(VRISKA): Good fuck. Do you actually think reality gives that much of a shit a8out you?

(VRISKA): Get real, Eg8ert.

(VRISKA): It’s not like you’re me.

Now there’s the ego we all know and love.

KARKAT: HIS RELATIONSHIP IS A FLAMING WRECK OF AN INTERSTELLAR WARSHIP HURTLING TOWARDS THE PLANET AT TERMINAL VELOCITY WITH THE ENTIRE CREW BRUTALLY SLAUGHTERED UPON REENTRY, SHOVED STRAIGHT DOWN THE CHAGRIN TUNNEL AND THEN IMMEDIATELY SHAT OUT THE OTHER SIDE, THUS FLOODING THE ENTIRE FUCKING NEIGHBORHOOD WHEN IT CLOGS UP THE LOAD GAPER.

It’s this kind of content that I’m here for really.

Jade could probably catch him. Actually, she could easily do it, but it doesn’t seem like the kind of favor you should do in a fledgling kismesissitude.

How considerate.

Yeah we’re apparently back.

That is one massive pile of content warnings.

“ROSE: You will need to travel back into canon and defeat Lord English.“

“Travel back into canon” is a great concept.

“ROSE: Just because certain events take place outside of canon, it doesn’t mean those events are non-canon.“

Correct, but confusingly phrased.

“ROSE: I assure you we are all still fundamentally the same bunch of losers.“

Now that is a quote that I predict found its way into a thousand group chats.

I am left with. . . questions. One moment as I pester people.

[somewhere-in-the-medium]

Also, why did it loop? I thought we were done timelooping, as everything worked out and was fixed? Especially why loop back to what looks like the actual beginning?

[somewhere-in-the-medium]

Okay so hang on.

Lord English finds a treasure, opens it, gets mad powers, then later Vriska opens it and gets sucked in/turned into Lil Cal? 

I don’t trust it.

[somewhere-in-the-medium]

Okay John with tiny ectobabies is adorable but I still do not trust this credits thing

[somewhere-in-the-medium]

What do you mean credits

I do not trust you Homstuck

[somewhere-in-the-medium]

I am not actually clear on what got Lord English yet

This is not actually over is it

What do you mean “Thanks for Playing”?

[somewhere-in-the-medium]

Hang on, why does the house use the original kid’s symbols instead of the new kid’s symbols?

[somewhere-in-the-medium]

Animated Vriska has a badass strut.

[somewhere-in-the-medium]

Woah, actual animation and not just a succession of still frames.

This is a change.

[somewhere-in-the-medium]

Bringing an arc to a close. 

Took a bit, but we’re getting there.
