    I will show up just in time for the reception, apologize profusely, hand over my gift and then proceed to eat all the cheeses and meats on the hors d'oeuvres table and then hang out in the corner like I'm a badass loner who didn't just finish stuffing my fat face

    Oh and I will dance for the Cha-Cha Slide

    Because all weddings, and in fact all dance-oriented gatherings, must play the Cha-Cha Slide, and all in attendance must dance

    It is a biological imperative

    Mm... Yes, the first and second are a bit sloppy. The third is slightly better. Not sure what you were going for with the fourth, trying to add your own design maybe?

    Whether you're coloring or recoloring, you have to respect the structure of the sprite. What you're seeing aren't separate colors, but shades of the same color, meant to represent the reflection of light on the sprite's surface. So if you're going to change a color, you have to change several at once. Dratini is blue and white; change the white and you have to change the gray, too. You also have to take outlines into consideration when they're present, as usually they're not quite black but a very dark shade of the color closest to them.

    One thing you definitely want to avoid is using sharp colors for things like fur or skin. It just doesn't look right. Sharp colors are for specific purposes, like neon lights or glossy surfaces, and even then they should be used sparingly. Have you ever seen a mouse with traffic-light-red fur? It would probably hurt your eyes. Whites and blacks are tricky; you can use them, but it's much easier to use super-dark and super-light grays.

    As for making your own designs... well, that's pretty advanced. Might wanna stick to the basics for now, even if it's something you're interested in pursuing.

    DOUBLE GODDAMN ENGLISH

    SORT-OF CONFIRMED: From the silhouettes, Rose and Dave's counterparts do not appear to be genderswaps. Which probably means they're Mom and Bro, respectively. Unless they are Momdave and Brorose!!! Hahaha, what Also no I don't think they're going to be Rose's and Dave's grandparents because that would mean we're bringing in characters which haven't been established and that would be Bad Hussie Worst Writer.
    I used to have Pesterchum but I could never decide on a name (LOL WHAT A SURPRISE). I will be getting it again soon, though, and I will post my handle and add everyone when I do. c:

    Oh gosh, if I get art/music support I will flip my sh#% harder than you knew was possible. Like seriously? Make my dreams happen a little harder guys <3

    I have FL Studio but I have ZERO decent samples. Except... like, I can make Pokemon-style music. xD I can draw, barely, but my designs are terrible. I can no doubt come up with stuff for everyone to do though. Like there will definitely be room for art/music assets if that's a possibility. Just don't let me get too excited and overwork anyone...

    Yeah he has, and he ran it by me. I like the ideas I've heard, but I want to make sure we're all on the same page, so don't get too far ahead of me until a thread exists. Which it probably won't for a little while because this is the busiest part of the year for me. Sorry guys :c

    IMPORTANT NOTICE: GM is in possession of a large stockpile of warm fuzzy bear hugs which are distributed liberally upon request. c:

    There is always a First Guardian, as far as I can tell. Their purpose and general aim in each session clearly differs. I'm still not sure what I'm going to do with that, but there will be one.

    As for the second point... I dunno, I'm having trouble deciding. It's the same trouble as with the powers and titles. I think I might decide the Lands on my own, though, but they will correspond to the players' powers and titles, which I intend to discuss at length with the players when they submit a character sheet.

    Thanks for reminding me about that, by the way. To prospective players: If you're already dreaming up a character and you have a power and title in mind, keep it. It won't be on the character sheet, but I want to have a dialogue about it with everyone so as to make sure everyone gets something that will challenge and empower them, and something which compliments their characters and teammates well.

    Oh god you guys ; w; I'm seriously blushing

    Ok, before anyone makes up their mind, I should probably address some of the big concerns and how I plan to tackle them.

    IF ALIEN SPECIES ARE INCLUDED:
    They don't have to and probably won't be significantly different from humans, whether in culture or appearance, and especially not in capability. Apart from experience gain and each character's respective strengths, weaknesses, and powers, I would rather there not be any significant difference in skill between the races.

    IF TROLLS ARE INCLUDED:
    I will have to make adjustments because neither incarnation of their race had an even chance of winning; the first incarnation was too weak and the second too strong. It's not as noticeable because Doc Scratch is there to challenge them by making their enemies stronger, but... well, read on for my feelings on that. Anyway, I guess I am kind of saying I would really rather not include the trolls. It will be especially difficult to balance them and still retain their unique flavor in the canon story, and I have a feeling that will disappoint people. But I don't believe it's my place to rule things out willy-nilly. Well... mostly. I've got to put my foot down on some points.

    IF TIME TRAVEL IS INCLUDED:
    I have a plan for how it will work, because too many people have talked with me about it, although I'm still reluctant. I will tell you that it will not be as rampant as in Homestuck, and it will not be possible until later in the game. Note that there is a device required to time-travel, for Aradia and Dave; these devices bear resemblance to their respective worlds; and they are only used by versions of each character who are probably very far along in their worlds. Aradia's does not appear until Make her pay., at which point the trolls have presumably played for a long time, and Dave's until Accelerate, where he has already visited his Denizen.

    IF DOC SCRATCH/LORD ENGLISH IS INCLUDED:
    Someone has hacked my account and is masquerading as me. I will not include Doc Scratch or Lord English. That is something that, almost more than anything else, is unique to Andrew Hussie and the canon Homestuck, and I refuse to take that from him. It is stated outright that Lord English and all events and circumstances surrounding him are not universal constants. Not to mention, his inclusion sort of puts the events of the Battlefield on the back-burner, and at least for my first game I would like to experiment more with that culture and the enemies that appear there.

    THINGS I AM CURRENTLY THINKING I WILL PROBABLY INCLUDE:
    - Echidna. I am pretty sure she's a universal constant. I might get creative with her, though.
    - One Land which includes Frogs, if there are two interlocking sessions. Frog breeding being the thing that creates the new universe, of course. Both Homestuck sessions had Frog Lands.
    - One Land with a music motif, if there's a Time character. It would seem Time powers are linked to this somehow. Dave's is the Timetable, which is clearly DJ-themed; and Aradia's is a music box, not to mention hers is the Land of Quartz and Melody.
    - A few surprises. >:3

    Please tell me if you have any questions, or if I missed anything. Within reason, I want this to be the Homestuck RP everyone wants it to be, not just my own personal HS AU wankery. Not to mention there's a ton of stuff to be worried about and I probably won't think of it all myself @_@
