The TL;CR Meme



one: post with your characters.
two: respond to other people's characters with your characters.
three: they tell you in detail what their character thinks of your character. TL;DR is encouraged; that's how this works.
four; optional: discuss it with them if you want! Make a big chain of tl;dr if you're up to it.
five: other people do the same thing to you! Maybe you even harvest your tl;dr to use in a CR chart later.
six: keep checking back in so that no one is ever late!

(Shamelessly gakked from places.)

hehe sup dave!! :p

Yes. Yes to all of this. I agree with all of it. From Davesprite being the exception to the doomed Dave clause to the doomed timelines not lasting very long. Furthermore, yes to how it's a physical representation of his choices. SEE: simplified nutshell version of things.

No, I totally get this. The older my Dave gets the less inclined he is to go for a strife? I mean, he'll do it -- the first thing he did when he saw Dirk was make him chase him all over the place -- but there isn't as hair-triggery a response? I think it has to do with how much time has passed without Bro; the hero-worship starts to fade, and he starts to form his own ideas. Not that Bro is any less important (if anything, he's more important now?) but more that he's growing into his own.

It might just be me who plays him like that, I don't know.

Anyway, it makes sense. I swear to god, him just fucking going for it will get him killed one day.... Oh wait...

Because. Doomed timelines. Also Davesprite. Also Dave. Also just Homestuck in general?

Yeah, I think maybe it's translating from fighting each other more to I got your back, bro. Like that's always been a thing, but instead of coexisting alongside I will kick your ass, it comes to the forefront. Sparring on occasion to keep their skills sharp is fine, but it's still more about working together. Which is maybe derived from/foreshadowed by(?) the way Dave used his time loops to work with himself, like in the fight against Jack Noir. And it's echoed by the way Davesprite went to find Bro to back him up.

I fucking swear, if Davesprite dies because Dirk's death gets it into his head that he should just throw caution to the wind and throw down with the Condesce, I am going to facepalm so hard. This is probably what's going to happen.

But, god, yeah. Homestuck. Though I think the dream threads forced a lot of it into detail, because of the setups I used.
