mfw Im a Fictionkin.
So I just want to let you all in on something interesting I discovered.
Homestuck is probably about Celtic culture, and no one talks about it.
The aliens are called Trolls.
Mischievious pranksters.
Psychic abilities. [debatable magic]
They get fairy wings complete with *special stardust* when they god tier, and at least some of them have elf ears.
Some are even born with fairy wings as a genetic mutation.
Their seadwellers obviously allude to merpeople.
Their royalty live under the waves. [Land under the Wave]
There are only young Trolls on Alternia. [Land of the Young]
They are born with different colors of blood, which is on a rainbow spectrum. [Multicoloured Place]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tír_na_nÓg
There is a King Arthur type character. [Dave]
Who gets into a love TRIANGLE with Terezi and Karkat.
Karkat is a Knight class like Dave.
Karkat = Lancelot
Terezi = Guinevere
Tavros and/or Rufioh are representatives of Peter Pan.
Nepeta and maybe the entire olive blood caste has Robin Hood allusions.
Bard class
Seer class [Ovate]
So now that thats out of the way..
Somehow this webcomic author wrote uncannily specific stuff about my interpersonal relationships.
I will just stop here for now. Its a lot to unpack.

Of course they are real, are we not real ourselves?

Fae are hard to describe, even worse with claiming who/what is fae and not.
I would say trolls are closer to orcs, than elves and fae, but who cares?

I thought Trolls were a type of fae?

Homestuck is probably about Celtic culture ... The aliens are called Trolls.
Hm, well, trolls are Scandinavian... not that that is totally unrelated to Celtic cultures, but not the same.
Wings and pointed ears are fairly modern additions to fairy lore - wings comes from Victorian theater tropes, and pointed ears may come from identification with demons thus gaining their "bestial" traits. Anyway there is nothing particularly "Celtic" about that either.
Lord English is named after a pool term and "retroactively" named after Lord British from the Ultima games, according to the wiki (there isn't a citation for what "retroactively" means, but I'm going to guess Hussie didn't have it in mind upfront but when it was pointed out to him, thought it was cool and decided to adopt it).
To be sure there's a lot of references to just about any darn thing with how sprawling Homestuck is, but "probably about Celtic culture" is... pretty broad.

Well, I'm not surprised, some vikings became dwarves. They look so similar nowadays...
It is interesting thinking.
Multi Dimensional Reality
The world as you know it - all that you see, taste, feel and touch, comprises only about 5% of all of the stuff of the universe. The other 95% is what we have considered "nothing" or the "firmament" or dark matter or the heavens or mystic Other Worlds. This 95% is multi-dimensional and consists of potential realities that may be perceived.
A single thought...a mere whisper, ...... barely upon a breeze that catches a spark... all is tinder before the firestorm... and yet.
ONLY that whisper
ONLY that thought
the world is forever changed beyond the fears and dreams of cardboard men.
Freedom and change starts within:
It is encouraged by truth and courage of people who love
Built by the respect of true beings standing as one before each other.
Lets us cross every man made borders
without fear stare into eyes and hearts of all our brothers and sisters: within our words without shouting,or force to hold each to our truths; and let us without fear freely share what works...

Delightful ~ A Poem
DelightfulThere's an ethereal kind of beauty in the rain's sweet kissThere's a certain mysterious uncertainty in the dawn of the mistThere's a wholesome song in the bumble bees wingsThere's a gift of delight during an English SpringThere's flavours of berries and honey in my steaming hot teaThere's a delicate blessing when I hear the song of 'WE'There's the hum from the boiler as it keeps our house warmThere's a deepening gratitude when I'm inside in a stormThere's a joyfulness smile every time…See More
