Elaborating More On This I'd Also Like To Point Out That I Do Genuinely Really Love Horuss As A Character

elaborating more on this i'd also like to point out that i do genuinely really love horuss as a character

there's a lot about him i'd change because the way he's handled in canon is pretty intentionally making fun of systems & therians and there's a lot of more tactful ways to handle that (not surprising given some of the other dancestors)

and honestly? rufioh sucks. i like him as a character but as a person he's hot ass - the guy cheats on his girlfriend and then starts spreading shit about her being his 'psycho ex' while ignoring that HE is the reason she snapped in the first place (he and meenah anyway)

rufioh's a coward and needs to grow a backbone and i think a lot of people pity him because they see him as a victim when it's his spinelessness that ends up hurting people around him

that being said horuss isn't blameless either, he's still very obviously bigoted and though he genuinely loves rufioh there's still this part of him that sees their relationship as this scandalous, almost fetishistic indulgence

both horuss and equius are VERY sexual people and i think if they were ever developed further than they were in canon, part of their development would be not allowing that sort of thing to dominate their life because of how unhealthy it is to construct your personality around a fetish

not sure how hot of a take this is

meulin and horuss' relationship as it is in canon is extremely toxic and very obviously straining for horuss, that much is clear

HOWEVER, i think with an honest talk about their feelings (which is pretty customary for moirails) they could genuinely form a pretty stable pale relationship?

i think meulin as a character just needs to stop being so overwhelmingly positive all the time because it's obviously draining to horuss and it's probably not the healthiest for her as well? especially with how much trauma she's probably processing with kurloz

i dunno, i just think she's quite a flat character as it stands and i think she deserved better, and i think the key to developing her and her backstory more is more of a focus on her quadrants with kurloz and horuss. (provided that she's also allowed to function as her own entity, because right now part of the problem is how much of a satellite she is to kurloz who is infinitely more developed)

absolutely not what i was anticipating but arguably more interesting

now i should probably mention the reason i was asking was because i was planning on writing a fanfic

that's perfectly understandable to be honest

the thing is, if i were ever to attempt a dancestor continuation or something like that, there'd definitely be a few characters i'd need to outright retool to treat in any kind of respectful manner (damara and horuss are blatantly offensive and i just can't think of any way to do anything with cronus in his current state)

that being said, the entire backstory around damara, rufioh and horuss is one of the most interesting parts of homestuck. the dancestors have some really interesting interpersonal relationships; the damara/rufioh/horuss/meenah thing, the kurloz/meulin thing and how that relates to mituna/latula, porrim/latula, cronus/mituna/kurloz, and that's just the ones i can think of
