Forgotten Homestuck Facts

Do you know if the zodiac signs the trolls have are chosen by them, or given to them? I don't know if it was ever explained. I've checked MSPA Wiki and couldn't find anything.

Where is it said that John is allergic to peanuts? I was just wondering.

It’s in that one part where you walk around the house as John, if you inspect a jar of gag peanuts he says that he’s allergic or something to that effect.

My scanner isn't working, are you sure a picture wouldn't work?

Don’t fret, all I have to do is publish this ask and someone else will take it upon themselves to send in a scan.

Now we wait.

Not everyone has the book, and not everyone will read the authors notes if they do. I say it's forgotten because of those reasons. And I have a scanner so that will work better. I'll do it now. c:

Scratch that Bardy Boy, this guy is on it already.

I actually have the book and can attest to that. He does make mention of the little monsters poster as inspiration for the trolls later on.

That would be appreciated.

Is it really a forgotten fact if it is in the book though? And scanning the page or just using a citation might be better. If that person is wrong or making things up, this one isn't, someone else with the book will be quick to correct them I'm sure.

Hussie got inspiration for making the trolls before he even knew he was going to have trolls in the story by the "Little Monsters" movie poster John got for his birthday. I don't have a source because I have the Homestuck book and it's in the author notes, unless I can take a picture of it?

Yeah I guess taking a picture of it and adding it to the post would count as a source.

Unless someone else knows a better way.

Oops, didn’t see this until now.

The reason is that a very large chunk of the fandom skipped the intermission, so it’s easy to see why facts about it get left in the dust.

people ALREADY forgot that kankri doesn't swear??
