3 | A ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'' fanfic by Tropers/{{Canonier}} aka [[http://archiveofourown.org/users/SeptimusMagistos Septimus Magistos]], found [[http://archiveofourown.org/works/159974 here]]. |

5 | We're All Doomed is a ForWantOfANail story, following a universe in which Vriska decides not to prevent John from prototyping Jade's sprite with the doll. As a result Jack Noir is killed on the first page, simultaneously disappearing from the trolls' universe. The apparently positive outcome has a huge downside: the trolls and the humans are now both stuck in a doomed offshoot timeline. |

7 | What follows is an overview of their efforts to cope with the situation, whether it is through fighting for their lives, having committee meetings, or just fooling around. |

10 | !!This fanfic has the following tropes: |
11 | %%* AlternateUniverseFic |
12 | * {{Anticlimax}}: So, remember Jack Noir? Getting prototyped with a doll that lacks arms, legs, and eyes ended poorly for him. |
13 | * CookingDuel: The Rap-Off Slam Battle between Dave and Tavros [[spoiler:(and Doc Scratch)]]. |
14 | * CurbStompBattle: If it weren't for [[spoiler: Equius realizing his void powers]], Gamzee would have gotten away with killing everyone. |
15 | * DidYouJustFlipOffCthulhu: Doc Scratch is deliberately provoked into killing rage because as dangerous as he is in combat, he's even worse [[ManipulativeBastard out of it]]. |
16 | %%* DoomedProtagonist: [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin yes.]] |
17 | * EleventhHourSuperpower: [[spoiler:Equius discovers his power as the Heir Of Void just in time to help control Gamzee.]] |
18 | %%* FakingTheDead |
19 | * FearfulSymmetry: The title of a chapter in which the insane and regular Gamzee interact using Trollian. |
20 | * FixFic: To some extent. A number of things actually go for the better compared to canon. |
21 | * ForegoneConclusion: Sober!Gamzee's talk with his stoned self ends with Stoned!Gamzee from the future contacting him. |
22 | * ForWantOfANail: The entire timeline comes about as a result of Vriska making a different decision. |
23 | * FridgeBrilliance: It was recently revealed that [[spoiler: without Jack travelling through the Scratch, Doc Scratch would not have been created, as one of his primary components came from the kid's universe. No wonder he's so pissed.]] |
24 | * GenreSavvy: The trolls know enough to avoid Monster Movie mistakes. |
25 | * GoKartingWithBowser: Gamzee stops trying to kill off the trolls long enough to judge a Slam Poetry contest. |
26 | * IWantMyJetpack: Davesprite theorizes that in the future everyone will have jetpacks and flying cars and there'll be robots everywhere. About twelve hours in the future, to be specific. |
27 | * LameComeback: When Sollux [[spoiler:explodes Doc Scratch's typewriter]], he can't come up with a suitably awesome verbal jab to accompany it. |
28 | * MostDefinitelyNotAVillain: motherfucking future, crazy, gamzee tries to convince everyone he's motherfucking fine. WHILE USING HIS MOTHERFUCKING INSANE TYPING QUIRK INSTEAD OF HIS MOTHERFUCKING SANE VERSION. No one's fooled. |
29 | ** When PlayingCyrano, Nepeta is mOST DEFINITELY tAVROS nITRAM, aND IS PURRRFECTLY SHOCKED THAT YOU WOULD THINK OTHERWISE. Fortunately, Jade is not perceptive enough to be suspicious. |
30 | * PaperThinDisguise: ''Every'' troll sees through Crazy!Gamzee's attempt to convince them he's normal. |
31 | * PlayingCyrano: Nepeta, sort of. Tavros should really have kept a closer eye on his spare computers. Or at least logged off. |
32 | * ProperlyParanoid: Faced with impending doom, the trolls go all-out with safety measures, which actually end up protecting them from some of the less pleasant canon events. |
33 | * RocksFallEveryoneDies: [[spoiler:[[EverybodyLives Only not.]]]] |
34 | * TheRoleplayer: The entire point of the Roleplaying Subcommittee. [[TheMunchkin Vriska]] is banned from the get-go, before a single line is typed, but they manage to convert Eridan after a few false starts. |
35 | %%* SeriousBusiness: Demerits. |
36 | %%* ShipperOnDeck: Tavros has begun gathering an armada. |
37 | * ShoutOut: Many, including Literature/{{Discworld}}, Webcomic/BobAndGeorge, and Creator/WilliamShakespeare. |
38 | %%* ShutUpHannibal: [=HoNk=]. |
39 | %%* SleepCute: Aradia, Equius, and Nepeta. |
40 | * TitleDrop: Thread title drop for the forum it was originally posted on. |
41 | * UnspokenPlanGuarantee: {{Invoked}} by the time-traveling trio, who freely admit they're keeping certain characters in the dark about their ''actual'' role in their plans. |
42 | * VastBureaucracy: Kanaya seems intent on forming one and is mainly limited by the number of subjects and the fact that there's only sixteen people to join all of them. |
43 | * VillainousBreakdown: Doc Scratch does ''not'' take it well when [[spoiler:Vriska opens up one of their chatlogs to the whole group so that '''everyone''' can tell him off]]. |
44 | * WhenSheSmiles: Aradia finally figures out how to make her emoticon smile. |
45 | * YouShallNotPass: [[spoiler:Tavros to Vriska when she tries to forcibly ascend John]]. |
