safe in the future if anything comes to pass since he doesn’t really trust the path they’re on.

Rose mostly only fights with the young Handmaid, though will sometimes pick a fight with Stitch. She’s learnt to flashstep from some fights with Itchy, a move that Dave has been trying to pick up but hasn’t managed just yet.

Are you two and Doc Scratch the only ones here?

ooc: Should’ve answered this one sooner huh? Sorry about that. Anyway no, there’s also the rest of the Felt and the Handmaid there.

What do you think your life would be like if you weren't under Scratch's excellent care?

ooc: They don’t really know, since it’s not like they get out much. However hen they agreed to continue living with him and being trained to be hosts, he showed them what reality they came from. They saw that the world moved on without them there, that there wasn’t a place for their existence, the two they were meant to make friends with wouldn’t be reachable, and decided that remaining with Scratch was for the best. That’s what Rose decided anyway, and Dave decided to stay as well to try and keep her out of trouble because he’s pretty sure she doesn’t know what she was getting into. She didn’t, but won’t admit that she regrets the choice. Why say so, when there’s no way to change it?

1) Do you have any pictures of Condesce-raised Jade and John? 2) Do you guys have any neat tricks with your powers?

ooc: They have no pictures, they just know the others exist. Sometimes though, Rose will use her powers of being an envoy to the horrorterrors and a magic ball and request to see glimpses of the two’s lives. Sometimes it’s seeing them sleeping, or listening to their ‘mom’ or doing some rule breaking (that’s usually Jade). Setting up a prank, or a trap.

She tells Dave about some of the visions, but she doesn’t do that very often since he reminds her not to get attached to them. She never goes asking for visions when he’s around. I hope that gives two with one stone.

Who do you like more? The Felt or The Handmaid?

D: You’re wanting us to compare how much we like one person to a group of 15? I don’t know man, seems pretty weighed.

OOC: They get along pretty well with the Handmaid, Dave moreso than Rose because he’s more willing to stretch (and break) the rules than she is to try and get outside or find just what the limits are. But she and Rose spar together a lot when no one else is aware (or Scratch doesn’t bother to stop them since he knows it’ll happen anyway) to keep one another sharp. Loser has to clean the mess and usually gets the worse part of the reprimanding later. Sometimes the spars are for practice, sometimes it’s because of a well (or depending how you look at it, poorly) timed snark.

Anyone you particularly like among the Felt? Dislike?

OOC:

Rose gets along best with Die, Stitch (or does until she starts pestering him about making clothes that aren’t green when he’s trying to fix that overcoat), and Quarters. She’s okay with Clover, and isn’t terribly fond of Itchy because he’s so often causing a distraction. Unless the two of them need a distraction, in which case it’s him or Biscuits and Eggs.

Dave gets along best with Clover, Fin, and Matchsticks. He generally gets along well with most of the Felt really, since he’s able to very easily understand all the ridiculous time stuff they get up to.

Also he gets along with Snowman better than Rose does, for which she calls him a Mama’s boy and he calls her desperate for attention. Snow will never let Rose try a oneupmanship contest with her.

Rose kinda dislikes Ms Paint (who is not really part of the Felt I know) and finds her too doting esp compared to Snow who yeah she’s trying pretty hard to get the attention of.

Do guys think you are the best hosts ever?

R: I can confidently say that while we’re still in training we’re better than anyone else could ever be. We have an excellent teacher.

OOC: First of all, I want to apologize to all of you. I rebooted this blog and then never really continued with it like I planned to.

Secondly, I've more or less moved of from the fandom and this blog won't be continuing. I don't really have a drive to do this anymore. I'm going to answer the remaining questions either ic or with an occ answer if I can't think of a way to phrase it well. There won't be art with it, because I just don't feel like putting the time to it anymore. I'm sorry to those that I got excited for this and let down.

If anyone would want to take over then let me know, but otherwise this blog will be going dormant. I won't be posting here anymore after I clear the remaining questions. If there's anything you want my headcanon for these two on, ask now (for the remainder of the week, till friday), or forever hold your peace.

we can go outside if thats what you mean when we got the free time for it cant leave the grounds though... not yet this is about as far as we get to go without shit what would rose call it complications

#dave strider #scratch au #that's a wall if you can't tell

Due to certain constraints we've lost time-

rose.

and have let your queries go to waste. As is we'd like to start from scratch-

rose i swear to english.

We formally apologise for leaving you all waiting, and are opening our doors to you once more. I hope you'll say we-

ROSE.

to the occasion.

god dammit.

OOC: So basically after a long period of me not knowing what to do with this, this askblog is getting a reboot! New look, better style, etc. Previously answered questions are staying up, but you can ask them again for better responses. I stopped updating because of various reasons but I plan to keep active this time so long as I have questions to reply to so hit em up!

#homestuck #dave strider #rose lalonde #Scratch Kids #dersecest #somewhat a little maybe

Aren't you two scared of Lord English? Why would you CHOOSE to be his servants, it doesn't seem like a very enjoyable position...(you're doing an excellent job btw huehueheu)

Rose: Fearful? Of a being we have spent our whole lives preparing to serve for the rest of said life? Whatever would have given you that impression? I will admit that while it is not the most…

Dave: Reasonable? Safe? Forgiving?

Rose: While there is no margin for error in the position we have chosen to be placed in, being granted immortality at the price of training to follow cruel orders for an even crueler being, it beats not existing. What would we have been on earth anyway? An extra pair of statistics to the Crocker empire?

Dave: Isn’t that the same spiel you gave me when Scratch offered us this gig in the first place?

A small OOC announcement, which I should have made a while ago.

I realize it's been a month since my last answer here and I do have a few in my inbox that I want to get to currently (more are always welcome), however as you can see through the previous posts my art style has been fluctuating a great deal and I've had trouble settling on a look and actually liking the results of it. Nothing actually looks like something I want to have on the internet, so on so forth.

In layman's terms, I'm having a really bad art block. I will do my best to get through it and put art up here again but until then most answers will be answered with only text.
