I think it’s illegal that we never get to see the alpha kids fuck around with the alchemiter and make shitty outfits so, here’s Dirk rockin’ the Snazzy Puppeteer Suit. Made with combining Lil’ Cal and one of his Bro’s Old Suits. It’s a true crime against fashion.
Honestly, this was fun to design. I’ll probably be making more in the future.

Fuck Dowels. Like they were the most unintuitive, meaningless, pointless mechanic in the first half of Homestuck easily. Like why couldn't it have just been punch cards, put cards in Alchemiter. Why that whole extra step. Why not have the Cruxtruder extrude a disc or card or something. Like I refuse to believe SBURB actually worked, because how tf did anyone enter at all without a Walkthrough. How did anyone figure that shit out.

======> Kanaya: Combine work clothes with that dress you made for Vriska.
WORK CLOTHES && FAIRY DRESS = FAIRY GRUB MOTHER DRESS
You make the FAIRY GRUB MOTHER DRESS! Vriska surely won't mind if you keep this. You're the one who made the original fairy dress for her, anyway! But... ugh, the shoes clash horridly with the dress, and your makeup. Guess it's time you got out the eyeliner that you never use... but wait, you don't have any red lipstick!
======> Kanaya: Combine lipstick and red shoes.
GREEN AND BLACK LIPSTICK || RED FAIRY SHOES = RED AND BLACK LIPSTICK
You make a tube of RED AND BLACK LIPSTICK, and apply the red side. You also take the time to put on the proper eyeliner to match the shoes. Much better!
======> Kanaya: Combine shoes with dress.
RED FAIRY SHOES || FAIRY GRUB MOTHER DRESS = GREEN FAIRY SHOES
Now we're talking. If you could switch your makeup style with your WARDROBIFIER, you'd be able to put both pairs of shoes in circulation. But, sadly, it does not work like that.
-------------------------------
We were ROBBED of a troll alchemy fashion montage. Especially when Kanaya exists.
Sure, a lot of the trolls wouldn't even think about doing this. But cmon. You can't tell me Kanaya wouldn't. Perhaps the other trolls did a little bit of the same? Karkat did alchemize a sickle based on his favorite TV show and then kept using it despite it not being the most powerful weapon he could get.

I went back to homestuck to see the difference between && alchemization and || alchemization and the difference is with && you are stacking two cards on top of each other and punching in combinations that are a mix of the two, while with || you are instead punching one card with all the holes of the other, fusing them another way
It’s basically && fills missing spaces and || makes more spaces
I love it when authors fill their stories with complex gimmicks like this. Really heightens the worldbuilding

While I work on commissions send in alchemy outfit requests for the alpha kids, we were robbed of so much. (You can also send in an artists design for me to sprite, just link the original post.)

CAA: all except f0r me
CAA: this is just as well i supp0se
CAA: what w0uld we even d0 with all th0se c0pies anyway
I dunno, but I’m sure I can think of something.
They’re robots, so maybe you could download all their memories into your body. Then they’d all be able to survive - and you’d be clued into the events of their alternate timelines.
CAA: we w0uld return t0 the site 0f 0ur hatching [...]
CAA: where we w0uld hide
CAA: amidst a veil depleted by the reck0ning
CAA: and wait
CAA: drifting in the wide 0rbit 0f 0ur s00n t0 be null sessi0n
This session is about to become null.
I’m desperately trying to find any interpretation other than the obvious one, but I think it’s futile.
Sgrub is preparing to erase the trolls.
CAA: banished fr0m the universe we left behind
And there’s no way back.
The Exiles got out, but I guess once the Reckoning ends, those portals are closed for good. The trolls are trapped in a burning house.
CAA: and yet in being denied the ultimate reward
Go on.
CAA: we w0uld be barred fr0m entry
Sollux represents duality, and we know his red-blue ~ATH script refers to two universes. If we’re zooming into the other side of his shades, we’re clearly talking about a second universe, paired with the trolls.
It’s pretty obvious that this is the kids’ universe. I never really thought about it, but I’d sort of been assuming that both planets were in the same universe - since in Hivebent’s intro, the Earth was stated to not.... yet......... exist........
Wait a fucking second. Oh my god.
...oh my god?
Oh my god?
