[image descriptions: the condesce addresses Kanaya, Rose, John, and Roxy, saying, "hey everyone, it's pride!" she holds up her trident. "you know what that means!" her trident and the Pisces symbol on her bodysuit are now rainbow striped, and she says while smirking, "forgetting about our war crimes because we have a rainbow logo now!" / end ID.

bonus for talk like a pirate day:
[ID 1/2: Doc Scratch narrates Rose's life, saying "from a young age, you realized the mirrors never showed your reflection; they showed you how you'll look in a month. one day, your reflection is gone." Rose continues the narration: "'huh, I guess I am gonna go through with it'. 'what?' calls my vampire girlfriend from the other room. 'tell you later' I say." Kanaya joins her by the mirrors and sees what she meant. / end ID 1. I hope that was understandable.
ID 2/2: Joey poses in a pirate costume. Elwurd, giving her a thumbs up of approval, says "pirates and wlw, can't get any better than that". / end ID 2/2]
ggrrr, argh.

in this world, it's yeet or be yeeted.
Want to know my favorite little known homestuck fact? Not headcanon. Fact. Heavily textually supported fact.
So we know lowbloods, particularly goldbloods, frequently have “psiionic” powers which seem to mostly consist of telekinesis and the ability to shoot lasers from their eyes. Lowbloods with these powers are frequently forced into service as “Helmsmen” in the Imperial Fleet where they are implied to serve as basically the ship’s engine.
In Hiveswap Act 1, attempting to use Xefros’s powers on I think the autotune mic (but it may have been another electrical object) laughingly dismisses the idea that troll psiionics are electricity or can be used to power things.
In Hiveswap Friendsim Volume 4, Vikare’s story revolves around his obsession with flight and his attempts to invent powered air craft, making it explicitly clear that Alternia never invented aeronautics. They have no flight technology.
Are you beginning to see where I’m going here?
ALTERNIAN SPACE SHIPS AREN’T POWERED.
THEY JUST HAVE TELEKINETIC TROLLS PICK THE SHIPS UP AND THROW THEM.
HELMSMEN ARE LITERALLY PROPELLING THE SHIPS THROUGH SPACE TELEKINETICLY.
I mean, when you think about it, it makes sense! Why bother with rocket fuel and wings when you have a planet full of people who can make shit fly with their minds? But still, it’s hilarious to me that this incredibly technologically advanced civilization doesn’t have engines in their ships and don’t know how they work because when they need to go somewhere they just have THE LOWBLOOD GET OUT AND PUSH.
[image description: a sprite edit of doc scratch, who usually has no face, now with a badly drawn angry face. he has thick downturned brows, tiny dots as eyes, a squiggly line as a nose, and a mostly vertical frown. I use this as my profile picture. / end ID.]
sometimes I see posts or messages from people with characters I know as their profile pics I'll keep thinking that the character is talking, and I wonder if anyone has that for me and my pfp? I hope boomer caillou doesn't make anyone feel too weird around me!
well anyway, happy belated disabled pride month! I meant to post this and a few more image descriptions in July to celebrate, but I fittingly got too sick to have the time and energy. this happened last year as well. very funny, mortal vessel >:(
I gave him a face!
“think of my tiny legs!” Lots of trolls definitely don’t need to be told twice to think about MC’s legs, just sayin…
