** The B2 version of Jack Noir also counts. He's built up frequently as one of the two new antagonists the Alpha Kids will have to face, and him becoming posessed by Lord English and wielding the Juju Breaker is meant to be a huge deal. But the only thing he does in the B2 Universe is blow up Prospit's moon ([[NiceJobFixingItVillain which helps Jane and Jake ascend to God Tier]]), and later is killed in Collide with little difficulty.

Added DiffLines:

** One that cropped up early on was the idea that [[LookingForLoveInAllTheWrongPlaces Eridan]] is actually [[UsefulNotes/{{Asexuality}} asexual]], but because Troll Society considers reproduction to be mandatory, he doesn't understand the concept (just as Karkat didn't understand the concept of being gay until John explained it to him). His desperation for a partner in this case stems less from actually wanting one and more from the knowledge that when the time comes, he'll likely be killed for not having one, and thus being scared and frustrated over his lack of attraction to anyone.

* ArchivePanic: ''Homestuck'' is a work of over 8,130 pages and over 810,000 words (which, for frame of reference, makes it nearly three times as long as ''Literature/TheLordOfTheRings'', and would make the comic [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_longest_novels the fifth-longest work written in English that isn't a translated piece]] if it had been published as a novel). Obviously, the task of reading it all proves to be '''extremely''' daunting.

** With ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}''. Both series share ''VideoGame/{{Earthbound}}''-inspired roots, similar tones, and the game features a few nods to Homestuck proper. Helping this is that Toby and a number of the game's contributors worked on ''Homestuck'', and Toby himself is working on ''Homestuck''[='s=] own video game.

This does not describe Ron The Death Eater, which is about characters being demonized in fanfiction.


* RonTheDeathEater: Sometimes happens in fanfic and fan art, the authors and artists generally seem to be going for CrossesTheLineTwice comedy, TrueArtIsAngsty drama or exploring AlternativeCharacterInterpretation.
