Guardian swap au for 4/13 ^ ^

wanted 2 try my hand at strilonde kid-swap

went a lil bit into scene/goth stuff (when i was a kid in 2009 i wanted to be scene soooo bad but i was 8 lol)

based off of this post by weirdmageddon + some tags by basilpaste

anyway i need you to understand that rose raised by bro would be 100x worse

dave constantly blocks and unblocks her when she's harrassing him. theyre best friends. dave fucking hates her. he's attached to her. rose wants to break him. do you see my vision

some dave lalonde ideas lol...idk if i like the hair curl or not...something about it here is too busy in the design without much counterbalance? too "feminine"...? i mean granted being raised by mom would make dave be more in touch with his inborn softer side. not that he'd be completely effeminate though, he's just more natural in presentation instead of trying to be hardass macho like bro but the design should still communicate "masc"

i noticed a big thing about dave lalonde is naturality, to his design, to his relationship with earnestness and post-irony (that wraps back around to genuine sentiment) and that being his natural type of humor and communication (like roxy herself), instead of artificially inflating the irony layers with bro

i LOVE the idea of him unlocking the roxy curl with conditioner and in my head it would look EXACTLY like dave’s hair in lobster’s art but im kind of on the fence about the execution just from an appealing/balanced character design perspective... hmm.

edit: i changed the swirl in the sprite edits so that it's less "dense" -- taking it from mom's sprite instead of roxy's, and it looks a whole lot better. it also sort of looks like a bass clef which is fitting for dave's music interest lol

regardless heres the ride edits without.

let me know what you think

kidswaps that i'm making. dave plays the sims models them after his friends and mother and psychoanalyzes them and rose would have listened to 100 gecs if 100 gecs existed in 2009. thank you

#they are a rogue of time and prince of light respectively #technically rose's sprite is the equivalent of dave's scratched shirt sprite i just put it here because she looks cooler here #both of them have deep and intense Issues dave is a typical spoiled rich kid but also has attention issues and rose is intensely neurotic #dave's symbol is meant to be the side of a headphone but i couldn't really figure out how to do it and the last thing i tried looked vaguel #phallic which is kind of relevant but not exactly what i want. #i've made june harley but i'm not super happy with her so i'll probably post her with jade egbert. after making edits. if i get around to t #that #dave #rose #dave lalonde #rose strider #art tag #kidswap #rose lalonde #dave strider #rose is transfem by the way. by assignment from my friend. don't worry about it ❤

grandpa harley thinks he's going to be raising a girl so he stockpiles a bunch of lady clothes for the lass to grow up with (programmed to be fully customizable, of course) and then J boy ("john") shows up on his island and he's all like "oh fiddlesticks" "well whatever i'll just get the lad some pants the next time i head out. the boy will just have to make do until then. and its not like he'll remember wearing this sort of stuff at such a young age." and then grandpa fucking dies assigned girl at oopsie HARL: no see.., plenty of guys wear skirts! like the scots, okay??? DAVE: dude those are kilts DAVE: ive seen your selfies DAVE: you own exactly zero kilts HARL: no,,, look!! hold on !! DAVE: plus your old man was english anyways DAVE: same island two different sets of guys HARL: noooo come on!! harls eventually alchemizes some pants when sburb starts up and they r like "oh man this does nothing for me, actually." "in fact... this sucks!!" they eventually get all starry eyed and r like "omggg grandpa knew... he knew i was trans gener..." and its like haha nope kid you just got dropped into a stupid lucky situation

some thoughts on dave lalonde

so note this isn’t a kidswap au, just a strilonde guardian swap au; a plausible au wherein dave’s meteor(s) are set to land in upstate new york and rose’s in houston tx where they are discovered by mom lalonde and bro strider respectively. so it’s not even really an “alternative universe” so much as “alternative circumstance” because that’s literally all that changes

their interests aren’t swapped; their interests are a natural result of a mix of what they were always predisposed towards (we can look at their post-scratch versions for constants) combined with their living environment. rose strider is still gothy and writes, knits, and has an interest in the zoologically dubious. perhaps rose might handcraft some delirious puppets for her brother-slash-ectofather’s enterprise as a “gift” in one-upmanship. probably has good rapport with the crows that fly into her ironic knockoff disney-princess themed bedroom (see the post i linked above) and get them to fuck with bro passively in exchange for peanuts. she also keeps all the things the crows gift her, pickpocketed shiny things and whatnot

dave lalonde is still the knight of time, still makes sbahj, likes photography, still loves cooking up unbelievably ill jams, still into post-ironic expression, however he’s not irony-poisoned by bro so he’s more comfortable being genuine. his interest in dead things and paleontology comes more to a forefront because of mom’s predilection towards science and genuine encouragement from her. after all she’s made many a mutant kitten herself

i feel like since dave fell to earth with maplehoof, crushing the pony instantly on impact, instead of using its hide to make a bib like a fucking weirdo, mom would paradox clone maplehoof. so dave has a pet pony with a ribbon and little pink heart on it. a knight needs a loyal steed. and hes been attached to maplehoof since his literal first few minutes of existing. so maplehoof wouldnt be bought anywhere, it would originate from itself

i mean he’s seen with the pony at his side in the post-scratch universe so…..

would make sense if the pony mom gifted to rose in canon was more of an involved thing with dave in this circumstance

the only issue is maplehoof cant become his sprite, otherwise that would break the timeloop (they need to come unaltered to earth with dave on the meteor in the first place during the reckoning). also [S] Ride with dave and the scarf would absolutely be a thing at some point

i was thinking maybe instead of a crow, since they aren’t as “everywhere” in upstate new york as they are in that high rise in texas, dave has something more prehistoric put into a sprite. like a parave theropod. can you imagine parave davesprite. maybe an archaeopteryx or something

i guess mom would indulge in a living museum/zoo for “domesticated” ancient organisms all jurassic parked like a weird ongoing experiment but the ectobiology wouldnt be perfect especially because the dna wouldnt be able to be fully read from fossils and specimens. i feel like jurassic park should be dave lalonde’s sort of in-universe media reference the way con air was with john and putting the bunny back in the box. like his friends would just rip on him for living out jurassic park in an imperfect domestic way

and he accidentally kills it through some fetch modus shenanigans. dave still has the bladekind strife specibus but not because he does rooftop battles but because swords are unironically cool, and flings it out the window by accident and it strikes one of the parave theropods in the enclosed zoo below outside his window and dave feels kinda bad

when jade sees it as his server player shes like “oh nooooo :(“ and dave is like “oh god no dont put that in the seizure kernel while i take a piss in one of the many fancy bathrooms this household has”

#homestuck #strilonde guardian swap #dave lalonde #rose strider #hs #homestuck meta #however i dont know what dave(sprite) would have prototyped his sprite with before going back #because lil cal isnt there #but also john and jade would be dead so hed have to go back anyway #so i guess it doesnt really matter what doomed dave prototypes

hi dogwaffles-sodasauce fans my kidswap ideas (beta kids)

jade egbert: the witch of breath she lives with her pa in washington. a mysterious dog, nicknamed “bec,” hangs out around her house sometimes, but hes more of a nuisance than anything. she loves experiment in her pa's kitchen, much to his dismay. she makes up for my by helping him with the gardening! she is not a fan of pranks, despite the joke shop her pa runs. she knows of her pa's role as only a businessman since she never showed interest in joining the ranks of pranks. her planet is the land of glow and smog (logas)

rose strider: the seer of time she lives with her brother in texas. she spends most of her time writing in her room, only occasionally making comics. she enjoys a good strife with her bro, but she prefers to duel wield small knives instead of using the katanas he uses. she knows that her bro is not a good caretaker, but she appreciates that he is honest in his actions. when he dies, he ends up losing his shades. rose decides to give up her shades for him as a way of mourning for him. (originally has the unbroken disc symbol before the scratch, but i was too lazy to add that) her planet is the land of time and rain (lotar)

dave lalonde: the knight of light he lives with his mom in fuck all new york. he explores the forest often and brings home dead bugs and bones often. his mom makes helps him clean the fauna and they are displayed along her novelty items. dave's comics are displayed on the fridge proudly, despite the common sexual content. his friend john gifts him some sunnies on his 13th birthday, which he takes to immediately. his planet is the land of heat and luminance (lohal)

john harley: the heir of space he lives on an island alone with his dead pop-pop. he spends most of his time watching movies, since his pop-pop isn't exactly playing with him. he sets up small pranks for the dolls that decorates his house, pretending they fall for them. he also likes to pretend that his house is haunted so he can bust the ghosts! looking through the various artifacts around his home, he finds a pair of sunglasses that kind of look like the sunglasses that were once of Ben Stiller's sort of gaunt face. he decides to give them to his friend dave, the coolest kid he knows. his planet is the land of hills and frogs (lohaf)
