EQUIQUEST: 2010: CON YA DIGGIT? (were still here, we apologize)

To wolftamer9: gotta stash those suggestions. Eridan really likes those cartoons.

WATCH OUT IT'S THE BIG FLASH. Hopefully everything works, to some extent, and nobody has issues viewing it 'n' stuff. The pictures are dum. The effects need work. I didn't do everything I wanted to do with it. Nothing syncs up. But I'm proud. Because I learned. The only thing that I now lament is the fact that I didn't drag out the scrolling to make it REALLY slow and excessive and actually be the length of the song.

Remember, people, that a lot of really important stuff happens in this thing. Keep your eyes peeled. And also, THERE'S A STINGER AT THE END, SO YOU HAVE TO WATCH IT UNTIL THE SONG IS COMPLETELY OVER AND STUFF.

> Mr. Cal: Back to school! Tell us when the heck class starts.



Well, judging by your trusty WATCH, you'd say there's about eight minutes left until the lesson. But we know what? There's almost no reason to keep teaching these kids. Not that you're a bad teacher or anything. You just already taught them the entire curriculum. They literally learned everything they were required to know in the first semester! Occasionally you give them easy pop quizzes on the learned material, too. Good kids. They always ace them.

What? Mr. Cal, a bad teacher? Well, if you were that bad you'd have been fired already. To wit, you've been the teacher of this particular clan of kids ever since they first entered middle school, and they've consistently made high marks! Plus, they all love you as a teacher. There is no reason for you to change your teaching methods. (Well, except maybe the fact that their "know-it-all" status gets them a few bullies, but you blame that on them other BAD KIDS, not your own, precious GOOD KIDS or GOOD TEACHING.)

Today's lesson, which you will give to the children just so you can keep Doctor Scratch out of your nonexistant hair with his worrying and what-have-we, is going to be about former President GEORGE WASHINGTON and his LASTING EFFECTS on the UNITED STATES ECONOMY.

> Mr. Cal: What about the "good kids" currently playing hooky?



Ah! So it is. Four of your PUPILS appear to be ABSENT.

> Mr. Cal: Speculate.



They shouldn't be out for too much longer. After all, none of them would want a time-out now, would they?

Nepeta is obviously out playing at the CHUCK E. CHEESE'S ARCADE, possibly locked in a heated battle with COURTYARD, or maybe that shiny CAPTOR guy, or even Sollux Hussie. Come to think of it, why didn't Sollux enter with his beloved sister Aradia? You'll correct yourself. He'd only leave her for important business, such as dealing with his BRO OF HIGH STATUS. Sounds more likely. Equius is...um...playing with robots or something? It's hard to tell. Yuu know nothing of his interests, other than maybe Einstein. He was always a loner, but you never thought of him as the type to skip class. And if you know Gamzee - which you do - he probably got lost in one of them maine-guh books or annie-maes. Maybe he's watching SCOTT PILGRUMM AND THE WORLD.

kids, the clock's ticking!

========>



Wait...now that the topic of kids has been raised, there's one thing you're worried about. Maybe Gamzee's not even in the state! That would promptly explain his absence.

But what we, the viewers, are probably especially curious about is the whereabouts of Gamzee. Because we've hardly seen anything out of that boy! Is he dead or something?!

We all wonder what happened to Gamzee.



Yeah. You wonder...

[S]> Mr. Cal: You wonder what happened to Gamzee.

We really should have asked Clark "Plazmataz" Powell for permission to use his song Homestuck Anthem in this thing during the multitude of days that we had to do it. Oh well! Maybe we can make up for it in part with this.

Dat flash.
Dat is all.

I had no part in the flash. But I am so proud. Also don't forget to look at the posts before that one at the bottom of page 16, just in case you didn't read that stupid long chat with so many pictures.

Also this. Thanks for all the views!

First off, thanks for the positive feedback on the flash and Weather Report's reallystupidcomic! Gamzee's a cool fan of all the animes, so of course he would have a Sanji wanted poster. Aside from that, who the flip is Jane Crocker? I believe that would be an invalid command, mister.

Second off, terribly sorry for the short update. We have literally EVERYTHING for it...except for two pictures. We had work to do, yo! So to "compensate", have...uh.....this one-panel update.

THIS ONE

Reason 2: Did you know Wayne Grayson did one of the voices in Ratatoing? Well, you do now. And now you realize that you never wanted to know. Dang, a lot of 4Kids voices were in that horrible movie.

Also, Naruto's English voice actress was in Kung Fu Magoo.

KARKAT: It is a LONG and TEEEDIOUS story.
GAMZEE: Can I at least ask you if I can sign your casts?
GAMZEE: By the by, where ARE the casts?
KARKAT: There's only one. Under my pant leg. But there's NO TIME TO SIGN IT JUST YET.
GAMZEE: Aw! Why?
KARKAT: There's some serious business to attend to here.
KARKAT: Now sit down and get comfortable because we are gonna start a BIG COMIC STRIPS JAM.
KARKAT: Oh sorry, I meant MANGAS JAM.
GAMZEE: You know, the plural of "manga" can just be "manga".

KARKAT: So I hope you've read the latest What's Michael.
GAMZEE: Duh! Caught up last night!
GAMZEE: Well, actually the website only went up to yesterday. Why does every site call it 'Garfield' anyway!?
KARKAT: Ha ha ha, the Internet and the newspapers get translation errors a lot.
FEFERI: What the heck is What's Michael?
KARKAT: It's just some manga! Look, keep your voice down or the secret's out. This is LITERALLY the ONLY way I can get ANYONE to give a darn about my newspaper comics besides me.
FEFERI: I thought he was OV----ER that phase!
KARKAT: It's not just a phase, it's a lifetime.
FEFERI: Who in Texas would get newspaper manga?!
KARKAT: AHEM! SO ANYWAY!
KARKAT: Here is a prime example of the ever-popular "Beware of Dog" sign gag.
GAMZEE: Aah, those are always great.
KARKAT: Yeah, but personally I'm worried.
KARKAT: I mean, how long can they take this gag?
KARKAT: Lasagna's almost on its death bed, Gamzee! Do you understand what I'm talking about?
GAMZEE: I dunno, I wouldn't get too worked up about it myself!
GAMZEE: But what I AM worried about is this: how's Michael gonna get out of THIS fix?
GAMZEE: The dog's right there, he could get eaten.
KARKAT: True, plausible. See where you're coming from.
GAMZEE: I mean you COULD say the guy could just RUN from the dog, but I mean.....he's fat.
KARKAT: No, you'd better take a second look at it. The guy's losing weight. He keeps eating lasagna, but the weight just melts off of him. So much so that, in fact, if I was Jon I would be worried.
KARKAT: That Michael has an abnormally high metabolism, and I think personally he needs some vitamin C.
GAMZEE: Ooh. Good point there.
GAMZEE: But look at those feet! I think it's PRETTY OBVIOUS where all that weight is going!
KARKAT: YOU'RE RIGHT! HIS FEET ARE JUST MONSTROUS!!
GAMZEE: He's got feet of lead, then! He can't outrun a big guard dog, leash or not!
GAMZEE: Then this must be the chapter where Michael finally dies.
GAMZEE: He has bothered this guard dog for the LAST TIME.
KARKAT: HOLD IT!!
KARKAT: I HAVE TWO MORE POINTS FOR YOU TO CONSIDER!!
GAMZEE: !!
KARKAT: ONE: Michael is a crafty m-f'er. This trait has been shown off very recently, in fact.
KARKAT: Here, let me show you the comic from July 2nd...
GAMZEE: HOLY CRAP! You still keep the archives in your bag!?
KARKAT: Yeah, about a hundred back issues.
KARKAT: But here, see this? The puffer fish said Michael couldn't hurt him. Then the guy POPPED him. He went FLYING.
GAMZEE: What a badass.
KARKAT: He'd find a way.
KARKAT: Michael always finds a way.
KARKAT: Oh, and you haven't even seen the latest page, have you. Here, have a look.
GAMZEE: Yes...this.....this is amazing.
GAMZEE: Michael didn't even have to use his wits to get out of this scrap.
GAMZEE: I have to say, it's a BIT of an anti-climax.
KARKAT: Yeah, I mean the dog's just forgetful and stupid.
KARKAT: Freaking ODIE would be a better guard dog!
GAMZEE: EXACTLY WHAT I WAS THINKING!!!
KARKAT: Next comic, we're on a roll here.
GAMZEE: Awww, man, but I have to GREET THE PEOPLE!
GAMZEE: I'll come back to you on that a little later...THE CROWD'S WAITING.
KARKAT: AAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

JOHN: homestuck's got a bigger scope, color pictures, great animations, and us as the main characters!
JOHN: not that scott pilgrim isn't good too...
JOHN: but what does scott pilgrim have that mspa hasn't got?
GAMZEE: Well, Scott Pilgrim's a special case!
GAMZEE: It's not manga, and I know that. So LOGICALLY I shouldn't like it, right?
GAMZEE: But I was convinced somehow that if I toughed it out I'd LOVE it!
GAMZEE: NOW look at me! I think the results are obvious.
JOHN: i'm convincing you, right now, to own up to this.
JOHN: embrace your inner homestuck fan!

> Gamzee: Woah, that was weird.



It was! You guess a lot has happened since you've been gone. Still, you want to stay as laid-back and uninvolved about all of this as possible. Mostly because you really don't like having to talk to John about everything related to Homestuck.

The clock's counting down. It's almost time for class, and your classmates have never been likely to break the school rules. They're not the Bad Kids by a longshot! If they don't enter soon, you'll be REALLY worried! Maybe even a bit TERRIFIED!

> Gamzee: Talk to Aradia more.



She does look a bit down. You mean, she's got Vriska, but she seems a little more like a hindrance than a help sometimes, and there's also Tavros, but he's a little notorious. Kanaya might make her a tiny bit uncomfortable; she's a bit much sometimes.

Just wanted to make a Roxynote: I chose brown for her hair specifically because that's how I'd always seen Rose and her mom's hair colors back in the day, and decided looked stylish. Questions, comments, concerns?

Also we only read Alive: The Final Evolution up to the part with all the suicides. That's it. That's all we really know about the story.

> Janey: Bake those cookies.



You already baked 'em. Take this, damn smart kids!

> Gamzee: Read Alive: The Last Evolution.



How engaging. Suicides. You love this stuff.

Investigate interesting old/new character.



It seems there is a new friend in the classmate. And though she has been alive for six sweeps, it is only today that she will recieve an actual name, besides "Handmaid", "Girl", "Bitch" or "The fuck did I just say about asking me questions, Handmaid Girl Bitch?!?!". What shall it be?
