Aw man my brother/sister/fellow, you truly do wound me. Equius based content creators have existed far before Mr. Zahhak went mainstream! We were sparse,admittedly, and as still not as powerful as he bases around other (admittedly more relevant) trolls, but we have existed back in those dark day of Equiqui, and it would seem that this new golden age of Zahhak has finally brought us to light! Praise be to the b100b100ds my brother and sister Homestucks! Praise be!

I’m not saying there weren’t any, I’m saying the same thing you are. That they were sparse. But not anymore

The Zahhaks will stay in the Void no longer!

(Different Anon) Does it really matter "who liked him first"? You can like him just as much, no matter when you started.

It really doesn’t.

Troll mouths are blood colored i think.

Images would disagree but this is Homestuck we’re talking about

Didn't Hussie state that the veins of troll eyes are the colour of their horns? (Seen when Terezi gets he sight back and her eyes are "blood"shot orange.)

Yes

Did Equius smile when he died because he got off on it or something? Or was it because Gamzee once said making Equius smile would be the biggest miracle and Equius wanted to make sure Gamzee got that miracle? I can't really remember. :V

He smiled because he was pleased to fill his role in the hemospectrum

aka, being oppressed by a higherblood

and that Gamzee was finally accepting his role as a highblood instead of just goofing off as usuall

I once heard a headcanon that said that psionic trolls have eyelashes in their blood color (like Vriska and Aradia) while non-psionics have plain black lashes (like Terezi and Nepeta and Kanaya) and obviously we haven't seen any evidence of that with male trolls but then again stylistically male trolls just aren't drawn with them

Interesting ideas

~Mod T

as a troll's lips, tongue, the inside of their mouth, and arguably their fingernails are either black or a grey variant, it can be assumed that the waterline and inner portions of the eye would also be naturally black.

Troll fingernails are yellow.

Except Vriska’s, hers are painted blue.

Are relatively new to the fandom?

~:this is all from my perspective, it might have been different, but this is what it was for me:~

Because a year ago next to no one liked Equius and I was teased because he was my favourite troll.  There was very little fan art of him. The only time he seemed to only show up in the fandom was in Octopimp’s video. But everything changed after the “with Equius” week tumblr had (last july I think). And now everyone loves him. And I’m really happy the he and Nep are loved so much now.

What if Karkat is angry because he put on eyeliner and it turned out to be permanent and now he's stuck with it for the rest of his life?

That would be hilarious
