Today I’m reading.

06/29/10- "And way back again...” (/homestuck/2121) to 06/30/10 - "======>” (/homestuck/2131)"

Select this thingy to read my commentary

Last time we met Travos. He’s odd, especially for a troll. He’s not afraid to show vulnerability and isn't ashamed of his interest. At least not to the audience. Though this isn't why I dislike the character, these are positive traits. The reasons I don't like will come later. Also that creepy expression on his face.

During his zoning out flash forward thing Travos has gotten a few messages. Firstly arachnidsGrip [AG]. This one is new, the troll under Scorpio. They are mean. They inform Travos he is on the red team while she is on Blue. She points out his team has “blind girls” and points out his disability insinuating team blue is for disabled people. Travos doesn't want to talk to her but also doesn't seem to be doing much about it. He mentions he’s given a name to his self esteem, on the advice of grimAuxiliatrix [GA]. He named it Rufio a character from the Peter Pan based movie “Hook” (1991). This gets him ruthlessly insulted by AG for having imaginary friends. She instructs him to stop listening to GA and she rambles on like a dang coke fiend for a bit before leaving.

Polar opposite to this encounter Travos then chats with Gamzee. Gamzee apologized for zoning out mid conversation even though they had not actually started the conversation yet. Gamzee is also on the red team and is cool with Travos. He’s actually somewhat nurturing towards Travos being more confident. They enjoy some slam poetry and discuss the game. The chain for the red team is that Karkat will log in from Terezi. Gamzee will then log in from Karkat, and then Tarvos from Gamzee. Then supposedly 4 others. We know karkat is in already but Terezi is off doing something in her forest. Then after faygo they have the worst rap off in all of paradox space. Fortunately, it doesn't actually show us any of it. I’ll be thankful for that small mercy.

Terezi is doing a thing in the forest. Which is to say she is in a forest which is burning all around her. In front of her is a giant scale. On one end is an egg, her lusus that she has never met. On the other scale is a giant skull. The skull is over an ominous button. We can guess if the egg hatches then the skull will depress the button. Terezi also mentioned that the day she meets her lusus the world would end. The reason she hasn't met her lusus yet is because it had not hatched yet.

Terezi explains that there is a dragon in the egg. The dragon is blind until it reaches maturity so it was able to psychically connect to Terezi and teach her how to survive without sight. She was able to access her dream self and vaguely see the world around it. To us is familiar, as is her outfit. She was seeing Prospit.

The fire from the forest was caused by falling meteors. This is much like what Rose experienced before entering the medium. The heat of these fires hatched the young dragon causing the doomsday button to activate. The dragon is immediately struck by a falling meteor and killed. We are told this one will be prototyped into a sprite. The doomsday device counts down from 6:12.


Till tomorrow, maybe don't keep doomsday buttons under heavy scales? also keep riding the pumpkin tide.

100 of these now, is this community popular yet?
