Today I’m reading.

06/16/09- "==>” (/homestuck/262) to 06/17/09 - "Years in the future, but not many...” (/homestuck/271)"

Select this thingy to read my commentary

John’s current mission is to get his PDA back. Conveniently the tiny spot of his neighbour's lawn that the PDA landed is in the void with John. Rose is able to build a thin plank leading off of his out and closer to the PDA. This is scary for John but it works and John is again able to communicate remotely.

John is able to see from his fathers social media account that Rose's account of things are true. Humidity seems more concerned about material objects than people. But the network of incredibly boring men do show some concern for John's father.

John expresses to Rose that he's compelled to do things by an odd voice in his head. She’s concerned this may be some sort of anxiety but suggests he press on and finish prototyping the sprite. She also mentions she's running low on battery power.

As John returns to the house the “audience” begins with more annoying commands. John is resisting demanding to know who is in his head.

Years in the future we see the wayward vagabond once more. They opened the hatch with the spirographic logo and wandered into a facility. There is a large device with 5 displays in the configuration of the Homestuck logo (the green house with the squares) we see in those displays John is about to bite the apple. The Wayward vagabond is the “audience” as he types “BOY.” onto a keyboard before him.

This is a bit of time buggery that Homestuck does a lot. The Wayward Vagabond is on earth (or what I assume is earth) in the future created by SBURB destroying the world. The facility he is in seems to be how to control the game. It may be a moderation centre. It's built to withstand the end times.


Till tomorrow and long after, but not too long after, Keep riding the pumpkin tide.
