I've never read Homestuck but there's a type of media that I call "a Homestuck" and I think it's a useful categorization. The main criteria are:

Anyway, once in webtoon comments section I saw a theory that Will could have died of dehydration/depletion, and this explained his choice of the last meal - water and fruits. Now that we know that he lived during Dust Bowl, it makes even more sense.

Karkat’s “I GAVE YOUR UNIVERSE CANCER” is a really succinct summary of his role in the story that gets me every time. Like, there’s the literal interpretation, Bilious Slick is terminal, the very world you inhabit is unhealthy and you must escape. This body of the frog is loosely paralleled with Jade’s own body, which doubtless has cancer itself from her interactions with Bec and haphazard handling of uranium. But there’s also the psychological take, where Karkat, an embodiment of self-loathing, is overtly confesses to being the source of Jade’s self-loathing (universes also represent consciousness!). This is true not only because of his role as a manifestation, but because he is an internet bully who has been damaging Jade’s self esteem for years.
