Page of Space: One who Invites Exploitation of Space or one who Invites Exploitation through Space

Pages start with a deficit in their Aspect that they confidently overcome through obvious overcompensation. Their challenge is to keep at it, even if they fail and the journey is slow, for they become the strongest players

A Page of Space would act like they totally have a grip on being random and creative. They would those people that go “OMG IT IS A RAINBOW TACO TURTLE HAHA SO RANDOM AMIRITE =D” to the point of obnoxiousness. Or they would use an overused idea or trope in creativity or fashion and believe they had some cool original idea, even if it’s pretty common and popular. They would have trouble being more open-minded as well, or may not understand how to completely. They might go with what’s popular in the “unpopular” world. To be frank, they’re most likely the people who “hate” mainstream things because they think it’s popular to hate it. They might have problems with personal Space as well.

This makes them easily exploited by people who do have a good grip on Space, often by their own attempts to be like people who they think they should be like, or they think have good grips on Space. Popular art or fashion are common targets for this, off the top of my head I think of people who make awful OC’s (like Sonic) because they don’t have a total grip on creativity or originality or precision to do with canon and things. Don’t be disappointed by this though, not every Page of Space will do the same things and the whole POINT of Pages is they start out this way, but they’re challenged to grow because they don’t give up and keep trying and eventually they master their Aspect. For them, it’s really about gaining experience in their Aspect. They are in no way stuck in these behavior patterns or way of thinking and they can enjoy and do what they do and be successful people.

I believe Pages are the Hufflepuffs of Homestuck to be frank and this is true of all Pages not just Pages of Space. Not everything they do will be immediately awful, and beginner attempts at anything should not be hated or ridiculed. Mistakes should be corrected and the right path shown, but not in a mocking or mean way or it defeats the point of getting better at something. On the flip side, I think Pages have the most potential to be the greatest at what they do out of all the classes. Just never give up and don’t be discouraged by failure! Success never happens without it. Nobody is born perfect.

Seer of Breath: One who Invites Knowledge of Breath or one who Invites Knowledge through Breath

Seers are shown knowledge of their Aspect through its symbolic manifestations, like visions, persons, or magical objects. Their challenge is to be able to translate their insight and knowledge into action and decision.

A Seer of Breath will likely struggle at first with the idea of being truly free and independent. What should they disconnect themselves from? Where should they be indifferent? Which of their freedoms and liberties should they value over others? They would struggle with choosing what they should next, what move they take next, which direction to go, what to say and that sort of thing. They see their paths and options laid out before them and would struggle on the choice itself. They would able to see the path that leads to the greatest freedom and independence, the greatest ability to do things on your own. In comparison with a Seer of Blood seeing the similarities, a Seer of Breath would maybe see the differences between people.

They would see what sets people apart from each other. A Seer of Breath might also get their mystic visions or insight from a literal words on the wind kind of deal, having literal words whispered in their ears by the breeze or maybe even having “A little bird told me” as a great comeback if people ask where they got their info. They would be very good listeners I think anyway and get a lot of their knowledge that way, and also great speakers. They’re very good at using dialogue and speech as a means to an end, like being charismatic sort of people. Or maybe they like to take a bird’s eye view on things every now and again. I think maybe they could see how far away and separated any two people were, or they know and see the distance it would take to get from point A to point B.

Their literal sight could also be something like being able to see immaterial or intangible things like the breeze itself or ghosts and phantoms. They want to know how to be truly free and independent, and they would likely also have lots of knowledge on how to escape from any tether or cage. They are definitely types to direct and guide others’ escapes and are probably great planners of jailbreaks and things like that. As Breath players they are also lighthearted easygoing people, able to turn anything into a joke and most concerned with their and other people’s ability to float along and daydream to their hearts content. Perhaps it’s even through their wandering daydreams that they get their information or ideas as well.
