Im So Glad That You're Alive

im so glad that you're alive

let's talk about that in even beginning of homestuck there was a thing like "Dave you need to come out of the shadow of your Bro" and Dave who admired him and thought that he is a hero despite everything

And you know how there was Dirk who is if like more mentally prepared than Dave, not so soft like Dave who when act 6 began even didn't wanted to use his abilities or even battling. How Dirk is always for action, and that he is always act and ready. It's starting to feel like Dirk is more mentally and psychically stronger than Dave, that Dave is weaker and softier, and then.

Then, that's happens. And it feels like a brick hitted your head just now. This reveal of fact that Dirk adore Dave said loud from Dirk himself it's.. wow. (I know a6a6i5 exist BUT LISTEN). Despite everything Dirk fucking call Dave stronger person than he is AND ITS FUCKING BLOWING MY MIND

Now he Is a Villain

Drawed these dudes today

More parallels that no one wanted:

Two characters narrating the Homestuck epilogues: alt!Calliope and Ult!Dirk.

And remember how in the sixth act there were small fragments about Dirk rewritten book for Jane, and even though the piece is really small and didn't take so long, the conclusion there is that: a more cathartic and difficult to read version, almost unbearable. More cathartic and heavier, difficult for read version.. Didn't it remind you something? Something that Ult!Dirk narrate?

On the other hand, the fact that Calliope likes to tell/write stories was almost one of her Uniques, and Alt! Calliope (I don’t remember the quote word-in-word) tells that in past she loves stories too. Well, there is a candy epilogue. (Funny thing: in one of Dirk and Calliope's conversations, he wants to see her fanfiction, and even ask if it has a romance, but when he actually saw her fanfiction... Even though mmmmhhh from her fucked up evil version, himself being fucked up and evil, (I mean candy epilogue there, yeah) he did "what the fucking fuck" and just forget that thing as nightmare. And he also killed himself in it, lol.)

(About fanfiction: I know that Roxy and Rose were also into fanfiction, but I think 1) this is a deeper reflection on their characters connection as Lalonde family and theme and the second....)

Well, here's the second one:

Consider this: Rose is still Dirk's "right hand" in the meat epilogue. By the way, a funny detail: before the scratch/Cascade, Rose was clearly deceived by Doc Scratch, despite the fact that he seemed to be interested in her. On the other hand, Ult!Dirk has a part of Lord English and Doc Scratch too. Guess who manipulated and lied to Rose, showing interest in her too, but in meat epilogue? Yeah. You get it right.

In other side, Roxy in every epilogue is a bff for Calliope - and even if it not alt!Calliope manipulation, exactly meat!roxy first one who brings idea of that Dirk may be killed in the end. And who wants his defeat so much that she even make Dave into Davebot and Roxy telling that things? Yeah. You get it right.

And also! Remember how Caliborn hated Calliope's fiction? It's funny to me when I think about how Ult!Dirk(who have part of Lord English in himself who is Caliborn and etc) also don't like Alt!Calliope fiction.
