I don’t know. that’s some weird reverse kleptophilia stuff you’ve got goin on right there pal

Can only jade-bloods be rainbow drinkers?
Anonymous

yes! also, neat stuff:

Kanaya also stated that their caste must have developed these abilities after working in the dark birthing caverns, while Rose suggested that the ability could have been developed to scare predators away from young wigglers.

I didn’t know that! that’s cool

The impression I got with the jadebloods is the only way for a jadeblood to leave the brooding caverns was by a virgin mother grubs, and mother grubs are seemingly sapient and probably don't really have reasons to do that very often. I sort of like imagining a whole partially divergent society of jadebloods down there, though... what else are you gonna do when you can't leave and you're the only adults on the planet? Work hard, party hard.

I don’t normally post headcanony stuff but since the only jade blooded lusii are mother grubs it would make sense that only virgin mother grubs would actually leave the caverns, yeah

can you explain the just and heroic thing? im confused
Anonymous

if god tier people either die and they deserved to or they die heroically (while saving or attempting to save someone else’s life or do something good) then instead of being resurrected, they just stay dead forever!

it’s kind of complicated because the whole thing is totally subjective. some people believe that no one deserves death and some people think everyone deserves it. also, what’s considered “heroic” totally varies from person to person. the only way I can imagine the system working is if the judgment is based on how the people feel about themselves when they die

Which is more rare, Fuchsia or Jade Bloods? Are there plenty of fuchsia , but they are killed off in the brooding caverns or by the Condesce? Also, is the Dolarosa and her decedents the only Jade Bloods to leave the Mother Grub and Breeding Caverns, or has it happened before?
Anonymous

there are only two fuchsia blooded trolls alive at a time, one being the current empress and the other being the younger troll who is destined to attempt to overthrow her

I don’t know about you but I for one support the eternal troll matriarchy

also, rainbow drinkers are a relatively well known thing, so there are probably other jade bloods out there! however, the only ones we’ve seen have been the dolorosa and kanaya (and porrim I guess, but bluh bluh beforus)

virgin mother grubs are exceptionally rare apparently so almost all jade bloods live underground!

Can you please explain how roxy and rose are in the same game but roxy is her mother? Sorry if I worded this wrong

when john did the ectobiology, he created dave and rose from a combination of bro strider and mom lalonde’s genes. he also cloned mom lalonde, meaning that john had both a baby roxy and a baby rose. then, when the reckoning/scratch happened, baby roxy’s meteor was cloned. one clone of her went to the B1 earth and became mom lalonde, and the other clone went to B2 earth and became roxy

Hope it makes sense.

bye bye

Is it the lower you are on the hemospectrum the more of a chance you have getting powers? And what types of powers could the low blood possibly get?
Anonymous

the lower your blood, the higher chance yo have of having psychic powers, but you’re also more psychically susceptible!

psychic abilities we’ve seen in trolls have been:

  • telekinetic powers (aradia, the handmaid, and damara)
  • communing with and commanding beasts (tavros and the summoner, possibly rufioh)
  • psionic powers (sollux, the Ψiioniic, and mituna)
  • mind control (vriska, mindfang, aranea)
  • “chucklevoodoos” including, but not necessarily limited to telepathy, purple blood-specific (gamzee, possibly the GHB, kurloz)
  • psychic connection to gl'bgoylb, fuschia blood-specific (feferi, the condesce, meenah)

other than chucklevoodoos and the connection to gl'bgoylb, we’re not sure which psychic powers are exclusive to which blood colors or how many trolls have them, or if there are other psychic powers out there. it’s pretty complicated!

Can a God Tier player just randomly change their clothes at will? Like, just change what their God Tier outfit looks like, or even completely change out of it into something else? I was told that in one of the flashes someone was seen just changing their clothes at will.

as far as I understand it, vriska+aranea+meenah were only able to rapidly switch outfits because they were ghosts and ghosts have cool abilities like that in dream bubbles! I don’t think regular living god tier people can switch their outfits without just like…… changing their clothing the normal way

but living people can remove their god tier outfits! vriska did

I was re-reading through Homestuck recently and I got to the Jane: Proceed minigame thing (which ends with meeting Gamzee at her house, right before he sells her these motherfuckin potions), and around him is those floating scratch constructs that Aradia used when time travelling. How the hell did he get those and where exactly did he come from? I figure the answer is shenanigans as usual with Gamzee, but I was really confused ._.
Anonymous

he probably stole them from aradia. that rascal!

Do trolls have races? Like aside from the blood color, is there different shades of gray skin that would make a difference for them? Like, I saw gamzee's skin compared to karkat's, and gamzee's was darker. Also, is kanaya exclusively attracted to girls?
Anonymous

as far as we know, blood color is the only thing that separates trolls! also don’t even talk to us about kanaya’s sexuality ok
