Hello Homestucks. This is my first story that my friends and I wrote together. This is a Homestuck Original Session with my friends and I involved as the heroes of Prospit and Derse. I'm an amateur writer, so please tell me if I'm doing anything incorrectly! Also, for a better experience, I would recommend having Youtube open in a separate tab to play the theme songs as they appear in the story.
Disclaimer: I do not own Homestuck or any of the music I have linked as a character's theme. Homestuck belongs to Andrew Hussie. Any franchises mentioned also do not belong to me, and all rights belong to their rightful owners.
Now please enjoy the first chapter of Sburb Omega!
A young lady stands in her room. It just so happens that today, the 13th of April, is the day she plays a game called SBURB. Though it was fifteen years ago she was given life, it is only today that she will be given a name! What will her name be?
Ponytail Lass.
That doesn't seem to be her name. Try again.
Jenn Juarez.
Your name is JENN. You are a SAGITTARIUS. As was previously mentioned, you are playing SBURB with your friends today. A number of MANGAS are scattered about your room. You have a variety of INTERESTS. You have a fondness for Ylissean lords and KNIGHTS. You have a passion for JAPANESE RPGS. You like to create games, even if you are NOT GOOD AT IT. You have a fondness for MEDIEVAL LORE, and are an aspiring AMATEUR ARCHER. You consider making each and every day a BREATH of fresh air. What will you do?
Jenn: Check your computer.
You fondly look over your COMPUTER. Your DIGITAL THRONE, as you like to call it. Your trusty throne of the digital battlefields has been with you through thick and thin. You stare at the screen until Pesterchum notifies you. It seems you have a message. Who could it be?
Jenn: Respond
You sit down in your comfortable GAMING CHAIR. You crack your knuckles and start typing, responding to your friend. She sure seems excited. Her bright orange text fills the screen as you begin to reply with your sky blue text.
(Beautiful Days from Dangan Ronpa 1 begins to play during the Pesterchum conversation.)
[criticallyDerpy (CD) began Pestering angelicTactics .]
CD: Yo, hey, hey, dude, YOU THEEEERRRREEE!?
AT: Oh! Hey! What's up?
CD: Oh, finally! Heeeeeey! You excited today? :)?
AT: Oh, totally! I'm still waiting for the game to come in the mail! What about you?
CD: I have it right now.
AT: You're so lucky! How did you get it so quickly?! I'm jealous!
CD: Heh, well, I did some... "Things" since you wanted to know.
AT: Gosh, I'm jealous! I wish I got it so quickly! I do wonder what you did...But that's a story for another time, right?
CD: Hahaha, yup!
AT: Oh, I think I heard the mailman! I'll go check it out, okay? Maybe the game's here!
CD: Ok, you better get back soon!
You log off, spinning out of your chair. You're so excited, you can barely hold it. But maybe your BROTHER is going to stop you on the way to the MAIL. He does love to troll you in the worst ways possible. What should you do?
Jenn: Dance around
You try to resist the urge to dance around. You don't have time for this tomfoolery!
Jenn: Check Window
You look out the window and get a view of your neighborhood. A few trees block out a majority of the sun, causing a beautiful display of sunlight and leaves to decorate the ground below. You spot the mailbox in front of your house and smile, seeing the mailbox flap raised. The mail's here!
Jenn: Retrieve Arms
You glance over at your chest of COSPLAY PROPS. It is full of what any respectable cosplayer should have. You open it and step to the side as a few items pour out. Examine them?
Jenn: Examine items.
You examine your COSPLAY PROPS. There are quite a few. Among the ARTIFACTS are: 1 Bow, 1 Quiver, 1 Cosplay Legend of Zelda shield, 1 Practice Sword, and 10 original Maplestory Phantom cards. You cherish every item. You've spent your life collecting these.
Jenn: Captchalouge
You captchalouge your Phantom cards, Shield, and Practice Sword. They may come in handy.
Jenn: Equip Specibus
You equip your trusty Bow and Quiver. You can't imagine leaving your room without them.
Jenn: Check computer
You glance at your computer again. You see another message, but you don't have time to check it right now. You head out your room, headed to the mailbox.
Jenn: Retrieve mail
You run out into the hallway, glancing around at your surroundings. Your brother doesn't seem to be around. But you keep your guard up, just in case.
Jenn: Proceed outside
You head out into the living room. Your brother isn't in here either. Your television is in the dead center of the room, with consoles and videogames surrounding it. A beautiful mess, you say to yourself.
You glance around before opening the door to the outdoors. He could be anywhere, but you slowly turn the knob. Slowly... Slowly...
AT: OH SHIT.
Jenn: STRIFE!
Your brother stops you, picking you up without a problem and throwing you back inside. He grins.
(Chaos-Ablaze from Fire Emblem Awakening, Jenn's Strife theme begins to play.)
Jenn: Aggrieve
You equip your bow and prepare for battle, the quiver filled with arrows at your waist. You take aim and let loose at your brother.
He dodges them with ease, deflecting them with his practice sword. You grimace.
Bro: Assail
Your brother charges at you, grinning while his practice sword makes contact with your bow. He strikes the curved wooden bow several times, then hits you in the side, sending you flying into the couch.
Jenn: Abscond
You grab your bow and quickly fling open the door, successfully absconding. Your brother nods, in a sort of brotherly approval, and returns to his room.
(Strife Music fades out, becoming silence.)
You scamper over to the mailbox, out of breath from the Strife session. You smile and nearly squeal as you see the mailbox. You walk over.
Slowly, you open the mailbox.
Slowly… Slowly...
(Insert the Legend of Zelda Item Get sound here!)
You got the SBURB disks!
(The Final Fantasy 1 Victory Theme begins to play.)
You hold them above your head, for all the world to see. You did it. You finally did it! You suffered through a Strife session and various throwings and beatings for this...envelope of disks! It's not really worth it, in retrospect. You cast that thought out of your mind and decide that it was worth it. You scamper back inside, excited to tell your friends.
(The FF1 Theme ends, with the Maplestory Henesys Theme taking its place.)
You flop on your gaming chair, sweet comfort relieving your wounds and bruises. This was so worth it, you think to yourself. You insert the game disk into your computer, clicking install. Your friends were messaging up a storm. Red, orange, and dark blue text fills the screen.
Suddenly you stop being Jenn. Now who is this young lady?
Author: End chapter.
