I wanna make an arg with a really stupid premise

Bear with me on this one

So here’s the deal, we start out with a person who legit is in their moms basement on the computer 24/7 who is stuck in the early 2000s mentally like they need to touch grass so bad. They despise anything that goes past 2015 except the pandemic. When the pandemic happened everyone began living like them, they weren’t really outcasted as much and all their online friends were on more often but when life began to continue again this is their breaking point everyone starts leaving them again, it was so much better when everyone was… homestuck.

Here’s where it starts going off the rails. This dude’s favorite thing in the whole wide world is homestuck, they went to all the conventions back in the day, all the meetups that kinda jazz. They love it so much that they want to try to make homestuck real. They catalog it all on the internet and at first it’s like cheesy, corny stuff like painting a symbol on their shirt, redesigning their room to be mostly white (even though their grody ass doesn’t know how to clean shit) but then things take a turn. They get a tips on their videos that start as a lil weird and ramps up to absolutely creepy with strange lil things like coordinates to a random place in the woods where someone ‘coincidentally’ dumped some of the stuff they needed, some ‘cash they had lying around’ given to the cause to a freezer of DUBIOUSLY OBTAINED TOTALLY NORMAL ANIMAL ORGANS THAT IS TOTALLY FINE. All the while there are their friends, family and random internet strangers are telling them something is CLEARLY WRONG HERE but the dude is so blinded by obsession, loneliness and the now renewed hope that this is possible that they continue with this and eventually they doom the world.

Of course this is just a rough outline and knowing my luck it’ll probably never even happen this is legit just in my unmediated ADD brain just having word vomit at the moment but I think I’d be funny and cool.

Also here’s just some of the ideas that are rattling around in my brain:

The person tries to get 12 people in on the world ending project, idk if they’ll get that many it’s probably gonna go from 12 fewer like 6,4 or maybe even just 2

Them trying to sell a disk to a bunch of 12 year olds, one doesn’t know what a disk is some think he’s a creep one of them thinks they have some mental issues (they absolutely do)

They get canceled on Twitter which ends in them going on a rant about how much they hate the modern day and it’s like a crusty YouTube vid with tears

The whole group of future sburb players on a Skype call or something going over how to play the game, some are legit just trolling the guy others help try to explain how the game works some are writing down notes some are having atrocious technical problems and then THEIR MOM WALKS IN

One dude gets in on the project just to troll and goof like legit is memeing about this on his account like “me to a wedding 👕 me to the sburb play through “ and all that shit and just watching the abject horror come upon them when they realize they just helped doom the world, all of their friends and family are gone and there was a chance they could have stopped this

Legit a kid who hasn’t read homestuck gets roped into this because they think it’s cool and doesn’t have any idea what is to come

A lot of people who need therapy

Typical arg bs you know the drill

A lot of early 2000s and homestuck references

Close encounters with ‘trolls’

They try to choose people to play sburb based on their interests like if they have an interest that predates the end of homestuck that’ll be a choice pic, like furries, weebs etc. and their classpect, like you can’t have a session without a time and space aspect and they absolutely DO NOT WANT REPEATS everyone has to have an original classpect

The series finale being on 4/13 , by law it legit has to

Ok that’s all for my word vomit thanks for reading and tbh I’ll probably forget about this tomorrow

PLUSHRUMP ARG documentation site is up :)

It's not quite complete yet, but it is coherent. I'll be adding more notes and tidbits later once I have time, as well as catch up to the latest news. The timeline is toggle-able for easier navigation. If anyone wants to send more stuff, feel free to submit, ask, or dm on tumblr. Sadly, I won't be answering Discord dms because too many of my friends have gotten their accounts taken by scambots lately, so I'm not answering anyone I don't already know ;-;

EDIT: ADDING NAVIGATION GUIDE

BULLETIN - for unconfirmed things that may need sleuthing. Blue is for unconfirmed calls. Red is for confirmed calls.

TIMELINE - summarization of a day's events. First entries aren't that long but later entries toggle by blog so things aren't too cluttered and 'wall of text'-y for readers

THE SHITLIST - Stars is on it

EDIT: ARG IS DONE! GOOD GAME, FOLKS! :D

Hey…

So you know that homestuck arg that I brain rotted over a while ago?

Yeah *BRAIN ROTS EVEN MORE*

HELL YEAH BROTHER WE ORGANIZING OUR THOUGHTS INTO A COOL PAGE THING!!

Speaking of which I’ll come onto here asking for suggestions! Things like “I need a name for X character” , “How many characters should be in this thing?” Or I’ll just ask for people to just spitball some ideas!

My god, this is the most cursed thing I’ve ever drawn and yet it feels super funny

plushrumps arg archive final update

Reworked header to take the credits out of the toggle. A heartfelt thank you to the Feltfiends (especially @fribbitz and @ironovervine), to @nutzworth, to the Shitpost Pissdrinkers, to the anons, and to the contributors who have chosen to remain uncredited and anonymous.

A new section with Behind-the-Scenes content has been added, featuring the muns' blogs, and a summarization of the BTS convo on Feltfiends.

Cleaned up the Bulletin as it is now defunct with the ARG over. Also cleaned up parts of the site so it's neater.

And that's it! Good game, y'all. If there are small tidbits from the muns here and there, I'll do my best to add them, but otherwise, most of the work is done.

Thank you to the muns @terrorizings @classpectpokerap @orangestorapples @horsesbones @jester-vamp and @maybetheyregiants , even if it was serendipitous and spontaneous ❤️. Thank you to the servers who've had to deal with me and my annoying dramatic ass 💜. As I've said, it has been a pleasure and an honor to be your liaison, your secretary, and your archivist. And your dear friend 💙.

You may now proceed to beat this blog with hammers and put me to sleep.

welcomehomestuck is back baby!
