Update! We are now in the future, but in the past.

I like how Hussie worded that to be as confusing as possible.

Going back to previous topic, while I would really like some hint on the A1 ancestors, it doesn't seem likely that the story will go back to them. I mean, I guess the A1 players were kinda irrelevant to the current story, but Hussie already took a detour to introduce all of them and probably doesn't feel like talking about *another* 12 trolls.

Which is a shame, as it would make all our "captors" and "leijons" and "nitrams" pictures complete.

If Hussie never shows the A1 ancestors then perhaps it's symbolic or something? Perhaps for the likes of Karkat and Tavros, what with Troll society and the importance of ancestors, Hussie has already given "higher" versions of them in the ancestors. I mean can you GET any more badass than the Summoner? Sure Hussie could show what Tavros originally was in the A1 universe and that would be awesome, but like.. remember the first time we saw the Summoner and the Sufferer in the comic and didn't know about Meenah and gang, we were flipping out because we saw the same Taurus horns and symbol that timid stuttering Tavros had on this majestic-looking motherfucker with glorious god tier wings and a dragon at his back.

My point is, ancestors mean something in troll society that humans don't really have. The A2 kids have ancestors that are sort of like ascended versions of themselves, for the most part. While at the same time they are not them, but scratched versions of the original troll kids. Except they are dead and gone. The future is for the A2 trolls, and it's up to them what they will become, and what their "ascended selves" will be. Hussie might just leave their past selves a mystery just to reinforce that point.

Okay guys! It's time to analyze Roxy's terrible wizard fanfic in how it relates back to the main plot of Homestuck.

meta and a little masturbatory, but it was an easier read than complacency of the learned. I actually kinda want to read more.

Well, it looks like Hussie managed to get that wizard camp story he had in mind a long time ago into the story. This is should be interesting to say the least. Especially since this little adventure has been foreshadowed since Rose's introduction.

So, the question I have is... is Roxy doing multiple edits while lucid/drunk, or is the STORY changing based on what she's writing in it. :V

Not!Quidditch is just silly and dumb as actual Quidditch.

Wrong, Roxy. ALWAYS write while drunk.

I'd honestly be kinda excited to see what Roxy could put together if she actually tried. Her style is really meta.

Ooh! I do like that theory. I mean, we still know what the human players grew up to be, but those cases were vastly different worlds. Beforus was a sorta-utopia (misogyny and blood caste system aside) where the A2 trolls could've filled most of their dreams.

update! Roxy is most likely in a dream bubble but Calliope's silence is unnerving.
