I ♦ MY MOIRAIL | T-Shirt
Size

What is a concept? What does "friendship" mean? What is a concept? What does "friendship" mean? What does "dating" mean? Is there a manual, a code, a dictionary, for human relationships? Can we truly categorize the way we relate with each other on individual, personal levels? And what if the dictionary is wrong? Are we to ignore how Eridan was described as the model moirail? The direct statement of there being a pacifying moirail, and a dangerous one that is pacified? A dynamic seen in every moirail couple we see - Equius and Nepeta, Eridan and Feferi, the Draconian Dignitary and Spades Slick. Does language transcend? Most moirails don't fit this mold. Most moirails irl became closer to QPRs, best friends who support and love each other. Homestuck is hard. Language is hard. I think, through all of this - through our quadrants, our snarkybullshitometers, our autoresponders; Homestuck in itself talks a lot about language and the way we communicate. It's poetic, in a way, that the big bad is a guy literally called English. Because who else can stand in the way of our relationships than language, which makes us lie, miscommunicate and hurt each other? Does it truly matter the difference between "textual" moirallegiance and "fandom" moirallegiance? Or is that merely another one of English's curse, the necessity of using language to describe our existence and thus inviting such squabbles? I don't know. I don't know. I'm sorry. I am genuinely sorry. If you want to buy this shirt to match with your loving and supportive moirail, it's okay. It's not about what the text says it's about, it's about the relationship, the people in our lives, the sheer happiness seen when they send you that <> at 1 AM to show that they care. Regardless of text or no text, the relationships we've forged is real, and this is just as valid as any other way of showing your love. Because regardless of the fake language used to describe it, the relationship itself is real. Realer than anything else in this whole wide world.
