Homestuck Nostalgic Fandom Content Thread

I have a playlist for this sort of thing. some of them are REALLY BAD (Vriska Tavros OH NO) and some of them are GOOD (The Most Dangerous Game) but its just old fan content https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iXTa9-bhzpc&list=PLDAigLcZ7am9C_dxVJgYXeKRHfO9_mHd-

2013 here, my top two nostalgia picks out of those that haven't been direct linked just yet:

A Lullaby For Gods: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QKfP9N28buk

How Far We've Come: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Apx1pSs30Q

there's also a ton of just like absolutely early 2010s homestuck amvs and lyricstucks that fall squarely into the nostalgia beam for me, but i don't think i'm strong enough to link those at this moment

I do think that the OctoPimp dubs were truly emblematic of this period. It is a bit of a shame they privated the videos, but there is and archive up on the Internet Archive! Not in the best quality, but it suffices.

This is the exact kind of thread I was looking for. Perfect.

Anyways, [S] John: Just lose it is always in my mind. There is a 95% chance I'm thinking about it at any given moment.

Does anyone remember Phemiec's fansongs? I still listen to them to this day and honestly I think their songs are still some of the best early interpretations of the characters and their relationships lol.

I especially like Save You (The Feferi song) because so many people used to just interpret Feferi as this fun-loving sea girl with absolutely 0 personality outside of just being happy and fish puns, but that song actually delved deeper into her backstory and general attitude around freedom and being away from other people, not really being the leader most people expected her to even be.

You don't need me, you can save yourself. You're all so special from the inside out!

I feel that's really inspiring but also something that Feferi believed, she did have a lot of quirks of her own and was maybe someone who believed that others needed her to always be there to help them and what not (hence her having a really twisted view on how she'd actually make a new Alternian society lol) but deep down, I think the freedom given to her by the fact that all of her friends could already "handle it all" without her was enough to make her somewhat content. And being the "leader" even though she clearly didn't want to be just led to more problems and I'll stop rambling now this is not a Feferi appreciation thread-
