Homestuck update.

Awwww hell yes. All my diseases are magically cured. It is a Homestuck miracle.

Fantroll story I'm not going to write.

Taking place roughly simultaneously with Hivebent:

A seadweller Space player sees the world ending in a dream, and the location of a crater where the remains of a piece of important software might be found. It's near the hive of her internet-matesprit (they've never met IRL), so she asks her to find it and complete it.

Space's matesprit, a midblood who is the Time player, retrieves the software from a weird-looking computer made from obsidian, an impossibly hard sky-blue metal, candy, and a slinky black dress. Upon returning home with her spoils, she is revenge-killed by the lowblood staking out her hive. Whoops.

Time had killed this lowblood's lusus at a key-signing party, in one of those soda-fueled brawls to which most key-signing parties degenerate. This fight was the culmination of the two's long and bitter fight for dominance over a particular open-source roguelike development framework, about which absolutely no one else cared in the slightest. ("You don't need a framework to make roguelikes, you guys, this is stupid. You're stupid.")
