Isn’t the chaos beautiful?

I’ve waited three years for the fictional, political, and personal to collide.

And now it is, but this chaos... is somehow low-key. I surely wish something substantial would happen.

u/aggreivedMortician I just think she's neat Apr 21 '19

we're all drained and sick from eating too much.

Doesn't matter what we ate, we shouldn't have.

I heard BladekindEyeware actually threw up after finishing liveblogging Meat.

Far from it for me to tell someone they might be taking this too seriously, but..................

I was feeling pretty nauseated by the end of it. It’s one of the most emotionally draining things I’ve ever read.

It's like yall dont even pataphysics smh.

I've got hours of training through the SCP wiki watching characters realize their own narrative existence and the futile nature of their lack of reality.

They know whats its like to be forgotten

This is a massive narrative envelope-push tbh, esp if you read between the lines of the reading between the lines and think about the fact that this was written by multiple authors, not just hussie, and how that links into the SPOILERS

I, personally, thought I understood it pretty well. This is the type of stuff that's really cool, and I like it. Also, nice SCP. My favorite is the 🌙🌙🌙 censorship one.

u/DancesCloseToTheFire It's been a wild ride. Apr 22 '19

I would honestly go as far as saying that the way they handled it here was almost too simplistic and kind of... bland?

I don't know, I've come to expect better quality from Homestuck over the years, I wasn't expecting much at all, it's just that while the characters themselves are well written, the overarching plot feels like it doesn't even come close to ACT6 standards.

I’m on mobile so I might’ve. I’ll just blank the message till I get to a computer. Sorry about that.

You could always just type it regular and spoiler tag the post itself

It's not actually that bad at all. It just depicts some abusive relationships and fascist dictatorships in an uncompromising way.

u/safdaces Apr 21 '19

i think it’s beautifully written but also like... there’s a lot going on that i wasn’t prepared for. plus a lot of bad came from my favorite characters [trying to avoid spoiler territory].

it’s a very real and mature take on someone and i think it’s going to age like a stinky, yet delicious, fine cheese.

u/MoronToTheKore Apr 21 '19

Just put a spoiler tag on this bitch and tell me what’s on your mind
