You're not sure if that's a verb copasetic with the abstract behavioral medium in which you post, but you give it a shot

Hey there! For the uninitiated, MSPA is a website run by artist/writer/animator Andrew Hussie. Homestuck is a comic framed as if it were a text adventure game, told in second person. The command beneath each panel serves a "next" button. Don't forget to read all the dialogue and watch all the musical animations!

Homestuck is also an epic story of time travel paradoxes, alien civilizations, chess monsters, teleportation, human cloning, and Nick Cage tributes.

Wait, forget about that. That sounds incredibly silly! What's the story really all about?

Why you got to be asking all these Ultimate Riddles like that???


Homestuck is a seven act story in progress, currently at Act 5. There will be a short hiatus 7/20 to 7/27, so now is a good time to get caught up, or reread the story.

The server user builds up the client's house.
An exile's station will appear at the server user's location. That exile will talk to the client.
For example, WV found the cork station at Rose's place and talked to John.
The station will resemble the cruxite item.

John had a blue Sassacre book, and found an aged brown copy in a safe. The brown book had an inscription from his Nanna, which we saw at the start of Act 3. At the end of act 3, Nannasprite inscribed the blue book and sent it to LOWAS. Grandpa Harley retrieved it and took it to the Veil. The blue book went back in time on a meteor and eventually became the brown book.

Rose and Dave dream on Derse and hear the gods. Aradia hears the voices of her dead ancestors. Terezi dreams on Prospit and hears her incubating lusus. Sollux hears screams of the imminently deceased and has psychic visions.

GG > TG > TT > EB
Red team: AT > TC > GC > CG
Blue team: AC > AA > [AG or CT].
TA will presumably be on the blue team.

    bluhbluh I wrote a dumbish thing with it too just to make it MORE SAD apparently? I'm no writer, so uh.
    And you realize that all the strife, all the struggle you went through. Every plan you put together, all the backstabbing and conniving, the great lengths you went to to trump the people that held you down, and getting away from all them.
    You built a city – no, it was more than that. It was an empire, wait, a kingdom. It was your kingdom. You built it, you made it what it was. You ran it. Sure, behind the scenes. But people knew it was you. Everyone knew.
    You were a King.
    You were.

    You weren't.
    You never were, who were you kidding? Seriously? Who the hell did you think you were, thinking you could step outside what you were born into. You were set to fill a specific roll, and nothing else.
    All that you built up, all of that....work. Everything you did.
    But look at you now. What does that work mean at the end – because this is the end, you know it.
    That work doesn't mean anything. It's a card house; a lot of work, and it looks pretty, but it just passes the time. You don't get by just building card houses.
    And then in the end, of course, it crumbles.

    You weren't a King.
    You weren't an Ace.
    You never were anything you lead yourself to believe you were, despite all the work, and plans, and hopes.
    You were, and always have been just a Pawn.
    Nothing more, nothing less.
    You win small battles that, in the end, don't amount to anything.

    Only a Pawn.
