You mean like these? Because if so, yeah, that was a retcon. It's going to be mildly disappointing for me when I finally get around to rereading Homestuck from the beginning when I see those in the Flash animations. One of those was from [S] Wake, dang it! Why did [S] Wake need to be screwed around with? It was so great!
Oh, right, the pun. Let's see, according to social custom, I should insert the Sad Trombone here. There we go.
Though, to be fair, I can see why you'd be asking me for my space secrets. I can hold far more words per post than just that measly 840 that you had when you rain out of room! I fit 1,189 in my "I like my new mythological role" post on this very thread!(Microsoft Word counted the words, not me. I don't have that kind of patience.) However, I have no idea how I do it, as much as I would like to educate an heir for my twin fields of Self-Indulgence/Self-Deprecation and Writing Just So Many Words, Sweet Grob, Who Is Even Going To Read All Of These Words. Knowing how these things go, you will probably need to go on a several-chapter-long journey of self-discovery. I've got a few extra robots to spare if you need a wisecracking sidekick. I'll just have to put their vocal emitters back in.
Oh, no, the last one is probably going to be permanently down, if you mean whether there will be any more chapters of Road Trip. That was another one that was plotted and designed by me, and I've lost my notes and he's lost interest. It's a shame, too, because during the events that I remember from it alone, Tavros gets stuck in the middle of a trash island on a river, Feferi has a chance to drive the bus and sends it careening off of a bridge to avoid hitting a squirrel, and Eridan finds out that Terezi still keeps his gallbladder in a preservative tank back at her respiteblock. He had to have it surgically removed in a past story I wrote when I decided that the trolls should play havoc in a hospital. Terezi and Eridan's relationship was weird, as I've established.
Hey, then they're an even better set of powers, since they can facilitate personal growth! Just like my powers would, I suppose. I'd need to constantly fight off the urge to use my newfound near-omnipresence to go on some sort of crazy power trip. Never mind that any attempts that I would have to go on said power trip would be flawed to the point that they collapse in on themselves, because I am just the worst at leaving loose ends everywhere. Double personal growth!
I can do better than that in terms of Betty Crocker references. For a "make a commercial about a product" project in high school, two friends and I made a commercial about a Crockercorp product that was intended to help the character I played with... general tasks that were never elaborated on in any detail in the commercial itself, only to attack any humans nearby and turn them into drones. It was full of deliberate bad acting(and no costumes of any sort, and corny narration), and as a result is so embarrassing that I'm not going to post the link to it here. You can just imagine it. Unfortunately, I never got to add in the tagline: "Buy one now! Buy several now!" Pointlessly generic, check. Overwrought, check. Sounds like it was made at the last possible second, check. Commercial gold.
I cried when Kanaya died the first time. Not a lot, but I was sad all day. This is back before we had the ghosts and rainbow drinkers and B2 sprites and the half-dozen other ways to bring people back, so it looked like she was gone forever.
Hey, Vriska's a main character! Even if she doesn't end up striking any decisive final blows like she wanted to at the start of her arc, she's definitely going to do something significant in the last stretch of the story. She wouldn't let herself not be important.
No, you're fine to not worry. Jade is almost certainly going to be around in some form or another later. They had to cure her of her reality-warping rampage syndrome somehow, and two hundred tons of tower makes for a pretty good suppressant. As we've seen, not only did it cure her grimbark craziness, she's already found Calliope in the afterlife, and something's got to come of that.
We saw a dead alt-Feferi! Does that count as coming back? Wow, all of these points are in just the wrongest of orders. This is what happens when I reply to two posts at once.
Let's see here... according to the MSPA wiki's character list, it looks like, if we assume Wayward Vagabond was actually dead when alt-Feferi revived him and not just mostly dead, the only characters with any standing in the plot to have never died were Spades Slick, Terezi(her dream self died, but that doesn't really count as much), and the Peregrine Mendicant. There were some robots and other related inorganic entities there as well, but I excluded them for the sake of convenience, since they can usually be rebuilt or transferred into a new chassis after their destruction.
Drat, everything being out of order means there's no best opportunity to end this post. I'll just close this out with a link to Car Cat. Beep beep, meow!
