Your hosts are portmanteau connoiseur Alex (leafcrunch on tumblr, @crunchleaf on twitter) and notorious cloud-gawker Lydia (brickchip on both). Homestuck, as always, is created by Andrew Hussie.

This week: We finally round out our cast, meeting the last three trolls. And Rufio. We also learn what the heck is up with troll romance, so Lydia won't have to handwave and say "it's complicated!" when it comes up anymore. Everyone is terrible, except when they aren't. Pages 4121 through 4348. Hamometer reading: 28.89% complete. We didn't hit that 29%, shoot! Next week: I have no idea. In case it wasn't immediately obvious from the drastic downturn in quality, Alex is writing these shownotes because Lydia is currently driving across America (downwards). Questions?
