Gamzee's tears have been finally explained by today's update...
*spoiler*
Arquiusprite is part of Lord English!
The Ride is like the Warhammer of Zillyhoo, you are required to weep at its glory
It was said in canon that he started eating the slime because he had nobody tell him it wasn't healthy. Goatdad was off at sea too often to be a good lusus for him. It was stated at page 003917 of mspa.
gamzee totaly regrets killing equius now
As much as I wanted Equiusprite with only Equius this is perfect
I listen to this, S- Jane: Engage, and Elevatorstuck all at the same time. It sounds demonic.
well what would you expect you're listening to three different songs at the same time
Hussie made Gamzee cry so it could be symbolic and he is crying because it was so beautiful
This was legit the best page I have ever seen in my entire life. I will never regret listening to Horsechestra or this page on repeat ever. This is all I've ever needed to see in my life.
Hussie's Magna Opus right here
I feel like a lot of people sort of, undersell the significance of this moment. So let me share my thoughts.
Right off the bat, THIS is the ONLY moment in the entirety of HS where we can see Gamzee WILLINGLY shedding tears. Maybe he's in some kind of pain? But the point is, it's not physical like getting shot or beaten by Caliborn, or being thrown in a fridge. This is an entirely emotional response from him.
As to why? I don't think we will EVER get a definitive answer, from Hussie or anybody else. It could be that he was witnessing the birth of a part of LE, which is what all of his life is all about, so it's a religious moment for him. Or maybe a momentary lapse of clarity took over his brain, and Gamzee realized what he had done to Equius in the past. Or perhaps he's just so MOVED by the MAJESTY of ARquius that he couldn't help himself.
Whatever the reason may be, the point I'm trying to make here, is that nobody was forcing him to do this. Which is a big deal because who knows how many beings are pulling his strings for what causes.
Gamzee's mindscape is a maze full of cosmic beings/mindcontrolling dead ghosts/megalomaniacal alien children/other omnipotent beings trying to wrestle control of his body and the things he does.
In ADDITION to having brainrot problems due to sopor abuse, potentially his abandonment issues with his goatdad, and a whooole lot of other stuff that his fans keep reaching for, regardless of their actual basis in canon.
But EVEN with ALL of this bullshit, he was still moved so much, by this ONE moment, that effectively, he broke free from them, ONLY for this moment. At least that's how I see it. And I think that is some truly powerful stuff.
While Yes this is an importart moment for Gamzee's Character and that's a fact, i think this Moment is even more important to Equius and Hal Characters. Arquiusprite is nowdays one of my favorite characters of Homestuck cause he is simply a fantastic way to Give Hal a Body he loves and Make Equius Feel Good with himself and Truly Happy for once. Arquiusprite should be treated indeed as it's own character yes but I can't not see the general meaning of his existence for his componenets. Also i like to think that Gamzee is Crying cause he finally made Equius Smile and that would have been the greatest miracle he ever witnessed
@@Giammeh well he already made equius smile when he strangled him to death
I wonder if Arquiussprite is ashamed of the color his sprite gives because it's the color of mutant bloods
Nyreus Veihah If he'd been prototyped into a fuschia sprite he would have made the second prototyping be sweat :B
His words on this:
"100k how red I am, dude I'm so red, how sick is that
It's
Deplorable?
Ill, dog. I'm basically titillated here
Are you scoping this grody [fucking] debasement
That [shit] ain't right
Makes a man wanna holler improprieties, do you feel me?"
Since I read HS on my tablet [S]s don't work so I had to look this up and watch it here. It was worth it
" iF i CoUlD mAkE yOu SmIlE iT'd Be ThE bEsT fUcKiN mIrAcLe I eVeR dId PaRt Of. "
I-I C-CAN'T ST-STOP CR-CRYING. I-IT'S JUST...SO..BOOTIFUL
One of the greatest mind blows of Homestuck.
SO MANY HORSES but that's just equis and I'm surprised he isn't sweating by now
ØhmIfeels... Gamzee... He's sø sad... He's feelIng sø sørry... Feeeeeels! *gøes søb In a cørner*
This is amazing, Simply perfect *tears up a little*
This is the song of my people.
It would be only rude as if to not stare longingly as he rides with his wonderful array of mechanical hoof beasts, even a tear starts fill your eye
That would be so beautiful and hilarious at the same time.
Well, there's the other canon ones, the [S] Rides featuring Rose in one, and Roxy in the other. If you type "[S] Ride Homestuck" in the TH-cam search bar, you can find loads of fan ones. Like, [S] Calliope: Ride, [S] Dirk: Ride (there are two different ones of this), [S] Equius: Ride, [S] Eridan: Ride, aaaand... that's all I can find for now. I think there's still some others out there though!
The first time I watched this flash, I didn't make it to the end. SO GLAD I REWATCHED
the virgin gamzee vs the chad arquiusprite
very magestic
No, Equiusprite was before the Auto Responder was prototyped. Since then canon has always been referring to this Sprite as Arquiusprite, like in the dialogues with Dirk and the other B2 Sprites.
try playing this song with [S] GAME OVER on mute... it's amazing.
Sweet update. Thanks for bringing it to TH-cam
Ah the wonders of Homestuck c:
My theme when I finally move to America one of these days.
This is beautiful
the end of this flash is amazing
i found this by accident but thank you.
ITS GLORIOUS
i love arquius so much
I wonder what this scene looked like after the retcon
Bringing them back this way is an attempt at redemption huh..
I shed a 1000 tears
I love him so much. WHY AREN'T YOU REAL?!?!
I will never be the same again.
This make just feel STRONG ¡¡
The end of this makes me feel bad for gamzee every single time..
gamzee no!
Oh man I didn't watch this all the way through o3o
*gross sobbing*
The soundfont reminds me of ff6 way too much, I love it
gotta fuckening love dat ar doh
He killed Equis even though he never would normally want to hurt any of his friends.
D---> yes...
D---> YES.
1.)1 why
He is capricious. This means he is unpredictable. Plus he was only harmless when he was stoned. When Dave sent him that video of ICP, he viewed it as blasphemy, this is ontop of him running out of sopor slime pies and sobering up, showing his true nature as the descendant of the High Subjugglator. Very violent, murderous, plus he had no Moirail at the time to calm him down. He is probably crying in the video because of his capricious nature. aka he did it for no understandable reason.
Thanks :D
👌perfect👌
it happened. i found it.
NIEGH
@Derek Wilkinson If this was the case, my life would be complete.
Well that's a good point, but it still doesn't disprove what I said. He could have started eating it knowing it calmed down the minds of the trolls when they slept, so it might calm him down when awake too if he ate it. I hope the Huss clears shit up, but I'm sticking to Gamzee regrets hurting his friends.
Also I don't feel bad for gamzee
NEIGH
Yeeeeahhh, I don't remember this
Shit, sorry, my comments thing didn't update right and I got here WAY late. But I still think you're wrong. Even if he is unpredictable and his mood swings around, why do you think he started to eat slime in the first place? I think it was because he found out after an accidental mouthful that it stopped him from being that descendant. Trying to escape so he wouldn't harm his friends and be so angry all the time. I still thing he was crying out of guilt. Even unpredictable people have emotions
oooooommmmmmgggg
What if this was the very last page of Homestuck.
can you give me a link to some "Ride" videos?
Yes, at ?s=6&p=007555
Neigh.
why does gamzee cry anyway?
So why is gamzee is crying ? I know killed him but, still does that mean he sorry
neigh
:')
Was... this... in homestuck? O_o
