As much as I think it's nice people are trying to share their love for the post-canon content in the topic, I feel like it only really proves Dandy's point about how the Epilogues and HSBC are basically inescapable.

I'm not really a massive fan of a lot of the things the Epilogues attempt, but it feels impossible to ignore them because basically everything in the fandom surrounds them; being a Homestuck fan feels synonymous with being a fan of the post-canon stuff now.

Even trying to meaningfully critique the Epilogues feels impossible at times, you basically always get hit with "hmm... I don't think you understood the themes. You should try reading them again." Even if you have already read them multiple times over...

I'm sorry if this comes off as super rude or antagonistic, I really don't want to sound that way, and I wanna reinstate that its completely fine for people to enjoy the Epilogues or HSBC. Its just frustrating how it feels like everything orbits around this stuff now, you can't really tune them out at all without basically tuning out the whole fandom.
