root: "i'm going to be the sexy mysterious stranger who moves in and out of your lives seemingly at random you'll never know when i'll pop up wink wonk"

shaw: "i'm going to be the sullen eighth grader who really doesn't want to be here, until i decide that i actually do want to be here, at which point i will immediately morph into the bratty little sister to every single one of you"

"Wink wonk" should be the captions for every time Root tries to wink

agree

it's also a Homestuckism and now I'm thinking about whether or not root ever tangentially encountered Homestuck fandom

had a brush with it but was peak snobby weeb and never interacted with them

perfect, new headcanon

but what are their classpects

I never memorized the class traits but now I'm so curious. To the deep recesses of the Homestuck wiki

it still amazes me that I know fuck all about homestuck.

I never homestucked at all lol so i am no help

how did I even manage that? I literally wrote notes about it so I didn't make Hanna sound like a moron xD

all of my friends were obsessed and I just couldn't get it.

Shaw Knight of Hope, Root Witch of Rage

Hope only mostly fits Shaw (she is not very imaginative) but Rage is Root to a t

Mind is also incredibly finch-coded. Reese is Doom
