Nah. Hussie just happens operate under similar logic to my own, at least to some degree: "Well, more than a year would really be pushing it, and I was going to stagger the updates anyway, soooooo..."
You are the end result of a “would you push the button” prompt where the prompt was “you have unlimited godlike powers but you appear to all and sundry to be an impetuous child” – Zero, 2022
Well, reality does have a tendency of bending over backwards to give you what you want in a way that I can never convince you of.
(Most non-Aliroz individuals have this, but you seem to have more of this tendency than usual. Maybe .483 standard deviations above the mean).
...reality bends backwards to please everyone except you? That sounds dangerously solipsistic.
Serious Response: Yeah, I know.
Joke Response: Well, now that you say it that way, it seems so.
(Note: I don't genuinely, sincerely believe this on a level more than you believe that a usb cable is trolling you by not fitting in the right way on the first time; or that you believe that you always come up with a good retort after it's too late, or that you believe that you alwas have to put a book down right when you're at a good part)
Man, Equius and Nepeta's deaths get to me more each time.
IT KEEPS HAPPENING.
Stupid identifying with useless minor characters (Equius and Nepeta are so Yarrun and I back when we were a couple years younger it's not even okay). I know that getting killed off for feels (and making there be twelve trolls) was the only point of them, and I know that they weren't really important, but still.
I wish I was capable of doing Homestuck rereads but I've never been able to
screw ADD/ennui/whatever, man
also rereading it is like having a nostalgia grenade thrown in my face and that suuuucks. Basically anything that puts me in a mindset I had earlier on in my life puts me in this weird emotional funk and I hate it. It happens with a lot of things.

They are important for several other reasons, plot-wise, but it's all very low-key stuff. Equius has a little more purpose overall, however.

Honestly, all those characters had survived the story so long that I just kind of assumed that they were safe and that nothing would happen to them, with the exception of Gamzee and Aranea. John beating the shit out of Caliborn was satisfying though.
Less pressing but tangentially related: The most recent Paradox Space has art partially by Tom Siddell from Gunnerkrigg Court, it's shaping up to be a send-up of high school horror manga, and there's a background bit with Kurloz and Meulin that is hilarious.
Both PM and Jack put on rings that prototyped them with Becquerel, thus giving them an irrational overriding loyalty to Jade. Because Jade dies while under the Condesce's control, Dave is trying to keep her body safe but dead. PM and Jack are not OK with this plan.
Why are the black-and-white dogs trying to kill Dave again?
I skipped that part.
Spoiler:
Jade got crushed by Araena and he was trying to take Jade to Jane so she could revive her, but the dog protective instinct kicked in for the Becquerel part of Bec Noir and the PM, so they were chasing him to retrive Jade's body, iirc.
