jokes related to the personal classpects/blood castes of a bunch of my friends
SO. A LITTLE BIT OF CONTEXT.
a bunch of my friends, including myself, are fans of homestuck. a great number of us also happen to share personal hero titles (or alternate titles, but headcanons on how SBURB decides what hero title you get is a whole can of worms i'm not opening right now) with canon homestuck characters. we're all also decently versed in the blood caste system and are all aware of both our castes, as well as the privileges (or lack thereof) said castes would afford us.
among the people that actively joke about this we have a prospit-leaning seer of blood, a derse-leaning heir of time whose backup classes are knight of time and prince of heart, a witch of space who's literally named jade and who has possible backup classes of maid of space and maid of life, a derse-leaning sylph of space, and a derse-leaning knight of blood. i myself am a derse-leaning heir of doom with mage of doom as a class backup.
to recap for the non-homestucks finding themselves reading through this, that's kankri vantas down to the dream moon, a non-canon title with dave and dirk strider as backups, jade harley in real life with backups of porrim maryam and jane crocker, kanaya maryam, and karkat vantas. for myself, either mituna or sollux captor.
so naturally we poke fun at each other for it!
HERO TITLE-SPECIFIC JOKES
- finding ways to remind the heir of time that he's basically dave strider in real life
- specific to feffol and i, just saying shit in mituna's and kankri's quirks because the fact that the two of us have the titles and lunar sways that we do, how we're both the way that we are, and the fact that by a simple stroke of luck, we happened to find and befriend each other is such a silly thing to the both of us
- less of a joke, more of an activity: canon handle memos, where a bunch of us of us grab matching canon handles and just do tier lists while unseriously roleplaying. usually it's just three of us doing sollux, karkat, and kanaya. it's such a simple thing but it's so much fun. i'll include some funny screenshots from those memos at the bottom of this page.
HEMOCASTE-SPECIFIC JOKES THAT ONLY MAKE SENSE
- sprite and i using the power of highblood solidarity to override onyx's vote in phasmophobia because we don't want to play challenge mode or on a certain map
- lovingly bullying a fushciablood in our server for being at the top
- clown jokes. i do this the most.
- calling casteism over minor inconveniences
as promised: honorable mentions from the canon handle shitpost memos:
in short: we're all nerds and i love my friends very much
