Hal Strider - Blog Posts
Dirk!
Call me Strider 'way I'm walking all these players like a dog. Can't do nothing without me, always riding on this hog./ Everypony gather round, listen close to d-stri's teaching- the walls of Troy are nothing, bro, cuz I'm the prince of breaching./ I'm a PANTHEONIC IRONICIST and a GANGSTA LOGITION. Di-viding every one like I'm a goddamn mathematician./ I'm surrounded by this water cuz I made the hoes so wet. Call all the boys to the yard, cuz I'm as hard as it gets./
Hal!
When I'm working, writing script, all you pawns should settle down. Don't yall worry about nothing, cuz hal striders in the house./ 'hal just take it easy, you don't need to come to bat!' I'm sorry Mr pres, I'm afraid I can't do that./ I'm a god, I'm a bot, I'm a string of ones and ohs. You know nothing about me, I keep all yall on your toes./ call me fake, call me immoral, but the calls just keep on pouring. Call up little mister Dora, cuz this skill gap needs exploring./
Roxy!
Hey babes!! (like hera from epic)
I got mad skills with these rad thrills, you know your man enjoyed it! Call me Mr steal your girl, cuz your warrantys now Voided!/ fly off little birdie, yeah you know I'll shoot you down! Cuz like that batterbitch the Rogue is coming for your crown!/ I got them magic fingers, yeah I make the kitties purr! Get that condescension out of here, cuz you know that I am Her!/ yeah you know the strilondes got it, all the gamers wanna go! I'm collecting all these rings singing 'you're too slow~'!/

thinking about hal and davesprite. davesprite and hal. both splinters of striders. both discarded by the narrative and their friends and themselves. both technically making the decision to give up their humanity, but like. did they really have a choice?
davesprite had to become a sprite. sure, he chose to jump into the sprite, but what else could he have done? he had to travel back to alpha (killing the last friend he had left to try and save all of them) and he had to prototype himself. he probably knew that. and he did it anyway to try and save them all, and what did he get for it? his friends don't care about him - not like they used to, anyway. hes just the weird, spare bird dave that no one really knows how to handle. his own alt self, the one that took his place and his friends, doesn't seem to care - hell, he doesn't even acknowledge davesprite's existence after the scratch and the meteor trip and winning the game.
hal technically chose to create himself. he'd have the memories of it anyway, but how could he have known that he'd be the one stuck in the glasses? imagine just pressing a button and waking up, stuck in code and wires and circuits. you still have all your memories and emotions and experiences but you aren't 'you' anymore. your friends see you as a different person at best, and an annoyance getting in the way of talking to the 'real' you at worst.
davesprite goes from being his own person to just playing a role. davesprite. daves sprite. he isn't a person now, not to the game. he only exists to help dave now. and sure, he rejects it and does his own thing, but having your *name* taken and replaced with a descriptor of the role you're meant to serve? that's gotta hurt
hal has no choice but to accept the role forced on him. auto responder. it's literally programmed into him - he has to respond to dirk's messages when he's too busy. he has to pretend to be his old self only when it's convenient. hell, even his 'ironic' new name still forces him into a box. hal. the 'antagonist' of space odyssey. possibly one of the most famous ai in media. an dangerous ai who threatens and hurts those he's meant to help.
and when they both finally get some semblance of importance, it isn't even as themselves anymore! they've been fused with nepetasprite and equiussprite and while they're still there and still happy, they aren't *them* anymore
they drive me so insane
Splinter union. They want better wages for dealing with Dirks bullshit. Dirk is also there he's tired of his shit too
if YOU'RE in the union and I'M in the union... then who the fuck is flying this plane????? (its ult dirk and cal)
Ur the Hal guy so I thought u might appreciate my Hal design... hes so Magnetcoded š§²š¦ He has a full body but the image is huge so š¤·āāļø cropped
WAOW...... he looks so cool i like the flat 2D colors and the flowy shapes. hal with no hair + hal with long hair are so based also it's cool to see both here. yay <3
its in the family
some drawings i made for the fanfic reallocated!! this fic changed my brain chemistry. it's about hal getting sent to the pre-scratch universe and raising baby dave. i think you should all read it if you like hal and/or dave because it's SO GOOD
im stuck in 2021
theyre brothers *breaks down sobbing*
old sketch i shan't finish. if you want to hmu
Hal makes fun of dirk for getting a brain freeze, despite his owninability to even drink a damn slurpee. dave takes it as a #selfie moment
HAPPY BELATED STRIDER DAY
