Uuuugh. the art is so cute >:3c Spoiler Though we've conveniently used up our spare lives for a number of characters... I don't understand. Why does something need to crash? Is it because big upd8's have crashed things before?
the art is so cute i really like it Spoiler everything is going too smoothly though!!! i don't trust this! there are too few complications! this is too smooth!
Cascade basically crashed half the internet newgrounds was first, then in quick succession megaupload, youtube, tumblr and twitter Hussie's tweet on the matter was particularly great and flippant but i can't remember how exactly it went or find a screenshot
I didn't know about the last three. I just remembered up to Megaupload. (Possibly because I got it off Megaupload before it crashed, and then I was too busy having my mind blown to worry about how much more of the internet it destroyed.)
Spoiler that has to to be so fucking surreal, to see two sprite versions of your dead mother. oof, got the Dead Mom shivers.
@TheMockingCrows well, not really, since Spoiler This is Dad Crocker; his mother was an unknown woman and his father was Alpha!John. Nanna is Beta!Jane and the mother of the long since deceased Dad Egbert.
Spoiler I'd forgotten she was unknown. I remember he's Dad Crocker. Severe lack of lore memory derp moment, my bad.
*quietly slides Feferi <3< Eridan fic under the door* *goes back to screeching about upd8* THIS DOES NOT BODE WELL, IT'S THE CALM BEFORE THE STORM
Spoiler OHGOD DIRK'S OKAY I was legitimately worried for him there even though it looked like it would turn out okay
Spoiler It looks like Roxy's eyeing Terezi up. My inner johnroxrezi shipper is very happy about this development.
I know i'm VERY late to the party, but did anyone else think that the music in collide was a little..wonky? The four tracks didn't really flow into each other very well, especially not toby's DDR/Bullet-hell remix of other homestuck themes. It fit with the animation, but not with the rest of the music (It might just be me, but that song doesn't stand very well on its own). One of the best parts of Cascade was how the music built on itself throughout the whole animation, I'm just not getting that with collide. I wonder if we're going to get something more unified to close out the comic.
I strongly suspect the disjointedness is like the weird static at the Green Sun and the end. Ominous hints something is missing or not quite there.
Yeah I felt like the music was on purpose - it was meant to be worrying and set us on edge even as the frantic pace of the whole thing had us all OMG at the fights. LE is not defeated. This isn't The Big Bad O:
Okay I'm going to drop a little drama in here because it also results in me screaming about headcanons/fic wants. I got some commentary on my Eri/Fef fic that is making me >:/ Spoiler: The Drama Seriously bro? 1) This fic really doesn't have anything to do with Gamzee, please take your stanning back to Tumblr 2) Say it with me kids: Character Opinion Is Not Necessarily Author Opinion! 3) Eridan is absolutely not "fine as a daisy", did you not catch how many times I mentioned that no one wants to even talk to him (except Karkat because he has to keep track of everyone)? Did you catch the part about Kanaya still wanting to murdilate him? "Fine as a daisy" my ass. What I actually said was: Which I thought had already been conveyed fairly clearly? And then... And less dramariffic but still :/ You say that like it's a bad thing. Fuck yes, give me Eridan as the new Dualscar. Give me Eridan as what Dualscar could have been. Give me Eridan's hapless-but-deadly fury tempered and tamed and utilized. Give me Empress Feferi on her throne in all her glory with her hand resting lightly on the nape of the most feared troll in the Empire. Give me Eridan's devotion as the powerful sword it could be, and put it firmly in Feferi's perfectly manicured hand. Edit: Ignore the "files" below, they are an oops
