I like to imagine that Hussie writes the first parts of the answers and Viz Media is the elaborated part
Q: What is Homestuck?
Hussie: It’s a webcomic
Viz: Oh my fu cking god andrew were trying to market something her e move over
If you look at it that way, it truly does sound like a fight for dominance between Hussie being a cryptic cryptid who just gives the bare minimum, which is basically all you gotta know when you start reading it, and Viz trying to sell this story on a professional level.
The only thing we know about hussie is that hes a virgo and we dont even know if thats accurate.
