No cause it’s always been “Make her pay” with the Aradia-Vriska-Terezi cycle so the fact if gets reused as “Make him pay” about TC. This is because she is actually also a Her
IT...HAPPENED...LET'S...GET INTO IT...SPOILERS BELOW...OBVIOUSLY...
we get to see some cute little oldspeak jokes with Del's hacking (glomps...), before seeing that Tavvy is seemingly going to be aligned with Del'fi! We saw a very similar panel with Vrissy overlooking Ly'lac, and here's Tavvy doing the same to Del'fi...wonder who Harry and Yiffy will get!!
and here's the big bucks for me. the giant ass TC/Del'fi convo that was teased all the way back during NYCstuck...this is a long one so buckle the fuck in.
TC starts with being pretty friendly, actually. He seems genuinely thrilled that Del is trying to hack in, and doesn't discourage him from pushing further. He tries to banter back and forth, and Del, oddly enough, indulges this. Despite Del seemingly clearly Hating TC.
i do find the "My Ly'ly" bit interesting. Del picks up on it being quite a possessive way of speaking, but I can't help but wonder if TC meant it more in a..."The Ly'lac *I* know wouldn't do that" or something along those lines. I also like how TC is seemingly genuinely excited to be talking to Del'fi at all, realizing there's a chance he can do roleplay with him. He's really trying to make a friend here, which is pretty cute.
Del does try and...flirt, I guess, with TC? Though I think this is just Del trying to weird him out to get him to go away (and it does seemingly weird him out a little bit). TC seems to really agree with doing what ones self wants to do, following one's heart, even?
TC then tries to invite Del to play the game. He reveals he knows a lot about Del's past, and says he can relate, which is interesting. Once again we see here TC putting importance on taking life by the reigns with your own two hands...this is a core belief of his.
I find it funny how TC calls AA "chica" and also seemingly wants to hang with her as friends also. Bud she is not gonna let that happen. We then get some crazy ass TC lore: he knows someone, someone he calls the "Old Man", and that Old Man has servers...servers with very interesting details.
These servers gave TC the knowledge that he, his friends, and the three nymphs, were all going to play the game. TC figured out the nymphs were coming in by doing educated guesswork it seems, something he quite enjoyed doing. He suggests that it was possible for the Old Man to have told him everything, but is thankful that he didn't (again, this is TC's whole "you have to do it yourself or it doesn't mean anything" belief coming into play).
He seems to be super enthralled by surprises. Miracles, even, you could say. The way he speaks about running into Ly'lac is fascinating. This is a special and super cool and entertaining thing to him. To Del'fi, though, he's far less interested and claims it's just a regular happenstance. Nothing special to it at all.
TC tries to convince Del to play further, saying that he belives that Del deserves "so much more" than what he's currently got. He says that it's been a long time since he's last felt this anxious, and that soon he and Del are going to "be free".
Del'fi hits back with Nymphian Doomerism. No, actually, nothing will happen, you cannot change anything, you're just walking along the destined path. Very Rose-like, don't you think? "Well, I'm gonna get shot in the head, so to make that less painful for my loved ones I'll ruin my life and my relationships with everyone around me so they won't mourn me and waste time on me."
This Line Is Interesting.
TC continues to reveal more, saying that Ly'lac showed him things that "saved his life", and points out that the Del/CT relationship is important and matters.
Del'fi is hitting his limit and continues to grow more frustrated with TC, but TC wrangles the conversation back into, essentially, only him talking. He reveals that he is fully aware of the Del/CT relationship, even sneaking into their private RP server to read everything.
This Line Is Interesting.
Once again we have TC's "you have to do it yourself" mentality. He is also clearly trying to leverage the CT/Del relationship so that Del will play.
Del'fi flips the fuck out, vowing to make TC pay...okay Vriska...we then get confirmation that Del's...place of residence, let's say, is certainly alive! And here comes a second HUGE LORE DUMP.
When the Nymphs learned that SHURB would be played, they all instantly just gave up. Many were orphaned. One orphan created this place, and had a weapon of mass destruction (presumably the LIGHTSEED). This particular Nymph sought to end loneliness altogether, and nearly ended the world in so doing. She was pacified and put to sleep, but her only real action since was taking the *meteor Del'fi was on as a baby*.
This confirms that our Deltas are ectobiological babies...and there's a lot more here that I just don't have any more time for, so...um, I'll make more posts later, ok? But YAYYYY TC THIRD CONVERSATION YES!!! YES!!!
oh for all you people here I asked in the homestuck discord like a week ago which homestuck character I’d be. and I got dirk and Swiss so I think I need to blow up everyone forever.
with the a/o/b dynamics we now know more of, 10 boondollars says one of the satyrs (Swiss probably) will assume the candy kids are in a failing one because of how none of them are aligning to what they should be (because theyre not doing a/o/b. not that swiss knows that)
i like when i see an account w the name and pfp of a fictional character and i cant tell if its a DID situation or a roleplay blog or just a trans person whos really committed to their favorite thingbeast
