Firstly let's talk about a mistake I made. I theorized last time in my 404 section https://wunderscore7.neocities.org/ACDSSTUCK/4CHAIN that the story is taking place after a death, and that's the reason that act 1 is called BOOTUP AND POST(MORTEM) this IS correct but in a stupid way. We already have seen the death in the prologue, the death of eruptingThinkpan ( loudbraindude).
This does add much more credence to the idea that Acdsstuck has a strong connection with the cycle of life. The series literally starting with a death.
Additionally on the topic of the Acdsstuck prologue, I've never talked about troll VT. The main thing I want to talk about is the sign on their shirt, since there isn't that much else to talk about.
This is one of the 244 signs from the extended zodiac.
Some of you reading this might be asking WHAT THE FUCK is a mendicant.
( Wikipedia source )
A mendicant is someone who makes a living through begging. A mendicant will usually spend their time practicing their faith, preaching and serving society.
Overall I think they have this symbol on the shirt more so due to that just being the zodiac symbol they got. I believe there not to be much consideration for the mendicant symbol on the shirt, especially given their current distaste for the clown cult.
It's still fairly interesting and I can't wait to analyze the rest of the symbols!!
(watch CC just be another joke symbol iufghdfiughdfiug
if I could speculate on what an ice cube represented, I would. )
Izzy: Enter was an absolute treat to the eyes and ears!! It included a bunch of cute details in both the foreground and the background. Here are just the ones that I know about.
Firstly there are some shots which were directly influenced by homestuck

Additionally in the background of some images there are amongi
The cruxite artifact was solved in a fascinating way. Izzy without skipping a beat decided in a frenzy to weave a basket.
There are many parts to the symbology of izzy weaving the basket.
Firstly lets see how it relates to the aspect of space which represents setting the stage and creativity. It is very transparent how the artifact and creativity connect, the initial stage of the artifact literally just being a box labeled ARTS AND CRAFTS with PAPER(?) and SCISSORS inside. This makes it clear that the cruxite artifact is meant to be representative of the space aspect.
This then makes it so that the way that Izzy interacts with the cruxite artifact is a great hint as to the class, since class is all about how you interact with your aspect.
With that being said I’d say that my previous guess about maid of space seems about right, a basket seems pretty maidy idfk,,, i’m cooking i promise.
Holy shit so many drawings of izzy
Thank you to everyone who drew Izzy in the Maid of Space outfit !!
Part of me does want to claim that Timelesstinka literally gave me the asset of izzy in the maid of space outfit since it was already made
Drew Tinker has officially been introduced. The allegations of a male living space have not been beaten. At all.
Before I start talking about the classpect of Drew, here's a drawing of Drew I Drew :]
Last time the document covered how the computer browser he uses, Kairos, could very easily associate with the prince of time, the justifications of that are in the previous document feel free to go back to it.
After pondering for the past months, I now believe that Kairos more closely matches to a thief of time. Luckily one of the core parts of the thief class seems to be present so far, lacking your aspect at the beginning and gaining it throughout the story. We see this with Vriska with her extreme lack of luck at the beginning of the story ( luck representing light) and also with Meenah during openbound, lacking money (money representing life) and we can see this with Drew.
Before we establish some examples of Drew lacking time, let's define some of the elements of time. Some core parts of time I’d say are entropy, music, fighting, repetition and persistence.
Some examples of Drew currently lacking this are:
The haunting refrain, Drews haunting refrain lacks an instrument, something which is very odd considering how connected time and music are, note that if other members of the cast also have this trait, it won't mean as much. Timeless irl simply doesn't play an instrument.
Drew doesn't have a Vinyl player. Lacks the means to play music.
More importantly to me than the lack of music is the lack of MOTIVATION ( which I'll be using as a synonym of persistence), clearly stated in the EXAMINE ROOM page: “but have NO MOTIVATION to work on either” referring to the projects, a sentiment which is repeated again in “Drew: Open CODE folder.”
I do expect us to see more examples of Drew lacking time. If I am correct about Drew being a thief of time specifically, then we can expect to see over the story Drew stealing time over the story, being more persistent especially.
There is always the possibility that Drew is either a prince and these are manifestations of Drew lacking time or that these are all just gags and that Drew is some other class. Here is a tier list of what I expect Drew to be:
S: ThiefNote that D is exclusively for the classes which are deconfirmed.
