Yes, AdultStuck is looking for artists! Sprite or otherwise, I don't care!

If you wish to be considered for an official art team, please turn a previous event in the comic into a panel, and submit it to me. Again, I don't care about the style, whether it's got sprites or not, or whether it's even in color. If you need references for how the characters actually look PM me beforehand.

This also goes for anyone willing to do music! Same deal. Score a previous scene and send it in.

Author's Notes and other Fine Questions

show spoiler

hide spoiler

Right, so uh, this is a bit of an experiment, I'll be honest. The only reason it's text is because I can't draw for crap and also because I've got other projects that require more attention. But hey, we'll see how far this goes. It may just take a while to update sometimes. XP

Also, keep in mind: Relationships are not necessarily the same as in Homestuck. Characters who should be dead may still be alive, and not just because I can't possibly predict how Homestuck will end! People who used to be best friends may not have much contact with each other anymore. People may have ended up with people they probably shouldn't have. (yes, my "favorite pairing" may in fact count) These are the joys of an AU, and "How This Split Off From The Main Timeline" is a major theme

For the record, the story is NOT completely planned out. There are some notes I plan on hitting, and some things about the New Universe I've fleshed out in my head already, but for the most part the story is going to be very malleable for quite a while.

Bastet: Continue jail time. ==>

You attempt to be Bastet Maryam Sekhmet, five sweep old cat-bat-spider troll extraordinaire, in order to pick up where you left off and perhaps get the hell out of that jail cell.

You fail entirely, for now. Someone else seems to be demanding our attention. Someone significantly less friendly and likable.

We will turn our gaze from THE CITY for the moment, and instead cast it upon CARAPACE TOWN once again.

Yes, Carapace Town. Behold it's fancy psuedo-wild-west design, it's dirt roads, it's crappy early 20th Century Earth cars and fanciful horse carriages. Watch as the happy, mostly peaceful Carapeople go about their own damn business, greeting each other in the street and then walking quickly. It is, for the most part, a happy place.

Except for a smal, but heavily concentrated area of unpleasantness general located around the infamous MIDNIGHT CASINO, the town's most HAPPENING NIGHT SPOT.

Of course, it is the middle of the day, so there's not a lot of HAPPENING happening. But there are plenty of gangsters in the casino, at least. So that's something.

It is a fairly opulent place given the rest of the town, and fistfights are frequent within it's walls. Booze is plentiful, as are other, seedier things. It is not a place for children.

It also happens to conceal an entrance to a MINE, a fact that is presently causing one JACK NOIR alias SPADES SLICK a.k.a. the MIDNIGHT CREW'S ACE OF SPADES no end of grief.

They expected the mine to contain untold riches. What it instead has produced so far is...Something else.


Jack Noir ==>

You are now JACK "SPADES SLICK" NOIR. And you are presently watching the main floor of the CASINO/DANCE CLUB/BAR from your THIRD FLOOR OFFICE, via one way mirror. Since it's not normal business hours, the area below is filled with lesser members of the MIDNIGHT CREW. There's mostly just some general maitenence and set up going on.

Satisfied, you turn around, looking around your office.

It is fairly sparse, to be honest. It's mostly just a desk with the latest skinny on local events from your informants, and some file cabinets. And...That other thing. The little...sculpture your underlings found on one of the early digs. You try not to think about it, but you can't seem to bring yourself to sell it or throw it away...Even when it starts whispering to you. You think that's supposed to be a bad sign, but hey, Droog was always bothering you to take some pride in your work environment. It shuts him up, certainly.

You suppose you've done well for yourself. You may not run this town, yet...But you do run all the crime. And that's a start. You had a hell of a time getting to where you are though. Bringing together all of the criminally minded Carapeople was and is a difficult task, one made all the more difficult by the fact that you had to incorporate your biggest rival into the organization when it became all too clear that killing him would just take FOREVER.

To make matters worse, you suspect him of trying to pull one over on you. Some of your funds have gone missing rather mysteriously lately, and you think he may be trying to turn some of the other gangsters against you. It's the last thing you need when you suspect the town's TOP INVESTIGATOR of spying on you. The damn SHERIFF has also come around asking too many questions lately.

And that's why you decided to have him come up today. You have little hope that you can dispose of him, but you might at least find out something. Maybe you could even threaten him with sugar or something. Speaking of...

The door opens, and an enormous, white caraperson - the KING OF SPADES strolls in, already scowling at you. He approaches your desk. You politely ask him to have a seat...Carefully. You don't want to have to replace another chair after his fat ass broke the last one.

All right, you think as you head behind your desk and sit down. How will you approach this...?

Dammit. Making him the KING OF SPADES has not made you hate MOBSTER KINGPIN any less.

[kaoticAntagonist]

>FA: Invite your jail buddies into your club.
>Slick: Kill him.

edit: also am i right in assuming that everyone in that first batch of trolls are the oldest kids in the city?

[Triangle Man]

Slick - Channel rage into series of incredibly aggressive comments towards the Kingpin.

[Godfrey]

>FA: Invite your jail buddies into your club.
>Slick: Kill him.

edit: also am i right in assuming that everyone in that first batch of trolls are the oldest kids in the city?

Yes, you are correct sir.

[kaoticAntagonist]

sweet. i want them to lord their age of a few weeks to months over all the other trolls and humans.

[GenetiXientist]

Jack: Remind yourself why you made Mobster Kingpin the KING OF SPADES.


MK: Hatefully regard sculpture on "Spades Slick's" desk.

[Voaha Kuana]

Jack: Remind yourself why you made Mobster Kingpin the KING OF SPADES.


MK: Hatefully regard sculpture on "Spades Slick's" desk.

yes

[fergus]

>MK: Don't be stealing funds or plotting a coup.
>CD: Turn out to have spent large amounts on silly hats.

[medmedina007]

>Slick: Snidely offer MK some sugar-cube dice.
>MK: Break bowl with your meaty fist in anger. Get down to brass tacks.
>Slick/MK: Engage BROODING "LEGITIMATE BUSINESSMEN" AND THEIR FEARSOME HORSESHITOMETER. Begin DIPOLMACY.

[Steel Dragon]

Hysterical Dame: Try to call Problem Sleuth. Fail overwhelmingly and misdial Jack Noir.

edit: oh my gosh everyone from problem sleuth is in this now I am so happy you have no idea

[aspiringHelpfulness]

I got nothing.

==>

[Lubiniki]

... Why did I make a character with the initials MK? LOL. It sounds so funny when people confuse the main MK with... A Marie Curie clone. It really is.

Hmm... I second Jack Noir "reminding himself" how he made Kingpin the KING OF SPADES. I suppose it went (something) like in Problem Sleuth? :D

And also, when you get back to the kids that are in jail, I have a suggestion for that, involving kaoticAntagonist's post in the last page of the old thread.

> cT: well since LE's friends have gotten themselves locked up too you might as well call DT. He has contacts in the Knights, you think.
>DT: Be busy.
>CT: Be the sane, proactive one.

And then:
>CT: Decide to pester EA, he could break you out, right? Forget to mention Tesla.
>EA: Get there, see Tesla, HATERAGEGARGH <3<!!! Yell and get locked up in the same cell as Tesla.
>TM: Be the unluckiest kid on Gallifrey.

OR (alternatively):
>AP: Be the one to break everyone out of jail. Or at least FA.

[AchillesAndTortoise]

So are all Problem Sleuth characters actually Prospitians according to this?

Jack: Offer him tea.

Jack: COMBAT OPERANDI: TWO LUMPS

[The Long Man]

oh god this is gonna be good.
No command suggestions from me for now, I just want to see what happens

[Zak TH]

Problem Sleuth Team V.S. The Midnight crew.

...hell yes.

I also haven't read far enough in problem Sleuth to know who Mobster Kingpin is, so no suggestions here.

You're welcome.

[Ruki]

-> Jack Noir: Ugh, this Kingpin is such a thorn in your side. He is practically TEARING YOUR BUSINESS APAR-

-> Diamond Droogs: Enter.

Clubs Deuce: CD o3< SS MK

My computer's acting up now and I had to log out last night before I could post this.
Why is it always the "special" kids who get picked on.

I'm sure Emiiiie kicks plenty of butt and those are just battle scars. I fail at bruises though.
I don't like how Dj came out and eventually decided the four leaf clover losing a leaf was a better symbol for Emiiiie with the luck connotations.

That... Was too cute for words. Though, where ARE Emie's horns? o:

[GenetiXientist]

I thought Emiiiie had pale skin.

[pimudragonfeline]

If you go back to the description it says she has no horns. Also my scanner is crap so I have to adjust the contrast. Finally Dj beats up anyone left standing when she finds Emiiiie's latest scuffle in my headcannon. The idea for Dj's cute hat came from another child of Strider over at the TrollCops! AU.

Damn, Dave is flashstepping between topics nailing other girls and having more kids?!


We taught him better then that =P

Clubs Deuce: Interrupt meeting with wacky antics!
