is there any chance of homestuck LINE stickers?

i actually sketched a few as kind of a joke, but then the team was like "wow you should really do these" but they're not actually very good. i wanted to try cleaning them up a bit, but then other things sort of took priority. here are some of the sketches.

roxy and dirk not-couples cosplaying kishibe and quanxi

#who cares what j & j are doing in this scenario its not like hussie cared about resolving anything about them #THERE. FUNNIER POST MANIFESTED

dirkjake couples cosplay qua??????????nxi & rezzzzzzzzeze (misspelled bc like. i'm NOT contaminating the chain sawed manhattan's tag with homestuck shit)

#jane can be like. idk. falling. and roxy gets the old man #i hate censoring a post like this its ugly as fuck and ruins the joke but Oh Well the crimes i commit to avoid putting cringe on ppls dash #also like jake could wear someone else i for-the-record do NOT ship quan and rez really reze's age is too not-stated #but like. the other option that jumped to mind was like. all four fiends at once???? #COULD work i guess but its a harder mental image to conjur and i bet jake would really like Rzee

just saw someone call jane/calliope/roxy a crackship ??>#?@%????

#lsDFKHLSKJDKSLJDHG #HOLY SHIT #also love the citations good good goodgoodgood #one can argue its... indirect. but it feels so fucking natural for that character just ACK <-having positive emotions about hs for once #ADDENDUM: AND HOLD ON A MINUTE??? ROXYJANECALLIE AS CRACK?!?!? #I DID *NOT* SIT THROUGH FIVE FUCKIN YEARS OF ACT 6 TO REALIZE (WITH PLENTY OF FELLOW REALIZERS) THE GORDIAN KNOT SEVERER OF SHIPPING WOES #THERE WAS TONS OF US. TONS! #ok i actually can't remember if i *at the time* shipped the 3 together. it feels like i did? but then i got fucking wierd about that kinda #thing and avoided it for a (stupid) while so idk #its. so fucking postcanonpilled to think of it as *crack* even like i guess jane and callie didn't end up interacting... TOO much with each #other. but. jane and roxy???? already great together??? add their mutual friend and sufferer of social malnutrition??????? its math!!!!! #(admittedly roxy and jane together NOW in 2023 feels a little too fluffy for my tastes but thats. not intrinsic. like back in ye olden days #it kinda felt uwu cute girls pillow fights cake lol! but like good god the anxieties about social relationships duo. like thats all the alp #alpha kids - and like YEAH ITS ALL THE ALPHA KIDS. MAKING THEM BORING IS A CHOICE NOT A FEATURE LMAO)

Family guy death pose Vriska….?

is this my legacy?

[crockersbian]

honestly homestuck HAD so many kinda dogshit relationships in it that i don't really blame people for seeing the mutually-assured destruction going on with Vriska and Terezi and jumping to conclusions but like. dude they were only relationshipping before the cycle of violence began or after it was finished canonicity-wise.

#also for the record calling it toxic isn't necessarily the same as calling it abusive #toxic yuri can be (generally IS esp. for the retconners) applicable there. its toxic! admittedly less toxic to each other and more toxic #to everyone else. but toxic works! #that SAID i'm far more bias to interpretations where they'. aren't. that. #theres arguably more narrative merit in having them be mutually enabling the universe to death but i quite like having them reconciling be #character growth thing #(hence my preference to GO!vrisrezi) #(not that their relationship would or should be struggle-free peaches and sunshine but like) #(MAYBE WE COULD HAVE EXPLORED THEIR DYNAMICS AND GROWTH AND DEGROWTH AND CHANGE IF WE EVER FUCKING SAW THEM AGAIN)

#harlivy is champion of 'sapphic relationships made to be palatable and attractive to straight men' #vrisrezi isn't even that far behind it in that regard they aren't exactly penis jousting t4t stone butches but they ARE still behind it #(admittedly because of homestucks art style plus they're like 7)

[crockersbian]

vrisrezi isn't fucking abusive and people who say it is probably jump to callouts every time they lose a friend

#'but she blinds/explodes her!!!' these actions were not done out of a desire to control the other person you nincompoop #they DEFINITELY weren't done out of a desire to stay together #'but they hated each other afterwards!' THEY WERE LITERALLY ENEMIES WHO MAIMED EACH OTHER AFTER THEIR FRIENDSHIP DISINTEGRATED #& THEIR DYNAMIC EVEN AT ITS *WORST* IS STILL THE MOST STRAIGHTFORWARD AND NON-MANIPULATIVE EITHER CHARACTER HAS #if anything they're. remarkably enabling when allied #the whole point of their arcs in relation to one another is reconciliation its- #it lets vriska off the hook a bit too easily in the retcon timeline but that isn't fucking abusive thats not what the word means AAA #you could say that vriska left terezi permanently maimed and as the higher caste bears responsibility for that? i guess??? #but given they didn't really CONTINUE that shit until they got meteorstuck despite having pleanty of opportunity but like #terezi literally took that L and turned it into a W. that power dynamic very rapidly ceases to exist #fellas is it abusive for a relationship to both have a roughly equal amount of power 'over' the other member and for them to have gotten #together out of a long-standing emotional attatchment that while corrupted by Society is altogether roo #rooted in positive affection? and for them to literally not hurt each other at all once they come to that conclusion??? #either verbally or physically???

> looking for homestuck analysis posts > ask the homestuck bloggers if their posts are decoding or interpretation > they dont understand > pull out illustrated diagram explaining what is decoding and what is interpreting > they laugh and say "it's good meta, ma'am" > look inside > it's decoding

#YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH

roxy must be sooooooo jealous that dirk can shoot lightning out his hands wizard style

[crockersbian]

the retcon isn't inherently bad but people whose analysis of it hinges on vriska getting a "bad" ending pre-retcon, or her death being somehow immoral or wrong on terezi's part, should be locked in the torture dimension for a year with no food or drink

#tough shit on your guilt copgirl stabbing your girl best friend was the best thing you ever did!! #i don't even disagree with retconning that death! its a significant enough change to justify the entire 'retcon' mechanic in the first plac #but CHRIST when this compassion can only be meted out to THIS SPECIFIC CHARACTER???? #...not even saying you gotta bring back anyone else! it seems like an obvious and stupid waste to NOT but like you dont HAVE to! #not everything in a story should be good or just! but then people go and play the moral/spiritual 'trying to overcome their tragedy'bullshi #and. i guess the idea is that the others could be sprites #but in every sense of the term being a sprite is NOT considered a narrative rebirth in any meaninful capacity #if you aren't a x2 its basically just a different form of dreambubble where you get to be around in less specific circumstances
