[Other FULL] Homestuck 3: Breaking Canon [M]

Sonata · Mar 9, 2021

an SBURB roleplay based on the Homestuck franchise. Rated M

What's The Happs?

Viva la revolution! The evil witch, Jane Crocker is dead! Trolls and humans are living peaceful, coexistent lives, but they're also quickly fading from relevance. The original creators of Earth C have lost most of their powers, and are living relatively normal lives now among themselves. It seems, that this may actually be the reason you find yourselves sitting in front of your devices - wherever you may find yourself amidst this post-Jane pandemic which has locked down the world - actually considering booting up the mysterious copy of SBURB sitting on your computer.

You've heard tales from the creators before about both SBURB and SGRUB, but you may or may not have believed them. Whatever your thoughts were at the time, you made your choice. You booted up that game, and here you are. Facing the extinction of your planet as meteors have started to rain down on it. Whoever sent you this game, hasn't yet been in contact. But you've managed to round up a group of your friends and coerced them into also booting up this legend.

Now, you're in the medium. And this, is where our story begins. Build up your house, fight some baddies, and pass through your gates up until the end. Where we go between now and then, is for you to decide.

Clarifications / Rules

- General PC and RP rules apply.
- This RP is based around Homestuck. It's not necessary that you be overly knowledgeable on the subject, but it will make it much easier going forward if you at least know the premise of the series.
- This RP's plot and progression is meant to be worked on very closely among its players, and as such, it's been decided that each accepted player will be a co-gm.
- Because every accepted player is a Co-GM, we will be waiting to claim our classpects as well as describing our worlds until the RP has earned its cast of players.
- Because of how tight knit this RP is meant to be, Discord participation is more or less a necessity. That being said, https://discord.gg/92kNmKJz make sure to join this before making your SU
- We will only be accepting 6 players at maximum.
- Trolls, Humans, a mix thereof, and Cherubs are welcome.
- TyPiNg Qwerks r fun, butt don't f33l lyk yew haf to use them.
- Generally we're going to try and keep posts under 1500 words, using the general homestuck style of following commands with short one or two paragraph entries. Chatlogs will be worked on together through a special channel on the discord.
- Your SU will be treated as your first post, so answer it in character :)

Kitty · Mar 13, 2021

===> ENTER NAME
FAIRYSHIT DUNDERMUNCH​

You sigh, immediately deleting the name generated for you. 

HOPE HEIKKI​

That's much better.

===> LOL HOW OLD ARE YOU?

You just celebrated your birthday a while back. From your last calculations (a.k.a checking the amounts of PICTURES you have of the occasion on your brother's wall), you are SIXTEEN YEARS OLD. 

===> WHAT TYPE OF CREATURE ARE YOU?

From your PALE SKIN and BLONDE HAIR, you're pretty confident that you're a HUMAN. A HUMAN GIRL, in fact. That's simple enough to know, isn't it? 

===> WHAT COLOR DO YOU BLEED?

Unless someone magically changed the history books, you bleed RED. 

===> WHAT'S YOUR CHUMHANDLE SO I CAN @YOU?

Your chumhandle is observantProspect and you usually type in lowercase letters sometimes without punctuation so nobody really realizes that you stopped at a sentence but at least you type every single letter and number right.

===> WHAT ARE YOU INTERESTED IN?

For starters, you absolutely love every aspect of TECHNOLOGY-from the games to the gadgets, you have been an avid fan ever since you saw that vibrant red from the sound of a laptop turning on to the cool deep blue of a game's OST. That, and the way they make you able to do your other most favorite thing- gambling.

You love to GAMBLE, and pre-pandemic it was frowned upon (especially when you're still young). You love the idea of the THEORY OF PROBABILITIES (in fact, you like it so much that you're able to tangent around to how every single action you take can be a probability, you just don't realize it often enough) and gambling at a casino just hits right with you (as long as it's only a small amount of money). That said, you're regularly pessimistic about this as probability doesn't often state success, making you unable to make choices most if not all the time, especially in real life. 

That's why you love ONLINE GAMBLING, either through GACHA GAMES, HITTING THE TURNIPS STONKS MARKET, VIRTUAL CASINO SESSIONS, or just trying out the NEOVERSE ARPG LOTTERY. You're able to lose nothing while still doing what you like and exploring the realms of how statistics work with the lack of a "true random" in digital life. You're popular in the virtual gambling world with your stellar luck and calculated bets (that you sometimes cheated on, as you're able to see when people are lying through their teeth- but it's super hard to distinguish sometimes when you see someone terribly good at it). 

===> WHAT WAS/IS YOUR DOMICILE LIKE?

Your domicile, or rather, your home is pretty plain. You live on the 42nd floor of a huge condominium for starters, and that in itself is in the urban jungle- you can see a bunch of skyscrapers outside your window. 

The condo itself is pretty neat, though. It's a two bedroom, two bathroom floor with a common living space that you and your BROTHER share. The living room is the cleanest, with it rarely being used by the both of you and remains like any average common room out there- clean with a pretty bouncy SOFA-BED CONVERTIBLE as well as a COFFEE TABLE, with a TWENTY INCH WIDE FLATSCREEN TV hanging on the wall. There is also a wide variety of CONSOLES lying about, each with two controllers. 

Your own room, however, is not as neat. There's an area of the room where it looks relatively untouched by society, but the seventy five percent of the area near your bed is an organized mess. This is thankfully hidden by the half wall that separates that twenty five from the seventy five, so you can lie to the people who (somehow do) see your room that it is not as bad as they think it is. 

Moving on to the huge area of interest, your BED. Near your bed is an L-SHAPED DESK, in which you have a FANCY TOP TIER COMPUTER that you regularly use aside from your HANDY BRAND NAME LAPTOP. Name any state of the art GADGET and you might just have it stashed away, from AIRPODS to the REALLY IRRELEVANT GAMECUBE CONTROLLER PART NOBODY CARES ABOUT. Along with the various tech would be CASINO-RELATED ITEMS that you buy as souvenirs from your (barely legal) excursions pre-pandemic. These include various POKER CHIPS, A DECK OF CARDS, LITERAL (FAKE) GOLD, and the like. They're all haphazardly stored at the desk, or at the floor near your bed, or both depending on the situation. 

===> WHAT DO YOU USE TO FIGHT?

You currently have two strife cards in your strife deck. One is CARDKIND, which lets you handle and use any cards as throwing weapons, while the other is SLOTMACHINEKIND, where you are able to use a (miniature) slot machine-you got this as a gift from your brother- to grab or "shoot" various rewards. 

===> HOW DO YOU ORGANIZE YOUR INVENTORY?

You're currently storing your items in a BINARY DATA-TYPE SYLLADEX. Right now, you're on the u8 version, which means you can store up to 255 items as long as you remember what number you assigned them to. You've been meaning to upgrade to an u16 version for more space, but you keep forgetting.

===> WHY DO YOU LOOK LIKE THAT?

Look like what? Ignoring the messy blonde bun at the top of your head and some freckles that are scattered on your face, you look pretty fabulous in your opinion. At least, you're the best looking person in the room. That's a hundred percent certain. You're currently alone right now. 

Unless you're asking about what you're wearing now, in which you are wearing a high fashion outfit: a BLACK DRESS with a RED VELVET JACKET on top, paired with SIMPLE BLACK FLATS. You also always have either your AIRPODS or HEADPHONES with you at all times along with some technological necessities like your LAPTOP and PHONE. 

==> WHY DOES YOUR SPRITE LOOK LIKE THAT?

What?

==> YOUR KERNELSPRITE.

Oh. 

Well you see, you were slightly panicking when you saw the meteors rain down from above and all suddenly a KERNELSPRITE popping in from who knows where (at least that's what you heard it was called), you haphazardly slipped, fell, and your older PHONE WITH THE CRUDE AI you were working on managed to somehow prototype itself with the sprite. 

So. 

Yeah.

Sometimes you call it JARVIS.

==> REPLY TO YOUR FRIEND

Sonata · Mar 13, 2021

Here you stand - or float, rather, in what remains of your house. Your journey has already started, but nobody has had the chance to meet you yet. You run a file across your horns, making sure that they're jagged enough to fit in with current fashion norms before you twist the studs in your fin to make sure they're facing the right way. 

Today is a big day, after all. Destiny has decided that today - we will get to know you.

Yeah, that was pretty funny, wasn't it? I'm like... 14? 15? Idk man, maybe I'm 16. It's somewhere in there I think. I've blacked out a few too many times from getting into accidents to know how much time has really passed. Shit's weird to think about sometimes. Maybe I'm actually like, 25 and just don't know it? But that wouldn't explain why my friends haven't aged as well... unless it's their fate to- no, that's silly and doesn't really make sense.

Oh shit, more friends. Sure, it's coralTracer. You don't have a set style, susually just leave whatever your fingers randomly tap against in between words since thems the breaks. Your webbing gets in the way a lot and sometimes will add extra spaces where there shouldn't be, but it's no the worst thing.

Fashion, video games, anime, DESTINY. Like have you ever thought about destiny? Don't even get me started man. Look at us, here, now, talking together, learning about each other - how? Why are we here? Why is it you and me and these other three and -

[a id]Aqui-WHAT WAS YOUR DOMICILE LIKE[/a id]

Wow, that's mad rude but ok. I guess there's plenty of time to talk it out later. I live in a coral palace called undadasea and - no, sorry bad joke. I don't actually like the puns that other people in my cast use too much, but I do live in a coral palace. Unfortunately it got taken over when this game started and now these knightly fuckin renaissance lookin dudes are rifling through my stuff and I just can not get them out. Like, they're not really bothering me yet, since I got so much stuff laying around that I don't even know what to do with, but it might get irritating - eventually.

There used to be a lot of Troll models that would come and go for some of the outfits I would make, but since we're not on Earth anymore it kind of doesn't really matter. At least, I don't think there's any stragglers hiding out here. But there again, that'd be destiny for you.

===>[alink id=Aqui-WHAT DO YOU USE TO FIGHT]WHAT DO YOU USE TO FIGHT[/alink id]​

[a id]Aqui-WHAT DO YOU USE TO FIGHT[/a id]

Oh no, I don't really do that here. I typically stick to Fistkind just so I don't hurt myself, but I guess I also have 2x3dentkind - they kind of just fell from the sky a while back, and I didn't know what to do with them so I started filling the house with them just to keep the ocean free of clutter. They're like... a weird sort of abstract art piece now. I actually kinda vibe with it.

YAHTZEE. Now don't get me wrong, I tried a few different things but Yahtzee? You wanna talk about DESTINY, let's talk about randomly rolling the dice to find what you need. Hoo boy. Already the number of times I thought I didn't need something that came up or needed something that didn't but found myself able to work it through with what I had are like... 3, maybe 4 times. But that's a lot! This shit gets WILD.

Oh, that's Peppy. Yeah, he was a pufferfish I used to look after but he kinda kicked it a while back. I decided not to move his body though, because it just kind of seemed like it fit with the rest of the room since all those tridents fell down here. I still don't know what else I want to throw on him to make him look a little cooler, but I'm sure I'll figure it out eventually. Fate will decide for me if I can't.

spottedfirestar · Mar 13, 2021

You stand amongst the pile of rubble that your house had partially disintegrated into, you look out to the strangely colored sky, from what was your living room. You have lived fifteen years of your life, but now you feel like your life is only truly beginning.

...

Who are you?

===> ENTER NAME

You can not ENTER a name as you have already received your name at thirteen years old! See, you even have your HONORARY PLACRONYM to boot! It's sitting on your shelf. It's right there!!!

The name on your placronym is your given name, ROSALIND WAYFARER. But most people call you ROSIE, or even just ROSE.

===> LOL HOW OLD ARE YOU?

You are currently FIFTEEN YEARS OLD, however you are due to turn sixteen in a matter of months, and it has you quite EXITED, even if you know that you're probably going to DIE.

===> WHAT TYPE OF CREATURE ARE YOU?

With your dark green EXO-SKELETON, PINK CHEEKS, your CLAWS, and POSIONOUS FANGS, you are CONFIDENT that you are a CHERUB! A MALEVOLENT ALIGNED CHERB, which sometimes causes you ISSUES, but that's besides the point.

===> WHAT COLOR DO YOU BLEED?

When you are in full control you bleed a BRIGHT PINK, when your sister begins to take control your pink blood shifts to a BRIGHT SKY BLUE, like some sort of psyducking color shifting nail polish.

===> WHAT'S YOUR CHUMHANDLE SO I CAN @ YOU?

What? No one willingly wants to @ you. Though it's rapaciousFlush [RF] AND YOU TALK IN A MIDLY ANNOYING FASHION, IN ALL CAPS. MINUS YOUR vS, WHICH ARE IN LOWERCASE. OTHER THAN THAT YOU WOULD SAY YOUR SPEECH IS FAIRLY NORMAL, MINUS THE OCCASIONAL MISSPELLING THAT HAPPENS DUE TO YOUR CLAWS.

===> WHAT ARE YOU INTERESTED IN?

Having rose shaped cheek marks it is of no surprise that you enjoy GARDENING, you also enjoy READING FANASTY NOVELS, and enjoying VERY FEMININE FASHION. You enjoy getting lost in fantasy, to ignore the reality of your pending death date. Though even then you are not often to partake in many of these actives, as you are typically not control of your body. As your sister reigns control, and you are rarely out.

===> WHAT WAS/IS YOUR DOMICILE LIKE?

Your domicile is fairly...typical. You grew up with a singular parent unit, a white carapacian that you call MOM, in a very plain black and white two story house. The same as any other carapacian house in the area. While the house is upkept and neat, your sisters room is typically a MESS with both of your HOBBIES scattered about the room. You don't frequently see your own house or interact with your own mother the rare times you are brought fourth, as you would much rather spend time in the garden that despite your best efforts, is almost in constant state of disarray and death, because of your lack of proper awake time. You are also sure your MOM is scared of you because you are a MALEVOLENT CHERUB, and there has been a push longer than you've been alive to RUN MALEVOLENT CHERUBS TO THE GROUND. Not allowing them to have a chance of success in domination, giving all the proper care to the BENEVLONET CHERUBS.

===> WHAT DO YOU USE TO FIGHT?

Fight? You are not allowed to FIGHT. You are a MALVEOLENT CHERUB. Partaking in any sort of negative activity might get you PRE-MATURELY EXCEUTED, at the detriment of your sister, who would then never be able to fully mature.

Though you would like to imagine that you would have SHOVEL KIND as you use them often while gardening, with super vision of course!

===> HOW DO YOU ORGANIZE YOUR INVENTORY?

Much as how you are not allowed to have a SYLLADEX either.

Well that's not exactly true, you do indeed have one. A specifically tailored VINES AND RIVERS modus that you and your sister shares. That would IN THEORY allow you and your sister to trade items amongst each other willingly, or taking the action of 'going down the river' or 'snooping through the vines' to STEAL A RANDOM ITEM from the other siblings side. Though there is a child lock on your side of the modus, so it is PRATICALLY USELESS as it CONTINIOUSLY DETECTS ATTEMPTS OF DANGEROUS ITEMS BEING CAPACHALOUGED. So they are EJECTED.

===> WHY DOES YOUR SPRITE LOOK LIKE THAT?

Sprite? Is that what that thing is called? The seizuring ball of blue and pink you only knew briefly before your SISTER took over, once again. She had only the time to 'accidently' put in one of your mothers many PRETTY DOLLS before you forcefully took control back.

This isn't what you WANTED, but it will work...you guess.

Flowerchild · Mar 14, 2021

===> ENTER NAME

Your name is QUASUS CORIYA.

===> LOL HOW OLD ARE YOU?

You have had SIXTEEN WRIGGLING DAYS since you were set loose upon this world.

===> WHAT TYPE OF CREATURE ARE YOU?

You are a TROLL, much to your regret.

===> WHAT COLOR DO YOU BLEED?

You are a JADEBLOOD. Which is very boring of you. Troll stuff is SO BORING, who even cares anymore.

===> WHAT'S YOUR CHUMHANDLE SO I CAN @YOU?

Your chumhandle is hellbentHumanoid and You :) Take :) A :) Break :) To :) Smile :) Between :) Every :) Word :) So :) Humans :) Will :) Like :) You :))))))

===> WHAT ARE YOU INTERESTED IN?

Humans! You are so very interested in humans, they are FASCINATING CREATURES. But unfortunately, they find you RATHER OFF-PUTTING and PLAY PRANKS ON YOU. You've never been sure why. You simply want to know EVERYTHING ABOUT THEM.

You have a secondary interest in ARCHEOLOGY AND HISTORY, in particular the history of ANCIENT HUMANITY. Of course, this is EARTH C and there are no human ruins on this planet, but you are NOT ABOUT TO LET THAT STOP YOU. Did the ancient knight of the round table GENGHIS KHAN let the fact that he didn't know AMERICA EXISTED stop him from discovering it? No he did not! You are almost certain that is how that happened.

===> WHAT WAS/IS YOUR DOMICILE LIKE?

An absolute mess. You have no time to be organizing! There's research to be done. Dishes, wrappers, and clothes form an opaque layer on your floor, making walking anywhere a difficult task. The last time you had a friend over he ran away screaming.

Untouched, of course, are the POSTERS OF FAMOUS HUMANS that adorn nearly every inch of available space on the walls. You are an especially big fan of ROBERT PATTINSON. He is so great. Much better than the TROLL ROBERT PATTINSON you had back home.

===> WHAT DO YOU USE TO FIGHT?

Your STRIFE DECK contains two STRIFE CARDS. The first is EXCALIBURKIND, a sheath worthy only for the LEGENDARY SWORD EXCALIBUR from humanity's mythos. Unfortunately, you do not possess such a sword, but you are sure you will someday.

For more everyday use, you have a GLASSESKIND strife card that lets you use your GLASSES as a weapon, like the ancient BATTLENERDS of humanity past. You are ABSOLUTELY SURE that those were a thing, and nobody was playing a prank on you in the slightest.

===> HOW DO YOU ORGANIZE YOUR INVENTORY?

Your items, the few of them that you actually carry around with you, are stored in a QUIZ-TYPE SYLLADEX. When you wish to retrieve an item you must answer a question about HISTORY or ARCHEOLOGY. If you get it wrong, all your items are dumped on the ground for you to pick up and hopefully get good next time, scrub.

===> WHY DOES YOUR SPRITE LOOK LIKE THAT?

You didn't forget about the Robert Pattinson joke right?

Your sprite is EDWARDCULLENSPRITE, created when you accidentally prototyped a MOVIE POSTER of that magnificent film. You had originally intended to prototype something a little more historical, such as the LEGENDARY SWORD EXCALIBUR, which, as stated before, you do not possess and have never possessed. But having a vampire as a sprite hasn't been so bad. The glowing skin is a great help during your many CAVE SPELUNKING ADVENTURES.
