AGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

i tried reading alabaster a couple years ago, when i was still sorta new to homestuck and excited to see what big fan content there was to explore, but i remember not really understanding much of it... having just binged through all of it over like two to three days, i am HOOKED for sure. i didn't even know that it was still being actively updated, but i am so so happy to hear that it is!!!

it is SO crazy how likable the cast is!!! i did NOT expect to like ginneo as much as i do, and renart is SO much fun any time he's on screen... makes me feel inspired to put more thought into my characters and worldbuilding :') so many times while reading i had to just pause and say to myself, "oh my GOD, this is so clever." especially where game mechanics and modus gimmicks are concerned.

thank you for putting so much time and effort into this story... i think possibly the most amazing thing about it is how much it's retained its unique identity even for as long as it's been running. it's only gotten bigger, darker, and more mature! like a little genius grub making its magical metamorphosis into a brave genius wiggler who is also...... a rainbow drinker or something???? no that can't be right. i think this metaphor might be going off the rails a bit.

still, i am eager to keep reading!!! :D
