#s29

Sebastian Goder hat in seinen Zwanzigern eine Frau kennengelernt: Julia Tielmann. Sie haben sich ineinander verliebt und haben zwei Kinder gezeugt: Luis, nach Julias Lieblings-Cousin, der in Frankreich lebt, und seine kleine Schwester Franziska, die Sebastian nach Franz benannt hat, mit dem er seit seiner Zeit auf Einstein befreundet ist.

Julia Tielmann ist an Krebs erkrankt und später leider gestorben. Da war Luis sieben und seine Schwester vier. Full-House-mäßig ist Franz in das Haus eingezogen, in dem Sebastian mit seiner Familie lebt und unterstützt seinen besten Freund. Luis und Franziska wissen zwar, wer ihre Mama ist, nehmen aber Franz als zweiten Vater wahr, der auch nichts dagegen hat.

Und manchmal – wenn sie unter sich sind und sowas machen wie Fußball gucken, scheint es so, als würden sich die besten Freunde, die sich immer als heterosexuell verstanden haben, einander annähern.

The Identity V design of the day is:

Patient: Art Exhibition Visitor (B-Tier)!

My intuition was that each blood color was rarer than the one ‘below’ it, with a large peasant class supporting the wealthy elite. They’re called the 1% for a reason, after all. 

But jade - which sounds very rare - is only in the middle of the spectrum. The demographics here clearly aren’t as simple as I’d thought.  

As such you are one of the few who could be selected and raised by a VIRGIN MOTHER GRUB, an event so rare as to elude documented precedent.

There’s no precedent for this situation? On a planet with millennia of history? 

I theorized before that Kanaya might be royalty, but I think I was aiming too low - Kanaya is the kind of troll that legends are written about. She’s absolutely extraordinary, just like all the other Players. 

[...] and though her life would be short, in time you would assure her of progeny.

Progeny, eh? So is Kanaya going to make more trolls, or more Mother Grubs? 

Either way, she’s going to have access to an ecto-lab soon. This shouldn’t be a difficult promise to keep. 

You are one of the few of your kind whose affection for the aesthetic strongly overpowers instinctive regard for the utilitarian.

The rare troll who does not, in fact, think fashion is stupid. 

The black shirts were getting a little old, so it was about time someone bucked the trend. 

The technology and indeed the hive itself were all recovered from the ruins nearby when you were very young. The seed of your hive was deployed on the volcanic rocks beneath the sand with the assistance of your lusus and her remarkable burrowing skills, and you have lived there happily together since.

Jade’s Sburb House is one of the oldest mysteries in the comic. Its answer generates an entirely new mystery - what the hell these houses are for - but it’s still nice to have it solved. 

>Kanaya: Equip chainsaw.

You are quite sure there is no CHAINSAW leaning on that bookshelf.

There is however a tube of LIPSTICK on the floor.

It’s been a hot minute since we last saw this gag.  

Problem Sleuth ended over fifteen months before this panel dropped - which, in Homestuck time, is an eternity. Was Hussie feeling a little nostalgic, all of a sudden?

>Kanaya: Fine, equip that then.

Alright, let's settle down. No need to get hysterical.

Heh.

Oh, there goes your WARDROBIFIER again. Never a dull moment in fashion when the randomized cycle is on.
