It's a song about Dualscar—but it wasn't always a song about Dualscar. No, it started out as a song about John. This explains the harp/piano section, which plays with the opening melody to Showtime, vaguely darting near it without ever actually producing the exact notes from Malcolm Brown's original song. I intended it to be more of a hint of John's original strife theme than a direct reference. In hindsight, keeping the references to existing Homestuck leitmotifs subtle was a smart idea. If I'd been more overt in my references and just made it a straight-up Doctor remix or an explicit arrangement of Showtime, it would have been really hard to reallocate it to a different character. And I'm happy that Violet Mariner is a Dualscar song. Dualscar needs more songs. And also it gave Radiation an excuse to almost name it "Violet Seaman". And besides, it means I still technically haven't used the original title, Heirstrike, yet. --- Track: Fuchsia Ruler +Additional Names: +- Name: Witc)(ing )(our + Annotation: contest-submitted name +- Witching Hour (contest-submitted name, normalized) Artists: - Kezinox Duration: '4:07' @@ -401,6 +466,8 @@ Referenced Tracks: - track:side-1-universe-a --- Track: Rust Maid +Additional Names: +- Apocalypse Maid (contest-submitted name) Artists: - Plumegeist Duration: '2:54' @@ -423,6 +490,9 @@ Commentary: |- Another fun fact - there's a cowbell right at the start that wasn't supposed to be there.
