No, I have yet to get with my collaborator and write the mission for the Fic: "The DaveKITTYkat"
His Tyranny holding a bucket will fluster my poor Alternian agent though. I can't WAIT to write it.
I tabbed over to Mary Sue Facepalm and noticed they concrit'd a Homestuck fantroll.

It's always either Eridan, Dave, Karkat, Sollux, Gamzee, or (on occasion) John. It's a bit sad that you can nearly always guess to within six characters.
The concrit was great, though. And those pictures were awesome. I have to admit, I did like the way the troll looked, Aradia-horns notwithstanding. And she gets happy points for having a blood color that, y'know, actually exists.
I am a ridiculous Homestuck, and would love to help. Email me directly if I can do something.
I want to help, storms, I want to read this thread, so, so much, but I'm only on the Second Intermission and Spoilers=Do Not Want.

Yeah, spoilers are bad. You can read this thread, as there are no particular spoilers from after the Second Intermission. It's mostly just a lot of discussion about minis and eggs.
If you should finish soon, you can still help. I'll always accept new betas. But don't hurry too much! It rather ruins it.
Don't die, or else.
And thank you muchly! As for minis, I'm vaguely in support of mini-buckets, for the hilarity factor.

Is that like a windy thing?

Probably not as useful as a fire extinguisher, though.

There was a brief discussion some weeks ago on the minis for Homestuck. Another person was writing a Homestuck mission and was unsure of whether minis had yet been established. We didn't decide on anything there, though great approval was given to the idea of mini-buckets. However, I didn't want a particularly large number of pseudo-sentient buckets running amuck in the OFU, so I what I have written in here are mini-His-Honorable-Tyrannies, or mini-Tyrannies, that come holding a bucket. If the mission featuring that is posted before the OFU and has something else, I'll gladly change it. (Though I still don't want too many buckets lying around. We know there will be far too many already, and the staff will be traumatized enough.)

???
Is that actually the name of the story?
I did rather like the idea of buckets, but I also wanted to use one of the innumerable Homestuck monsters.

Take bleeprin with you.
And I am almost certain it is a troll fic.
The minis for Avatar show up as different things depending on what spawned them, but they transform into lemurs for the OFU.
Would it work to have something like that happen for your OFU?
If an issue comes up, I'll definitely think up something like that. Thanks!
I for one would go with Mini-Lusi, given that they're really the closest thing to mundane animals Homestuck has. Either the lusus of the most closely-related (i.e. by class and aspect, by personality, by color, whatever) troll, or just at random.
You actually really don't want a mundane animal - you'll recall the original minis were mini Balrogs, followed by the Mini Aragogs and so on. Personally, I'd go with Horrorterrors.
I always got the impression that minis were based on some monster in the canon, if there was a monster, and the most significant animal if there was not. I mean, we've got mini-Balrogs, to start with, mini-Aragogs, and so on and so forth.
Yeah, there are a lot of things. I discarded several ideas, including mini-horrorterros. That was my favorite for a while. There are definitely a lot of things.
I didn't think so. That's why I shied away from horrorterrors and Gl'bgolyb.
Maybe if they get something so mangled you can't actually tell what was intended, then you get a mini-Geromy? I dunno.
I've got nothing but time at the moment and am quite familiar with Homestuck. If you're interested, message my DA account (same name) or just bother me here.
I don't know Homestruck at all and have attempted many times to actually read it. I could be a pair of eyes for how friendly it is to people who don't read the comic.
I just don't want to put the link up in public just yet.
I'm on gmail. Name is zdimensia.
But actually, that sounds like it would be quite helpful, especially since there are people who will read an OFU whether they've read the source material or not.
And Homestuck is really hard to start, but if you'd like to you could try Let's Read Homestuck. It's a reading on YouTube with the pictures displayed as they read. It's pretty awesome.
...but it's lovely-wonderful. I'm watching it, despite, you know, actually being in the process of reading the blasted thing. Jade's voice is perfect, and WV's is rather unexpected, but somehow fits.
