remember how i said a bard INSPIRES their aspect?? well it turns out the reason why jack noir is so full of hatred for everything around him is bcuz GAMZEE INSPIRED THE RAGE IN HIM
i've decided karkat's cancer line is clever, bcuz this line connecting to it is just perfect
getting back to the story in progress, there is still some interesting stuff going on with gamzee
using his RAGE, gamzee found a way to infect dave's universe to get back at him for the whole icp thin. he implies he's responsible for dave having chronic nightmares, but also...
IN FACT!!! the story actually somehow goes out of its way to OBFUSCATE its intentions! i don't think this is intentional, but if it is then it's a BAD IDEA
specifically what i mean is:
WHAT DOES ANY OF THIS HAVE TO DO WITH GAMZEE'S ANCESTOR
so anyway gamzee makes out with corpses now
i guess u could make the argument he was trying to revive tavros, but that doesn't rly hold water considering some other stuff we see about him. i think he's just a freak
karkat describes the sickness in a very specific way, and i can't decide if i think that is very clever or very stupid given his zodiac sign
the two travel thru john's memories to try and figure out why he can't remember vriska, and they learn it's bcuz THIS john died before he ever met vriska
this is the john that died when terezi tricked him into fighting his denizen
also shoutout to the fuckin rocket unicycle lmao
i dunno why it, or this big pile of clown horns, are in vriska's house\dream bubble when gamzee isn't the one who killed her but whatevs, i'm just glad gamzee did eventually get that unicycle where his feet could reach the pedals
in another side story, john is being contacted by vriska for the first time pre-sburb
but vriska quickly realizes this isn't just a memory, this is a post-death dream bubble
but thankfully after all this talk of plot, the story gives me somthn i can RLY sink my teeth into! a collection of little side stories that flesh out the characters to help u understand where they're at and why
AND U KNOW I'M CLICKIN ON THAT MF NEPETA ONE FIRST
