The Gofundme was completely funded and then some in a single night! I have made the Gofundme private now, as no further support is needed there. Thank you all SO, SO much for your help! I'll be contacting donors to provide their rewards over the course of this week.
Now, onto the video:
This time around we're talking about Ceruleanbloods, the caste cast in the shadow of Homestuck's arguable main character, Vriska Serket. Maybe it makes sense, then, that more than any other Friendsim Caste they seem to reflect aspects of her personality or childhood back at us?
Hard to say for sure, but fun to discuss for sure, as well! Do you have a favorite Cobalt? Mine's a tie between Mallek and Elwurd, what're yours? - Ігри
"the horny thirst, the lying, the fact that her entire relationship is built on cartoonish and ridiculous imagining, all of that is pure hope"
... i feel attacked
This is uncomfortably accurate as a Hopebound (rogue specifically)
@@zenzenulous2243 i feel ya (thief here)
In light of you making your gofundme target in less than 24 hours, I guess that confirms that you are in fact the Heir of Hope.
Just as a quick tip I don’t think anything may be wrong with your microphone in terms of quality more than say sensitivity. It feels a tad too distant but the overall sound quality is fine. Thanks for the vid! Sorry about financial issue do to Patreon malfunction :(
(I also forgot to say this but for me if there’s a lot of background reverb it helps to pull a blanket over me to help stop me from sounding like I’m in a parking lot or something so if you have anything like that it might fix the problem with it sounding a bit too distant or too fast quickly)
@@firewolf1992 Lol, I made the exact same suggestions. The reverb was because he couldn't record in his usual space, though, and trust me--it was a LOT worse before I fiddled with it and added a noise gate haha. It sounded like he was in a church or something!!!!
Yeah it's definitely sensitivity and acoustics. There is some bounce back that is getting picked up, so the dynamic range must be alot further on picking up sounds.
Ardata always read as a page to me moreso than a sylph. The successful route in the story also has the reader gleefully go along with Ardata, the final part literally having you Serve her food (or she forces you to eat it for her own entertainment, i forgot). In a sense, i always felt as though she was Serving Doom to others for her own entertainment, and the job she'd "chosen" was in a sense Serving herself Doom.
I think I might critique this by adding that she isn't exactly the one compelling anyone into doing those things for her through her own nature? She's just... literally mind-controlling them. Which seems a little different from what Pages normally do, which often involves being either so pathetic or subtly manipulative that people kind of just end up doing what they want anyway, and they tend to use their aspect in how they do that to meet their own needs. Ardata even mentions that despite mind-controlling all the people in cages to perform for her, that doesn't actually make her feel satisfied or happy or... anything. It mostly just bums her out that none of them are her "real friends", she's bummed that despite having literal mind control powers she can't actually compel anyone to do for her what she ACTUALLY wants. And, well. We also learn by the end of friendsim that the only reason MC does any of the things necessary to befriend Ardata is because he is being compelled to by...Doc Scratch, NOT Ardata. Ardata really had nothing to do with it at all.
You both serve her food, AND eat the scraps for her entertainment.
Wait but I always saw Remele as a thief of space more than a maid her personnality fits more the thief archetype in my opinion
let me explain my point: remele is literally stealing art in her route by attempting to rob another gallery and she is getting accused to steal the art of other trolls.. since space is frequently associated with art and fashion, wouldnt it be more fitting for her to be a thief of space?

Holy shit
Catra *_IS_* Vriska
I'm so sad I can't help you with money,
*BUT WE ALL WANT YOU TO LIVE A HAPPY LIFE!*
*throws a moral help into Camyosh
Hajime appreciation is not what I expected from a homestuck lore video but I’m so glad to see her remembered and recognized.
Your card for Ardata says Sylph of Doom instead of your audio saying "Witch of Doom."
He's torn between the two.
he says "likely Sylph or Witch of Doom", had to go back and check that one
It was either Sylph or Witch, and when editing I couldn't exactly put both, so I felt like Sylph worked better. I couldn't really think of anything that could act as her familiar that wasn't like, a big stretch, in my mind? Plus Sylph just felt more fitting in general what with how mysterious and dangerously fae-like she comes off as.
love the work you do and cant wait for purple bloods
best of luck fixing everything
Good luck with the gofundme!! I hope things work out. I wish I could donate more. We all love your content!!
Mallek and Remele are my only favorite ceruleanbloods as of now. Maybe I'll warm up to the caste someday. I also I would like to donate to you but I don't have any money right now.
Im early. But im so sorry to hear this
My parents probobly wont let me :(
lolk
I personally feel Remele would be a thief, but your case is quite compelling!
I think oD choose Maid because he had previously classified Tagora as a Thief of Space, and he didn't want to repeat classpects. I think that he was also somewhat influenced by his interpretation of Light as ideas, so Remele is roleplaying Vriska's Thief class due to her caste. I don't think Remele seems very Rogue-ish either. She's a bit selfish, even.
@@tedtolliver572 oo that does make quite a bit of sense!! :D i still don’t entirely see maid tho even still, I’d maybe say knight in that case :0
@@legallypumpkin I think that's a fair analysis. I can see "maid" in the sense that she creates these luxury products (space) for her own gain, but she seems to view it as a chore rather than her true passion. Iirc knight can be "someone who exploits/serves their aspect". I guess Remele's use of others' art as inspiration might be "exploiting materials"? Whether knights are active or passive is even more contentious, but she seems content to go alone or help an accomplice. Either way, she "serves" the products to her customers.
I'm very glad that I happened to click on this video when it first came out.
At that time I hadn't started watching yet, but planned to once I caught up on all the friendsim routes since this channel had caught my interest. Finally, I've made it to here, and I'm glad that the goal was met so quickly during that time!!! Cheers~
So how's it going trying to convince hussie that vriska isn't real
"gives you a Mega Hug"
except that, gamzee is called the most important character by the webcomic itself¿ so how is vriska, if not ffavoratism
No, hes called the second most important iirc
I always thought "most important" was intended to shift as we read more of the comic.
Caliborn/LE made Gamzee the most important, while Vriska *tries* to be the most important. It just depends on where it is in the comic.
I thought ms Paint was because... She IS mspaint.
Gamzee def isn't a favorite (for me he is 💞), he's just used as a joke for the comic.
You know looking back on these it would be fun to see a video post Act 2 and hear how or if your thoughts changed on any off these. I don't know that you'd need a whole redo off the series more just a tag on video at the end listing any changes you'd make or any specific things that may be off note.
Yesss I’ve been waiting for this video since I saw the mustard blood video
I'm really sorry for the situation regarding your Patron D: I don't have a credit card at the moment, so I'm afraid I cannot donate to your GoFundMe, but I'm going to try joining your Patreon for future support! Good luck, OD. Your content is phenomenal, and something of an inspiration! Keep rising~ :)
If only they knew that this was only the beginning of 2020
I can't decide whether you omitted Vriska from the thumbnail or you put five of them
Woah! It's already past the goal! (1856 PST) Congrats!!!! ❣️
Keep rising, I hope things get better!
BEING 14 SUCKS I CAN'T GET A JOB TO HELP ONE OF MY FAVORITE UA-camRS.
Elwurd more like the L word 😳😳😳
Think you missed an important detail though. Bronya lied to Elwurd. Literally lied to her.
Daraya said it herself. Jadebloods don't go to war or itneract with any othre trolls, they are put in some weird religious jade cloisters. Meaning that when Bronya said they could get assigned on the same ship, she was lying.
They get to choose to either be exiled from Alternia to serve in the space war, or become cloistered midwives. Supposedly.
if you're sick i recommend you some ginger tea, some cress/watercress juice (IT IS GROSS BUT APPLES AND HONEY MAKE IT TOLERABLE)
also a shit ton of vitamin c or propolis (pure propolis tastes like fire when you drink it if your troath is rashed but that's normal)
hope you feel better soon!
EDIT :PLEASE DISSOLVE THE PROPOLIS, GET LIKE 2 FINGERS OF WATER AND USE LIKE 30 DROPS OF IT
Oh, I can't really help myself, but I do hope you can sort those problems out and can continue to work on what you (and we) love.
The new mic doesn't seem to like low frequencies D:
Is there going to be a video on Rustbloods at some point?
Not me :lipbite: ing at the sight of Mallek 😭 -🧃♒
sorry about the patreon thing but im glad to see some ceruleans
I swear to fucking god vriska's stealing the spotlight even in hiveswap videos.
I wish I could help you out, but I'm tight on cash this month after paying bills. x.x
Also, your previous microphone sounded a lot better.
this means my indigoboi/indigorls are next!
oh my god gatchaman crowds
Yess
You can send a message via Patreon to let your patrons know of the issue and the GoFundMe! You could also put up a free post. Or are you still lacking access to Patreon? I feel like given this was their error they should reimburse you.
Wait why does Mallek look like Josh Dun?
optimisticDueluist, what happenrd to your tumblr? Did you delete it?
Sorry I can't give any money but love your video's bro
*_v r i s k a_*
I'm not a supporter of yours from Patreon, but I was considering helping with a few bucks of my own.
nice
My guy, are you okay? You sound beyond sick
thats just his voice
what do u think is the best cast in hiveswap?
This is gonna sound dumb.
But is there something up with your tumblr profile?
Alright, turns out when you abandon a Tumblr URL, it'll replace it with a weird single video ad.
Here is the new one: optimisticduelist2.tumblr.com/

[post-]ironic Garbage[iG] You're genuinely first 😂 nice job
I think remele is obviously a thief
Your microphone sounds worse then your previous one.
The precision seems fine, it's just not filtering any of the background noise.
