So I just finished reading Homestuck (blew though it in...maybe eight days?), and I'm eager to start delving into fanworks. So does anyone have any recs? Fanfics, fanart, tumblrs, videos, fancomics, meta - anything would be great!

I love all the characters so I'm good with fics about any of them. (I am particularly partial to Dave though...and his bro. It's so frustrating that I don't know what the hell is up with him yet :S). And while I do ship some pairings more than others, I'm at a point where I'm open to all of them.

(Ficwise though, I'd really love plotty longfic right now.)

can't help you with ships or fanfic but I do have art

I like Glub on it
http://glub-on-it.tumblr.com/
And Chazzerpan
http://chazzerpan.tumblr.com/tagged/draws
Isozyme
http://isozyme.tumblr.com/
http://xenobiologistforhire.tumblr.com/ <-- her second awesome troll science blog thing
And skeptic archer but I don't know if she still does homestuck-her old stuff is great though
http://skepticarcher.tumblr.com/

Ooh, thanks! I've been wanting Homestuck tumblrs to follow. There's so much pretty art... :)

And the awesome troll science blog is really interesting. I've just skimmed through it as of yet, but it's already amazing.

Isn't it? It's so neat. I wish I could help with other things but Im ostly just use tumblr for art and I don't know how to find fanfiction myself!

Haha, that's really helpful though! I'm basically the opposite - I'm usually apretty good at finding fanfics but awful at finding art or tumblrs. :S Especially tumblrs for large fandoms, because there's so many it's overwhelming.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I tend to find one artist that I think is good, then see what they reblog or what my friends who are in the fandom reblog. Or, you could find a tumblr that is one-topic like an fyeah blog for the fandom then find the artists that are featured there.

Tbh, I'm pretty new to the fandom too, so I don't have much to recommend. I'm also not entirely sure what you like, so I'll try to give a variety.

Miracle Child (http://archiveofourown.org/works/266683/chapters/419402) by bramblepatch.
Synopsis: More than two sweeps after being returned to a restored Alternia, the trolls face impending adulthood and banishment from the planet. Gamzee Makara fully expects to be culled on conscription for poor health and sopor addiction - what he doesn't count on is the personal attention and protection of the Grand Highblood.

It's technically an AU where, in a a doomed timeline, the trolls basically bust out of the game shortly before Cascade. It's probably my fav fic so far. There is Gamzee<3Tavros and Gamzee<>Karkat, but they're not the main focus if that's not your thing. (I gave you the link to the AO3, but the fic updates more regularly on the kink meme--you'll find the link in the first chapter.)

The Finer Details of Gay Cluckbeast (http://archiveofourown.org/works/244127/chapters/376384) by clumsyoctopus (John/Dave)

It's basically a post-game fic of John and Dave slowly falling in love with each other and it's basically wonderful.

Basically everything by roachpatrol (http://archiveofourown.org/users/roachpatrol/pseuds/roachpatrol)

All of it is wonderful, but I recommend "i will buy the flower shop, and you will never be lonely." and "Rise and Shine" especially. Also a ton of others, but I don't want to list basically every fic.

My tastes are mostly slash, sorry, and I'm not too familiar with a lot of the great fic. I can give you more if you ask, but it'll be closer to PWP.

Don't worry, I like slash too! And being in a new fandom is overwhelming, especially one as big as Homestuck. The first fic looks really epic, just what I wanted to read! And the second one is really cool looking too, I've been meaning to read a John/Dave fic, this looks perfect.

Thanks for the recs! :)

Fifth Iteration - http://archiveofourown.org/series/29405
It's from Tavros' pov after the trolls and humans win the game. Really fun and world buildy.

If you like Cronus<3Kankri or Jade<3Karkat I can give you a few more recs.

I LIKE JADE/KARKAT.

...i like cronus<3kankri

Ooh, thanks! I love world buildy fics. This looks awesome.

And I think Jade<3Karkat is really cute. I haven't considered Cronus<3Kankri before, but am intrigued by it. :P I'd love some recs for that as well!

A lot of Jade<3Karkat is sadly art on tumblr (really good art but... it is a rarepair)

Check out Kijikun's fics: http://archiveofourown.org/users/kijikun

She writes lots of cute Jadekat. Plus as a long ploty Cronus<3Kankri fic going.

http://archiveofourown.org/users/Askerian/ is another good writer with long ploty driven fics.

My favorite ongoing longfic is One of Our Submarines (http://archiveofourown.org/series/23579), an AU in which Sollux discovers a secret network of Helmsmen after being conscripted as one, while the other trolls are trying to stage a revolution planetside. (Take heed of the body horror warning.)

Oh wow, this fic looks really cool! I enjoy revolutionary fics, they're often hard to come by though...Thanks for the rec! :)

You're welcome! Also I'm skimming back through it right now and remembering that having a binary/hex/base64 translator on hand is a really good idea (especially for the later chapters), so here: http://home.paulschou.net/tools/xlate/

A NEW HOMESTUCK! WELCOME BROTHER/SISTER!

I was gonna rec Miracle Child but I was beat to it...

I don't agree with all the ships, but promstuck is/was too funny to ignore, and also has craploads of art for you!

Promstuck:
http://archiveofourown.org/works/220164/chapters/331772

Also... Serendipity Gospels.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/335176/chapters/541856

All about a fucked up dysfunctional Gamzee x Terezi Kismesis in it's full glory. AU where Sburb was never played.

As to dave...
I imagine Dave is presently up to enjoying his new friendship with his sisters girlfriend. For her end, she's discovering an artistic expression side of herself she's not previously explored.

There will be a tragic misunderstanding of pale courtship eventually, but once they work that out the friendship will be all the stronger for it.

Aha, thanks! :P I like your Dave icon too...I just really like Dave, okay. That picture is perfect. Kanaya's face. They are going to have so many shenanigans in the future. Shenanigans I tell you.

Promstuck looks hilarious. The art is really cute, too! Karkat and Eridan forever alone, pfft. And Serenity Gospels seems downright mindfucky, which is perfect for my purposes. Thanks for the recs! :)

Glad I could help! Always good to have more homestucks.

Also, an additional rec... now that you have the context... CHECK OUT THEM SOUNDTRACKS. Awesome music.

http://homestuck.bandcamp.com/

The numbered ones tend to have various stuff, the named ones more "concept albums"

Also, most albums each song has an individual picture if you click on it. So you also get tons of art

Edited 2013-02-03 17:03 (UTC)

♥

That Dave & Kanaya pic.

If incest is okay, London Rain by paraTactician. Check out their other stuff too.

Everything by VastDerp.

And if incestuous femslash with collars is okay, You Left it Burning For Me.

As for artists:
http://takaratime.tumblr.com/
http://deadling.tumblr.com/
http://moirallegianceismagic.tumblr.com/
http://paperseverywhere.tumblr.com

And I also follow femstuck and ladiesofhomestuck. Not a whole lot of Dave there, I'm afraid.

You may enjoy this set of Dave and Jade wearing each other's clothes.
