Greetings! this is my silly little place

in which i will only post the mania-driven ramblings of my postcanon deprived brain and maybe a coherent statement regarding HS characters or the narrative. or Whatever it’s not like i get to choose what to obsess over for a few hours until Something that could *possibly* be worth mentioning decides to make itself apparent

I like how the ambiguity here makes it sound like Silas is calling Tavvy a troll. Reminds me of this page where upon switching from Tavvy to Harry the narration emphasises that he’s ‘attending human school in the heart of the human kingdom’ like it’s suggesting Tavvy isn’t very human. And also Imode’s unspecified clown emoji is neat. Which 🤡 are we talking about?

The ’Vrissy = Aranea but attempts to emulate Vriska’ trail of thought has led me to think that maybe her “attraction” to Tavvy is aesthetic. As in she’s a nerd who feels obligated to act like a rebel and Tavvy is a rebel who feels obligated to act like a nerd

Ooo wait Jake getting his clothes blown to smithereens might mean he’s getting a new outfit. Awesome

Returning to the topic of shoes for dicks:

Cobbler (shoemaker) and milliner (hatmaker) are grouped together here because they’re both things that go on the “head”, adding onto Harry’s preoccupation with the head / “head”. The rest of this paragraph relates to sex too.

Dabble means to ‘make wet by sprinkling a liquid’, so him dabbling in 'accessorization’ (things applied to the dick) is a joke about him using a condom. A 'bit’ is also a tool applied to the head of a drill to bore holes, 'whizz’ suggests fast movement and the needle and thread relating to sewing / sowing, once again evoking condom usage.

'Amateur productions’ is teen pregnancy, and their unappreciation of Harry’s accessories is a distaste for condoms. It seems Harry wants to prevent unwanted birth due to John abandoning him.

And as Imode says here, Harry isn’t scared of being in public so much as he is speaking in public, and speaking is birthing the baby. It’s shown in this panel too, as he nervously stares at the microphone held up to him. Harry’s reluctance to perform in productions despite wanting to is because he’s scared of accidentally creating a baby that he doesn’t want. Avril putting child-star together also makes me think the stars he’s associated with are supposed to be children. Makes sense to me, since the most notable stars in homestuck are suns, a homophone of son.

And of course within the star (sun) embedded closet is a figurative son embedded with a little star of his own, who has also been neglected. Harry then, ironically, decides to become involved with his bunny again at the same time John decides to become involved in his son’s life. Repeating cycles…
