I don't wanna die so you're gonna have to

Jake English is no longer reserved.

Bro Strider has been made inactive and rather, Sawtooth has become active, instead.

Davesprite has been reawakened and added to The Resistance.

We’re still working on promoting the timeline, but for the time being, we are limiting one character per person, save for the exception we’ve made, at least, to my understanding.

A few days ago, I updated the application from the old format. The older application was very old and therefore very out of date. 

I’ve switched from Dave Strider to Bro Strider. 

Accepted applications, aside from the returning members have been posted! The example application has been changed for my switch and made more accurate. There may be more updated applications from other members soon.

A skype group chat has been set up for accepted members.

The character page now states clearly where everyone is aligned.

The character page now notes desired characters, and these characters cannot be reserved. We’d like these character spots filled first as well as other humans. These wanted characters are Dave, Roxy, and Rose.

We now accept human beta troll applications!

Dave Strider is now locked as Resistance

Jane Crocker is now locked as The Ones Above Us

A timeline of plot points of what has occurred before the timeline reset has been typed up and published.

A better explanation of the Resistance has been typed up by Sanda.

I’ve added Sanda and Connor as mods!

We’ve gotten John Egbert, Mom Lalonde, and Hal filled.

Jade Harley now has an active blog up!

We’re working on a promotional banner post for our blog!

A lot of changes have happened to the timeline, but we think that these things were well needed and necessary. We’re excited to see new mods and members of our timeline!

More pages about The Ones Above Us or other characters may be posted in the future. Look out for our Available character post and other news soon!

We have also opened spots for Beta Trolls !

Muse applying for: John Egbert Why you are choosing the character: I’ve had more experience with John than any of my other muses, and people tend to like my portrayal on him so I figured he would be wise to choose. Beyond that, John is definitely one of my top 3 homestuck characters, and I feel like certain aspects of his character would be fun to explore. Muse’s Age and Where they live: For the time being he’s currently in a small, compacted city in Washington, trying to work his way outside it’s confines to search for his friends, because he just knows that they have to be out there too. He only hopes that they aren’t in a worse condition than himself. The Resistance, or The Ones Above Us?: John is part of The Resistance. Give a loose explanation of their back-story: When the game ended, John thought that was it. They’d all be all right now, they can go home now. But when he was faced with his whole town wiped off the map and chaos ensuing in every direction, it’s as if his heart shattered.

All he has now is the belief that his friends have to be around somewhere. And he’s determined to find them, they’re his top priority. In the meantime, however, he’s trying to help as many people as he is able escape ‘The Ones Above Us’, because he fully realizes that this world is corrupt, and that things will only get worse if nobody makes any move to stand up to it.

So currently, he’s barely getting by in his city. Something that gives him an advantage though, is the strength he seemed to inherit from his Dad. But besides that, he’s in just as bad a position as everyone else. It’s even difficult for him to connect to the internet most days.

An example of your Role-playing: “The thought’s crossed my mind,” he replies carefully, eyes trained on the person in front of him. He tried not to give anything away, still his hands at his side, refusing to so much as sweep his tongue across his lower lip. He couldn’t show just how nervous he truly was, so close to being caught. If that happened, then he would surely be executed on the spot, no questions asked, his very existence becoming nothing more than a hazy memory in the minds of those he’d previously interacted with. “But you know I’d never be that stupid.”

Things that you are not comfortable role-playing: Hardcore Gore, Smut of any kind. Any tags you might want triggered: N/A

Any other important information regarding you or your character?: John still has his windy powers (though not quite the existence hopping kind). He doesn’t use this if he can help it though, doing so would be too much of a risk. He could too easily be caught, and thus he’d only use it in the most dire of circumstances.

Muse applying for: hal Why you are choosing the character: i miss writing ais and hal is a more aggressive but easily riled sort of glados and i also miss writing her.  Muse’s Age and Where they live: age is a human concept to mark down the level of growth, then deterioration. Hal resides in cyberspace, and is thus ubiquitous, favoring the Tower. However, he lingers about Alpha when called on. The Resistance, or The Ones Above Us? (It’s alright if you are currently undecided, but we’d prefer if you took a side!): The Ones Above Us. Give a loose explanation of their back-story: Think like, Portal, except more rap music. Hal is a splinter of Dirk as he is a creation with a purpose to keep Dirk in touch with others, acting as his secretary of sorts prior to the game. Negative feelings had them drift apart, setting Hal down a long road of turbulent but enlightening self-discovering on his existence as well as his niche in the food chain. With the order the world is in now, he has since moved on and away from Dirk, keeping in touch for the sake of giving him a difficult time while taking a seat among The Ones Above Us, as if though he were a respected entity of his own.

He would at least think as much, even saying he is working with figures such as Alpha, though with the way he is treated and the work he’s being asked to do, he’s not made progress with becoming a properly respected entity.

An example of your Role-playing (One or two paragraphs): Lmao. 

“The good news is these were incredulously easy to make,” you report to your current conversational partner, a being who wished to purchase heavy weaponry for the sake of ‘crowd control’ with how rowdy the Resistance has been lately, “just time consuming due to the wait of pressurizing the gasses into such a compact space. In fact, I’ve already made two.” Due to the fact you were merely an omniscient voice in this dark room lit only by the screens you were utilizing for this meeting to show him schematics he probably didn’t understand, your patron seemed on edge about doing any sort of business with an entity they couldn’t physically damage in the event they came up short on money in an attempt to make off with what they could. They were all alone here with you. And with no way to bring harm to you as a display of dominance. What a powerless position to be in, you think to yourself in simulated pity. How terrible.

Of course, you don’t care at all as you go on to report, “The bad news is as I was transporting them to a holding chamber for you, I dropped the extra one–you did only make a down payment for one after all–and it slipped through the spaces to who knows where. Not even I know how deep that fall is, given how cavernous my little workspace is.” One of the screens clicks over to a simulated diagram of the fall, putting your home into perspective for him in terms of depth as the small red dot representing the dropped canister fell. This was a weapon of mass destruction by all intents and purposes, even if strictly biological. And your guest made it clear he understood the implications of that as he shifted his weight nervously, eyes wide while the screen played. “It hasn’t detonated yet and it’s been several seconds, so that’s a good indicator that maybe while you’re in this building with me, I may need to vent the facility in a moment…or now probably. Until the threat passes, at least. I suggest finishing your payment now, then evacuating.”

Coinciding with your words, a dull rumble sounded floors below your exchange, shaking the desolate building as a signal that your device had finally made substantial contact enough to detonate.

Whoops.

Small interactions like these were amusing sometimes, but you had so much more potential than handling deals and hustling money. LIttle jobs like this hindered your full potential. It’s honestly a mockery of what you were, always being put to work as if though you’ve not taken a step up from being some human’s personal secretary. Designing weapons was a very easy task and sometimes rewarding, but it wasn’t what you craved filling your time with. Fulfillment would have to be found elsewhere in due time, you supposed.

Things that you are not comfortable role-playing: Mind control, hypnotism. Sexual themes with Hal are null and void. Any tags you might want triggered: miND CONTROL, HYPNOTISM. Standard topics of discomfort, slavery, noncon, dubcon, gore.

Muse applying for: Mom Lalonde (rose’s mom) Why you are choosing the character: so i used to be @vodkatz and i really miss having a mom muse because she was so much fun Muse’s Age and Where they live: 16/eastern us The Resistance, or The Ones Above Us? (It’s alright if you are currently undecided, but we’d prefer if you took a side!): Resistance, although mostly involved in back-alley, low-key help like giving someone directions/places to stay and covering up tracks. A master of disguise and incredibly elusive.  Give a loose explanation of their back-story:

Roxanne Lalonde doesn’t remember much about the Before. She doesn’t like to remember, either. It’s a mess of blood and blue skies, so she keeps her gaze strictly forward, and strictly towards helping as many people as she can without ever really touching them. 

A Cheshire-cat sort of figure, she’s commonly found hiding out in the wrecked suburbs, getting forgetful with some of the booze she might have found squirreled away, but certainly not enough to keep her from moving on the next morning. She’s never visited one certain condo in the state of New York, and feels a sense of foreboding towards the state in general, yet she tends to stay in the Northeast, because simultaneously, she can’t bear to leave. 

Roxanne blogs through her phone, one that she’s had for awhile, and managed to rip/code out any tracking devices. It certainly helps that the phone is of almost ancient model by technological Ones-Above-Us standards today (a mere iphone 5, can you imagine.)

An example of your Role-playing (One or two paragraphs):

Slowly, she grinds the last of the bottle into the ground. Fingerprints absolutely can’t be shown, and just to ensure it, the small fire she lit under the crumbling roof swallows the last bit of evidence that she ever stopped. 

When Roxanne steps out into the dim sunlight, she throws up the stained hood and casts a fervent glance around her. The scarf she couldn’t part with, not for a million years, is wrapped around her waist under the hoodie. When she squints behind her as well, she sighs. It was just another day. Just another day of living.

If you could call it that, at least.

Things that you are not comfortable role-playing: 16 y/o, sooooo no smut Any triggers you might want tagged?: irl gore

A small list of bullet points for the new members. This is what happened in the timeline, before it died and then rose up like a phoenix (in very long strides and with a couple of characters not included, due to our hazy memory).

Dave finds nothing in the rubble of his old apartment complex. No signs of his brother or anything, documents stolen. Starts off with no lead.

Dave burns down Houston and leaves behind Dirk.

Dirk runs into Alpha and starts doubting himself and whether he has made the right choice, to which Dave immediately responds.

Dave goes back in Houston to bust out Dirk.

They make it out and start a long trek away from Houston, taking care of each other as they keep walking.

Dirk starts his secret meetings with Alpha, going with his wishes and playing along.

Rose moves out of New York to try and meet up with Dirk and Dave.

Dirk talks to Rose about Dave and sending him off to Rose, thinking she would be more capable of taking care of Dave than he was.

Dave finds out and leaves, going his own way.

Meanwhile Jade is talking and plotting with Dirk, quickly bonding and becoming fast friends. She’s stuck in Indianapolis, from which she later gets out, but not before blowing the place up.

Jade and Dirk reunite and begin working together.

[Things are a little muddle up after that]

Jade dies by an outsider’s hand and Dirk finds that out. He finds a place where he can bury her and takes custody over Bec.

Dave gives Dirk key to Atlanta [I think it was Atlanta], so he can retrieve everything important.

Dave also entrusts Dirk with vials he managed to get from TOAU, mind controlling serums, etc.

Dirk retrieves a lot of information from Atlanta, before the city is blown up by TOAU.

Dirk sets up a mission with the Resistance members he managed to get, and invades Topeka successfully, making it their HQ.

In the meantime, TOAU manages to find Jade’s corpse and dig it up, taking it with them and bringing her back as an android, working under Alpha.

Soon enough though, Dirk manages to bring her out of their conniving hands and he manages to get her to join the Resistance.

Dirk has a fight with Bro after he tries acquiring more information about TOAU, only to get his arm cut off by Bro.

Sebastian ( apendaye ) hooks Dirk up with a mechanical arm and a lot of other supplies. A key character (albeit outsider) to the Resistance, since a lot of weapons that are supplied to them come from the mercenary.

Dirk signs a deal with a God of War ( agapesisgamin ) and becomes his Champion, granting him a lot of powers doing so.

Dirk goes after TOAU elite and higher ups and slowly kills them all off.

Meanwhile Dave is working on resetting the timeline and getting everything prepared.

Final showdown between Dirk and Alpha, where Dirk kills off Alpha.

Dave kills off Bro, trying to eradicate him from the timeline completely.

Dave does the reset, but it fails.

Jade’s real body comes back and she is no longer an android, but it is due to her body glitching out.

The higher ups Dirk killed have been brought back.
