Today I’m reading.

03/27/10- "Rose: Pester Jade.” (/homestuck/1627) to 03/31/10 - "==>” (/homestuck/1640)"

Select this thingy to read my commentary

When we last left Rose she’d just had a conversation with her game sprite. This sprite contains her dead cat that she claimed not to care about, but clearly did. Rose is now consulting with Jade who is “asleep” about the sprites' comment. It said that Rose is the one who is actually asleep.

Jade explains the dream selves they all have. Her sprite likely meant that her dream self is still sleeping.. Only Jade can communicate with the waking world because of her dreambot. But Rose's dream self is trying to leave messages, scrawled on her walls. John had been doing the same and his own memory had convinced him the scrawings were the work of the imps. This is even though they had actually been there long prior. Rose had been pushing John to believe he was insane for not knowing the scrawings were his own doing. She had been psychoanalyzing the heck out of him. And she knows the cause of it, and that she is also doing it. She tries to get ahold of Dave to confirm this. Apparently he’d have noticed this, but hasn't mentioned it to her. But, Dave is currently climbing a radio tower on top of his apartment building. He needs to get the egg back from his spiteful sprite.

Meanwhile he is looking at the piece of junk he had made. Also the salamander child he hugged randomly seems to be there with the oily rabbit plush. A cool jetpack with a brick, violin, and a flowerpot merged into it. gallowsCalibrator [GC] mentions to him that she can fix it. She mentions she has a “hacker” who can make it work. As John is preparing to take off in the new jetpack. Dave reaches out to him. This seems to be a bit of a time jump as Dave is already in the medium apparently. Dave sprite needs its second prototype but Rose is apparently asleep at this point. Weirdly he is saying the sprite is suggesting what it wants to be prototyped with. The jetpack seems to work very well blasting John into space. I guess air, and the deadly vacuum don't seem to affect him? Very whimsical!


Till tomorrow, keep riding the pumpkin tide.. with a cool jetpack.
