Nix is my latest (and probably most self-indulgent) project, wherein I am a lazy bum so I need orders from strangers to motivate me. The only reason the main character is me is because I can't be bothered to be creative about this so HURRAH LAZINESS.
I'm not a really secretive person so if other characters show up in this they'll likely as not be blatant facsimiles of existing people so SORRY IF YOU END UP IN HERE I GUESS, family and friends who barely know what the internet is anyway.
FANART (How an adventure this silly got fanart I will never know but djfnsldkfjn I love you guys)
Author's Note: No, the art will probably not get much better, unless something really cool ends up happening. This is mostly just for fun/practice anyway. Author's Note's Note: The art actually does get marginally better, I promise.
To avoid confusion, but not by much ------> 'should have', 'could have', 'might have', 'would have'. Hoo hoo hoo, mm.
My avatar was probably made by someone awesome.

One day when young to the plains of Com'yc Descu'Sion, genteelGunslinger came across a small hole in the ground. He wasn't sure if he could fit his whole body in, so he stuck his head in.
A voice called up, "Who blocks the sky?"
"Someone is down here?" GG wondered incredulously. As the inspiration for the tales of Indiana Jones, Bing Crosby was known to never fear adventure. He pulled his head out of the hole and retrieved his pick from his pack. A few swift strokes allowed him to hop down into the darkness.
A hand grabbed his and pulled him up. "I am Everanix. Welcome to the cult of Vriska." cute of Vriska
"Who are you? I mean, I know your name. But why are you living in a tiny hole in the ground? This doesn't seem like much of a place for a cult."
"I thought it was a pipe. I wanted to flyyyyyyyy!"
GG, vaguely disconcerted, retrieved his lighter. "What are you, that you could fit into such a small hole?"
"I am Vriska." Before he could click the flaring device, Everanix flashstepped it out of his hands and held the flame to a torch. GG shuddered as he heard choruses of, "I am Vriska" echoing out beyond the feeble light. He heard a skittering as little girls with grey skin and horns crawled along the walls towards him.
"I'm"
"I'm not sure if I'm okay with this."
"I'm sorry if our appearance frightens you. We can assume our normal faces, if that would better please your honour." A voice from the far end of the cave, which seemed to be over a hundred metres in length.
Seriously, dude? You can't figure out the main character's name in a self-insert story where the title is a shortened version of the author's name? Seriously?
Unless you meant you wanted my actual name, in which case this is my self-insert and I'm gonna pretend all my friends and family call me by my online handle because I honestly like it better.
(My name is Sarah, though, if that actually was your question, because who cares if anyone knows your first name, right? What, are you gonna steal my credit information with only one of the most common names in the United States to go on? That's just silly.)
My name is Everanix, and I go by Eve, Evve, Ever, Nixxy, and my favorite nickname, Nix.

Look see, there's my bed, and my nightstand where I keep my hidden candy stash pencils and notebooks, and the tall dresser where I keep all my crap.
WHOA OTHER SIDE OKAY a little warning next time would be nice thanks.
There's a dresser with actual clothes in it (no, I'm totally serious), there's my bookshelf in the background....I even have a door. Whoo.

This sounds kinda very plausible as Bro's symbol, actually.
I hope Hussie puts it open-end up. Horseshoes facing down don't collect good luck and in fact spill it out.
I may or may not have been ninja'd, but in some cultures an open end up horseshoe is bad luck because it becomes a seat for an evil sprite to sit in. :'D
Every time Hussie posts it's like a chorus of angels come down and tell us all to go fuck ourselves because we're wrong.
I feel enlightened.

so weirded out that i was thinking about it even as jane blew up! like, "gee, this is weird, is homestuck actually branded into the sky here or something? is jane going to comment on it? oh wait no she can't. she has exploded. ok..."
okay now what the hell is going on in here??

All I can think of is how glad I am I signed up on these forums when I did.
Might sound strange coming from a guy with only a few hundred posts, but I lurk a lot.
For every joke, and funny panel hussie put up, I can remember like 3 injokes spawned by the community. Or see all the direct responces he did because of stuff just random memes that were coming up in conversations at the time.
For every plot twist, I can remember 10 crack theories that were insane and the occational one that got it right in the most awesome way. The hilarious freak out reactions.
And it occurs to me that it just makes the whole thing that much more amazing.
Thanks guys. Keep being amazing.

Books! You must have a book on hand for emergencies. Equip yourself with your favorite/whichever one fits in hand/whichever's closest.

I grab one of my favorite books by one of my favorite authors, which I just so happen to have retrieved from my best friend Essu the other day while I was supposed to be out doing that thing. Speaking of which...

I'm pretty sure I say this almost every time I have an in-depth conversation about Homestuck.

Homestuck suddenly makes sense, now.

Actually screw it throwing things is always fun.

Okay so you know how up in the first picture of my room it says "room may be messier than it appears"? That was kind of an understatement. My bed, dressers, and part of the floor are basically all heaps of books and papers I never got around to sorting. If there's something in here....well frankly my time is better spent guessing what it was.
Not that I'm suggesting that. Actually, now that I think about it, I was at Essu's house yesterday to get my book back. I might have mentioned to her what the thing is! It's risky business to leave the house without permission, though (17 though I may be, my parents are very strict), and a run-in with my mother before I figure out what "the thing" is would be....unpleasant. To say the least.
So what'll it be? Dig through the mess for clues? Try to sneak out? TAKE A THIRD OPTION?
Clearly you must Solid Snake your way out of the house. First step: find a cardboard box.
