    Eey quick update to say this is your one week warning! If you're considering signing up for Drone season this year you have one week to do so!

    Are Mobius Trip and Hadron Kaleido specifically supposed to be humans or carapaces, or does it not really matter since they're only in the fluff for an album? The description of them implies carapaces but the pictures are photos of non-disguised humans.

    That is a good question. I had assumed Carapaces and that the photos are of the real band members in simple cosplay.

    I’ve honestly always been confused about their place in the Homestuck cosmos in general. The album doesn’t seem to really tie that heavily into the comic lyrically, from what I recall, save for some obvious allusions?

    (Definitely wall to wall bangers on it tho)

    Human Mobius Trip looks sort of like A. Claire, honestly. Probably coincidence, but...

    This is a big project and I'm excited so I wanted to drop a link here too bc Why The Fuck Not I guess. I'm doing a big Alpha/Beta kids polyamory fic because it came to me in a dream and I ran with it after waking up. Everyone will be with everyone else in at least one configuration before the fic's end. Yes, everyone. I made a list and checked it with assistance lmfao. I'm excited to get to the rarer pairings that have neglected tags, folks deserve some good food once in a while. I'd suggest subscribing to it, or checking my art/writing thread for updates since I won't be pinging in here every time obviously. So far it's only two chapters. Mind the tags, they update with every addition as needed. <3

    A while ago I remember seeing a link to download all the homestuck music, including deleted albums like The Wanderers. Does anyone know where that link could be found? Wanderers was my favorite album :(

    I dunno if you mean the Unnofficial Homestuck Collection?

    no, unfortunately they don't have the music as part of their asset pack. I do have that downloaded tho!

    I think you’re thinking of the Homestuck Sound Test (compiled by a good friend of mine!)—and even if it’s not what you were thinking of, it DOES contain the deleted albums, including The Wanderers. :)

    I bought several of the homestuck music albums from bandcamp for my collection, but while tagging I noticed that two tracks are randomly missing from the download of colours and mayhem universe A -- specifically, "indigo archer" and "temporal shenanigans". anyone know why this is?

    i remember reading about some thing with ColoUrs and Mayhem having some plagarised tracks or something? that might be why

    afaik that was for the initial releases of "indigo archer" and "purple tyrant"; "temporal shenanigans" wasn't involved at all. I know several homestuck albums have had music removed in the past due to plagarism or artistic disputes, but I haven't heard a thing about why the replacement "indigo archer" and "temporal shenanigans" are suddenly missing

    I seem to recall hearing at some point that the artist behind Temporal Shenanigans requested its removal, but I could absolutely be misremembering. I’ll ask around though, I have a couple friends who might have some insight here!

    Fun convo on Discord about what the name of the male cherub parent is if the female is named Calamity. Calavera, meaning skull, is the best Cal- option we could find; the English words beginning with Cal- that I could find were... unfitting.

    swirlingflight inane analysis and story spinning is my passion

    Calavera and Caladium would make such an aesthetic pair on the symbolism side, though: skulls and greenery
