Violet Prince

[@BaconLordess]

I think it's funny when people assume Eridan is just lonely because of his want to have his quadrants filled. He's simply thinking of his future, where quadrants aren't just for fun, where his life will literally be in danger if he doesn't have both a kismesis and a matesprit. However, his friends don't understand quite yet.

[@baconey329]

nyeh quadrants wweh sax me

[@probablydeadinside7877]

the thing is that this is completely correct think about it though the person you're with determines your future they could persuade you to do things, or dissuade you to do things they could boost your confidence or destroy it you're giving your whole future to someone because you trust them why wouldn't Eridan seem desperate about this? it's because he values his life

[@noirchime5590]

I feel like people are forgetting what Eridan's 'job' was prior to the session. He literally went out and KILLED the lusii of other trolls to feed to Gl'bgolyb (Feferi's lusus). Lusii are literally created to look after, guard and protect young trolls from harm. I think a few of us are underestimating our prince.

[@theodawson9465]

Literally, he was a pirate that specialized in murdering parents.

[@Billyblue98]

[@munchimadness2620]

I don't like ehen people portray Eridan as a crybaby who wants to fill buckets, Eridan was saving many by orphaning few, if he didnt, then everyone except Feferi, HIC and the humans would die. I think Canon Eridan would be annoyed at hid fandom representation.

[@thekaboominator1]

+xKittyKat I don't know, he did kill Feferi. The bastard.

[@kmacartney1396]

I love this track so much, because I think it fits Eridan PERFECTLY. It's got this nautical marching tune, as well as seeming semi-royal, just like the princely pirate Eridan aims to be and is pressured to be. The recorder makes him seem incredibly young, as he is. He's just a tiny kid trying to prove to his friends that he's all he says he is and all that his caste says he should be- violent and cold. And in a way, he is violent and cold, because he tries so hard to be, whether he shows compassion to some characters or not. Eridan is a very interesting character, once you sit down and think about him. While I don't particularly sympathise with him, I still feel Hussie did an incredible job of creating (yet another) detailed and interesting character even with very little screen time.

[@abbie_joan]

I personally ABSOLUTELY LOVE his character. His personality is so inspiring. A personality of a true, great and powerful ruler. This music perfectly highlights his royalty. He is violent, but it just gives him a more amazing personality. I don't like when people make him a fuckboi, wanting to fill his quadrants and buckets and a crybaby. It just ruins it. A great character doesn't have to be a protagonist. And that's what adds a colour to a great story.

[@mika-lw7pd]

I think it’s really interesting that this song has the ‘marching song’ kinda beat to it, because Eridan really likes history, especially history surrounding battles and war. It’s a nice little tie in

[@higztv1166]

I feel that this song is very strongly associated with the classic hero's journey: 0:07 - 0:15 - The main hero introduced 0:16 - 0:21 - His crew also introduced 0:22 - 0:51 - The world is in danger because of the main villain's actions 0:52 - 1:20 - People suffer and heroes decide to go on a journey to defeat the main villain 1:21 - 1:35 - Heroes on the journey 1:36 - 1:50 - A lot of fighting with the bad guys, heroes approaching the villain's castle 1:50 - Heroes at the gates of the villain's castle 1:51 - 2:12 The main villain makes an EPIC appearance, traps heroes in the castle and starts killing everyone 2:13 - 2:27 The hero blocks villain's spam attacks 2:28 - The hero manages to throw the villain into the abyss, but he's mortally wounded. He lies down living out his last seconds, knowing that he saved the world 2:35 - The hero dies 2:35 - 2:57 - Sudden transition to the hero's funeral in his hometown, a funeral march takes place. The hero died, but will not be forgotten

[@zosonils]

This sounds like a song for what Eridan could have been. I bet somewhere out there in an alternate timeline, he was a really good person. Maybe the Eridan from Beforus was. But the alpha Eridan made pretty much the absolute worst choices at every opportunity and went way past redemption.

[@Shinobi_Fox]

To be honest tho he had a pretty crappy life even as a noble, he spent most of his time feeding Feferi's lusus only to have her flake as his moirail the very moment they got into the session. Feferi said being his moirail was exhausting? I wonder how exhausting it must be spending years killing people to feed your crushes guardian only to have them crap on you after all your effort. And then all of his friends pretty much neglected him (though he was kind of douchey, but it's not hard to see that is posturing for him), save for maybe Kanaya and Karkat a bit, and his own crush started flushing on someone else while neglecting him which would've created some strong feelings of envy and probably lead to Eridan and Sollux's rivalry in the first place... AND THEN Fef tried to kill him after that whole dueling thing. I hold her preeeeetty responsible for Eridans outcome, she didn't have to date him but I felt like she did a crappy thing being moirails with him just up until she got into their session and feeding her lusus no longer mattered, also the fact she didn't even acknowledge him after that, you don't do that to your friends even if they are crushing on you and you're not interested. >= /

[@angeltheweirdo]

@@Shinobi_Fox I guess the one thing every eridan supporters should realize is that both he and fef we’re both at fault. (Dw I also support our Harry Potter fish boy.)

I really love Eridan as a character, and I'd say he's one of my favorite characters in the entirety of homestuck.

He is so much more that that, and he didn't even get half the screentime as some of the other trolls. Sure, he made some mistakes, and he has his flaws but he's just a 13 year old kid under pressure to be a violent, ruthless killer that everyone expects him to be. He's just a kid.

[@MissSharkmuffins]

I agree. It's awful, what the fandom sees him as, when really, he's just a guy who cared very deeply for his friend, had his heart broken, and snapped due to jealousy. He really does deserve recognition and love for all the things he did for Feferi.

[@darthzaida1881]

I would like to point out how good of a character Eridan could have been if he had gotten a redemption arch. Not only was he strong as a person, he had a personality that a lot of fans tend to misinterpret and twist to make him out to be some idiotic needy doofus. But Eridan is a lot more than just March Drag and "wweh." He's a highblood, and one of the most powerful ones at that. I'm being genuine and honest when I say he deserved better. And don't give me that, "But he killed Fef and Kanaya-" Yes, he did. Again, he is a high blood, and was defending himself. And trolls aren't all, "I would never hurt a fly." It's normal for them, and a lot of fans hate on characters when they kill someone, yet it's normal for their race. In summary, Eridan is a pretty cool guy. End scene.

I love Eridan, despite the fact that his heart was in the wrong place, he held strong. I can easily call him pitiful, because I truly pity him. He could have held out longer, without serving anyone in hopes of survival, but he didn't, and that is why he met his fate.

[@lulwsam864]

i have not gotten this song out of my head its been playing on repeat for so long homestly i

[@lulwsam864]

not complaining doe

[@okimatcha]

Is it me or is there a melody that can only be heard with earbuds? Around 1:48

[@nintendokirby64]

I don't know if I have a problem in my phone, but every time I plug my headphones in, I hear a extra tech instrument in somewhere at the end, and when I unplug my ear plugs, I don't hear it anymore.... I don't understand why though...

[@rhi5121]

That happens to me too! The extra bit does sound pretty cool though.

[@nintendokirby64]

Me too. It sound more cooler that way.

[@minxaepugrel5815]

NintendoKirby64 Ihategoogleplus holy shit I thought I was the only one. The tech bit is my favorite part of the song but I could never remember where I heard it bc w/o headphones it's not there o_o

[@McLovinEgbert]

I've noticed how some of the flutes decrease in sound when I have my earbuds in, sometimes they also have this echoed thing going on for some weird reason :|

[@evelyntheidiot6]

with headphones in that actually kinda adds to the music in some places but whatever

[@cronusampora6500]

eridan is extremely precious to me. that is all i have to say on this matter. goodbye.

[@Chibidragon189]

Every time I hear this I imagine a chibi Eridan marching along to the music. >v

[@EbonyDream]

Lol the moment I read that I instantly went to load up my Eirdan shimeji.

[@alitlecreacher6077]

Chibidragon189 I just imagined that and it was glubbing adorabubble! X3

[@cronuspriteampora8313]

I LOVE ERIDAN

Some of you lowbloods are alright. Don't go to the Veil tomorrow.

[@gemmagomez3556]

It's fun to hear elements of a sort of Hope motif and a sort of Prince motif worked in there too :)

[@Madisongs]

I like how this song is a March song You know Because March Eri-

[@paradoxovor]

i sent this song to my band teacher and she really liked it. Now there is a large possibility of us playing this in a concert.

[@handfulofmushrooms1135]

[@sinful0writer]

This is honestly one of my all time favorite tracks. For some reason I just love it, it really suits him so well, and I can just feel the essence of homestuck in it.

[@katiefrisk980]

[@voidnoidoid]

Eridan is actually an amazing character.

[@celestialjunipers6829]

The fanart had the nerve to show a dead eridan...

[@hehekitty9876]

I stopped reading Homestuck 4 years ago, and I admittedly don't like it. Yet after 4 years, this song would sometimes play in my head randomly. It's still one of the few things I like about HS a lot.

[@cyra6821]

Hey Eridan lovers... look on the cover. Look at Kanaya, now look at Eridan. >:D

[@Breaker_Of_Sieges]

Ruby Of The Crystal Gems you disgust me gem. Y U GOTTA HATE ON ERIDAN?!

[@ChopperMD55]

Sollux couldn't dislike something just ONCE...

[@makeshiftmasquerade]

I'm sorry but I still hate how people justify his killing of Feferi and almost Sollux. Feferi could've handled things better with Eridan but still killing is not a justifiable response. I see people in the fandom who love the fact he killed someone who was arguably the love of his life and it's just sad... Mainly because people hate Feferi for this situation, but what else was she supposed to do? Lie to him? Telling him the truth upfront was probably the best way to go with someone as emotional as he is.

[@gremlinswrath2822]

I try not to make excuses for it I just don't like how he's suddenly not allowed a second chance to a few people.

[@pistachio_stick]

Well fef was trying to kill him first; he was only defending himself. Wouldn't you try to defend yourself if someone came at you with a giant trident?

[@makeshiftmasquerade]

@@pistachio_stick If I remember right (it’s been years) Eridan was about to join Noir, so… if Feferi or Sollux didn’t shut his ass down, they all could have died anyway.

[@makeshiftmasquerade]

@@gremlinswrath2822I can agree there.

[@RCVideoDude]

Man, I love band teachers like that. Our director NEVER takes requests. I think he has used to the same songs for us to play for the amount of years he's been teaching. :(

[@ireallyneedhelpnaopls293]

Eridan is my precious baby and I love this song

[@respectable-username]

Is this... a March? A March eridan? 😟

[@madeofsoil6468]

Is it Eridan's theme or Cronus's ?

[@phenolated]

The themes with the Sburb classes (Prince, Thief, Mage, etc) are the beta trolls. The themes with other names (Mariner, Corsair, Pilot, etc) are the alpha trolls/ancestors.

[@madeofsoil6468]

@@phenolated thank you

[@IEqual2D]

Can't... stop... listen... to... this... one! Gosh, it really fits Eridan so well.

[@rachelk.6918]

The Million Eridan Army. YES. GOOD.

[@isupposethisismynmw640]

I’m not an eridan apologist, he was the worst. But I also loved flawed characters, and Eridan is great because of that.

Eridan is one of my favourites

[@OdysseyKayn]

Eridan is misunderstood.

[@XeniyaG]

+timaeusTestifiedAre you talking about the fuckboi eridan, that wants to fill the buckets and wonders why nobody likes him?

[@HetaliaFL]

Omg I love the Ampora's so much! I don't understand why people hate on them. They're both too perfect.

[@aislinghenlo484]

Eridan Malfoy Just felt like saying that because Eridan reminds me so much of Draco lol

[@StarsongAnimations]

Eridan's my favorite character as well as my patron! Not to mention his music is freakin' rad.

[@elderparadoxproject]

I thought this was cronus' theme because I searched cronus' theme and this came up and also this is amazing sounds like going to war music

[@krishnavinesh5638]

wait this isn't cronus's theme?

[@justauz]

My most favorite track! When I played Cronus in Homestuck when I first got to the Beforus trolls I was like "OH MY GOD I LOVE THIS SONG SO MUCH!!!" and I literally had Cronus spinning in circles and dancing to this song for five minutes straight and didn't even stop there. Wow, the memories. I can't wait for the next update on Homestuck.

[@localoccultist1007]

Oh no. Cronus.

[@Chameleonred5]

Ojani Torres Bard of Hope is just the worst title ever.

[@SatoshiS]

As creator of this song and as an ex-marching band member, I, too, am very jealous of you right now. Much appreciated! If you do get to play it, I would love to see it! If you need any help getting scores, obviously I can get you those ;D

[@joshuapatel3502]

Violet prince more like Violent prince.
