Homestuck/Tropes P-R: Difference between revisions

** [[Psychic Block Defense]]: Vriska informs us that it's hard for her to dominate other psychics and the strong minded; so Aradia and Terezi are out. She consequently controls Sollux whose vision ''two''fold is apparently fair game ''half'' the time into killing one and Tavros into indirectly blinding the other. So two of her three greatest displays of power have been on a fellow psychic; Tavros must just be really [[Weak-Willed]].

*** [[Word of God]] is that higher blood castes have much greater psychic resistance, but virtually no psychic powers. Tavros is low caste, so he's a relatively easy pushover.

* [[Psychic-Assisted Suicide]]: Vriska has killed countless Trolls with her mind control.

* [[Punched Across the Room]]: Dad decking a Shale Imp ''through a wall.''

** Of course Karkat thinks humans are weird for making incest a thing, so whatever.

** [http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005407 Spineret Mindfang] seems to have a thing for lowbloods, particularly lowbloods of unknown caste (or maybe just squicking her kismesis by defying social conventions).

{{quote|"the answer is two" ... "you're welcome, internet, for all the terrible art that joke answer will be responsible for".}}

* [[Rule of Animation Conservation]]: Flash is used for a) exposition via walkarounds in which one interacts with the environment, b) minigames, c) atmospheric detail via music or sound, or d) epic cinematic moments. Andrew seems to like the last usage best; as of late the other three types of flashpages have been greatly reduced. Simple .gif animation, on the other hand, is so common it's not even worth mentioning anymore (unlike in the early days of Problem Sleuth).
