Forgotten Homestuck Facts

Ok I get that post-scratch John made the alpha kids, but when, why, and how did he make them?

Anonymous

Pre-scratch John made the alpha kids towards the end of Act 4.

Ok lets see if I got this straight... On the ship JOhn's denizen knew about original John's time adventures so it killed retcon John (and davesprite) so there wouldnt be two Johns, leaving Jade alone for three years where she goes to sleep and meets an alternate Callie who tells her stuff. Much later Jane kills Roxy before Vriska puts her to sleep. Original Roxy and John will now enter the retcon universe with LOWAS

Yeah, pretty much.

Meta question: How in the world do you remember so much about Homestuck? Did you major in MSPAology in college?

Gosh I wish I could major in that. I just have a good memory and I usually check the comic/wiki before I saying anything I’m not 100% positive about.

About the Gamzee's Dream Self thing, isn't it implied that Gamzee doesn't die in any Timeline, Dream Self or not? The only Timeline where we've seen that happen didn't even become doomed, it was erased from ever being by John's retconning. And the lack of any Gamzee Ghost in the Dream Bubbles (Jadesprite showed to have been in the Bubbles it's to be assumed they have separate ghosts) would indicate it's still. Sort of perhaps drifting in the Furthest Ring? You can't keep the clown down. Sadly.

All ghost Gamzee are in the same place, a bubble separated from all the rest, all of them lying in a great giant horn pile and eating pie.

Do you think things could have turned out differently had Gamzee been the one paralyzed? (Asking for a friend whose working on an AU)

If Gamzee had been in Tavros’s place and thrown off the cliff he probably wouldn’t have been paralyzed since he’s a highblood and more durable to damage. If that had happened though the cycle of revenge wouldn’t have started so Aradia wouldn’t have died, Terezi wouldn’t have gone blind and Vriska wouldn’t have lost her arm and eye and Tavros, obviously wouldn’t have lost his ability to walk.

Do you need to complete ectobiology to win sburb?

Only if you were created through ectobiology. If you were born like the Cali’s then you don’t have to.

Did Tavros ever reject Gamzee's offer to make out or…?

Wasn't it proven that Jade's narcoleptic fits were Vriska seeing what her mind control powers could do to humans?

Yes

how did Gamzee get to Earth in order to raise Caliborn

Anonymous

The Cali’s were raised on the meteor on Earth in the distant future so Gamzee just had to fast forward along the meteor’s timeline to reach them.

Why exactly does John have these retcon powers? I mean It's not a godteir thing right?

He got them by touching a very powerful juju
