so when sollux steps up to shut eridan up, eridan's rage is already at a boiling point, and we KNOW he's willing to resort to violence when he loses his temper, we've SEEN IT HAPPEN
similarly funny is how sollux manages to gain the affection of two different women who are both yearned after by the douchiest trolls
sollux, thru no real decision of his own, just cucking dudes left and right
oh hey it's the rifle that eventually goes to the doom bunny
eridan is bequeathing it to jade bcuz he thinks she has a rivalry with rose, but also just cuz he doesn't need it anymore on account of having a fancy new science wand and he doesn't want it to go to waste
i genuinely appreciate how, despite homestuck trying to zoom thru certain parts of the story, it still allows jade to have pages and pages of creating a new inventory, just like the others
i wonder what would've happened if karkat had been chosen as the hero of rage
it's actually interesting to think about how aspects define a character's role in the story, and even more interesting how the kids have taken to their aspects MUCH easier than the trolls
so anyway john's dead
vriska's just happy cuz when SHE kills john he gets to go god tier, but when TEREZI kills john it dooms the timeline
john and vriska's dynamic reminds me of black doom from shadow the hedgehog
anyway dave's awake now
i guess having someone fire a rifle right next to u would wake anyone up
