idk John. You may be thinking of Superman, but all I’m seeing is Robin here.
Just gonna mark this one on the tally. At least Jake seems better now.

True, but you also didn’t have a cyborg lady say she wants to forcefully marry you and that your uniform would be Rocky Horror Flair John. That may have an influence on how Jake views his outfit.
(omg would this mean that Tavros’s god-tier would be booty-shorts too??)
John’s unironic nature of genuine happiness is a blessing in this comic. A real gem.
Can you imagine hating people so much you just fucked off to your own island?
Look at John. Look at him right here.
While Tavros wasn’t wrong persay, he and John both went to support Jake. The way Tavros went at it was telling Jake all the things that he didn’t consider as positive about himself. John is instead affirming that Jake’s choices and preferences are valid.
Again, both ways are good, and Tavros would have probably worked if Vriska didn’t interrupt. But I like John’s way a bit more.
to quote a troll from long ago that seems to fit this well:
“It’s hard. Being a kid and growing up. It’s hard and nobody understands”
You are about to discover John’s latent ability: being so refreshingly honest that you have no choice but to cheer up, whether intended or not.
Sometimes you can’t really cheer someone up to cheer them up. And that’s ok.
God the struggle is real and relatable. Because it is one thing to see Jake go through it, but it just hits you like a dropped brick when Jake sums it all up like this.
Dammit Jake, I Still Believe In You!!! Be the Bruce Willis you wish to be! You go BE that Action Hero Star!!
Ever get that feeling where you get high expectations of yourself to the point it just paralyzes you on what to do?
That’s the kind of Humor I love using. Answering questions with blatantly obvious answers (ex: how did you do that? Very Carefully).
But Jake just wanted to be the big tough guy hero meeting everyone, but that wasn’t how it went At All.
And you guys never had a chance to meet with the REST of the Trolls either.
See!? Glad I’m not the only one who felt that way as well. I’m not tagging this as one of my seer moments because I don’t think it counts
Alright! This is what I like to see. Everyone getting comfortable in their personal conversation.
Yes, bring Dad in on all of this. He kicked clown ass before. He can do it again!
Plus the mental image of Dad going Hulk but still keeping his head the same size amuses me.
Homestuck is just a story about a kids wanting to reunite with their family members, is that so wrong?
I want to say yes, but then I remembered the newspaper clippings that Beta-Dad had about the meteor investigations, so I guess John never really knew everything about his dad.
