Homestuck Influence
On multiple occasions, Seth Dickinson has pointed to Watch the Roots, a Feferi Peixes-focused work of Homestuck fanfiction, as a major inspiration for his writing style.[1][2][3]

Fandom
Interactions with The Locked Tomb Fandom
Many fans of The Masquerade series are also fans of The Locked Tomb series and will recommend it to Locked Tomb fans impatient for further installments.[5] Other Masquerade fans, while they might enjoy The Locked Tomb, feel that the series are far too tonally different for them to be usefully compared.
