Something in Homestuck that will never stop being funny to me:

friendlyneighborhoodeldergod:

Okay so Sn0wman, right?
This lovely lady:

image

She was the Black Queen of the troll’s session, who was overthrown in a coup and exiled to Alternia.

image

Do you remember why that happened? Why the trolls and the four archagents who later became the Midnight Crew were able to defeat her, the Black Queen, one of the final bosses of Sburb and one of its most powerful players?

image

Because she didn’t wear her magic ring, the magic ring that transforms carapacians into deadly, super-powered monsters based on what each player’s sprite was prototyped with.

Why?

image

Because it was prototyped with a frog head. Because Araida prototyped her sprite with a frog head, a creature reviled by Dersites. So reviled, in fact, that the Black Queen gave up all of this power at her disposal because she just couldn’t bear looking like one.

So that’s all well and good, but what, you may ask, is the funny part?

Well.

image

In this panel right here, Doc Scratch appeared and gave her a “new purpose.”
To become Sn0wman, to join The Felt, and, on a larger scale, to become the universe.

That’s right. Somehow, through some weird first guardian magic, Scratch made her the literal universe. 

And do you remember what the universe is? What the universes are, in Homestuck?

image

BIG FUCKING FROGS

So to recap: The Black Queen, due to her vanity and her hatred of frogs, gave up a source of power that probably would have saved her from being exiled.
But then, after her exile, she became the biggest frog in the fucking universe.

Oh, and it gets better.

image

Remember these assholes? Yeah, sure you do. You read the intermission. Of course you read the intermission. What kind of asshole would skip the intermission?

The Felt, the gang Sn0wman ends up as a part of, is made up of fourteen leprechauns, who are repeatedly referred to with such descriptions as “amphibious, froglike, frog people.”

Despite, and in some ways because of, her refusal to wear the frog-prototyped ring, Sn0wman ended up as a representation of a giant frog, living among a gang of frog people.

And I just find that hilarious.
