this post is about @superxstarzz combined classpects, specifically the classes. if you don’t know what i’m talking about, then go check it out!
warning: veeerrry long post. i will be talking a lot and it might not make sense because it’s two in the morning right now.
a pretty long while ago now (probably around october of last year), i had the idea to get super autistic about superxstarzz (aka casey)’s combined classes. since the combined classes are derived from, well, combining the normal classes, the best place i could think to start was by simplifying the function of the canon classes into just a few words. here’s my list below:
maid - mend self
page - grow self, utilize in self
mage - self suffers from; suffers for self
knight - defend others
rogue - distribute to others
sylph - meddle with others
seer - understand/see for others
thief - steal for self
heir - self becomes
bard - invert in self
prince - destroy in others (i know that bards destroy too, but princes destroy more actively than bards)
witch - manipulate others
with this initial task out of the way, figuring out the combinations of the classes became simply figuring out how to combine the functions. this took me only a couple hours of wasted class time, so if you’re a fan of superxstarzz’s combined classpects, feel free to find your favorite class and please enjoy my interpretation of its function!
(note: descriptions will be formatted with the two base classes that combine to make the class, the name of the class, its whole function, and one word to describe its function)

It's so nice being on tumblr because you don't even have to make your own post but people would still follow you anyways if you're good at rebloging posts they like
obviously most things on Alternia are designed in a particularly slimy, chitinous way that gives them a uniformly alien (is that oxymoronic?) look, but I’m wondering if it’s more than a little conspicuous that a troll’s recuperacoon is basically identical to their computer.
I’ve broken down the basics of Alternian computing before, but the fact that the pus used in their insectoid computers seems to be the same stuff they sleep in has never been able to properly explain itself. the official line is that “the relaxing ooze helps assuage the terrible visions of blood and carnage that plague the dark subconscious of [trollkind]”; but considering Alternia’s governing class seem to have a vested interest in giving their subjects nightmares, we have to assume there is some misdirection happening here.
what has freshly occurred to me is that Jade, ostensibly the human with the most troll-like lifestyle, has a computerised bed of her own… and indeed one intended to monitor and affect the way she dreams.
it was already in the back of my mind years ago, writing what probably turned out to be my first ever proper Homestuck analysis, that there were insidious undertones to the fact that Alternia’s green slime of patriarchy seeps into every crack, right down to the beds the empire’s children sleep in. in Dave’s words, “your grandpa was a sick fuck why would he build a voyeurbot for a little girl”: it probably goes without saying that the subjugglators are kind of sick fucks for building voyeur puppets for little children too! the puppet as a voyeurbot is a well established tool in Dave’s own guardian’s repertoire (…I’m just now realising Dave is secretly relating to Jade with that line), and it says a lot that Dirk’s ultimate voyeurbot (slash fondlebot) took on a form almost identical to that of Jade’s (with Equius even trying a little bit of lowblood-puppeting of his own using another robot of the same type).
it must also be remembered that sopor slime is drugs, drugs is candy, and candy only serves to hide the grisly truth from the partaker. perhaps rather than “assuaging” the horrors of the troll’s dark subconscious, being hooked up to the slime merely masks the true nature of what has been placed there…
this brings to mind Karkat’s strange moment of seemingly unfounded paranoia about the Viewer, accompanied, in fact, by his own spontaneous voyeuristic fantasies about a certain little girl. the takeaway here is of course that the darkness lurking in the troll subconscious is none other than the Viewer, which is obviously true; all trollkind are merely the pawns of Lord English, the ultimate Reader-Author of their reality. but possibly also implicit is that if the Viewer lurks in the subconscious of every troll, then every troll is, themselves, deep down, a Viewer. which is also literally true! as the trolls watching the humans’ game unfold from their meteor laboratory act as yet another of the comic’s many audience stand-ins.
or in Persona Alchemy terms… just as the author of Homestuck imbued every character with an aspect of himself, every single troll in Lord English’s domain contains a little bit of ‘Lord English-ness’. in essence making them their own voyeurs, in the same way Jade is both the voyeurbot and the little girl?

I'll litterally answer anything. Please
"Are you a Homestuck", no, I was like 25 when Homestuck debuted, so I don't have the excuse of the comic's fandom being a formative part of my identity. You're talking to a guy who has an original printing of The Starlight Calliope on the bookshelf over his bed; I'm something worse.
lmao yeah
Anyways, I would like to bring attention to the simple fact of: if you are having trouble classpecting yourself there is a 100% chance you are not a Prince, Thief, or Seer.
There IS a good chance you are a Page, Rogue, or Sylph.
