i also read the meat->candy->meat way, i wonder how common that is? i got into homestuck about a year or two after the epilogues released, so i google searched what the recommended reading order was and the first result was that method, so i just went with it because it sounded like a fun way of reading them. logically i guess it would make a lot more sense for someone going in blind to just read one all the way through and then move on to the other, but i wonder how many people reached that point in meat and actually stopped and deliberated if they should continue meat or switch over to candy?
