Summary
"Yeah, okay," Dave said, pulling Karkat abruptly out of his thoughts. He had won the battle against smiling, though his blond eyebrows were slightly raised. "Well, I'm into Alternian guys, around 5'7, medium build. Bonus points if they work in events and always look like somebody just pissed in their cereal." He met Karkat's incredulous stare with cool indifference. Under the table, Karkat could feel his knee bouncing. "You happen to know anybody like that?"

Summary
Dave Lalonde is an internationally renown movie director arguably more famous than God, and indisputably richer. He certainly isn't expecting the bizarrely dressed stranger he runs into in the bathroom of an Academy Awards afterparty to indelibly interpose himself into his life in the worst possible ways. However much he might want to, Dirk Strider inevitably proves to be a man that Dave will never be able to forget.

“I’ve been trying to integrate some Alternian samples into my mixes lately,” Dave said, with a little half-shrug. “You know - appeasing our new overlords by totally appreciating their sick beats. I thought maybe that’s why you keep coming to see me.”

Summary
Fighting fire with fire is okay in theory but Detective-Summoner Dave L. Strider figures trying to summon corporeal demons to the mortal plane to fight other demons is likely to backfire spectacularly. Sadly for him his inner Knight gets the vapors at the thought of letting anyone else play guinea pig.
Yup, he is totally hogging the demon. What could go wrong? (Oh no, Dave, why did you have to think that.)

Bookmarker's Notes
wow, just….
AGONIZING pining, in the sense that their relationship is so complex and fraught with imbalance, then later trust and affection. The alien-ness of the trolls was translated well with a genuine queer relationship that takes different species’ emotions into account. Love how broken up Dave was about sex. Was very raw, left me pretty emotional.
Crazy world building. Will honestly need a reread to pick up on everything that went over my head before I realized how many moving parts were under the surface here.

I liked the Homestuck Epilogues, but they aren't canon, and they make no pretense at being canon. If you're uninterested in taking Andrew Hussie's word for it, maybe you'll take my several thousand ones.

Summary
Two omniscient bros with debilitating depression, sitting between realities, five feet apart because we haven't reached that part of the narrative yet. Keep a tight grip on the bridles of your metaphorical horses. I'm working up to it.
(Dirk is tired. Haven't you ever wanted to let someone make the tough choices for you?)

Summary
John is revived on Theseus about a year into the trip, and he’s come back both ascended and depressed. He disassociates often, which for him is a lot more literal than most. Dirk brings out a side of sadism John didn’t realise he had in him and John brings out sadomasochism that Dirk was well aware he had in him. It’s kind of romantic.

Summary
Sure, maybe you knew that this was going to happen eventually, but the 'when' part of the whole thing couldn't have been dropped on you at a worse time.
The aching reality is that you’re about to be involved in a war.
An actual, all-encompassing ‘super sucks that I might not see my mid-to-late thirties’ kind of war.
And fate, relentless bitch, went ahead and decided that right now has been the perfectly appropriate time to reintroduce the colossal fucking traitor you used to be in love with back into your life.
Unbelievable.

Summary
"You’re a virgin,” Gideon said, testing it out. "Huh."
Harrow didn’t like the sound of that huh. She knew Gideon’s noises, and that was a thoughtful, sinister huh. That was the same huh she’d made before putting canned tuna in Crux’s work boots.
Her eyes narrowed. “What.”
Gideon cocked her head to the side. “Is there a reason you’re waiting?” There was no judgement in the question— only genuine curiosity.
Perhaps it was this that made Harrow more inclined to answer. “I don’t have the time to look for someone new,” She shrugged. “And my available pool is… somewhat limited.”
“Well,” Gideon said, with just a hint of conspiracy in those glittering golden eyes. “If you ever want to change that, you have my number.”
What? What?
Harrow blinked. “What?”
Or: the five times Gideon and Harrow successfully bone, and the one time they don't.

“Your crew mate is fine, by the way, should you want to know.”
A chill runs up Curly’s spine at the nurse’s words, torn muscles trying to contort him into a shudder. Jimmy— is Jimmy alive? Did he somehow…
No. No, no, no. Please no.
***
No matter how much Curly tries to prepare himself, he isn’t ready for the terror of facing Jimmy.
Turns out, he is even less prepared for the shocked grief of seeing Anya.
