there’s a lot of easily accessible writing advice now bc of tik tok and some of it is good but a lot of it is shit bc there’s always an exception to almost any writing rule and so much writing advice on there forgets that
story telling can be so different depending on the story, so honestly the only writing advice you should keep in mind is the only one that I don’t think has an exception: tell the story you want to tell, and have fun while doing it.
that’s it. all these other rules can come later, and you can pick and choose which ones to follow and which ones to ignore bc they’re all situational anyway. just write what u wanna write and if u love it enough you can and will make it good.
ps. what usually ruins stories is when the author is trying to cater to other people instead of themself bc writing is first and foremost a labor of love so srsly just write what makes you excited

ITS BEEN A WHILE SINCE I POSTED, GAMERS. SORRY FOR YELLING IM VERY EXCITED ABOUT SHARING THIS.
So, my homestuck hyperfixation has definitely died down, but it will always hold a place in my heart even if i try very hard to kick it out.
my new hyperfixation is Stray (2022). anyone heard of that? everyone who wasnt born yesterday mustve heard of it at least once.
well, im thinking of merging those two today. Thats right, YOUR CAT GAME, TURNED HOMESTUCK. enough of the rambles though. lets get into it.
So people may ask, soda what the fuck, how will you do that. well. buddy. im not gonna make robot versions of the trolls, it would be fun but... no. neither will i go the other way around, though that would also be fun. I only assigned the outsiders some classpects. i've never done that before except for simple friendly inside jokes, but here i go.
First off, i gave them extended zodiac signs, because it definetely helps with classpecting in my opinion and also its fun to analyze. for Clementine, i got Arist.
Sign of the headstrong. Rust, prospit, time-bound.
anyways, the way i classpect is usually reading about the different aspects, and then make class the second thing i decide.
I used the elimination method for the classes; do they steal (aspect)? do they destroy it?
I also go with the secondary things, for example princes lacking their aspect.
Adding onto that, Clementine, arguably, lacks of time, because she is on the run from Sentinels.
I also don't care about genders assigned to classes, mostly because I'm not a huge fan of it, but also because They're robots.
Conclusion; Clementine is the prince of time.
Okay? okay. thats one obligatory aspect out of the way. next we have Momo.
For Momo, figuring out the sign was a bit hard, but thats not very important. He'd be a Piga.
Sign of the designer. Fuchsia, derse, space-bound.
This one was a bit difficult, and i ended up giving him a not so well known class, which means most of this is from speculation.
Heir.
I went off the definition 'one who receives (aspect)' and you might know where I'm going with this.
Clem and Zbalt leave to midtown and ant village respectively. Doc goes out to test the defluxor. Momo is given lots and lots of space, despite never asking for any.
Need i say more?
Conclusion; Momo is the heir of space.
Next is a character, that I don't really know that much about. So this one is a bit tricky and not as good and thought out.
Zbaltazar. He'd be a Sagira.
Sign of the tenable. Indigo, prospit, mind-bound.
I was absolutely obsessed with making zbalt mind-bound, you dont even know.
I don't really have much to say. He'd be a page, i think. Creator of mind. Because his whole thing in the game is meditating, it seems. feel free to prove me wrong?
Conclusion; Zbaltazar is the page of mind.
AGAIN I DO NOT KNOW THIS CHARACTER WELL, SO DONT EXPECT IT TO BE SUPER ACCURATE
anyways, on to Doc. the one i had the most fun classpecting :-)
He'd be a Virpia. Jade mostly because of the caretaking tendencies, don't judge me for that okay...
Sign of the perfectionist. Jade, derse, light-bound.
I'm proud of myself for this one. Light fits Doc both in the aspect sense, because of knowledge, and because he made the Defluxor.
On that note, he'd definitely be a knight. Serves through light. He used his knowledge to make a weapon against the zurks, which was super important for him to come back home and also for the kitty to safely make it through the sewers.
It also occurred to me that, if we take the speculations as a fact, and knights serve what there is little of in their session, it fits as well. The walled city is full of neons, but no natural light. as for knowledge, im not sure if it also fits that rule, but it could. Also when i say session generally its BEFORE the session there wouldn't be a lotta light, (meteors would kinda destroy the fucking walls and shit) but either way.
conclusion; Doc is the knight of light
so lets repeat all of that
clementine, prince of time
momo, heir of space
zbaltazar, page of mind
doc, knight of light
feel free to add your own opinions if youre in both fandoms.
this was a fun one time thing, haha. hope you enjoyed reading it at the very least :)
