I was surprised by the strong Homestuck vibes I got off it. Mostly because multimedia story (n.b. I have no idea how much of the images are alt texted, and there's a LOT of image-based text, not to mention video based text) but also because unexpectedly strong emotions. (Okay, also there is a multi-part intermission.)

Yes, it's about football.

It's also about a space probe waking up from a very long dead battery and coming into a universe that bears both too much and so little in common with the universe where the battery gave up its last power.

It's also about humans, in both complexity and simplicity. As represented by football.

It's also about global flooding.

It's also about that ancient enemy, Death.


It took me the better part of the afternoon and several tissues.

Oooh. That's totally on my to-read list. Has been since it came out. I think I read the first few pages and loved it. I just need an easier way to read it in bed and not lose my place!
