Ah, thanks for the clarification. I had a strong feeling the 69 thing was on purpose, so it's good that you managed to find another measurement that also works with it.

On the second topic, redoing the troll species is something that I (and probably others) have been meaning to address for a long time now, but we all know how good I am at accomplishing goals. It's kind of a pain in the ass, but unfortunately a necessity if our fictional universe is ever to have any kind of viability on its own and not be a derivative of other works. If there's a silver lining, it's that the character designs might not have to change that much to accomplish this. Some of the portait art for characters like Ellona and Poxten already foregoes some of the Homestuck troll signifiers like orange eyes and horns, while still being recognizable.

Another part of my hesitance with encouraging any sweeping changes to trolls was the fact that you have some of the most involvement in them, as far as characters go. Hank is probably the most canonically important of them, and you probably have developed an attachment to the way you have envisioned him this whole time, which is obviously understandable. It would probably be wise to have some kind of meeting of the minds with regards to a lot of this stuff, but wik- I mean FANDOM doesn't have a lot in the way of smooth multidirectional communication.
