Homestuck
Davesprite

( Personality ) :

The best place to start is his similarities with Alpha Dave. First, being cool and ironic is a huge thing. He thinks he's the coolest person around. Really, he's kind of a huge dork. Davesprite idolizes his older brother because, to him, his brother is the coolest person on the planet, and also the strongest. He's taught to not show much in the way of emotion, but sometimes it slips, such as when he accidentally kills a crow at his apartment. No one must ever know. Davesprite's also pretty laid-back, taking things at his own pace. Like Dave, it can be hard to tell whether he's being sincere or being ironic. He also has about as good of a memory as him, which is to say that he's sometimes pretty shitty at remembering things (once Alpha Dave forgot he could even time travel). One final similarity is his determination to protect his friends, willingly going back in time to ultimately erase his timeline from ever happening to save them.

Alright, let's get down to the differences. It needs to be established that due to time shenanigans, Davesprite is technically four months older than Dave. That's because he needed to learn as much as he could about Sburb and practice with his Timey Wimey Stuff before going back in time to prevent his timeline from ever happening. He cares a great deal about his friends, since even though his timeline will cease to exist, Jade and John will still be alive. After gaining access to the knowledge Sprites get, he's supposed to be cagey about whatever info he gives to Dave, but he says he "doesnt feel like it."

Davesprite is also more bitter than Dave is. This is mostly seen during his conversation with the Rose from his timeline. However, it's also been seen subtly based on word choices in the alpha time. Really, it's not hard to see why he is. His best friend got murdered, in turn killing his other best friend, and when he saves him John seems to see him as "other Dave." Not to mention the only other person from his timeline, Rose, doesn't quite remember much of it, and is metaphorically dead to him. Adding insult to injury, when Davesprite goes to help Bro out with a fight with Jack Noir, it ultimately fails with Bro dead and himself severely injured. Davesprite deals with Bro's death much like Dave does. He saves his grief for later and stoutly refuses to admit he's grieving. He gets things done, shelving it for when he has the time for it. The readers don't see his reaction to it, but they do see the aftermath, which is getting a sword that Dave needs in order to get their plan to Scratch the session into action.

This leads into another difference with his alpha self. His identity, perhaps the only thing from his timeline that he has left. He appears to tolerate being called Davesprite. However, he doesn't like being called "other Dave." He may well hate it. Davesprite has given John a small piece of his mind for calling him this, and to the reader might have appeared to be greatly upset by it.

He's driven by the need to continue the Alpha timeline to the end of the game, and make sure that his three friends survive it. Mostly, this is seen in how he risks everything to go back in time and prevent John's death from ever happening. His entire time line is erased as a consequence, and he's literally the only one from said time line anymore. He hadn't even been sure that he would be able to self-prototype with Alpha Dave's kernelsprite, but he goes through with it anyway.

( Sample ) :

well shit
im in the middle of playing a shitty game with consorts and 2 humans and what happens
i get dumped in a goddamn bubble city under the ocean
should i go find myself fish mermaid and crab friends so that we can sing about how living down here is way better than being up on dry land
choreographed and everything we dont half ass this shit
forced to eat kelp seaweed and fish in the humane way aka not cooking them and pulling out their bones
sounds like a fucking barrel of laughs
not to mention im sure theres a wet bird joke somewhere in here but fuck if i know or care

so anyway
where the hell am i
this is definitely not a golden ship skyrocketing off to another game session at the speed of light
so what place did i end up taking an unexpected detour off to
if anybody says atlantis i fucking quit
