i think the reason ult selves don't really work (outside of dirk) is that most characters just... don't have that many distinct ult selves. like, the only roses we see that really get any time are davesprites timeline's rose and jasprose, so it seems kinda silly for all of those to add up to evil rose. and sure, something something dirk whatever, who cares?

it would be way more interesting if this was applied to a character with multiple distinct selves in the same way dirk has. someone like... jack noir?

anyway i interrupt my overly long analyses of spades slick to remind everyone that the midnight crew were all most definitely in the world’s most destructive poly relationship. join me next time when i definitively prove stabdads is real using empirical evidence and research from top harvard scientists

happy 413 homestuck number day etc etc now look. the interesting thing about spades slick is that he alone out of all the versions of jack noir managed to develop emotionally beyond “born to kill universe is a fuck 19383727 kids dead” and “if i just murder enough people maybe i can satiate my hatred for all creation and utter boredom with reality.” now im not saying slick isn’t a ultra violent mass murderer because he is. the difference is slick has actual purpose in life beyond wanting to mindlessly kill people for the shits and giggles— he made a fucking city! he partook in creation despite the fact that he’s supposed to be diametrically opposed to it! he’s got a crew to run and needlessly complex heists to plan! spade slick avoids bec noir’s ennui and eventual exhaustion by actually doing something with his life, by actually working towards something productive rather than just trying to subsist off the temporary catharsis of mass murder forever. he is the most actualized jack noir in the sense that he is the only on to go beyond his base instincts and actually create something of value for once.

and the tragedy is that it’s all for nothing. every true spades slick scholar knows the line “nothing left to lose, or live for” but i think it’s worth unpacking what this actually implies— that being, slick is actively trying to end his life in cascade rather than just wanting to settle his score with sn0wman and not caring about the consequences. everything he has ever done has just been part of an LE-typical long con to get all his friends killed, get him into the exile vault, get him to doc scratch, and eventually put him into a position where he has absolutely nothing left and into a headspace where he thinks he might as well be dead anyway. he did literally everything he could have done right as part of the game— helped the players, rebuilt society, aided creation— and yet in the end was still fucked over harder than anyone has ever been fucked over before or since. sorry slick you’re going to be replaced with the version of you with no emotional development at all. sorry slick. but after all, who would ever mourn a jack noir?

tl;dr spades slick is the most tragic character in all of homestuck. WV is a close second but only because he was a grown ass man and a traumatized war veteran and then the narrative decided to make him davekat’s dog

ok yeah this has been complained about to death but to this day i cannot comprehend the fact that B1 jack noir lived. even beyond the fact that he stole spade slick’s life for some reason (the reason is that they thought jacks were interchangeable) jack literally received NO CONSEQUENCES for his actions. he got away with everything. he literally murdered millions with his own hand and WAS THE MAIN FUCKING VILLAIN. and everyone just like. forgot i guess!

like it’s not narratively satisfying at all. we have this big cool villain wrecking shit the entire first half of the comic, who KILLED THE PROTAGONIST’S PARENTS, and then he’s put in a PM-shaped box for years because honestly once LE showed up i don’t think they knew what to do with him. and then when he does show up again in the main session they still don’t know what to do with him so they just have PM deal with it and then punch him in the face? instead of like making him a fine red paste? yknow for murdering all her friends and stuff. and then she just leaves. ok. cool

#jack noir #homestuck #the only good part of collide is when PM chops his arm off because i actually felt something then #whatever. who cares #yells at cloud #bec noir

trying to not lose my mind over the wording in this post hussie made regarding cascade (I am failing) (I am losing it and spinning in circles)

#WAUUUGH!!! <- cries of agony #insane about this still it’s such an interesting character beat that we wouldn’t have gotten if hussie didn’t word of god this into being 😭 #like. it reframes an act you could probably chalk up to him not giving a shit anymore and just wanting to kill snowman for the catharsis #to actively attempting to end his own life because he thinks he has no reason to live anymore #and he survives. oh my god. everything he does in the comic is part of a cosmic long con and when it’s finally over #he can’t even chose to die #spades slick is the most tragic character in homestuck because at least the other characters get to be happy on occasion #in cascade he looks fucking miserable #reblog #spades slick #homestuck

i like union jack i think he has a good design and i like how fucking angry he is. it’s just that you could replace him with a glowing roomba with a crowbar taped to it and functionally it would be the same

you have to understand that if spades slick and bec noir met they would fucking hate each other. jack would take one look at this beat down Constantly Gravely Injured version of himself who didn’t even have the balls to kill the black queen for her ring and want him dead immediately. just complete and total disgust with slick. he feels personally insulted that this fucking pansy who had the gall to create something was wearing his face and would want to snap his neck really really bad. meanwhile slick would see jack, the sovereign slayer, a man with absolutely nothing in his life but senseless slaughter and destruction, who kills for no reason other than mindless boredom, and get the strange feeling that he dodged a massive fucking bullet

if jack english was also there he wouldn’t do anything because he’s not a character

#self reblog #ur right about dead session jack though he’s the only normal one #killed calliope showed up once after that and then vanished. king shit
