I am absolutely revolted at how much these trolls have grown on me. I am disgusted by how emotionally attached I am to every single one of them. It-- it doesn't make any sense. D:
From the point in the story where I am now, this is what I gather happened: a dozen or so angsty teenage aliens appearified out of nowhere, disappearified the four main characters we spent over 3,880 pages living and loving, and started randomly snogging and all the sudden the entire plot revolves around that. Now, if this were to occur in anything besides Homestuck, I'm fairly certain I'd be complaining. But I'm not. And that's what bothers me.
I recognize that this was probably not the wisest path for Homestuck to take, and it just strikes me as a little odd that I don't really have a problem with it. I feel like some stupid Twilight fangirl. I am absolutely captivated by angsty hormonal troll love. Like, really truly honestly. If I found it any more interesting I might explode. It's borderline creeper-ish. My reaction to this and this?
SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE~♥♦♣♠♥♦♣♠
Not to mention how ecstatic I was to see this and how ecstatic-er I was to have to read it again.
I'm not really sure why this bothers me so much. I suppose it just makes me feel kind of... shallow. xD There's such a complex and just utterly astounding plot- seriously, everything storyline-wise about Homestuck is just absolutely breathtaking-- that I can't fully appreciate because I'm too busy paying attention to "OMGWHO'SCRUSHINGONWHO". ;A; It makes me feel like a bad person.
XDD Just wanted to get that out of my system.

Selm dear, this is more common than you think ^.^ A LOT of Homestuck fans fell completely in love with the trolls and shipping them. Me included. Because, you know, trolls are awesome.
Actually - the first time I started reading Homestuck - back in January - I sort of got bored and stopped reading the first time the trolls showed up. I don't know why. I guess I wanted the kids back, and I was having trouble keeping the trolls straight, and bluh. But then last month I picked it up again and suddenly I was like OMG ~*~*~TROLLLLLSSSS*~*~* so, y'know. xDDD;;

TEREZI/KARKAT 4EVER. Just sayin'.

No, I'm aware of how common it is. xD; That's probably one of the reason it bothers me so much, that there are hundreds of people out there who are just as shallow and not giving the storyline the attention it deserves.
I will admit, I am skipping quite a lot of the troll stuff. xD; Too much Trollian. Not enough action. Which, probably isn't the best idea for me, considering the extremely difficult time I was having following the plot already. Though I guess I was always going to end up re-reading it several times. xD
