HomeStuck RP

[Celadon's Penultimate]

Hm...Okay. By the time I reach the most current update on Homestuck (I'm here) I'll get back to you with my decision as to whether or not I'll participate. Part of me wants to really bad, and part of me is really skeptical (requiring that a couple factors be in place before considering it).

[Philote]

Which factors?

[Celadon's Penultimate]

That I not already be participating in a bunch of other RPs already, for one. Also, I have to feel like I have a working knowledge of Homestuck's mechanics, which right now, I'm only partly comfortable with. And as much as I do like the idea of time shenanigans, I wouldn't like to be the one perpetrating it. If you need a Hero of Time, it will not be me.

In fact, if I do participate, I may just go with Zale's suggestion that I be a Maid of Doom. Setting up ways for foes to fail, and keeping an eye out, so that others don't.

Though, I wonder, how would we perpetrate the Trolls? Are we playing as ourselves, and our 'Patron Troll'? Just...there's stuff that needs working on, to make parameters clear, like we did with the LOC rules.

[Philote]

I think the current idea is that we will only have our main session at least for the start of the RP. Meaning only the initial players and no Ancestors or Aliens until we feel comfortable bringing them in.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

 Sounds good.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

I don't think I'll ever really be comfortable narrating aliens of any kind. Trolls, Cherubs or otherwise.

I just don't get them well enough.

[Philote]

They do not have to be necessary. We can just see how the RP turns out.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

Shit Phi, you basically nailed it when you said stealing nothing makes it so you can make anything. I retract all statements I made on the subject.

[Philote]

 Glad you agree.

I'm thinking of using some of the soundtrack from my favorite game as inspiration for my Fraymotives.

[Leminiscate Lullaby]


Not sure if this would be for my Void or Space player. Problem is that it has a pretty slow pace, but at least the rest of the soundtrack works better. Just this is the only one that I have a good name for as of yet.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

Well its kinda hard to argue with Hussie on the matter. Since he's made it cannon and all.

[Philote]

When did he do that?

[Marvelous Miscreant]

In the newest pages...when Jade is talking to Roxy

JADE: imagine that your title is roughly synonymous with "one who steals nothing"
JADE: what do you think it means to be able to steal nothing?
ROXY: it means
ROXY: im like a shitty cat burglar who sucks at her job?
JADE: WRONG
JADE: it means just the opposite
JADE: it means you can steal the essence of nothingness from something
JADE: you can rob nothingness from an idea if you put your mind to it
JADE: effectively allowing you to conjure virtually anything out of thin air

[Philote]

 Why did no one tell me new pages were already coming out?!

[Marvelous Miscreant]

I figured you already knew....

[Philote]

I thought he still had months to go or something as he worked on that kickstarter project.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

I was checking every few days just in case.

[Mik_Hael]

cool comic.

So, when we going to get this amage to it up and running?

[Marvelous Miscreant]

No idea.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

And I think the word you're looking for is "Homage" not "Amage". Unless you think this web series is a Sarmatian queen.

[Mik_Hael]

realized that after I wrote it, too lazy to correct it.
