{Page Title: Homerun Hitter!} {Place: The Field}
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Oh, hello. Greetings, one and everyone. Welcome to me... Homestar! ...Runner! Homestar Runner. Um... what else? I pretty much run the show around here. I date the only girl, I have the only propeller cap. {propeller cap twirls} And can run, and jump, and kick the fastest, highest and like nobody's business. If I had to pick one word to describe myself, it would probably be... Fluffy Puff Marshmallows. Or Homestar. Either one, really. They both fit.
{The next line is chosen at random between the three.}
STRONG BAD: {offscreen} Don't forget "doofus".
STRONG BAD: {offscreen} Don't forget "moron".
STRONG BAD: {offscreen} Don't forget um... "Lionel Richie".
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Yeah, that too. That's another good one. In closing, I look good in red. Check it out. {turns around, sings while shaking his rear} Buttdance, buttda-a-ance!
Homestar's eyes
- Homestar's eyes are quite strange. There are many theories about how they work:
- Sometimes they seem to move around his head. Most of the time they're like a flounder's eyes, but they switch sides of his face whenever he turns. In the Old Intro 2, you can sort of see Homestar's eyes moving as the camera circles around him. Also, in Theme Song Video, the currently absent toon Marshmallow's Last Stand, the old version of In Search of the Yello Dello and the Homestar Screensaver, you can see his face from the front, which further lends credence to this theory.
- His puppet and his two figurines, on the other hand, have eyes stuck on one side of his head. Occasionally you can get a peek at the other side of Puppet Homestar's face.
- The Brothers Chaps actually made the eyes out of felt, so that they can be switched if necessary.
Homestar's Shirt
His shirt seems to most resemble a red skirt with a white star on it. The star can be removed, but Homestar wears it as a mark of pride. Other than his propeller cap, it appears to be his only piece of clothing, as his questionable pants are a mystery. He also wore a gray version of the shirt (still with a star) in impression while doing a bad imitation of Strong Sad.
In the original script for flashback, Strong Bad wore a similar shirt until Marzipan gave one to Homestar (to replace his Duckie Shirt). After this point, Strong Bad would have ripped off his shirt, explaining why he never wore one to this day.
A real-life version of the shirt is available for purchase in the Store.
Homestar & Marzipan
Homestar's relationship with Marzipan seems tenuous at best and has deteriorated as the episodes progress. Though Homestar insults her, often without meaning it, and Marzipan breaks up with him frequently, they seem to patch things up in between. Homestar's idiocy seems to be charmed as well as charming, as evidenced by his lucky gift of wire cutters in Homestar Presents: Presents. It is unclear how their relationship started, but they do seem to care about each other, if only a little bit.
Homestar even appears to miss and need Marzipan's badgering every once in a while. When she was out of town in July of 2005, he carried around a cardboard cutout version of her and provided a voice for it. The cardboard version still made similar comments about violence and Homestar's poor grammar that the actual Marzipan would have, providing Homestar the presumably cathartic opportunity to say "Shut up, Marzipan." Even Homestar's relationship with the "Cardboard Marzi" was tenuous, though, as he voiced her flirting with other men (and The Cheat).
